As he ascended the staircase, Taehyung couldn't shake the sense of frustration that gnawed at him. He understood his mother's concern for his well-being, but he couldn't help but feel trapped by her protective measures.
All he wanted was to see Yazia, but it seemed even that simple desire was out of reach. Reaching his room, Taehyung flopped down onto his bed, feeling a wave of disappointment wash over him. Taehyung closed his eyes and let out a frustrated groan.
"Can't I just meet her, I'll try again I can't just let this go." with a resolute nod, Taehyung made a silent vow to himself. He would not give up on this. He refused to let anything stand in the way of his love for Yazia.
He knew he would have to be clever, to think outside the box, but he was willing to do whatever it took to see the woman who held his heart. Taehyung sat up on his bed, his mind buzzing with possibilities. He wouldn't rest until he found a way to see Yazia, no matter what it took.
Taehyung looked around the room and his gaze went towards the window. A smirk made its way to his face. Taehyung stood up with a jerk and felt a sharp pain in his head. Wincing in pain he sat back on bed.
"It's not a good idea to jump out of the window", Taehyung's frustration simmered beneath the surface as he lay on his bed, his earlier excitement deflated by the harsh reality of his situation. Jumping out of the window was reckless and impractical, and he knew it. With a heavy sigh, he dropped his body onto the mattress once more, feeling the weight of helplessness pressing down on him.
He hadn't even bothered to change out of the suit he had been wearing. Taehyung let out another frustrated noise, the sound echoing in the empty room. In a few minutes, exhaustion crept over him, and Taehyung drifted into slumber.

"My warrior..." Taehyung's whisper was barely audible, a smile gracing his lips as he watched Yazia seated amidst a sea of vibrant flowers. The grassland stretched out before her. It was colorful the flowers surrounded her She wore a flowing white abaya, her hijab framing her face like a halo against the backdrop of blossoms.
For Taehyung, the scene was nothing short of mesmerizing. He couldn't tear his gaze away from Yazia, his heart swelling with admiration for her strength and resilience. With each step he took towards her, the world seemed to tremble, the beauty around them fading into oblivion.
In a flash, everything crumbled around him, the flowers withering and the grass turning to ashes beneath his feet. Desperate to reach her, Taehyung sprinted towards Yazia as she began to fade before his eyes.
"No... Stop, you can't..." His pleas were drowned out by the chaos, but he pressed on, his heart pounding with a mixture of fear and determination. He reached out to grasp her, but she slipped through his fingers like smoke, dissipating into thin air before he could even touch her.

"No... No..." Taehyung's anguished cries filled the air as he was jolted awake, his body drenched in sweat and tears streaming down his cheeks. The memory of losing her haunted him, leaving him trembling with grief and regret.
Took him several minutes to regain his composure, his sobs gradually subsiding as he sat up in bed. Blinking away the remnants of his nightmare, he reached for the nightstand, only to find the water jug empty.
Taking long, deliberate breaths, Taehyung fought to steady his racing heart. "If the dream is this scary then how harsh will the reality be" Taehyung felt his body shiver at his own words.
"I don't even want to think about it," Taehyung muttered, shaking off the unsettling thoughts that threatened to consume him. With a weary sigh, he reached for his phone.
As he glanced at the screen, his frustration only grew at the sight of the late hour. "Almost 6 PM," he groaned in frustration.
Now he has no way to see Yazia. He needs to wait. "But I can't just wait", Taehyung's tone was desperate. "It's all because of Mom," he muttered under his breath, his tone laced with bitterness. With a determined set to his jaw.
Taehyung headed out of the room, holding his head feeling a little discomfort but walked out of the room. He was frustrated and just wanted to let it out and he just wanted to complain.
Taehyung walked downstairs and saw his mom In the living room he headed towards her standing in front of her. "Why don't you let me go to work today? I really want to go," Taehyung whined, his tone tinged with desperation as he pleaded his case. His mother sighed, shaking her head in response.
