The Love Untold

8.

"Taehyung, do we really have to do this?" Jungkook asked intertwining his hand with now his husband's and hugging his bicep with the other hand. Tae looked at his side glancing at his wife.He cupped the younger's cheek with one hand rubbing his cheekbone slowly, "I am here with you. And we didn't do anything wrong. There's no need to hide away. We will go inside and ask for their blessing and forgiveness for hurting them. It's their right to be angry on us but as their children it's our responsibility to ask forgiveness.Wether they forgive us or not is upto them" "I am scared.What if they try to separate us?"

"We are married, Jungkook. The vermillion on your forehead and mangalsutra on your neck is it's proof. None but death can separate us.So, stop worrying and let's get over with it hm?"

With racing hearts the newly wedded couple entered the Jeon mansion. They were surprised at the crowd gathering inside the mansion. Both shared a glance among each other and neared the crowd. Their eyes widened when they found Jimin and Yoongi sitting inside a circle of people and doing some post maritual rituals. Jungkook's eyes widened at the revelation. But before he could say something, he was harshly pulled backwards and taken to his room with Taehyung closely following from behind. "Baba stop you are hurting me" he tried his best to detach his hand from his father's hold but the man only stopped when he was inside his room. Jungkook immediately stood close to Taehyung who pulled him closer with his hand wrapped around his shoulder. Jungkook's parents were sitting on the couch in his room while Jungkook and Taehyung were standing in front of them looking down.

"What is the meaning of all of this Kim Taehyung?" Jeon Wonwoo asked through gritted teeth.His voice was on such a dangerous octave that Jungkook scooted more close to his husband if it was even possible and his held on the elder's hand tightening with each passing second. "B-Baba Taeh-" Jungkook stopped when his father raised one hand gesturing him to shut up. "I am asking your husband here"

"We love each other, Sir"

"And I should believe you because?" Wonwoo asked and Taehyung left speechless for a second. All the time he has known the elder, he has been nothing but sweet, supportive and welcoming. But right now the man sitting in front of him wasn't his student's father instead he was his wife's father. A wife he married by eloping. Even though he didn't do the deed.Still it won't make any difference now. He opened his mouth to say something, but Jeon Wonwoo defeated him, "Kim Taehyung. A final year medical student living in a two bedroom with six family members and not to forget that wholeass family's responsibility on him. Barely meeting his day to day needs and top of that a bedridden father to be taken care of. On the other hand, Jeon Jungkook the oldest son of Jeon's. The half owner of entire jeon's property. Born and grown up with a life you couldn't even think of in your dream.His weekly expense is more than what you earn in a year. Top of that your half income comes from tutoring my youngest son if you have forgiven. In which sense did you think you deserve my son?"

"Baba-"
"You have spoken enough Kook. I want answers from him. It's between him and I. Or you don't think I have the right to question your husband now? Have you grown up that much?Tell me Kim Taehyung. Just because you have been teaching my son for years and we showed some pity on you, my wife let you call him as Maa, donated things for you and named them as gifts; did you really forget the line we have between us? We show sympathy and humanity towards the beggar sitting on road too so do you think he has the capability to become my son-in-law? Do you think I am sitting here to donate my children as charity?WHY ARE YOU SILENT NOW HUH? WHY CAN'T YOU UTTER A WORD NOW?HOW DARE YOU LURE MY SON INTO YOUR DIRTY GAMES? HOW DARE YOU BETRAY ME STAYING RIGHT UNDER MY NOSE HUH?"

"MR.Jeon I might be poor but I am not a gold digger. I love your son. I had no intention to hurt or insult you"

"REALLY? YOU HAD NO INTENTION TO HURT ME? YOU ELOPED WITH MY SON RIGHT WHEN HE WAS TO MARRY ANOTHER MAN. ENTIRE CITY WAS HERE. I WOULD HAVE BECOME A TOPIC OF LAUGH AND MOCKERY IF MY SON JIMIN DIDN'T STEP UP AND SAVED MY HONOUR.ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?"

" Baba p-please. Y-You a-are misunderstanding him.He i-isn't at fault here.I-I"

"He isn't at fault, huh? What lackings did we have in our upbringing Kookah? What did you see in him? Is this your standard? Is this how we raised you? We have hundreds of paid servants here. We are to pity them and help them lead a life. We are not to take that life on ourselves. Did your mother not teach that much huh?Why did you think he deserves you? You are my precious child. I raised like a prince. And you ended up yourself in a drain?"

"I will prove it you MR.Jeon . I will prove it you that Jungkook's choice wasn't wrong. I will turn my fate and stand in front of you oneday.That day you will feel ashamed of your words and you will know how wrong you were"

"Are you challenging me Kim?"

"Yes, sir.It's a challenge"

"Fine. Untill you don't complete your challenge let my son live here. The day you return with all the capabilities I myself will hand over my son to you" Mr.Jeon's words made Jungkook's eyes widen with horror. He looked at his husband and his heart dropped.
