“Can I try once?” Jungkook’s voice broke the silence that filled the room.
Everyone turned to look at him, including Taehyung , who seemed to only now notice Jungkook’s presence.
Jungkook felt his nerves rise as all eyes shifted to him, but he steadied himself. This was not the time to feel nervous.
Irene and Ha-rin glanced at him with a hint of doubt. They weren't sure if Jungkook could calm the baby, as neither of them had been able to. Still, any attempt was better than none, especially with the baby crying non-stop—it wasn’t good for his health.
Soo-ah, standing right next to Jungkook, looked visibly annoyed at the suggestion, her expression quickly shifting into a mocking smirk, convinced that Jungkook wouldn’t succeed.
Taehyung observed Jungkook with a slight frown, silently sceptical. If neither his mother nor Mrs. Jeon could soothe him, how could Jungkook possibly manage?
Jungkook, ignoring the judgmental stares, kept his gaze fixed on the baby, focusing on the task rather than the doubts around him.
In the middle of the quiet commotion, something unexpected happened.
The baby stopped crying.
Jungkook’s soothing voice seemed to work like magic; the moment it reached the baby’s ears, he went quiet.
The baby’s wide, curious eyes scanned the room, searching for the source of that gentle, calming voice.
Everyone else noticed, their expressions transforming from doubt to amazement as they realised that Jungkook had indeed managed to calm the baby.
The little one finally located Jungkook, his doe eyes shining as he gazed up, clearly wanting to hear more of that comforting voice.

Jungkook’s face broke into a gentle, bunny-like smile as he looked at the baby, who had started sucking on his fingers while still watching Jungkook with those bright, sparkling eyes.
He quickly took a hair tie out of his jeans pocket and gathered his long hair into a neat ponytail, preparing himself to tend to the baby.
After tying his hair securely, Jungkook approached the bed where the baby lay. He kneeled beside him, gently pulling the tiny fingers out of the baby’s mouth.
“Hey, don’t do that, little one,” Jungkook said in a playful, baby-like voice.
The baby looked up at him, confused but intrigued, not quite understanding the words but clearly captivated by the sound. Jungkook chuckled, a soft, warm laugh that resonated through the room.
