I'm Breaking

Chapter 52

Author PoV

Rachel and Cole sat together in Il-Do's office.

It's been confirmed that Jungkook came back from Busan a few nights ago, and what's left to do is to tell him that he's Jiyoon's father.

Both of Jungkook's workers were very nervous as to why Il-Do suddenly called them in. Il-Do was signing a few papers and wrote a few things in his memo before turning to them.

He cleared his throat before saying anything.

Like what Mr. Jeon requested to Cole, Il-Do holds a copy of Jiyoon's original birth certificate. And he examined the photocopy of the birth certificate more than 3 times.

"Appa said to monitor Jungkook and Chaeyoung-ssi," Il-Do said. "If she doesnt tell him within the next 2 weeks, both of you are assigned to do it, arasseo?"

"Ne."

"Ne."

Jungkook PoV

I sat in my office, once again and checked the video game proposals that Bambam and Yugyeom offered in GCF. When GCF was not yet a big gaming entertainment, my father would always ask me and my brothers what game we envision.

My answer were always those games that involves hitting and killing. And I played a lot of games during college, while I was not staying in the mansion.

It's about 1 in the afternoon, I haven't taken my lunch or snacks. I barely ate my breakfast, a glass of banana milk and a slice of bread. My stomach was not rumbling either, I wasn't feeling anything but the thought of 'work, work, work' was all in my head.

I forget all the time that at 1 in the afternoon, someone would always pass by. Or both of us would be going to my office together.

She's probably not going here anymore.

I sighed and looked at my laptop, scrolled through some social media. Of course, as a person who is targeted by media, I barely post anything on social media. Yes, I do have a private account like the others but this time I was scrolling through the public account in twitter.

Checking the news on what's going on in the US branch of Jeon Foundations, or how the game's reviews were going. Mostly, I find Jennie's and Taehyung's fashion line on the trend. While Jimin's new soloist is receiving a lot of attention in Asia and Europe.

Someone knocks on my door, and I looked at it for a second. Is there someone scheduled to meet up with me today?

"Come-come in," I say.

The door opens but I didn't see anyone except the bodyguard who roams around the executive floor level.

I relaxed in relief, the person who comes in my office every 1 in the afternoon is here.

"Appa, I'm right here!" she jumped in the air with her hand up.

I laughed and looked at the bodyguard, "Please give us some privacy?"

He was smiling at Jiyoon and nodded to me.

That guard always awaits Jiyoon in the elevator every 12 noon. Jiyoon's first week here in the company, she was still scared so I came everywhere with her. After a week, she can go out alone and knows where my office is, she can exit the car and enter the company without getting scared.

I know, she doesn't even reach the buttons in the elevator!

"Appa, appa," she throws her things in my office couch then sits down. "When can I stay home with eomma?"

I tilted my head, "You aren't staying with your eomma?"

She nods, "I stay with Jennie-eomma and Uncle Taehyung."

When I heard Taehyung's name, I shot my head towards her.

Huh?

So Taehyung..has been hiding a relationship. A good discussion to make him embarrassed, I see.

"For how long now?" I asked Jiyoon.

"Hmm," she placed her pointers on her temples. "For about a week now!"

"Aish, jinjja. Park Chaeyoung you're a mother, not a single-lady," I cussed under my breath.

I closed my laptop and folders then threw my pen on my desk. After that, I stood up from my chair and looked at Jiyoon with a smile.

"Come on, let's go. I want to show you some places," I told her.

She hops off the couch and puts her tiny hand into mine.

"Where are we going?" she asked.

I kneeled down to her level, "It's still 1 in the afternoon, and I want you," I touched her nose, "to pick what kind of house you want."

"Appa, I can't own a house, yet!" she exaggerated and laughs.

"Ani, appa will buy a house so you can have a nice and comfortable stay when you're with me."

She clapped, "I want a room with light pink and light purple!! A window side bed, too!! Can I also have a big space for my stuff toys? Also a pretty pink bean bag!"

"You're not living with me, baby," I laughed. "But alright, that's what the princess wants, that's what she gets. Come on, let's pick a nice house."

"House shopping!!!!! I wish mommy were here too, so she can pick what she wants too," she smiled and walked ahead of me.

I stared at her for a while.

It would've been like this if she stayed.

The 3 of us going around the houses, as my tenant would take us around to the different houses. He's my brother's classmate, so we know each other pretty well.

I've seen the 5 houses he's proposed to me. They were all nice, and I didn't have the time to look around to see how they look like inside.

I wish Chaeyoung would've been here with us.

But scratch that. Forgive and forget, let bygones be bygones, past is past.

Let's start again from scratch.
