Deception

Part Twelve

When Jungkook and the boys arrived at home, they all pretty much went to their own rooms. He told them he'd call them when dinner was ready, but they just closed their doors at the same time.

He went to plop himself on the sofa, sighing loudly as he tried to figure out how to salvage his relationship with his kids. He also wants them to spend time with his baby girl. So they can start getting to know each other.

He then decides to call Jin and ask him if he can keep her for the night. He is pretty certain he wouldn't allow that, but maybe he'll allow a few hours at least.

*********************

Jin had just arrived home as well and walked around the house doing some cleaning. But wearing a huge smile.

He is amazed at how different this feeling is when he thinks about Taehyung, compared to the man he thought he married. Back then, he was so sure that he'd be happy to spend the rest of his life with Jungkook happily married.

But he thinks that what happened was a blessing in disguise. He supposedly married a man, had his baby.

And when she was hurt, he met the amazing pediatrician that treated her. So in a way, it was the fates that led them to each other. And his heart is telling him that he is going to be the man that he falls so deeply in love with. And he's the one that he'll spend the rest of his life with.

As he was busy daydreaming about Tae, he could hear his phone ringing. And he wasn't too happy to see Jungkook's name on the screen.

He's probably calling to argue about his relationship with Taehyung. So he answers the phone ready for a fight.

"Yes? What do you want?" He asked curtly.

Jungkook flinched, unused to hearing Jin speak to him that way. But he realizes he's probably expecting the call to be about Taehyung and is on alert.

"Hey, before you start getting angrier. I just wanted to let you know that I am not calling about you and Tae. This is about our daughter."

Jin sits down and asks, "What about her?"

"Ahem, I would like her to spend time with my sons, so they can start getting to know each other. I mean, they are family whether anyone is happy about it or not."

"I don't know.. when and how long?"

Jungkook felt hopeful and said, "I was kinda hoping I could keep her overnight. I already have her nursery set up here. I even bought her the same type of crib for her."

Jin immediately says, "I don't think I want her to be away from me overnight. She's still so small and I will miss her. I mean she will cry for me."

Jungkook smiles and then says, "Well, what about just a few hours today? I can bring her back by dark."

Jin looks at his watch and sees it's past noon.

"Hmm, what time were you thinking of picking her up?"

"Well, if you don't mind, I can go get her in a bit. That way she can eat a late lunch with me and the boys."

Jin looks at his baby as she's carrying a toy truck that Yoongi gave her and sees her playing all alone.

He sighs and says, "Well, I guess that's ok. But I want her back by dinner time. And I don't want anyone to treat her bad or mean. I don't know your other kids, but I know they can't be too excited to spend time with the sister they just barely found out about. And kids can be cruel, so I'd better not find out that she was mistreated.

Otherwise, I will burn you and your house down."

"You don't have to worry about that. I will make sure that they are good to her. You know how much I love her. I would never let her get hurt."