"Calm down... are you feeling okay? Any pain in your head?" she asked, her concern genuine as she studied her son's troubled expression. He winced in frustration. "No, I am not feeling ok... I don't know about my head but my heart is in pain", He let out dramatic words and placed a hand on his chest.
His mother's expression softened, but she remained firm in her decision. "You just can't go with stitches in your head. At least wait until they are removed," she insisted.
Taehyung scrunched his nose in frustration, unwilling to accept his mother's reasoning. "I went to the company the very next day I was born. Then now I can't go when it's been two days since my accident?" he retorted, his frustration evident in his voice.
"It was your Dad's fault. He took you when I was asleep. I would have never let a newborn go anywhere out of the house," she shot back, the tension between mother and son reaching a boiling point.
"Stop dragging me into your fight" The voice of Mr. Kim stunned both and they looked toward him. He was not alone Yazia and Ayzal both stood beside him awkwardly not knowing what to do.
Taehyung and his mother both were surprised but their expressions were far from familiar. Where Mrs. Kim smiled happily. Taehyung looked pale like someone drained his blood out.
He saw Yazia standing there. The thing that gave a shiver to his spine was the same white abaya he saw in the dream. All the flashes of his dream played in his mind and he felt his eye teared up. His mind races up with thoughts. Taehyung's heart skipped a beat as he saw Yazia, her presence invoking a sense of both comfort and unease within him.
"the meeting was important neither I could just leave it nor I trouble you that's why I took him with me", his father said to his wife, Taehyung was in a daze trying to process what was happening. Yazia looked at Mr. Kim amused.
"oh Allah!! You really took him to work the next day he was born?" Yazia's tone was amazement he told her this but she thought he was just exaggerating. He snapped out by Yazia's voice and maintained his composure. He rubbed his eyes and took a breath.
"Stop thinking about a nightmare it was not reality, just a dream", Taehyung reminded himself in his mind. Taehyung found himself momentarily captivated by Yazia's laughter
"He did it! I was so scared about where my son went and then found he was in the office. He even took Taehyung to a meeting and did the whole meeting with Taehyung in his lap", Mrs. Kim chuckled telling this past funny story. Mr. Kim shook his head in embarrassment and excused himself to get fresh.
Yazia and Ayzal both laughed with her. Yazia looked at Taehyung who had a faint smile on his lips for a moment she wanted to return that smile but looked away instantly. She mentally slapped herself for thinking this. Mrs. Kim pulled them inside the living room making them sit on the couch and started talking about random stuff.
Yazia sat there on the couch talking to Mrs. Kim. Every now and then, she stole a glance at Taehyung, who stood nearby with his characteristic boxy smile. Catching his eye, she held his gaze for a moment before rolling her eyes and looking away, prompting a chuckle from Taehyung.
His laughter drew the attention of everyone in the room, including his mother, who smirked at him and teased, "Why are you standing there like a statue? Come, sit down, we have guests." Taehyung raised his eyebrows in surprise but quickly followed his mother's words, moving to the single sofa beside Yazia, his eyes never leaving her for a moment.
His eyes never left Yazia for even a moment. Taehyung's mother narrowed her eyes and looked at him from top to bottom he was still in the suit. "Do you really sleep in your suit?", His mother inquired. Yazia and Ayzal glance at him, their expressions varying from confusion to amusement.
His mother's inquiry about his suit drew attention to his attire, and Taehyung couldn't help but chuckle nervously at the realization that he had indeed slept in his suit. "I, uh, I guess I must have fallen asleep in it," he stammered, his words tinged with sheepishness.
"Were you really serious about wearing a suit everywhere?", " his mother persisted a hint of disbelief in her tone. Taehyung looked taken aback, at a loss for words. Before he could respond, Yazia interjected with a laugh, shaking her head. "Don't be surprised, Auntie. He can do anything. One day, you'll wake up and find him swimming in a suit."
"I'm not that absurd," Taehyung retorted defensively, earning laughter from the group. He was annoyed to end but Yazia laughing was enough for him to get cooled down He couldn't fathom when she had become so precious to him, every little thing related to her suddenly holding immense significance in his eyes.
