FATE: KTH FF V/S JJK FF

part:46

As they went inside the hospital staff swiftly whisked you away from Taehyung's desperate grasp, leaving his arms lingering in mid-air, frozen in a futile attempt to hold on..the very male eyes wide with terror, and it followed your gurney until it disappeared through the ICU doors, the automatic doors shutting like a physical barrier between you and the ones who loved you...The color had drained from his face, leaving behind a haunting numbness, his skin pale and clammy...His lips moved silently, uttering a fervent prayer - "Please, just keep her safe" - as his eyes brimmed with unshed tears. On the other side Jin and Jungkook stood beside him, their faces etched with anguish, their eyes welling up with unshed tears that threatened to spill over and as they weren't enough Just then, Soobin rushed over with hasty steps he looked like still scrubbed in from the emergency procedure, his expression grim and worried just like the other,The four of them stood there helpless and worried, as the minutes ticked by with agonizing slowness.

But what felt like eternity to all when the doors to the emergency room swung open and the doctor in his thirties emerged out, his chiseled features set in a somber expression. His piercing brown eyes, usually bright with warmth, were now clouded with concern. His dark hair was mussed, and his scrubs were wrinkled testament to the long hours he'd spent fighting to save patients'lives. But when he walked towards taehyung's direction his face was an unreadable mask that sent taehyung and another three man heart racing with anticipation and fear. And as he finally approached them, during the time Jin, Jungkook, Soobin, and taehyung exchanged anxious glances as their hearts heavy with foreboding.
Meanwhile the doctor's eyes scanned the group before settling on one person. "Out of you four, who is Kim Taehyung?" he asked as his hand clutching a clipboard while his voice was firm but gentle, hearing the doctor taehyung stepped forward while his voice trembling, his words tumbling out in a frantic jumble. "I...am...K...Kim Taehyung!" he stammered as he answered the doctor while his eyes pleaded for answers and reassurance.
"Doctor...what happened? Is she okay? Is she going to make it?" Taehyung asked the doctor while his voice cracked as expected from him while his body swaying slightly as if the weight of his worry was crushing him. While listening to the very male the doctor's eyes narrowed slightly while his tone measured and cautious. "So, you are the patient's husband?" he asked as he eyes the clipboard probably reading the information and then his gaze fixed intently on Taehyung scrutinizing every reaction from the worried male face... after hearing doctor taehyung nodded fervently, his voice laced with desperation and pleading. "Y..yes, I am her husband!" Doctor "But can you please tell me if she's okay or not? Is she going to make it....or...n.?"taehyung let out being frustrated, he was no where near to calm he feels like his sanity teetering precariously on the edge when he didn't hear any response from the doctor about your health...and the same goes to jungkook but he also feeling a different emotions when he heard taehyung claiming something which was his, yes, the younger male felt a searing pang in his chest and his heart heavy with emotions as he couldn't quite process the proclamation. He badly wanted to deny taehyung's claim and to shout that he had no right to call himself your husband... But the dread of your condition and taehyung's totally different side which he never witnessed silenced him, leaving jungkook rendered mute and helpless by fate, And he did able to notice and not failed to watch how his brother's eyes burning with unshed tears like his,

which somehow settled an uneasy feeling in jungkook's heart. The very thought of losing you seemed to be ripping both men apart, thread by thread.
Meanwhile Hearing taehyung the doctor's expression remained calm and composed like it should!! but his words dropped like a bombshell on the all male who were standing in the hospital, shattering the fragile silence between all of them. "Sorry to say, Mr. Kim taehyung, but your wife's condition isn't okay." The doctor let him know while his voice was firm but gentle. "And that's why I'm here - as you are her family relative, I need your signature on these papers so we can operate her immediately.". after processing doctors words the four men's faces paled in unison, as if the very life had been drained from them....
"O.. operate ..imm...taehyung's voice again cracked, his words faltering as he struggled to form a coherent sentence.... "S...sign? Is...her condition...c...critical?" his voice shattered by fear and before he could finish, someone intervened in conversation breaking everyone's reverie....and yes, it was jungkook who jumped into conversation after enduring long heavy silence which he didn't know how he was able to manage till now, but his emotions erupted while his anger and worry boiling over like a tempest when he heard doctor's words.
