The Kissing Booth : Fallout [Completed] ✅

Chapter 13

TAEHYUNG

I finally raised my eyes to look at my family. Papa was still crying softly and appa looked mad as hell. Jimin looked at me apologetically. I knew I had messed up but I'm an adult and I need my own space too. It was time my family realised this.

"Are you okay baby? Please tell me he's not hurting you."

"It's not like that papa. I know this looks bad but believe me when I say, Dr Kim isn't doing anything that I don't want him to do. Yes, he's older than me but I don't care. All that doesn't matter to me."

"Is he your boyfriend baby?" Papa asks me and I nod in the affirmative.

"He is papa. And I'm living with him because I want to."

"Why do you call him 'master'?" It's my appa. I knew I would have a problem with him. He raised me and I know he's feeling rather disappointed and angry at me now.

"It's complicated appa. And I don't know how to explain this to you all." I wring my hands in frustration as papa strokes my hair.

"Is he your 'dominant'?" It's my twin brother Jimin. My parents hiss at his question while I look away.

"Answer your brother Taehyung!" Appa insists and I nod my head. Fresh tears adorn my papa's cheeks and I hope the earth would open up and envelope me like a demon devouring its prey.

"Please papa, don't cry. It's not as bad as it seems. I agreed to all this knowingly."

"Our son is in a dom/sub relationship with our best friend that we've known our whole lives, and you expect us to be okay with it? Are you crazy Taehyung?" Appa asks me.

"Did you sign a contract Taetae?" Jimin asks me and I nod again.

Papa falls to the couch, holding his head in his hands, while appa rubs his back in a soothing manner.

"I want that contract Taehyung! I'm going to get you a lawyer to get you out of it," appa insists.

"But I have a lawyer and I signed the contract without any force."

"What do you know Taehyung? Who's your lawyer?"

"Kwon Yeunjin. He explained everything to me and I signed it of my own free will. Appa, please trust me. I know what I'm doing."

"I know that lawyer. He's pretty good. Did Namjoon give you the lawyer? How did you afford him?"

I looked down. "Yes. Dr Kim arranged for him and he paid him."

"Then you cannot trust him. Look Taehyung, I know you think you know what you're doing but this kind of lifestyle is not for you. Let's go home for a few days so we can discuss this better. I don't think you were in the right frame of mind when you agreed to this."

"Appa, don't you think it's time I lived my life by my own terms? I'm not a baby anymore. I know you care for me but you have to allow me to make my own decisions."

My appa hissed in frustration. And I looked to Jimin for help. Papa was still tearing so I sat next to him and held him close.

"I love you papa. Please don't cry. I'm really fine. He doesn't hurt me. In fact, he takes really good care of me. Please accept our relationship."

"Are you using protection baby?" My papa asks me and I nod in the affirmative. "I can't believe you're not a baby anymore. I'm just so overwhelmed by all this."

"Taehyung, are you on the pill?" My appa asks me and I look away embarrassed. "Taehyung! Answer me! You know very well why I'm asking this!" He's super angry now.

"What's going on love?" My worried papa looks at appa, confused.

I watch as my father cards his hands through his hair in frustration. "Does he know Taehyung?" I shake my head in the negative and he hisses. "You should not have hid it from him, especially since you're in a sexual relationship. He has a right to know, even though I don't approve of any of this." My appa concludes.

"What is your father talking about baby boy?" Namjoon comes to stand next to me. He circles my waist with his arm and I look down, afraid to make eye contact with him. "I was hoping you would be done now baby."

I know my family are watching us intently but I don't know how to respond to Namjoon. I'm so conflicted right now.

"Master, we need to speak privately."

"No Taehyung! You will speak now, in front of us all. Tell him the truth now!" I flinch at my appa's words but I pull myself together and squeeze my brother's hand. He rubs it reassuringly.

"All of you, please sit. There is something that you all should know."

Namjoon quirks an eyebrow but sits down without comment. I begin nervously.

"I-I'm a ...... I'm a carrier like my papa." Namjoon's eyes go wide and Jimin and papa almost fall off their seats. I surge ahead when my appa nods imperceptibly. "When I was 12, I had an incident of bleeding. I thought I was haemorrhaging but appa and eomma rushed me to the emergency room. It was discovered after some tests, that I was menstruating. It happened once and it happened a few months ago again."

"Why didn't you tell me it happened again Taehyung?" Appa asked me.

"I handled it appa. It was just 4 days and I was fine again."

Papa got up and held me tightly. "I'm sorry baby. It's because of me. I'm an abomination and I made you one too." Papa cried even more now.

"You're not papa! Please don't say such a thing. Just because we have a womb and can carry a child, doesn't make us abominations. This is how we were created. We are blessed papa. Just look at Jimin and I. Do you regret us, and Seoyeonie?"

"No baby. I don't ever regret any of you. I just wish you didn't have to face this like I had to."

I held him tightly and looked up to lock eyes with my master. I couldn't read his expression and it scared me. Jimin came over and joined our hug. I watched as my appa and Namjoon exchanged a look.

"Baby boy, I think we have much to speak about," Namjoon says and I nod.

My parents realise it's their cue to leave and they soon make their goodbyes reluctantly. I hug my brother tightly and promise to visit them all soon. I miss Seoyeonie too.

When I close the door and turn to face my master, his expression is unreadable but his intent is quite clear as he extends his hand out to me and pulls me toward his playroom.
