Jimin

Normally, a daughter would be pleased with their mother at their wedding but me? Never. 

Jungkook looked at her confused "How does she know your name?" Jungkook whispers to me as I remember that he and San went to her asking for the doctor. I work a swallow down my throat as I whisper "Mother... She's my mother." Jungkook's eyes widened as he looked at me and I looked back at him "M-mother...? Your mother? I need to go bow-" "Don't" 

I look at Wooyoung who also said it as Jungkook and San and the whole damn crowd was looking at us "Marrying without telling your mother, Jimin?" She asks as gasps and whispers fill the room in seconds. My eyes land on a woman who was looking at all these with amusement

Lia. Seconds ago, she was burning in jealousy and now she's probably thinking of the worst. And to tell you what? I despise her so much that I will turn everything over. 

My gaze goes down to my mother who was walking towards the aisle but was stopped by Mama "Miss, I know you are trying to talk to my daughter-in-law but please wait until the marriage is over." Her glare goes up to Mama "She's not your daughter-in-law yet. And I will talk to her whenever I want to. She's my daughter." Mama smiles at her "I know but she wouldn't want her marriage to be interrupted." My mother shrugs "I don't want the marriage so I don't care" 

"But I do," I say as their eyes fall on me while Jungkook glances up at me and I do the same to him. He smiled and nodded as I exhaled and nodded before turning to face my mother "I am in the middle of something here. Please-" "Jimin. Down, now." I shake my head "Apologies, I can't." "Jimin." I held my tears in and shook my head again "Apologies." 

She huffed "Why? Too scared that I will take you back to the broken hut of ours? Too scared that you won't be able to wear all these if we go back?" I scoffed, letting out a sardonic laugh. A mother. She's a freaking mother. "There is nothing left between us." "I just want to talk." "I don't want to." Before she could reply, Lia, out of nowhere stepped in with a dramatic gasp "Seriously!? Jimin, she's your mother! Do you talk like this with your mother? You know that-" 

Jungkook cuts her off "My father himself calls her by the name 'Queen', and you think you have the right to call her by her name? And, excuse you, Lia, you are a nonentity in her family business. I am not intruding but you are. A nobody." Her eyes darkened leaving a satisfied smile on my lips as he continued "Respectfully, stroll out of this conversation just like how you strolled into it." She stumbles back as her face goes red in embarrassment 

My mother spared him a glance before glancing back at me "I've got someone better." I roll my eyes "You wanted to marry me off to a random stranger. I bet he had the money. And then, so does he." I point at Jungkook. He stiffens by my side "Greetings, I am Jeon Jung-" "I know." I glared in his direction as he looked at me with a 'What am I supposed to do' expression.

I am going to smack the back of his head later. 

I turned to face him as he looked at me. I then looked at Wooyoung "Hand me the ring." Thank God, she caught the ring just in time when it slipped out of my finger when I saw her. She nodded and did as told and I put my hand out "Come on..." "You sure?" I nod and he places his hand on mine "Jimin-" "Please, not now." She scoffs "JIMIN, WHAT IF HE'S NOT WORTH IT!?" I go still and then glare at her, tears forming in my eyes "Then was that stranger worth it?" 

She huffs "I am too sick, too poor. The only option I had was to marry you off to him." I swallow and hold Jungkook's hand tighter which he responded by holding my hand softly. I lift my wrist "You never noticed this?" She squinted her eyes in confusion as she stepped closer but two shields stopped her "Let her." My soon-to-be father-in-law finally spoke. 

He looked at me and I looked at him. He hesitated at first but then smiled at me and nodded.

Mother stepped closer and then looked at the mark "What about it?" Mama stepped closer, removed the crown from her head, and showed it to my mother "This." She compared the two and a gasp escaped her lips "She..." "The chosen one? Yes." Mama softly says "So, this marriage has to happen?" Mama nodded. My mother looked at me with tears in her eyes "Do you love him?" I turn towards Jungkook and look up at him. 

I slid the ring on his finger and looked up at his happy yet shocked eyes. He smiles at me and I turn towards my mother "More than you could think of." She looks away and wipes her tears, taking a step back while Mama looks at her. She was ready to leave but Mamam stopped her by holding her wrist "Please watch your daughter marry the love of her life.. If you want, I will get them married all over again." She looked at her "I just humiliated your son-" "You commented attributes." 

I looked at Jungkook with wide eyes as he bit back a dramatic gasp of his. 

"Please stay." Mother exhaled and slowly nodded. The priest exhaled "Well, you may kiss." I looked up at him and he looked down at me and stepped closer "A kiss after a whole week." "You better contr-" I couldn't get my sentence out when he wrapped an arm around my waist, pulling me closer and attaching his lips to mine. I closed my eyes and kissed him back gently as all the cheers and claps brought him back to reality and he slowly pulled back, looking at me

"I think I'm-" "No, I do not want to know." Wooyoung laughs beside me as I turn to face her to complain about him but saw her crying while San tries comforting her. San stepped aside and hugged Jungkook as I opened my arms for her. She hugs me tightly "If I get makeup all over your dress right now, don't condemn me." I giggle "I wasn't intending to." I break the hug and wipe the tears off her face "You need to stop crying." She nods "Listen, I-" 

She was cut off by someone calling me from behind. I turned around to face them as Mama smiled at me "You and Jungkook should walk down the aisle now. You have to talk to someone." I nodded already knowing who she meant. Jungkook and I held hands and walked down the aisle as everyone screamed "PUT THEIR CROWNS ON!" Jungkook chuckles hearing gasps "The prince knows how to smile?" We hear people whispering making me look at him "Were you that emotionless?" "Maybe." I giggle 

Well, all happiness aside, my eyes landed on a specific person who was wiping their tears off their face while her hair was a mess along with her clothes. 

I have to talk to her..
