Chapter 1: Care

Third Person's P.O.V :-

It had been a month since Kim Taehyung had married Jeon Jungkook.

A month since he saw his future spouse waiting for him at the altar in a wheelchair, looking very displeased and unwilling to be there.

A month since Jeon Jungoh and Jeon Eunji left the keys of Jungkook's house to Taehyung along with his numerous prescription, medicine boxes, doctor appointment lists and a manual which contained vague instructions on how to care for their, now disabled and dependent, son.

Two maids and one butler as house helps to aid him.

No nurses.

Perhaps because Taehyung knew that now he was to be Jungkook's brand new nurse, an unpaid one, that he could not drive out by yelling or acting rude anymore.

Taehyung sighed as he stepped through the hallway of the massive three story house with a tray of food in his hands.

Jungkook already belonged from a rich family, son of Jeon Jungoh, who was the owner of a chain of hotels, and his son, Jeon Jungkook, who chose to be a rebel and instead of joining the family business, built an import and export company from scratch and made it one of the most reliable one in the country.

The fame made him soar towards the top as he was named the entrepreneur who brought about a golden age of economy to the country. The headlines used to be filled with his name all the time, until six months ago.

The news of Jeon Jungkook's car going out of control on the highway and crashing in a tree brutally, spread through the breaking news like wild fire.

A critical spinal cord injury that left him paralyzed from the waist down.

It was all over the news as the pictures of a crashed car and the footage of Jungkook's partially bloody body being rushed inside the ambulance were showcased all over.

Taehyung was a simple caretaker of a rehabilitation clinic, he wasn't even a nurse. A caretaker who was struggling to make the ends meet.

It has been three months since the accident and he only knew that Jeon Jungkook was being treated in the clinic where he worked at, he hadn't even seen the famous businessman directly once in his life before and he wasn't even expecting to.

But one accidental meeting with Jeon Jungoh in the smocking area of that clinic changed everything as three months later he found himself standing at the altar, getting married to the said businessman.

Taehyung sighed as he kept on walking. The maids had informed him that Jungkook refused to eat again today and smashed all the plates of food brought in by them in a fit of anger.

Walking inside Jungkook's bedroom, it was quite obvious to Taehyung that Jungkook had become very thin.

His hair was tangled, and huge dark circles were under his eyes from hours of staring out the window, not sleeping, and sitting in a wheelchair. Mourning over his fate.

Jungkook, who sat in front of Taehyung was originally 5'10" inches in height, he was tall and had broad shoulders, the once handsome face now gaunt due to his illness.

Light brown chestnut hair fell just below his ears, framing a face marred by shadows of sadness and anger.

Piercing black eyes, once filled with warmth, now held a haunted look that seemed to carry the weight of his grief. His skin appeared pale, contrasting sharply with the tattoos covering his left arm, symbol of a past life he believed he'd left behind.

The paralysis had made his body weak, and the once-muscular frame now seemed lanky and frail. Despite his state, traces of his former self lingered, hinting at a man who was once brimming with vitality.
