''You have two days.''


The voice on the other line said. I froze in one place. I didn't even have to ask who it was because I knew exactly who it was. There wasn't a single thought about who else it could be.

The line went silent after those words were said. The purpose of the call must have been just that. And I'm glad about it. I wasn't in the mood to fight for my family's life again.

But saying I have two days could only mean one thing.

I have to visit my father in two days.

I have to admit, I forgot the whole thing for a while. The fight between Y/n and I didn't give room for other thoughts. But now it's fresh in my mind again. They want me to visit him as soon as I can. And I know they're not kidding.

What makes this harder is that I promised her to be more present with the kids. I promised her to be by her side from now on. Take time off from work and stay home. How in hell I'm going to leave without giving an explanation of a ''sudden work'' errand.

Even if I didn't want to look my father in the eyes again, I had to. I had to do it for this family. I'm sick of his bullshit. I'm sick of his games even behind bars. He isn't going to stop. Only dying stops him.

But knowing him, even that wouldn't stop him from killing her and hurting me the most.

I need to figure something out. I hate lying to her, but if things get messy, I need to tell her the truth. I cannot let her out of the house with the kids if it does. Leaving kids in kindergarten would be a risk, too.

And how do I explain that if I suddenly burden her with taking them there?

If only my hyungs were on my side. I might have to call them again. About tonight's call too. They're my helpers, they always have been. I hate to drag them down with me too. I wouldn't want to, but I know they're in it too.

Because they're part of my family, and my father wants to hurt me by putting every single one down until I'm left alone in pain and sorrow.

''Jungkook?'' I heard her soft voice behind me before I felt her wrapping her arms around my waist and leaning her head against my back. ''Why are you standing here? What was the call about?''

I must have been in my own thoughts longer than I thought. She must have been waiting for me and thinking where I was when the time passed.

''Ah, it was just a wrong number. I'm sorry to keep you waiting,'' I turned around to face her and planted a soft kiss on her forehead. ''Now let's go.'' I turned her around and pushed her towards the stairs. I need to be present for her.





The morning came like a wave, and without knowing it, I was playing outside with the kids. It was the late autumn, so soon it should be snowing. Y/n left early in the morning. She once again went to the school's library to study in peace. We drove her off there, which I wanted even though she had her own car.
