Chapter 6: Who am I?

Taehyung was currently inside the taxi. He already finished his breakfast with Jungkook and Miyoung. It was awkwardly silent because none of them bothered to speak unless Miyoung spoke. He bid goodbye to Miyoung but not to Jungkook.

He was a bit annoyed because his phone was laggy due to the number of notifications he received. Since he was popular, it was already expected that he to get a lot of notifications from random fans. The aftermath of it was his laggy phone and some important notifications doesn't notify him. And one of them was his mother's random worried and mad texts.

"Sir, we're here." The taxi driver spoke when they arrived at Taehyung's house.

Taehyung muttered 'thank you' before he got out of the taxi. He hid his phone in his pocket not bothering to take a look at his messages and history calls.

When he opened the door of his house, he saw his mother's puffy teary eyes, sitting on the couch in the living room with Jin seems to be comforting her.

"What's happening here?" He asked them curiously.

He caught their attention and he was sure that they were worried.

"Where did you go? Why did you just come back now? Do you know how worried am I? What's wrong with you, hah?!" Jasmine bombarded him with questions.

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep in the hotel, okay? Nothing happened." Taehyung clarified.

"I'm so worried about you, at least you should answer my call or text!" Jasmine yelled.

"My phone was off, how can I answer them?" Taehyung reasoned.

"Taehyung, mom is worried about your whereabouts, is this how you talk to her?" Jin chided him.

"How do you want me to answer her? I'm saying the truth here." Taehyung shot back.

"I just don't want you to cross your path with Jungkook again! That's all I want you to do, Taehyung!" Jasmine told him.

"Who's Jungkook? Why are you guys worried about it? How am I supposed to ignore him if there 100% chance that I will see him? Tell me, mom!" Taehyung retorted.

"This won't do, I will transfer you to another University again. I don't want you to speak his name ever again!" Jasmine stated.

"Again? How many times do you want to do that, mom? I'm so tired of it. It's our 7th time transferring Universities in a span of 2 years! Just 2 years, mom!" Taehyung grumbled.

He was enraged and confused, who can believe that he transferred 7th times without him knowing the reason why.

"You will just listen to me, that's all you need to do. If I tell you I'm going to transfer you, you should obey. Do you understand, Taehyung?!" Jasmine growled at him.

Taehyung didn't speak, he just balled his hands in a fist.

"Do you understand me, Taehyung?!" Jasmine raised her tone.

"No, I don't. I don't understand you at all. You want me to obey you without telling me the valid reason why should I do that. Do you expect me to listen to you right now? I acted like a fool because that makes you happy but I want to be selfish this time, mom." Taehyung said through his gritted teeth but he got slapped on his cheeks.

"Don't you dare to talk back to me. Continue to act like a fool, you are used to it, why are you complaining now?" Jasmine inquired glaring at him.

"Because I want to know the answer, I want to know the truth. I'm tired of acting like a fool!" Taehyung snarled.

"Why don't you just listen to mom, Taehyung? She's your mother, she knows what's good for you. So please, don't argue with her anymore. Just listen to her." Jin told him.

"This is getting crazy, I don't like to be here anymore." Taehyung turned around and walk away.

"If you go over that door, don't you ever dare to come back here anymore. I won't be your mother and I—"

Before she can even finish her sentence, Taehyung walked out and slammed the door close not hearing her screams anymore.

"It seems like you are hot-headed today, hah. What happened?" Yoongi asked him while they were walking in the hallway.

"Can you do me a favor?" Taehyung inquired not bothering to answer his question.

"What is it?" Yoongi responded curiously.

"I want to know about Jungkook, you can check his background, right? Can you do that for me?" Taehyung asked looking at him.

He saw Yoongi swallow hard and out of nowhere, Yoongi can't look at his eyes.

"I'm sorry, Taehyung, you know I am currently applying as a producer in BigHit entertainment, right? I have to focus on that and I a—"

"What do you know about it?" Taehyung cut him off.

"What?" Yoongi responded.

"What do you know about mom and hyung's secret? Tell me now, Yoongi." Taehyung said venomously while glaring at him.

"I don't think I understand what you were trying to say Taehyung." Yoongi gulped.

"Are you part of their play, Yoongi?!" Taehyung grumbled clenching his jaw.

"Taehyung, believe in me, I really don't know what you are talking about. If you clarify to me, I will answer them but Taehyung, I don't know anything about it." Yoongi reasoned.

Lies. Taehyung knew Yoongi was lying. He's not that stupid and his reason was nonsense. His response was stupidly dumb to believe. He just laugh bitterly yet sadly. He looked at Yoongi sternly.

"You too? You're lying to me. Why? Why are all of you doing this to me? Who is Jungkook? Who am I? Why are you guys being like this? What are you guys hiding from me?!" Taehyung bombarded Yoongi with questions.

"Taehyung, I—"

Taehyung jerked off his hand when Yoongi was about to touch him.

"Don't you ever again, if you don't want to tell me something about that secret, don't expect me to believe in you again."

Taehyung walked away even though Yoongi was yelling his name.
