Arranged Marriage 2 || Kim Taehyung

8

Yet another day of being in the presence of Mahi, great. you thought to yourself.

The entire time she kept giving you glares, like she knew something.

When you would catch her staring her attention would avert back to Professor Jeon like nothing happened. The entire time as you all walked around Paris you felt really uncomfortable seeing Professor Jeon, you literally just had sex with her son and now you were struggling to walk.

You didn't want her to come near you or to say anything to you afraid that you might freeze up and say something stupid.

"Hey Mina can I talk to you for a second?" you felt your entire body tense up as you turned around to see a smiling Professor Jeon looking straight at you.

She led you away from the group making sure no one else would be able to hear your conversation and that only made you scared.

"Listen Pro-" your words were caught off by a warm embrace. She just held you for what felt like an hour.

"First of all, I want to thank you. Jungkook has been in France for almost a decade and I've never seen him happier in my life. You really are something else, thank you."

You could feel yourself move all on its own from a worried to shocked to confused face. You were snapped out of your expression by laughing. She seemed pretty amused by what she had just witnessed.

"What do you mean, you haven't seen him happy?? And what do I have to do with it." by this point a million thoughts were flooding your brain.

Did Jungkook tell her? "What does she think exactly happened?" "Why is she so glad about it?"

"Jungkook had a hard past. His Father wasn't the best role model, and I wasn't either. He lived with his Grandma for a while but when she got sick and passed away, he went into a depressive state. He used art to cope with that, at first it was just drawing faces but because me and his Father barely paid attention to him he started going out and asking women to strip so he could draw them. I guess you can say he became a bit of a playboy." she was fidgeting with her hands it must've been hard to tell you that.

"What do you mean playboy?"

"How exactly do you think he just got women to strip naked and lay down for 2-3 hours? He had to give them something in return."

You felt the redness come to your cheeks as you remembered something Jungkook said last night "I have lots of experience with different types of girls, but you're a new one."

"One night something happened, something terrible happened and Jungkook packed his bags and left us. Me and his Father got a divorce and I went to art school, I wanted to see what Jungkook was so passionate about, then somehow I became a professor."

"That's wonderful, congratulations." you smiled.

"Thank you. But I want you to know he's been through hell, then hell, then hell again. Yet he still manages to hide all of it with that smile, but lately he hasn't been hiding anything it's been genuine. And I have you to thank for that." her eyes started to form tears at its corners as you two pulled in for an embrace once again.

"I'll do my best for him, I promise."
