❄ IT STARTED WITH A LIE ❄

Chapter 17

chuckling .
" what ? Of course i won't ! why would i ? Its
my most beautiful Son's especial day and I just
want to witness it personally !"
he was about to cup his son's face but stopped
as he'd saw someone walking down the stairs
from his peripheral vision he looked up and
meet with a pair of furrowed dark set of eyes
curiously staring at him . then his eyes widened
as he registers the boy's face . and he's holding
a baby in his arms and its definitely a girl. hair
tied up in ponytail . smiling
" love who's he ? "
Taehyung spinned back and the young man
came near him and lay a possessive arm round
his waist the baby make a grabby hands
' he- he's t- that boy '
Mr Kim's mouth hang ajar and seems like the all
too familiar boy had already long forgotten him
" mama! "
' no way '
------------------------------------------
the moment asami clung on her mother's neck
who has his doe eyes on the strange man in
front of them she followed his gaze and flashed
a grin to him as her way of greeting the person
the gesture is so pure so bright so big that could
literally melt anyone's heart and turns off the
grey cold sky by its energy and brightness no
doubt Mr kim smiles pathetically back
unknowingly, at the sight but that wasn't just
because of that the little fluff of joy on his son's
hold has the exact Same boxy grin as taehyung
that tug his heart with a familiar pride yet
strange heavy weight that confused even scared
him
Jungkook watching the scene before him silently
observing the strange man and his behavior
while smiling back on his child he also sensed
taehyung's unsettled state as he was shifting on
his feet another gesture of him when he was
unconformable or simply didn't like the situation
he was in . this made him concern and of course
intrigue as to why the elder was acting like this
which giving him bad vibes towards the stranger
and enough to tighten his possessive grip on his
fiancé's waist to turn protective and assuring
furrowing his brows as taehyung glance up on
him seemingly terrified of something judging by
the look on his face only confusing him more
and he didn't like it
Just as he's about to ask nor open his mouth
yet again his hyperactive daughter interrupted
him
" mama papa sha -ndimo bamba ! "
Okay what even was that . seriously his little girl
needs to shut a bit and low down the incoherent
blabbering of her as it only blocking and his
attempts .taehyung rock her gently to hush her
the sudden movement made asami giggles
looking up at her mother reaching for his
piercings squealing as she made it and receive a
kiss to nose from him .
while on the other hand Mr Kim feel this urge of
taking a hold of the child and pinch her full
pinky cheeks while playing with her adorable
hands and feel her in his warm embrace but he
found himself questioning his own emotions and
sudden effect of the child on him its feels so
wrong yet definitely right scaring his own .
jungkook not having any of these awkward
situation anymore decided to break the thick
silence .
" Hey uhm - I mean I'm jungkook the owner of
this house and my lover -this taehyung's fiancé
so in all respect may I know your name mister
and probably what might can we do for you ? "
He said ever so politely praying his choice of
words is good enough to not came out as
unrespectful type but it seems like it as it works
almost right seeing the man perked up his gaze
nodding his head in consideration of his
presence and words but you could tell he's a
little nervous base on his wary and frantic eyes
rubbing his nape .
" oh i -i am martin but i prefer just mr kim - "
before he can go further taehyung cuts in
" he's m- my father kookie "
The word 'father' seems to leave a bitter taste
on his mouth as he spill it out but nonetheless
forcely shrugged it off as jungkook's dark hazy
orbs widened comically back at him absolutely in
utter shock by what he'd said
" wh-what !? why you didn't you tell me right
away ! "
The younger's voice laced with panic and a tiny
bit of disappointment to his lover for not
informing him immediately as he didn't know
his father would visit them if so at least he
could prefer himself and be all presentable in
front of the man to have a nice first impression
to him even if he always looks good but still
" oh goodness I'm sorry Mr Kim for my attitude
earlier please come "
mr kim doesn't want to , heck more likely for
taehyung as the said boy is now sweating and
burning daggers to his own fiancé to not let his
father to get in as he's quite nervous and
scared for what might he's intention and plan
this time no one can blame him though as his so
called father had done such terrible things to
him back then and to his love ones which he
didn't like to happen to his new building family
too. the thought driving him insane . yet
jungkook wasn't paying attention on him as he's
busy ushering the man to get in and gesturing a
seat he'd pulled for him
' what he wants this time please not now not
them lord help me please I'm begging you '
" well I'm just really here to only surprise my
child i honestly wasn't expecting on meeting you
right away as I prefer it on your wedding day
ceremony instead for you know maybe a thrill
nor have a proper visit but - thank you anyway "
he trailed off and a sure sign of a little unsure
that instantly got by the younger Chuckling
hesitantly
" jungkook "
" yeah right jungkook , sorry I'm becoming
frequently forgettable as of my age "
Jungkook let out a light laugh taking a seat next
to the man who's practically his father soon too
he gesture his maid to get some drinks for the
visitor such a brief time to distract him from
nervousness but he feels like seemingly getting
attached to the man immediately as if his
presence is not new at all not totally too strange
for him and he likes it when Mr Kim smiles at
him he sends back a fond one . they're might
be on same vibes calming warming him .
