Next morning - :

The sliding door of the hospital ward opened with a soft whoosh.

Joong stepped inside, dressed sharp and quiet as always, a bouquet of soft white lilies and blue delphiniums in his hand.

Just walked toward the ICU room, where his Friend lay still, tubes and wires tracing across her fragile body.

Through the glass, he saw OHM, sitting beside NANON—eyes half-closed, hand never letting go of his.

Joong watched for a few seconds from outside.

Joong's eyes turned teary as he kept looking at NANON.

_______________flashback______________

Joong tied up in chair inside a dark with dark corners, room with dim lights You wanna take revenge.
But before joong cud say or think Something the man—Don't lie to yourself!... Come on... Make him pay for what he did.. And this time,
Joong's expression finally changed and he smirked to frame.

Joong laughed— really!? You think you can manipulate me to do something like this? *With a sigh joong's laugh turned into something darker* it's true we fought...

*Joong turned silent for sometime but then he broke the silence and spoke* Just because two lions fight, don’t think the dogs stand a chance—one roar, and we’re back to ruling the jungle. *Joong turned to look at Sand* Our fight is family business....don’t mistake it as your opportunity to rise...

*Joong's eyes went to a corner where he saw something different, someone's shadow.. but darker than the all. Joong got suspicious and asked*

Who is it? *Joong's eyes instently turned to face frame with frustration, frustration that he can't see who is this New character? Joong turned again nd looked at the corner but it already wanished from there*

What are you talking about?... You literally seeing things now... You sure, you are okey? *Frame said being sarcastic like he also didn't know who joong was talking about*

*Making a eye intense contact he jerked his tied hands, he was so frustrated in anger*

Untie me... And I'll show you if I'm okey..

*Frame sighed and walked towards the darkness and stopped* since you are no use to us....

*But frame stopped as joong smirked* what?

*Joong spoke giving him dead eyes* You already know.... You have to pay the consequences if anything happens to me...

I know..... *Frame spoke in the most obvious tone,And frame order the guards with eyes to open joong*

____________flashback_end____________

Joong slowly opened the ICU room with its door sound, stepped softly inside with The flowers in his hand.

OHM didn’t look up. His eyes were still on NANON, his thumb brushing over his knuckls.

Joong stood behind him for a moment, then spoke— he looks… stronger Now.

he is—OHM murmured— he’s fighting.

Joong nodded slightly, and put the flowers on the table, glancing around— Where’s Bright?

Ohm gave a tired smirk, not turning.— Downstairs. Went to meet his boyfriend.

Joong raised an eyebrow— He has a boyfriend?

OHM gave a soft chuckle— You think he'd be sitting here if someone wasn’t holding all the chaos behind Bright’s back?

Joong blinked, then let out a small breath of amusement— So the boyfriend’s the real handler?

OHM finally looked up at him—
He’s the one holding the leash, You can say.

Joong impressed, gave a short nod— …Smart man.

*He didn’t ask more, Because in their world, the quieter and calm someone was—the more dangerous they usually were..*

Without turning, ohm muttered,—Why’d you bring flowers?

Joong said giving him a side eye— It’s respectful, you fool.

OHM look up—eyebrow raised, voice dry—he’s not dead, joong!

Joong smirked faintly— Not yet...

Ohm rolled his eyes— You idiot. Next time bring snacks.

Joong chuckled under his breath— Didn’t know the ICU allowed pizza deliveries.

Joong stopped talking for a second, didn't look away from OHM but then spoke with a peaceful smile in his lips.

Om didn’t even turn.

OHM's voice not really soft.
Yeah, I know. You’ve already told me that, remember?

Joong crossed his arms, not expecting that reply.
I’m not talking about that change.

OHM paused.

Joong’s voice softened a little.
I’m talking about… the other one. The one I haven’t seen in years.

OHM slowly turned to look at him.

Joong met his eyes with something steady—
You’re not getting darker, ohm. You’re starting to remember who you were. Slowly, yeah But still...

OHM scoffed, looking away— Don’t.

Joong said simply— I’m just telling you what I see.

OHM stared down at NANON again, jaw clenched.

…Then maybe I’m starting to hate who I was too.

Joong smirked—
You never hated him. You just forgot him...

OHM stayed Silent, he didn't respond, he couldn't because somewhere he knew joong was right.

OHM got up. pulled the blanket higher over nanon's shoulders, gently tucking it around his like he might get cold.
Joong noticed. Didn’t say a word, but a quite small smile tucked in his lips.

As OHM turned to joong—

Beep!

A soft beep from the monitor changed.

OHM’s head snapped up instantly.

Joong froze too, his expression changed.

They turned at the same time toward NANON —eyes locked on the screen.

The numbers hadn’t spiked. But they’d shifted.

Everything was too fast for them to react on.

And then a low grab on OHM's index finger. OHM's breath stucked in his neck.

NANON grabbed his index finger being unconscious. And then a really low tone came out of OHM's mouth.

Nanon....?

he didn’t wake. But his eyelids flickered, his hand moved. His hand were still grab his low strength on OHM's hand like even he was unconscious but he knew that his protector was with him... And he still didn't wanted him to go.

___________
OHM was still so amused to speak something, he was keep looking at NANON like everything else got blurred to him, like he didn't wanted to focus on anything else than NANON's touch after days...

Joong moved toward the door. —I’ll go get the doctor!
