Author's POV

"Kookie please stop. Let's talk." Tae say as his husband starts to walk away.

"So now you want to talk. I have guest to see Tae." His response is smug as he purposefully does not make eye contact.

"No, you are going to talk to me now." 

Tae takes his hand and pulls him into a private office across the hall and shuts the door.

Kookie leans against the desk and crosses his arms across his chest.

"So, talk damnit!" Kookie shouts.

"Kookie, please don't be like this. This is our big day."  Tae Pleads. 

"Tae, you lied to me!"

"What? Lied? No way!"

"You lied by omission. It's the same thing, Tae! You knew you were traveling to Africa for your bug show and did not tell me!

"Kookie, I did not tell you because I did not want you to get upset and worry about the trip. I know you and you would worry. You needed to be focused on tonight. You were under so much pressure. Sweetheart, I just did not want to add to it. I know you are not happy with me traveling."

"I don't want to be lied to, nor do I want to be treated like I'm fragile, Tae!"

"Bae, I'm sorry. You're right. It was lying by omission. I-I just didn't think about it that way at the time.  I didn't want you worrying unnecessarily.  Now that show is completed you can relax a bit.  I was going to tell you in the morning when we had time together. What else is going on Kookie because your reaction is over the top."

Kookie is quiet for a few seconds and then grabs hold of Tae and burst into tears.

"Tae, I'm scared.  I don't want you to go. It so far and now you're going for 7 days. Tae, we have never been apart for that long. Now that we have our Mini and Umi I can't be away from you. We need you here." Tae reaches for a tissue and wipes his husband's eyes.

"Baby we knew this was coming. Instead of two to three trips we're just doing one trip. Jong-woo will be on top of security and you have your friends and Lisa and Hobi. Love we will talk every day and do face videos. It will be hard on me too. I will miss you and my babies terribly."

"Tae I'm sorry I overreacted. I know you were taking care of me; you always do. I'm just scared."

They embrace and just hold each other as Kookie trembles.

"Kookie, I love you and everything will be okay. Please trust me and what I'm doing."

"Okay, Tae. I trust you and love you so much." Kookie settles and kisses Tae's cheek.

"Why don't we go to our apartment and get naked." Tae says as he starts planting soft kisses on his husband's neck.

"Tae, I'm having a moment here. You don't care about my feelings. All you care about is getting you slutty chair dance!" Kookie pulls back and he shakes his head in disbelief.
