Fake, My Soul

Chapter 28: The Daegu Kims

Taehyung walked into the living room as he bowed a greeting at everyone before pulling Jimin into a hug and kissing the side of his head, "Hello, I'm here earlier than expected," he said.

Jimin just hugged him back.

"Taehyung, hello," Mrs. Park said as she got up and gave him a hug.

"Can I steal Jimin now?" he asked her.

"You could, OR, you can stay and have dinner with us, catch up, Jimin said that you've been wanting to,"

"I have,"

"Busy in the office?"

"I, ah, so he did tell you?"

"Yes, he did,"

"Yes, I'm a bit busy looking over a project or two, plus a new contingency plan, so, stress, stress, stress,"

"We can imagine, so come and rest with us, my sister was just leaving,"

Mrs. Choi was aghast at that, "What?" she started, "You're kicking me out?"

"Yes," Mrs. Park said simply, "You presented what you needed and now you're done, so, I'll see you later,"

"But I'm family,"

"And?"

"I'm family, you should feed me,"

"Will you behave and treat my son and his boyfriend well?"

"If I must,"

Mrs. Park raised an eyebrow at that, "Really?"

"Yes, don't you trust me?"

"What do you think?"

"Whatever,"

"Right, OK everyone, into the dining room, and you two, no kissing,"

"But, but, but," Taehyung teased before Mrs. Park shot him a look, "I will behave, don't take my Jiminie,"

Mrs. Park laughed at him as she watched Taehyung childishly grab at Jimin's waist and pull him into a tight back hug.

"I have a clingy boyfriend," Jimin just beamed.

"Yeah," Taehyung said back, "Oh, but, um, Mrs. Park, my brothers are with me, we were going to have a catch up dinner, can we do a rain-check for today?"

"Bring them in and have dinner with us,"

"Really?"

"Yes, I'd love to meet your brothers,"

"Oooo!" Taehyung said happily as he pecked Jimin's cheek and then bolted out the door to go get Namjoon and Jin.

"He loves his brothers, years of reconnecting to do," was all Jimin said as Taehyung was heard parking his car and footsteps were eventually heard coming back to the living room.

"Park family and uh, Mrs. Choi, these are my big brothers, Kim Namjoon and Kim Seokjin," Taehyung said as Jin and Namjoon entered the room and bowed a 'hello'.

"Hello," Namjoon started, "I'm Kim Namjoon, I'm the middle brother,"

"I'm Kim Seokjin, I'm the oldest," Jin said.

"And you know me, I'm Kim Taehyung," Taehyung started.

"My adorable baby!" Jin said as he pulled Taehyung into a tight hug and kissed his head.

"AH! HYUNG!"

"Oh, don't act like you don't like my cuddles and kisses,"

"I, yeah,"
