Love is knowing that your feet carry you to a painful place, and still go anyway

Jungkook's Pov

"Because Hana loves Jungoo so much", she spoke in a childish tone and I was speechless. It had been so long hearing those words from her. I cupped her face and she showed me a wide smile.

"I love you Jungoo", she mouthed again and I couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation in my body. My heart fluttered at her words and I brushed her hairs. I kissed them softly and could hear her soft giggles. She looked so cute and I just want to kiss those lips right now.

"Please don't cry Jungoo.", she pouted and I wiped my tears. I couldn't hold them back when she blurted out those words. They say alcohol makes people speak the truth and Hana doesn't at all have good tolerance over alcohol.

"I want to kiss you", she stated, putting her lips and I was shocked. How did she read my mind that I want to kiss her so badly? I want to do it too Hana but you are drunk, I don't want to take advantage of your drunk self.

"Please kiss me", she pouted and pecked my lips. Don't make it hard for me Hana. We are in the parking place in her house. I held her by shoulders and started walking to the door of her house. She kept whining that she wants to kiss me but I didn't listen. I pressed the passcode and got her inside. I finally carried her in my arms and took her to her room.

"You don't like me right? You hate me right?", she asked with tears in her eyes. Why is she crying now?

"Hana, don't speak like that. I could never hate you.", I told her as I placed her on the bed. I removed her heels and put them aside.

"Then why are you not kissing me? You don't love me right?", she asked again crying and I held her face. I wiped her tears and sat on the bed.

"I love you Hana. And so much. I don't want to kiss you because you are drunk", I told her and kissed her forehead. Damn! I hate tears in her eyes.

"Kiss me if you love me Jungkook", she stated and snaked her arms around my neck. Gosh! I can't control it anymore. I pulled her close and pressed my lips gently on her. I could feel her hold tighten around my neck.

It felt magic feeling her lips on mine. It has been ages that we have kissed and this one will be best so far as it felt like reuniting our souls after a hard break up. I trailed my tongue inside her and my heart fluttered at the mixed scents of our breaths. The smell of alcohol is nothing when compared to the rupturing sensation inside our bodies.

I deepened the kiss as she clutched onto the hem of my shirt tightly. Tasting her mouth gave me the sweetest feeling after so long. I missed her so bad and I want to pour all my emotions inside her in this kiss. My love and the way I missed her, I want her to feel it all.

The room was all calm which is only making me hear the loud thumping of our heartbeats in sync. If time could stop at this moment, I would want to devour her all to myself. I pulled out the kiss and locked her forehead with mine.

Our irregular breaths were heard all around the room and I smiled with satisfaction. I know and now confirmed that she loves me. Well! Is there a need for that? I caressed her face and kissed her forehead. I love doing that. I love pampering her and showering her love in every way I can. She is my world after all.

"You know how much I missed you Jungkook?", she finally called with my name and I smiled at that. I raised my brows for her to continue.

"I missed you so much that I felt my life is not worth it anymore. I was dying every day for leaving you like that. I felt so pathetic to break you Jungkook", she stated with tears in her eyes. Is she sober now? It can't be. If she is sober, then she wouldn't open up like this.

"I was so mad at myself Jungkook. I am a bad wench for that. I made Kyunghee suffer because of me. She went through a lot because of me. I am such a bad person in everyone's life", she cried and I wiped her tears.

"Don't call yourself that Hana. Please", I pleaded her and she nodded. I could never tolerate herself calling bad names.

"Appa wanted me to get married to him and I can't say no to him. And thank God Baekhyun listened to me and postponed the marriage. Or else I would have been married to him by now", she spoke and I felt a sharp pang of pain in my heart imagining her with someone else.

"It pains to think that I can't have a future with you Jungkook. I wished to have little bunnies as our children but see, like always, my dreams never come true.", she smiled painfully and I pulled her close onto my lap. I positioned her such that she is seated on my lap and I have a hold over her waist.

"I was so frustrated that I even lost my job. I leaked the data by mistake on that day and they fired me. It was your birthday Jungkook and I couldn't have my mind stable. And above all of that, Appa declined to take me in his company telling me that I am useless", she cried and I hugged her. Her situation is nothing less than mine. She suffered equally to me and I feel so bad for not understanding her.

