Time 1:02 Am
The chaos of the bar bled into the streets, the air heavy with the wail of sirens, a relentless reminder of the night's horrors.
Taehyung's heart raced as he burst through the entrance, his breaths coming in sharp gasps. The scene before him felt surreal, like a twisted nightmare from which he could not wake.
Guards rushed past him, faces grim, their movements frantic as they ushered the wounded toward the waiting ambulances.
And then he saw her.
Ria lay on a stretcher, her body still, the stark white of the sheet contrasting with the crimson that stained her hair and skin.
Panic surged through him like an electric shock. "Ria!" he called, his voice a choked whisper, breaking against the chaos. Time felt suspended, every second stretching painfully as he pushed through the throng of people, desperately seeking her.
He reached her just as the medics loaded her onto the ambulance One of them glanced up, a brief moment of eye contact that was as cold and clinical as the instruments in their hands.
"She needs immediate attention," they said, their voice firm, devoid of comfort.
"Where are the other people?" Taehyung asked, the worry clawing at his insides.
He remembered Anya, he didn't saw her anywhere ,all he hope is she is okay "Are they okay?"
"Three girls seemed to be unconscious, but one girl had blood dripping from her head. They were taken to MedStar Hospital," the medic replied, barely pausing as they prepared to close the ambulance doors.
Taehyung's heart plummeted, fear spiraling within him. "We need to be quick," the medic insisted, urgency creeping into their tone as they continued their work.
"Please!" Taehyung pleaded, his heart pounding against his ribcage like a caged animal.
"Let me stay with her! She needs me!" His voice rose, desperation seeping into every word.
The medic hesitated, glancing back at Ria, whose eyes fluttered open, only for a moment, but the connection was palpable. "Tae-" she whispered, her voice barely audible.
He leaned closer, grasping her hand, feeling the warmth of her skin despite the coldness of the night around them.
"I'm here, Ria. I'm not leaving you," he promised, his voice shaking with emotion.
"Stay with her," the medic finally relented, knowing the power of familiarity in moments of terror. "But you need to sit in the front. We can't have anyone else in the back."
Taehyung nodded, relief flooding through him. He quickly climbed into the front seat, his gaze fixed on Ria as the medics worked swiftly in the back.
The siren wailed, blaring into the night, drowning out the sounds of the world outside.
"Hold on, Ria. Just hold on," he whispered, willing her to hear him, to fight through the haze of pain and confusion.
