Episode 02
Nurse
Kim Taehyung-ssi, please. He asked for you.
Taehyung rubbed his temple with his thumb, phone clenched between shoulder and ear. He was in his apartment, dressed in grey sweats and a black shirt, cold mug of tea beside him.
He hadn’t heard that name in years.
Kim Taehyung
Jeon Jungkook? (heart trembling)
Nurse
Yes, sir. He arrived injured, postpartum. But he refuses to let anyone treat him or the infant. (saying worryingly)
Nurse
He’s dehydrated. Bleeding and lost so much blood. He is mentally unstable. You were the only name he whispered before collapsing. (Her heart burns saying all those words out)
Kim Taehyung
(Taehyung closed his eyes. Silence thundered)
Kim Taehyung
…Send me the address. (Sacred so much while his voice cracking)
Seoul National Hospital. Room 312.
When Taehyung entered, the world stopped.
Everything.. the hum of machines, the scent of antiseptic, the buzz of fluorescent lights.. melted into nothing.
All he could see was the curled-up figure on the hospital bed, knees pulled up, arms tightly cradling a tiny infant against his chest.
The same Jungkook who used to laugh so hard he’d snort in cafés.
The same boy who’d sing while brushing his teeth.
The one who once pressed his nose against Taehyung’s chest and whispered, “You smell like home.”
He looked like he hadn’t been home in a lifetime.
His skin bruised and hollow.
His lips, once always pink and kissed raw, were now cracked and bleeding.
And still… he held the baby like it was the only thing keeping him on earth.
Kim Taehyung
(Taehyung stepped in quietly, voice low)
Kim Taehyung
Jungkook-ah. 💔 (called as softly as he could while he is already broken inside seeing Jk after three years and the broken state of omega making his body numb)
Jeon Jungkook
(The omega’s body stiffened)
