Tiny Taehyung is standing alone on the playground, his big, innocent eyes welling up with tears as two older kids tease him, pulling on his sleeve and laughing at his tiny, pudgy hands holding his favorite stuffed bunny.
"Give it back!" Taehyung's voice is barely a whisper, his face red as he tries to pull his bunny back from one of the boys.
Suddenly, a small but fierce voice cuts through the playground noise. "Hey! Leave him alone!"
Jungkook charges forward, all five years of him radiating a determination much larger than his tiny frame. He plants himself in front of Taehyung, arms crossed, his face scrunched up in a serious scowl as he glares at the older kids.
"Don't you dare mess with TaeTae!" he says, his voice high-pitched but fierce, like he's channeling all his bravery just to stand up for his friend. "If you're mean to him, you'll have to deal with me!"
The older kids pause, surprised by Jungkook's confidence, and after a moment, they roll their eyes and wander off, muttering.
Once they're gone, Jungkook turns to Taehyung, his expression softening immediately. "Are you okay, Tae?"
Taehyung, still sniffling, nods shyly and hugs his bunny close. Jungkook smiles proudly and reaches out to pat Taehyung's head with a chubby little hand, as if to reassure him.
"Don't worry, I'll always protect you," Jungkook promises, his eyes shining with innocence and loyalty.
"Always."
Taehyung's teary face brightens up as he clutches Jungkook's hand, feeling safe and happy. To him, Jungkook is his hero, his small but fearless protector.

Little Taehyung carefully sets down his lunchbox on the bench beside Jungkook, his bright eyes fixated on his friend, who's sulking. Jungkook's sandwich was forgotten on the kitchen counter that morning, leaving him without lunch. Taehyung pushes his own lunchbox closer, nudging Jungkook to look up.
"Here, you can have mine!" Taehyung says with a grin, opening the box to reveal his favorite snacks.
Jungkook shakes his head, frowning. "But it's your favorite... Won't you be hungry?"
Taehyung's little face scrunches up in determination. "I'm okay! You need it more than me," he insists, pushing the box toward Jungkook with both hands. His gaze is full of quiet affection, already forming a pattern of small sacrifices in his mind, as if nothing matters more than seeing Jungkook smile again.
