**Update as per various request**

“Continue” he said, lifting his brows slowly to glare at the two.

He was staring daggers, and they could feel the chills on their skins as the shock seeped deeper.

Jimin swallowed hard again, feeling f**king embarrassed as Jungkook gently helped him down from the table, and immediately his feet touched the ground, Jungmin stood from the couch.

“You said you were going to be at Lisa’s” Jungkook said carefully.

“I don’t wanna talk to you!” Jungmin shot and threw the popcorn bowl away.

The popcorn scattered on the ground, and he started rushing up the stairs.

“Jungmin!” Jungkook called after him, but he never looked back.

“Damnit, I never wanted him to find out this way. This is gonna hurt him so bad” Jimin said fearfully, and Jungkook gave him an assuring stroke on his hair.

“He’d be fine” he said, and Jimin sighed.

He noticed he left his phone on the couch so he went for it, and his eyes widened when he saw his chat with Lisa.

LISA: What’s up Jungmin? Aren’t you coming anymore? Mum made us chocolate cake to watch the movie with.

JUNGMIN: I dunno, I’m tired.

LISA: Tired? Jungmin Are you sick?

JUNGMIN: Maybe, my mouth is bitter and I’m running a slightly high temperature.

LISA: Tell the maids fast!

JUNGMIN: I don’t like them

LISA: Then call your father!

The chat ended there, and when Jimin came closer to check what he’s reading, he quickly turned off the screen.

“What’s wrong?” He asked, and he covered up with a smile.

“Nothing, you need to go home and rest now, I’ll…

“Go home and rest when Jungmin is mad about what he saw? No Jungkook, I can’t…

“Shh, don’t you trust me? He’d come around. I’ll handle him” he said, and Jimin looked into his eyes.

“Trust me, please just go home and relax, then we can talk about this tomorrow” he said, and Jimin nodded.

He planted a deep kiss on the top of his head, and he took him to the door, carrying his bag and phones from where they fell earlier.

He led him out of the house and Jimin faced him.

“Are you really sure he’d be fine?” I can just…

“Please listen to me this once, stop worrying daddy” he said, taking off his suit.

He covered him with it and opened the car door for him.

Jimin got in, and he gave him his bag, then the driver rushed over.

“Drive slowly, no mistakes” he told him.

“Yes sir” the man bowed shortly and got in with him, driving out of the mansion.

Jungkook sighed, feeling slightly relieved.

At least, he’s unaware of Jungmin’s sickness, that’d save him from worrying too much.

He went back in and climbed the stairs straight.

He opened the door to Jungmin’s room and found him sitting on the bed, crying slowly.

“Jungmin!” He rushed to the bed, but before he could get to him, Jungmin got down from the bed.

“You promised to introduce me to my other dad this week and you made out with Mr. Smart? What do you want my dad to think when he arrives? I hate when you get intimate with others dad and doing that with Mr. Smart will make me hate him!” He shouted tearfully.

“Jungmin listen, I need to get you to the hospital for checkup right now before the illness eats deeper into your system” Jungkook replied.

“I don’t care if it eats me completely! You’ve become a lair just like San! You told me there’s nothing going on between you two! You said you didn’t like him but you kissed him! Who kisses someone they don’t like? You lied to me and I hate it! I don’t wanna see you!” He cried again, and when Jungkook tried to hold him, he pushed him away though it was impossible because Jungkook captured him.

He made to take him out of the room forcefully, but he cried louder.

“Leave me alone I don’t wanna go to the hospital till you bring me my dad and cut your relationship with Mr. Smart! Drop me!!!” He screamed, throwing his legs stubbornly.

He was so strong that he almost fell from Jungkook’s grip, but Jungkook eventually dropped him when he sensed it won’t go well with force.

Jungmin went back to the bed in tears and lay down, covering himself completely with the thick duvet.

Jungkook sighed and watched him for almost five minutes, he could hear his sobs from under the duvet, and he feels so bad for making him this way.

He eventually left the room, and he was surprised to see Lisa climbing up the stairs.

“Lisa?” He said.

“My driver dropped me just now. Is Jungmin already in the hospital? He said he’s feeling sick” she said worriedly.

“He’s currently mad at me and is refusing to go to the hospital. He’s in” Jungkook said.

“Oh no, Is he rebelling again?” She replied, rushing into his room.

Jungkook went downstairs and met the two maids clearing up the living room already.

The popcorn, plush toy and destroyed LED lamp as a result of the fall.

“Make Jungmin his favorite honey tea, I’ll add some drugs before you bring it to him” he said.

“Sure sir” one of them replied and rushed into the kitchen.

He got his phone out of his pocket when it rang out.

It’s Jimin calling.

“Hey…

“Is he calming down now?” He cut him off.

“A little bit, but I think we have to do the introduction sooner than planned, else he’d hate us…” He replied.

“I understand”

“So… tomorrow?” He sat on the couch.

“Yeah, tomorrow, but I’m scared” he replied.

“I’ll be there, so there’s nothing to be scared about” Jungkook said.

“Jungkook are you sure?” He asked worriedly.

“Put your mind at rest, ok?” He said.

