Together You and I

CHAPTER 39

CHAPTER 39

JUNGKOOK's P.O.V.

I can feel my heart ready to jump out of my chest in anxiety. My brain keeps on flashing ugly scenarios in my head and I can't take it anymore. I want to know how she is. We just met again. The universe can't be this cruel to take her away from me this way. A tear escaped from my eye as I worry about Mae Noona's current situation but I immediately wiped it away.

"Hyung, can you please drive faster." I pleaded to Sejin hyung. He looked at me with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry but I can't go any faster. I don't want us to get into any accident. Don't worry Jungkook-ah, I'm sure she is fine." Sejin-hyung tried to console me but it can't keep my heart calm. I can only calm down if I see her fine with my own two eyes.

I am not used to praying, but right now, that is all I can do, I bowed my head and prayed to God to keep her alive, safe and sound. I don't think I can take it if I will lose her again. After a few minutes, we finally arrived at Seoul Hospital. This is the hospital where Mae Noona was admitted according to Miss Lee. I didn't wait for Sejin-hyung to get out of the car. As soon as the van stopped, I immediately stepped down and went to the information.

"Excuse me Miss, is there a girl admited here from a car accident?" The nurse at the information stared at me wide-eyed and that's when I realized that I forgot to use my disguise. "Jeon Jungkook." I heard her mutter under his breath. I felt annoyed. I never thought I will hate the fact that I am a celebrity. I don't need their recognition. I need some answers. Now is not the time for this. I need to see Mae Noona. "Miss, are you listening to me?" I asked through gritted teeth. I guess she noticed that I am not in a good mood and that made her reply faster. "She is on the second cubicle when you turn left."

I sprinted towards the said location and saw a body covered in white blanket stained with fresh blood from head to toe. I froze. I felt my soul left my body. No! This can't be real. She can't be dead. I felt like something heavy fell on my chest. It's getting harder to breath. "Noona." A tear fell then another. My vision is now clouded with tears. I took two heavy steps until I am standing a feet away from her body. I want to check if she is really the person lying here. With shaking hands I reached out for the white cloth. I removed the cloth slowly with closed eyes. I don't think I am prepared to see her lifeless body but I must know. I was about to open my eyes when I heard someone called my name.

"Jungkook-ah, what are you doing here?" I whipped my head so fast that I almost broke my neck. I saw Mae Noona standing a few feet away from looking fine and that's when I lost it. "Mae Noona." I whispered her name before I ran towards her and pulled her into a tight hug.

"Jungkook-ah, are you okay? What is wrong?" She asked as she tried to push me away but I didn't let her go. I felt like my chest is ready to burst in with all the emotions I have right now. She is alive. That is all that matters. "Jungkook-ah, why you crying?" She asked but I could not reply. I buried my face in the crook of her neck and cried my heart out. I don't care if anyone can see us. I don't care if this will make a scandal. All I cared at that moment is us. Her in my arms. That is all that matters.

MAE's P.O.V.

The sound of the siren woke me up from my slumber. I carefully sat up and explore my eyes around an unfamiliar room. I can feel a little pain on my forehead and so I reached for it and felt a little bulge. What happened? I looked around and saw white ceiling, blue curtains and some hospital equipment. Am I in a hospital? 

I started racking my brain for some answers but I really can't remember how I ended up here. The last thing I remembered was riding a taxi to the press conference and then something hit the car I was in and then everything blacked out. My eyes went wide with the sudden realization. It hit me like a lightning. I need to go to the press conference. I looked for my shoes and was about to run out of the room when I felt something tugged my arm. I looked down and saw an IV tube. I carefully pulled it out and then pressed the wound to avoid bleeding before I walked towards the exit. I was already on my way out when I suddenly bumped into someone making me almost lose my balance. Luckily, that person was able to hold me on both of my arms to keep me steady.
