The Way Back To You // JINKOOK

Part 11

Jungkook kept crying beside Jin, Jin didn't know where he should drive other than to his apartment. When they arrived at the apartment parking lot, Jin unbuckled his seat belt and turned to Jungkook who was still looking away from Jin.

"Jungkook-ah..."

"Why is she like that hyung? She took me because she wanted me to marry Taehyung. The son of her boss. She didn't even take me because she missed me, she never knew me, she didn't want me hyung" Jungkook cried even more and covered his face with his hands.

"Jungkook-ah.. but after all she's your mother, you shouldn't say that, we'll never know why she did all this to you but I'm sure she just wants you to be happy. I don't think there's a mother in this world who doesn't think about her child's happiness"

"Should a mother slap her child? Is that how they show their affection?" Jin just took Jungkook's hand. Jungkook's cheeks which were still a little red were now wet with tears, Jin wiped the tears from his cheeks.

"Hyung, I miss our time together with eomma. There's only me, you and eomma in that little house. I want to sleep in your little bed, fight over small things and hear eomma call us from the kitchen for dinner. I miss all of that hyung, I want to go back to that time" Jungkook looked at Jin with teary eyes. Jin unbuckled Jungkook's seat belt and pulled him into his arms. Let Jungkook to cry on his shoulder.

"Hyung apologizes to you Jungkook-ah, all of that can't be repeated, but now hyung is here, hyung will always take care of you and provide other beautiful moments that make you happy. Maybe that feeling will be different from what eomma gave us but this is all i can do for you"

"I just want you here with me hyung, never leave me no matter what, because I need you"

"I promise, I will always be here with you"

Taehyung, who had just returned home, saw his father on the phone in the living room, his father standing facing the window, his back to him. His father wasn't usually home on weekends like that. Taehyung decided to go up to his room but his steps stopped when he heard Jungkook's name called by his father. He turned to his father and tried to get closer, confirming what his father was talking about and who he was talking to.

"It's okay, calm down first, I'm sure Jungkook will come back to your house, he has no other place to stay" his father said.

"A man? Who?"

"He took Jungkook away with him? Calm yourself, if tomorrow he doesn't come back, we will report that man to the police. Don't worry, even if they don't get married, I will marry you as I promised, I don't want our baby to be born without a father" Suddenly Those words crushed Taehyung's feelings who were standing right behind him.

"Yeah you don't need to worry... Taehyung?" His father was shocked when he turned around and saw Taehyung standing there, he immediately hung up the phone and approached Taehyung but Taehyung chose to avoid him.

"Appa.. who are you calling? Is that Jungkook's mother? Is she Mrs. Jeon? Your assistant?"

"Taehyung,  I'll explain to you--"

"What do you mean if you're going to marry her? And our baby? What does all that mean? Wait... have you and her.. you two been cheating on eomma? That's why you're never at home and.. that's why Mrs. Jeon never accompanied Jungkook to their house? What did you do to eomma? She should know all this" When Taehyung wanted to leave, his father held Taehyung by holding his hand tightly.

"Appa will explain everything to you, but don't tell anything to your eomma"

"No! I was never taught to lie, she's my mother, I have to tell her about all your lies" Taehyung pulled his hand and just as he was about to run to the stairs, his father said something that made him stop.

"Even your mother is the one who has been lying to you! Whose child do you think you are? Me and your mother's child? You're just a child we adopted from an orphanage when you were 5 months old. There's nothing special about you Taehyung! Do you think complaining to your mother will make her divorce me ? She won't divorce me because only I want to accept a barren woman like her!" Taehyung clenched his fists, he was very angry and ran to his mother's room. He saw his mother who was shocked to hear the sound of the door opening, her mother woke up from her sleep and Taehyung immediately approached her. Hugged his mother tightly and cried.

"Tae.. what's wrong? Did you fight again with your father? Eomma already told you not to ignore your father's words, he must be tired and--"

"Eomma... am I really not your biological son? Am I really an orphan?" His mother was very surprised by the words.

"Eomma, tell me the truth, is it right?" Taehyung let go of his hug and looked at his mother who started to have tears in her eyes.

"Who said all that? Did your father say it? Don't listen to him, he's just tired from work"

"He said it knowingly, eomma.. he and Mrs. Jeon cheated on you, she is pregnant and appa is going to marry her"

"Taehyung.. you're tired, your father is tired, come and sleep with eomma..hmm? Your father did spend more time with Mrs. Jeon but that's because she's your father's assistant. I'm fine, come here.."

"Eomma.."

"I'm sorry Tae, eomma loves you very much, eomma doesn't want to lose you, so don't leave me, hmm? Come here Tae, we'll forget what your father did. Forgive me for what he said"

"No, I can't eomma, let's get out of here, we can live better than this"

"What about your father? He needs eomma, he needs you"

"Eomma.. he doesn't need us both, he just--"

"What are you doing?" His father came into the room and pulled Taehyung away from his wife.

"Yeoboo.. don't hurt him"

"Shut up!" His father snapped at his wife.

"If you think you could get out of this house better, get out of here! I don't need kids like you!"

"Yeobo!! Tae, don't listen to your father, eomma needs you here" His mother tried to hold Taehyung but his husband held her body hard.

"Eomma.. I love you, thank you for taking care of me so that I don't feel lacking in anything from you, I promise we will meet again"

"No!!! Taehyung please don't leave me.. please..Taehyung!!!" Taehyung rushed out of there. His heart also ached leaving his mother there but knowing that all this time they had lied to him was even more painful.
