Beneath Your Beauty (Vmin)

Twenty

Jimin went to meet Taehyung at one of those posh restaurants that had little or no customers. Taehyung was seated at the back of the restaurant and Jimin walked over to him with a straight face. Taehyung looked at him as he sat opposite him, crossing both his legs and arms

"So, what do you want?" he demanded.

Taehyung just grinned. "Let's order something first before we begin the discussion" he said.

Jimin just rolled his eyes as Taehyung signalled to a waiter who hurried to their table. He just ordered some drinks. This was no time to eat. You don't eat with a foe but you can still drink with them.

The waiter went to get their drinks and Jimin narrowed his eyes at the other.

"Once again, what do you want?" he asked.

"You know what I want Jimin" Taehying said off handedly as he produced a piece of paper from his inner jacket and placed it at the middle of the table.

Jimin glared at it. "What's this?"

He scoffed. "Is this another one of your ridiculous contracts?"

Taehyung didn't answer and that was just enough for Jimin who laughed "It is isn't it? You're ridiculous!"

Taehyung frowned. "We are adults and I don't want to fight with you regarding the custody of my son so I suggest you read that contract" he said with a stern expression on his face.

Jimin clicked his tongue and opened the paper. He read the contents and once done, threw it harshly on the table.

"What's this? This only benefits you!"

"You won't do it?"

"Hell no!" he screamed causing the other customers and staffs to stare at them. He gathered deep breaths to calm down and turned to Taehyung with clenched teeth.

"You don't expect me to follow this do you?"

He picked up the paper and held it to his face while he read it out loudly.

"Park Jimin will surrender rights of the child to Taehyung for a year. He will be accorded visitation rights."

He threw it back on the table again.

"Bullshit!"

That moment the waiter returned with their drinks pretending like he wasn't interested in their conversation before he left and Jimin took a gulp of his drink.

Taehyung sighed tiredly "It's only right Jimin. You've been with the boy all his life and I didn't even know he was my son until yesterday. I need to bond with him. I need him to know about me too. Really, one year isn't enough!"

Jimin rested his elbow on the table putting up a fake smile on his face. "How about we do this the other way round? I keep my child and you visit from time to time so you can bond with him"

He had a sarcastic look on his face.

"You're really going to make things difficult for me aren't you?"

Jimin nodded and Taehyung sighed running his hands through his hair.

"I know you hate me and I don't blame you..."

He paused. "Actually, there are things you don't know. Things it's better you stay away from?"

Jimin scoffed "You're just making stupid excuses so that I can have mercy on you. Sorry, that's not going to work!"

He leans across the table so that Taehyung could hear him clearly.

"Even if you crawl on your knees and beg, I'll never give Mintae to you. Never!"
