I looked at Siwoo, who had an amused smile as he nodded.

"Yes. They could both fly. Your mom can too, but only with wings. She usually hides them, but if she ever has to use them, she shrinks and they come out. Suyung is the same way. You are too, once you remember how."

I was unsure of how to respond so I just stayed silent. A moment later, Samuel poked his head through the door. "She's awake, but she's still in critical condition."

Slowly, we all went back into the living room. They told me to go first, so I happily obliged as she was my best friend. I sat nearby slowly. "Hey Suyung...you okay?"

She sat up very slowly. Suyung was obviously in pain, but she smiled anyway. That's something I always liked about her. She never let pain whether physical or emotional change her at all. She would always smile through it all. "Don't worry about me. You know I have high pain tolerance. I'm more worried about you. How are you feeling? He didn't hurt you, right?"

I just stared at her for a moment. "What are you talking about 'he didn't hurt you, right'? It's clear that you're in worse condition than I am, so don't worry about me. I understand that your job since we were kids was to protect me, but take care of yourself first. When you're in this condition, how could I even think about whatever pain or injuries I have?"

"As long as you're okay, this wasn't in vain. I wouldn't be able to face your mom if something happened to you, especially when it's my fault your in this dimension." Suyung voice broke slightly. "I can pull through this. This is nothing for me. If Samuel is helping me through it, I'll be fine."

"Ah...about that..." Samuel scratched the back of his neck. "Suyung, it might take a while for you to be healed enough to fight. Two weeks at least. Maybe even two months."

"Two months?! What if he comes back before then?! As much as I love you guys, a bunch of wolves and one goblin is not enough to defend y/n from him!" Suyung sat up sharply. So soon as she did, she started a coughing fit. As she did, Taeseon ran to get her a cup of water. When he returned, she was still coughing harshly...blood coming from her mouth in the process.

Hey guys! I'm gonna be honest, this is entirely improvised right now. Please don't hate me, and I'm sorry this chapter is a bit shorter than past ones.
