Chapter Text
"25 years old woman Lee Siyeon, a woman who is fighting for her life on her way to the hospital as we speak, was found by the police department along with a couple of unidentified bodies on an alley near the main street, making them the last victims of-"
"So, are you ready for this? You know I trust you for this job."
"Yes ma'am, I'll do my best."
—
All that she could hear was muffled voices and her own heartbeat more than anything else. Her vision was blurred, she couldn't open her eyes properly, she had both eyes swollen and she couldn't feel almost anything. She knew that she had been stabbed repeatedly, she didn't count how many times, she didn't care, she was going to die.
"Please if there's anything or anyone who has anything to do with the afterlife please let me live, I swear I will change, just please give me another opportunity..."
She knew her words were going nowhere, there was no god, no afterlife, it was all a lie and she was going to sleep for eternity without even having the right to dream. It sucked to think about death but she had to admit that she was going to die, but Gahyeon and Yubin weren't going to, at least not for tonight.
Her mind went numb along with the rest of her body and she let go a last deep breath before going unconscious.
Or that's what she thought.
"Hey! Siyeon! Wake up!"
When she opened her eyes, she looked around, this didn't look like the hospital she was at. The walls were blue, and the couch she was seated on was navy blue, it was the most comfortable couch she had never been on.
"Oh great, I thought you were going to die at this rate... We need to make a deal, asap, you are currently being operated by a group of doctors who can't save you at this point but if you agree to try to become a better person as you said with me as your supervisor, you will live."
"Wait what?"
The blue haired girl was confused. First she wakes up in a blue room with a girl screaming at her to wake up to tell her that she's... dying?! Siyeon couldn't believe what was happening, and she really wasn't in the mood to process all of that information. The other girl clearly knew that and with a push of a button, the tv screen that she had at her right side suddenly lit up.
She could see a group of doctors performing a pretty gruesome surgery on herself. She was unconscious and the doctors were losing her.
The girl in front of her had her brows lifted and she was worriedly biting her lower lip.
This was serious.
"O-okay I will... I WILL!"
Snap!
—
"Yubin! come here immediately."
The short haired girl ran up to where her friend was. She made a gesture towards the tv they had on their living room, a video of Siyeon when she was getting carried to the ambulance was shown along with a picture they must've found from her instagram account.
"W-wait, Siyeon?! Wasn't she supposed to get the pot from Mark and just come back home after? What happened? We have to find her!"
"Shush, it looks like that fucking bastard owed money to some big fish and they sent people to get him and his friend, Siyeon was just on the way..."
Yubin sat on the couch, she couldn't process all of that information. Siyeon was apparently dying in a hospital, the people who she usually got pot from were now dead and Gahyeon was acting chill about it.
"Yubin why are you even freaking out? I'm sure she's okay."
"They just said she was stabbed twelve times, we should get going!!"
"Holy shit you're right."
The younger girl had a genuine shocked expression on her face, it looked like she wasn't even paying attention to the tv, she just saw Siyeon's face on it and her mind went blank after hearing about her being taken to a hospital.
—
When she opened her eyes, bright lights and a white ceiling were the first thing she saw.
Finally, this does look like a hospital. She thought while she tried to take a seat on the bed. She felt pain all over her right side and belly area but she didn't care, she needed to know how she looked.
"Hey stay there, don't move too much or you'll hurt yourself more."
A soft voice spoke to her and she turned her head to meet the eyes of the person that was talking. It was the same girl that she had seen on her weird dream. Was that even a dream?
"Who are you? Why are you here?"
"Right, I didn't introduce myself earlier because you know, you were dying. My name is Kim Yoohyeon and I'll be kind of like your guardian angel to see if you actually become a better person and even help you!"
"So that was real..."
"Yup! Minji told me that you were being a bit rough with other people but that she saw something in you so she wanted me to try to soften you up a little bit into becoming a new and a better person."
"Wait, who's Minji? Is she another angel?"
"Oh no, she's my boss, you guys think that god is a man with a beard and all of that but she's just Minji, she could easily look exactly like your neighbor, or mine! Wait no I don't own a house, but you know what I mean."
Siyeon zoned out, she was processing the new information she had just received when suddenly, the door burst open.
"Siyeon! Jesus fucking christ, we've been on two hospitals already, we didn't know where you were taken to."
Gahyeon was the first one who quickly gave her a hug, followed by a groan by Siyeon, the pressure the short girl was pulling her into, was probably making some stitches burst open.
Yubin was next and when she hugged her, she saw the slightly pained expression on the girl, she did it lightly while patting her back.
They didn't seem to notice the other girl in the room.
"Gahyeon, Yubin, I'd like to introduce you to Yoohyeon, she's..."
"I'm the one who called the police."
Both girls looked at her with curiosity, they knew Siyeon didn't like meeting new people and that she wasn't comfortable around people who looked as bright at that girl.
There was a clear difference between them just looking at their clothes. The newcomers were wearing all black and grey clothes with some details in colors like gold or red and on the contrary, Yoohyeon was wearing a white blouse and some light jeans.
They were confused, but they would interrogate their friend at home, not at an hospital, it wasn't the right place to do so.
"So um... I'm sorry I didn't get you guys what you wanted, I'll repay you for it, not with drugs though, I'm done with that."
"I understand, but help us find another person to buy from at least? You know more people than we do, Siyeon plea-"
"I said no, and I'm not gonna let you two fall down the rabbit hole that I fell in five years ago."
Yoohyeon keep looking at them, trying to not make the situation more uncomfortable she decided to get up and head out to wait at the corridor until both of the girls went back home.
Gahyeon followed her closely, she felt like the new girl wasn't telling the truth. Was she the one who committed the murders and wanted to silence Siyeon? Who really was she?
The taller girl had noticed that she was being followed, and it wasn't hard to deduce who it was so she decided to take a couple of unexpected turns and disappear into thin air, leaving the shorter girl confused about where she went, walking on another direction trying to find her.
Yoohyeon made sure no one was looking when she appeared once again just by the door to Siyeon's room, and waited there until she saw Yubin leave.
"You know where my friend went?"
She signaled the way.
"Thank you."
And with that, she went back inside.
She looked at Siyeon, there was some blood on her bandages, probably from all the hugging earliest, so she decided to call in a doctor to check up on her. She sat back in the chair she was previously seated on and waited in silence.
"Why are you doing all of this for me?"
"As I said before, I'm kinda like your guardian angel now, I'm going to make sure you stay alive and become a better person, not only for yourself but for your closest friends too. Didn't you see how they doubted for a couple of seconds making you become what you were again? They will follow your lead, I'm sure."
Soon enough, a nurse came in, looked at the bloody bandages her patient had and she took care of it. Meanwhile Siyeon grabbed Yoohyeon's hand out of reflex, it hurt like hell getting the bandages changed for new ones, especially getting her wounds cleaned up again.
She never let go of her hand and she even smiled at her. Was she human now? Was she an angel? She didn't know what to call her, and even if she didn't want to admit it, her smile made her feel calm, and holding her hand even if it was something insignificant for her most of the times, it made her feel that for once, she wasn't going to endure all the pain alone.
