When His Eyes Opened- TK

CHAPTER 5

Tae was so startled that he could not help but take a few steps back.

Jungkook was like a savage beast that had awakened from a deep slumber. There was nothing scary about him when he was asleep. When he was awake, however, there was a menacing air of danger around him.

Mrs. Min walked out of the room and shut the door.

She saw Tae-who looked like a deer caught in headlights-and said gently, "Don't be afraid, Sir. Master Jungkook just woke up, so he might not be able to accept the news yet. Let's get you to the guest room for tonight, and we'll talk in the morning. Madam Jeon loves you, so she might just be on your side."
Taehyung's mind was in a frenzy. He had thought about how Jungkook might die any day, but he never thought about the possibility that he might regain consciousness.

"Mrs. Min, my things are still in the room..." Tae said as he glanced at the door of the master bedroom, hoping to enter and take all of his belongings.

Judging by the vicious glare that Jungkook had aimed at him earlier, he had a strong feeling that he was not going to accept him as his wife.

He needed to be ready to leave the mansion at any time.

Mrs. Min let out a sigh and said, "Let's leave it there for now if it's nothing too important. I'll get it for you tomorrow."

"Okay," Tae responded, then asked, "Are you afraid of him?"

"I've worked for him for a long time," said Mrs. Min. "He may look scary, but he has not made things difficult for me."

Tae grunted in response, then spoke no further.

He might be his wife, but strictly speaking, this was their first meeting. It was understandable that he might act hostile toward him.

Tae did not sleep well that night. His mind was filled with a million chaotic thoughts.

Jungkook's recovery had completely disrupted the pace of his life.

At eight in the morning the next day, Mrs. Min retrieved all of Tae's belongings from the master bedroom and sent them to the guest room he was in.

"It's time for breakfast, sir," said Mrs. Min. "Master Jungkook is already in the dining room. You should go there too! Talk to him and get to know each other a little."

"I don't think he wants to get to know me," Tae grimaced.

"You still need to have breakfast. Come on, now! He didn't even get mad when I told him that Madam Jenna likes you! His attitude might be a little better today," said Mrs. Min.

When Taee arrived at the dining room, his eyes fell on the wheelchair- bound Jungkook.

He was able to move his arms thanks to routine muscle training.

He sat up straight despite being in a wheelchair. He would surely be tall and strapping if he stood up.

Filled with uneasiness, Tae sat himself down at the dining table as Mrs. Min set up a place for him.

Jungkook did not say a word even as Tae picked up his fork.

He could not help but sneak a peek at him, which immediately garnered Jungkook's attention.

His eyes were like bottomless black holes that could swallow a person whole.
"Hey... I'm... I'm Kim Taehyung..." Tae stammered anxiously.
