41 | hurry
The two rushed towards the emergency ward the moment the car was parked and they got out of the elevator. The taller male was looking left and right to check if there were any fans or reporters but there were none to be seen, which turned out to be one thing he could check off his list of things to worry about. The shorter male was already at the registration counter, panicked as he talked to the nurse. He looked intimidating, with the way he spoke to the nurse. Several patients turned to stare at the pair before the taller went and stopped him. He then proceeded to apologize and asked nicely the condition of a new emergency patient named Kim Taehyung.
The nurse typed the name into the computer in front of her and replied that the patient was still in operation. She then proceeded to give them instructions on how to get to the operation theater that the patient was at. Thanking the nurse, the taller - Namjoon led the other male - Hoseok away and hurried towards the operation theater.
Since there was a limit to where they could enter, the two paced back and forth in front of the doors of the operation theater. Neither were breathless or tired from rushing as they walked up and down, busying themselves with something as they waited.
It was not for almost two hours later when the doors of the operation theater opened and a tall male doctor walked out, removing his face mask at the same time.
"Seokjin hyung?"
The doctor looked up and into the eyes of his two best friends. "Hoseok? Joon?"
"You're the doctor in charge for Tae?"
Seokjin nodded and proceeded to dump the face mask in a sterile bin near the doors. Hoseok immediately rushed towards him. "Is he alright?"
"He will be. He was lucky enough to arrive before his heart stopped. We had to do a few blood transfusions and closed up the wound. But I must warn you, he might not be able to remember the past. We received the report for his medical condition from the accident and he had a concussion when he was sent to the previous hospital. If he wakes up, there is a high chance of amnesia."
Hoseok looked deflated. Seokjin looked towards Namjoon for help and the other male came up and wrapped his arms around his friend. "Thank you, hyung. Where is Mom?"
"Mom is at the Premium Lounge. I had the nurses direct her there for her to calm down. Don't worry, Mom is alright."
Namjoon nodded and let Seokjin go to change out of his scrubs. Hoseok was shaking in his arms and he guessed that the older was crying. The two were locked in a hug for awhile before Hoseok shimmied himself out of the other's hold and walked away. The taller male quickly followed. "Seok?"
"It's over, Joon. It's all over,"
"What's over?"
"Everything. I didn't even get to tell him that I love him. And now he won't even remember me,"
Namjoon paused and held onto his friend's shoulder, making him stop walking. "You don't know that, Seok. Jin hyung said a high chance, there's still that tiny chance that you can hold onto,"
Hoseok was silent for a minute. "A silver lining?"
Namjoon chuckled in his head. His friend did always believe in things like miracles, faith and of course, silver linings. "Yes, Seok. A silver lining,"
"I should give him up though, shouldn't I? If he does wake up and don't remember me, he would just continue with his career,"
"Then you just got to make him remember. He loves you, Seok. I know that,"
Hoseok turned and looked into the taller's eyes. His friend had kept a number of secrets from him, but if he had to choose the one person he would believe, he would choose him. He knew his friend always told the truth and never liked to lie. "Thank you, Joon. Maybe I will."
Namjoon smiled and hugged the other. "Then, let's go. You need to get something to eat and I need to meet my mother. We can visit him when they've moved him to a room, okay?"
The shorter nodded and let himself be pulled by him. In his heart, he prayed to God and the Heavens that they not take the memories of him from the one that he loved.
