It was about evening. "Y/n ah, I just finished setting up my office. Shall we complete the discussion about Park in our home?" he asked. "Don't tell me, you are barging in again?" you rolled your eyes. Taehyung was summing up the day's activities.

He wondered what kind of relationship you both were in. "I don't know all the details. Mr Kim is in charge", you said. "Why don't you come to our home, Mr Kim? I will make sure to get you a day off from her, maybe pay for overtime", Jungkook asked.

"Mr Jeon, that's a bit", he hesitated. "He is not like us, he has a family", you said, remembering his mother's face. "You at least have someone to call as a family", Jungkook. "He is not my family", you got angry.

"Hey, I didn't mean to", Jungkook said. "Y/n ah, like it or not, still he is your-" "You are my only family. I think that way. I don't care what you think of that.

You two discuss something and figure out how to transfer the files", you barged out. "Aish, this girl", he threw his hands in the air. "Mr Kim, don't mind us. So, are you going to come today? Or", he asked. "I will come", he said.

"Nice. Let's go", he said. You got into your car. You were weak when it came to Jungkook. You never really cared about venting on someone. But today, Jungkook was hurt because of you. You wanted to make up.

But you didn't know that he was used to it and understood you perfectly. When you reached your home, another car followed in. Jungkook and Taehyung got out of the car. You didn't say anything.

But Jungkook playfully bumped your shoulder indicating that he is not mad. You and Taehyung followed him inside. "Ajumma! I missed you", he immediately hugged her. "Oh my gosh! I was just talking about you, yesterday", she patted his back.

"I know this girl gave you a hard time. I came back now, don't worry", he giggled. "Oh! Secretary Kim, you came today as well", she said. "Yeah, today we have some office work", Taehyung said.

"Yes, so let's get to work but dinner comes before", Jungkook excitedly said. "Jungkook, don't keep Mr Kim for a long time. He would need to travel a long way", you said. "Mr Kim, better you stay here tonight. You can take a day off tomorrow", he said.

You rolled your eyes. "You can stay in my room. I have some new pairs of casual clothes. You can use that", he said. "Mr Jeon, that's all a bit too much. I feel the pressure a bit", he said.

"Oh! I am sorry. It's just I thought that you both were pretty close. So you wouldn't mind", he said. "Get over with it, Mr Kim. Else he won't leave you in peace", you said. Jungkook insisted Taehyung change into some comfy clothes.

In between, he texted his mother that he would be staying in a friend's house and having fun. It was pretty complicated to explain over text. You three of you had your dinner.

Jungkook and Taehyung settled down to work. Taehyung noticed that Jungkook was pretty serious when it came to working. His goofy side disappeared. You were just listening to their convo.

Your eyes were fixed to Taehyung. You saw how he was explaining everything and clearing Jungkook's doubts. You smiled a little from time to time. You yawned a few times.

"If you want to sleep, go and sleep. I can't carry you if you sleep here", Jungkook said. "Yesterday, someone else carried me. Don't worry", you said. Taehyung's ears turned red.

He was looking at the papers as if he heard nothing. "Good night to both of you", you went to your room. Jungkook chuckled at her. After a few hours, Taehyung completely explained everything.

"Wow, that's quicker than I expected", Jungkook said. "Let me clean this tomorrow morning. Let's go to bed", he said. "I hope that you don't mind sharing a bed with me", he said.

"I can sleep on the couch, Mr Jeon", he scratched his neck. "What? No. You may be our employee but we don't treat you anywhere low.

You are my guest", Jungkook dragged him to his room. "We have another guest room but y/n stuffed with a lot of her things. I don't think it's usable", he was talking.

"Come on, Mr Kim. I like girls so I won't do anything to you", he laughed. Taehyung laughed too. They both lied on their end. "Are you that close to y/n? She never brings her employees home.

I guess you were here yesterday", Jungkook said. "Nothing special. It's just she asked me to accompany her for dinner", he said.

"I feel like y/n changed a bit in a good way. She is less furious and most importantly she talks more. I believe you were the one who changed her", Jungkook said.

"You must be really close to her", Taehyung said. "Yes. I am here because of her", Jungkook said. "I was bullied in my middle school. No one dared to help me.

Y/n was the one who saved me. She was called a witch, a bad omen and a creep for her behaviour. I initially thought that the students wouldn't bully or beat me if I was by her side.

I would always follow her or try to talk to her in an attempt to be her friend. One day, I saw y/n walking to a graveyard. It was the very first time I saw her crying. She saw me and slowly she opened up to me.
Unfortunately, I lost my parents on the same day of y/n's mother passed away. We shared similar pain. Jungkook paused a little.

As I was sticking to her no one dared to make a friendship with me. I too didn't want anyone. A lot of times, y/n would cry after being tortured by her father.

He always pressured her to study extraordinarily. He wanted her to be first in everything. She took an oath that she would be the best in the industry and kicked her father out.

I slowly understood why she was like this. She wanted to protect herself. So, she is just wearing a mask, pretending to be tough. If she trusts someone she would trust them will all she has.

As soon as she got a grip of the company she promoted me directly as MD of the company. Jungkook said everything to Taehyung. Taehyung listened to everything, he almost teared up.

"Mr Kim, she trusts you. Never break her trust", he said. "You are an amazing person, Mr Jeon. I believe that no one can take care of her like you", Taehyung said.

He just smiled. Both of them drifted off to sleep. You were sitting by the door and you listened to everything. To be very exact, Jungkook was your safe place. He never once left your side.

He always took care of you. He might have come to you for his own reasons. Soon he truly cared for you. He even confessed this once but your relationship escalated to the point where it doesn't matter anymore.

He gave you a shoulder to cry, he held you during your darkness. He was the only person who never judged you. You actually went through the hallway for water but ended up listening to everything. You wiped your tears through the smile and went to your room.