Mr Kim watch his son's future husband's
behavior in confusion cause every time he tries
to spot a single sign from the younger he
couldn't find it even a bit. the boy could really
probably forgotten him and their first interaction
yeah it might be too long ago but considering his
age he can still remember it clearly and fine as
its absolutely unforgettable one for the both of
them but why , why does he seems like not
knowing it not had any whip from it as if that
night didn't happened . and fucking how and
why does taehyung is with him . before he could
loose his mind a soft thud from the chilled tall
glass of Orange juice with a plate of creamy
pastry placed down in front of him snapped him
out of thus.
He looks up at the servant muttering a low
'thank you' bowing his head before recomposing
himself.
" you know jungkook I'm not really hungry at all
besi- "
he was cut off by the younger before him who's
shaking his head exasperatedly still wearing the
smile whilst waving both of his hand
" no no please don't refuse the only offer I
could only prefer by now please Mr Kim and
we'll be having it too now as we forgot to taste
it before going up so please do join us also i
assure you its delicious like really I couldn't
muster a right word to praise it as my one and
only made that earlier "
Jungkook hasn't having any idea where these
openly and confidence of setting a nice
conversation between him and his future dad
was coming from all of a sudden all he new was
that he needs to impress the man for he would
have a good impact on him. but as the other
was mentioned he diverted his gaze to the elder
only to find him froze on his spot the same
place on the doorway still having that look on
his face it bothered him.
" love , what are you still doing there ? come
here sit beside me we'll be going to eat your
crossini masterpiece with your dad cmon "
by the look of his fiancé how could taehyung
refuse that . so to not ruin the younger's happy
demeanour and atmosphere he dragged himself
near the dining table forcing a light smile to him
securing his hold on his daughter more as asami
now clapping her hands excitedly as they get
near to the two fathers along with her
uncontrollable feet kicking his abdomen like
before . it hurts him but what he could do with
this ball of energy
" papapapapapapapapa ! "
jungkook grin wide like an idiot hearing that
extending his hands for his little brat but asami
playfully slap his hands away letting out a high
pitched squeal at the top of her lungs almost
tearing their eardrums apart nevertheless it
caused the laughter spill out of the elder's
mouths simultaneously in unison by her weird
yet cute nature . the heaviness seems to pull
out of the father and son's body as they let
themselves be gotten at the recent event
they're having mind completely forgetting the
dark thoughts slipped off by the little miracle in
front of them for the mere time . they looked
like a whole family an absolute set of a real one
yet without their knowing and knowledge . it
feels so nice that Mr Kim found himself looking
forward for more of these
" what hmm? "
Taehyung plopped down on his seat beside his
lover giggling at his annoyingly adorable
daughter caged in his arms who was now hiding
her face at the crook of his neck seemingly
getting all flustered by her own deed tugging his
collar down as if wanting to hide inside his
clothes that bring back the laughter again round
the table
" baby look at papa don't ignore me yeah ? or
else I won't give you a treat "
Jungkook playfully held a sulking face to his
daughter pouting at her while batting his eyelids
pitifully which he only got a shy smile and shake
of head as asami doesn't wanting to give in
pressing herself on her mother's warmth even
more
" my grandchild is so beautiful "
that break the moment between the couple and
child as the words lingered in the air and got
absorbed by all of them but not really in a
wrong way well not for jungkook as a felt a tug
of joy and pride hearing those words completely
considering the man's words
" yes he really is just like her mom "
He said turning to his lover beside him who has
his face creeping crimson by now averting his
attention on their noona placing the set of
pastry and milk on the table wearing a warm
smile that hasn't failed to calm taehyung . Mr
kim had to supress a smile seeing the male's
undoubting loving eyes to his son across him if
only the two only new about their dark past
would they still be all this lovey dovey together.
he should be excited and giddy but the thought
strangely gives him bad weight which he doesn't
like at all or maybe he really didn't the two
would know
" by the way youngers or should I say my sons
when the wedding would took place ? "
he said before finally taking his first bite of food
letting its familiar taste swirl on his tongue then
sipping on his drink beforehand it feels cozy and
homelike reminding him of something that
would most probably just bring back the
sadness if he tolerates so he shakes it off
hurriedly .
