Chapter 7 Reality

At this time Jungkook can only see dusk, of the day and of his happiness.
That was enough! The more he stays silent, the more he can hear the reality's shrieks. He got up and drove home.

Tae opend the door and looked at his blank face. He knew something was wrong. Jungkook hugged him back.
Kook, you're okay?

'Jungkook-ah , you came early?'

'I'm just tired.
I got some work, I'll be in the study.' Jungkook stated making his way to the home office.

'Alright..' Tae said but followed him.
Jungkook kept his files on the table. He removed his coat, placing it on the chair.

'Kookie you need something? atleast fresh up.' Tae said and the other just hummed in response.

'I'll make some coffee.' Tae said going out.

'Hmm..'

Just hmm, Taetae sighed and left for the kitchen.

Tae placed the coffee on the table.
'You need anything, or maybe I could help you?'

'Just some time alone.' Jungkook said blankly looking at computer as he scrolled through a bundle of file.

Tae felt his heartbeat turning down. He was never cold to him. No matter how frustrated his kookie was he never told him to go away. But he just shrugged it and prepared dinner.

It was half past 9 and Jungkook was still not coming out of his study. Tae switched off the TV going to the study.

'Alright that's enough, dinner time.'
'Just a minute.. '

'You are saying for an hour, I'm setting the table be in the dining room till then.. Or I'll throw those files in trash.'
Taehyung said left calmly.

Jungkook entered the dining table Tae served him.

'Don't be stressed okay, you're doing fine, working hard.'

'Yeah.'

'Don't overworked yourself'

'You know a friend of mine suddenly found out her husband cheating on her with some women. She asked me for advice..'

'Uh?' Tae was first shocked and then again that Jungkook was bothered about his friend, it must be hard for him to decide what to say.

'And he is also my friend, he said he was drunk that night. I don't know what to say!' Oh that was harder.

'Leave him, easy! I know he is your friend too but it's his fault, he doesn't deserve her.'

Yeah I don't deserve you. Jungkook thought.
'But he loves her..'

'If he really did he wouldn't fall for someone else' Tae defended.

'Yeah, but he wasn't actually in love with her.' Jungkook explained.

'What kind of man he is, first he married someone then cheated her with other women and when he used her and he still wants his wife to stay with him?'

'But he apologized and that women provoke him,' Jungkook tried to explain only to make things worse.

'What is he? A child? That someone told him let's play giving him a candy, and he was ready? That bastard! knowing that he has someone waiting home, how could he..' Tae gritted his teeth.

'Jungkook don't ever talk to that guy, okay? And tell your friend to divorce him, live her life freely.' Tae said.

'But.. ' He doesn't even wants his husband to talk to the guy he mentioned. Tae couldn't believe that Jungkook was defending a cheater.
A cheater, as much he could understand.

'If I hear you talk to him..
I dunno about them.. but I would leave you.'

'Tae!' Unknowingly tears fell from his eyes, Taehyung stared at his husband who had started sobbing now.
'I'm sorry, I won't do it ever again please don't leave me.' He pleaded.

'Heyy.. Why would I' He stood up pulling jungkook to his lower chest. He said running his hands through his dark hair while caressing his back.
He could feel him shaking.

'I just don't want you to be like him..
Those men jungkook they're worth no one in their life, they deserve to be left alone. I am glad my kookie is not like them.' Tae said pecking his forehead. Jungkook wrapped his arms around his waist.

'Tell them to divorce yeah?'

'You won't leave me right.'

'Of course, no! but why are you asking this?'

'Because.... I--'

Deserve to be left alone! Jungkook thought.

Days passed like this Jungkook left early for office and came home late nights. He didn't spend much time in office and started being alone.He talked to him but it didn't feel like talking he stopped kissing, cuddling, hugging even smiling at him. Sometimes he didn't speak to him for whole day.. Reason? That usual 'busy!'

One night he came home directly heading to the bedroom. Tae thought he would come back after changing. He had waited enough so he headed to the room. He saw him wrapped in a blanket. Tae touched his forehead he wasn't sick, but at rate he was overworking him, he sure would be in some time.

'Kookie.. '

'Let's have the dinner and then you could sleep'

'Kook?'

Tae called him but he was way too deep in his slumber to listen. So Taehyung decided to let him sleep, and hugged him from behind eventually falling asleep.

Tae had just placed the breakfast on the table.. He was going shout  before he came in front of him. His files in his one hand and Avengers keychain on the other, obviously it was his car key.

'Bye' He siad

'What?' Taehyung thought he was hearing things but he turned towards the door.
'Hey where do you think you are going? He slightly shouted.

'Office...' Jungkook turned back to his confused face.

'Without the breakfast?' Tae asked.

'I.. I'm late.. There's a meeting.' He couldn't find a better excuse.

'You didn't eat the dinner
Have your breakfast..' Tae said.

'I don't have time.' Jungkook said leaving him behind.

'Kook..'

'Have meals at time and don't wait for
me' He said as he opened the door.

'Jungkook... Jungkook.. Jung--'
That was enough now Tae couldn't stand him. So he called someone who could tell him what was wrong.
