14. Nightmare

"Yeah, we would continue to bring her in" some yelled from a blaring far distance.

"Encourage her, let her push!" another voice yelled in the hospital ICU which was under a very difficult birth-giving situation.

"Dr. Kim! You have to brace yourself! please help her!" Seokjin just stood there, his hands had blood, not his but the woman who was hollering in pain on the birth unit table.

"Dr.Kim do something! The birth has many complications, you can handle it!" Seokjin still stood there through all the yelling around him, he was dazed, he felt his heart stop, he felt his ears burst, and his hands shook as he stared at the horrific scene in front of him.

Seokjin strapped down his mask once again to give it a last try, to save the immature baby which is going to push through the walls of the woman's vagina, but he was scared, scared he could hurt everyone.

"I can handle it," he says in a whisper and tries his best to do whatever he can, he encourages, his voice shaky but his confidence and demeanor of a soldier to save someone, the scans were blaring with the noise he wasn't much familiar with.

Those annoying ticking machines were making whirring noise which he absolutely hated to its best.

He closed his eyes and clenched his fist to let the revolving world around him come to a standstill but then he heard the sound he dreaded to hear, that was the silence, the utter nonsensical silence which stuffed his ears, made his heart feel full and the utter silence which made his body go limp.

Seokjin was holding the baby in his hands, his face sweaty, and his white coat remained no more white but was painted with a series of strokes of red shades, his body went limp and he fell down but protected the baby in his hand, the baby which made no noise, which made no cries, which did not have much movement, the baby who wasn't at all trying to breathe.

The monitor which showed the heart rate of the teen woman lying on the bed made a shrieking noise and just continued in a monotonous rhythm, dead, it means she was dead.

Seokjin stared into oblivion as he heard the silence, he held the baby close to his chest and looked down at the child, it was a girl, beautiful girl he might say, Seokjin tapped her back, lightly at first and thumped a little on her back, she coughed, a baby coughed and gurgled out the air and mucus stuffed in her chest and gave a series of broken cries.

Seokjin sighed, not dead, the kid is not dead, he was happy about that, but what about the mother whose hands were limp, a shining teen, who was raped and loved this daughter building inside her despite the trauma she had to face, her eyes were open, her face now turned to Seokjin's direction, she looked at him, her eyes rather unfocused on just one subject and suddenly everything just turned black and red and cries and murderous smile and shaking bone-crushing silence.

Seokjin woke up with a pant from his dream, his face was dripping with sweat, and the blanket covering his body had gone down showing the doctor's well-built body, he huffed and struggled to breathe, his heart was beating as though it would come out of his chest any moment which is scientifically not accurate but right now, at 4 am everything seemed to just be flushing precise.

"Seokjin, breathe, take a deep breathe Seokjin" he heard the voice, the angelic voice of the man he married, he married after the wretched scenario he had to witness firsthand five years ago.

Seokjin turned around and hugged his husband, stuffing his face on the side of his neck "Jungkook, I dont deserve to live, that girl did not see how beautiful her girl was, she couldn't experience the happiness she always described me she would have after she gives birth" he whispered slowly, streams of tears falling from his eyes as Jungkook slowly and steadily rubbed his hand down Seokjin's back.

"I remember the way she used to talk so dreamily about having a great house after her studies and raising her child, her smile, she couldn't get what she wanted, I couldn't give what she wanted so bad, I dont deserve to be alive Jungkookie" Jungkook slowly kissed Seokjin head and rubbed his hands down his back to soothe the older man.

"You are a doctor, she would have wanted you to choose her daughter instead of herself, she would have been happy you saved her daughter, Jinnie, it was a nightmare, the day for you, I know it was a nightmare, but get over it because you know the girl and her daughter is in a safe place"

"Nightmare, it was the worst nightmare" Seokjin muttered still holding unto Jungkook like a child.

"Papa? Appa?" A small girl with features as sweet as that of an aphrodite which would make anyone fall in love with the small creature, came into their room rubbing her eyes, Jungkook turned his face a little rubbing his hands over Seokjin's hands and arms, and smiled at the little girl.

"Look our daughter has come finally to us, I told you, you cannot sleep alone for long baby, come here" Jungkook untangled himself from Seokjin and Seokjin let him, his face now down looking at the white mattress sheet.

"Come on Seokjin, seeing your daughter wouldn't make you guilty, you barely see her face, what if she feels you dont love her?" Jungkook said with a quiet voice while their daughter snuggled more into Jungkook's chest and embrace "You know why I cant look at Jina's face, because I couldn't save her mother, I love her more than anything Jungkook, the time I held her I felt that love, but the guilt of killing her mother remains"

Jungkook hushed Seokjin when he said the last words "Stop making yourself feel so gulliable over a medical infacillity, she is your daughter now, it does not matter if you could have saved her mother nor not at this time Seokjin, the most important thing now is to love her and forget the nightmare"

Seokjin stared at the chubby face of his daughter, it was magnificent and beautiful just like her mother, he smiled and looked at Jungkook and hugged him, careful to not squish the kid in between them "I bet you I will be the best father she has ever seen and work on my nightmare kookie" Jungkook smiled and snuggled his face on Seokjin's shoulder and hugging Jina close to him.

Seokjin felt content, full and ridden of any doubts when he saw this beautiful little family of his, his family without any nightmare but just filled with love and a little love from this angel who had come in disguise to vanish his nightmare.
