A frown formed on Jungkook's face as a wave of confusion washed over him. What could it be that Namjoon had left behind that clung to him in such a way—was it really just an object, or could it possibly be something more significant? A pang of jealousy stirred in Jungkook’s heart, a feeling he couldn't quite understand, yet it was undeniable.

Driven by curiosity, Jungkook found himself eager to see what Namjoon had left behind, especially considering how much he meant to him. "Show me," he urged, his voice barely above a whisper. With a playful smirk, Namjoon positioned his phone using a pillow on the bed, the playful glint in his eyes evident as he prepared to reveal something.

Suddenly, he began to pull off his T-shirt, and Jungkook panicked, his voice rising,

"Namjoon, why are you taking off your shirt? Put it back on!" Feeling flustered, he couldn’t believe how his heart was racing at the sight of Namjoon teasing him.

"Aren't you curious to see? Weren't you just eager a moment ago?" Namjoon teased back, his confidence radiating through the screen.

"I was, and I still am, but I’m not in the mood for... you know, that sort of thing. Just put your T-shirt back on, please, Namjoon," Jungkook insisted, his cheeks heating up even more with embarrassment.

His protest faltered, though, when Namjoon turned around, revealing his back to the screen. Jungkook gasped in shock, his eyes widening when they landed on the stretch marks that crisscrossed across Namjoon’s skin—marks from Jungkook's own sharp nails during their more passionate moments together.

"Oh my god, when did I do that?" he exclaimed, the realization hitting him with a mixture of horror and surprise.

Namjoon turned to face him once again, a soft smile gracing his lips, eyes sparkling with mischief as he relished in Jungkook’s stunned reaction. Raising an eyebrow, he quipped, "When you were moaning like a mess in bed."

"Namjoon..." Jungkook’s voice trailed off in a mix of embarrassment and reluctant fondness, unable to fully cloak his shyness.

"What? Now you're suddenly shy? Where's my shameless husband?" Namjoon’s words were playful, yet they held a deeper connection between them.

"Far away from you but forever in your heart," Jungkook replied, his voice softening, filled with longing.

"He’s right here with me," Namjoon declared, resting a hand over his chest, emphasizing the emotional bond that tied them together despite the distance.

Jungkook couldn't help but clutch the sheets tightly as he wished he could bridge the gap between them in that moment, yearning to kiss his husband and erase the separation.

"So, what were you doing before you called me?" Jungkook finally asked, trying to focus on anything to distract himself from the longing he felt.

Namjoon sighed, running a hand through his hair, a hint of frustration evident in his expression.

"Me? Today, I got out of the office early and headed to our Kim mansion to see Dad and spend time with others. They asked me to stay, but I refused because I was kind of upset, and I didn’t want to bother them with my sadness." His admission revealed the weight of emotional turmoil he carried, even when surrounded by family.

Why did you refuse to join us? By the way, how is Dad doing these days? Is he in good health? Honestly, I think you should have stayed with them until I come back. You'd feel less lonely surrounded by family. I am absolutely certain that Jin hyung will make you laugh with his antics and cheerful demeanor all the time.
