The Family Man

Three

(I don't know if I explained or not, but when he woke up in Jin's bed it wasn't Xmas like it was in his other life. It is almost Xmas but not yet. Also, this is the final chapter of this book. I said it would be really short.)

As Tae figured out what his job entails and with help from Jungkook, he managed not to ruin things. When he went home that night, he saw Jin in the kitchen making dinner.

As soon as he walked in, Jin ran into his arms and kissed him deep. Knocking the air out of Tae's lungs.

"How was work baby?" Jin asked him. He leaned back but kept his arms around his neck.

Tae decided he would go with the flow for however long it lasts and enjoy every second.

So he held Jin tightly at his waist and rubbed their noses together and replied, "It was fine, same as always. How about you?"

Jin then pulled himself away and walked back towards the stove to continue with dinner.

"I had a tough one today. I had a very young girl come in with her small baby with barely any clothes on. She looked about 15 years old and she asked us to please take her baby in so he could get adopted.

It was so sad, I tried so hard to get her to stay so she could also get proper winter clothing and food and shelter. At least for the night, but she cried so hard, because she didn't really want to give up her baby. She just knew that she couldn't take care of him.

We took the sweet baby a bath and dressed him in clean clothes and when he saw his mother walking away from him, he nearly knocked over the nurse to try to reach her. He cried for so long, until he finally fell asleep exhausted. I tell you, it was heartbreaking and I am so glad to be home."

Tae listened to him and he remembered that he always wanted to be a social worker, so he could help people who couldn't help themselves. So that must be what he works as now.

"I'm sorry babe, I know that you wish you could help everyone. But you know it's not possible. So try not to think about anything work related while you're at home, ok?"

Jin sniffled, but he nodded. And when Tae hugged him from behind he told him, "I am so lucky to have you as a husband. Ever since you chose me over going to London, I knew how much you really loved me. And I vowed to make you never regret your decision."

Tae squeezed him tight and kissed his cheek.

"I would never regret marrying you sweetheart. I love you so much. After all these years, you still take my breath away."

Jin turned in his arms and gave him a peck on his lips.

"I love you with every bit of my soul Kim Taehyung. You and the boys are my entire world."

Tae's heart did a pitter patter and he felt content. No, he was happy. He had the man he's loved for years, because let's face it. He has never stopped loving Jin. And living this life makes him regret that he did actually leave for London.

He wants to live this life as long as possible. But with how ominous the lottery ticket guy sounded, this life could disappear without a moments notice.

Jin called the boys to the dinner table and they sat around to eat. The older boy still continues to stare at Tae but he brushes it off.

Jin feeds the baby and Tae watches them interact. The baby then looks at Tae and reaches out for him.

That surprises him and he was going to try to pick him up but Jin stopped him.

"Taetae, he needs to finish his dinner. I know he wants you but he needs to eat."
