Hyejin's POV

A familiar yet far away voice yelled my name as I heard the sirens in the background. My whole body was undeniably hurting and it stings.

Trying to open my eyes, a bright light suddenly blinded me from seeing what was happening.

My sight was blurry and I couldn't properly see the person who was currently clutching my hand, tightly. I couldn't really distinguish who it was but I had the feeling that it was someone...that I truly cared about.

His grasp was warm and it made me feel better. My hurting face softened and my body calmed a bit.

"T-taehyung, is t-that...you?"

Taehyung's POV

Bringing her soft hand up to my lips, I gently kissed it as I watched her pale face soften.

"Yes, it's me, Taehyung." I stated, my voice meek and soft yet it quivered. "Can you hear me, Hyejin?"

"T-taehyung..." was the only thing that she could manage to whisper.

"Don't worry, I'm here....beside you." I whispered in her ear, while pressing my lips on her hand once again.

Hyejin's hand trembled as she tried to reach for my face with her other free hand. She started caressing my cheek and I couldn't help it but tear up.

We were currently to inside the ambulance, heading for the hospital.

"I-is Taeho...safe?" she managed between words while coughing and trying to take in air. "Where is he?"

"He's fine..." I responded tight away, holding her hand that caressed my cheek. "Just rest. Taeho is safe."

Without any more words, Hyejin brought her hand back on her side while her eyelids slowly closed as she sharply breathed in another portion of air.

For a moment, I only stared at her, resting bruised bandaged face yet it was still beautiful in my eyes.

A few more minutes passed until we finally arrived at the hospital. The door opened and the nurses immediately rushed Hyejin inside the emergency room for surgery.

I had to wait like a nervous wreck for nearly an hour and it almost killed me. However, small thoughts about Seojun still entered my mind.

Since the last time I saw him was when he got thrown out of the car, I was wondering if he was rushed in the hospital too or did he die?

While waiting, I decided to dial ChanYoung's phone to lessen my nervousness while Hyejin's surgery processed on.

"Yeobosseyo?" his voice puffed frommthe other end. "Taehyung?"

"It's me, Taehyung." I exclaimed while pacing around the hallway back and forth. "What's happening? What happened to Seojun?"

"Seojun...well, he almost died."

"Then, he should have really died." I rotorted back, bluntly without mercy. "So he was rushed in the hospital as well?"

"Yup," he replied and I could hear people talking in the background. "But how about Hyejin? Is she okay?"

"She's undergoing surgery right now." I sighed, finally sitting on a chair.

"That's good." I hard him sigh in relief. "It was lucky how the truck crashed on the opposite side of where Hyejin was sitting on the opposite side of the car, where the truck crashed or else, Hyjin might not have made it."

"Well, then that means it's still not the right time for Hyejin to go."

"Uh-huh." He agreed and I could picture him nodding. "Too bad for the semi-truck's driver, he didn't survive it since he was pretty old."

"We should go to his funeral."

"Right. But okay, I gotta go. I'll talk to you later."

"Arasso. I'm hanging up."

"Mmm."

Just in time as I ended the phone call, I heard footsteps and someone calling my name from the far side of the hallway. Peering up as I stood up, I saw Jungkook, Jimin, Mina and Dfavid running towards me.

"Taehyung-ah!" Mina's voice cried out. "Where's Hyejin? Is she okay? Was she hurt anywhere? Is she hurt badly?! Where is that damn Satan's spawn that kidnapped and tried to kill little Taeho and my dear Hyejin?!" she started shotting me with questions as soon as they reached me.

"Hyejin's undergoing surgery." I sighed, slumping back down on the bench. "Taeho is safe as well. Seojun...he was thrown out of the cat when they crashed-"

"Good for him." Jimin's voice muttered, butting in.

"He almost died and was rushed in the hospital as well." I continued on. "The truck's driver died though."

They all shook they're head including me. Mina bursted into tears while David comforted her. Jungkook and Jimin was sitting on either side of me, waiting for the doctor to come as well.

Few more minutes passed and the doctor finally exited the operating room. We immediately shot up from our seatys and scurried towards the surgeon, whom was taking of his gloves.

"How's Hyejin, Dr. Min?" I asked with great anticipation.

He sighed and forced a weak smile.

"She's fine, Mr. Kim." He replied, scanning all of our faces. "But due to the impact in her head, some of her memories might have been erased."

"But she remembered me when we were in the ambulance!" I argued, not believing.

"Nae. That's true. There's a 90% chance that she can remember you all," he pointed to each of us. "Just as I said, some of her past or maybe even recent memories had been forgotten."

"Will she be able to recall them back?" Mina asked, concern coloring her expression.

"Yes. Luckily, there is a big chance that she might remember them." he narrated. "You just need to give her enough time."

"Thank goodness." Jungkook sighed in relief while clutching don't his chest.

"Now, if I may take my leave." We all made a way for Dr. Min but stopped when he was beside me.

Patting me on the shoulder, he smiled at me warmly. "You're wife is undeniably a strong woman."

After saying those words, he quickly walked away and I watched him until he disappeared in a corner.

"Let's visit Hyejin, will ya?" David asked in smiles.

"Alright."

Hyejin's POV

My head was hurting badly and I could barely move a muscle. Opening one eye, a white ceiling welcomed me with a trickling sensation.

Footsteps could be heard from the distance. My memories were blurry and it wasn't clear enough for me to recognize.

The sound of the door creaking open buzzed my ears and before I knew it, my eyes were getting heavier and heavier until all turned pitch black.

One question, do you guys want Seojun to die or to live and get locked up in the prison forever?
