ANGELIC [shortstory]

CHAPTER TWO

"Here we are." Yoongi said while pointing at their dorm room. "I'll take you inside. Oh. And be ready to see a lot of confused faces and questions."

"Ok. So all my friends are in there?" Tae asked, heart beating of excitement.

"Yep. Well, most of them. I'll take you to the other three later on. They are somewhere else at the moment." Yoongi said and opened the door.

They walked in and a warm feeling washed over Taehyung. He looked around, taking in all his surroundings. It all feels familiar. Something about this place feels so dead.

"I'll go call them. Stay here." Yoongi said, disappearing into one of the rooms. Taehyung took in a deep breath. Yoongi is back and he brought two people with him. They both spotted him at the same time and stood so still, a slight breeze might knock them over. They both ran straight into him, hugging him so tight he thought he might choke. After they hugged him, they stood in front of Taehyung with big smiles and shiny tears in their eyes.

"Taehyung, you're back!!" they exclaim in unison.

"There is something you should know though." Yoongi said, looking over at Taehyung. "Tae doesn't remember anything from the past, but we'll get to that later. Tae, this is Namjoon and Jin. Jin is the eldest and Joonie is the leader. Can you remember?"

"No..." Tae said in a sad voice, dropping his head. Though, there is a little light in his head that got a little brighter when he saw them, when he came here. It feels like he is starting to remember.

Their expressions changed from happiness to a mix of confusion and sadness. There was a long pause before Yoongi said, "I think we should get going to see the other members."

Before they all left, Namjoon told Taehyung to put on other clothes first, because he was still wearing the off-white material he wore when he woke up in the dried-up pool. Jin quickly helped him to pick the right clothes. Jin went to pick some clothes from Taehyung's closet, still filled with his clothes. Tae stepped out with a pair of jeans, a plain Gucci shirt, Gucci sandals and a pair of sunglasses. He also put in some Chanel earrings. Now they are all ready to go. They all walked out of the dorm and got into the car. The ride was very quiet and tense. After what seemed like forever, they got out of the car that now stood parked before a huge, white building. Tae looked out the window and read a sign that said, 'Hospital for Mental Issue Patients'. A frown appeared on his forehead and tilted his head to look at the building again. He thought by himself 'What are we doing here? What happened?'

As they were entering the hospital, Taehyung's heart started to beat faster and faster. They reached the cold, metal door, almost afraid to open it. Afraid of what they might see. Namjoon took a deep breath and pushed the doorhandle down after he took a glance at Tae. His heart shipped a beat. Tae's eyes sneaked around the corner and widens at the sight. On the two rusty beds, lies two bodies he knew once, maybe not so long ago. One of them sat upright on his bed. Then he said, "Hi guys!! Kookie just quickly went to the bathroom, he'll probably be back soon." His eyes landed on Tae. He rubbed his eyes with his fist and then gasped loudly after he squinted for about four seconds. While he jumed off the bed, the person on the other one also got up and also moved towards Taehyung.

"Tae, this is Jimin," Yoongi said while motioning with his hand in Jimin's direction. Jimin ran up to Tae with all his strength and hugged Tae as tight as he could. He suddenly started crying, tears falling on Tae's shoulder, leaving wet marks on his shirt. Words escaped Jimin's mouth saying "I missed you... please don't leave again"

Jimin let go of Tae and went back to sitting on his bed. "That's Jhope or you can just call him Hobi," Yoongi said. As soon as Jimin sat down, Tae was embraced by Jhope. While holding Tae, Hobi was jumping up and down with a face filled with emotion. Happiness, relief, sadness. But mostly happiness. "I have no words... I'm just so happy that I can see you again." Hobi burst out in tears and hugs him tighter. When he finally let go, he joined Jimin on his bed.

Behind him, Tae heard the door creak. Tae looked over his shoulder to see who it is. His heart almost stopped and goosebumps formed over his whole body. He couldn't hold his tears back. It already flooded out of his eyes like rivers. "Jungkook!!" Tae exclaimed and collapsed into Jungkook's arms, Jungkook holding Taehyung so tight he was scared he'd break Tae's ribcage.
