Serendipity

Everyone rushed to Seoul Multispecialty hospital ignoring the media that was hounding them. They rushed to the reception where Eileen was standing who ushered them to the floor where operation theatre was set. "Eomma...", Hoseok ran as he hugged his mother and cried. Everyone was in a mess. Jae hugged her son and cried. She looked at Jin who ran to hug her. Jae took her sons in arms and was wailing loudly. Joon walked towards Hoseok. Joon placed his hand on Hoseok's shoulder who hugged his husband and cried in his arms. "It's okay, Hobah. He will be fine. He is a fighter."

"How's appa?", Hoseok asked hiccupping in-between sobs.

"He is still in operation theatre. He heard a heart attack. I don't know what to do." Jae began sobbing loudly.

"He will be fine, Eomma." Jin consoled his mom. This was a sudden turn of events. Jin didn't predict this.

They sat down in the waiting room not knowing what to do. The situation was too delicate to handle and no one knew how to deal with it.

After a few hours, the surgeon, Dr. Song emerged from the room.

"Doctor, how is my father?" Hoseok ran towards him.

"As you know he had a heart attack. He is out of danger and his condition is stable now..."

"Can we see him?", Joon asked.

"Not right now. He is unconscious. It will take time for him to wake up."

Joon nodded. "You can visit him once he is in the room. Right now, we are shifting him to the ICCU", the doctor said.

"When will you move him to the room?", Hoseok asked his voice filled with fear and concern.

"Tomorrow. Right now, he is on observation. We cannot permit anyone else except me or medical staff." Doctor Song said strictly.

"Okay. I will be here", Jae said.

"No Eomma, I will stay back. You should go home", Hoseok insisted.

"No. Hobi. You go home. I will be here, he is my husband", Jae said.

"But Eomma"

No buts Hobi...Go home. I will be here", Jae reinstated.

"Doctor, please inform me once you move my father", Hoseok said sadly.

"Of course. But bear in mind that he is still under sedation and if he gains consciousness, he might try to speak and we don't want that. We don't want him to take any kind of stress." Hoseok nodded as Dr. Song advised him.

Jackson said they could investigate Hoseok, Jin and Joon later. After all, they were at the hospital. The situation was sensitive. But Hoseok wanted answers. Plus, he wanted Jimin out. So after sometime, Joon called Jackson and said they will be at the police station much to Jin's annoyance.

Jimin was waiting in the interrogation room when Jackson arrived with some files. He wanted to tell Jackson that he had nothing to do with it regardless what they found at his home. "Just because you found it in my room doesn't mean I did it. Someone planted it. And I know who it is."

"Who", Jackson asked.

"Jin....I am sure its Jin. He is behind all this", Jimin barked. Jackson knew in all his heart that Jimin won't do it. Joon had already warned him about Jin but right now he needed to keep a close eye on Jimin as well since he is a suspect. Never once in his life did Jackson think he and Jimin would be on the opposite sides of law. "Why would Jin do this?" Jackson asked calmly.
