New Horizons

part 22

Please ignore the mistakes.

It's Friday, means the last working day before weekend. Today jungkook leaves his office earlier than other days. He has a plan to meet with his wife at a mall. He reaches to the place at the exact time he finds taehyung waiting in front of the mall and looking around impatiently. He parks his car and walks toward his wife.

''are you waiting for long?'' jungkook asks.

''I called you when I came here. It has been 10 minutes. Why did you want to meet here?'' taehyung asks.

''I want to buy something for your- I mean for my mother in law. I'm going there for the first time.'' Jungkook says as they walk inside the huge mall.

Taehyung smiles. He appreciates jungkook's thought. The man himself said why they don't visit taehyung's home. And of course he immediately agreed. He never asked jungkook to visit his mother. He wanted to observe if jungkook brings the topic or not. And jungkook randomly one day told taehyung he wanted to visit his mother in law. And now he himself wants to buy something for his mother.

''you don't need to. Mother usually doesn't need anything.'' Taehyung speaks.

''everyone has some needs. I'm thinking to buy some clothes for her. And you should chose it because I don't know what she likes.''

''she would be happy if you bring her fresh fish. She loves fresh foods. That's why we have a big vegetable garden at our home.''

''then we can get the fish before we go there tomorrow. For now let's get some clothes for her.

Taehyung chooses two pairs of clothes that suits his mother. He still hesitates to take money from jungkook so he tries to spend has less as possible despite jungkook asking him to choose the best ones again and again. And when taehyung is done picking clothes for his mother, jungkook also chooses some dresses for his wife. Honestly taehyung's mind was itching to go to the girl's section and get whatever he likes. His mind was colorless for ages. But now he feels happy- genuinely happy. So he really wants to go back to his previous self when he used to have tons of girl's dress. But he can't do that now. He doesn't know how jungkook will react.

Next day,

Seojin and minho leave for their mother after breakfast like every weekend. They don't know where their father is going as surely it will create another chaos. So jungkook avoided telling them and taehyung also didn't pressure him knowing the obvious reason.

Bidding goodbye from the elder jeons jungkook and taehyung leave by jungkook's car. Taehyung's house is pretty far from here. And they are going to buy fresh fish so jungkook drives toward the market. It's weekend so the sellers are here early to sale fish.

The first thing jungkook does is scrunching his nose because of the weird smell. He hasn't been to a fish market for years and he thinks he forgot the fish names. The market is crowded so he holds his wife's hand. what if they can't find each other in the crowd?

''what kind of fish mother in law likes? Salmon? Tuna? Prawn?'' jungkook asks while looking thoroughly some shops

''my mother likes small fishes. Let me see.'' Taehyung says and starts looking for the desirable fish. Looking for 20 minutes taehyung gets some prawn, small mixed fish and some other local fish.

After that they again start their journey. They reach to taehyung's house around 11 am. It's first time jungkook is coming here so he looks around curiously. Taehyung shows him the parking area. So after parking the car both of them come out. The house is small but cozy looking 2 storey house surrounded with a big vegetable garden like taehyung mentioned.
