The sterile, white walls of the hospital corridor seemed to close in on Jungkook as he sat there, his hands trembling, waiting for any news about Taehyung. The minutes felt like an eternity, and the anxiety in the air was palpable. Every passing second was filled with a silent plea for Taehyung's well-being.

Finally, the doors to the operation theater swung open, and a doctor emerged. Jungkook stood up abruptly, his heart pounding in his chest. The others joined him, their eyes searching for any sign of hope in the doctor's expression.

The doctor, clad in surgical scrubs, approached them with a solemn demeanor. "Mr. Jeon?" he addressed Jungkook.

Jungkook nodded, barely able to speak. "How is he? Is Taehyung okay?"

The doctor took a deep breath before delivering the news, " I'm Dr. Lee. The surgery was successful, but it was a complex procedure. Taehyung sustained serious injuries, and he's in critical condition. We managed to stabilize him for now, but he'll need time to recover. He's in a coma now, and we'll closely monitor his progress. The next 24 hours are crucial. We'll do everything we can."

Relief and tension mingled in the room as the weight of uncertainty lifted slightly. Jungkook's shoulders sagged with the release of held breath, but the gravity of the situation remained. Jimin clutched Yoongi's hand, their intertwined fingers a silent reassurance.

"Can we see him?" Jungkook asked, his voice filled with urgency.

The doctor nodded, "He's in the intensive care unit. Only one person at a time, and please keep it brief. He needs rest."

Jungkook didn't waste a moment. He followed the doctor through the sterile corridors until they reached the intensive care unit. The sight of Taehyung lying in the hospital bed, surrounded by machines and monitors, was both reassuring and heartbreaking.

Taehyung looked pale, his face adorned with bandages. Tubes and wires connected him to various devices, monitoring his vital signs. Jungkook approached the bed, his eyes filled with a mixture of gratitude and concern.

Gently, he reached for Taehyung's hand, careful not to disturb the medical equipment. "Hey, Angel. You made it through. You're strong, and you're going to get better, okay?" Jungkook whispered, his voice choked with emotion.

"Please just, please baby wake up soon.", a lone tear slipped from his red eyes.

The room was filled with the rhythmic beeping of machines, a constant reminder of Taehyung's fragile state. Jungkook stayed by his side for a moment, silently sending all the love and positive energy he could muster.

The hospital corridor echoed with hurried footsteps and the distant hum of medical equipment as Taehyung's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kim, rushed toward the emergency room. Their faces were etched with worry, lines of concern etched deeper than usual, as they clutched each other's hands for support. Namjoon, having made the call that no one ever wants to make, stood anxiously near the entrance, his eyes filled with a mixture of sympathy and dread.

As Mr. Kim pushed open the double doors leading to the emergency room, the antiseptic scent mingled with the charged atmosphere. The harsh fluorescent lights overhead seemed to intensify the gravity of the situation. Mrs. Kim's eyes darted around, searching for any sign of their beloved son. Namjoon approached them, his expression somber.

"Namjoon, where is Taehyung? Is he okay?" Mr. Kim's voice trembled with a father's concern, his eyes pleading for reassurance.

Namjoon took a deep breath, his eyes reflecting the weight of the news he had to deliver. "He's in critical condition. The doctors are doing everything they can. Jungkook is with him."
