Crystal Snow

Chapter Thirty-Nine

Jungkook pressed his tongue inside of his left cheek letting out a deep sigh before stretching his arms out as his back hurt from crouching down too long for cleaning the toilet.

He is not assigned on his one. He often gets the customer's order or he's waiting for the customers to lead them in their reserved seat. It is because of his good looks that he's always presented in front of their customers.

However, the one assigned to the restroom is often absent these days. He heard that the middle-aged man has a problem with his family but he will come back, he just probably needs to sort things out.

Extra work means extra money, that's why he often- no. he always volunteers to clean the restroom so he can bring in much more money.

He's been searching for the things that they need. They have to buy a crib, clothes, socks, towels, diapers, and a lot more things for the baby. The fact that the operation will cost too much stressed Jungkook even more, he needs to fucking save up.

Having to smile in front of strangers, some of them are nice and some just have the attitude to degrade them knowing that they won't fight back, and having to clean a filthy restroom that probably has thousands of bacteria makes him want to give up.

He's not used to this kind of lifestyle. He never works because money is not his problem. He can just ask his mother for everything that he needs and she will give it right away.

It's different this time. Yoongi and their baby are responsible, not his mother's and not even the family of Yoongi. They are his and only his responsibility.

He searched for the brands of such things for the baby, he didn't even want to look at the price at first just reading about the quality of the product but all of them turned out to be much more pricey than he expected as well as the hospital bills that he's getting ready to saved up for.

The working young boy already accepted the fact that even though he badly wants to do all the financial things, he still doesn't have the means to do so. He still needs to ask his mother for some help but he promised that he wouldn't let her shoulder all the expenses.

Jungkook took in a deep breath gathering the mop, detergent, and the gloves putting it in the storage room before going to his locker and changing into a fresh white shirt.

He licked his lower lips before taking in a deep breath feeling every ounce of his energy leaving his body because of the amount of work that he just did.

"Jungkook, do you wanna go with us?" A teenage girl who's also a part-timer in the restaurant asked.

The boy just raised his brows and said, "To where?"

"We're going to eat somewhere. You should come with us." She said with an overly excited voice.

Jungkook shrugged his shoulders but immediately shook his head, "Sorry, I can't tonight." He said.

The girl was about to say something but Jungkook didn't even give her the chance to he bowed at his co-workers and already made his way out of the restaurant walking straight to the parking lot and going inside his car.

He picked out his phone from his pocket first and dialed Yoongi's number seeing that it was just nine in the evening, he knew that the younger was still awake watching a comedy show in their living room.

"Kookie..."

The older can already picture the younger curled up like a ball on their sofa with a small pout forming on his lips.

"Any cravings?" He asked.

He wants to buy everything that the younger wants because he doesn't want to wake up early in the morning to prepare some horrible food to satisfy Yoongi's cravings.

"I'm not hungry just go home."

"I'm on my way, doll."

There was a long silence after that nickname slipped out from Jungkook's mouth so the older chuckled, "See you in a bit, bye." He said before ending the call.

Even Jungkook is surprised by himself- how he completely changed his mind about the baby and Yoongi. How all of his perception has changed and how he realized how much the life that Yoongi is carrying will mean so much to him, he is not yet in this world but Jungkook knows that he will do anything in his power to give nothing but the best to their child.

While driving, he stopped his car on the corner when he saw Hoseok leaning against his car. He rolled down the window furrowing his brows, it's already late at night.

"What are you doing here, hyung?" He asked.

Hoseok's eyes widened in shock as he saw his younger friend. He smiled, "Waiting for my girlfriend, she had piano lessons." He said.

Then Jungkook looked at the building across from them nodding his head, it was a music studio.

"Loyal now, huh?" He smirked at his older friend, "So it takes a beautiful woman for you to behave." He playfully said.

Hoseok shrugged his shoulders accepting the younger's word. He too doesn't even realize that he is changing for his girlfriend. No, there's no one dictating to him, he just wants to be a better man.

"Don't act all clean, Jeon. I heard you're whipped for that young boy." Hoseok said with challenging eyes.

The both of them let out a small laugh before Jungkook shrugged his shoulders, "I have to go now, hyung. Take care." He said.

The older nodded his head waving his arms when the younger drove away already.

Jungkook is tired but still doesn't forget to buy a chicken sandwich and a bunch of fries at McDonald's just in case the young boy waiting for him gets hungry, he has something to give.

He opened the gate and parked his car inside before jogging his way out to close their gate making sure that it was locked.

He bit his lower lips twisting the knob and letting out a small smile when he heard a cheesy exchange of dialogues, he's into romance now.

Closing the door, he walked towards the living room putting the food on the coffee table in the middle first before looking at the younger who fell asleep with his nose scrunched up.

"So cute." He said while staring at the younger boy, "Sorry." He whispered.
