      You cannot erase the things that you have done to me. You wrote it all over my body so a simple, "I'm sorry" won't fix a thing. This is something that can only go away with time but so you know, even then, it will leave a faint scar that I will forever remember.

Jungkook's P.O.V

   Pulling out my phone, I pressed a number and watched as red residue spread over my phone. It was so much of it that it was seeping out. No matter what I did, I couldn't stop it from running out. "Come on. Pick up!" I could barely breathe and my vision was coming and going.


   Every ounce of my body was aching like I had just been hit by an oncoming truck. I hung up and tried it again. This time, on the first ring, it was picked up. "Yes Jungkook?" A woman soft and calming voice rang out in my ears. "O-oma." My voice was raspy and every time I said something, it came out in shorten breaths. I heard what sounded like a chair clattering against our hard wood floor.

"Why!? What's wrong with your voice?" She sounded like she was panicking and I hated it but I had no choice. Dad was at work; my brother was in the army and I knew that today was her day off. My consciousness was about to leave me, I could feel it. I forced my voice to come out, no matter how much it hurts. "I can't. It hurts to much. Please. I need you." That was the end for me. The phone fell from my hand and my head fell to the side.


"Jungkook? Jungkook!" I could hear her voice but it sounded so far away. "Hold on baby, I'm coming!" and then I heard a dial tone. I was blanking out quicker. My mind leaving and coming. My vision was leaving me, and I was starting to see blurry objects in front of me. I wanted to hold on till my mom got here but I don't think I can. I honestly don't remember what happened, even if I did, I can't think right now. My brain feels like its having a meltdown.

   Someone was talking but it sounded far away. My body hurt, and I felt like every bone in my body was broken. My body felt so heavy. Like when you feel light in the pool but when you try to get out of it, the water is weighing you down. I tried to lift my arm but I had not an ounce of strength. I tried opening my eyes but it was like someone glued them shut.


   Why does my body feel like this? I feel like I was hit by an oncoming truck that was speeding down the road. The voices that sounded muffled started to come closer. "I think he's waking up! Jungkook!" I felt myself being shaken by the shoulders. "Sir! Calm down. This won't help him. So please, leave the room. I will come and get you when he's fully conscious."


   "But..." The man stopped talking. I don't know what the lady did to make him leave but he gave up and left the room. Sighing, I heard the nurse walk back over towards me. "Jungkook. Can you hear me?" I wanted to answer her but I couldn't find my voice. "I saw your eyes moving so can you opened them for me?"

   I wanted to comply to what she asked me. I really did but I just can't find the strength in me to do it. "Please try harder for me Jungkook. You need to look at me because... because..." she stopped talking and it made me curious as to what she wanted to say. I heard her quiet voice once again. "I know you probably don't have it in you right now to do it but try for me. You really need to be fully awake."

   She sounded like she wanted to cry. I don't want her to cry so I dug deep in my body to find strength. Whether or not how small, I got to use it. I kept moving my eyes back and forth to make them open but my eyes were fighting me. Come on Jungkook. Open your eyes! It's not that hard.  I felt my eyes twitching and they opened. Slowly but they were surely opening.
