10. No More Snacks

"We were about to spend the day together!" Jimin huffed as his mood swings kicked in. He was tucked into the bed with snacks all over the place.

As if he wasn't the one himself who made Jungkook go out for his work, he whisper-yelled while side eyeing the heartbreaking movie he was watching, "Koo is so bad!"

Jimin hugged his pillow with one hand, the other caressing his visible bump, "Your appa doesn't care for me." Tears formed into his eyes as he snuggled his face into the soft pillow.

"Argh!" he continued with a shrilled voice, "he could've denied when I had asked him to leave!"

Jimin sobbed silently, peeking a little to continue watching the movie.

"I need food!" He demanded. But oh— Jungkook wasn't here to serve him this time.

He pouted as he got off the bed carefully, walking towards the kitchen to bring some more snacks for himself.

"Oh no!" He exclaimed, "w-we... don't have a-any more s-snacks?" His voice weakened at the sight of no food visible nearby.

He slid down by the nearby wall in a dramatic way, "I'm about to die—" an idea soon popped up into his mind, "shall I go for shopping?"

'Don't leave the house alone while I'm not at home, alright?' He recalled what Jungkook said earlier before leaving.

But he, along with their unborn child, were starving even after already having their food.

"What shall I do?" He thought, having an inner turmoil with himself.

After a few minutes of sitting onto the cold ground and procrastinating, he finally decided.

Yes! I will go. Nothing will happen if I go alone for once. Also, we need some more items for the dinner!

With that, he picked up his phone, texting his husband that he'll be going out only for a moment.

' Hey Koo! ≩ᴗ≨ I'm going out shopping. And don't worry! I'll text you as soon as I'm back. Don't take more stress than you already do<3 '
Sent.

He giggled at his own text before getting up, finding a comfortable outfit to wear.

He covered himself up with warm clothes since the weather had changed drastically in just a few days. It was cold.

"Woo!" He squealed as he walked outside, feeling the chilly breeze hit his soft skin.

Moving forward, he thought of going to the nearby shop, which required only 5 minutes to reach if starting from their place.

Little did he know that a bunch of people were actually following him from behind...

He laughed lightly at his own mood swings. How he was so angry at Jungkook about just an hour ago, and how happy to go outside he is now.

"I wonder how Jungkook even keeps up with me during these days oh— hello!" He greeted the shop owner while bowing a little as he walked inside.

The owner was an elder lady, taking care of the shop with her two children who were almost of the same age as Jimin, "Ah! Hello Jiminshi!" She greeted back the familiar face.

Her eyebrows arched up at finding no Jungkook with him this time, "Where's your husband today?"

Jimin sighed, "He... he left me."

The lady's eyes widened as the realization hit her, "What?" She screeched, "how could that motherfucker leave you? You're such a sweet so—"

Jimin cut her off, "Ahh! No, no, aunty! I didn't mean it that way," he looked down embarrassingly, "he left for office."

The old lady sighed in relief, "You really scared me for a moment. You know, you are like my own son, so I get really protective sometimes," she laughed.

Jimin smiled at the laughing lady, feeling the joy overflowing in his body too, "I know, Aunty... even I see you as my own mother sometimes."

The two of them continued talking, not caring about their surroundings. And the people who were keeping an eye on the two of them. No, not on the aunty and Jimin... but maybe on the unborn child and Jimin.

"TAE!" Jungkook shouted, trying to get Taehyung's attention, his eyes never leaving his phone screen.

Taehyung ran towards his direction, panting, "What now?"

Nervousness clearly visible in his eyes as he replied, "Jimin said that he has left for shopping. Alone!"

Taehyung, too, got panicked a bit, knowing that Jimin was pregnant and that it wasn't safe for him to go out alone, "Has he already left? Are you sure?"

"Yes! He sent me this message almost 30 minutes ago! And I'm such a bad husband to read it just now..." His voice softened at the end.

Taehyung sighed, coming forward, "Don't worry, Kook. Jimin might not be able to take care of himself very well, but he surely will be more careful now. He is much more mature than you think so." He pat his friend's back, trying to soothe his nervousness a bit.

"Okay. Maybe I'm just overreacting, right?"
