Their Three wives

①⑨

Time Apart

The days following the explosive revelation were quiet but filled with an overwhelming sense of uncertainty. Each of the wives—Saanvi, Sneha, and Sahana—had taken time away from their husbands to reflect on their relationships and what their future might hold. Though they each lived in different parts of Seoul, they found solace in the fact that they weren’t alone in their emotional turmoil. They had each other.

Saanvi, the youngest and the one who had been married the longest, sat in her small but cozy apartment, scrolling through old photos of her and her husbands. She felt conflicted—torn between the love she had always felt for them and the deep betrayal that now clouded everything. She had been so sure of them, of her place in their lives. But now she was questioning everything.

Sneha, ever practical and strong, had thrown herself into work, using her job as a way to distract herself from the pain. But no amount of distraction could keep her from thinking about how deeply she had been deceived. She had always been the glue that held things together, but now she felt like the ground had been ripped out from under her.

Sahana, the eldest and the most analytical, had retreated into her thoughts. She had been married the shortest time, but her connection to her husbands had been no less intense. Now, however, she found herself wondering if she had ever truly known them. How could they have kept something so monumental from her? From all of them?

The Husbands’ Struggle

While the wives took their time to process, the seven men they had married were struggling in their own way. BTS had always been a unit, navigating their lives and careers together, but this situation had thrown them into uncharted territory. They had never intended to hurt the women they loved, but the truth had been buried so deep that they hadn’t known how to bring it to the surface.

Namjoon, ever the leader, took it upon himself to keep the group together. "We need to give them space," he said one evening as they gathered at their shared apartment. "They’re going through something we can’t even begin to understand."

Jin, usually the playful one, was uncharacteristically quiet. "I can’t stop thinking about how we handled this so wrong. We never should’ve let it get this far."

Yoongi, typically reserved, nodded. "But now it’s about moving forward. We can’t change what’s already happened, but we can figure out how to make things right."

The others—Jungkook, Jimin, Hoseok, and Taehyung—agreed, but none of them had any concrete answers. They loved their wives. All of them. But the road ahead seemed impossibly long and uncertain.

Saanvi’s Breakthrough

After nearly a week of silence, Saanvi reached out to Sneha and Sahana. She had been thinking about what had happened, about the complexity of their situation, and realized that they needed to face this together, as a group. They were more than just three women hurt by the same men—they were connected in a way that no one else could understand.

"Can we meet?" she texted them both. "I think we need to talk."

Sneha and Sahana were quick to respond. They agreed to meet at a quiet café they all liked, a place where they could have privacy and space to discuss everything that had happened.

When they met, the atmosphere was tense but not hostile. They were all still hurt, but there was also a sense of shared understanding between them. Saanvi was the first to speak.

"I’ve been thinking a lot about this," she said, her voice calm but determined. "And I realized that we need to decide what we want—individually and together. We’ve been through something none of us could have expected, but we have to figure out if we can move forward."

Sneha nodded, her arms crossed over her chest. "I don’t know if I can trust them again," she admitted. "But I don’t know if I can just walk away, either."

Sahana, ever the logical one, looked at them both. "It’s not just about trust. It’s about choice. They took that away from us when they didn’t tell us the truth from the start. But now we have the choice. Do we want to stay in this, or do we walk away?"

The Wives’ Pact

The three women sat in silence for a few moments, each of them deep in thought. They had been brought together by circumstances beyond their control, but now they had the power to decide how they would move forward. Finally, Saanvi spoke again.

"I still love them," she said softly. "Even after everything, I can’t deny that. But I also don’t want to be in a relationship where I’m kept in the dark."

Sneha sighed. "I feel the same. I’m angry, but I can’t just turn off my feelings. I think... if we’re going to stay, we need to do it on our terms."

Sahana, though the most skeptical, nodded. "Agreed. If we decide to stay, we need to set boundaries and expectations. We’re not just going to forgive and forget. They need to prove that they’re willing to be honest and open with us from now on."

With that, the three wives made a pact. They would confront their husbands together, lay out their terms, and give them one chance to make things right. If the men were serious about their love and commitment, they would have to earn their trust back. It wouldn’t be easy, but it was the only way they could even consider moving forward.

The Confrontation

That evening, Saanvi, Sneha, and Sahana returned to the shared apartment where their husbands were staying. The atmosphere was thick with tension as the seven men stood nervously, unsure of what to expect. Namjoon, as usual, took the lead.

"We’re glad you came," he said carefully, his voice steady but filled with uncertainty.

Saanvi stepped forward. "We’ve been talking," she said. "And we’ve made a decision. We’re willing to try and move forward, but it’s going to be on our terms."

Sneha added, "We need honesty from now on. No more secrets. No more hiding things from us. If we’re going to make this work, you have to be open with us about everything."

Sahana, her expression firm, finished the thought. "And we’re going to need time. This isn’t going to be fixed overnight. You’re going to have to earn our trust back."

The husbands listened intently, nodding in agreement. They knew this was their chance to make things right, and they weren’t going to waste it.

"We understand," Namjoon said, his voice filled with sincerity. "And we’re willing to do whatever it takes to rebuild what we’ve broken."

A New Beginning

The night ended with a sense of cautious optimism. There were no hugs, no kisses, and no declarations of forgiveness. But there was a sense of understanding, a mutual agreement that they would try to rebuild their relationships, piece by piece.

As Saanvi, Sneha, and Sahana left the apartment that night, they knew that the road ahead would be long and difficult. But for the first time since the truth had come out, they felt like they had control over their own futures.

The seven husbands, too, felt a sense of relief, knowing that they had been given another chance—one they would not take for granted.
