----------------------------------------

As they pass by the celebration, Jungkook pauses, his gaze settling on Taehyung's mother amidst the revelry. With a deep breath, he turns to Yoongi, determination etched in his features. "Take Jieun out," he instructs, his voice firm despite the turmoil within. Yoongi looks at Jungkook with confusion, but Jungkook reassures him with a subtle blink before passing Jieun into his care. "Take her out, I'll be there in a minute," he adds before turning his attention back to Taehyung's mother.

Once he's sure Jieun is safely out of harm's way, Jungkook fixes his gaze on Taehyung's mother. With a resolute air, he strides forward, his movements exuding power and determination. Jin, conversing with Namjoon, notices Jungkook's approach and observes his stiff posture with concern.

Ignoring the curious glances of onlookers, Jungkook marches straight toward Taehyung's mother. In one swift motion, he flips the table in front of her, startling the surrounding guests. Jin flinches at the sudden commotion, while Taehyung's mother is taken aback by the display of aggression.

When the individual who had previously attacked him attempts to intervene, Jungkook swiftly retaliates with a punch, sending him staggering backward. Hyunjin, noticing the altercation, moves to confront Jungkook once more, but Hoseok intervenes, advising him to hold back.

Seething with pent-up anger, Jungkook seizes a nearby chair and positions it in front of Taehyung's mother. Taking a seat, he locks eyes with her, his gaze burning with intensity. Taehyung's mother, sensing the gravity of the situation, takes a deep breath to steady herself, feeling a twinge of fear at the sight of Jungkook's red eyes and the palpable aura of anger emanating from him.

With a solemn tone, Jungkook addresses her directly. "Deal with me," he declares, his voice carrying a weight of determination. "I'll bear it. But deal with Jieun..."

Jungkook's gaze pierces through Taehyung's mother as he confronts her with a mixture of anger and resolve. "You've revealed the secret I kept from my daughter," he accuses, his voice cutting through the tense atmosphere, "Should I reveal it to your son?"

Taehyung's mother's eyes widen in disbelief, fear flickering across her face as she realizes the gravity of her actions. Her breath quickens, her heart pounding in her chest.

Without another word, Jungkook rises from his seat, his expression unreadable as he surveys the room. He turns on his heel and strides out of the venue, leaving Taehyung's mother shaken in his wake.

Outside, in the quiet solitude of the garden, Taehyung stands alone, tears streaming down his face as he grapples with his emotions. Hoseok observes him from a distance, his expression inscrutable, as he silently bears witness to Taehyung's anguish.

Yoongi's knuckles turn white as he grips the steering wheel, his heart pounding with sorrow. Bam sits silently beside him, sensing the tension in the air. In the backseat, Jungkook holds Jieun tightly, her small form cradled in his arms as she sleeps peacefully.

Suddenly, Jungkook feels Jieun go limp in his arms, and panic surges through him like a tidal wave. "Jieun!" he cries out in terror, his voice cracking with emotion. Yoongi's eyes widen in alarm, and he slams on the brakes, the screech of tires echoing in the air.

Frantically, Jungkook tries to rouse Jieun, shaking her gently and pleading with her to wake up. Tears blur his vision as he looks to Yoongi for help, his voice trembling with fear. "Hyung, she's not waking up," he says, his words choked with emotion.
