REASONS • TAEGYU

45

"All set?" Taehyun asked his boyfriend after loading the last baggage on the trunk. Today was their flight to Daegu and the couple will stay for 3 days to comply with the Choi family's request. 

Beomgyu nodded in response, and turn around to take a deep breath. Lots of things occupied Beomgyu's mind, and he can't help but to question himself at this very moment.
" Am I really doing this?, What if they'll get angry at me?, Do I still belong to that family?"

It makes Beomgyu got pre-jetlags even they're weren't on the plane. For his second thought he wanted to back out and just lay on his bed. "Hey? Don't think about it too much hmm? We'll be fine" Taehyun move closer to rub his arms, receiving a sweet smile from Beomgyu. "Okay..I trust you"

The couple board into the plane and it was a long but lovely ride. Maybe because Beomgyu enjoy everything on the plane, the clouds floating from his window, the food, the movie and also Taehyun's hand locked on his. Everything makes him feel that this is a good start. As for Taehyun, the view was really indeed alluring and wonderful, he's not talking about the clouds, but the person who's fond of them. Beomgyu.

Afterwards, The plane arrives on it's destination, the hometown of Beomgyu, where all of reasons started.  Beomgyu inhale the warm breeze and smile, Taehyun smile at him and asked "Felt like Home?"

"hmm no? I'm already have my home" Beomgyu said raising their hands together making Taehyun laugh at the cuteness. " Oh shut it, let's go love"

As they reach the Choi residence, Beomgyu's heart cant stop from jumping, not sure if it is from excitement or fear, but maybe both. To be honest, he doesn't know what he felt at the moment.

Beomgyu knocked into their house door, hoping for his parents to open, to welcome him. He waited for a second or two until it opens, revealing a mid-40's man and woman, smiling so bright as they saw their son.

" My baby is home!!" His mother engulfed him into a warm kiss on the forehead and proceed on hugging him tightly, including his father joining the hug.

Taehyun watched in delightfulness, He knew that Beomgyu's family will be so happy to see him again. And He's so happy for Beomgyu because he's making a step to fulfill the missing parts in his life.

"Oh my thank goodness I'll pay big on the church for this" His mom said which made everyone slightly chuckle. 

"Look Yuju, your son brought a friend" Beomgyu's father lean his attention to Taehyun who's standing in posture infront of the door.

"Oh mom, dad... he's not a friend..."

"Good Afternoon Mr and Mrs Choi. I'm Kang Taehyun, Your son's boyfriend, it was nice meeting you" Taehyun firmly said with a well mannered tone making Beomgyu's parents smile at him

"It was nice meeting you too Taehyun. We love to start a deep talk later at lunch. But for now, both of you can  head upstairs first to change." Beomgyu's mother said allowing both males to enter the house.

" Your mom always clean your room, atleast twice a week. It had become her past time when she misses you. So you don't have to worry if you'll be touring Taehyun upstairs " Beomgyu's Father added.

"Really? But, I've been gone for too long..you must be so tired and sad cleaning my room" Beomgyu asked his mother in full concern and sincerity. "It really is, but it's the only thing that makes me feel that you're here"

Beomgyu almost teared up from the statement and lower his head, making the air heavy. Before he could say sorry, his mom already encourage both of them upstairs to change.

After a while, both males are set on the fine table to eat, together with Beomgyu's parents. It was a great lunch for the both of them since it's the first in while to eat homemade food. Additionally, Taehyun doesn't feel any pressure at all infront of Beomgyu's parents, except of the lovely glances that Beomgyu's mom gave to the both of them.

"So you really had loads to tell me, Cookie" Beomgyu's mom finish her plate admiring both males across her.

"Mom, not that nickname "

Beomgyu's mother just chuckle and proceed to tell Taehyun the reason behind Beomgyu's nickname. The table was filled with laughter and smiles but it seems that Mr. Choi needs a little bit information from the two.

"Yuju." A sudden voice made Beomgyu's mother stop from laughing and makes the males shake in nervousness. "I'm glad your back son, but I'm very much disappointed that you choose to run away rather than face your cousin. "

"I'm sorry, I don't have the courage to do so after she revealed my sexuality in front of gradmas. I sincerely apologize dad"

Beomgyu's father sigh and went to caresses Beomgyu's hand. "Be brave, You got me, your mother and byunho (brother). You don't need to run anymore, we'll stand by your side."

Beomgyu was close to cry from his father's words but genuine happiness dominantly filled his heart. For that moment, he regain himself once again.

"Also, I'm glad you bring Taehyun, finally we had the chance to get to know him more" Beomgyu's dad stated making Taehyun politely smile in return.

"You're scaring him for god sake! Don't worry Taehyun, he's just being a tease" Beomgyu's mother stated and proceed to eat her desert.

"Dad, I'm bringing Taehyun to the reunion party tomorrow night, can you please tell grandma's for me, I'm not certain to face them yet. please"

"That's why I need to talk to Taehyun, to advice him. But don't worry, yes I'll tell them"

The lunch went well and both males proceed to their rooms to take a nap, and relax from the exhausting flight. Taehyun first went to shower as Beomgyu unpacked the remaining things in their luggage.

It's been a nice day so far, Beomgyu got warmly accepted by his parents, as well as Taehyun. However, he is uncertain on what will happen in the party. Specially, that Mi Yoon and other relatives will be present.

It's been 5 years since the scandal happened, and he still carry the burden within. Mi Yoon really did scrape his heart much than he couldn't imagine. He's afraid what will she able to done next.

"Hey, you okay?" Taehyun asked, rubbing his hair with a piece of towel. 

Beomgyu nodded and just stare at his beloved boyfriend, topless with a towel wrap on his waist to cover his lower body.

" getting used to it?"

"We're once husbands, you dumbo"

"How about we make it real " Taehyun said as he move closer towards Beomgyu, lifting his chin to peck his lips.

"You never slipped a chance to kiss me don't you?"

"Never" Taehyun mouthed with a cheeky smile as he went towards their wardrobe to put some clothes, leaving Beomgyu in full flush of red.
