BTS Caretaker ( BTS x OC)

Chapter 102: Solicitous III

Entering the luxurious lavish home, her eyes scanned the interior admiring it along her way. The maid brought her to another wing of the house which she assumed where his office would be. Taking a deep breath, she dragged her heavy legs entering the office and not to forget thanking the maid before the woman disappeared from her sight.

"You made it" the old man tore his gaze from the pile of document in front of him to Seul. She wished how earth could just swallow her right now rather than being in the same room as his. Seul mustered her courage and approached the wooden table slowly, "I am here to submit my letter as you requested" placing the letter on the table, she took a step back.

"I will get going now" she mentally screamed to quickly exit the suffocating room and normalize her breathing. Mr Kwon smug, taking his time to say this one thing that could stop her from walking away through that door.

She reached for the door knob and before she could open the door, Seul heard him chucked lowly "I know what you are looking for. It is your biological father, right? What if..." he stood up from his leather swivel chair, walking stealthily towards Seul.

Her brows flinched as he continued "What if, I know who your real father is?" he minimized the gap between them.

Seul's eyes shot open realizing what this man tried to offer her, "Wh-at... nonsense is that..." her eyes threw daggers as she backed away, pressing her back against the cold door. The older man cackled in delight watching how much power he had on Seul.

"Not nonsense, but I do know where to find your real father"

"I don't trust you"

"Really? Did your mother ever tell you about your real father?" he brought his face closer to her, teasing the girl in process. Her lower lips quivered in fear "I know... he is one my father's best friend" she held back her tears from hitting the ground.

He nodded "True, but have you seen any photo of him?"

"Why does it matter?!" she snapped.

"You have such a loud mouth, it could be used for better thing in the future" he rubbed his thumb over her lips only to be slapped away by Seul harshly. "Don't touch me" she gritted her teeth in anger, feeling offended by his sexual remarks.

"Alright, I won't touch you. But that won't change the fact that I know where to find your real father" he tilted his head studying her expression. It was a mixture of pain and anger. "Your dad is closer than you think" he whispered in her ears.

Seul shook her head frantically "I will never listen to a bastard like you, stay the hell away from me" Mr Kwon let out a sarcastic laugh.

"Stay the hell away from you? Even blood can't tear us apart Seul" he snorted. "I will spare you for now but remember, my arms always open for you in case you need me" he twisted the door knob, opening the door for her.

With one final glance, she scurried off the room using the last ounce of strength in her body afraid that the bipolar man might change his mind in the middle and decided to lock her up or kidnap her. Once she felt the cold wind hit her skin, she was relieved to survive the battle with demon inside.

Thinking about his words earlier, could it be true that he knew who's his father. Hence, there was a chance for her to find him. She realized it was too early to put a trust on his word especially it came from Mr Kwon.

Seul still had her mother, she is the key to every questionable thing in her life.

If she could dig it from her mother, then she didn't need Mr Kwon's help. He wouldn't do it for free, there's always be an exchange of something every time people seal a deal with him.

Her loud ringtone brought her out of her trance, and she answered without even bother to look at the caller id "Seul! Thank god you are alive. Have you met him? Did he do something? Are you okay?" his panic voice rose from one octave to another.

"Nothing happen so can you calm down? Save your voice for tomorrow's concert. I delivered the letter and leave before he could say anything" it was not the perfect time to tell Jin about the things in relation to her father. She would tell him when she's sure Kwon's words were not a mere bluff.

Jin disagreed "I can't stay calm knowing you are with him! Don't do that again. You are scaring me woman. Are you on your way home?" she hummed a soft yes and started walking.

"Then I will give you a company until you reach home" his crazy ideas made her smile.

"Don't be silly, I am perfectly fine. Go to sleep Jin"

"This woman.. It is 9PM and you are sending me to bed already?"

Her nose scrunched up in annoyance "You have to wake up early tomorrow nevertheless, it is not a bad idea to sleep at this time" she defended her earlier statement.

"I am walking you home, that is my final decision! Now, how's your day?" her eyes were rolled back digesting his cliché side, though deep down inside she could say this was a romantic gesture. With Jin's soft voice rang in her ears along her journey back home, she feared nothing in this world.

His voice was gentle and soothing enough that it drove a part of the fear away.

With his voice, it shortens the distance to her home. Not to mention, every time she laughed at Jin's silly dad jokes, half of her burdened were being lifted from her shoulder. Entering her building, she climbed the stairs tiredly unlocking the door. Kicking her shoes at the corner, she promised to clean it up the first thing when she woke up tomorrow. Seul hurried inside her room with Jin voice nagged in the background urging her to head to bed as soon as she reached home.

"Are you in your room?"

"Yes, Mr Kim. I am in my room" she threw her exhausted body on the bed, throwing arm over her head.

"Good, now get changed and rest. Text me a good night when you are done" Jin let out a soft chuckle.

"You are so demanding. Not even my boyfriend but you are acting like one" murmuring with eyes closed, she stretched a little.

He argued "I just walked you back home so appreciate me" Seul's soft giggle tickled his heart. He sunk on his bed, laying on the cold mattress with a foolish smile across his face.

"So full of yourself, why I am not surprised"

"Consider this as our first date" he muttered.

"What?" bewildered, Seul sat up trying to brain the meaning behind those shady words. She heard his heavy breathing at the end of the line, as he continued "About, me walking you back home, consider it a date" out of a sudden his voice turned fifty shades darker and romantic, enticing every part of her body.

What the hell Kim Seokjin? That is cringy! Jin facepalmed.

"Don't say anything, pretend that you misheard that. Oh gosh, I must go. Don't forget to text me a good night! Bye Seul!" he spat the words out like flying bullets without giving the girl a chance to say anything and hung up.

Jin rolled on his bed, screaming in the pillow blaming his sloppy and foolish action. He was worried if that scare the girl away. Grunting in frustration, he felt like he just screwed up his blooming relationship with Seul.

Just what is wrong with me, Jin was frustrated and feeling a little remorseful over his action.
