Sometimes two people have to be apart to realize how much they need to fall back together. 

Taehyung POV:

After hearing all that had happened while I was sleeping and after disputing with that damn doctor I was sent back to my room. My doctor instructed me to remain here for another night before I may leave the following morning. He did this because he believed that keeping me in the hospital any longer could be dangerous. But nevertheless, I'll still be returning here for Y/n as soon as I'm released.

Jimin and Kento used some stories to send the children back home. Ironically, children are easily deceived by some made-up tales and believe them, while we adults strive mightily to believe that everything that happens is just a lousy dream.

We prayed for her to return within the 48 hours we had left, but my incessant restlessness made me feel sicker and worse. I couldn't take it anymore, so I considered walking down the hall considering I couldn't see her. They refused to listen despite my best efforts to persuade them, so I gave up since my twins also needed their father at the time. Again when did they need me?

I feel so helpless and hopeless and I was incapable to save her or my children. And when I attempted to do something, everything fell apart completely. I am aware of Ryuu and the details of the police's inquiries into him. They came for my testimony and the fact that I was so distraught by the prospect of losing Y/n that I had completely forgotten that I had seen a guy shoot himself. I hope Y/n never learns about Ryuu's serious and different story after she awakens.

Once she wakes up...

As some time passed by, the next morning I was ultimately instructed to return home; fortunately, Kento and my twins decided to do the same after being persuaded by my family to do so. We all need one other's support at this point. I urged Kento and my mother to let me spend the night with my children. As I listened to how they had been weeping for their mother all this time, they gave me permission. Tonight, I'll hug them as tightly as I can to ensure that they feel secure and understand that their father is with them and that they shouldn't be concerned.

They were holding hands and squatting on their bed sleeping soundlessly as I walked into the room. I approached them, sat down next to them on the edge of the bed, and carefully observed them while doing my best to be silent. I wanted to cry as they were worn out and had eyes that were swallowed from sobbing so much. I gently caress their head with my hand while I consider singing them a slow lullaby.

After some time, I settle down next to them and do my best not to wake them up as I wrap us in the blanket and pat them to coax them to sleep better. As I was doing this, the image of the four of us united crossed my thoughts and brought tears to my eyes. If only I hadn't messed everything up, maybe, just maybe, we would be living a wonderful life now. I have no idea when I fall into a deep sleep while thinking about my fictitious and miserable thoughts.

The next afternoon~~~

We were all unaware of how quickly time had passed until Kento and Jin visited the doctor to learn about Y/n's health. Despite their best efforts, the doctor stated the possibilities are slim. We had given ourselves a couple more hours to hear the outcome. Since I was unable to sit still and the majority of my family members were already in the hospital, the situation was completely worse than a nightmare for me.

Finally, it was in the evening when the doctor and an elderly nurse emerged from the ICU. I rushed over to him and waited for him to give me good news, but all I got from the doctor and the nurse was a sad, pained face. People behind me started crying as they looked down at their feet. He remained motionless and patiently awaited my response, or perhaps he was waiting for my punch, but I was just standing there dumbfounded as everyone dashed into the ICU, including my babies.

The doctor kept saying he was sorry as he left me there alone. I was still attempting to process the information, but I remained unconvinced. She cannot abruptly leave me like this. She left me once, I let her go once, and it won't happen again just because of that. I won't allow this to happen once more. She cannot simply leave her children behind and go somewhere else just because she chose to punish me.

After a while, my parents, Jimin, Jin, and Yoongi exited the room, but I wasn't bothered by their presence. I waited for Kento to come out through the door with the babies, but since it had been a while since he hadn't, I got up and slowly entered seeing my babies attempting to wake their mother while Kento just stood there looking at her. As I drew nearer to her bed, Kento became aware of my presence. He picked up Taesoo in his arms, grabbed Taehee's hand, and then exited the room, leaving just me and her.

Before leaving he added, "I guess you need some alone time with her...for the final time for real. I'll be waiting outside." I tightened my fist and stared at her, she looked like a dull deadly snail with her pale face and white lips. I gently caressed her icy, pale cheeks with my palms as I drew closer. My hands themselves become cold, I was unable to feel my heartbeat, and my mind was empty. I knelt down on my knees, which were in bad shape but I could ignore them for the time being. My lips trembled as I grasped her icy hand, which was resting on her abdomen.

I blurted out, "Remember when we first met?" I'm not even sure why I'm saying this to her, but I was at a loss on how else to get in touch with her. I foolishly kept thinking that she might hear me and suddenly wake up if I called her name. I began to go on about random things I could recall from our early years and how I was there for her even when she didn't think I was.

My voice was cracking and my words were slurred as tears were continuously flowing down my cheeks. As my hold on her hand grew stronger, I finally lost my composure and started crying. I continued to plead for her and elevated my scream.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry please come back. I swear I will never leave you behind or let you go. It was so stupid of me to do such a thing over and over again. I promise I will protect you, love you and make sure that you smile every day but please come back to me please. Our babies need you, I need you I can't live without you. I never thought leaving you all by yourself will put you in so much pain I'm so sorry please come back please. Please...Please come back...A future without you is going to be hell so, please...I beg you please..."

