Hello! I apologize for updating late and so slow. Online class is cracking my sched. Btw, here's the chap :)

"What?" Taehyung asks ".. You don't have to. I-I.. I can buy my own foods. I have money," he lies but the latter just ignores his excuse.

"Point your house, Taehyung. I'll follow," he smiles, ".. I'm sure your family will be glad to see these foods. I'm so excited!" Jungkook giggles.

"But Jungkook—"

"I take no buts, Tae. Just let me. I wanna help," Taehyung doesn't want to argue with his new friend but he also doesn't want to let him go to his house. Aside from their house is just too small and narrow, stinky and stenchy, he doesn't want his father see him, being afraid of what action he might do. Jungkook isn't there yet he feels ashamed already.

"Is that your house?" After minutes, Jungkook's still keeps on asking questions on where Taehyung lives. Pointing random houses that is actually far from Taehyung's home design. Taehyung shakes his head, ".. are we near?" Jungkook asks. Taehyung nods his head.

"Really? Are your parents there? Do you have siblings?" Taehyung lightly bit his lower lip before he nod. ".. that's great! I hope these foods are enough. But how about we buy those street foods too? I think they will love it too!" Taehyung widen his eyes and shook his head, disagreeing.

"You don't have to! These are much. I-it's enough. Don't spend any penny just for us. You're just wasting them," he says and avoids eye contact.

Jungkook plasters a frown on his face. He completely disagree on what Taehyung has said. It's not a waste if he spent it to help. However, he doesn't want an argument.

Seconds after, a beep of a vehicle greets the two youngs. The tidy white car stops beside them, making the two halt in confusion as well. The window slides down and there they saw a man in personal guard polo, greeting Jungkook with a wide smile.

"Young master!" The guy in the luxurious car greets Jungkook with his wide smile. As the unknown man registered Jungkook, the kid's smile grew and greet the man back. "Uncle Han!"

Jungkook's so-call uncle, Han cackles. "You broke the deal, bunny. You will be punished because of that," Han squints his eyes, scaring the kid but instead, Jungkook laughs.

"You can't do that," he says, laughing.

"Why not, young master?"

"Because you can't resist me!" Jungkook showed off his tounge and laughed.

"Nope. I won't take your wish you've requested earlier because you didn't wait me on the premise we promised. I was worried about you! Your Dad will surely punch and fire me when he knew I lost you," Han states which brings Jungkook a cute frown.

"Daddy won't fire you! He knows what I would do if he does. And it's fine though, Uncle Han. Dad will buy it for me if you won't," Out of place, Taehyung feels insecured as he watches Jungkook and his uncle having a funny talk. He never laughed like that before when he talks to his dad. He never felt happy surrounds him either. Whenever they match their gazes, the terrifying glare of his father never fails to make Taehyung dither in anxiety which brought him trauma at every bruise and wounds he gets and every whip and obnoxious touch he receives.

"Uncle! I met a new friend," Jungkook announced and pulled Taehyung closer. Han scans the poor boy which makes Taehyung grows uncomfortable. He stoops his head and looks at the ground, retracting eye contact.

"New friend?" Han asks. Jungkook nods.

"Yes! His name is Taehyung," Han witnessed how happy his dear is when the kid mentioned the name. ".. and we're about to go to his house— "