Jungkook and taehyung look at each other for a
second before turning back to their ' father'
staring at them patiently the younger
responded.
" maybe . . . two months from now as we aren't
done yet with our requirements at school before
it ends and yeah we want to held it on vacation
break for less stress and hectic stuffs "
" hmm that's good to hear anyways how are you
taehyung ? "
The sudden attention on him got his breath
caught up on his troath hitching his air supply In
a moment good thing he wasn't taking his own
food yet
" uh erm . . . I'm f- fine appa "
the father didn't like the forced on his voice so
he carry on.
" how was your health lately ? "
Taehyung only becoming more nervous
" g- good as always y-yeah nothing to worry
appa "
" his was jungkook being a partner ? "
He looked up at his lover who's silently nodding
in agreement munching his food
" h- he's nice and responsible partner and he
did not e- even gave me a hard time since then
he's also a great father and a role model for his
daughter and all he's a total ideal of mine "
' is that so '
Mr Kim just hummed along those words of his
as he kept watching their movements quite
impress by their pure feelings towards each
other . and jungkook can't help the stupid wide
grin spread out of his lips
" ~nanyi mwan mamam ashuwi nyam mama ~ "
here we go with this little alien again whining on
her mother's arms pointing on his chest but
practically more on his nipples . oops. no not
now. Taehyung spare a warning look on his
daughter to stop him which unfortunately got
her whining louder even more . throwing
tantrums on him . starting to let out her cry. its
a big problem now wasn't it. in front of them
really.
" can I hold her ? "
with furrowed brows taehyung looked up to his
father clearly didn't like what he had just heard
. jungkook sensed it and yet again he doesn't
want the elder's rudeness so he flashed a bright
smile to the man taking his own child out of his
startled fiancé and hand her to him instead.
" of course you're her grandpa anyways "
Mr kim couldn't believe it could not sink in
immediately at the action as asami placed on
his lap and hold he couldn't express the
happiness and warm feeling properly as all he
could do is to stare at the blinking ball of fluff in
front of him instantly. he bring her near his face
observing her closely asami raised her arm and
drag her tiny index on his nose then giggles
again like no tomorrow.
taehyung should be smiling and melting at the
scene by now like his fiancé if he wasn't having
this fear inside of him and aren't knowing his
father fully watching as he pressed a kiss on her
round cheek obviously suppressing a shed tear
to got out .
' why '
it doesn't take long and before they knew it mr
Kim is already bidding them goodbye and on
time to go he holds his grandchild the rest of
the time of them on the table talking about
random stuffs and playing with her constantly
jungkook had his smile throughout the time
thanking their father's visit and time also telling
him to come to them often considering they
were practically a family now which mr kim
gladly agrees .and taehyung assured himself the
whole situation up the end but not knowing nor
having a single idea on his father's whatever
plan absolutely bugged and unsettle him more
but choose to be quite than to say anything and
ruin the almost perfect moment. fearing it's
result and possibilities.
when his father is out of their sight he can
finally let out a sigh of relief turning back on his
confused fiance who was hushing asami from
whining again.
" is there's something bothering you ? Love , you
seems off most of the time is there a problem?
"
Taehyung quickly shook his head covering up
with his signature grin to assure him more likely
himself .but his father's strange behavior says
other wise which he's utterly hard to made
himself believe it was for good because there's
nothing good with that man at all he's a
complete threat of a nightmare but yet again it
confused him impossibly differ as to why the
man almost shred a tear just by having child on
his arms. how he look at her fondly with those
admiring and warm gaze of his . and why does
he seems all grateful to see her anyways they
didn't even have a real bond so what's the use
of it . if it was just a trapped or something well
he's having
" nothing love I'm just a little tired I guess ? "
" if that so let's rest now upstairs cmon "
" okay go on first i'll follow afterwards okay ? "
" okay "
they shared a quick peck on each lips before
turning to their separate way .
taehyung went to the cleaned up kitchen and
pull out a cold bottled water from the fridge
then chugged its half content to freshen up his
mind off these negativities he's not willing to
give another chance to that monster to come
ever again absolutely opposing his fiancé's
decision of inviting him back .
he can't be mad at the younger though nor
blame him he doesn't know anything anyway
besides it here being the one binding a
transaction with that man through his fiancés
fund for his own good was enough of a big sin
for him to be guiltiest here the reason of all of
these he's the main point. and its suffocates
him more than anything. if ever there would
something bad happened to his family he
wouldn't ever gonna forgive himself.
good thing him and his hyung is on a good term
now if it wasn't for his namjoon hyung they
wouldn't any be here yet though he's not sure
why the elder doing these to settle them and
how well he'd manage to get his brother's trust
but nonetheless his thankful of him.