"I took many pills that day and had to get admitted to the hospital. It was so pathetic Jungkook. Life became so pathetic without you", she sobbed and I hugged her close to me. And what is she talking about? Pills?

"What kind of pills Hana?", I asked her.

"Red and yellow ones", she showed me her fingers to indicate the size of the pills.

"Life was so hard without you Jungkook. And you thought that I have moved on from you? I could never imagine the thought of moving on from you", she mouthed and I kissed her forehead. I never thought drunk Hana would be this honest.

She cried for some time and I put her close to my chest. She sobbed out loud and I rubbed her back.

"Jungkook, I feel like puking", she stated and I widened my eyes. I pulled her up and made her stand up. I hurried her to the washroom and before I could do something, she vomited. She vomited on my shirt and was not able to stand by herself.

I pulled her to the commode and she puked more. I held her hair and rubbed her back. After she completed vomiting, I took her to the sink and cleaned her face. She looks so pale and it hurts me to see her like that.

I placed her in the bathtub and turned on the flow of cold water. In the meantime, I removed my blazer and shirt and cleaned myself a bit. The tub is filled now and she looked half-conscious. The cold water will help her to clear herself. I cleaned her arms and legs and pulled her out of the water. I helped her change her dress to pajamas and carried her to the bed.

I put her close to my chest and lay beside her. It's been so long since we have cuddled each other and I can't miss this chance. She looked like an angel in my arms. My angel, I thought to myself. And suddenly I heard the door creaking sound. Who could it be?

"Hana", I sighed in relief as Eomoni entered the room. She looked at me shocked and held her hands. Shit! I don't have my shirt on. What would she think of me now? I pulled the blankets up, embarrassed.

"Is she sleeping?", she whispered and I nodded.

"Take care of her okay?", she told me and I smiled. Gosh! She didn't say anything. I am happy that eomoni trusts me with her daughter. Or else, I don't know if getting close to Hana would be possible. To be honest, had eomoni not been there, all of this would have been next to impossible.

I looked at her and kissed her forehead again. I don't think I will get another chance to adore her like this. I stayed up for some more time and drowned myself into the magic of her presence.

End of Jungkook's Pov

The next morning

"Jungkook", she called him only to be pulled closer to him. He nuzzled his nose on her shoulder and his grip on her waist tightened. She knew it was impossible to beat his muscle power. She was flustered to wake up on his naked chest. It's not like she has never seen him like that, it still makes her heart go crazy.

"Jungkook, wake up. You are crushing me", she mouthed and he opened his eyes. He then smiled at her but she showed an emotionless face.

"Ugh!", she held her head as a sudden pang of pain gushed through it. Jungkook chuckled at that and got up sitting beside her.

"That's why you should not drink much", he tapped her head and she scowled.

"What happened?", she asked him completely clueless about how she landed on the bed, and how she woke upon him, the half-naked him. And then she looked at herself and yelled freaking out.

"Did you change my dress?", she asked him and he nodded.

"I know every inch of your body so, don't be surprised. And I just gave you a light bath and changed you into pajamas. That's all. I didn't take any advantage", he stated nonchalantly and she gulped down her throat. The feeling of her being taken care of by Jungkook made her feel different.

"I know you won't", she uttered and got up from the bed.

"Did eomma come here last night?", she asked him and he nodded.

"She just came and saw you sleeping with me. So, she left", he told her and she sighed in relief.

"Why? Why did you take a breath hearing that? Is there something I don't know?", he asked her and she shook her head vigorously.

"fine then, fresh up now", he mouthed and walked out of her room. He walked to his room and got freshened up. He smiled when he is done and remembered something. Not wasting a minute, he knocked on the door of Eomoni.

"Yah! What happened now?", she asked as soon as she opened the door. He walked inside and closed the door. She looked at him weirdly.

"Did you mind stop working after sleeping with her?", she asked and he shook his head.

"I want to know something from you", he asked in a firm voice. She was surprised at his tone.

"What?", she asked and he released a breath.

"What pills does Hana take that almost made her lose her life?", he asked her without beating around the bush. The elderly woman widened her eyes at the most unexpected question.

"What pills are you talking about?", she asked stuttering.

