Sanguk stood in his uncle's shop, he swept the floor as he stared out the window and watched people walk past the shop. Today was slow, so slow that Sanguk got all the shop worked finished within the first two hours and usually it took long with customers walking in, interrupting him and at times they would walk through his piles of trash that he swept up then asked him very stupid questions about obvious things.Joey ran past the window into the shop door. The young man practically crashed through the shop door and into Sanguk, Sanguk caught Joey. Sanguk looked at his younger cousin and he rubbed his back as he watched Joey catch his breath. "What's wrong? Why are you running?" Sanguk asked as he looked out the window, he hoped it wasn't the guys that used to give Joey a hard time coming back again.
Joey eyes watered and his lips quivered, as he panted slightly, "Mari... Mariposa, she's at the Crowley hospital something happened to her!" Joey yelled out.
Sanguk dropped the broom and he ran out of the shop door. His mind spinned and he thought of the most horrific things that possibly could have happened to her. He didn't need to ask Joey any further questions, he didn't want to ask him any questions about what happened to her but all he needed to do was get to the hospital.
The thought of something bad happening to Mariposa made him sick to his stomach, she didn't deserve anything happening to her. She was someone that deserved a happy and healthy life, there was not a single bad bone in her body and it made him so angry.
Sanguk head throbbed instantly as he ran down the street, he stopped and looked around and tried to find the quickest way to the hospital.
A taxi rode by and Sanguk waved his hand, "Taxi!" Sanguk yelled and the yellow cab casually rode past and Sanguk cursed out as he rubbed his head as he watched the taxi drive down the road.
A car pulled up on the side of him and Sanguk looked to see Taegyu driving a navy blue ford truck and Joey sat in the passenger seat. "Get in!" Joey yelled and Joey opened the door, Sanguk got into the car and Taegyu sped off.
Joey looked at his older cousin and the fear in Sanguk's face was daunting to see, he had never seen Sanguk this terrified before in his life. Sanguk had broken his arm when they were younger and he didn't even cry then and Joey knew that was the most pain that he had ever felt. He was always so calm, didn't react to confrontation and didn't fear much but for the first time, Joey could see fear in him and a new one finally arose. Sanguk feared more than anything in the world was losing Mariposa.
"Who called the house?" Sanguk questioned.
Joey hands trembled and he swallowed hard, "It was Mariposa's mother. She kept asking for you and she was crying, she kept saying to get you and tell you to come to the Crowley hospital. She said it was Mariposa but couldn't even get her words out," Joey said quickly and Sanguk pulled at his hair as Taegyu sped down the street.
A older lady crossed the street and Sanguk looked over at Taegyu, "야아, 천천히 해 (Hey, slow down)!" Sanguk scolded Taegyu and Taegyu slowed down the car, his gaze lingered to Sanguk as he slowed down at the stop sign. "미안해요, (Sorry)" Taegyu mumbled and Sanguk rubbed his face as he looked out the window.
They finally got to the hospital and Sanguk hopped out of the truck and he ran into the hospital, he ran to the desk where a older woman sat, she typed on her computer with her glasses at the tip of her nose.
Sanguk ran up to the desk and the older lady's eyes cut Sanguk, Sanguk swallowed hard as he tried to catch his breathe, "M-Mariposa Ayala where is--"
"Down the hall, third door to the right," The woman said.
