chapter 12.5

Taehyung's pov

It was getting late and I had to get areas tablets to her before 3. She and Jungkook had been outside since the early morning, talking about things and I just sat inside, tidying up the place.

Getting up from the window bench, I went to the kitchen to fix up some lunch for his mother. I set her tablets on a saucer and I poured them both a tall glass of home made fruit juice.

I went out onto the porch with the old fashioned floral serving tray containing the eatables and the medication, setting it on the table.

"Mrs Jeon!" I called out.
"It's time to eat!"

Not long after I called, I saw Jungkook turning the corner alone, jogging up to the porch where I still stood.

My eyes couldn't help.but fall onto the boys exposed cheekbones. He wasn't eating again and- wait.

That's not my problem.

He's not my problem.

"My mother says she wants to eat in the Rose garden so I'm just gonna-" he moved in before me and took the tray from the table.

"Is it okay..? I mean with you."

I just simply nodded, finding the fact that he had asked permission to do so quite weird.

The boy turned around and started walking back around th corner, tray in hand. When I saw him vanish out of sight, I went back inside.

On my way to the kitchen, I heard a tiny, tiny commotion such as objects being moved and cutlery being banged.

I was sure I was the only one in the house at this point... Wasn't I?

"Hello?" I called out, inching closer to the kitchen entrance.

"Anybody there?" Not going to lie, my heart rate suddenly rose due to the anxiety of someone being in the house. My house has been broken into before and I still.live with that fear of someone breaking in and entering again.

Bracing myself for whatever was happening in that kitchen, I entered it in one swift movement, only to find a little girl, coughing out powder which seemed to have spilled everywhere around the kitchen.

The floors, the counters, the cupboards were adorned with the creme coloured powder.

Oh yes, Jungkook had brought his children over too. That had totally slipped my mind.

"Hello, can I help you?"

The little girl quickly turned around to look at me with surprise. The sudden turn caused her to lose balance off the metal mixing bowl she was standing on and fall down on her butt.

I chuckled at the silly girl and walked over to help her up.

"Are you okay?" I giggled, lifting the little girl up onto the counter.

"My butt hurts" she pouted, rubbing the side of her butt.

"What- what were you even doing in here?" I asked curiously.

"Well when I woke up, Jay started crying and daddy says Jay only cries when he wet his diaper or when he was hungry. SOOOO I checked his diaper like daddy does and it was dry!"

"Uh-huh." I nodded with interest.

"SOOOO I wanted to give Jay his baby formula but the bottle was completely empty! I looked in his bag and saw the box of formula so I wanted to go.make him a bottle but I got lost for 5 whole minutes mister!"

"Lost?" I asked, cocking my head to the side.

"Yes! I have never been here before."

"Oh yeah, that's right." I mumbled to myself.
