"POSSESSION" II JJK X THV II 21+ TAEKOOK FF

15. Contract

Jungkook leaned against the kitchen counter, watching Taehyung tie the last box with meticulous care.

"You sure you've got everything?" he asked, his voice echoing slightly in the empty apartment.

Taehyung nodded, securing the knot tightly. "Yeah, I think that's it."

He looked around the now bare space, and sighed. "Hard to believe we're leaving this place."

They stood in the middle of the now empty apartment, the bare walls echoing the countless memories they'd made within them.

Just then, Jungkook's phone rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, he frowned.

"Hello?"

The landlord's voice came through, sounding uneasy.

"H-Hello? Sorry but I have to inform you that I've decided to cancel your rent agreement."

"What? Why?" Jungkook demanded, his voice rising in anger.

"I... I heard you work with the mafia. I can't rent to people like you," the landlord stammered.

"Who told you that?" Jungkook's frustration was palpable, but the landlord cut the call before he could say more.

Just before the line went dead, Jungkook heard him mumble, "Thank god that guy's father informed me in time, at least he's a decent person"

Jungkook's grip tightened on his phone until his knuckles turned white.

Realization dawned on him as he stood still, seething with anger, then hurled the phone across the room, where it shattered against the wall, startling Taehyung.

"What's wrong?" Taehyung asked, his expression shifting from concern to worry.

Jungkook took a deep breath, struggling to control his anger.

"The landlord cancelled our rent, cuz I work with the mafia" he said through gritted teeth. "And guess who told him? That so-called father of mine, that bastard!"

Taehyung's worry deepened. "But we've already signed out of this apartment. Where are we supposed to go now?"

Jungkook began pacing, cursing his father under his breath.

Taehyung stepped closer, placing a hand on his shoulder in an attempt to calm him down.

"How about finding some hotel for a place to stay until we can sort this out," Taehyung suggested gently.

Jungkook nodded, trying to rein in his anger. "You're right, we'll find a hotel to stay in for now. I'll start calling around."

Just as he pulled out his now-damaged phone to look up hotels, a knock sounded at the door.

Both of them exchanged puzzled glances before Jungkook went to open it. Standing there was someone they weren't expecting.

"Hyunsik? What are you doing here?" Jungkook asked, stepping aside to let him in.

Hyunsik entered with a faint smile on his face, taking in their troubled expressions.

"I think I have a solution to your problem.

"What? How did you know?" Taehyung asked.

Hyunsik shrugged. "Just a feeling. I had a hunch something like this might happen."

He pulled out his phone and made a quick call. After a brief conversation, he hung up and turned to them, his expression unreadable.

"Let's go."
