RESILIENT [KOOKV]

fifteen

Welcome 💜

The next day , taehyung left the palace without even a good morning to the king. He didn't bother asking for his driver or maid as he decided he was going to drive himself for the day.

He head to a bank to wire some money to Jungkook's account as promised before he starts driving towards the said male's company, as he steps into jungkook's company. The staffs lowered their heads in respect as usual and he just nods at them as he walk away.

When he knocked on the CEO office , the reply didn't came early as he expected. He only shuffling in the room before a grumble permission was forwarded to him , he steps inside the room and sees jungkook siting on his seat with his hair slightly wet like someone who had just came out of the  shower.

"Are you busy?" Taehyung asks staring at the man who seem surprise to see him, honestly jungkook wasn't expecting taehyung to show up just the next day. Usually, some clients have issues coming up with their preferable location but taehyung just seem to have his shit plan.

"Not really, just finished bathing" jungkook answer standing up then motion taehyung to sits at the free couch in the office , taehyung frowns.

"You stay here?"

"Nah , I was busy last night and decided to spend my night here.... Anyways, did you come up with a location yet?" Jungkook asks and taehyung nods his head getting his phone out his pocket to show jungkook who hums.

"Okay! I'll start working on your project in two months, usually we take half payment down but you already made the whole payment, sorry we can't start right way as we have some pending project with us" taehyung nods again , eyeing going around to view the office as he was busy crying the last time he was here.

The awkward silence slowly settle back between them and taehyung wonder why this always happens , they've spoken on phone before probably two to three times and things shouldn't be this awkward between them but it always happens.

"I'll continue my work then" jungkook stands up walking back to his seat to continue his work while taehyung just sits for some minutes trying to collect his thoughts, he finally turn to jungkook after some moments. He find the CEO already lost into pile of files on his table.

"Jungkook?" He calls hesitantly and the  aforementioned male raised his head up , lifting his brow in confusion.

"Uhm-- since I can't get a divorce, what do you suggest I should do?" Taehyung bites his lips when jungkook only keep staring at him blankly for some moment before speaking up.

"I'm not trying to be mean but why do you always come to me for advice? I'm less closer to your compare to other guys , so why me?" Taehyung frown at the question, he really wasn't expecting jungkook to throw that at him.

"I-- don't know.... It's just that---- Uhm , you are not emotional attached to me and will always give honest opinion but my friends are quite overprotective.... You don't certainly tell me what to do , you give me your advice and leave me to clear my shits but the rest of the guys? They'll be doing everything for me and that makes me feel like a push over" jungkook took his time to digest the boy's explanation, he knows what he have heard and seen and he can boldly said taehyung is right hundred percent.

The night the king announced his heir to the world, Jin had to stop yoongi and hoseok from badging into the palace and help taehyung pack his luggages. So when the pretty male told him they suggested him a divorce, jungkook already predicted that.

So he understands what message taehyung was trying to pass.

"I'm not good with twisting word but that's a unique way to say you found comfort in me, I'm flattered" jungkook chuckle slightly when taehyung look away , probably because the CEO decided to break his whole presentation into simply words.

"I guess , so what's your advice" taehyung quickly decided to cover up the topic with another one.

"I'll say don't cry over split milk, it'll only make you look stupid"

Ouch..... That's some cruel advice but it's definitely needed.

When taehyung gets back into the palace , he was met with the sight of Lee in ho playing with his child inside big living room.

He decided to ignore him and the pain looming in his heart , he really needs to stop crying over split milk or else he's really going to look stupid.

But he halt in his step when he heard the king calling out his name.

"You're back? How was your day"   the king asks smiling softly at taehyung who fisted his hands to his side, trying hard not to burst out in the present of the kid, he turn with a fake smile.

"Good" he grumble and quickly walk away from the living room , his tensed body eased the moment he was in the hall way that leads to his room. His mind finally register the fact that he haven't set his eyes on his maids for days now.

As he was lost into his thoughts, he bumped into someone causing his to fall on the floor , he groan mentally praying a day free of drama for him. But guess that's impossible in this palace and this people met him when he was good , the teenage taehyung would've combat their asses into the moon. And he can't give his promises on not doing that when he raise his head and met with the sight of three concubines.

They're ganging up on him now? It makes him feels like a small high school boy who just got transferred to a new school and the bully makes him their taehyung. Fuck Lee in ho for making him going through all this.

"Oh it's the Queen" the mockery in the turn didn't move taehyung a bit , he just stare at them tryin to remember each name of these humans.

But he gave up when he couldn't, he yell for the guards who came running just in seconds.

"Tell your king, I want these dogs out of this palace or I'm moving out of the palace"

"Why'd you move out for them? You're the queen and partially rule this palace, you don't even need me to chase anyone out of the palace" everyone turns their heads towards the king who was walking closer to them, the concubines eyes went wide in shock.

Taehyung mentally curses the king in his head for playing a mind game with him but smile widely anyways, he turn with a smirk towards the concubines.

"You three are now banned from entering the palace, if in anyway.... You're seen anywhere in the palace , you and your whole family will be hang to death" from his side eyes, taehyung can see the king eyes going wide in shock before he quickly turn his face blank.

"Now drag them out" the guards didn't have to be told twice , after they left the king tried to speak to taehyung but the pretty male just roll his eyes and walk into his room.

He picked up his phone calling jimin's number.

"Let's hold a party chim"
