"Is this like a celebratory dinner?" Jin asked Namjoon when his cousin welcomed him in their reserved table in the restaurant.

"Well, you can say that. I mean, we did well, didn't we?" Namjoon said as he pulled a chair for Jin to sit on.

"Thank you. And yes, we have things to celebrate. Mingyu is finally resigning as the CEO. Taking with him whatever shares he has which I am sure he won't survive with. He cannot fight against me." Jin said proudly as he opened the menu for him to order.

Namjoon smiled happily seeing his cousin's sassiness back. "I miss this sassy side of you."

Jin looked at him. "Don't look at me as if I lost my shine. I am always as bright as a diamond. That Mingyu just lost it." He said. "Imagine taking a whore rather than me. That was so stupid of him."

"I don't think you ever lost your shine with Mingyu. I am almost certain you lost your shine just few weeks ago when you came back from Busan." Namjoon said as he held Jin's hand.

"Oh, that." Jin said sadly, remembering Jungkook and Yoongi again. He removed his hand from Namjoon's hold and tried to cheer up. "There's no sense making things sad today, Namjoon-ah." He said but he was not able to control his tears that fell down on his cheeks.

Namjoon bit his lip as he sadly looked at his cousin who was wiping his tears slowly with the tissue.

"Sorry, dust got in my eyes." Jin said as he closed his eyes while wiping his tears.

"Jinnie, why are you crying."

"Now, I'm even imagining---" his eyes widened when he opened them. He thought he was imagining hearing Yoongi's voice but as soon as he opened his eyes, the little man is standing on his side. He turned and looked at him to really see him face to face. "Y-Yoongi? Joonie, are you also seeing a little man in front of me right now?" He said, not even trusting his own eyes. Why would Yoongi actually be here?

Namjoon smiled at him and instead of answering he introduced himself to the boy. "You are getting taller, Yoongi-ah. Do you still remember me? I am Uncle Namjoon. I am Jimin's husband." Namjoon said and Yoongi turned to him with a smile.

"Namjoon-ah, I am not dreaming? You're not playing with me, right? There's really a little boy?" Jin asked again.

Namjoon just laughed at him.

"Jinnie, I am here. Why are you crying? Are you crying because you missed me, too? I also cry every night because I miss you." Yoongi said.

Jin was not able to contain his happiness upon seeing and hearing the boy. He suddenly hugged him tight and cried while hugging the boy.

"Jinnie, you're also making me cry." Yoongi said and he suddenly cried while also hugging Jin tightly.

They stayed like that until someone cleared his throat beside them.

"Can we join the fun?" Jin looked at the source of voice and saw Jimin with another man.

Of course, Yoongi can't go without this man.

"J-Jungkook..." he said. Jungkook was too ashamed to even look at Jin's eyes because of the pain he caused the man for the past few weeks. He did not know what to say or do that moment.

Jin let Yoongi go temporarily, and Jimin made Yoongi sit on the other side of the table while he let Jungkook and Jin somehow look at each other more as Jin walked towards him, hopefully not to eat each other since they're still in a public place and Kim Seokjin, this man just got his divorce.

"You're really here?" Jin asked as he held Jungkook's right cheek.

Jungkook looked at him and nodded but still biting his lips because of nervousness.

"Did you miss me?" Jin asked with tears in his eyes but with a smile forming again.

Jungkook smiled and nodded at him. "So much." He said as he moved closer and held Jin by his waist.

Before they can even come closer to each other, Jimin suddenly cleared his throat rather loudly. Jin and Jungkook stopped and looked at him.

Jimin, with wide eyes, signaled that they are in a public place and Jin looked around, immediately blushing due to the thought of them almost doing something in the restaurant.

"Let's eat real food, please." Jimin said while Namjoon kept Yoongi's head on him with his both hands, making sure that the boy won't see what Jin and Jungkook was about to do.

"I'll order food for you and Yoongi." Jin said as he pulled Jungkook to sit. He sat beside Yoongi, while Jungkook sat beside him. He did not care, he wants to be beside Yoongi, too. It's been a long time that he did not see the boy and he miss him so bad.

He ordered food for them by asking which meat they would want to have. He did not want it to be awkward for Jungkook so he did not let him order by himself. He made sure that the man won't be thinking that he is not right for the place. Only then did he notice what Jungkook was wearing.

He is wearing a plain black dress shirt, partnered by a black skinny jeans, very different from what he usually wears in the farm and when he goes to the bar.

He then whispered to Jungkook, "Did you dress up for me?" He asked.

Jungkook smiled and looked at him. "Did you like it?"

"I do, but I like you more naked. I can use those abs for later---"

"Oh my god! Not in front of my salad!" Jimin exclaimed. "I swear, I need to wash my eyes with Hobi's water later. You guys are poisoning my innocent mind."

Jin rolled his eyes at him. "None of you is actually innocent. I can even tell how many times I heard you moan Joonie's name when we were supposed to be on vacation. That's why I hate third-wheeling." Jin said.

"Jin, there's actually a boy beside you in case you forgot. Words please!" Jimin said as he got his eyes so big at Jin's words.

"Yoongi-chi is the only person innocent and cute here. Right, baby?" Jin said and Yoongi just nodded at him and then smiled cutely.

"You are so cute. Will you be going home with Jinnie tonight?" He asked the boy.

"Actually, we planned on checking in to the hotel Jimin showed earlier." Jungkook said.

"W-what? What hotel? Scrap that! You will be staying in my house." Jin said. "I won't let my baby stay in any hotel without me." Jin said as he looked at Jungkook then at Yoongi. "You want to stay in my house, baby?" He asked Yoongi.

Yoongi nodded and Jungkook knows he lost.

As much as possible, he did not want to be a nuisance to Jin but as soon as their dinner was over, Yoongi just kept on clinging on to Jin. He was surprised when a bentley flying spur car stopped in front of them. The man driving it went down from the car and opened the door for Seokjin.

Jungkook was just looking at the car and he thought that it was too clean for him to ride. He feels like if he'll ride it, the car might get dirty.

"I can hear your thoughts." Jin said. "Please get inside the car or I will walk with you back to my home. You choose." Jin said.

Of course, Jungkook did not have a choice, in reality. He cannot let Jin walk. He does not even know how far the house is from the restaurant. He rode the car gently, feeling every fiber of it's seat.

Yoongi just kept on saying "wow" as they rode the car and have seen the whole interior of the car. This is actually very much different to the car that Jin used in Busan but both looks very unique and expensive.

Jungkook thought about himself again but even before he starts thinking about it, Jin held his hand.

"When Yoongi falls asleep, can we talk for a while?" He asked Jungkook.

Jungkook looked at him like a kid lost in Seoul but nodded his head at Jin.

"Don't push me away again, hm?" Jin asked.

"I won't ever." Jungkook said and smiled which made Jin smile as well with pure happiness seeing Jungkook and Yoongi with him again.
