CHAPTER-29

<Park's mension>

"Jin! Jimin!" Mr. Park calls from downstairs and only Jin came out.

"Yes, dad? Yes?"

"You idiots have been blind. You never asked Yoongi where he went and whom he met! I ought to have had the whole information! He's not setting foot in this house ever again!" Mr. Park yells at Jin and Joon.

"Very well, dad" This is all Jin could reply  to his furious father. Well, he has never questioned his doing.

"Even if he comes, he's not getting in without meeting me! Even if it happens to be in the dead of the night!"

"Right dad"

When Mr. Park was heading inside, he hears a loud music coming out from Yoongi's room, so he peeps inside and saw Yoongi being indulged in it. And without saying a word, he went away.

Yoongi looks over from his shoulder at the door to check if he's really gone and then took a deep sigh of relief falling on the bed. Jimin who's been hiding all this time behind the door, holding Yoongi's aka Suga's clothes throws it on his face and leaves.

That time at Yoongi's house after Mr. Park left with Joon. Jimin came for the rescue. He took a panicked Yoongi back to the Park's mension way faster than Mr. Park. They entered from the backyard and planned all this, to make it real that there are two people with same face as Yoongi.

-------------

It's evening now and Mr. Park has summoned all his four sons in his office to have a talk with them, but he's not uttering a word and sitting on his chair, lost in deep thoughts. The atmosphere of the room slowly turning into a suffocating silence. Only the sound of the wall clock ticking can be heard.

After few moments of more waiting, Jin finally dares to speak breaking his father's trail of thoughts.

"Why have you called all of us here, Dad?"

Mr. Park sighs.

"You boys are now perhaps beginning to think that I'm ruining your lives. By not getting you married, I'm sowing thorns in your lives. Is that true?" Mr. Park says softly lifting his eyes from the desk to meet the eyes of his sons.

"Dad, why are you saying such things?" Jin asks.

"Answer my question. Do you really think like that?" Mr. Park first asks Jin.

"No, not at all"

He then looks at Joon, whose answer was same, "I don't think like that either, dad"

"And, what do you think?" He asks, now looking at Yoongi ..

"No, dad. The two of us don't think like that either" Yoongi answers refering to himself and Jimin.

"Talk only for yourself! He'll speak for what he thinks" Mr. Park says turning his gaze to Jimin.

"I haven't thought like that so far, Dad" Jimin answers.

"Which means you might start thinking like that in the future?"

"No!" Jimin says shaking his head to which Mr. Park hummed in understanding, and rotates his chair around.

"In that case, I've begun thinking that I've made a very grave mistake by not getting my sons married. When there was a proposal for Joon long ago, I had laid down a condition that Jin would get married first and only then... Anyway, I withdraw that condition now. Let him not get married, if he doesn't want to. But the rest of you must get married. You must, mustn't you?"

Mr. Park stops for a while after telling his thought to his sons. Jimin and Yoongi looks at each other passing their biggest smiles, but....

Mr. Park turns back again and adds further, which made their smile disappear very fast.

"And thus I've decided that Yoongi will get married first."

"Why? What happened?" He asks Yoongi seeing his all pale face who shakes his head uttering, 'No... nothing'.

"You'll marry a girl of my choice on an auspicious day. You all may leave now!" Mr. Park says opening one of his files.

-----------

"He's getting married?" Lia growls in anger.

"Let me see how he gets married" She says to Tae. Of course, he's the one who told her.

"He's not doing it out of his own will. He's being forced into it. His father has locked him up and he's getting him married. I swear on that!" Tae says.

"And he's going to marry too?"

"Yes"

"Before he does that, he'll have to see me and my child dead"

"What're you doing? Listen!" Tae says and gets the door shut right in his face.

"This is getting worse!" Tae mumbles to himself and starts jumping to get a look from the windows.

"Sister-in-law! Listen to me.. please!"

"What will I listen to now? Who do I have in the world anyway?" She says in between crying.

"I'm here for you"

"Shut up! Look at your face! Alien!"

"Alien? Sister-in-law!" He somehow enters from the backdoor.

"My kid and I are going to die!" She goes inside her room with her son.

"Sister-in-law! What're you doing?" Tae yells only to get another door shut at his face.

"Please don't do something rash! Sister-in-law!" He knocks at the door but gets no response.

"Aishh! I've to answer all the questions! Please sister-in-law!" He says ruffling his hair and starts knocking again.

"I'll break open the door! I'm telling you, I'll break it! Here I come!"

He takes few steps back, ready to break through the door, gets in the position and here he goes... straight into the side lamp as Lia opened the door right then after getting changed into her outgoing dress.

"Won't you even let me change? Get wrecked like that lamp, cursed chap! Damn you!" Lia shouts at him.
