Let me Love you | TK

Chapter:17

Jungkook's POV: (few days later)

"What's that scar on your cheek kookie?"
Hyung asked as soon as I facetimed him.

Shit--I should've concealed it somehow.

I let out a nervous laugh making it more obvious that what's about to come out of my mouth is nothing but lies.

"Hyung actually I-"

"Don't you dare lie to me Jungkook" he warned me.

I know what will happen if I tell him the truth. There's no way hyung will allow me in this house any other second after what my so called father did...

Yoongi hyung is already furious about all this marriage x business drama. He won't tolerate knowing I went through a literal physical harm from the man that's supposed to protect me from the monsters.

Too bad, he decided to become one.

And before I had even realized it, my eyes were already welling up with tears. I hate how 'unmanly' I am.. I don't know if that's even a word but whatever it is, it's not in my control. My emotions just get all over the place.. I wonder if my father is the reason my inner strength is close to none. I wonder if he's right about everything he says about me.

"For God's sake tell me Jungkook. You are not okay and I can clearly see that."

I take a deep breath. He's my brother. He has a right to know.

"He did that to me." I whispered and squeezed my eyes shut, a painful stinging tear oozing out.

"Fucking enough Jungkook. You are coming to me by next flight. I don't care about anything else. I am booking your ticket now. Right now" He declared. I could see the veins visible on his forehead due to immense anger. But his expressions were still softened in worry and love for me "Please" he pleads when he sees my eyes wide in disapprovel "Listen to your brother for once. Don't stay there Jungkook. He has messed with you enough. I wouldn't be able to spend any minute in peace knowing you are in the same place as him"

"But what about mom?"  And Tae?. I wanted to ask but I kept that part to myself. "Don't take another son from her Hyung.. she would be devastated." I say.

Hyung melts at the mention of mom. He always do. "But few days Kook?" He says after sometime "I miss you. At least I will be assured if you spent some time with me.." he requests "besides Mom will be fine Don't worry much hm?"

I and hyung had always been well awared of the fact that Dad loves her too much. He has never raised his voice at her let alone a hand. At least that's a relief.

He maybe a good husband but he was never a good father and that makes him even terrible father-in-law so how will I be at peace while Tae is here alone?

"And Taehyung?" I couldn't help but show my worry about my husband.. specially now that I know I won't be at company with him either..

My father must be having all those evil plans against him... I know he's alone strong enough to even stand against the whole world but it's just constant battle between my faith over him and my protectiveness over him.

And most of the times, my protectiveness wins.

"You think he would be bothered by what you do or what you not. Or where you stay?"
He wouldn't have said that if he knew my feelings towards Tae.

Cuz his words make my chest constricted painfully.

That's right.. Tae does not care about me.

It's me whose stomach twists in worry when he skips any meal or even if he eats lesser than usual.
