Jisoo and Dr. Namjoon went away leaving me and my mom alone. She looked at me with teary eyes.

I took seat where Jisoo was sitting a while ago and hold mom's hand. She looks pale and weak, after surgery effect are yet to seen but I know she is not fair to hold up.

She is weak. She easily get depressed and easily give up. I believe Jisoo is the one who give her some brain to hold up for surgery.

" Why you hide from me " I asked looking everywhere but not her cause I will broke down. I know I am so emotional like her.

" I am sorry tae...I din't wanted you to waste your time and money on me...I know I will die " she said still letting her tears flow down her cheeks.

She really thought I wouldn't going to know. " But not soon...why you thought that surgery and medication is waste of time...your son is doctor too... don't you trust them. Jisoo and Dr. Namjoon paid for your first surgery why...cause they care, they wanted you to know you will live long...you to believe that you will live long and not to give up. " I said wipping tears away from her cheeks before hugging her.

" Why mom...why you thought to give up, don't you want to live and see me growing up... don't you want to see me get married to someone I love and bring you grandchildren " I said still hugging her who nod and sniff, crying in my arms. I know she want too ofcourse any sane person want too.

" I want to, I want to see you grow up and marry Jisoo and have children...

" Mom...you must be hungry " I interrupt pulling away from hug. I know she still want me and Jisoo together. I heard them talking about us.

I was standing outside whole time just they where unaware. I heard each and every word they exchanged.

I heard Jisoo saying she still loves me but I don't know...cause I still want to know why she leave me...what was the reason.

" Tae... don't you love Jisoo anymore" mom asked even though I want to say yes... million times yes but my words left only to me. I am really a coward to express them.

" You know she still love you, she told me she still want to be together with you. I know there must be a reason... taehyung you should asked her...talk to her tae " mom said and again I just stay still like coward who still didn't get enough courage to know...why it's so hard to talk to her.

She loves me...so why she leave me. Tell me Kim Jisoo why. Give me some sign.

" I will...now rest till then I will bring some food " I said tugging her in blanket who looks at me with hopeful eyes like a kid who want me to bring a candy. Yeah I know Jisoo is sweet as candy but mom seriously.

" Talk to her for me if not for you " she mumble when I kiss her forehead and sigh. She is seriously becoming like kid.

I brought some food from hospital's canteen and took elevator back to mom's room. She must be hungry and waiting for me.
I won't let her suffer. I will save this angel, my saviour.

Getting out from elevator I heard some noise. Like someone crying in pain. It's common in hospital but the voice is familiar to me. It grow as I take steps forward. I wish I am wrong again.

But I wasn't.

Jisoo was lying on floor near a huge flower vase. She looks in pain and weak.

She tried to stood with little to no voice but she fall back enough for me to catch her in my arms.

I drop food package on floor and hold her before she fall again.
" What happened " I asked but she seems in much pain to answer. Her teary eye's making me weak...why are you like this my cutie pie.

I carried her in bridal style and took her in empty waiting area. She again whimper and arch her back in agony, with teary eye's she look at me.

" I-its hurt...ahh...she mumble clenching my sleeves in her fist. I want to take her pain, I want to embrace her...I don't care about reason cause I am sure I only want her and to protect her.

" Where does it hurts " I asked checking her pulse which is weak, her breathing is uneven too. Maybe her blood pressure is getting lower.

She shoke her head tightening her grip on my sleeves. Her eyes getting blurry.

" My l-lower back h-hurts...I couldn't able to s-stand...I w-was walking b-back t-th...she stop clenching her chest while talking and now it's not time to waste a minute.

Once doctors lift her from my arms inside operating room leaving me nervous as hell. It's been an hour but no one come out.

I don't know what happened, she was just crying and looking at me with her painful eyes.

I was so lost that I didn't noticed her bestfriend Jennie and her parents arrived.

Who called them. My answer soon get answered when Dr. Namjoon pat by back and noticed how nervous I was.

" What happened " I asked him who again gently pat my back. His hesitant gaze wavered everywhere making me confused...like he is thinking should he say something or not.

Before I questioned further me close his eyes. " Spinal injury after effects " he muttered slowly opening his eyes leaving me shocked and confused...spinal injury?

I blink confusedly looking between him and operating room and again open my mouth to questioned further but he stops me.

" As a doctor I told you...but as her friend I won't I promised her... taehyung you know how much I love her...I...

" Don't tell me...I mean I know you love her it's obvious, but if you want to fight then it's not even time for that " I interrupt his words who take deep breath and ruffles his hairs frustratedly before pulling me somewhere far from where no one can heard us.

