Kyuhyun had always been good at math. He was part of the math club, top in his math classes, and would have probably pursued something in that profession had he not chosen to be a singer.
Naturally, he knew all the calculations since the incident.
It happened 329 days after he debuted with Super Junior.
-
The car flipped only twice.
-
The ambulances took 46 minutes to get them all out of the wreckage.
-
In three days he lost consciousness 8 times during which cried out in pain 12 times.
-
He was in the hospital 4 days when he woke up without passing out for the first time. Shindong and Eunhyuk were there to greet him, and tell him good bye.
-
On the 5th day he noticed Teukie on the other side of the room. He had come to visit him in the ICU, to see how he was coping. He tried to get him to talk, mentioning the 170 stitches now adorning his face and back.
-
Day 11. Teukie still tries to talk to him, and as much as he tries, he can't talk back. Eeteuk says he's being released today. Kyuhyun can only stutter a whispering goodbye as the leader leaves.
-
1 month. Teukie was the first one to come after the doctors called saying he could walk on his own now. The leader held him for 9 minutes, crying into his hospital robe and thanking God or any other deity that might have been listening.
-
78 days before he's released.
101 days before the nightmares go away. 80 days waking up crying in Teukie's arms. 72 cups of hot chocolate to help him go back to sleep.
Countless hugs, endearments, and encouragements from Teukie-umma.
He owes Teukie more than he'll ever know for giving him back his voice, his passion, his life. Numbers would never compare.

Personally I don't really know where this came from. It was going to be one continuous story, but the flow didn't seem right with the numbers.
Liked it? Think I'm going senile? Please, lend me your thoughts~