I begged and sobbed aloud for who knows how long, but there was no longer any hope. She wasn't moving at all, as seen by the breathing monitor's straight-line display. Even though my head and legs were in excruciating pain, I kept going until I couldn't.

My sobbing stopped as a number of things began to cross my mind and the air in the room smelt like medicine. The hand I was holding onto I realized that two of her fingers had moved slightly I looked up and saw her mouth twitch as I looked back to face her. I noticed the line moving ever-so-slightly up and down on the monitor. I beamed through my tears and got to my feet right away. However, I suddenly felt pain in my knees but I didn't care about it and called the emergency services.

The doctor, Kento, and a few nurses hurried inside the room while instructing us to wait outside. After an hour, we waited for the doctor to emerge from the ICU. We were all anxiously awaiting the news and hoping it would be good when word of Y/n moving her fingers reached the other people. The doctor took off his mask and I stumbled over to him. The doctor placed his hands on my shoulder, smiled, and nodded when inquired, "Is she okay?" I felt a strong sense of relief that made me lightheaded washed over me. He pats my shoulder and smiles, "Look what god has prepared for us and how all of your prayers for her worked. We knew that miracle happens but this one was unexpected. We had lost our hope 48 hours ago but couldn't say that out loud as there was still faint hope. "We are going to shift her to a separate room you guys can meet her there." We all smiled and thanked him as we waited for her to wake up.

She finally woke up 4 hours later, and Jimin and I were the only ones waiting for her at the hospital. The doctor gave her a brief physical examination, told us to give her a proper meal, and then told us to give her medicine. Aside from that, everything was fine.

I was by myself in the room with her while Jimin walked outside to get her food and medication. Since she was finally safe, the room fell silent as I tried to figure out how to approach her. If it were possible, I would have loved to run to her and tightly hug her, but for some reason, I couldn't; I felt ashamed even to be in this place.

She suddenly said, "Won't you come here and sit with me." My eyes widen as I glance up to find her waiting for me to approach her and take her extended hand in mine while smiling. As I hastily approached her and quickly grabbed her hand and hugged her, making sure that she wouldn't be wounded, my lips quivered and tears welled up in my eyes. She wrapped her arms around me as I further enfold her in my arms. Her shoulders were shaking, and I could feel her crying. Without uttering a word to one another, we grieved for a while.

We eventually broke the hug, and I sat on the edge of the bed holding her hand closely as she wiped my face clean of tears as I did the same. I looked at her, examining her lovely pale face, and replied, "I'm sorry." "You better be. I'm forgiving only this time...if you think of chasing me away or shoving me away from you, be sure you get that blasted head of yours cut off from your shoulder." I blinked again to be sure I heard her correctly before laughing manically as she replied.

She joined the laugh until she didn't, at which point she leaned closer to me and pulled me into a gentle tiny peck. Though I was initially surprised, I eventually managed to wrap my hand around her tiny waist and turn her quick peck into a long, lingering kiss. We were so absorbed in one another that we didn't care about anything else.

This was more than just a simple kiss. It was profound. This was our way of saying we were sorry, making a commitment, elaborating, understanding, and loving one another. We finally retreated from one another and gasped for air. I had my eyes closed but immediately opened them when I heard her utter, "I love you... I love you so much Taehyungie!" 

My heartbeat quickened, and I could feel more tears falling. Oh, God!! How often had I wished to hear those words come from her mouth? In all those nightmares, how many times did I hear her almost utter those words to me? I don't know how to put it into words, or perhaps I didn't know how to tell her that I was madly in love with her. It may have been a long time ago, but I was never wise enough to understand what real true love and happiness meant until now or long before.

She smiled through her tears as I answered, "I love you too...Oh, God!! I love you so so much. I can't explain to you how much I love you with just a few words." "Just stay by my side okay? Some precious people told me that just as much as I need you, you need me too. And that this time it will be only our happy moments and there will be no sad events going to happen in the future. So Taehyung, don't ever let go of my hand and always stay by my side." I nod and lean on her to kiss the tops of her hands.

"I guarantee to you princess that I will keep all of those promises and that I will also make sure that the aspirations of your beloved people come true." "I'm not a princess; I'm a queen, so address me as such and obey me", she adds as she draws me in with a smile. I laughed out loud and nodded. As I was going to move in for another kiss on her. 

"Welcome back my Queen." 

"Glad to be back my King."

We both chuckled as I gave her a gentle forehead kiss and pinched the bridge of her nose.

~~

There it was. This was the joyous everlasting ending to our long battle. She deserves it, I deserve it, and we all did. After experiencing such extreme agony, we all deserve a happy ending, and she proved to me that. After everything that has happened, I vow that only positive things will come our way since we were destined to have a happy ending. We'll only include joyful things in our new story. The sad story has come to an end, and now it's time for the happy story to begin and show the world what it's like to be with the person you love most in the world. Our happy ending is already here.~~~~

To my love~~~ Just you and Me and our future together take place. This marks the end of the story of misery at any and all times.
