"I'm sorry, they couldn't save the baby," she whispered on his ears, and it was like he was struck by lightning. His mouth fell open and words won't came out from his dry lips. He felt his hands trembled while he made a fist as his mother's words registered into his brain.
"Ba-by?" voice almost impossible to hear, a tear landed on his palm while he fixed his eyes on it not knowing what to do anymore.
"I need to see her," he said faintly but loud enough for the people inside the room to hear. "I need to comfort her, please take me to her, she's weak, she might be crying her eyes out right now, Mom please." he pleaded.
"Jungkook, honey," the lump on his mother's throat was making it impossible to speak, she can't bare to see his son so broken like he is right now.
"What?!" he asked, not sure if he really want to know the answer.
"She's in a coma."

The door creaked open and everyone in the room turned to look at Jungkook. At first he couldn't see you because of the numerous people inside the room but when his gaze landed on your motionless frame on the hospital bed, he couldn't stopped himself from striding towards the bed kneeling beside you while he hold your hand.
No words were enough to say how much he despise himself for everything he has done to you, he want you to wake up so you could scream at him, slap him and tell him how much you hated him, but you weren't moving and all he could do was cry his eyes out as he looked at you-- eyes closed, breathing silently as the machine beeped on the background.
Your father was about to drag Jungkook out of the room but your mom stopped him, "He's her husband," she murmured gesturing everyone to leave the both of you alone.

He played with your fingers while he sat on the chair beside the bed, after getting dismissed by the hospital he never left your side even once. It has been three months since the accident and pretty much everyone went back to their normal lives, but not Jungkook, not when his own life was lying on the hospital bed--motionless while he still breathes the heavy air that surrounds him.
Everyone still visits you from time to time, even your parents and Jungkook's, but they didn't stayed too long just like Jungkook did, and everyone kept telling him that he should at least get a day off and just go out a bit but he wouldn't listen.
"Jungkook honey, just one day," his mom told him, "take a break, we'll be here to accompany her."
But he didn't say yes, he didn't say no, he just continued to look at you, admiring your sleeping face waiting for your eyes to look at his own once again.
His parents left the room with a sigh.
"I can't leave her," he mumbled to himself, "I made her a promise that I'll always be by her side, that I'll never leave her."
"Y/N," his soft voice ringed on your ears sending you back to reality. "I'm here right beside you, I won't leave so don't be nervous okay?"
And then you both danced beautifully in front of the crowd not minding everyone else but only looking at each other.
He remembered how amazing you were when you dance, how this aura of yours engulfed you in a magical way, he miss you so much, he miss seeing you dance, he miss your small frame against his body while he hug you, he miss your kisses, your beautiful eyes, your smile, your voice, your everything.
He could already imagine your smile, when you find out that you both won the dance project, it made him smile unknowingly, but the smile faded as soon at it appeared when reality struck him again.
"Baby, when will come back?" He asked, silent tears streamed down his cheeks. "I know you hated me, but this is so unfair." His grip on your hand was tightening when he felt all of the emotions came rushing.
"How could you make me wait for so long? Why can't you just slap me right now and tell me how much you hate me instead of just lying there? Y/N please..." Looking down on your hand he slightly wipe off a droplet of tear that landed on your knuckles.
He leaned closer to your face, looking at you closely, you didn't changed one bit, you still looked beautiful, so beautiful that even when you were just lying there sleeping, you still set Jungkook's heart hammering on his chest.
"I love you," he mumbled against your lips, "Please come back to me Y/N, I need you more than anything," he said brushing his lips on yours while his tears trickled down to your pale cheeks.
He gently brushed your damp cheeks with his thumb when a sudden tear left the side of your eyelids in time with the slight knock on the door as it opened, entering the nurse making Jungkook's head turn and stood on the side while the nurse checked your status.

MONTH : 4
He lay his head on the side of your bed, his hand on yours while he sleep soundly, he felt tired as always, eyes swollen as always, and tummy rumbling as always, but all of these he didn't mind, 'cause all he know was that he needs to be by your side all the time, he needs to be the first one to see you open your eyes.
He had told you he loves you a million times already, he whispered close to your ears making sure that you hear him clear, every single time did, he would always place a soft kiss on your red lips, and every single time, a tear would always escape from the side of his eyes.
"I love you Y/N," he mumbled on his sleep, tears damping your hand causing you to shift your finger lightly on his cheek while he held your arm firmly.