I confusedly yet frustratedly glare at him who glare back but soon loosen up. The way he did that day at cafeteria.

" You are lucky that she loves you back...

" When did I said I love her " I again interrupt smirking but instead he pull my collar and glare deadly like if I said one more word he will beat me up.

I drop smirk jerking his hands away who sigh again but turn his index finger towards me in warning way.

" I don't mind if you lie to me but don't fucking lie to her...if you hurt her I won't think back and forth before punching you infront of her. " he yell at me his eyes furious but he hold himself, he love her so much, I can sense how hurt he is that she doesn't love him back...but me.

I said nothing cause I am guilty now, the way he warn tolds me I am acting out of content.

" You want to know what happened " he asked and I just nod without thinking much cause I want too. I want to know.

Jisoo told him but not me. Maybe something realated to him. But she still loves me...then...

" After that you will love her back " he asked once again ruffling his hair trying to calm his emotions. I stood still confused...I loved her, I love her and always will.

" It's not like reason matter to me to tell I love her or not...it's just I want to know why she...

" It's same " he muttered smirking teasing me. " You don't need to prove me though " he muttered smiling towards me where I just want to punch him for playing with me. He is making fun of me.

He call someone and told he is standing near 12th floor waiting area open corridor.

He said nothing just stood still folding his hands on his chest until he spot someone and called.

" Jennie..." he called her who widen her eye's seeing me standing with Namjoon like she didn't accept me here.

" What happened...why...

" What happened that day Jennie " he asked her who looked at him confused but soon it change into hesitation like she also doesn't want to tell me.

" Are you telling him or I should to that " he asked her who shoke her head before paying attention to me where I stood all confused and irritated. How much this day will cost my patience.

" The day before I called you to meet me we...I mean Jisoo, me and my drive caught in huge accident...she said and I just remembered that day.

The day I was trying calling her, the day I was jealous of Jennie for taking my cutie pie for shopping when we planned our date.

...we where safe just little bit injured but jisoo was numb, she was diagnosed as spinal dislocated patient, she was paralyzed and when she woke up she only wanted you to leave her and go Boston to your dream university " she continued only making me sick of myself, guilty that I hated  her for our break up, that I blamed her for betraying me when she at that moment also thinking about me.

She didn't want me to regret anything, she want's me to achieve my dreams and here I always found myself trying my best to hate her and blame her.

" For six months she was paralyzed... she wasn't able to walk nor talk...Jennie remind me things which I was unknown with and which I was known with. I never thought she would have gone through such condition. I didn't even had slightest of idea about it.

Jennie continues telling me everything happened past eight years. First six months of paralysis.

Later rehabilitation and recovery along with her online classes for perceiving degree in medical. Namjoon being her mental therapist.

How everything goes on, how she take efforts to meet my mom even when we where nothing.

She always asked about me to Jennie who get information for Jimin but I never asked how she was.

She was so happy when I got my degree, she even had my graduation pic. But I don't even know where she studied further.

I felt so guilty that I wasn't around or more than that I push myself away from her life. I should had asked her after that day...but I didn't.

I was sniffing when Jennie was telling me about reason, that damn reason I always wanted to heard.

I didn't even noticed I was crying when Dr. Namjoon pull me in hug and pat my back.

" Hey calm down man...it won't look good when she wake up and see you like this. " Namjoon said easing atmosphere. He was my rival a while ago but now he is my bestfriend I guess...cause he sacrifice his love for me...a true friend can only do that.

I pulled away and smile saying " Thank you " I really mean that two words, he deserves it. He deserve to be happy...but with someone else who will love him back cause jisoo is mine.

I will never let her alone even for a second now.

" Jennie what does he said... I didn't heard him " Namjoon asked Jennie teasing me.

Jennie chuckles but tease me joining him who wait for my response. But I just smile thanking him again." Thank you Dr. Kim...

" I thought we are friends now " he interrupt and I nod again. Giving him a brotherly hug who again pat my back like big brother.

He pull away raising his brow asking me what next. Ofcourse there's no time to waste now.

" Jennie can you bring food for my mom and take care of her for today "I request Jennie who nod smiling towards me.

" Yeah no worries...just be there for my bestie till she grow old or even further " she told me and ofcourse I am going to do that. I want to compensate those eight years though.

" Don't worry your bestie is my cutie pie too, I won't waste a single moment in my life now. In every moment I will be there with her " I said on which both Jennie and namjoon exchange acknowledging look.

Fate might change many things but true love never change.
