At Seoul Hospital,

"Y/n-ahh calm down..nothing is going to happen to him, please don't think too much and let's go to the OT." Minjee comforted hugging you tightly in her embrace to which you nodded your head silently.

Suddenly, Jimin's phone started ringing so he excused himself and went to the corner of the Receptionist area, while you and Minjee headed to OT.

When you reached there, you saw your mother sobbing badly while both palms covered her face fully.

You felt a pang in your chest watching your mother breaking down and you weren't there before to comfort her.

You wiped your tears and hurriedly went there and engulfed her in your arms tightly.

"Mumma, shhh nothing bad is going to happen to Papa. He is strong you know that so please stop crying. If we'll break down then tell me who's going to take care of him..huh?" You stated holding your tears back because at this point where your family ie., your mumma needs you so you can't break down in front of her. You have to be strong for her.

Minjee on the other side was watching you and your mother affectionately while shedding her tears silently.

The OT light turned red to green which means the operation is done. The gate was opened by one of the doctors and came to you and your mother.

"Are you Mrs Lee?" The doctor confirmed your mother who nodded her head before standing on her feet impatiently.

"Doctor, how's my husband? Is he fine? Tell me please.." She impatiently asked with her breaking voice.

"Mrs Lee he's fine but his legs are fractured very badly so it'll take almost 6 months to heal fully and because of that he can't walk for straight 4 to 5 months. We'll prescribe you the medicine which will help him to heal soon. You can meet him in a few minutes as we are shifting him to another ward, but don't pressurize him to talk as he has deep injuries in his jaws, so there are chances that he'll feel difficult to talk." The doctor explained, handing the prescription to her mother.

All three of you went inside the ward after they shifted him to the patient ward. The gate was opened by a nurse. When you all saw him, your mother and your world shattered after seeing his condition while Minjee was shocked to see him like that, his whole body was connected to many pipes and had an oxygen mass for breathing properly.

You all sat beside him on the given stool. After a few minutes, Mr Lee opened his eyes when he found someone sobbing.

When he opened his eyes, his heart ached to watch his family breaking down because of him. You saw his opened eyes so you instantly wiped your tears and smiled through the pain.

You tossed your head to look at your mother who was shedding tears painfully while holding the hand of your father with hers in a firm grip.

"Mumma look he's awake. Now stop crying he's alright now..see" You said with a painful smile, pointing your index finger towards your father to which her mother looked at him and cupped his cheeks firmly so that it won't hurt his jaws injury.

"How are you feeling now..?" Mrs Lee asked him who just smiled and showed thumbs up to her as he was now not capable of speaking properly because of his jaws injury.

"I see." She smiled.

"Uncle, you should rest now..because the more you'll rest the soon you'll get better," Minjee advised while wiping her tears which were falling from her eyes to jaws to her neck. He nodded at her as a response. Minjee passed him a smile. All this time you didn't utter a single word to him.

You were still struggling to speak to him as you know that now you are second in command in the Lee household. Your captain is down, so you must hold your family together because, after your father, you are the support of your family.

A little girl of five whose whole world had shattered was given home, heart, love, promise, and nurture by this man who was no one to her, just a stranger to her. He was not a rich man, not a young and dashing man, but a man with love and conscience. Your feelings for this man are hard to gauge. You literally will do anything for him, your "papa.." when the doctor declared his condition and the fracture on his legs spoke only of that love and your need for him in your life.

As both Minjee and Mrs Lee leave the room, You stayed back to be with him for a moment. You held his hand with the most loving care and were determined,

"Everything will be alright, papa."

A tear slid down from a helpless man's eye as he was not capable now to embrace his daughter and say that "yes everything will be alright".

You were still holding on to your emotion so that you don't get a break in front of your family as they need you the most. You have to be strong for them but deep inside you were falling apart and still, you were struggling to stay on top of things. You can handle everything but not the loss of your parents especially your papa who's your everything, your role model.

You wiped his tears and walked away from there. You came out of the ward and saw Minjee standing beside the door.

"Y/n, you are very courageous, you will have to take care of your family."

Minjee stated, patting your head adorably. The words of Minjee broke you.

A young girl's rising angst, worry, and struggle to overcome, and needs to just let go of it. You are hurt beyond belief, helpless. You felt the sweep of this massive moment, it drags you down, you were trying hard to stay afloat but can't.

You walked away and found a quiet seat for yourself. Your body arched, wrapping your helplessness around you, you prayed to the one you know, the one that is always there...your god.

"Please give me strength, god." You sat there steady, unmoving. Your eyes closed tightly where you were trying to seek inner calm.

Then, suddenly your lids flutter, and just an instant later entered the stream of wind, first far then near to you, swirling...

You felt something, someone...?!?
You turned your head....and

he stood there.

Something in his eyes, everything in his eyes. Your heart, your mind rushing up to him.

