Chapter 9 Regrets.

Jungkook rang the bell waiting for Tae to open the door. Taehyung opened the door and turned back inside before he could see him. Jungkook walked inside closing the door behind him.

'Where have you been?' Taehyung asked with a straight face. His eyes red from maybe crying.

Jungkook knew what he was going to ask next. Did you eat? Maybe he was mad.

'Office.. ' He replied without looking at him.

'What do you think I am, an idiot???
Every evening I call your receptionist and she says you left for home. And you come home late night tired of WORK. What kind of work you do outside the office. huh?'  He yelled.

Jungkook looked at him his eyes filled with anger.

'Tae, we can talk'

'Talk! You haven't talked to me properly for a couple of weeks. Everytime I ask you are just too tired to reply. You leave early and come back then sleep. Have you forgotten that you have a husband? Or are you just bored of me?'

'Taehyung! What are you saying--'

Tae pulled out his phone from his pocket and threw it on the table. It couldn't be.Jungkook wished and picked the phone. It was exactly what he feared. It was the recording of Jungkook and Linda which Linda send him.

'Liar!'
'Tell me it's not you and her, lie again.'
Tae said. Jungkook was just thinking why was he so controlled, he didn't shrieked, didn't cry, didn't curse him, not even a slap after knowing all this, he thought he would understand.

'Tae listen to me I can explain...'

'What will you explain that you slept with a women cuz you.. you.. lost interest in your husband, that you need sluts to satisfy your needs.' Tae shouted, he just wanted to hear NO, he wanted him to say it's not him, that it's all fake, that he only loves him and nobody could take his place in his life.
His breath getting heavy due to continuous shouting.

Jungkook poured a glass of water and gave it to Tae.

'Drink it, I won't lie, let me explain.'
Tae holded the glass his gaze stuck at Jungkook.

'It's me.' He said looking down.

Taehyung tightened his grip on the glass and it broke in his hand making it bleed. Jungkook looked at him his face still blank emotionless, but tears rolling down from his eyes. Tae made a fist letting the leftover glass peices fall down. It was not his hand that was hurt, it was his heart which was bleeding.

'Taehyung what are you doing?'

'Don't come near me.' He backed away from him.

'It.. It's bleeding.. Tae' His voice cracked.

'Don't come near me or you'll see me dead!' Tae yelled

'Taehyung please.. '  Tears fell from his eyes.

'You lost all the rights to touch me.' He said still tears wetting his chin.

Jungkook's heart ached but all he could care in the moment was his pain. He fell on his knees crying.

'Please! I.. I won't touch you e...ever again. Just let me treat that, I'll do whatever you want, but pl.. please Tae, your hand is bleeding.' He said chocking on his tears.

Tae nodded. 'Okay'

He wiped his face getting up. As Jungkook came near him, he said:
'I want divorce.'

Jungkook's chest became cold. Without saying anything he lifted Tae and placed him on the sofa, careful enough not hurt him anymore.

He fetched the first aid kit, cleaned his hand with every touch he hissed. Jungkook bited his lips to stop himself from crying. Bandaged his hand finally sealing it with a kiss.

'Divorce is what we decided, didn't we?' Tae said as Jungkook settled besides him.

'I'll do whatever you want but for once just lemme explain. Just this once.'  Jungkook pleaded.

'Continue-'

'Tae I can't live without you...'

'Explain me or I am going.' He said.

'No, NO! Wait!' His eyes grew wider.

He told him everything that had happened.

Tae looked up at him with a blank face.
'I don't know what to say'

'Wait, just stay here.' Jungkook said rushing out from the living room, leaving a confused Taehyung.

Do you think Tae would believe him.
