The baby was taken into the ambulance and rushed off. Jin grabbed Joon's hand, pulling him up. "Cmon. We have to follow them. We have to be there for him. Please." Jin said almost emotionlessly.
Joon stood up, walking with Jin to the car. Jin was going to drive. They started following the ambulance, and Joon called someone. "Hi Joon! What's up?" "Jinyoung, I need you to do a huge favor for me." He said into the phone.
"Anything! What do you need?" "There was an accident involving Jungkook, and the kids are going to be alone. Can you or Jaebum please go over there and comfort them?" Joon begged. "Of course, we'll pray for Kookie." "Thank you so much." Joon hung up the phone.

The parents arrived at the hospital. They'd been there so many times, so much waiting. Joon and Jin were so tired of sitting in waiting room and trying to be patient. What did we do to deserve this? They thought.
A doctor then walked by. He'd worked with their children a lot, and the parents knew that he knew something about Jungkook, so Namjoon stood up and got the man's attention. "Doctor, is there anything you know about our son Jungkook's condition?" He begged. The man shook his head and quickly walked off.
People who were sitting in the waiting room heard what Joon said, and felt a bit of pity. Joon sat down next to Jin and sighed a long, loud sigh. All the two wanted was to never have to sit in that waiting room, but there they were, going through the same thing.
After three long, excruciatingly stressful hours, their name was finally called. They stood up and fearfully shuffled to the doctor. They walked down the hallway in silence. "The condition of your son is.." The parents waited for the news. "Your son is in a coma, Mr. and Mrs. Kim, and we don't think he is going to wake up." The doctor.
Jin buried his face in Joon's chest and started softly crying. Joon wrapped his arm around his back, leaning his head down. "You are each going to get to hold him one last time. I'm sorry..." He said. They followed him into a room, sitting in some chairs. "Mrs. Kim, follow me please." A nurse said, leading Jin into an empty room with a single couch.
They brought the limp baby in, placing him in Jin's arms. Jin cried silently and caressed the child's head and back. Meanwhile, Namjoon was calling Jinyoung. "How are they?" He asked. "They're great. We made brownies and s'mores, and watched some cartoons. How's Kook?"
"Please don't tell the kids yet, but we don't know if he's going to gain consciousness. There's a low chance he ever will." Joon said. "I'm so sorry, Joon. I hope he does wake up." Jinyoung responded.
After a little while, Jin walked back in tears. He sat down as Namjoon stood up and walked into the empty room. The nurse handed the baby to the father and left the room. Joon laid the baby stomach-down on his chest. He stared at his son in tears.
He leaned his head down and kissed the baby on the forehead, still staring at him. Suddenly, the child's arms started moving. He started breathing heavily, then starting to cry. Namjoon gasped and stood up, calling for the nurse.
Several nurses rushed in and took the baby from Joon's arms. Joon ran to Jin and told him what had happened. They impatiently waited there to see if Kook was alive. A doctor rushed in shortly after, telling them the news.