-------------------------------------------
" bye love "
" bye "
" eew gross "
hoseok make a face of disgust after seeing the
couple shared a kiss and taehyung who heard it
rolled his eyes while jungkook shrugged it with
chuckle going on with his friends . a yelp
involuntarily leave his mouth in surprise as jimin
elbowed his side along with glare.
" ouch shit jimin that hurts ! "
" deserve that you bitter peacock "
hoseok just huff rubbing his side making
taehyung laugh at them jimin raised a brow as
he didn't got any answer
" know what hoseokie better find a lover m-"
" wow what is this an idiot advice from a
hopeless romantic midget like you ? don't act
experienced here as for you're a single like me
too "
jimin placed a hand on his chest acting offended
with a gasp shaking head in disbelief
" how dare you hurt me like that ? are you even
a friend ? "
hoseok turned to him halting their walk even
taehyung who's still chuckling at their childish
antics
" jimin reality hurts but you know what, we can
be more than just a friend only if you're done
being alone too "
he doesn't know why or how even that
happened but he could feel a dust of pink creep
up on his cheeks adorning his delicate face as
he bit his lips looking away
" y- you're out o- of your mind h- hobi that's
not a g- good joke "
The two's mouth forms 0 surprised by his
sudden change and o how could hoseok get him
so flustered instantly it quite amazed them even
the caused himself
" hey what's with that stuttering huh Jimin- ah ?
and woah is my best friend blushing ? "
Jimin exasperatedly shook his head looking wide
eyes to taehyung who's wiggling his brows
teasingly
" no am not ! and I'm not blushing though its
just turns hot here and i- I don't k- know ! "
hoseok hide a smile that was threatening to
spread out by biting his lips he move forward
and throw his arm on the shorter's shoulder
that made the male turned a living tomato
looking down finding interest on his shoes all of
a sudden.
" if you say so but we still need to go study so
we better go baby "
' its not helping bullshit '
the whole day of school went well and nice as
they were all prepared to have a first mini test
before the semester ends most of the classes
session was shared by the two best friends jimin
was thankful they were classes he didn't have
to deal with flirting master hoseok and look an
exact tomato all of the time but they were
oblivious to the pale man's jealous sharp eyes at
the back though that was silently watching them
annoyed
when the professor was out for a little break the
students took the opportunity to talk about the
new teacher who had a possibility of handling
them they were saying he's a young man that is
quite handsome and masculine he's also so
active in general and genius but what was the
most exciting for the girls was that he's friendly
and still single what a nice news to gossip about
right . but didn't pick any interest in taehyung
at all not even a bit .
Taehyung's fear in opening his locker still goes
on as he kept on still getting something odd and
scary stuffs inside of it every time he opens it
just like an almost looks real cut head of a girl
placed on his load of books with pulled out eye
socket and fake sticky blood pouring out of its
hair strands attached another threatening note
on its temple . after jimin told him about what
happened between him and Lisa he now knew
where and how these things came from he
wanted to face the girl and scold her for her
stupid deeds but can't as he knew jimin would
probably gonna end up killing that girl with his
own hands if he did so . taehyung know better .
but there were also this strange moments that
keeps on happening to him every single time .
taehyung could all of a sudden feel a burning
stare on him that was so often by now . but
whenever he looked up to see to whom might
could that be he couldn't catch anyone as his
fiends even his classmates are busy enough to
mind their own businesses in front of their table
. it scares him . another threat or what it driving
him crazy just by thinking and guessing .
taehyung is being watched .
as they got out he could hear loud noises on the
hallway as if giggling or cooing fangirls nor boys
or something jimin tried to get a peek tip toeing
to look above the students heads instantly
intrigued by the commotion hoseok and yoongi
followed them behind exchanging little words to
each other every single while with furrowed and
confused brows by the flow of Students
the noise getting louder and louder every step
they take people forming huge group in one
place having their own world with their loudness
girls squeals could clearly hear.