"You are stuttering eomoni, that means you are lying.", he stated and she sighed.

"I don't know what you are talking about", she looked away and he shook his head not believing her words.

"I can help eomoni. It's about Hana. Please understand me. I need to know what happened to her in my absence", he pleaded her and the elderly woman sighed. She wanted to hide it but she knew telling him would be a better option to help her daughter.

"After we moved to Sydney, Hana had issues with sleep. She couldn't sleep properly and suffered from insomnia. One day, it became so severe that she didn't sleep a whole night. So, the doctor prescribed her sleeping pills. I know it isn't right to use them but we had no choice.", she stated, making him shocked.

He knew Hana loves to sleep in his embrace and it must probably be one of the reasons why she was attacked with insomnia.

"And what about the time she almost lost her life?", he asked her with curiosity. When he heard that she almost lost her life, his heart stopped beating for a second. It would be the most dreadful moment in his life.

"Well the day when she lost her job, she felt so depressed and her father spoke badly to her. She couldn't at all sleep. So she took the pills out of control and we had to admit her to the hospital. Thank God Kyunghee went to check on her normally and saw many pills empty in the bottle. That's how we admitted her to the hospital", she explained and his eyes glistened, listening to her story.

"That was the time my husband went to Tokyo and probably met you guys. So, he doesn't know about this. And from then I took the bottle from her and gave her the required amount", she told me and I nodded.

"eomoni, where are the pills", he asked her and she gulped down the throat. Hana would kill her if she knows that she told Jungkook about it.

"eomoni, I am serious. Where are the pills?", he asked her and she pointed at a direction. He went there and saw the bottles.

"Both of them?", he asked and she nodded still unsure if she did the right thing telling him. He took the bottles and started walking towards the door.

"One red, one yellow", she told him thinking that he would take care of it.

"I am not letting her use these", saying this he walked out of the room. Mrs. Do looked at his retreating figure in shock.

#####

"Welcome home", Jungkook greeted Kyunghee as she entered the house. Mr. Do didn't was still in Sydney so he doesn't know any of this happening. Taehyung held her and got her in. Kyunghee smiled at their ambiance.

"Omo, you both look really good", Mrs. Do exclaimed and the couple blushed.

"You never said that to us". Jungkook complained and she just ignored his words, going towards her daughter. And then a person got the luggage in. Hana just came out and was surprised to see Taehyung.

"Don't tell me that you are....."

"Staying here Hana", Taehyung completed. She looked at her mother and then at Kyunghee who was blushing.

"I was the one who asked him to stay with us. I want Kyunghee's condition to get better Hana.", Mrs. Do explained and Hana nodded.

"I don't mind that Eomma. It is good to have Taehyung in the house", Hana chimed smiling at Taehyung and he winked at her.

"You can take the room next to Jungkook", Mrs. Do stated and he nodded.

"And what about Appa?", Hana asked and Jungkook smiled.

"Why would he say no if such a handsome actor stay at our house?", Mrs. Do patted Taehyung's head and the rest smiled.

"Eomoni, it's not about handsomeness she is talking. And why do you always call him handsome? I am also handsome but you never called me that", Jungkook whined like a kid and Kyunghee laughed at that.

"I only speak truth Jungkook", Mrs. Do replied and Kyunghee laughed even more. It was a beautiful sight to Hana and Mrs. Do since it's been long she had done that. Hana was just staring at her sister's smiles and giggles.

"Eomoni", Jungkook frowned at her statement. Taehyung was holding Kyunghee all the time as if he would never want to let her go.

"Actually, I thought of telling that Taehyung will be modeling for one of our products and that he needs to be with me. I will also tell that he is my best friend and would somehow convince Mr. Do, so don't worry about that.", Jungkook mouthed and everyone else in the room nodded.

"Thank you Jungkook", Kyunghee thanked him sincerely and he ruffled her hair.

"Don't thank me Kyunghee. I would do anything for you. Didn't I promise you I will make you meet him?", he raised his brow and she nodded.

"I don't have to thank you but still ...", Taehyung mouthed and hugged Jungkook.

"Umm it feels like a drama now", Jungkook spoke in between the hug and everyone smiled.

"Then I am the main lead then"
