❄ IT STARTED WITH A LIE ❄

Chapter 18

" 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 ? "
----------------------------------------------
its clear as sky that late noon that it was only
him had that vibe cause the others around held
that puzzled look on their faces towards him as
if he suddenly turns onto a total stranger looking
stupidly terrified . but who could blame him if
they were to know everything the truth and dark
events back then, they could probably sure at
the same state or maybe in other way. now
having the root cause to all of this in front of
him acting all innocent and unbothered around
them ( his victims ) as what he wants to
describe it. is quite unnerving as hell as for him.
he's the only one obviously knows they were the
subjects which was once wrapped around his
fingers. and judging by his facade he's
seemingly planning on manipulating everything
from each of them once again by playing nice
and perfect.
taehyung grew nervous as the strange staring
mini competition between his father and
namjoon hyung continues and keep getting
intense by passing seconds mustering their
strong different emotions within them he could
practically feel the air turning heavy around
them steaming the atmosphere that also made
ttheir daughter in his arms squirm
uncomfortably hiding her face deep on crook of
his neck almost choking him with her firm grip
round his nape even students got intrigued by
them , feeling the tension weighing. as if the
heavy dark wind whip through random air
making each and every passers turn their heads
towards their direction that had jungkook to step
in awkwardly between them cutting the
attention back like a knife would to thin air.
chuckling whilst running a gentle hand on each
of the two to part them as they unconsciously
taking steps forward each other from the
beginning. taehyung let out the breathe of air
he doesn't know he's holding till jungkook take
action to the scene .
" h-hey hyung guess I forgot to introduce you to
each other ehh? Sorry for that soooo ..."
jungkook wet his turning dry lips licking its
surface from nervousness that he'd no idea why
he's having. but more likely because of the
confusing situation they were in . he glance
from his hyung to Mr Kim
" namjoon hyung this is Mr Kim obviously
taehyung's dad and my father in law , Dad
martin "
yes he's that confident now. ( after all taehyung
and him is gonna marry finally )
namjoon avert his gaze from the man and
ignored the younger's introduction for a second
as he turned to his side to look at taehyung
who already had his round innocent eyes focus
up on him he could feel his confusion and fear
through those glimmering expressive eyes
namjoon hide the sadness in his own building
the courage to play along as he musk his most
attractive dimpled smile up his facade to assure
the youngers who instantly mirrored him with
his own alluring one .
taking a breath , he looked back to the
introduced man and extended his hand
switching to polite mode .
" well nice to meet you sir martin Kim I'm
namjoon one of jungkook's and your Son's
closest friends "
Martin smiled and returned the gesture holding
the mysterious younger's hand and shakes it
interestingly.
" good to hear that , It's an honor to meet you
young man . . . namjoon, by the way we're
about to get some food would you like to join
us?, it'll be a good opportunity to know you
more what do you think ? "
As they pulled from each other namjoon keep
his smile trying to read Martin's mind as he
spoke those words seemingly wanting to know
more than the said invitation behind his facade
if he were to start another game then namjoon
really didn't like to. heck he doesn't even want
to breath the same air as him in one place as it
makes him feel like being suffocated just by the
thought but a hopeful glint in taehyung's eyes
searching on him and his soft hand rounding his
bicep leave him no choice and managed a timid
nod as agreement cause namjoon felt it again.
experiencing it as though from the start over
again but in a complete opposite situation but
same reason and opponent . the urge to protect
taehyung . to look after the two cause its not
just him anymore , him and the child .
so if the same evil plans on setting a game on
them again then might as well namjoon should
tag along.
they went on one of the finest cozy restaurant
near their uni that serves great variety of
delicious classy food and satisfying selection of
fresh drinks from health friendly to refreshing
colorful beverages . jungkook and Mr Kim were
the ones to decide their orders as namjoon and
taehyung was new to the place and wasn't
familiar with the servings , they let the two to
decide their order as they seems already fine
with each other . . . or maybe more . the father
and son in law's bond really absolutely great
with one another. as they were this all too
enthusiastic on everything sharing stuffs and
opinion about random matters as they talk here
and there the two look as if they had quite good
friendship in the past and just hadn't had a
time to hang out and got along with each other
at a long time. so was now taking their time
laughing and joking around effortlessly making
the other two a bit out of place and question
their connection all along .
