part 40

"JUNGKOOK, WILL YOU EAT RICE AND SMASHED EGGPLANTS?" taehyung asks loudly standing outside of the bathroom. His husband is inside the bathroom bathing and taehyung is asking about the breakfast food.

"OKAY." jungkook answers. Personally he doesn’t like eggplant but he doesn’t say anything either. Let's just see what does taehyung cooks actually.

Taehyung smiles happily and walks out of the room. He is deal craving for spiced smashed eggplant and rice. So he thinks it will be better if jungkook accompanies him in eating the same food. He used to do this in his previous pregnancies too and his ex used to be agree with whatever taehyung says without any protest.

Tae steps inside the kitchen and spots a maid is already cooking. He wants to make his own food so he starts his own work.

He sits on the dining chair with well prepared hot food and Again calls his husband loudly. He doesn’t want to climb stares Again and Again as it can be risky. So for now his loud  voice will do the work.

Jungkook comes downstairs being fully ready for the office. He greets his parents and sits beside taehyung. He sees a over happy taehyung serving him a plate full of white rice and another thing which jungkook can't recognize. He doesn’t remember if he has seen this thing ever. He can only see some seeds of eggplants so he assumes It's the smashed eggplant taehyung was talking about.

"I didn’t put salt in yours. Don't worry." taehyung speaks while shoving a handful of rice inside his mouth.

Jungkook nods his head slightly and takes a small amount if eggplant in his mouth. Then he stares at taehyung not knowing what to do. But seeing taehyung eating big bites jungkook decides to follow his wife and takes a small bite of rice and eggplant.

His face turns into something unrecognizable by the taste but he doesn’t say anything. He takes more 3-4 bites and then can't hold him back from speaking.

"Taehyung?" he calls.

Taehyung looks at him.

"Can i taste yours?" he asks.

"Why are you asking? " saying taehyung moves his plate toward jungkook. And the man takes a small bite of eggplant from taehyung's plate.

Luckily it tastes much better than his ones. Taehyung didn’t use salt. So It's tastes really bad with only chilli, onions and mustard oil. His tongue has adjusted to no salt food but still he can't tolerate the alien like taste of that food. But taehyung used salt in his one, so it tastes better.

Without speaking jungkook puts some salt on his rice.

"What are you doing?" his mother asks with frown.

"It tastes bad without salt." jungkook speaks taking a bite.

After having breakfast when jungkook leaves for his office, taehyung walks with him till the car holding his hand tightly- in case he falls.

"Jungkook?" taehyung calls.

"Yeah?"

"Bring me a packet of milk powder." taehyung says.

"Why? There's lots of milk in the fridge."

Taehyung shakes his head., "you Don't understand. Yesterday i saw body powder and you can't Imagine how hard it was for me to control myself from eating body powder."

"What?" jungkook chuckles loudly. "You wanted to eat body powder?"

"You Won't understand pregnancy cravings." taehyung says.

"What else do you want to eat? Tell me I'll bring them.

" I'll text you after i make a list of foods i need." taehyung says.
