A Way To Your Heart ✔

Chapter 10

Taehyung was lazily lying on his bed, eating some snacks while scrolling through his phone and some random music playing from the speaker. It's already been 5 days since the day he sprained his ankle and he had been enjoying his daily life being taken care by Jungkook all these days. In the name of his sprained ankle, he let Jungkook do all the works including the household courses while all he did was just lying on the bed, eating, playing some games and that's all.

"Taehyung, I got some work in the company and I have to go now. So don't move around carelessly. There won't be anyone to help you if you fall down."
Jungkook peeped through the door.

"Now?"
Taehyung looked out at the window.
"But it's getting dark."

"I know. But I have to go. I've been taking half day leaves for so many days because of you. Of course I must have so many works to do. Just pray for me to come back early so that you won't starve here alone."

Taehyung rolled his eyes as Jungkook closed the door after he left. But it was still true that he might starve if Jungkook doesn't come back early to cook for him.
Just after he made sure Jungkook has already left the house, he jumped down from the bed and ran around his room freely. Because of course it was tiring to lie on the bed all the time when his ankle was already fine. But he just acted like he couldn't even stand with his feet in front of Jungkook just to let the other do every work for him.
To be honest, this was not the life he wanted to live, like... being taken care of him by someone, someone else doing his works and him lying around doing nothing productive. He never wanted to live depending on others because that was what he did all his life and that was the reason he chose to marry Jungkook just to get rid of them and live independently without anyone's help. But why he enjoyed when Jungkook help him? Why he liked watching Jungkook do every work for him? Why he felt happy when Jungkook come back early from his work just to take care of him? But he never thought about the answers of these questions or did he just ignored to answer them? But whenever Jungkook was around, he felt annoyed with no reason, maybe because Jungkook always tease him or irritate him by saying something... or does he feel annoyed because Jungkook always say something opposite to what he expected him to say? But even if he felt annoyed or irritated, he would never admit the calmness he felt whenever Jungkook was around and will never accept that some part of his heart still want Jungkook to take care of him.

Taehyung turned the volume of his speaker and jumped around in his room trying to stretch his stiffened body happily until his door open again. And guess who was standing by the door?
Taehyung stopped all his actions and stood there like a statue with his mouth and eyes wide open just when he saw Jungkook by the door while the other just stood by the door staring at him up and down without saying anything.

Taehyung suddenly held his ankle and started to act like it was painful.
"Ah... aahh... ouch... it hurts... oh my god... it's so--"

"I saw it already. Your acting is still worst. I told you to improve your acting skill."
Jungkook cut him off as crossed his arms.
"And yeah... It's the wrong foot."

Taehyung looked down to see the foot he was holding and obviously he was holding the wrong one. He felt like he was just caught red handed for stealing something from someone's house.
"Why... why did you come back again?"
He even stuttered because why not when the glare from Jungkook was piercing through him.

"I came back because I left my phone but never thought I would attend a dance show here."
Jungkook said as he rest his back on the door, still crossing his arms.

Taehyung just stood there, lost of words. He flinched when Jungkook took his steps closer to him.

"Now tell me since when you're able to walk properly?"