“I’ve heard you” Jimin muttered.

JIMIN’S PLACE*

“Oh wow! I was expecting to see a mansion but he lives in an apartment?” Gyuvin laughed mockingly, coming out of his old car.

“I guess he’s not destined to be rich all his life. He’s nothing but a P.A to Jeon Jungkook so I shouldn’t have expected more” he said and eventually stepped into the house.

Ann was just coming out of her apartment when he entered, and she smiled before walking to him.

“You are?” Ann asked.

“Gyuvin, I heard my friend Jimin lives here.” he replied.

“Your friend?”

“Yeah, since college” Gyuvin smiled again.

“Wait…your face is somehow familiar….I’ve seen you… Unisex Touches!” Ann said.

“Yeah, I’m one of the stylists” Gyuvin grinned.

“I knew it! Nice to meet you” Ann smiled.

Two minutes later, Gyuvin was already inside Ann’s room, seated on the sofa while looking around.

“Are you sure Jimin is still coming back tonight?” He asked.

“Of course! He never sleeps out” Ann replied, bringing him a cup of juice.

“Thanks” Gyuvin took it from her and drank.

“Is this the first time you’d be seeing him since college?” Ann asked, sitting in front of him.

“Yes, and even though we had a bad blood back then and it’s all his fault, I still can’t wait to behold him” Gyuvin replied.

“Bad blood? His fault?” Ann squinted.

“He dated my boyfriend” Gyuvin lied, and Ann gasped.

“What!”

“Yeah. We were best friends but he dated my boyfriend behind my back, and when he proposed to me on our graduation, he cut ties with me and I lost him since then”

“Dang! Jimin is worse! I thought he’s saint! He has been acting like the most high to me since he caught me with his contract hubby, but he did worse? Now I really wanna slap him” Ann said angrily.

“You slept with his hubby?” Gyuvin laughed.

“Yeah. I’ve always been curious about just how good his d**k was because everyone he brings home always scream whenever he’s banging, so I decided to try it out” Ann said shamelessly.

“And how was it?” Gyuvin smiled.

“The best I’ve ever had inside me!” Ann replied, and Gyuvin laughed.

“You’re a bad neighbor!” He said loudly, drinking from his juice.

“I didn’t expect us to click this good” Ann said.

“I guess I made a new friend” Gyuvin replied, and they exchanged numbers.

They heard a car honk outside, and Ann gave him the signal that Jimin is here.

Gyuvin left the room and rushed outside.

He met Jimin coming in already with Jennie in his arms. He went to pick him from Taehyung’s.

“Best friend!” Gyuvin shouted, and Jimin stopped on his spot immediately, his eyes widened for a while.

“Gosh! I missed you Jimin! You became much more beautiful! Is that your child? She’s so cute!” Gyuvin continued talking.

Skeptically, Jimin dropped Jennie who’s busy wondering who Gyuvin is.

“Come gimme a hug! I really missed you!” Gyuvin widened his arms.

Ann stood by the door, looking at Jimin with a new level of hatred in her eyes.

Jimin started walking to Gyuvin whose arms are still wide, and at each step he took, the scene became clearer and clearer in his memory_the proposal scene.

The clearer it got, the more refined his fury became, and when he took the eighth step, he stopped and scoffed.

“B**tch!!!!” He shouted, running the remaining distance to him.

He pounced on Gyuvin, and before a blink, he already landed two slaps on his face.

Gyuvin staggered back with bleeding lips, holding his red cheek.

Ann’s mouth came wide by the door…

“I’ve been expecting you to show up, and thanks for finally showing up, now shall we start from where we stopped? The difference is that back then I was the pathetic loser, but right now there’ll be a plot twist, you’ll lose everything” Jimin said meanly, and Gyuvin looked at him shockingly, still holding the cheek.

“You slapped me? Jimin you raised your hand on me? How dare you!!!” He ranted and started rushing to him, but he stopped when a Benz stopped in front of the house.

Angelina and Bishop came out, and they walked to the scene, standing on each side of Jimin.

“So what’s happening here? Any proper explanation?” Angelina asked, looking at Gyuvin.

“His cheek is so red, I think he applied too much blush” Bishop muttered.

“The war only just started, Jimin. You’re in trouble I swear!” Gyuvin threatened and walked to his car, driving off roughly.

“Thanks for coming, brothers” Jimin faced the two.

He actually called them on his way home.

“Are you ok? And who’s that Mr.Red cheek who just left?” Bishop asked.

“I’ll explain everything to you guys tonight, the story of my life from the beginning, but right now the most important thing is that I’m getting introduced to Jungmin tomorrow, and I need help from you both” he said.

“Finally” they both chorused with wide smiles.

AN HOUR LATER*

The guys already left after making plans for tomorrow morning with Jimin.

He had to make oatmeal for Jennie, and she slept off immediately she finished eating.

Jimin is currently in front of his mirror, thinking of how tomorrow is gonna be for real.

Is he gonna hate him for not confessing earlier? He’s expecting that and he’s bracing himself, but at the same time he’s so scared.

A new chapter of his life is gonna be opening tomorrow, and he’s anxious.

