CHAPTER 4

Taemin walk in to the room where the rest of s where secretly looking at Key’s phone.

-What is it?- Taemin asked when he saw the guys acting suspicious.

-Nothing.- Key say hiding the phone. Taemin grab the phone from behind Key and looked at it. There was a freeze frame of the new video of EXO. In the frame was Kai full body shot making some kind of dance move.

-He look fine- that’s all Taemin say with some disappointment in his voice giving back the phone to Key. It was obvious to Taemin that Kai took his decision. They all knew Taemin and Kai had some kind of fight that end up in them not talking to each other, but no one knows the reason why.

-Taemin, didn’t you know? Kai asked the company for a leap of absent a few days ago.- Minho told him.

-No I didn’t know. Why would I know.- 

-Suho told me that Kai hasn’t been feeling well lately so the company granted two month thanks to his doctor’s recommendation. - 

-I hope he gets better soon- Taemin say it with resentment.

-Aren’t you going to call him at least? he was your best friend- Minho asked

-I don’t think he wants to hear about me.- 

-What exactly happened between you two that end up this bad?- Key was intrigue.

-Some bad decisions- that’s all Taemin say and walk away from the guys.

During the night, Taemin’s phone was ringing but he ignored it when he didn’t recognize the number, the same number insisted again but Taemin turn his phone off and went back to sleep. An hour later Onew walk into Taemin’s room waking him up.

-Taemin wake up you have a call.-

-What? who is it?- He asked Onew still sleepy.

-it’s doctor Kim. It’s Kai’s doctor. She say that she needs to speak with you, it’s urgent.- The sound of Kai’s doctor calling for him made him worry. It has to be something really serious to be asking for him.

-Hello- Taemin answered still with husky voice.

-Taemin, This is doctor Kim-

-I know who you are. What’s going on?- Taemin voice sound worry.

-I’m going to need you to come to the hospital immediately.-

-I’m in Japan- He reply.

-How soon could you come?-

-I don’t know. Tomorrow, two days. I don’t know. What’s going on?-

-I can’t say it over the phone but Kai it’s having some complication. He put you on his emergency contact and you might have to take some decision for him.-

-It’s Kai ok?- Taemin was alarmed.

-I couldn't say. Please come as soon as you can- That was the last words the doctor says before hang in up. It took Taemin some of his savings to get a privet jet to be able to arrived to Korea in a few hours. Luckily the pilot and the jet service turn out to be big Shinee fans, so it was a lot cheaper and lot faster than he thought. By the time he arrived at the hospital, The lady doctor was already waiting for him.

-How is he? it’s he ok?- Was the first thing he asked. 

-He’s unconscious. I was finally able to stabilize him two hours ago. it’s still critical but I’m hoping he’ll make it trough.-

-But what happened?- Taemin looked desperate for an answer -Can I see him?- 

-Yes you can see him. Come this way- Taemin follow the woman to the end of the hallway. Once he enter the room Taemin walk slowly inside. Kai was resting in his bed with an oxygen mask and tube connected from a computer to his body. There was a beep from the computer he knew it was his vitals sign. He got closer to him. And the longing scent from before was there again, that sweet smell that Taemin was almost forgetting. That smell came back feeling his senses. That moment, seen 

Kai like that all of his resentment, his anger was forgotten. The love for his best friend came back along with the pleasant scent of his. Taemin approach him and kiss his forehead. 

-Kai, I’m here- He told his friend hoping to get any reaction from him.

-Give him a couple of days Taemin. I’m sure he’ll get back to you.- The doctor say. -On the mean time there is someone I’ll like you to meet-

-What? who?- Taemin asked, he didn’t feel like meeting new people, he just wanted to stay next to Kai.

-Please come with me- He looked back at Kai not really wanted to leave him but the doctor was insisting, so he follow her out the door down the hallway into another room where a nurse was looking away from the entrance. “Probably a fan” Taemin thought

-There is someone I will like you to meet- The doctor repeat. That moment the nurse turn around. Taemin bow to the nurse greeting her, he never notice what the nurse was carrying in her arms. 

-No Taemin, not her. I meant him- The doctor point out to the blanket on the nurse arms. -It’s your son-

Taemin was in shocked, even scare to approach the nurse. Maybe he didn’t hear correctly. “Did she said my son?” he thought.

-What?- that’s all he could manage to say.

-He was born last night, the reason I called you was because we were having some complication with the delivery. The surgery to get him out was risky. I thought I wasn’t going to be able to save both of them. Kai didn’t care if he die he wanted to save his son. But it was up to you to decide if it came to that, Thankfully I manage to save them. The baby it’s fine and Kai will be alright too.- She explained. Taemin was still shocked. -Would you like to hold him?- she asked. Taemin immediately say no, the baby was to fragile for him to hold him, he was scare to drop him or hurt him.

-But how? How did Kai was able to hide it? I saw him working as normal with the band.-

-I been monitoring him after he decide to keep him. We discover that the organ covering the baby was much stronger than the women's womb, so he was able to do a lot more activities than a pregnant woman, also the develop of the baby was in Kai’s thorax. With enough space all over his chest there was no need for his abdomen to grow like a woman’s pregnancy. that’s why he never showed any symptoms. He was able to leave his usual normal life until a week ago when Kai began to feel pain. Because I knew he requited surgery I suggest to take a couple of month before returning to his activities. We were able to keep it a secret as well as his admission to the hospital.- Taemin then look at the nurse who was listing to their conversation. -Don’t worry about her, she’s my niece, she will keep the secret. The hospital believes that her name is Kai and that she was the one delivering the baby.-

-Thank you- Taemin bow to her in  gratitude.

-Here, hold your baby- The girl say handling the little bundle to Taemin. The girl show him how to hold him making sure that his little head was hold properly. Taemin looked uncomfortable carrying the baby, but he was happy. He was so scare to move thinking that he might brake something in the baby.

-You’re doing fine- The doctor say. and took a picture on her phone of Taemin holding his baby.
