When Seokjin opens his eyes, he notices that he is at the hospital, sitting down on a chair, having the old man beside him, as well. "How was your journey?" The old man question, almost making the boy flip.

"What? Why— what am I doing here?" Seokjin looks around, carefully, and stands up to leave the hospital, but he is yanked back down on the chair by the old man. "Why am I at the hospital?"

"You have broken the old watch into pieces," He replies, and lets out a deep breath. "The universe was disturbed, so it was time for you to finally return to the world where you really belong."

"I don't understand—"

"I just wanted to show you how it would be like if you were able to turn back the clock," He cuts the boy off, and smiles. "Have you seen the consequences?"

Unaware of what the old man is talking about, Seokjin remembers everything, slowly, and he feels a sharp pain in his head. "You... did it all, right?" He questions, and the old man nods. "Was it all a dream?"

He keeps the smile on his face, and answers, "Sort of," He pats the boy's back, and says, "But there is one more thing left."

"And what is that?" Seokjin questions, not wanting to make the eye contact with the old man who has changed everything for the past few days.

"Do you really wish to turn back the clock, once again?"

"Do you really wish to turn back the clock, once again?"