jungkook and taehyung seated in one comfy
couch with their child situated between them
while Mr Kim is just on the other side of the
table beside his son in law's, still chatting with
him and namjoon sat across him near
taehyung's side eyeing the man in front of him
amused by his foreplay all the while he's
mentally taking note each of his movements
trying to analyse how could this man keep up
his fake oblivious demeanor and what could
possibly his intention might be
Mr Kim wasn't oblivious though , as the not so
silent dining goes on he kept on conversing with
jungkook trying to involved his son while babying
his grandchild and acting nice and innocent
towards the new guy 'namjoon' who intently
burning daggers on him as he constantly trying
to add him with their subject .
taehyung wasn't that all of a dumb he knew
that something is off as it doesn't need genius
to start with , having that kind of senses and
guts only provoking his inner feeling and
thoughts that making the two situated in one
room wasn't a good idea at all . they were not
okay with each other that's for sure . as just by
their expressions from the start it was absolutely
obvious. forming an urge of him to ask about it
to his hyung. but then . . . he's sure as his
irritating stomach crumbs does , knowing all too
well and had been for too long with the elder he
wouldn't utter as single word as his question to
him considering his all-too-familiar upset face .
taehyung is certain he could not get any answer
out of him right now .
( or ever )
asami keep tossing and turning between her
parents lap laying her head on his papa while
her feet on her mother's homey warm legs she
loves it this way , loves how she had her parents
presence all to herself at last, after the
torturous of morning hours without them. asami
might not that of an obvious yet but her young
soul knows the missing unknown puzzle piece of
her from the start that had long gone before, is
already here beside her to embrace and cherish
her from now on. she's absolutely already head
over tiny paws giddy for that . her mother's
whole presence all the time around her and his
father today and for the other ones is all she's
been yearning for .
as she nibbles with the string of a noodle from
her mother's bowl of pasta to her mouth trying
too hard to finish the single piece by the help of
only her tiny two front milk teeth she is that too
desperate to finish it as fast as she could
following her mother's movement as he takes a
forkful of it effortlessly. mindful of other juicy
stands from taehyung's table paying glances to
check down on her bringing down a tissue and
wipe out the corner of her mouth.
asami can form words now step by step by
curiosity ans with the help of both her young
parents giving time teaching sentences with
entertaining tricks and tapes to begin with, to
pick her interest in. they teach her every single
night before going to sleep after their busy tiring
day from school and other stuff or even before
their own assignments to such. the was grateful
as their daughter is a fast learner she could
remember any single information that would
instruct on her and pass her ears .
once it was said to her she'll immediately adapt
on it and noted in mind. she was also a quite
observer and as always was loud . so when
taehyung tried to be a lovey dobey fiance to her
papa gesturing the fork of her possession to his
mouth , she jolted up shoving the last tip of
pasta in her mouth to crawl back instantly
hugging her mother's neck with the shake of
head vigorously .
screaming .
" NUUU MAMA ! "
taehyung yelp in surprise retreating his hand as
he put down the utensil back on his plate . he'd
almost throw the pasta somewhere due to that.
he carefully loosened his daughter's clutch on
him as he glance back at the other costumers
that got startled as well.
he turned back frowning at the baby's reaction ,
cutely pouting her plump lips at him along with
round big hopeful eyes as jungkook only laugh
at her steadying her small back as she startled
sloppily of her own sudden movement , raising
a brow , taehyung unattached her from his
aching neck gently to put her on his lap instead
" asami what's wrong ? haven't you remember
the last time I told you not to raise voice while
were out ? . . . does you perhaps want to stay
at home again ? "
The little one shook her head once again as she
glance on his papa's plate of food then back to
his scolding mother she play with his buttons
near his collar for a bit. still pouting like duck.
before looking up and response to him , orbs
grew wide even more .
" nu mama suury , but luuk oh papa "
she cup the aforementioned face to turn his
head and taehyung let her
" papa have ! "
now they all know what she's yelling for. she
doesn't want anyone took food from her
mother's even jungkook .
his father.
as he have already on his plate and just by
taking its appearance she don't definitely like
his food . ( mostly topped with crispy fresh
veggies ) and now that mama allowed her to eat
, ( other than cereals ) asami don't want to
share with her muscled papa pig
"don' wan' mama pliss "
a fit of laughter rolled out from everyone
bouncing off their round of tables. finding the
child's behaviour quite funny and horribly
adorable as her father playfully sulk down
glaring at them crossing his arms against his
chest. huffing .
