Taehyung, Namjoon, and Jin came running out of the room towards Chung Ae and I. Meanwhile, I didn't know what to do or what to say. All I could do as the three men helped Chung Ae was stare with horror at my reflection on the pond of the red liquid splattered on the floor.

I didn't even notice that Taehyung has been shaking me the whole while to get me back to my senses until he started snapping his fingers next to my ear.

"Seo Yeon!" He shouted and it immediately got me back to my senses.

"H-huh?" I replied and he gave me a smile.

"You look like a scared chicken. Don't worry. Chung Ae is fine. He has been having these ever since he woke up," He said, but it did nothing to ease my frightened heart.

"But he-" I was about to argue but he interrupted me again.

"Give him nearly five minutes to breath and he will be the healthiest person on the face of this planet," He said and I nodded, but the image I saw just a couple of seconds ago didn't seem as simple as the way Taehyung portrayed it to me.

"Come on. Let's go back to the room," He said and pulled me along.

When I entered the room, Chung Ae was sitting down on a chair and looked just fine. My heart kind of felt at ease seeing him sitting straight, but it still didn't make sense. How? And why?

The moment I entered the room, his eyes met mine and I could tell that he knew I got some questions to ask. We all kept on looking at each other in awkwardness until they realized that Chung Ae and I had to talk.

Namjoon cleared his throat and said," I'm going to go look for more supplies."

Jin and Taehyung both got the clue and started excusing themselves too.

"I'll go help Namjoon," Jin said.

"I'll see.... if.... the... birds... nevermind I am just going to leave," Taehyung said which left a smile on my face.

My bias is acting cute in front of me and my heart isn't in the right shape to handle it.

When Taehyung closed the door behind him, I immediately looked at Chung Ae.

"Are you okay?" I asked him with concern and he just scoffed it off.

"I'm okay. I mean, I'm just here to save you and your friends from dying. I doesn't matter anyway," he replied with a sad smile.

"No. No Chung Ae. That's not why you are here. You did save Taehyung. You did save Jimin. I do thank you deeply for that. But, the whole time while you were unconcious, we were all taking very good care of you. We didn't think of leaving you even though we were already facing difficulties. And.... if this is about how I treated you back there... in the storage room, I'm deeply sorry. I was just... stressed out. I shouldn't have let it out on you. I was stupid. I'm sorry," I said and he smiled again.

"No. I'm the one who must apologise. I was being selfish. I should've considered the fact that you were feeling anxious," He said.

I shook my head at him and said," Regardless of who is sorry, how are you feeling?"

"I am fine. You really don't have to worry about me," He said.

"But, I saw you bleeding. You literally threw up blood! And your nose. It was-" I started but got interrupted by him.

"I'm fiiinnneee. Trust me. If I wasn't, I'd say otherwise," He replied with an assuring smile.

I gave him a skeptical look, but he just nodded as a response.

"Fine. But no seriously. You are like anpanman or something?" I asked him and it made him laugh a bit.

"Anpanman? Why would you say that?" He asked me.

"You are literally capable of saving us whenever. It is cool, but also kind of strange. Because, I remember very clearly the day we introduced ourselves to each other, you told me that you studied mechanical engineering, but it seems like you were attending the wrong classes while you were in college because you seem more like a doctor to me," I said and it made him laugh.

"It is a very long story. You wouldn't want to-" He said but got interrupted by me.

"There is nothing for me to do anyway so I might as well listen to your life story," I said then pulled a chair and sat on it.

"Ugh seriously," I heard him mumble to himself and then looked down and smiled to himself.

I cupped my face in between my hands and allowed my thighs to support my elbow as I watched him prepare himself mentally for the long conversation.

"You know how people normally hate school because of how they don't like studying and all that?" He asked me and I nodded.

"I was very different from those kids. I hated school too, but for a very different reason. I have only been to one school in my entire life, so I don't know if this applies to all schools too, but I found schools very unfair. There are people who work hard and pass all their tests and are suddenly the ones all teachers prefer, and there are others who cheat from the smart ones and tend to pass. There are others who are seen as quiet or stupid, and others who are misjudged by others and are just bullied twenty four seven. I was the silent one who was misjudged for being stupid," He said and I just nodded.

"The word 'tests' and I weren't exactly friends. I would solve any problem, and enjoyed studying, alot, but when it came to tests, my mind went blank. I wasn't THAT bad though. I did well in maths, physics, and mechanics. My favorite subject was biology though. I loved biology. It was the one thing I enjoyed the most. But of course, I wasn't entirely capable of doing well in it, because, as I said, tests and I weren't friends," He said and then took a short pause to breath.

"So... I wanted to become a doctor, but I couldn't but I got accepted to engineering and that is what I'm doing right now," He said and I just stared at him with wide eyes.

"That's...." I said and tried to continue but couldn't find the right word to describe what I had to say, so I just started a new sentence.

"But you looked like you knew what you were doing so well! Like, the way you knew that you had to disinfect and all that, and the way you put the surgical thread through the needle in the first time was so cool!" I said enthusiastically making him shake his head at me.

"You are acting like a four year old. You know that right? And if I have to be honest with you, I'd say I'm creeped out to a certain extent. Not too much though," He said and immediately sat straight in defense of myself.

"I would not call this being a four year old. I'd say that it is called being interested in your career and life for no particular reason," I said and emphasized the "I".

"Exactly. And it is creeping me out?" He said and raised his eyebrows.

I was about to argue back, but then I noticed that he was right.

"Okay then. Fair enough," I submitted to my defeat and then laid back on my chair.

We stayed silent for a long while until he broke the silence.

"But thank you. For everything. And I'm sorry that I wasn't able to be there for you whenever you needed me," He said and it made me smile. My heart fluttered when he smiled back and then looked up and closed his eyes.

He is a good person. He really is.

In a matter of seconds, the door burst open and revealed three happy men.

"A trunk came! There is a truck filled with people!" Taehyung shouted and it made Chung Ae and I stand up in shock.

"A truck?!" I shouted with shock and excitement.

The three of them nodded at me. Chung Ae and I looked at each other and then back at the three members of Bangtan. My eyes then landed on Jimin's unconcious body and I smiled.

We'll make it Jimin. Just hold on a little more for me. I'll make sure to bring you back safely.
