The tense silence in the grand office was broken only by the insistent chirping of a cricket trapped behind a heavy tapestry. Jungkook, eyes glued to a financial report, frowned as his phone vibrated on the desk. Across from him, Yoongi, mid-sentence during a teleconference, paused and glanced at his own phone, a similar notification glowing on the screen.

**Jungkook:** (Reaching for his phone) Ugh, what now?

He saw a message from Taehyung with the worrying emoji of a frowning baby. A knot formed in his stomach. Yoongi, sensing his unease, ended his call with a curt dismissal.

**Yoongi:** (Eyes narrowed) What's wrong?

**Jungkook:** (Reading the message aloud) "Jin and Namjoon need you. Namjin had a seizure. Don't panic everything's under control (kind of) but we could really use our favorite uncles."

Yoongi snatched his phone and read Jimin's message, a mirror image of Taehyung's. Their faces mirrored the emojis - worry etched on their features.

**Jungkook:** (Jumping to his feet) We need to get to the palace. Now.

**Yoongi:** (Already grabbing his coat) Agreed. Cancel all my meetings for the rest of the day.

They rushed out of the office, a whirlwind of worry and concern. As they navigated the bustling palace corridors, the weight of the news settled in.

**Jungkook:** (Voice tight) A seizure? How bad could it have been?

**Yoongi:** (Thinking out loud) Jimin wouldn't have called if it wasn't serious. But "under control (kind of)" doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

**Jungkook:** We just need to get there and see for ourselves.

They burst into the nursery, a chaotic scene of hushed voices and worried faces. Jin, his eyes red-rimmed, paced while cradling a sleeping Namjin. Taehyung, looking pale but determined, held a compress to Jimin's forehead as Jimin lay on a nearby chaise, his face drawn.

**Yoongi:** (Rushing to Jin's side) Jin, what happened?

Jin looked up, relief washing over his features.

**Jin:** Yoongi, Jungkook, thank goodness you're here. Namjin had a seizure after eating some new food. Doctor Min is running tests but…

His voice trailed off, his worry palpable. Jungkook reached out and squeezed Jin's shoulder, his own heart heavy.

**Jungkook:** We're here now. How can we help?

Taehyung Smiled weakly he reaches out and rubbed his pregnant belly "See baby daddy is here now so don't worry"

Jimin, with a groan, stirred on the chaise.

**Jimin:** (Voice weak) Just a touch of morning sickness, nothing to worry about.

**Yoongi:** (Rolling his eyes) Coming from the man who just declared himself the "unofficial queen of napping"?

A tired laugh escaped Jimin, a welcome sound in the tense atmosphere.

Jungkook took Namjin from Jin, cradling the baby gently. Namjin, nestled in his arms, seemed peaceful, a stark contrast to the storm of emotions brewing around him.

**Jungkook:** (Softly) Hey there, little warrior. You gave everyone a scare today, huh?

The room settled into a quieter rhythm. The uncles took turns holding Namjin, offering a brief respite to Jin and Taehyung. While they couldn't take away the worry, their presence, their unwavering support, brought a sliver of comfort to the fragile hearts in the opulent nursery.
