His eyes fluttered open but squinted when it felt like something poked his eyes. Groan left his lips as he shuffled in his seat, trying to regain his strength. He slowly sat up but winced when he felt the sharp pain in his head. His hand went up and brushed his head, hissing in pain. Feeling something wet on his hand, he checked it and saw his blood smeared on it.
He fisted his hand before his eyes wandering around the capsule. They caught a small white box and he took it before sighing in relief, knowing that it was a first aid kit. Without hesitation, he took out all the necessities before starting to bandage up his wound.
After that, he took a peek out the window and realised he was surrounded by the dark abyss, embedded with twinkling stars. The planet earth was not in sight. He closed his eyes in frustration and leaned back on the chair before letting out a shaky breath.
Despite his fear and anxiety, he was able to pull himself together and get his fighting spirit up. He sat up straight before looking around once again. He spotted a few canned foods and bottles of water. Though there were a few, they won't last long.
Taehyun quickly shook off the negativity and averted his eyes to the monitors in front of him. He inhaled before starting to work on it, trying to find a way to send out a signal so the searching team could find him.
He thought that was all it took. He thought he would be back home the next day or possibly hours later, but no. To his nightmare, it seemed like he would be stuck there for a while. That was when he started recording logs because he was scared. Even if he couldn't hear her voice, he wanted her to hear his because it pained him to know that their last conversation was when he left, not to mention their conversation then wasn't that happy either.
He then looked at the screen before looking through it, trying to find out how to start the log.

Static filled the screen but it slowly cleared, revealing the man's porcelain skin, huge eyes and nose. Though his lips were chapped, they were still beautiful.
"Ah! Finally, it works!" He exclaimed. Seeing the numbers running, he cleared his throat knowing he was being recorded. He quickly combed his hair and huffed before smiling widely.
"Okay... Hello, to whoever's watching this!" He greeted before the silence seeped in. "I'm sorry, it got awkward." He laughed awkwardly, rubbing his nape. His eyes then stared back at the screen again, pulling his lips into a smile. "Today is January 20 and it has been two days since I'm....stuck here in this space capsule." He sighed as he looked around the capsule and took a canned food nearby him, showing it to the screen. "There are canned foods so hopefully I manage till help comes."
He set the can aside and looked over at the green radar before staring back at the screen. "I sent a signal and I am not sure if the searching team has detected it yet but uh... yeah... I am doing this log just in case."
Once again he fell into silence. He swallowed a lump in his throat as his eyes wandered around and his legs started to shake. His throat felt dry so his frantic hands wandered around to look for a bottle of water. When he found it, he opened the cap before gulping down the water but he stopped, realising something. He stared at it and his grip on the bottle tightened. "I should save this up." He placed it down, sighing in defeat.
He turned to the screen and his lips pulled into a soft smile. "Hana, how are you?" He asked. "I hope you're doing fine. Since I am not home, you're probably happy that you don't have to kick my ass every morning to wake me up." He laughed, though his heart squeezed.
He fiddled with his fingers as he reminisced his memory with his wife. "I miss you." He bit his lips as his eyes lowered. "Maybe...I should have listened to you." He murmured and it was silent until a sob made its escape from his lips. "Sorry I will end the log now. Goodbye sweetheart."
The log ended.
For those who don't know yet, Taehyun is an astronaut and this world book setting is in space. If you checked the tags in my book, sci-fi is one of the genres. Anyways thank you for reading <3
