Can I Call You Appa?

Ch. 24

Jin POV

"DADDY!!!! DADDY!!!!!" A tiny child wailed.

I sighed. Jungkook was starting to become a lot more vocal as the days progressed. It was the Monday before New Years and Namjoon had to go back to work. His eomma insisted on keeping the older kids and leaving us just Jungkook during the day so we can have some what of a break.

Jungkook also has been very moody because of his teething. He almost has all of his teeth but his back molers are coming in and he isn't taking it well. He's constantly crying and biting everything. I feel bad for the little guy but his screaming is very irritating.

"Daddy's here, baby. I got you don't worry." I picked him up and took him to the kitchen.

I got his teething cup and put a strawberry in it. I handed it to him and he started knawing on it happily. I set him down and he hurried off to get back to whatever it is he was doing. I leaned against the kitchen counter when something caught my eye. A jacket, not just any jacket, a woman's jacket.

It was hanging on the doorknob to the garage. I picked it up and examined it. It was small and a dark maroon color, a business jacket. I laid it over one of the chairs and started to think. Who in the hell would wear that kind of a jacket? Maybe one of Namjoon's coworkers? But why would he have one of his coworker's jackets? I'll have to ask him about it.

I looked at the time and saw it was lunch time. Namjoon should be home in an hour or so because he'll be working half days until the kids go back next week so he can spend more time with them. I grabbed Jungkook's favorite kind of mac and cheese and got started. I just made myself a sandwich and ate that while I got his food prepared. But my mind seemed to want to wonder off.

Was Namjoon cheating on me? No, he wouldn't do that. Surely after all he's been through he wouldn't do that....right? I bit my nails nervously. Was I not good enough for him? Was it because I wasn't a girl? Did I gain weight? Was I not attractive enough to him anymore? So many thoughts were going through my head.

I mean I cooked, we split the housework, we split taking care of the kids, I try my best to please him when I can, I do his laundry, I take care of him when he's sick, and I remind him everyday how much I love him. Was it not enough? Ah, he can't be cheating on me or else he would smell like a woman. He could be doing it at work and just changing there...No! Seokjin shut up! He wouldn't do that, he loves me! Or...does he?

I shook the thoughts from my head got Jungkook his lunch. After that I gave him some medicine to soothe his gums and put him down for a nap. I cleaned up his toys and laid down on the couch. I felt myself drift off to sleep.

I woke up sometime later when I heard angry muttering coming from the kitchen. I yawned and stretched, walking in. Namjoon was aggressively cleaning dishes and muttering underneath his breath. He must've had a bad day today because he never does the dishes. He's always too afraid of breaking them.

"Hey babe. When did you get home?" I asked, stretching my back.

"Why was the kitchen dirty?" He asked.

"Oh, sorry. Jungkook's teeth are bothering him so he's been screaming a lot today. I put him down for a nap and then I must've fallen asleep." I explained, laying my head on his back.

He shrugged me off and wiped his hands, "That's no excuse. It should've been done before I got home."

I raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong with you?"

He shook his head, "Nothing. Doesn't concern you, just mind your own business."

"It does concern me because you're taking it out on me." I snapped.
