Safe Haven"I'm back." someone said behind me. That voice sent butterflies in my stomach.
I flung my arms on him. "I missed you." I said, nuzzling on his chest.
"You too, pabo Kyungsoo." he said, hugging me tighter. "Thank you." he suddenly said.
"For what?"
"For singing to me." A soft blush crept to my cheeks. "I always hear you and even if I can't show it, your voice brings me back to life bit by bit." he said.
"Then I'll keep talking until you wake up." I said.
He chuckled and kissed my temple. "I can't stay long. I have to go." he suddenly said.
"I'll see you again, right?" I asked him. It took him a minute to asnwer, "Yeah, you will see me again." The tone in his voice doubted me. I knew his answer has a different meaning. But before I could ask him, he disappeared.
"Kyungsoo. Pabo Kyungsoo." The voice rang in my ears. I opened my eyes to find Jongin staring at me with a smile.
"Jongin-ah, you just left right? Why did you come back again?" I asked groggily.
"What are you talking about, you pabo?"
"Ah, I'm so sleepy. Let me sleep some more." I said, feeling my eyelids droop again.
"Alright pabo, sleep tight." he said.
I drifted off into sleep again. Only this time, everything was black. My sleep was peaceful. The most peaceful sleep I've had. Then I felt as if someone stabbed my chest. I couldn't breathe. No air was entering my lungs. When I could finally breathe again, my heart tightened. I quickly woke up to see Jongin in the same position. I exhaled in relief.
But my relief was too early when I realized the comforting beeping sound was replaced with a series of long ones. I looked over at the heart monitor and I faced my greatest fear.
I saw a flat line.
