Yoongi gave Minho an annoyed look after hearing the whole situation. Minho’s antics were sometimes just like a schoolchild’s—making such a big deal out of something as trivial as car parking.
"Alright, alright, fine! Drop it now and introduce me to your wife," Minho said excitedly.
Meanwhile,
in Tae’s room, .
Madhu sat in front of him, praising his look. "Tae, I never imagined you’d look so beautiful in traditional clothes!"
"What’s that supposed to mean? Am I not handsome? Everyone I see today is saying the same thing to me..." Tae grumbled.
"Well, it's because we aren't used to seeing you like this. Anyway, let that be—tell me, why didn't you tell me that Jimin is pregnant?"
"Oh man, honestly, so much was happening that it completely slipped my mind. You know everything that's been going on lately," Tae replied.
Tae gave the exact same explanation that Jimin had given Madhu. Hearing it again, she replied, "What exactly happened that everyone is saying the same thing?"
"The news of my engagement was so sudden... everyone spent a whole month just debating what to do. Then Yoongi Hyung decided that nothing would happen until my admissions were sorted. On top of that, Jimin’s health reports weren't great, so Hyung was very stressed," Tae explained.
"What happened to Jimin?"
"He had a fever in between, and you know how even a small cold can escalate and cause complications during pregnancy. That’s what happened with Jimin. There were some minor complications, but he’s fine now," Tae told her, filling her in on the details.
"I see. Well, anyway, Jungkook has arrived; I saw him. He’s wearing an olive-colored kurta today," Madhu shared. Hearing this, Tae felt a sudden urge to see him.
"Madhu! Please, go and get a photo of him for me," Tae pleaded.
"A photo? Tae, you’re going to be out there in a few minutes anyway, just see him live!"
"Still! I want to see him now. Jin dii has kept me sitting here forever. Just go and grab a quick pic."
"Fine, fine, I'll get one," Madhu said and slipped out of the room.
Outside,
Yoongi led Minho and Reet toward Jimin to introduce them. As Minho’s eyes fell on Jimin, he turned to Yoongi and said, "She—he is so beautiful!"
Yoongi smiled at the compliment. He stepped closer to Jimin and said, "Jimin! This is my school friend, Minho, and this is Dr. Reet."
Hearing the word 'friend' from Yoongi’s mouth, Jimin looked at Minho and reet, greeting them. He then turned to Yoongi and teased, "I didn't think you actually had friends?"
Minho burst out laughing. "I thought the same thing when he told me he had gotten married!"
"Well, his character is just like that," Jimin quipped. Minho laughed even harder at this, while Yoongi glared at him before looking at Jimin.
"Are you done...?" Yoongi asked dryly.
Jimin quieted down and started chatting with Minho. Seeing how well they were hitting it off, Yoongi remarked, "I always knew you two would get along—after all, your brains operate on the same level."
Both Jimin and Minho glared at Yoongi simultaneously, while reet couldn't help but laugh. She felt Yoongi was right; the two of them were babbling about nonsensical things with great enthusiasm.
After a bit of conversation, Yoongi handed Jimin something to eat, as he hadn't eaten in a while. As everyone was talking, all the lights suddenly went out. A single spotlight flickered on, focusing on Tae.
Under that light, Tae looked stunning. He slowly walked into the hall, reached the stage, and sat down beside Jungkook.
Jungkook leaned in and whispered, "You look very beautiful."
"You look good too. Actually, I asked Madhu to get a photo of you. She did, but it wasn't very clear—though you still looked great in it," Tae replied.
While talking to Jungkook, Tae scanned the room for Jimin. He eventually spotted him sitting on a chair to the side with Yoongi. Tae wanted to call Jimin over, but seeing Yoongi’s protective stance, he decided against it.
"Jimin! I always used to think that if Yoongi's kid turned out like him, it would be a disaster... but after meeting you, I’m relaxed," Minho joked. Jimin laughed and replied, "That’s never going to happen!"
"Yeah, I believe that now," Minho said.
Reet, who had been quietly observing everyone, noticed Minho looking at her. "What are you looking at?"
"A lot of people are looking our way; they probably want to talk," she noted.
"Of course they want to talk... the President of such a massive industry is standing here, they’d obviously want to network," Minho replied.
"Young girls too...?" Reet asked pointedly.
Minho went quiet, as everyone knew why the young girls were staring in their direction. Hearing reet, Jimin added, "You’re seeing this now, but I’ve been watching it for a while.
They’re all looking as if we’ve stolen something from them."
"Don't you know what you've stolen? Just look at the husband sitting next to you," Minho told Jimin with a wink.
While they were chatting, Yoongi took Jimin up to the stage to meet Tae.
"Wow! Tae-Tae, you look so beautiful today!"
"It’s my big day, of course I have to look beautiful..." Tae said cheekily.
Jimin burst out laughing and then congratulated Jungkook as well. After clicking a few photos with them, Yoongi brought Jimin back down and settled him into a comfortable chair.
Many girls had been wanting to talk to Yoongi all evening, but none of them had the courage. The memory of what happened at lia’s party was still fresh in everyone's minds—how Yoongi had destroyed her family's status overnight.
They stayed away out of fear, but they couldn't hide their jealousy toward Jimin. One girl standing nearby whispered to her friend, "This guy with Mr. Min... he doesn't look like anything special, and he’s gained so much weight. He doesn't deserve someone like Min Yoongi ."
"Keep your voice down," her friend whispered back urgently. "This is the same person lia tried to lay a hand on, and by the next morning, her world was gone. If Mr. Min hears you, I’m afraid the same thing will happen to you."
Everyone knew Jimin was the partner Yoongi loved deeply, yet many still held onto a tiny hope that he might look their way just once.
But Yoongi was oblivious to them all, focused entirely on keeping Jimin in his seat, as Jimin kept trying to stand up and move around in his excitement.
Minho, watching his friend care for Jimin like one would be a precious child, felt truly happy for him.
Minho walked over to Yoongi and said, "I don't think you'll have any trouble raising the baby... after all, you’ve been practicing on Jimin this whole time."
"You're right. Jimin is no less than a child himself," Yoongi said, looking at Jimin fondly.
"But he's wonderful. I'm really happy for you," Minho added.
A small smile played on Yoongi’s face before he shifted the conversation toward some business matters. Jimin didn't hear their conversation because he was busy talking to Jin, who had come over to sit with him.