In the silence, just the silence, and the rustle of the wind.

You looked at him with tears streaming down abruptly.

"Melon.."

He gently called out just once and that's all you needed now. There was so much pain in your young innocent eyes. They were sparkling so often with all your irritating nonsense talk, huge smile always on but look at you now, and it kills him to see you like that... all broken.

He knew that you always has a facade on, masking your insecurities and fears and here you were now, in your most vulnerable state. His call made you get up and you started to move towards him... first walked... and then ran towards him as if he is giving you the life force that you so desperately needed.

You knew pretty well that he can understand her. He is the only one here who can feel your pain and sense of loss.

In a few short steps, you reached toward him and wrapped your arms around him, rested your face against his chest and just cried your heart out. You snuggled your cheek against him.

This is your happy place. This is what gives you peace, this is what feels so right.

Did you know what you were doing.. you were in a daze. Your mind did not even get a chance to stop you. He was taken aback but let you embrace him, his arms came up and held you gently.

You clutched into his shirt tightly as you broke down completely.

"I don't have the strength anymore. I don't have the strength, I-I am tired, I won't be able to do all this. I've lost my mother once before, I won't be able to do it again with my papa. I won't be able to. I don't have the strength, I'm completely broken now, Jimin-shii.."

You whimpered painfully against his chest and he had never seen you so distraught.

"I-I don't have the courage.., I am completely broken in every way...Jimin-shii."

You uttered and snuggled more into his chest. His eyes closed as the pain sears him becoming his for that instant.

He, an orphan just like her had instinctively known what would happen to her at the news of her beloved father's illness and condition.

You would never say these words to anyone else, not even to your mother. But you knew Jimin understands you more than anyone else. You trust Jimin enough to see you like this, you can freely share the deepest parts of yourself with him with no worries.

He glanced down at you who was sobbing badly with your closed eyes like a child against his chest. He held your face gently like it was a feather for him.

You opened your eyes at his movement and looked at him with your glossy eyes which were shimmering because of the tears you were shedding. He wiped your tears with both his thumbs on either side of your cheeks and smiled at you before cupping your face gently.

"Don't worry Melon..Everything will be alright."

He stated and joined his forehead with yours to comfort you. You closed your eyes at his movement and cutely nodded your head at his statement agreeing with his words.

You both stood there in the same position for a beautiful couple of minutes.

Jimin detached himself from you and made you sit down on the chair. You were just following his actions as you were not in the state to talk.

After a few minutes,

"Y/n-ahh, drink this water you'll feel better," Minjee said, handing the glass of water to you which you gladly took and drank all in one go. Minjee chuckled at your reaction.

"Y/n-ahh I know you must be thinking about your family condition but don't worry because I'm with you and even Jimin-shii is with us so we'll solve it...hmm," Minjee stated while holding your hand with hers.

"You know Minjee I'm the luckiest person in this world because I have a beautiful friend like you who cares about me and help me always in my worst times. I'm truly very thankful to you." You smiled and hugged her like a kid.

"You are making me emotional Y/n -ahh." She said patting the back of yours.

"I know... I know." You agreed to her.

"I'm happy that you are smiling now. Now, wash your face because you are looking like an alive zombie." Minjee tried to lift your mood and soon you laughed at your response because you were making a cute angry pout and went away from there to the bathroom of the hospital.

Meanwhile inside the Bangtan club,

"Brother, how can you be so sure that she is your angel..? Did she tell that herself or you are just assuming things..? " Jungkook asked his brother who was sitting opposite him with his eyes closed.

"Kim Taehyung can never be wrong."

He sternly replied, gazing at Jungkook and a smirk appeared on his face watching Jungkook's confused face.

"But, I'm still confused because she looks so different now and my conscience says that she's not her
..?" Jungkook questioned him as he was amused to see his devilish smirk like he was thinking something or maybe someone but shrugged it off as it is very hard for him to understand his brother sometimes.

Taehyung ignored his questions and again closed his eyes but Jungkook's next words made him lose his sanity.

"Brother, I heard her name is Melon, not Y/n. Jimin hyung called her Melon so it clearly states that she's not Y/n and if she was Y/n, don't you think Jimin hyung would have informed you as his duty. Don't you think that Melon girl seems special to Jimin Hyung?"

"SHUT THE FUCK UP...JUNGKOOK!!
I know she's definitely not Melon because she's my Lee Y/n, My Angel.."

He growled loudly which sent a shiver down his spine of Jungkook. He instantly shut his mouth and looked down because if he look towards his cruel and dark eyes now he'll for sure get burned by his stares.

"But, how did you recognize her?"

Jungkook being a stubborn again asked him a question to which he just darkly chuckled and replied,

''How can I forget those beautiful eyes, her cocoa-brown eyes?
Those eyes became the power of mine after my mother's death.."
