In a somber atmosphere charged with unspoken tension, Bogum's voice cut through the heavy silence. "Taehyung, I trusted you. When you were hurting from the divorce, I was there for you. I never imagined... I never thought you'd betray that trust."
Taehyung's gaze faltered under the weight of Bogum's accusation, his heart heavy with the weight of guilt and regret. "Bogum, I never intended for this to happen," he began, his voice laced with remorse. "When we said those things about our kids, it was innocent. I never foresaw any of this."
"But Taehyung, you and I are peers. We're equals," Bogum countered, his tone a mix of disappointment and disbelief. "You were like family, and now... I don't even know how to process this."

"Do you know why I always kept you close to Jungkook?" Bogum's voice trembled with restrained anger. "I saw how much you loved kids. I wanted to help you move on from the divorce, to make you see Jungkook as a son, hoping it would help you heal. But this..." He paused, his disappointment hanging heavy in the air.
Taehyung's heart clenched at Bogum's words, the weight of his misguided intentions crashing down on him. "I never meant to betray your trust," he whispered, his voice heavy with regret. "I didn't realize how much it would hurt you."
"I brought you closer to Jungkook because I thought of you as family, Taehyung," Bogum continued, his voice tinged with a mix of sorrow and anger. "I wanted to support you, not watch you cross boundaries that should never have been crossed."
Taehyung bowed his head, tears welling up in his eyes. "I'm sorry," he uttered, the words weighted with the depth of his remorse. "I never wanted to disappoint you or break that trust."
Bogum's expression softened momentarily, but his pain remained evident. "You know the implications of this. The secrecy, the betrayal... it's too much," he sighed, struggling to comprehend the depth of the situation.
Taehyung's eyes welled up with tears, his heart heavy with the burden of the situation. "I understand if you can't forgive me," he admitted, his voice trembling with emotion. "But please know, my feelings for Jungkook... they're real, even if they've led us here. I truly and utterly love him"
Their conversation hung heavy in the air, the weight of the unspoken truths and shattered trust casting a shadow over their once-close relationship, leaving behind a poignant reminder of the complexities of forbidden love and the consequences of hidden desires.