( it wasn't the first time asami feels not sharing
with her papa it happened a lot recently
especially if it involves her mama's )
' she's really a ball of fluff '
namjoon thought as he watch the small form of
family in front of him he does want this kind of
life too.
have the same luck as jungkook .
to have the person you loved , love you back ,
to cherish and be happy with . to care, love and
form family with.
for the rest of your life.
if ever fate was just fair to everyone .
" but baby that wasn't nice . . . okay ? you
should always share your blessings with your
love ones even strangers , especially papa "
taehyung wipe off tears that were due from too
much laughter brushing his daughter's hair from
her vision as she nod her head attentively up on
him
" papa might cry because of baby's rudeness
might as well want to say something to him
before he could ? "
again, asami listened to him as she nod her
head vigorously and perked up from his lap then
crawled on his father's
" papa suury "
asami cupped jungkook's as round cheeks as
hers and pecked his fake trembling lips which
instantly replaced with the wide bunny - like
smile quite amused by his daughter's obedient
attitude towards taehyung ( or should we say
her mom ? ) jungkook still couldn't put a hand
on it but the way asami reacts around taehyung
is absolutely confusing. in different aspects and
he knows for sure it not just these and he'll be
expecting more of such in years to come as she
grow up with the two of them in the future but
jungkook is certain he'll love and accept those,
as long as taehyung and asami is beside him as
always as it already is . he couldn't ever be
more happier .
lowering his head , he returned the gesture by
pecking her temple which made her giggle and
look back proudly at her mother clapping her
chubby tiny hands happily
" mama daaan ! " ( done )
taehyung's feature contoured to a soft one as
he cooed at the toddler nodding his head as an
approval to that. he leaned to them and kiss
asami's bouncing cheek that made her beautiful
boxy smile to show up wide with two small teeth
at top of it ,eyes disappearing to a flat thin line.
" very good "
the two young parents chuckles at her as they
look at their daughter fondly
namjoon on the other hand turned to observe
Mr. kim who has shit - eating ugly grin on his
face watching the two younger across from him
almost as if ripping his own lips by it's wideness
and unusual length .
that dark brows furrows as his eyes narrowed
sharply on the oblivious man ( or evil for him )
taking a sip of his own drink, he continue to
burn daggers at him
' what game were you planning to play this time
'
-----------------------------------------------------
after their dine out the couple bid goodbye to
the other two ( mostly the cheerful jungkook as
taehyung was still puzzled by their strange
demeanour ) to hoped on their car ( namjoon
was the first one to left ) and quickly drive home
after dropping Mr. kim somewhere near market
place ( as he refused jungkook's offer to direct
him at home ) and as asami got a little too hard
to handle out on public again demandingly
whining to crawl under her mother's shirt and
taehyung couldn't handle the embarrassment
any longer. dragged the father as soon as
possible from the curious crowd .
( another thing jungkook can't wrapped up his
mind on )
on their way back taehyung couldn't help but
think about the last thing his father said to him
while asami finally succeeded her way
underneath his messy cloth
' take care '
----------------------------------------------------
the time they reached home asami was already
passed asleep mouth round and swollen sucking
at nothing as taehyung retreat her from his lap
to his arms carrying her inside after jungkook
got out of car and opened the door for them
even the maid was already there
" good evening Mr. jeons "
taehyung despite wasn't on time for these can't
help the flushed on his face as soon as he heard
that as jungkook only chuckles at his reaction
and returned the formality at the women back
' the fuck I'm not even jeon's yet '
" good evening noona have you ate dinner ? it's
passed 6 already "
the middle aged women shook her head as she
looked down on asami who's on taehyung's
arms mouth still moving adorably while her tiny
hand rest on the latter's chest
" I haven't yet "
taehyung instantly perked up on that with
furrowed brows. halting his movement on
rocking the child slowly. suddenly got concern
for his great noona
" but why ? we've already told you that you
don't have to wait for us noona . . . oh wait -
did jungkook forgot to message you about us
getting late ? "
taehyung was about to scold his fiance when he
turned to him but the lady just laugh and spoke
up
" oh no no , not that. actually he does told me
earlier about it as soon as your father went here
this morning .
