Unique Laila

I wake up friday morning two weeks after the separate with taehyung and the whole korea already knew about our divorce and there is a lots of hate been thrown at me. It still feels very surreal waking up each morning without his arms around me.

Sometimes i almost can't even gather the strength to get up and live my days but i want to try to move on as a single mom now. Need to get use to it.

After a few minutes of just laying there on the bed my cellphone rings from the night stand and i answer it without checking the caller ID , so I'm surprised when i hear taehyung mother voice on the other line.

"Unique , its me taehyung mother" I heard her now stoic voice , remembering how it used to be so warm when she speaking with me

"Mom? Why are you calling? I thought you didn't want to talk to me"

Ever since the news dropped accused me  cheating with her younger son. She never tried to call me or talk to me since then , make me believe she on taehyung side too. Well , it is her son after all.

"Is it true? You're having a son?" She asked getting right to the point and avoiding my questions.

"Yeah i am..." I answer hesitantly afraid of her reaction

She stays quiet for a long moment until finally saying something.

"I would like to speak with you in person"

No congratulations. No how have you been feeling. No nothing , just the stoic voice that is so foreign to me coming from her. Again , what did i expect? Taehyung is her son.

This isn't the family i know and love , this is someone else.

After a moment i respond

"Sure when?"

I'm still hopeful that maybe if she can really see me then she can see how much i love taehyung and will never cheat on her son.

"How about the private cafe on fourth street , in a hour?"

"Alright I'II be there"

She hang up just like that and i sighed

I stay umoving for a few minutes just wondering what she will want to talk about , because by now i can see that it isn't going to be about asking how i've been.

She hasn't cared for me since the news dropped. She stopped sending food to me too.

I rubbed my belly and see my baby moving around and i smile

'Damn , you surely will be so active huh'

I talk to myself while rubbing lovingly my belly. I really can't wait to see you.

LATER THAT DAY

Forty five minutes later I'm being seated at the little cafe and eat. I've been craving lots of things lately and 5 minutes later taehyung mother get there

I get up to try and hug her but she goes straight for her seat ignoring me completely , i take a deep breath and try not to let her see my disappoint in my eyes.

"I need to hurry cause i don't want to be seen with a whore wife of my son in public"

Dang , that shit hurts

"So i will just keep straight to the forwards unique"

I just looked at her and try to hold my tears so bad. I never thought words like that would leave her mouth one day

"Is it true you have a son?"

"Yeah , how did you found out"

"I found out the day you signed the divorced paper. Taehyung told us"

"is it taehyung's?"  She asked

"Of course! Mom! You know me , i would never cheat on taehyung. I never even using his card if you want to point me being a gold digger. I love him for who he is"

I said and she just showing non expression towards me

"If it isn't taehyung child , it must be jungkook. No matter who the father is , that thing inside of your stomach will be my grandchild. I'm so disappointed in jungkook."

She said and her words really make me hurts

"I will send you to america and live your life as a single mom there. I will let uncle fred give you a job"

"You want to send me to other country?"

I ask astonished by how far she will go to save the family name

"Do you really want to be a burden unique? I'm not giving you a choice , I'm giving you an order now"

"But my parent-"

"They're agreed. And they wished a daughter like you would never come back. Such a shameful towards the family name. You've embarassed the family unique. Instead of being difficult maybe you should just disappeared. It's better , imagine how hurt my son is if you stay close to him and he can run into you anytime"

She said and take out a money and a flight ticket and throw it at my face

"A money for your taxi. Make sure my family will not see your face again and never dare to show up in front of taehyung. Be ready , the flight at 10 in the morning"

She said and walked out from the cafe as my tears falls after threatened them for the whole time. I can't believe my own family did this to me. My own husband did this to me. They don't even have trust in me aren't they?

I wiped my tears and took out my phone and pressed jungkook number

"Unique?"

"Jungkook..." I sobbed

"Are you okey? Where are you?"

"Jungkook please... Take me out from here.."
