"Who the hell are you?" Hoseok shouted as he threw his phone at the wall, shattering it into pieces. "Who are you to make decisions in my life?"

"Am I nothing to you, Hoseok?" Namjoon asked

"Yes, you are. But I have some rights too. And I will continue my career even after giving birth," Hoseok retorted.

"Hobi, we can discuss this later. Please, stay calm. This stress isn’t good for our child," Namjoon pleaded.

"You care more for the child than for me," Hoseok glared at him, eyes blazing with hurt. "You never supported me when your brother was shouting at me, insulting me. You never said a good word about me when you praised other actors to the world. You never let me see my own movie in which I acted. You never made me feel how people love me. You never allow me to get my limelight. You don't love me... Never... And you'll abandon me once I’ve given birth to your child. Isn't that right?"

"Hoseok..." Namjoon was taken aback, his face a mixture of shock and guilt.

"Baby..." Namjoon approached him slowly. "I told you, we can discuss it later. Please, just relax." He gently made Hoseok sit down. "You know I really love you, dear. You mean the world to me. I’m sorry if I haven’t shown it enough, but please, trust me. Let’s talk this through calmly."

Hoseok’s eyes filled with tears, his anger momentarily subsiding as the weight of his emotions bore down on him. "I just want to feel valued, Namjoon. I want to be seen."

Namjoon wrapped his arms around Hoseok, pulling him close. "You are valued, Hoseok. More than anything. Let’s work through this together. I promise to do better."

"Looks like you're angry at someone," Jin smiled at his brother.

"Hobi is slipping out of my control. I can't do anything, and that boy is carrying our child," Namjoon gritted his teeth.

"It's just pregnancy hormones, Joon," Tae shrugged.

"Not just hormones... I've never seen him like this before. Something's happened. Someone is influencing him," Namjoon mused.

"Who?" Jin and Tae asked in unison, their eyes widening.

"Guys..." Jimin entered the scene.

"Aishh..." Jin sighed.

"Hyungi...let's go," Jimin said, walking towards Jin.

"Where?" Jin asked, puzzled.

"You promised to take me out today."

"Today? It's already 11, Jimin. Go to sleep. We can go tomorrow."

"No, I want to go now. If you love me, please come with me, otherwise I'll go alone."

"What the hell? I told you we can go tomorrow," Jin shouted.

"No... I want to go now," Jimin insisted, sitting on the floor and starting to cry like a child.

"What the..." Namjoon and Tae looked away, trying to hide their amusement.

"Another headache..." Jin gritted his teeth and walked to Jimin. "Come on, let's go."

"Okay!" Jimin immediately jumped up from the floor and dragged Jin outside.

"Poor hyung... He knows how to manage the entire business world but not his wife," Tae laughed, and Namjoon joined in.

"You too, hyung," Tae said to Namjoon.

"Yeah... maybe... Thank God I don't have two wives," Namjoon's comment made Tae's face fall. "My life sucks," he sighed.

"How is he?" Jungkook asked the doctor.

"He is getting better day by day," the doctor replied with a reassuring smile.

"Oh," Jungkook responded with a forced smile before walking out. "Getting better day by day... Bitch. Why can't he just die?" he muttered under his breath, taking a deep breath to calm his frustration.

"Hey!" Jimin suddenly jumped in front of him, appearing out of nowhere. "You said if I asked for something, stubborn hyung would scold me and slap me, but yesterday he took me on an outing at night," he beamed.

"Maybe he was in a good mood, that's why," Jungkook said. "But be careful with him."

"You too," Jimin said with a smirk.

"Me?" Jungkook frowned.

"Yes. Tae hyung married Yoongi but easily forgets him and is ready to marry another girl... What's her name, I forget? And he has a relationship with his secretary too. He threw his girlfriend away once he met you. Be careful... He'll go after someone else if he finds someone better than you."

Jungkook stared at him, stunned.

"I'm telling the truth, Jungkook... So be careful. And he didn't even marry you, but he is married to Yoongi hyung... So you should be very careful," Jimin said as he walked away, leaving Jungkook standing there with a burning head.

Jungkook’s mind raced. He knew there was truth in Jimin’s words, but hearing them out loud made it more painful. Tae’s history with Yoongi was complex, and the thought of Tae’s wandering heart added a layer of insecurity he wasn’t prepared to handle.
