Chapter 35

Third person's pov

Jungkook was throwing up, and Hyunjae was patting his back gently. Once Jungkook finished, he rinsed his mouth at the sink, gripping the counter for support.

Hyunjae’s face was pale with concern. “Eomma, are you okay?” Jungkook gave a little nod.

Hyunjae wrapped his arms around Jungkook’s shoulders, guiding him to the living room. He made Jungkook sit on the sofa, his touch gentle. Jungkook said, “I’m okay.”

Hyunjae furrowed his brows. “Is the broth that bad?”

Jungkook shook his head, leaning back against the cushions. “It wasn’t the broth. I just felt really nauseous all of a sudden.”

Hyunjae poured some water into a glass and handed it to Jungkook. “Here, drink this.” He rubbed Jungkook’s back soothingly. “Should I call a doctor?”

Just then, Sujae came downstairs, noticing the scene, he asked, “What’s happening?”

Hyunjae glanced at Sujae. “Eomma felt sick all of a sudden.”

Jungkook took a sip of water, his hands trembling slightly. “I’m feeling better now. I’ll be fine with a bit of rest. Don’t worry.”

Sujae looked worried. “Shouldn’t we call a doctor to be sure?”

Suddenly Jungkook’s eyes welled up with tears. “I’m fine! Why are you both not believing me? Do you think I’m lying?” He started crying, his shoulders shaking with sobs.

Hyunjae and Sujae’s eyes widened in shock. Hyunjae immediately knelt down, wrapping his arms around Jungkook in a tight hug. He rubbed Jungkook’s back, trying to calm him. “Eomma, we didn’t mean it like that.”

Sujae grabbed a tissue and gently wiped Jungkook’s tears. “If you don’t want us to call a doctor, we won’t. We’re just worried about you.”

Jungkook sniffed, calming down a bit. “I forgive you both.” He hugged them adorably, resting his head on Hyunjae’s shoulder.

Hyunjae and Sujae exchanged confused glances, unsure of what had caused Jungkook’s sudden mood swings, but they hugged him back tightly.

They didn't wanted to upset Jungkook again so they thought not to call the doctor.

That night, Jungkook fell asleep quickly, exhausted from the emotional rollercoaster.

Around midnight, he woke up with a grumbling stomach. He rubbed his eyes and decided to head to the kitchen for a snack. Opening the fridge, he spotted a jar of Nutella and a box of kimchi. His cravings took over, and he grabbed both items, placing them on the kitchen counter.

He picked up a pair of chopsticks and started dipping kimchi into the Nutella, savoring the strange but satisfying combination.

His feet kicked lightly in delight as he enjoyed the taste. After finishing his snack, he put the containers back in the fridge and tiptoed back to bed, feeling content.

"It was so good," He muttered to himself as he laid back down in bed.

The next morning...........

In the morning, Jungkook lay in bed, the clock showing it was already past 12 PM. He felt unusually tired and nauseous, even though he hadn’t done anything strenuous. He rolled over in bed, sighing heavily. Just then, the maid came in with a tray, carefully placing it on the bedside table.

“Sir, I brought you some ginger tea,” the maid said softly, standing by the bed.

Jungkook glanced at the cup, wrinkling his nose. “I don’t feel like drinking it.”
