Author pov-

"Her vitals are normal now, but we still need to keep her for 2 days for observation", doctor said while checking Aera's pulses. Everyone nodded, even though they want to take her home so badly, but right now her health is more important. 

When doctor went out, Aera looked towards her parents and said softly, "Why don't you guys go home?? I am fine now. You all should take some rest na". They all smiled at her carefulness. 

"No I want to stay with my princess", Lily said while caressing her forehead lovingly. Aera smiled.

 "Yes I will also not go", Deji said and sat beside her. Jungkook smiled "appa aomma, I am here with her you all should go home". After much pressurizing, finally they went home but Jungkook stayed behind. He closed the door and went towards her. 

"Amm you should also-", before she could finish, Jungkook shushed her by keeping his index finger on her lips. 

"I am not going anywhere doll", he said huskily. Her breath hitched hearing his deep voice and she quickly nodded her head, unable to handle his closeness. He slowly moved his hand towards her cheeks and caressed it. He started leaning towards her but suddenly his phone started ringing, breaking their sweet moment. He cursed and looked at his phone. It was his P.A. He was about to cut it, when Aera stopped him, "it must be important Koo, go and talk to him NICELY". Jungkook hesitantly nodded and got out to take the call due to network issue. Aera shook her head and chuckled seeing his scowled face. 

(How can someone be so cute??), She thought.

Aera closed her eyes to rest when a soft knock came from the door, "come in", she thought it would be her nurse but to her surprise it was Lucas. He smiled sheepishly and waved towards her. She too smiled and told him to come inside. Her smile broadened when she saw that he was not alone. Laura was also there with him. In a very short amount of time they both have become good friends.

"What are you guys doing here?? How do you got to know I am here?? How are you Lucas??"

"Hold on hold on sweet angel take some breath will you??"

She chuckled at his exaggerated words.

"Well, I can't believe you love me so much, that you decided to give me company at the hospital", Lucas said, sarcasm dripping in his voice. Aera just rolled her eyes.

"Oh come on Lucas, by the way How are you Aera??", Laura asked gently while sitting beside the bed.

"I am perfectly fine, don't worry guys", Aera beamed at them.

Lucas rolled his eyes and said, "perfectly fine my foot, you literally gave all of us a mini heart attack".

"I am sorry I have worried all of you na", Aera said keeping her head down.

"No darling, don't take Lucas's words seriously, actually we all just got tense, you were in coma for 1 week, it was a lot to take"

Aera's eyes widened and she almost shouted "1 WEEK".

"Yup", Lucas said nodding to himself. Aera was looking at them like she got a 440 Walt of shock. "But why the hell nobody told me before, not even Koo, hell not even the doctor".

"Well your Koo must have warned the doctor"

Aera blushed hearing 'your Koo'.

"He-he is not mine",

Both Laura and Lucas rolled their eyes. 

"Ya ya tell this to someone who is blind", Lucas said mockingly.

"Amm what do you mean??", Aera asked in confusion.

"Look Aera, we have seen the way you talk about him, so filled with love", Laura said. 

"And when you were in here, motionless, we have seen how broken your Koo was", Lucas said.
They both told her how broken Jungkook was, how he spent all his time beside her, how he cried holding her hands, how he requested her to wake up everyday. Aera was crying thinking about the torture he endured. She was feeling guilty for making him suffer. 

"I-i didn't knew he-he suffered so much", Aera said in a broken tone.

"Don't cry please sweet angel", Lucas said softly.

"My Koo is everything for me, I-i never want-ed to see him in-in pain, but see I-i am the one who caus-ed him so mu-ch pain".

Lucas and Laura looked at each other and smiled knowingly. Love comes without telling you, but the uncertainty of its realisation is the most difficult thing.

"You love him right", Lucas said smilingly.
Aera looked at him in shock.
"I-i don't-"
"We can see it in your eyes Aera", Laura said.
"But how can i-"
"Ask your heart sweet angel", Lucas said.

Jungkook pov-

I cut the call, highly irritated by these idiots. Why the hell did I appointed a bunch of donkeys as my employees?? Pinching the bridge of my nose, I head back to my doll's room. I was about to open it, when I heard voices from inside. Who is inside??

I peeked to see another duffer. I clenched my jaw. What the hell is he doing here?? Doesn't he love his life anymore?? I was about to enter when I heard them talking,

"How did you guys know I am here??", My doll asked

"Oh when I came to collect Lucas's discharge papers, I heard about a major accident, at first I thought to ignore it, but then when I heard your name, I quickly rush to get the info, that's how we got to know you are here", a girl said, whom I didn't saw before.

"Sweet angel you need to be back in your original form, we want our Aera back", that idiot said grinning like a 5-year-old kid. My fist is ready to punch his shitty face. But seeing my doll laughing at his words is a punch to my own guts.
Shit, why doll why??
I was about to leave when the next words of my doll made a smile broke to my lips

"Lucas focus more on your girlfriend not on me, will you??"

"Oh of course, Laura, my love, my life will always be my number 1 priority", that boy named Lucas said while kissing the back of that's girls hand whose name is Laura, I guess.

"But you are my little sister, so obviously I care about you", he again said giving a concern look to my doll.

"Thanks brother, now you guys should leave, it's already late and be safe on the way home", my doll instructed them like a kindergarten teacher. I chuckled at her cuteness. How much I have missed her??

"Ya ya mother we are going, but Aera think about our early conversation with your heart this time", that girl Laura said.

'Early conversation', what was it?? And why did my doll started blushing so much?? Her cheeks have turned into a beautiful shade of crimson red. God, she's beautiful.