" ~ nyayhh mim hawuuh ~ "
" UWU "
taehyung's ears perked up his head snapped off
of his phone like a flash almost breaking his
own neck in the process
' i- is that my b- baby ? '
he quickly run down the hallway making his way
in the middle of wave of people pushing
students aside to got in front of them and as he
made it there he's beyond surprise to say the
less his mouth hang wide ajar seeing who was it
even the other three who made it beside him
instantly after he run out was expressing the
way he is.
there she was , on her pink onesies wearing a
bright maroon Barret on her head standing on
her pastel coloured walker holding the pacifier
on her right hand looking wide shimmering eyes
up at them batting her dark long eyelashes
adorably and when she saw him
" MAMA ! "
" WOOAH ! "
' the fuck my daughter is doing here ? '
taehyung hurriedly scooped up asami to his
arms looking around nervously to find any sight
of jungkook the students curiously looking at
them quite amazed
" is that your child ? "
" is that you and master jeon's baby ? "
" own you too are gonna get married soon
right ? "
" own you're the future of the jeon's heir ? "
" your child is adorable may I know her name ?
"
" and you may I know your name ? "
" can we have a picture with you two ? "
" can we please get along for a while I just want
to be your friend "
Yoongi and jimin quickly covered taehyung and
his child out of the area and loud students on
the way while hoseok carried the walker and
pushed who ever block their path to the exit
seeing how this gold diggers want to get close
near their friend and does attempts of going to
them which he didn't allowed and managed to
got out of there undamaged
taehyung was fuming with anger despite having
asami's uncontrollable cute giggles pressed in
his chest nibbling her pacifier looking for any
one who's responsible with this. as they stepped
outside his eyes lay on a certain raven haired
boy who is back facing him seemingly
unbothered by the whole situation having his
great time talking to what ever the hell someone
. with gritted teeth he walked up to jungkook
leaving his fiends watching him behind .
The younger turned to him and that is when he
noticed whom he was talking about
' what the '
" love "
Jungkook excitedly skip near him grinning wide
and he was caught off guard as his lover
pressed a tender kiss on his lips with a sloppy
sound afterwards cupping his face with his
hands .
" I'm glad you saw her dad lost her when he
was buying food for her and was worried sick as
he doesn't know the route here , he's about to
call the guards for searching but I told him I can
do it myself and turn out you're the first to find
her "
taehyung knitted his brows by confusion at that
looking back on the other man holding one of
asami's toys and a treat smiling at them
" what is he even doing here in the first place ?
how could you trust our. Child with him ? what
if something bad happened to her and I was too
late to see her huh ? "
Jungkook nervously scratch his nape as he was
suddenly got scold by his lover shaming him in
front of other people which he's wholeheartedly
accepting as his fault . the younger is quite
scared with his fiancé's anger and he doesn't
know why but he could surely obey the elder to
not upset him more and hate him .
" love, dad is here to visit us and of course have
time with his grandchild aren't you should be
grateful he's giving an effort to have time for us
"
taehyung still not convinced burning daggers to
his own father behind his man .
" even here in school ? "
He said mockingly raising a brow as their
daughter blinking up on them trying to figure
what even they were talking about blabbering
incoherent words to copy them .
" yeah obviously ? don't be like that please love
that's rude of you he's your father "
Taehyung only rolled his eyes yet let jungkook
pulled them near his waiting father on a bench
seat .
" how was school son ? "
' why do you even care '
" fine appa "
" owh glad to hear that keep on doing great son
"
' as if you're concern '
" by the way jungkook let's go to have a meal
now my treat cmon "
" no dad my treat "
' dad ? '
" but - "
" please dad I insist "
" well if that so then let's go "
' since when did this two got along ? '
" love, pass me asami you might be tired "
" no I'm fine kookie let's go "
' besides I'm comfortable with her on me '
Taehyung turned to his friends who instantly
wave their hands goodbye
" were fine here taehyungie we'll be going now
anyways "
" o-oh okay bye be safe "
" yeah you guys too have fun "
" right bye "
as they were walking to the parking lot going on
their car , jungkook and Mr Kim keep on
conversing about anything randomly but most is
about the upcoming wedding they seems really
fine and like each other's company like so
commonly you could mistaken them as long time
friends if taehyung was to ask . jungkook
bringing him up to got along with them which he
did but only hums and nod as if an attentive
one . the younger constantly stealing kisses on
him if having a chance or making up. seemingly
couldn't wait to have the elder all alone to
himself .making him want to slap jungkook from
embarrassment .
but they stopped on their track as someone
called them
" jungkook taehyung hey what's up "
Its namjoon .
" by the way here's the - oh "
He couldn't believe his eyes seeing the man
before them after so many years it was him .
Mr Kim locked eyes with a shocked namjoon also
confusing him
' what is he doing here '
a tap on his shoulder snapped him out of his
trance looking on his side
It was taehyung
" hyung what's wrong ? "
