After taking a quick bath and changing the dress both Jin and Jungkook came downstairs. They didn't said a word after that. Jin just silently walked without giving any glance to Jungkook.

Coming down Jin ran to his mother in law seeing her cleaning the mess they created earlier. Jungkook looked at him before going to the couch. He felt like Jin was awkward with him.

"Mom what are you doing? Let me do it." Jin said but Mrs Jeon was already done. "No problem my son." Mrs Jeon caressed his hair. "Let's go and sit." They also sat on the couch. Jin sat with Mrs Jeon though there was empty spot next to Jungkook.

"So you got the project?" Mr Jeon asked. "Uh Yes dad." Jungkook answered. "See. The joint project idea was a good one. Well done Jin." Mr Jeon praised Jin. Jin nodded his head. " Thank you so much Dad." Jungkook just narrowed his eyes. Whatever it was he was happy it went good.

Then Mrs Jeon started to spoke. "Actually hearing this news I planned to give you a surprise visit. But instead we got the surprise welcome." She joked. Jin was quick to apologize. "Sorry mom you had to see that."

Mr and Mrs Jeon laughed. " Well having playtime with your hubby is not bad Jinnie. After all he's all yours. " Mrs Jeon teased him. Jin lowered his gaze. The 'hubby' was out of nowhere. No. Not again.

Surprisingly Jungkook wasn't feeling odd about that. In fact he took smiled seeing the faded pink on Jin's cheeks. He calmly said, " Thanks Mom, Dad. We're really tired to go to you. It's better that you came here."

"Actually we came here with another thought. As you got the project we were thinking about throwing a party. Before you both start to work on this project it'll also be refreshment. So what do think ?" Mr Jeon said.

Jin and Jungkook both looked at each other. Jungkook gave a slight smile. Jin then looked at his father in law. " We're okay with it. We'll arrange it however you want it, Dad." Mr and Mrs Jeon got relief hearing the answer.

" Correction. Not 'we' but I will arrange the party. You know what I was a event manager before." Mrs Jeon said flipping her hair dramatically. Mr Jeon shook his head smiling. His wife is one of a kind.

'' Really mom? That's nice. Why did you quit then ?" Jin said with his round eyes. He was surprised to hear about his mother in law.

Mrs Jeon smiled. "I was happy doing it. But Kookie started to disturb me." Mrs Jeon answered. Jin stared at her before she said "..In my womb." He smiled hearing that. His mother in law is such a loving and interesting person.

They kept going on with their chattering. The living room filled with occasional laughter.

.....

Mr and Mrs Jeon was still with Jin and Jungkook after the launch. Not that they had minded. They were happy to have them around. Specially after that shared moment of closeness. Jungkook was noticing how Jin was still feeling awkward around him.

In the afternoon, Jin was sitting with Mrs Jeon at the backyard. Talking about anything to everything.

Mrs Jeon took breath before saying "Jin, I know my Kookie isn't the best guy. But he isn't the bad. I agree he have many flaws but I'm happy that you out looked those and accepted him. I don't know how deep is the the love between you two but for me you're the best couple."

Jin lowered his gaze. He was listening her attentively. He felt wrong lying to his in laws. They think he and Jungkook is a perfect couple but no that's their actual relationship.

"How is your married life going?" Mrs Jeon asked. Jin wasn't really prepared to answer that. What should he tell ? That they were going to divorce after one year.
