I Was There, I Remember It All Too Well

Author's POV

"You're lying Jungkook." He claimed coldly, looking at his wife and his son froze hearing his statement.

That face…

Oh, it's too familiar for him. And the fact that Jungkook's face looks exactly like his mother's, only makes it more difficult for Mr. Jeon to actually forget where and why he saw that face once. If words could describe what he feels that night, surely there would be millions of heartbreak phrases but there aren't any. The only word that he could think of is pain.

"W-what are you saying, father?" Jungkook asked him, catching the old man's attention as he glanced at his own son before looking at the one who kneels in front of the boy, his wife who also looked at him confusedly by his statement. "I said you're lying. You don't lose your feelings for Aíden, you never did because you never even loved him in the first place. Tell me...is there a third person?" He asked as Jungkook's mouth gaped open before closing it instantly after, startled by the sudden question.

Jungkook gritted his teeth in nervousness as he looked down at the floor, thinking of many ways to jump off from this question. No, he doesn't want to tell them that there is a third person because he knows they will be extremely disappointed but he also didn't want to lie to their face about the question. His parents raised him to be a gentleman successful man, not to be a liar asshole.

With that, Jungkook took a deep breath as he buried his face inside his palm; mentally ready to tell the truth with also explanation as an excuse.

"Father—"

"It's either yes or no, Jungkook. That's all I wanted to hear… Nothing else matters." Mr. Jeon cut him off coldly, patiently waiting for his son's reply even though he already knew the answer all along. Besides, the loud silence says it all. He just wanted to test his child, he wanted to see whether Jungkook could or couldn't be honest and admit his mistake.

"I…" Jungkook trailed off, hesitating.

"Yes." He half-heartedly replied, looking down on the floor knowing if he looked at his parents now, he would see nothing but a disappointment clearly displayed across their face. And as their only son, Jungkook didn't want to see that sight at all. The mere thought of his parents looking at him with dismay unexpectedly made his hazel eyes drown in tears as his clear sight slowly got blurred.

"And did you or didn't you have sex with them?" The old man asked once again, trying so hard to control his tears that began to crawl up to his already blurred sight as he kept his gaze at his son, silently praying that the answer would be no and at the same time; trying so hard to not look at his wife. It hurts … It was as if he stood again in the same place. The begging, the cries, the apologies, it's still fresh in his memories and even though it was already over, somehow it just got him.

"Answer me!!" He raised his voice slightly, getting a little bit into the situation as he felt his atmosphere around change just back then, but the only difference is that the one who keeps silent is not Jungkook, instead, his own wife. At times like this, he didn't want to hear the boy's explanation, he just wanted to know yes or no. As a father who watched his son grow, he taught Jungkook enough about loyalty and he made sure to be very strict with it.

He doesn't want history to repeat itself…

"I… Yes, I did." Jungkook confessed, earning a surprised gasp from his mother who he felt immediately back away from him which made him turn his gaze away from the marble floor to his mom who gave him an unhappy look in him. The look… was enough to make Jungkook's hazel eyes drown in tears as he panicky glanced at his father, watching the old man stand instantly before making his way towards him who opened his mouth to explain the whole thing but that never happened after.
