The Story Of Us ✔️

Chapter 55

"So, both of you spent the whole night in the woods?" Hana asked in surprise. "Do you think your mom would allow that? She was like 'oppas will find out, let's go back home, please kookie', so we headed back at around 3 am in the night. But we had such a great time" Jungkook replied while remembering all the good memories.

"I think you fully know what would happen if my brothers found out that we were in the woods, only me and you. They would have dug a 6 ft. hole in the ground and buried you alive, in the forest itself" Areum stated with annoyance.

Hearing that, Jungkook gulped "Even though your brothers left the mafia, you still have a lot of qualities left in you, even when you didn't even do any kind of mafia work" he mumbled to himself.

"What did you say?" Areum questioned as she wasn't able to hear whatever he said. "Nothing, you are a very sweet wife" he said with a fake sweet smile making the kids laugh. "Stupid bunny" Areum mumbled.

"So, I want to know what happened when samchons found out about you" Hana asked them.

"Nothing much, they denied at first but accepted when Taehyungie hyung talked with them" Jungkook replied to them.

"Oh come one, there must be more to it. By now, I fully understood about their mafia side. Tell us the truth" Iseul asked them.

"Yes samchon, I bet appa and the other samchons would have made a big drama" Seojoon commented with a light chuckle.

"Yes appa, tell us, we wanna know" this time it was Hana who was pestering Jungkook for answers.

Areum noticed that Jungkook was getting angry, so she decided to interrupt "Hey kids, let it be. We can talk about it later. Why don't you all go and watch a movie or something. Me and Kook will also join you" she said with a small smile.

Hana started to speak "Please Eomma, tell us, I pr-"

"Shut up all of you. You don't have to know anything" Jungkook shouted a little and left from there.

The kids flinched a little and their faces turned into a sad and pouty ones. "Sorry, we didn't mean to make him angry" Chaeyoung apologised. "Don't worry, he will be fine" Areum tried to cheer them up.

"Why can't you tell us? What actually happened?" Jaehyun piped up. Chaeyoung smacked his head and muttered a shut up to him.

"It's very....complicated" Areum replied with a low voice "and we don't want you guys to think bad of them" she continued in the same voice.

"No, we promise. We won't think anything bad of them. Whatever happened has happened, it's all in the past. They totally changed now, according to you. So it would be totally fine for us to know" Iseul assured her and looked at her cousins back up.

"Yes yes, we assure you that we won't think anything bad or wrong" Seojoon said making the other nod their heads.

Areum sighed understanding that there is no way out of this. "Fine listen, you won't stop pestering about this, right?" she said making the kids give a cheeky smile.

"It was just the next day of my birthday...

Flashback continues:
After celebrating Areum's birthday, both of them returned back to the mansion. They got out of the car and stood silently looking at each other.

Areum hugged him gently, "I had a great time today. Thank you so much for everything" she said with a smile. "Anything for my love" Jungkook replied and hugged her tighter.
