Save Me

I

"My head... God my head hurts. Did somebody slammed a huge rock on my head or something? It's so bright in here. Why is everything so bright? My throat feels so dry. Can I have some water?" Funny how the groaning of the place being so bright was the same sentence that came out from Jeongyeon's mouth when she woke up. Maybe Nayeon did visit Jeongyeon in her dream. The doctor and nurses were there first when Nayeon was half awake but they left a few minutes after checking the girl's vital signs which positively improving. "What happened Sana? Why am I here?" Nayeon asked her cousin, scanning the surroundings and checking on herself in that condition, Nayeon immediately realized where she was. Sana was the only one there in the room to accompany the girl when Momo left to look for Seoyeon and Jeongyeon. Nayeon was about to move upwards when she suddenly felt her hip throbbed in pain making the girl fall back again and immediately teary-eyed. "My hip.. Sana it hurts. Can you tell me what happened to me Minatozaki? I feel like I've been rammed by a truck!" Sana shook her head, slightly smiling while walking towards Nayeon's bed carrying a glass of water handing it over to the girl who just woke up. Nayeon gulped on the water, emptying the glass within seconds. "Slowly, Nayeon. You might die choked on that water. You don't remember what happened?" Sana took the glass off the girl and eyed her cousin wearing a worried face. "No." Nayeon replied, short. She softly massage her temple hoping that it will ease the headache. "Sana I can't quite move my left leg. My hip is still here right? Oh god please tell me it's still here. I don't even dare to check on it." Nayeon whined. That amused Sana for the day when she scoffed and chuckled afterwards. She lifted up the blanket and directed the girl to look at it. Nayeon was hesitant but she peeked at her own hip still. "It's there silly. Thanks heavens you didn't have dislocated hip bone. You're still undoubtedly in one piece. You really can't recall the accident? Okay. Let's not use that brain so much since you just woke up or else it might melt and leak through your ears if you force it to work. You got hit by a car. You've been in a coma and-" Sana doesn't get to finish her explanation when Nayeon interrupted with a gasp. "Oh my god. Coma? Are you serious? How long? Wait WHAT YEAR IS IT!?" If Nayeon wasn't on a hospital bed that time, Sana would've slapped the heck out of that girl. She almost forgot how dramatic her cousin can be sometimes so she decided to play along. "Sorry Nayeon but it's 2025." Nayeon was surprised by the answer. Her mouth was wide agape. The girl was lost for words but then Sana burst out laughing out of sudden. "Nayeon I'm just kidding, it's still 2020. You've been into coma for 3 days honey. Oh my god you should've looked at your face!" Nayeon was not having it. She sit upright instantly ignoring the pain that she's currently having all over her body and grab her pillow, throwing it towards her cousin. "What the- you motherfuc- you're a piece of shit. It's not funny you dumbass!" Sana managed to catch the pillow but still couldn't stop laughing. "I haven't finished talking and you cut me off! Serve your ass right." Sana banters.

Nayeon and Sana still very much bickering about the whole pranking thing when suddenly the door was half opened revealing her twin sister Seoyeon with Momo following from behind. "Hey sleepyhead. You're awake. How do you feel?" Seoyeon asked, approching Nayeon's side. "Unnie? What are you doing here?" Nayeon questioned. "To take over dad's business and kick Sana out of the company." The room suddenly went silent. Sana was speechless. Nayeon threw a 'what the fuck' look and Momo murmured 'ooh crap' without looking at the twins instead she averted her gaze, glancing at Sana's direction. "Look at Sana's face hahaha. I'm here to visit you silly. You had me died for a second the minute Sana called, telling me that you've been in an accident." Seoyeon carefully hugged her sister, feeling relieved seeing her sister in a safe condition. "You fly from Greece for me? Awh.. You're the best. Are you here alone or with your husband and the twins?" Seoyeon explained that she flew back into her home country with her husband and sons. Seoyeon originally planned to go alone but thinking maybe it is time to reconcile with her parents, she decided to drag her family with her. She keep the intention to herself not wanting Nayeon to think about it at the moment. To Seoyeon, right now it's Nayeon's health is what matters. "I don't want to ask how you caught yourself dicing with the death because I know you're the second careless person in the world after Sana. I'm grateful enough that you're okay and awake now." Seoyeon laughed, looking at Sana whose mouthing 'you are the worst' at her. "Okay let me retract back my compliment. Screw you. It's not like I'd thrown myself in front of a moving vehicle on purpose!" Nayeon huffed, folding her arms across her chest. While the two was catching up about Nayeon's condition, Momo and Sana realized that Jeongyeon didn't showed up alongside Seoyeon, since the two had their 'small talk' in private just few minutes ago. Momo excused herself out of the room, with Sana offering to follow but Momo asked her to stay with her cousins. The black haired girl then saw her friend standing with her back leaning on the side of the wall. "What are doing here? Why didn't you come in? What's with that face?" Momo questioned. "I- I don't know. I'm scared. I'm the cause of this, Momo. I'm the reason she's on that hospital bed right now. If I didn't left her at the airport, she wouldn't-" Momo grabbed her friend's shoulders making the girl to focus on her and stopping Jeongyeon from talking craps. "Stop this nonsense. It's not your fault. It was no ones fault. Nayeon happened to be in a wrong place and in a wrong time. You have to get over this guilt tripping yourself bullshit Jeong. Right now you need to be there for her, you understand me?" Jeongyeon inclined her head. It was never Momo's intention to pitch that facts that hard on her friend. It frustrates the hell out of her seeing Jeongyeon keep on blaming herself. She knew Jeongyeon just needed an assurance and a little push to do the right thing and Momo was right, Jeongyeon didn't think for a second to take a step into Nayeon's room right after the short 'brainwashed' session. When Jeongyeon open the door, every eyes in the room were on her. Jeongyeon faltered and stopped in mid-stride. "Na- Nayeon." Jeongyeon stuttered. "Yes? Can I help you?" Her tone was flat. Her face showed no expression, not even a bit of a joy detected. Jeongyeon heart drops at the sudden remarks thinking Nayeon didn't mean to sound and looked that way, and maybe she's just upset with her so Jeongyeon continues to speak. "I- can I talk to you for a minute? Alone?" Nayeon flashed a confused look towards the blonde. "Sure...but sorry do I know you?"
