Fallen

Five years ago

It was 10 pm when the busy streets of Busan halted due to an accident. A teen probably in middle school was hit by a truck and is in a critical condition. The blare of sirens can be heard approaching the scene as people gather to check what happened. The boy was taken to the hospital as he struggled for his life. Meanwhile, "Honey dinner is ready" an old lady shouted as she walked outside of the house. "What are you doing outside at this hour?" The lady said. "I'm waiting for that kid he should've been here hours ago," the old man replied. "Ei you worry too much I'm sure he's just out with some of his friends. Come let's eat," they both went into the house and started to eat. Halfway across dinner, the couple was interrupted by a knock on the door. "I'll get it," the woman said. As she reaches for the doorknob a cold wind blew over her sending chills over the body and that precise moment she knew something was wrong. She opened the door to find a police officer on their doorstep. "Excuse me ma'am is this where this boy live?" Said the police officer as he held a school Id up. "Yes, he does is something wrong officer?" The woman asked. "Are you his guardian?"  The police officer asked. "I'm his grandmother why?" "I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news but you grandson was involved in an accident he is in the hospital right now in a critical condition please come with us." At this moment her husband approached her and asked what is wrong. She holds on to him as she felt her knees getting weak. Her husband held her as they were ushered by the police to their car. They were traveling for about an hour and a half before they arrived at the hospital. The old couple immediately ran over to the hospital's reception and asked for their grandson. As they are told that he is in the ICU they ran right away to him. They were met by the doctor who examined him and gave them a rundown of his condition. "His vitals are stable now but I'm afraid he is in a coma and we're not sure if he will wake up again. As of now, we will continue to monitor his condition," the doctor said.

At this, the old woman cried in her husband's arms. "Can we see him?" Her husband asked the doctors. To which the doctor nodded mentioning to enter just one at a time. After putting on the scrub suit, cap and face mask the old woman entered the room. She seated beside the bed and clasped her grandson's hand and cried. 2 years have passed but his condition did not improve it was at this point that his grandfather approached the doctor and asked for help. "I have a colleague who can help you but he is currently in the states. I can connect with him for you," the doctor said. "Please we will do anything to have our boy back, money is not a problem we can cover the cost," the grandfather replied. Two weeks passed and the preparation for the transport of their grandson is done they will be traveling from Korea to the United States to get his treatments done. The boy undergoes various tests to figure out exactly what is wrong. They don't see any damaged internal organs. His wounds already healed up and his skull fracture has already mended. But why does he stay in a coma?

Present time

"It has been five years now doctor how is my grandson doing?" Grandfather asked. The doctor let out a sigh and answered "we have done everything we can for him but Jackson doesn't seem to respond to any of it. We cannot figure out what is wrong with him."

Meanwhile, in Korea, "I'm running of time I have to tell Mark the truth," Jackson said.
