the very worst of us / the best of us

Chapter 19

Junghyung stopped in his track when he saw his uncle Yoongi getting off his car.

"Yoongi!" He called. He didn't even care that there were other people watching and that he called their school psychologist by his name.

He hasn't seen his uncle for months for fuck sake.

Yoongi turned around and gave him a smile.

"Woah! You got a new car?" Junghyung asked.

"Yeah. Nice right? Some dumb guy decided to trash my car because of his broken heart. Thought that might as well get a new car." Yoongi explained.

Junghyung chuckled and rolled his eyes. His uncle could be so cool sometimes.

They stood in silence for a while.

"Are you back? For good?" Junghyung asked.

Yoongi pat his back lightly.

"Yeah. I'm back." Yoongi said with a smile.

"I'm so nervous, Taetae. You don't even know!" Jeongguk said pacing back and forth in their home, preparing a dinner.

Taehyung laughed at the Younger's frantic state.

"Don't worry Ggukie. Everything's going to be fine!" He told him for the hundredth time that evening.

Jeongguk pouted.

"What if he decided to hate me forever hyung. What if he thinks that I'm still an asshole!"

Taehyung sighed and took him in his arms.

"Everything will be okay. He's your hyung. The same hyung who sacrificed his weekend parties to stay up late with you to finish your homeworks."

Jeongguk sighed leaning closer and kissing his lover.

"Yeah. I just hope he can forgive me for being so ignorant all these times! Hell! I didn't even know that father was so cruel to him!" He said with newfound anger.

"Baby. You didn't know. And Yoongi understand that. He's going to be in our lives. Worry not."

And that seems to calm Jeongguk's erratic heartbeat.

"Okay. I trust you babe." He said.

Yoongi wouldn't believe it if you told him five months back that he will be standing here at the door of Taehyung's home to meet Jeongguk.

But here he is.

With a shaky heart and obvious nervousness but with excitement to reunite with his younger brother.

Before he could knocked on the door, the door was wide open and he was greeted by Taehyung and Taejung.

"Uncle Yoongi!" Taejung squealed and crashed into him.

Yoongi easily caught the boy in his arms.

"Wah! Taejungah! You've grown big!" He said and peppered the young one's face with kisses resulting in a fit of giggles.

"Hyung! You're awfully late! I was getting worried!" Taehyung whined.

Yoongi chuckled and leaned in to peck Taehyung's forehead.

"I wanted to get you your favourite pastry! Had to get in line!" He said as he get inside the house.

"Jeongguk! Taeggukie! Junghyungie! Yoongi is here!" Taehyung shouted.

There were a loud footsteps and commotion.

"Untle Yoonie!" Taegguk squealed and ran into him.

"Wah! Taeggukie! Aren't you cute?" Yoongi said and ruffled his hair.

"We mith you Untle Yoonie!" Taegguk whined.

"Awww me too. I miss you guys so much!" He truthfully said.

Junghyung gave him a smile and gestured him towards his Papa who was fidgeting with his fingers.

The two siblings met eyes and Jeongguk hesitantly smile.

"Hi hyung.." he greeted.

Yoongi was taken back to when they were young when Jeongguk was only a child and when he had to leave him.

He was hit with nostalgia.

"Hi.. Jeonggukkie." He greeted.

Taehyung took Taegguk in his arms.

"Missed your hyungie?" Yoongi asked teasingly and that was all it took for Jeongguk to ran into his arms.

The siblings embraced each other and sobbed their hearts out.

Taehyung and Junghyung watch them with happy tears while the two babies were so confused.

"No cry! No cry!" Taegguk cried resulting in laughter.

The evening went well. There was a lot to discuss between Yoongi and Jeongguk so Taehyung decided to take the kids out to the nearby park to give them privacy.

"Why did Papa and Uncle cried Daddy?" Taejung asked him worriedly.

Taehyung gently stroke his son's hair.

"Ahhh.. Taejungah! Your papa and your uncle are brothers." He explained.

"Really?" The seven year old asked, shocked.

"Yeah. Baby. There were close and loved each other just like you and Taeggukie. They were apart for a long time. They cried because the miss each other."

Taejung thoughtfully nodded his head.

"I'll cry too if Taeggukie and hyungie get away too. I'll miss them." He said

Taehyung smiled.

"You'll never be apart. Me and Papa will make sure of that. Okay?" He said.

Taejung smiled and kissed his daddy.

"Okay Daddy. I trust you." He said and snuggled into his father's arms while they watch Junghyung and Taegguk playing by the swings.
