Today was a Sunday, Taehyung was walking on his own by the streets. He didn't wanted to be anywhere near anyone.

Jisoo also let him be alone for sometime. Sometimes all you need is some me-time.

he found a empty place. It was a abandoned park, there was a tunnel. He went inside and sat there.

He looks at his wallpaper, Mr and Mrs Kim's picture. "How do I repay you both?" he questions the phone screen. but he didn't knew someone was near him. he felt a presence, he quickly wipes his eyes and looks at the person.

"you're here?" he asks, he was surprised to see the person here. "I want to ask the same question. I thought this place was hidden from the world" Mrs Jeon jokes taking a seat beside him.

"Somethings never stays hidden" Taehyung replies looking back to the front.  YounJi looks at him with a confused expressions. "Why do you always gives me weird feelings? you're remarks are so mysterious to me is there any specific reason behind it?" she questions finally what she had in his mind.

"you want to know?" he asks in a low tone. "yes I think so" she replies causally.

"did you ever had another child before Jungkook?" his questions hault her in place, she didn't want to be here anymore.

"wh-y a-re you asking?" she sutters in fear. "Did you thought no one would know about it?" He again asks without answering her questions. "how do you know?" she asks, slowly her eyes were forming tears.

"How do I know? Destiny made me laugh at my life" He mocks his fate. How his well maintaining life turn into a ruckus.

"Can you just stop twisting your words! Just tell me what do you know?" She yells this time. She was known as a elegant lady, now she was a mess.

Taehyung kept quiet. Minutes were passing in silence. YounJi kept her patience, but panicking inside.

"Please tell me" she begs.

"Did you abandoned your child?" he directly asked. Her heartbeat stopped at that moment, it was a sensitive topic to her. This time Taehyung maintained eye contact waiting for response. She looks away when she was responding, "no..no why would I?"

Her replies were not confident at all. Taehyung sighs then let out a mocking chuckle. "Lies are made by us, but lies also ruin us" he was correct and it made her more nervous.

This time she went quiet. She doesn't want to reply. Who is he? How does he know this?

"I didn't abandoned" she suddenly spoke looking down. "I gave birth to a dead child" she replies. Her last sentence was breaking her heart into pieces.

Rather than showing her sympathy he again chuckles. "Dead? Do I look dead?" he says in a mocking tone.

She looks at him with shocked widened eyes. "What..do you m-ean?" she sutters. Her head was feeling heavy with the truth unfolding.

"I'm the dead child, i mean you consider dead" he spat it out with his broken heart. His emotions were loud in this silence. His words were almost like a loud announcement of truth to YounJi.

"So I was lied?" She questions herself. She wasn't crying, she was just blank. Taehyung's head was hung low. Tears just falling down, he was facing the reality he always dreamt of.

Again the silence engulfed the place. Both mother and son fell quiet.

"Why did you abandoned me? Was I unworthy to get your name?" He questions her. It was feeling like he was questioning her motherly.

"I was told my child died" she confessed. She didn't hoped for him to believe but it would burn herself if she didn't defend herself. She has to clarify that she didn't abandoned him.

"Who? Who said?" He asks looking at her with hopeless eyes. "My parents" as soon one tear falls down, her eyes just were flooding with tears.

"Why?" the only questions both mother and son asked. But to whom?

To her parents? Or to his fate? Or to the god himself?

Taehyung didn't came here to hurt her. No revenge was his focus. He just wanted to know why she left him.  He just wanted to see how they look like. Now he just came to know his mother didn't abandoned her.

Why did his grandparents lied to his mother? That was only question left. But right now he wants her to engulf him in a hug, saying "doesn't matter if you were told dead now that you here let me tell you mom loves you"

But she didn't said anything. She stayed like a statue in her place. He kept watching her, how her tears were falling. Taking out his handkerchief and he slowly wipes her tears but didn't utter any words.

"You should go" she said in her emotionless voice. "Don't ruin everything that has been set" she says and comes out of the tunnel they were sat.

Taehyung didn't understood what just happened. He couldn't process it.

The whole day passed he didn't came back home. Jisoo cooked dinner and kept waiting but he didn't came. Now she was worried. She didn't bug him whole day to give the me-time. But this is too much right now.

She picked her phone and dialled his number. It kept ringing but he wasn't picking up.

"God, this guy!" She runs out and the servants were scared to see. They thought what could be happening.

She starts driving here and there looking for him. He was just like a kid when he is upset. He would just hide somewhere away from everyone.

Just like mom's finds where her child's be, she would find whenever he was.

This time she couldn't find him. Not knowing what to do, she pulls over the car in a sideways. She dialls his phone again and he didn't picked up. She puts her head on the steering wheel. Suddenly the horn came mistakenly. She quickly took her head off the steering wheel.

"Sorry" she apologised to the people around. She came out of the car and walks inside the park.

She was really tired. She sat on the big pipe she didn't knew Taehyung was right under that.

Taking out her phone she stares at her wallpaper, *Taehyung has picked Dalgom in his arms*

"Tae stop torturing me! I'm not so strong, I feel weak too.. I'm just a girl who loves you" she says in a tiring sad voice. Meanwhile Taehyung could hear it all. He also doesn't like how he is been a bother to her. This is why he didn't wanted to bring her. he would just give her pain. this is why he didn't wanted to be with her, he would just be a bad luck to her.

"Stop hiding from me, stop thinking that you are some bother to me, you're the reason I wake up and get ready to face anything" she mutters. A tear escape from her eyes, falls on the screen.

"I'm sorry" Jisoo hears the voice she was eagerly waiting for.
