Taehyung stumbled through the streets, his mind clouded with pain and betrayal. Tears blurred his vision as he wandered aimlessly, oblivious to the world around him. The city buzzed with life, but to Taehyung, it was a dull hum, drowned out by the deafening roar of his thoughts.
Suddenly, a blaring horn shattered the silence, followed by the screech of tires. Taehyung's heart lurched as he looked up, his eyes widening in horror. A car careened towards him, its headlights piercing through the darkness like daggers.
Time seemed to slow to a crawl as Taehyung's instincts kicked in. He tried to move, to dodge out of the way, but his limbs felt heavy, unresponsive. The world spun around him, a dizzying blur of colors and sounds.
With a sickening thud, the car collided with Taehyung, sending him flying through the air like a ragdoll. Pain exploded through his body as he crashed onto the pavement, the impact knocking the breath from his lungs.
For a moment, everything went silent. Taehyung lay there, his vision swimming, his mind a haze of confusion and agony. Then, the pain hit him like a tidal wave, fierce and relentless.
He tried to scream, to cry out for help, but no sound escaped his lips. Blood pooled around him, staining the pavement crimson, a stark reminder of his mortality.
As he lay there, teetering on the brink of consciousness, memories flooded his mind. Memories of happier times, of laughter and love. Memories of Sehun's smile, now tainted by betrayal.
A single tear rolled down Taehyung's cheek as he whispered a silent prayer. He prayed for forgiveness, for redemption, for a chance to make things right. But deep down, he knew that some mistakes could never be undone.
In his final moments, as the darkness closed in, Taehyung found solace in the knowledge that his suffering would soon be over. And as his eyes drifted closed, he welcomed the embrace of death, a bittersweet release from the pain of his shattered heart.

As Taehyung's eyes fluttered open, he found himself in a room that felt oddly unfamiliar. Confusion washed over him as he tried to make sense of his surroundings. The walls were painted a different color, the furniture arranged in a different layout. It was as if he had stepped into an alternate reality.
He sat up slowly, his head spinning with a mix of disorientation and realization. Memories flooded back to him in a rush, like a movie playing in fast-forward. The accident, the betrayal, the inexplicable journey back in time—it all came crashing down on him like a tidal wave.
With a jolt, Taehyung realized that he wasn't just in a different room—he was in a different year. The pieces of the puzzle fell into place, forming a picture he had never imagined possible. He had been given a second chance, a chance to rewrite the past and change the course of his destiny.
But as the initial shock wore off, a wave of uncertainty washed over Taehyung. What year was it? How much had changed since he last opened his eyes? And most importantly, what would become of the life he had left behind?
He reached for his phone, fingers trembling as he unlocked the screen. The date stared back at him, confirming his worst fears. It was several years earlier than he remembered, a time before the accident, before the betrayal, before everything had gone wrong.
Taehyung's mind raced with a million questions, each more pressing than the last. How had he ended up here? Was this some kind of cosmic joke, or had fate intervened to grant him a chance at redemption?
As he struggled to make sense of his new reality, Taehyung's thoughts turned to those he had left behind. Sehun, Ji-eun, Jungkook—they were all a part of his past now, a past he was determined to change.
But as he pondered his next move, a sense of determination welled up inside him. He may not have all the answers, but he knew one thing for certain—he wouldn't waste this second chance.
With a steely resolve, Taehyung pushed aside his doubts and fears, focusing all his energy on the journey that lay ahead. Whatever the future held in store for him, he was ready to face it head-on, armed with the knowledge of the past and the strength of his own convictions.
And as he stepped out into the unknown, Taehyung felt a glimmer of hope ignite within him—a hope that, against all odds, he could make things right and find his way back to the life he had always dreamed of.
