Jin. Slumped in deep dejection, his unpleasant experiences scarred him for life. He thought he wasn't capable of falling in love, but he was wrong. He fell in love with Taehyung. A man twice his age, married and husband of the man he wanted to seek...

"It has begun," Jungkook took a glance at Taehyung. He raised his index finger to signal for another bottle of wine. The bartender gladly placed another bottle and removed the emptied one.
Taehyung tried to keep his tears behind his eyes. Something he was an expert at doing. "Crazy right? Sometimes love isn't always enough. I'm not blaming anyone but myself. I have a choice but I chose the wrong one. I can break it up, I should have a long time ago, but I don't know what's wrong with me and I cannot turn my back."
"Kids. You love the kids," Jungkook said. Of all the people around Taehyung, he's the only one who always says the right words no matter how hurtful it would going to be. For once, he knew that it's a mistake. "Maybe, just do it for the kids."
Taehyung chuckled. He could not believe he would hear something like that from the known playboy and anti-marriage man.
"I know you will judge me. I know I got involved with too many but at least, I'm not married. That's different."
"I knew you're going to say that. It seems I am wrong to have been married, is that the right way to say that?" Taehyung sipped one more, emptying the glass.
Jungkook scoffed. He always tells Taehyung how lucky he is for not experiencing the pains of marriage. And now, he considered himself even more fortunate. "Have you considered doing counseling?"
Taehyung laughed sarcastically. Shaking his head. "I've been thinking about that. I know what's happening isn't healthy. I always find fault in everything Jimin was doing. While he kept on improving himself for me. I don't know how to break it. Or if I have guts to tell him I cheated."
Jungkook let out an insulting laugh, "You have the guts to cheat, but are scared to get caught. How ironic, isn't it?"
"Cheaters are always afraid to get caught."
Jungkook nodded his head and pour the red liquid on Taehyung's glass, dropping some ice. "Because your happy days would be over. Admit it or not, for you, Jin is just a backup."
Silence followed. Taehyung understood what he's doing. He knew that having Jin while he's still married was a mistake. But deep inside, he didn't want to call it a mistake. "I met Jin at the wrong time. How I wish he was born earlier or I was born later. He's perfect. He has no inhibitions. He's independent. He knows what he wants and how to get it. He is strong-headed. He deserved someone better than a stupid weak married man."
"You like him."
"Who wouldn't?"
Jungkook smiled in agreement. Jin caught his eyes the first time he saw him but he also noticed that Taehyung is interested so he gave up.
"Why did it even come to this?"
Taehyung shrugged. He placed his face in his hands as he thinks about his choices and the choices he made in the past. He knew that if he was brave enough then, perhaps, his life was more different now.
