Untold Truth [KTH FF]

"Hope"

The rain had stopped, allowing a cool breeze to soothe the air around them. They reached a quiet, secluded park, isolated from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Taehyung let go of y/n's wrist and gestured towards a nearby bench, his gaze fixed on her.

Tae- Sit down.

Y/n looked down and took a seat on the bench, the weight of her emotions were mirrored in her expression.

Taehyung sat beside her, leaving a good space between them while jungkook stood in front of them crossing his arms, giving them some privacy while still observing from a respectful distance

Tae- what's wrong? (He asked)

Taehyung pov

Y/n remained silent for a moment, her emotions swirling inside her. After a while, she lifted her gaze to meet mine, the pain and anguish in her eyes evident. It was clear that something was bothering her, something she had been struggling with for a long time.

Y/n- I..I don't know where to begin. (said with a trembling voice)

Taehyung's expression softened after hearing this, his voice gentle and understanding. He shifted closer to her on the bench, his presence a silent reassurance.

Tae- Take your time, Y/n. I'm here to listen. (Hearing this y/n looked up)

Tae- is everything ok, y/n? I mean, your parents…are they alright?

Y/n's eyes flickered with a mixture of hurt and helplessness. She swallowed hard, grappling with a maelstrom of emotions inside her. With a shaky voice, she managed to speak, barely above a whisper.

Y/n- step parents (she corrected him)

Taehyung and Jungkook glanced at each other confusedly

Tae- huh? Step parents? What about your real parents?

Y/n- My parents died in an accident when I was little. Since then a friend of my father's has adopted me. He was my father's closest friend…and they were so nice…but I don't know what happened to them. They suddenly changed and started abusing me.

(Taehyung and Jungkook looked at each other's eyes in shock)

Taehyung's heart clenched at her revelation. Abuse at the hands of her adopted parents was an unfathomable cruelty to endure. He reached out, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder.

Tae- is this why you were about to take your life?

(Y/n looked down)

Jungkook stepped forward who was quietly listening to them and asked with his concerned face

Jk- y/n, how long have you been enduring this?

Y/n took a deep breath. She was struggling to keep her feelings under control.

Y/n- It's...it's been years. I don't even remember how many. It just got worse with time.

Taehyung's grip on her shoulder tightened, a silent way of silently conveying that he was there, ready to listen to everything.

tae- why didn't you file a complaint about them to the police?

y/n- then where would I live? I have nowhere to stay.

Hearing this jungkook sighed deeply and said

Jk- so you can't escape from there?

(Y/n nodded and said)

Y/n- I know they abuse me but they are the ones who keep me alive with food and shelter. That's why I decided to take my life by myself.

Taehyung and Jungkook exchanged a glance, their expressions reflecting a mixture of sympathy and determination. Taehyung's grip on her shoulder became firmer, his eyes locked onto hers, as if making a silent promise.

Tae- why didn't you talk to someone about this? Like m-me, for example.

Y/n's eyes widened, a mixture of surprise and vulnerability evident in her gaze. She hadn't expected to be put on the spot, to have her inner turmoil exposed.

Y/n- I...I couldn't burden you with my problems, Mr. Kim. You are my boss. I didn't want to cause you trouble.

Jk- then me? (Said suddenly)

Saying this, Jungkook glanced at Taehyung who sent a warning glare to him, silently communicating his disapproval. Jungkook got the signal and backed off after showing him an awkward smile,

Taehyung's attention returned to Y/n, his voice softer than before.

Tae- Y/n, if you had come to me or Jungkook, we could have helped you. You didn't have to go through this alone and also it's not the right time. But after when you will get married, you can enjoy the rest of your life

(you nodded while looking down)

Tae- so believe in yourself (he smiled, You nodded and wiped your tears)

Jk-  he's right, y/n. We are here for you. You don't have to face this all alone…Be patient for a few more days, everything will be fine.

Hearing them y/n took a deep breath, Taehyung's words and Jungkook's presence providing a sense of comfort and support she hadn't experienced in a long time. A flicker of hope began to ignite within her, and a hint of gratitude shone in her eyes.

Y/n- Thank you Mr.kim and Mr.jeon. I..I don't know how to thank you enough..

Tae- It's fine. Now go home and rest. But if anything happens at home... Here is my number.  give me a call

(taehyung gave his number to y/n and said again)

Tae- don't be always silent. Try to discuss your problem with me when we're at the office, ok? (She nodded silently)

Y/n- I will. Thank you, Mr. Kim. (Her voice was soft and filled with gratitude)
