Beautiful Trauma

25

Chaeyoung's POV

"Awww! What?" I covered my mouth as I try not to laugh. The pissed-off expression of my older brother greeting me.

"Try to be nice. He's still my husband," I whispered to him as I try to stop my brother from sending death glares over Jimin.

"So? I'm still your brother and he was a friend first before ending up as my stupid brother-in-law," he scoffed and my other hand ended on my forehead.

This is harder than I thought.

The moment my brother saw Jimin when we reach the ancestral house, he almost lunged himself and hit my husband. If not for Jungkook and Taehyung, who knows what the two will do with each other?

But then the two, along with Taehyung suddenly went missing just when me and my mom were talking. Where they went and what they talked about, I don't really know.

Namjoon and Hoseok oppa went home earlier too, muttering something about an errand.

My eyes snapped towards his direction, his all-goody smile directed towards my mother and younger brother.

My mother adores Jimin, treating him almost as her son. But of course, us being married makes him literally like her real son now.

I can still remember how my mother would always cook Jimin food whenever she visited. My mom would always ask for him.

"You still like that man?"

I turned my head towards my brother when I heard him speak, my lower lip tucked in between my teeth.

Do I?

No doubt about it.

But Jimin, he's like the wind. You feel him,  his warmth, his coldness, he gets passed to you like a breeze yet stays there like how he's supposed to.

There's no questioning of my feelings. Regardless of how much he hurt me, I knew I'll stay no matter what.

But this situation that we have, it's only temporary. Now, I only have less than a year to stay with him and after this, we'll be gone on each other's lives.

My cheeks blushed a little at the memory of what happened between us. Sure, he did sweet things after that. But he's a man. I can't simply hold on to something like that. I'm not even sure if it meant anything to him at all.

"Was it too obvious?" I asked my brother. Regardless of our indifferences, I still care about him. And I knew he was being like this because he cares for me too.

"Tsk, you are hitting me because of him. Waah, you like him more than your brother now? I am so disappointed Chaeyoung-ah," he pouted and I faced him and pinched his cheeks.

"When are you going to bring your girlfriend home? I mean it's time you introduce her to us," I teased and it's his turn to be flustered.

"Yah!" he scoffed. But before he can even say something else, my mother came forward with Jimin being hugged by my younger brother from behind, I had to stop my smile from showing.

"Chaeyoung-ah, have you been taking care of your husband? He seemed to be losing some weight. Why can't you just move here instead of staying in the other house?" my Mom stated and I groan internally.

I heard Jimin chuckle and I gave him a glare.

"Omma, Chaeyoung is taking care of me. Things are just a little hectic at work," he answered before giving me a wink and making me choke a little.
