The dining table sits in the centre of a dining hall, bathed in the soft, muted light of a cloudy morning streaming through a half-drawn curtain. The family members are gathered around, each occupied by their own thoughts, yet sharing the same heavy silence.

Mr Jeon dressed in his casual clothes, sitting on the head chair reading the morning newspaper while sipping on his coffee occasionally. A commanding aura radiates from him. Mrs Jeon dressed in a silk robe with intrcate embroidery, carefully spreads butter on toast, her movements soft yet composed. Her gaze occasionally wandered towards her son and then at her husband, feeling a heavy tension brewing between them.

Jungkook was sitting at his usual seat on the right side of the table. He's cutting the bacon with a fork and knife with ease onto small pieces and then taking the fork to his mouth to eat it. He's not looking up from his plate, just focused on his breakfast, yet a determination laid in his eyes to let his father know his decision about the engagement. Soobin is sitting right beside his elder brother, having his breakfast not getting affected by the tension engulfing his surroundings.

The only sounds are the faint clink of utensils, the soft rustle of paper as a newspaper is turned, and the occasional creak of a chair shifting on the tiled floor. The air is thick with unspoken words, an invisible weight pressing down on everyone.

Jungkook suddenly stopped all his movements. His gaze still directed towards his plate, while his mind was thinking about the words he's going to talk to his parents. He set aside the culinary he was holding, and after cleaning his mouth with a napkin, he raised his head up and directed his gaze towards his dad.

"Dad." Jungkook called his father. His voice is soft yet determined.

Mr Jeon averted his gaze from the newspaper and gave his attention to his son. He hummed in response while setting aside the newspaper he was reading.

"I'm going to call of the engagement." There, Jungkook said the wirds without any hesitation. The words felt like stones in the silence.

Mr Jeon's face freezes, the cup halting mid-air from which he was going to sip the coffee. Slowly, he sets it down. His expressions, a mix of shock and disbelief.

"Do you know what you're saying?" Mr Jeon asked his voice low yet stern.

"I'm aware of my words, dad....
His eyes met his father's eyes.

And this is what I want. I didn't say anything the past two days, but now I'll not sit back silent and let you do what you want. This is my life, and only I've the right to decide what to do with it." Jungkook said his voice firm and confident while looking straight in his father's eyes without batting an eyelash.

Mr Jeon shakes his head, his jaw tightening in anger. Mrs Jeon is witnessing the scene with worried eyes scared that a big fight might happen between father and son while Soobin looks at the scene with curious eyes waiting for the whole scene to unfold before him.

"You're not doing such a thing. I won't allow you to do it." Mr Jeon gritted out his voice low and commanding, leaving no room for argument, but Jungkook is not here to back down. He looked at his father straight in the eyes. His composure is confident yet defiant.

"Dad, it is my final decision, and I'm going to act upon it. I'm not backing down from my decision. I'm not going to marry that, Kim." Jungkook voiced out his last words with finality not cowering away under the dark and intense gaze of his father. He stood up from his seat, and after grabbing his car keys and wallet, he made his way towards the main door, but his father's voice stopped him in his tracks. He stopped after listening to his father's voice but didn't look back at him.
