21: I love you

The words wouldn't register in my head until Jin smacked the back of my head.

"Jimin, you've been frozen with that stupid look on your face", Jin said.

Jiyeon's father and mother put a hand on each side of my shoulder and Jiyeon's mother said, "Jimin are you okay?"

I finally came back to reality and asked, "Wait what's happening."

Naeun knocked on the top of my head and said, "Hellooo, earth to Jimin, Jin just recently told you that Jiyeon is awake."

"Oh my god Jiyeon is awake, we have to go to her room", I said and Jiyeon's father looked at Jin and Naeun then said, "Jin, Naeun, lead the way."

I watched as Jiyeon's parents stood up and followed frantic looking Jin and Naeun who immediately started brisk walking and Jiyeon's parents followed closely behind.

We went inside the elevator and I swear the elevator music didn't feel so nice to listen to all of a sudden.
Maybe it was because I was nervous since technically, I haven't spoken to Jiyeon in so long and her parents won't believe me about the magic chocolate.

The elevator music almost felt eerie when it was just classical music. I could feel sweat starting to form in my palms and I could feel my heart beating out of my chest.

Just when I thought nothing could get any worse, the elevator stopped and opened making me choke a bit. I was just thankful that none of them noticed.

I quietly laughed it off because I was so nervous that I could even hear my own footsteps in a busy hospital.

My steps kept getting louder and louder in my head until I stopped walking when I saw that we were finally right in front of her room.

Then Jin said to cut the silence between us, "Mr. and Mrs. Im, I think you two should go in first."

They nodded and I watched as they disappeared into the room. When the door was still open, I caught a glimpse of Jiyeon being tended to by a nurse.

I could feel my heart wrench but the door closed and it was as if I felt the situation become a little lighter. I felt arms surround me and I realized that Jin and Naeun were hugging me.

"Why are you guys hugging me?", I asked and Naeun just looked at me with sincere eyes and said, "Jimin, you looked like you were about to faint and we wanted to make you feel okay."

They pulled away from the hug and Jin said, "Look I know you're nervous, but you gotta suck it up and tell her because I'm done playing mediator with you two."

"Okay, okay, geez", I said and I stared at the door and just huffed.

I watched with heavy eyes as the nurse looked at machines next to me.
I could barely even move a finger and the lights were bright making me squint.

I heard a door open and now I looked forward and I saw my parents. I felt a little bit of joy light up in me when I saw them.

They went beside me and I weakly asked, "What am I doing here?"

My mom looked at me confused and said, "Honey, you don't remember what happened?"

I shook my head and my dad looked at my mom and said, "You don't need to hear from us because I'm sure you already know what you did and you're grounded for a week."

I mentally smacked my forehead. The stupid chocolate, I didn't know that finishing the bar would send me to the hospital.

My mom hugged me and then kissed me in the forehead then said, "Honey, you can't get into these kinds of things anymore, I almost fainted when I heard you're in the hospital."
