CHAPTER 36

YOONGI's P.O.V.

"Yoongi, it's time." Manager Sejin peeked at the door to inform me. I stood from my chair and fixed my suit. My father-in-law's funeral is over and now it's time for me to face the media and clarify all the things that had happened. Sarrah Noona wanted to come with me but I stopped her. I really don't want my family to be dragged in this media powerplay. I took a deep breath before I took my seat at the center of the stage and prepared myself for whatever questions they will be throwing at me.

Before this schedule, I have talked with my bandmates who are like real brothers to me, and with their consent, I will tell everything the media wants to know so that they can leave my family alone.

"Suga-ssi, is it true that you are already married?" One of the female reporters asked and I can't help but smile. I have already anticipated that question and I have no plan to hide my beautiful wife

."Yes, for more than 10 years now." I answered honestly. My answer created a buzz. "Is it also true that you already have a son?" Again, the question made me smile.

"Yes, he is now five years old and an actual spitting image of me." I replied with pride.

"Did the company and members know about this? How did they react?" I was about to answer that question when suddenly a question made my blood boil. "I heard your wife is the only heir of Flowers Bloom Group of Companies. Did you marry her because she was rich? Where is she now?" I felt the sudden rise of my temper, I instinctively stood on my seat.

Manager Sejin immediately approached me and told me to hold my temper because it is never a good idea to fight with media unless I want my private life to be ruined. I took a deep breath and hold my anger. When I got it in control, I returned to my seat and looked at them with tranquility. I need to finish this sooner than later. I don't think I will be able to handle another offending question about my wife or my family.

"I am sorry but any question pertaining to my wife's life will not be answered. Actually, this press conference held today is because I have an important announcement to make." Another loud buzz erupted from the room as I look each member of media in the room. "I have been with BTS for 10 years now. I am grateful to Bang PD-nim, to the staff and employees of Big Hit Entertainment, to my co-members and to all of the A.R.M.Y.s who had supported me since the very beginning. I regret to inform you all that this will be the last time I will be holding a Press Conference because after this, I will retire from being an Idol and will no longer be a part of BTS. I will continue with the producing of songs but will no longer be active in performing. So may I request everybody to please respect my family's privacy. I beg you. Please understand." I bowed ninety degrees before I took my leave hoping that the media will stop making stories about us.

"Are you sure about this, Yoongi?" Manager Sejin asked after he closed the door of the conference room. I was about to answer him when I heard a small voice calling me. "Appa!" My face immediately lit up when I saw my son running towards me with a huge grin on his face. "Yes, hyung. I am sure." I answered without looking at him. I have never felt so sure in my entire life. Now that my family is here, they are my top priority. I knelt down and waited for his hug.

"Baby!" I exclaimed as I kissed his cheek. His hug is so warm that it reaches my heart. "What are you guys doing here?" I asked my wife who is now standing a few feet from us.

We are here to support you of course." She smiled at me and my heart immediately melted. I really love this woman. How can I fall for her over and over again with just a simple smile. I slowly walked towards her while holding our son and kissed her lightly on her lips. I saw her blushed, apparently surprised by my action. When she finally realized what I did she hit me lightly on my arm but I just gave her a cocky smile. We heard someone cleared his throat from a distance and we both looked at manager Sejin and some of the other staffs looking quite shy with our simple public display of affection.