Nevertheless, he picked his pen and started writing a letter.

*

SEOKJIN’S PLACE*

Soyoon is sitting in the living room, face buried in his phone as he made researches.

He’s so engrossed that he didn’t notice when Jin got to his back.

Jin peeped into what he’s searching, and his eyes widened when he saw Jimin’s picture.

“What do you think you’re doing?” He said.

“You scared me!” Soyoon jumped.

“I’m sure I saw Jimin’s picture, you’re searching for his information now? What are you planning? Don’t you have listening ears?”

“I caught him sitting on Jungkook’s laps in his office today and his lips were on his neck. He’s the one seducing him I’m so sure” Soyoon replied.

“So what are you gonna do? Huh?” Jin retorted.

“I’m gonna dig out everything dirty about him and show it to Jungkook, he doesn’t deserve shit like him” he replied.

“If you don’t get disgraced, then I’m not Jin anymore” Jin said and walked out of the house.

“Nothing is gonna happen!” He could hear Soyoon shouting after him as he entered the car.

His phone rang, and he dropped it immediately he saw it’s Matty.

He drove out of the house to Haven Hospital, and he went straight to the reception.

“Hi, I’m here for…

“Kim Seokjin! I’m a fan! I buy every magazine you appear on! I love you and Kim Taehyung so much and the photoshoot you both did together is my favorite!” The nurse said happily.

“Thanks” Jin smiled.

“Seokjin?” Taehyung’s voice made him turn.

“Tae” he walked to him, and Taehyung took his hand, leading him out of the reception.

“What are you doing here?” He asked when they got to a closed space.

“You once told me your mum is an inpatient here, so I figured out I’d meet you here since I don’t know your address” he replied.

He kept quiet, so Jin went closer and hugged him.

“I’m sorry” he whispered, and Taehyung sighed.

“I’m not mad, we’re not dating so I have no reason to get mad” he said, and Jin broke it.

“But I already told you there’s nothing between I and the guy I went on a date with. It’s you I’m attached to” he said to his face.

“You are?” He asked.

“Yeah, so please forgive me” he said, hugging him again.

“Hug me back” he said, and his arms wrapped on him too.

“I should go see your mum” he said.

“She’s asleep, we can come tomorrow morning” he replied, and Jin tightened the hug.

“Ok”

“Let’s hang out tonight” he said, and Jin broke the hug to hang his arms on his neck.

“Take me anywhere” He said, and Taehyung smiled.

*

NEXT MORNING, JUNGKOOK’S MANSION*

“F**k! I should probably go write down today’s date! My first day at my boss’s luxurious house!” Bishop said loudly as he came in with Angelina.

They met Jimin waiting in the living room already.

“Thanks for coming” he stood.

“We’d never turn you down” Angelina smiled, and Jungkook came to the stairs.

“Goodmorning boss!” They chorused, and he replied with a nod.

He looked at Jimin, and he nodded too, so he went back upstairs to Jungmin’s room.

He has refused to talk to even Lisa, and his temperature only got hotter throughout the night because he even refused to take the drugged honey tea.

The duvet remained on his head, and he hasn’t allowed anyone to see his face.

Lisa is still in, and she shifted back when Jungkook came in.

He sat in bed with him and brought a paper out of his shorts pocket.

“Here, a letter from your dad” he said, and Jungmin threw the duvet away from his head immediately.

His pale sick face came to view, and Jungkook looks shocked as he snatched the letter from him and tore it open.

He started reading impatiently.

“Will you forgive me if you know who I really am? I’ve been beside you for sometime now, but I guess my selfishness made me keep it for that long even after seeing how much you’re craving to meet me. I’m so sorry Jungmin, please don’t hate me. I missed you, and I promise to never leave you again… Forever”

“Where’s he?” He faced Jungkook immediately he finished reading.

“Where’s he!!!” He shouted impatiently.

“In the living room, he’s waiting” Jungkook replied, and he jumped down from the bed.

He fell, but he stood immediately and ran so fast out of the room.

“Dad” he muttered, losing his breaths as he ran down the stairs.

He was already sweating when he got down only to meet Angelina and Bishop.

He looked around but no sign of anyone else.

“Where’s my dad?” He asked calmly, and they both left their spots, revealing Jimin who’s behind them.

He was already crying, and Jungmin’s eyes widened madly.

“Mine…my boy” Jimin stuttered, and his knees weakened as his eyes got wider.

Obviously, he’s beyond shocked.

“Mr…. Mr… Smart?” He muttered,. His voice breaking.

“Baby” Jimin replied, and his knees finally went sideways.

“Jungmin!!!” Jimin screamed fearfully.

His eyes went shut, and he started going down unconsciously, but thanks to Jungkook who’s behind him.

He caught him before his body could land on the ground.

“Baby I’m so sorry, please don’t be like this! Don’t close your eyes on me Jungmin!!” Jimin started crying loudly, rushing after him as Jungkook carried him out of the house in his arms.

He literally jumped into the car with his limp body, and Jimin hopped in hurriedly too, still crying like a baby.

The car screeched crazily out of the house.
