The next day, Taehyung was up and rolling even before the chicken's first cookuh. The pack house was filled with silence as no one had woken up yet. Taehyung's wheelchair was always placed right beside his bed so he never found much trouble in getting on it. That's how he was now venturing around the pack house in search of his favourite human being.

Taehyung knew his way around by now but he had never been to anyone's room. He was always more keen on inspecting aka breaking all the objects that he never paid much attention to the wooden doors on the corridor. But after seeing his beautiful room that he will soon own he was suddenly very curious to find out what was behind the other doors. He was extremely excited to see the same pretty purple flowers on the wall. So he tried to open the first door on his way. When it didn't open the first time he tried again. This time with more power. Soon there were loud noises of banging in the previously silent building which eventually woke up the owner of that room. The owner being Jeon Jungkook.

He frustratingly got up from his bed as he stormed towards his door, ready to lash out at the person who woke him up at this hour of the day. But his words were caught in his throat when he saw Taehyung.

"What are you doing here? Why are you up so early? Most important of all why are you banging at my door?" Jungkook asked Taehyung but he just ignored him and went inside. He was left a bit disappointed when he didn't see the same flowers on the wall but a small iron man figurine soon caught his attention. Before his hand could even touch it Jungkook grabbed it and held it up in the air.

"There's no way you're touching it. That's my priced possession." Jungkook said hugging the figurine close to his chest. Taehyung tried to take it from him as he pulled at his tshirt in order to bend Jungkook down.

"No you're not getting it!" Jungkook exclaimed as he placed it on top of a shelf. This made Taehyung sad as his lower lip started to wobble, indicating that he was about to cry.

"Hey, hey! That's blackmail. You can't pull that trick all the time." Jungkook said, visibly panicking. So he hastily picked up a body sculpture sqeeze ball from the shelf and showed it to Taehyung.

"Look at this! See, sqeeze it like this and look how its form changes!" Jungkook explained enthusiastically and it actually worked as the ball perked up his attention. He took it from Jungkook's hand and started squeezing it, forgetting all about the figurine.

Jungkook then pushed Taehyung's wheelchair and made their way to the hall.

"Why are you up so early?" Jungkook asked him but Taehyung just showed him the squeeze ball as he kept squeezing it.

"Yeah I see that but why did you wake up so early?" Jungkook tried once again as he laid on the bed and closed his then got up yawning. Taehyung replied this time as he closed his eyes for a few seconds then shook his head.

"What? You don't like sleeping?" Jungkook asked, scrunching his eyebrows. Taehyung didn't reply as he started looking around . He then placed the ball on his lap and started going somewhere. Jungkook followed suit, not wanting him to destroy something again.

Taehyung stopped right in front of a table and picked up the belt that was placed on it. He held one end of it and lightly hit Jungkook using it.

"Hey don't be bratty! You can't hit me." Taehyung ignored him as he closed his eyes and hit him again after opening them.

"Y-You dream about getting hit with a belt? You get nightmares? That's why you don't like sleeping?" Jungkook asked him as his eyes widen in shock. Brushing his hand against his hair, he ran towards Namjoon's room and started banging his door abruptly.

"What the fuck! Why are you banging at my door? What happened?" Namjoon shouted after coming out of his room. Jungkook didn't reply as he grabbed his hand and ran back towards Taehyung.

"I asked him why he was up so early. So he did this which I believe means that he didn't like sleeping. I asked him why he didn't like sleeping, so he hit me with a belt after closing his eyes for a few seconds. This means he gets nightmare about getting hit with a belt right? That means someone used to torture him. With belts and whips. That explains the scars too." Jungkook spoke all at once.

"Although it's too early for my mind to work but I do get your point. What you're saying, has a high chance of being true which is not a good thing. Even though he must believe it himself that he's safe here, his mind still isn't trusting us completely. Today he woke you up but we have no idea since how long he's been waking up so early. Not having proper sleep is not healthy. We need to do something about it." Namjoon said taking a seat on Taehyung's bed.

"I know what we can do. We can just kill the person who did this to Taehyung and then we'll show his dead body to him. Once he sees that he's no longer alive to harm him, everything will be alright." Jungkook suggested with a sinister smile on his face.

"A brilliant idea indeed. But there's a small problem that we don't know who this man is or where he is. We don't even know who Taehyung is. So yeah sadly we can't execute your plan." Namjoon said leaning back on the bed. Jungkook rolled his eyes at that and turned to look at Taehyung who was back to playing with the ball.

"By the way Namjoon. Check this out. He responds to his name now. He knows his name is Taehyung." Jungkook said before calling out Taehyung's name.

"Taehyung!" Taehyung actually responded as he turned to look at Jungkook with a smile on his face. He then started advancing towards him.

"That's a good progress." Namjoon said a smile.

"It is. My Taehyung is so smart." Jungkook complimented him patting his head.

"My huh?" Namjoon teased with a smirk. Jungkook immediately looked away as he fake coughed.

"What the duck is wrong with you guys. Why are you making so much noise so early in the morning?" Jimin said entering the hall with Chimmy in his arms.

"Taehyung probably gets nightmares so he woke up early. Ultimately waking up everyone in the house." Jungkook explained. Taehyung looked up at Jungkook once he heard his name but his eyes went wide once they fell on Chimmy. He started making excited noises once he saw the little baby. He stretched his hand out and made grabby hands, wanting to hold the baby.

"I would love to let you hold her but I'm sure you don't how to hold babies. I can't risk her safety Taehyung. But I'll let you have a closer look." Jimin said he bent down with Chimmy in his arms. Taehyung stuck out his pointer finger and gently touched Chimmy's cheeks with it. He excitedly turned to Jimin when he saw her smiling.

"You've probably seen a baby for the first time. You call them baby. A baby." Jimin said repeating the word for Taehyung to learn.

Taehyung was fondly touching Chimmy's face as tears started brimming in his eyes. He bent down to kiss Chimmy's forehead as he tried to take her from Jimin.

"I-I can't let you hold her. You'll drop her. Sorry Taehyung." Jimin said as he soon stood up. They were all shocked to see Taehyung crying so suddenly. But what happened next, shocked them even more.

Taehyung muttered his first word.

"Ba..by. B-Baby." Taehyung called out placing a hand on top of his stomach.

"Baby. Baby." Taehyung kept repeating as he looked down at his stomach. The three of them couldn't believe what Taehyung was trying to say.

"You have a baby?"
