Taehyung spent what felt like an eternity  in his car after he had arrived at Jungkook 's house. He  couldn't step out. Jungkook had called him many times but  he wouldn't  pick  up.

He finally got  out of the car and sighed when he had  reached the  door. He  sighed for the nth time before ringing the doorbell. His heart quickened when he  felt  footsteps coming towards the  door.

Jungkook opened the  door  looking  somewhat tired and  irritated.

"Hie"

"What  took  you  so long. Do you have any  idea how the  situation is right  now? "Jungkook asked as he lead the way  into  the  house.

"I'm  sorry. It's  really hard  for  me "Taehyung whispered.

"I  know Taehyung. It's hard for  me  too.You will have  to understand "

This was about to be the most awkward moment of Taehyung 's  life. The twins were seated  on the couch with  Jin. Tension trickled in the house like an electronic current.

Jungkook ushered Taehyung  to sit opposite  the  twins.

"Guys. ..this  is Taehyung. He is your  dad"Jungkook said.

"Mr...You  called papa right ?"Minho started  with a huge smile. At least  that  was  some  positive response.

"It's me"

"You  look  like Minie and I. I guess you  are  really our dad.Can  I  hug you? "Minho asked as he went over  to Taehyung who had knelt. Minjun  reacted  by walking  away.

"Junie. .."Jungkook called.

"Jungkook...let  him  be.He  will  need  time. "Jin said.

"I understand "

Instantly Taehyung and Minho  clicked and the younger was already telling him  some of Jin's  dad jokes. He  didn't ask about anything else. He was just happy  about  having  a person to call his father .

Jin made dinner but Minjun still wouldn't  leave  their  room. No one  really  ate that night.

"I  think  you  should  go and talk to him "Jungkook  suggested right after dinner.

"Should I? "Taehyung asked wryly.

"You  have to"

"I will  go with you "Minho offered  and  held Taehyung 's hand  up the  stairs. He  left him  in front of their room.

Taehyung gently  knocked  on the door and it was instantly opened.
"Can  I  come  in?"Taehyung whispered and the younger  nodded .

Minjun went to sit  on his bed and faced the wall. Taehyung  went and sat on Minho's.

"I really  don't  know where  to start. I don't think  apologizing will  ever be  good enough but  I'm  going  to do it.I'm  really  sorry "Taehyung hang his face in his hands.

"If Minie has forgiven you then  I will try  to do so.Papa said I wouldn't understand anything but  I still wanna know  why?"

"I'm  really sorry "

"I wanna  go to bed now "

That  night Minjun slept while clinging onto  Jin  tightly. He would always  run to him  if anything goes  wrong. Jungkook slept with Minho in his room. Taehyung  was sleeping on the couch in the living room.

"Papa, Junie is sad "Minhowhispered.

"How would you know? "Jungkook asked.

"I can  feel  it.Should we go to him? "