its actually because I'm planning on having
dinner with my child tonight "
she said those last part rather fondly as she
looked back on sleeping ( beauty ) asami with
loving eyes
taehyung glance on his as confused fiancés face
as him before returning to her and ask
" oh my god I didn't know you had a child
noona t-that's amazing but how come you
haven't told us ? "
she once again just smile and turned her back at
them only to reach something from her small
bag beside the kitchen counter
Confused . the couple kick off their shoes after
exchanging puzzled look jungkook had to help
taehyung with his as its more difficult for him.
after bending down to untie his shoelaces , the
younger take the older with him to follow their
noona taking a seat on the living room
as taehyung carefully positioned his daughter on
his hold , he took a look on the thing that was
handed by the lady on jungkook's palm
examining it .
there was a pretty girl probably on her late
twenty's doing a piece sign smiling brightly for
the picture as it captured her similarities of her
mom's face perfectly
" that was my daughter . my only child amira. "
the two nod their head attentively gaze still
locked on the object
" I still couldn't get it why you didn't tell me
anything about it noona "
" I'm sorry about that my son jungkook , it has
just been such a sensitive matter for me after
what had happened between me and her dad
back then - "
Jungkook quickly wave his hand deniably as his
voice raise a bit louder
" Oh No No No IT'S TOTALLY FINE NOONA YOU
REALLY DOESN'T HAVE TO AFTER ALL - "
a smack on the back of his head made him shut
up instantly
" your child is sleeping jungkook ! "
taehyung glares at him as he bring asami closer
to his chest fortunately peacefully un bothered
jungkook rub his head . quite embarrassed after
his fiancé just happened to scold him in front of
their noona realizing his stupidity .
" sorry love "
the women shake her head chuckling at them
' what a perfect young family '
She clears her throat and bring back their
attention on her as she continue
" as I was saying my daughter is finally here
with me again . and I'm glad that you
understand that I'm not ready to tell the reason
about it yet jungkook, it has been a long while
since she'd gone and now that I'm finally able
to have time to be with her I just want to spend
most of my time as often as possible with her .
I want to fulfil those times I'm not there to take
care of her as a mother should "
taehyung could literally feel his heart crumbling
just by the thought of his own mother
' she's so nice just like mom I miss her so much
'
jungkook smile sadly wishing his mother was
same as her towards him
' she just sees me as an heir to expand their
business industry more in the future '
" and I'm more than happy as she's not only
her anymore "
" what do you mean by that noona ? "
" just like what you are now taehyung, she also
already have a beautiful daughter "
----------------------------------------------------
as they tucked their daughter to bed the couple
couldn't get over what their noona's word to
them before leaving .
"Jungkook do you really think that's possible ? "
the younger hummed and pressed a tender kiss
on asami's head before walking close to his
fiancé on the window glass staring up the night
sky outside
two strong firm arms snakes round his waist
caging him from behind as taehyung sigh in
contentment and leaned to the warmth emitting
from the other's chest as it gives strong
protection kind of vibe to him that feels like
home .
" I believe it does possible for us love "
a smile made it's way up his moon's raise
reflected ethereal face as the younger land a
long loving kiss on his nape humming on his
neck glands.
scenting him.
" I'm quite hoping the same kookie i really do "
jungkook mirrored his lover's sweet grin as he
joined him watching the night sky littered with
bright sparkling variety of stars stunning up their
wonderfully with its king moon on the center of
them painting the world on it's dark time .
Before jungkook could make another move on
him a ringtone echoed loud round the room to
cut their soft moment the younger groan as was
from him he quickly pulled out his phone from
behind his jean as taehyung just chuckles
glancing on their daughter , fortunately it was
short as it was just a notification.
taehyung swipe up to see that it was a message
and so was jungkook
( yes jungkook hand it to him that's how loyal
he is . . . and just in case )
Message
MOM [ son we're gonna go there tomorrow ]
' just always remember jungkook and taehyung
my son , their might be parents that wasn't that
all of a perfect ones but grandparents heart is
really something else and would always be
beyond perfection no matter what '
