[BTS: Love Yourself Series] MinYoongi x Save Me

Chapter 24: Cheonggu Building

5:16 p.m. 27 December 2015

Backstage, World Memorial Hall @ Kobe

[Yoongi's POV]

It has been four days that Yoongi last slept. No matter how hard he tries, he just couldn't get the pervasive thoughts out his mind. People are walking around the room, in and out. Yoongi felt so disconnected from reality.

Yoongi is seated on the chair, the makeup artist is styling his hair. The sound of the hairdryer is overwhelming and the smell of hair spray is making him nauseous. His heart is racing and the palms are getting more and more sweaty. He forces himself to drink more water to calm himself down.

The hairdryer noise just never stops ringing because he is breaking so much cold sweat on his forehead that they are blowing more cold air on him.

Someone came and stood next to him. That person seems to be talking to him. But Yoongi couldn't hear anything. Nothing seems to be processing in his head. He just wants to escape from this chaos. Flashing light from the camera is blinding, yet it is like swallowing him into darkness.

The numbing sensation of the tip of his fingers had quickly spread to the rest of the body like wildfire. He couldn't stand it anymore. He drags his trembling body and ran out of the room, panicking, to find a place to hide.

Yoongi shut himself in the toilet.

He can no longer contain his anxiety. He throws up into the toilet and struggling to breathe. Every breath is a desperate gasp of air. The banging and shouting on the other side of the door are like monsters trying to devour him alive.

Yoongi saw his phone that fell onto the floor. He desperately reached out to the phone with barely any energy left and press the button to call the person that he's dying to see.

The door burst open!

Yoongi is shaking with tears. People are asking him to 'calm down'. But the more he hears that word, the more berserk he behaves! And he lashes out on anyone who comes close to him.

In the end, Yoongi couldn't win against the strength of three strong men. He was carried out and immediately send to the hospital.

Outside the toilet, stands Jungkook with a face of disbelief.

In amidst all the chaos, Yoongi's phone is still lying at the corner of the toilet. The speaker on the other side of the phone is desperately getting attention.

10 minutes before Concert, BTS Emergency Meeting

Chief director: After ample consideration, I think the best solution now is to cancel the concert for today and tomorrow.

Seokjin and Hoseok are looking down on the floor. Jungkook is tearing and Jimin is consoling him.

🐨 Namjoon: How are the two of them now?

Chief director: Although V claimed that he can still perform, but his physical condition may cause him to collapse during the performance anytime.

Chief director: As for SUGA... He need rest. He is doing fine now in the hospital. We will be flying back to Korea the next morning for medical treatment. As of now, the team is working on preparing the video clips and script for the suspension of the concert. We need you guys to go back to the stage and formally announce it to the fans.

Chief director: Sejin-ssi. One of the staff found SUGA's phone in the toilet. Please help to return it to him.
