Chapter 10: Here comes trouble

The situation was perhaps the most difficult situation of your life, you thought.

The moment Taehyung collapsed you weren't late to make a screeching noise, though for a second you thought he was trying to prank you. But then you realized, he had really collapsed there.

How could he act so indifferent when he was hurting inside? How could he conceal his pain and talk to you the most normal way possible. He didn't even complain a bit!

Your mind was in a rush and there were so many thoughts rampaging through your neurons. Still the first thing you did was get him inside, which wasn't as hard it was supposed to. The latter was light as a feather.

But now that he laid on your bed you realized his conscience wasn't totally gone. He was still breathing heavy, chest heaving up and down faster and he was sweating a lot. As if he was sleeping and having the worst nightmare of his life. 

This must be a cold. He must have a fever!

Before calling in a doctor you decided to do your best to subside his fever and it was honestly one of the things you were best at. Since you lived most of your life by yourself and had to treat your own self while being sick.

So you didn't waste a second to run to get wet towel, some cold medicine which you had a lot in your house.

But after coming back to him, your mind cloudy and body tensed, you were just worried. It was your first time treating a sick person.

But he wasn't a person. And you realized that once again as soon as your shaky hand reached his forehead.

He was cold.

Freezing cold.

Yet he was sweating, squirming in his sleep, his throat looked parched and at that moment your mind got lost in the dark. He was fine, he looked completely fine even just a few moments ago by the door.

The thought of something bad could happen to him made your hands start to tremble. You had to call a doctor, you didn't know what to do in this situation. This didn't look normal, not when even in this state he wouldn't let you place a blanket on top of him.

Shakily you reached for your phone from your pocket but that's when you noticed something else.

His clothes looked too big for him. They weren't the same as before, when he was okay.

A loud gasp left your mouth without realizing and you stood up from your position by the bed. Your phone slipped through your fingers and fell on the floor with a loud thud. At that moment, you felt like you'd lose yourself too.

In front of your eyes, Taehyung was shrinking. His body had started trembling and changing shapes, slowly shrinking to a smaller size. He didn't look as tall, his face was smaller, lying in that bed he just kept getting smaller and smaller by the minute.

Though it wasn't happening as fast but you could see it. At that moment, you couldn't stand still. You wouldn't lie that at first you weren't weirded out but now you wanted to cry, in thought of something might happen to him.

Was he going back to his tiny fairy size? That would be okay by you but would he be all right? He clearly didn't seem alright.

So you ran to the door. Your mind not working properly and you kept asking yourself who would you go to help for.

But opening the door you were stopped. Your frantic eyes met the man standing before the door and all of a sudden he looked really familiar. Where had you seen him before?

"I'm Kim Seokjin, we've met before." The man in purple shirt and jeans said politely. His hair dark brown, silky fringes covering his forehead just perfectly.

"Now if you'd step aside, we need to help Taehyung I assume," he uttered and you stepped away, suddenly you were fully trusting this stranger.

Wait. The person, where you had seen him was-

"The cashier guy from WacDonalds?" You almost screeched making him turn back at you. At first you couldn't recognize him as he was wearing a cap and that red iconic shirt that day. "Are you a fairy?" You weren't late asking that too.

"Yes, I am. In fact I'm the eldest of them," he replied looking a little baffled with your urgency.

"Then please..." You didn't waste a second pulling him by his arm to your bed room where Taehyung laid. "Please, please help him. I don't know what's wrong with him!" Your words came out raggy and breathy, inside you were panicking.

One look at Taehyung and he already looked so much smaller in size compared to before. The changes were still going on and he still looked as uncomfortable as before.

Watching the brown haired guy just observing him intently made you even more impatient. "Please, what's wrong with him? Is he sick? He was okay but all of a sudden-"

"Sarang, stop," Seokjin suddenly said taking your hands in his one's gently. And you realized how much your hands were shaking but then, suddenly you felt like you were starting to slowly feel relaxed a little.

"It's going to be okay. He just couldn't get adjusted to earth's atmosphere that is. He has never left heaven before, unlike us. This was his first time coming down to earth. I'm sure he had told you that on his first day," he said in a soothing tone and you nodded.

Though one look at Taehyung struggling in the bed made tears fall from your eyes almost when his grip on your hands got a little firmer. "Look at me Sarang, take deep breaths. He's going to be okay."

So you looked at his brown eyes. Strangely you felt like you were melting into them, as if everything around you had stopped and you were at the center of the earth. You felt calmer, and, calmer.

"Does that mean he's been feeling sick for a long time?" You asked, way more calmly this time.

"Yes, I suppose so." You heard his low soothing voice. "He must've been feeling sick the moment he got here. We all went through it in our pasts, just the symptoms are always different. The earth's atmosphere doesn't match at all with us Sarang. There is also a lot more negativity which can affect our aura."

"Yes, I understand," you replied giving him a small nod and he let go off your hand.

"I don't want others to worry for him and come down here all together. That'd be a total chaos at heaven. I'm just gonna get some medicine for him without telling anyone so can you wait for a bit?" He said as casually as if he had known you for years and you didn't mind at all.

"Uh.. Yeah. By the way, how did you know he was sick? Do you have a radar or something maybe?"

He let out a small laugh hearing your question. "I'm sorry, I'm stupid." You immediately apologized.

"No it's okay." He shook a hand in the air to show it was fine. "We all take turns to come here and see if things are going alright. I on the other hand, don't have much to do and can't keep my nose in my business so I stayed a little more. And he's our small brother; if we are close, we just kind of feel it if something's off. So you're not totally wrong-"

"Sarang?" A sheepish low voice made him stop and look ahead of you to the bed. His eyebrows got scrunched and words stopped right then and there.

"W-who's that?" Again that meek little voice asked. Before you could look back Seokjin held tightly of your shoulder.

"Look I need to go else he'd start crying when he sees me. I'm going to bring some clothes from his childhood with the medicine so give me time till evening."

And with a whoosh of wind, he was gone. Disappearing like he wasn't even there. What a weird guy!

But wait, clothes from Taehyung's childhood? What did he mean?

"Sarang?" With that you finally looked back.

And you couldn't believe your eyes.

On top of your bed sat a small boy probably six or seven years old with blonde fluffy hair, big doe eyes, rosy and puffy cheeks wearing a shirt that was overly big for him.

"What's happening?" The little boy mumbled by himself in his meek voice. He brought his small hands closer to him but his blank expression didn't change much.

"My head hurts, I can't even think." Then he looked up at you. "What's happening Sarang?"

Oh lordy, it was Taehyung. It was freaking Taehyung in a small body!
