JaeEun POV

Once I reached Jungkook's room, I opened the door and saw his still body on the bed. While his mouth was hooked to a breathing mask. I slowly made my way over to him and sat down on the bed next to him as there was a bit of space.

"I hope you ok... But I'm guessing you're not ok..." I said with sadness in my tone and as if he could hear what I was saying to him.

I sighed as I took him still large hand into my own, thinking of nothing as it felt as if my mind turned off. I sat there still, listening to the sound of the equipment in the room. But I slowly blocked those noises off and just focused on the rhythm of Jungkook's heartbeat and the way his chest moved up and down.

I finally snapped out of it and placed his hand back where it was on the bed and got up, walking to the large window. I wasn't quite sure what floor we were on, but it was a high one.

I looked at all the cars on the road and thought about where they might be going. I looked at one of the local buses that go all along the city for people without cars. Many were students, and many were elderly people, and many working folks who ride these buses. I thought back to the times I rode these buses with Seokjin oppa to school when I was in 9th grade and he was in 11th grade.

I then looked over to the taxis that were stopped at the side of the road. Not many people were waiting for taxis, so they were starting to pile up.

I turn around as I heard the door open. My first thought was that it was probably the doctor but soon I saw that I was very wrong. I feared this moment as I didn't know how to act or what to say when it came along. In fact, I hadn't wanted to think about it.

I didn't want him to appear in front of me then I would wake up and realize that this was all a dream and know he wasn't actually alive. That he was somewhere lying in the ground.

"Hello, JaeEun...... I was told you changed your name." He said walking into the room. I stood there still, seeing my 'dead' brother after about 5 years brought tears to my eyes. Seokjin oppa walked towards me and my mind was confused whether this was a dream or reality.

I looked up at his face, which had changed from what I remembered it had looked like. He looked more mature and mare handsome. Plus his hair was a dirty blond color, which surprisingly suited him.

"S-eokj-jin o-oppa...?" I said as water spilled out of my eyes and hit my cheeks. "A-are you really here, or am I having another dream?" I quickly looked down at my arm and harshly pinched myself.

He quickly grabbed my hand and pulled me into a warm hug. "I'm here, it's not a dream. Don't worry, I won't leave this time. I promise. And call me Jin oppa, not Seokjin, that sounds too formal."

I nodded lightly into his chest while crying. Alas, it was real, he was really here hugging me in his arms, calming me down telling me everything was ok. As a thought popped into my head, I released from the hug and wiped my tears before asking. "W-wait what happened to Mr. Kim? Did you kill him or did he escape?"

"Haha, I could never kill someone, what are you talking about... But I did shoot him in the leg right before he was right about to shoot you. Plus I brought the police along with me so they took him." He said when I finally realized that we were in Jungkook's room and we might be disturbing him- or not since he was in a coma.

I heard that some people in a coma can still hear and feel what is going on around them but they aren't able to move even their eyelids, I wonder if it's like that for Jungkook. "Come on Jin oppa, let's go back to my room, this is Jungkook's room."

After leaving the room me and Jin oppa talked a lot and cheered me up quite a lot with his jokes. It was night time and Jin oppa went home and I was sitting in my hospital bed. The doctor said I could go home the day after tomorrow but I wanted to stay here so that I could be closer to Jungkook in case he wakes up all of a sudden.

I got up off the bed and went out of the room towards Jungkooks room. I knew visiting hours were over so I waited for the nurse to leave for just the right amount of time so I could see Jungkook.

And I did just that. I got into the room and very quietly shut the door without any noise. I walked over and pulled the chair towards the bed next to Jungkook and sat on it. "I really hope you wake up soon so that I can be sure of my feelings for you. I'm pretty confused at the moment so I would appreciate it if you would wake up so I won't be confused anymore." I said and held onto his still hand as tears were brewing in my eyes, but I didn't cry though I wanted to.

"You know that I met my brother after about 5 years! haha... you would like him he is funny and he takes good care of me,... just like you did." I gave out a small sad smile to him and placed my head on the bed next to him, still holding tightly onto his hand.

"Wake up soon please..."
