A/N:

Hello Lovelies and little Dahlias. We're here with a new unedited chapter. 

Please enjoy chapter 79!

                                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Things had been quite and calm for the most part. That's was his first thought when Jungkook woke up. Of course everyone knows that even thinking that is an open invitation for chaos to waltz into your life. Sure enough, not even two hours had passed since he awoke when he got a call from a panicked Taehyung.

The thing is, Taehyung and Jungkook last saw each other when the latter warned him that he might hear little Taetae's voice sometime soon. Jungkook figured it would be best to give Taehyung some space after everything that went down. He thought it would be helpful if the guy had at least some semblance of order and normalcy in his life before expected events begin to unfold. The truth was that both of them knew things are going to get worse before they got better. After all, isn't that the mockery that life exposes people to?

"Hello?" – Jungkook's voice was hoarse although he had been for some time now. He blamed the fact on not having spoken yet. In any case, that was a non-issue, especially with the man on the other end of the line sounded very much like he was having a crisis.

"Jungkook?" – Taehyung sounded small; so small that it was hard for Jungkook to resist running over to him. He could only imagine the expression on his angelic face morphed into one of worry and fear.

"Yes? What's wrong Taehyung?" – Jungkook asked with as much calmness as possible.

"I think, I know we said we're giving each other a little bit of space for some time, but I think I really need you here. Can you come if you don't have anywhere else to be?"

"Of course, sure, Taehyung, I'll be right over."

Jungkook was ready and out his door in a matter of minutes. The way Taehyung sounded; he knew working on his appearance was not of importance. Not when his man needed him.

Once Jungkook arrived and knocked on the door, he processed his emotions for the first time since getting the phone call from Taehyung. His heart was beating quite fast and he was nervous. It had been over a week since he last saw Taehyung with his own eyes and talked to him and honestly, he had missed him to the point of insanity. But the separation was not about him. It was not even about their relationship. This was all for Taehyung who very quickly reached his door and opened it. His presence and usual shine were dimmed with confusion and stress.

"Come in." – Short and simple; which most definitely spoke of his emotional and mental state. Taehyung did not know what else to say. Where was he going to start, how was he going to start explaining?

"What's wrong? What do you need?" – Jungkook tried to keep his questions at bay. He presumed that it was best if he matched Taehyung' pace right now. The man looked like he was on the verge of panicking but was doing his best to keep himself at bay.

Taehyung took a moment to organize his thoughts before he spoke, seemingly ready for the conversation that was ahead.

"So, I was just going about my day... you know, as one does. And I was thinking to myself about things, about life... you know, as one does. Oh my god, I think, I think I'm about to ramble. Anyway, so I was just tidying up a bit while I was thinking about work, life, progress and whatnot when I started repeating my name in my head, like I was calling out to myself. And then I started wondering why I was doing that, it did not make sense to me. It was almost like it was an involuntary thing when it hit me. Was that Taetae? Was he trying to talk to me?"

"And? What do you think? Was it him?" – Jungkook asked.

"Wait, that's not all. After hearing my name a few times I thought okay, maybe this is Taetae, maybe I should respond and see what happens, you know?"

Taehyung was speaking and expressing himself with much more feeling than Jungkook was used to seeing on a semi-calm Taehyung. There was pacing and flailing arms. If this wasn't an important moment or more precisely an important milestone on Taehyung's journey, Jungkook would probably have been cooing by now.

"So? Did you respond?" – Jungkook was impatient. It was as though he was watching this 800 page long story reaching a climax and he was unable to take the suspense any longer. This build-up that was finally reaching an important point was taking too damn long and Jungkook was ready to pounce on the book to turn the page and find out the following moments of this story.

"Yes, yes I did. I mean it's now or never right? Or it felt like that at least. Anyway, I hear back a quite little – hi Taehyung. It really sounded like a child. He sounded like a child."

"He is a child Taehyung. I wish you could meet him. He's the embodiment of sunshine. You'd love him."

"Well now you're making me jealous. " – A little smirk snuck onto Taehyung's face and that's when he knew calling Jungkook over was the most brilliant thought he had all day.

"What do you mean silly? Don't worry, you'll always be important, I hope you don't think that I prefer the company of your alters over yours?"

"No, that's not what I meant-"

"Shsht. Let me get this out right now. I absolutely adore Taetae. I cherish V's company as well. I also cherish yours, Taehyung. You have to know that although I see and realize that you three are different individuals sharing a single space, you are also each a part of one whole. So, regardless of the fact that there are three personalities, if one is important then all are important."

"I told you Kookie is special ~~~."

Taehyung chuckled.

"What?" – Jungkook asked, smiling – "Why are you laughing? What's funny?"

"I know." – Taehyung replied.

It took a moment for Jungkook to realize and then it dawned on him, and before he could ask, Taehyung already responded.

"Taetae is here."
