Chapter 70
Yoongi stepped out of the hospital, his gaze travelled around the parking lot and then it fell on a figure that was standing at the bottom of the stairs.
A smile tugged on his lips, his thoughts were with Yumei and he was worried but this he had to get off his chest. Unmei had always been the one who had occupied his heart.
He slowly walked down the stairs, her gaze fell on him and she half ran to him. "Yoongi! Is she?"
Yoongi's arms went up to steady her as she fell against him. "I- we don't have any news yet."
He hadn't told her the entire story of Yumei yet, but he will do so in due course but first...
"Yoongi, I am so sorry that-"
He removed his one arm and pressed his fingers against her lips. "Unmei... I have to tell you and then ask you something."
She blinked up at him, he sounded serious and defeated at the same time. What was so important that he had to place his fingers over her lips to stop her from speaking?
She nodded, he smiled and removed his fingers he then tugged a strand of her hair behind her ear. "I don't want you to speak- only listen."
Unmei parted her lips, but thought the better of it and just nodded once. Yoongi trailed his fingers across her cheek and inhaled a small breath. "Unmei, since we were in middle school and you broke through my angry exterior- I."
Unmei didn't utter a word, her eyes were searching Yoongi's face. Yoongi cleared his throat and his cheeks flushed. "I knew from that moment that you would always be the one for me, and I lo-"
Unmei didn't let him finish his sentence, her lips met him in a quick kiss. She pulled back and Yoongi was staring at her speechless.
He didn't expect that his lips parted and closed for a few times and Unmei let out a small chuckle. "Yoongi-"
He leaned forward and his free arm folded across her back and pulled her closer to him and his lips graced hers with another kiss.
Yoongi pulled back and smiled at Unmei who was blinking at him, "Yoongi... I love you too. Always have and always will."
"Then that would make this easier."
What was making what easier now? Unmei's face contorted in confusion but Yoongi smiled and went down on one knee.
He took Unmei's hand in his, "I ha dso many scenarios running through my head but I didn't think that this would happen on the steps of a hospital."
A tear escaped Unmei's right eye as she stared down at Yoongi who took out a small box from his pocket. He didn't have time to pick out the perfect ring but...
He opened the box, inside was a small plastic ring. The one he had one at the carnival they went on for a school trip. It was the day before he had confessed that he would marry her one day them he disappeared.
"Unmei, I see the recognition in your eyes... I have kept this as a reminder of who you are to me... Would you do me the honour-"
She knelt so that she was the same hight as Yoongi. "Yes... The answer would have always been yes!"
Yoongi slowly lifted the small plastic ring from the box, and he lightly touched her hand so her fingers flexed as he slipped on the plastic ring.
Unmei lifted her hand and stared at the plastic ring on her finger, so many memories flashed through her mind.
All of it was happy memories, her heart had broken the day Yoongi disappeared from her life but after seeing him again, it made all the painful memories fade away.
Yoongi looked at her in the eye, he was a bit unsure of what she was feeling. "Unmei-"
Unmei reached a handout and pressed it against his lips. "It is perfect Yoongi and you don't have to worry... You have made me the happiest woman."
Yoongi blinked and Unmei removed her fingers, Yoongi opened his mouth, "On the contrary, Unmei. You have made me the happiest man on earth."
They both slowly rose and Yoongi embraced Unmei, kissing the top of her head and holding her close. His heartfelt lighter, but it was skipping a few heartbeats.
He had just asked his childhood crush to become his wife. Wife, that had a nice ring to it, he wanted to turn and introduce her to Yumei.
His heart faltered and turned his gaze back to the hospital, Unmei followed his gaze, "Do you want to go-"
Her voice was drowned out by the hospital door bursting open and Jimin stepped outside. "Yoongi! They brought-"
Jimin's paused as he saw Yoongi holding a girl in his arms that he had never seen before. "Am I interrupting?"
Yoongi shook his head, he removed his arms around Unmei and took her hand in his and walked up the steps with Unmei following him.
They stopped before him, "Jimin this is Unmei, my fiance."
Unmei and Jimin both blinked, Unmei thought he might keep it under the wraps and Jimin got a sneaky grin. "Fiance?" He stuck out his hand, so this is the girl who broke Yumei's leg. "I am Jimin, it is a pleasure to meet you."
Unmei took his hand, "It is a pleasure to meet you."
Jimin smiled and let go of her hand and turning to Yoongi he said, "We have news about Yuki."
Yoongi stiffened, he would have to tell Unmei the truth but not tonight. He has to make sure that Yumei was safe first. "What news, do you bring Jimin?"
It broke Unmei's heart to hear Yoongi so defeated. Jimin took a deep breath. "Her body is trying to fight off an infection."
"An infection? What type-"
Jimin averted his gaze, "It would seem she got the infection after her leg surgery."
Yoongi didn't know how to reply, that was bad. It could be lethal to her because of her weak immune system. It wasn't as strong like that of normal people... she could die. "Can we see her?"
Jimin bit his lip, "I sent Namjoon to see her first."
Yoongi felt the anger rising in his blood, but he took in a deep breath. It might be better to let Namjoon see her first. "Alright, should we wait then?"
Jimin's gaze turned from Yoongi to Unmei, "If you want too."
What kind of question was that? Of course, he wanted to and he turned to Unmei. "Do you want to go home?"
She shook her head, "I will stay as long as you want me too."
Yoongi smiled at her words, one of the reasons why he wanted to marry her. She had a big heart, "Thank you."
Jimin opened the door and looked back. 'Yoongi, you deserve this.' The followed him back to the waiting area and they sat down in silence.
The doctor showed Namjoon to Yumei's hospital room. His heart was thundering in his chest, he had heard what the doctor said but he didn't take the information to heart.
Yumei was strong and she will get past this. No matter what, the doctor opened the room, "She is out cold. But talk to her as much as you can."
Namjoon nodded at him and entered the room, Yumei laid on the bed with an IV sticking out of her arm. He rushed to her side and took her hand, "Yu- Yum- Yumei?"
Her eyes remained closed, he squeezed her hand lightly. "Whatever you do... Please come back to me... I can not go on if you are not in my world anymore."
