EP04: Elvira's tragic end

It was a bright and cool day outside and Taehyung had decided to take the midwife's advice and go out for a walk. He also needed to divert his thoughts from the same white blood stained panty that was found hanging on their backyard's door. This time Jungkook had found it when he was inspecting the house thoroughly.

He couldn't shake the thought of it belonging to their maid, but after searching her drawer and finding nothing but completely different ones from what they had found, he knew it wasn't her.

It was an old fashioned cotton panty, while the ones their maid had in her drawer had lace at the border. Taehyung was currently only using his maternity panties. And no way would it belong to Jungkook because he would never ditch his Calvin Klein.

What bothered Taehyung the most was, who did it belong to and what is it doing in their house? He figured it must have been some sort of sick prank by someone, since they are new here.

But who would do this?

And what's their purpose for even doing so?

As Taehyung started getting dressed, he couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment in his heart. Dressing up his daughter, who looked like an angel, was his favorite thing in the world.

He picked out a pair of lovely pink shorts and a matching top for her, helping her put them on as she giggled and squirmed with joy on the bed. Taehyung then put her in a diaper, knowing that it was easier to clean up any mess she might make while on their walk.

As he placed her in the stroller, he felt a sense of relief wash over him. The fresh air would do them both good, and he could spend some quality time with his little one. He was about to leave when the maid stopped him by the door.

"Good day sir Taehyung," she came up to him, greeting him cheerfully.  The aforementioned nod his head, mumbling a soft good day back. "Where are you going sir?"

"I need some fresh air. I was advised to go out for a walk. Midwife and Jungkook, both will be angry if I don't take care."

"Your husband seems very caring and possessive." Says Hyun-Joo, "I kinda like that type of a guy. He is so tall, strong and handsome too. Like every girl's dream man!" Taehyung's stomach turned as he listened to her admiring his husband.

'and you are shameless,' Taehyung thought, his eyes glaring at the girl in front of him, 'drooling over my husband right in front of me?'

"And god!" She exclaimed with a clap, "I knew he had piercing on his eyebrow and lips but today, I got a glimpse of his right arm covered with tattoos. It sure looks hot but I find it a bit extreme if you ask me." She suddenly seemed excited about Jungkook's topic and it irked Taehyung alot.

"Please, restrain yourself," Taehyung snapped at the maid. "You know very well that Jungkook is my husband."

The maid looked taken aback by Taehyung's sudden outburst. He had gotten angry at her before but never snapped at her. This was the first time and she knew she actually crossed her line. "I apologize, sir Taehyung. I didn't mean any harm. I-i was just saying it–"

But Taehyung wasn't satisfied with just that, "what my husband does with his body is his own business, and it's not your place to judge him. Stop ogling at my husband. I suggest you stay within your limits from now on,” he said sternly before abruptly walking out with his daughter in the stroller.

Hyun-Joo shut her eyes close and slapped her palm over her lips. Regretting talking more than needed. "Taehyung already doesn't like me. Now he has a reason to hate me. I messed up."

As they walked down the lonely road, Taehyung breathed in the fresh air, feeling a sense of calm wash over him. He loved these walks, the peace and tranquility they provided, along with the opportunity to bond with his little girl. He felt a sense of peace, knowing that he was doing everything he could to take care of his baby and himself.