"Anything for her happiness. I'd gladly play the fool a thousand times over," he mused silently, his gaze lingering on Yazia with adoration. But this adoration didn't escape Ayzal's notice. She narrowed her eyes, noticing Taehyung looking at Yazia with hearts in his eyes.
"How obvious can anyone be?" Ayzal thought to herself, amused by the transparent display of affection. She glanced between Yazia and Taehyung but chose to remain silent, not saying anything loud.
"Ayzal, I've made biriyani. You'll have to tell me how it turned out and give me tips to improve," Mrs. Kim interjected, drawing Ayzal's attention away from the silent exchange between Yazia and Taehyung. Ayzal smiled under her veil, touched by Mrs. Kim's gesture. "I'm sure it'll be delicious because you cooked it with love."
"You're the sweetest girl I've ever met, Ayzal," Mrs. Kim continued, earning a smile of appreciation from Yazia. "I have to agree," Yazia chimed in, adding more compliments. "Ayzal was born with extra sugar."
"I guess she got your share of sugar too," Taehyung whispered with a deadpan expression, loud enough for Yazia to hear. She shot him a glare in response, causing Taehyung to struggle to contain his laughter. He raised his hands in apology, mouthing a "sorry," while Yazia simply rolled her eyes at him. It was a peculiar satisfaction he felt whenever Yazia reacted like that.
"Make yourself at home, okay? I'll just go check on things in the kitchen," Mr. Kim said, receiving nods and smiles from both sisters. But before he could rise, a loud rumbling emanated from the main door, followed by a thunderous thud as it swung open. Ayzal flinched at the noise. All three of them were almost unfazed.
Mrs. Kim cast a knowing gaze at the newcomer. "Who else could it be but you, Joonie?" she remarked, eyeing Namjoon, the culprit behind the commotion. Namjoon met her gaze with embarrassment. "I was just trying to open the door, I promise it didn't break this time," he defended himself sheepishly.
"Causing chaos as usual, I see," Taehyung quipped to his mother, who simply chuckled and asked Namjoon to come in don't stand up like a criminal there. Yazia shook her head she got use to of Namjoon's destructive energy in the time she worked with him it just don't surprise her. Ayzal was shocked still trying to lower her heart beat due to loud noise.
Ayzal looked at Namjoon and raised eyebrows. "He look familiar", The thought in her mind raised but she just looked away not dwelling on it much. "I'm here too!" Ha-Joon announced, appearing from behind Namjoon. He darted inside, practically bounding toward Mrs. Kim and enveloping her in a hug. "Did you miss me, beautiful lady?" he teased, earning a chuckle from Mrs. Kim as she patted his back.
"Where have you been all this time? I was so used to seeing you around here that I felt like something was missing in my house," Mrs. Kim played along with Ha-Joon's antics.
"Mom, tell this guy he's not allowed in my house. He ghosted me just to go on vacation with his girlfriend," Taehyung exclaimed dramatically, playing his part as the resident drama queen. "Wow... What happened to him? He's never been this affectionate with me," Ha-Joon replied, matching Taehyung's melodramatic tone perfectly.
"Ignore them they both are just idiots" , Namjoon said and finally walked inside and sat on the couch. "I brought my girlfriend too," Ha-Joon announced, wiggling his eyebrows mischievously. "Where is she then? Call her inside," Mrs. Kim instructed, Ha-Joon dashed outside. Ayzal sat there, utterly bewildered, trying to make sense of the unfolding situation.
Yazia, on the other hand, remained composed, having encountered Ha-Joon's antics countless times before. However, his mention of bringing his girlfriend piqued her interest. "Ha-Joon's girlfriend..." she murmured, her eyes widening with realization. "Soo-Jin," she exclaimed, just as the girl in question made her entrance.
Mrs. Kim greeted the newcomer with a warm smile, rising to welcome her. However, her smile faltered as her gaze shifted to the person standing behind Soo-Jin. Taehyung, who had been sporting a cheerful grin, froze in shock at the sight before him. His smile vanished as he locked eyes with the unwanted visitor.
Taehyung uttered in disbelief, his voice barely above a whisper. "Leena."
