"Jungkook, why are you getting yourself involved in this matter?" Taehyung asked.

Jungkook shrugged his shoulders, "Y/n came to me asking for my help, I couldn't refuse her."

"She asked for your help?" Taehyung clenched his fists, "You shouldn't have helped her here, Yeonjun said it was Soobin who did it. You and I both know Soobin. That is possible."

"He is my brother but I know when he is lying and when he is not." Jungkook said.

"So you are the one who told Y/n about the footage?" Taehyung steps closer to Jungkook.

"I didn't, she knows about it through an old friend I think."

"Stay away from my matters, you don't need to involve yourself in my brother's matters." Taehyung exclaimed.

"Your brother? I thought we were all brothers," Jungkook replied. Taehyung didn't feel that his mother was right.

Taehyung left the living room, leaving Jungkook alone. He crossed his arms, he doesn't want to lose Taehyung. But he knows that to be with Y/n, he has to be on bad terms with Taehyung.
___

Y/n was told that Taehyung's grandma and mom are here again. She didn't want to see them but then she thought it would be best if she talks to them one last time and ends this matter.

Taehyung's grandma was so sweet, she held Y/n's hand and made her sit beside him. "How are you honey? You didn't even visit the house."

She smiled and replied politely, "Sorry,"

She can't say anything to her, so she decided to talk to Taehyung's mom in private.

"Me and Taehyung, we are no longer together. There will be no engagement." She exclaimed.

"I already have decided and prepared everything." She replied.

"I can't marry Taehyung." Y/n said. Taehyung's mom chuckled. She brings her hand near Y/n's hair.

"Of course honey, you can't marry Taehyung. I am glad you know your worth." She exclaimed. "You thought I would let you marry him? Taehyung deserves so much better. Not someone like you."

Y/n was confused, "Then what is all this fuss? Why are you even here?"

She laughed. "We talked to your parents about you and Jungkook. Mom wants you to marry him."

About her and Jungkook? They both barely started tolerating each other.

"That is ridiculous, absolute nonsense."

Y/n stood outside Jungkook's bedroom door, her heart racing with anticipation. She had come to confront him, to demand answers. She paused before entering the room.

She took a deep breath and pushed open the door. Jungkook looked up from his phone, he smiled before he quickly masked it with a neutral expression.

She walked to his room herself, but he couldn't show her his excitement.

"Y/n," he said, his voice casual. "What brings you here?"

Y/n's eyes narrowed. "Your grandma and aunt came to my house," she said, her voice firm. She walked closer to Jungkook, and he stood up. "You and I, this is so stupid. How can they match you and I?" She pointed at herself and him.  "What did you tell them?"

Jungkook shrugged, a small smile playing on his lips. "I didn't tell them anything. Maybe they just wanted to meet you."

Y/n's face twisted in frustration. "Don't lie to me, Jungkook. They came to propose an arranged marriage. I thought it was Taehyung who sent them but was it you?! Oh god Mr Jeon I will kill you! How can you even think about us like that?!"

Think about them like that? She can't even imagine the thoughts he has for her.

She suddenly holds the front of his shirt pulling him closer to warn him. It would be so wrong if he kiss her now, but he really wants to kiss her lips." But I'm telling you now, I won't do it. I hate you."

Jungkook's smile grew wider. "Really?" he teased. "You hate me?"

Y/n's face burned with anger. "Yes, I do. And I won't marry you, no matter what your family says."

Jungkook chuckled, a low, husky sound. "Relax, Y/n. I don't want to marry you either."

Y/n's eyes widened in surprise. "You don't?"

Jungkook shook his head. "No. It's my grandma who's obsessed with the idea of us getting married. She really likes you, apparently."

Y/n's face softened slightly, her anger dissipating. She looked at Jungkook, really looked at him, and saw the amusement dancing in his eyes.

"Why does she want you to marry!? Aren't you a womanizer?" She asked, and crossed her arms.

"Because I wanted to get married." He replied. "I told my grandma to help. And she thinks you are perfect for me," he leaned closer, "I agree."

She pushed him, "You agree? I was in a relationship with your cousin just a few days ago!"

He shrugged his shoulders, "That's a past tense,"

"What is wrong with you?" Y/n exclaimed and then she decided to leave.

____

Y/n walked through the front door of her house, still reeling from her conversation with Jungkook. A question popped in her head as she saw Taehyung calling her, does he know?

But as she entered the living room, she was met with chaos.

Men in rough clothing were rummaging through her belongings, tossing furniture and decorations aside. Yeji and Somi were crying while hugging their mom. Y/n's eyes widened in horror as she realized what was happening.

"Hey!" she shouted, trying to intervene. "What are you doing?"

One of the men turned to her, a sneer on his face. "You're the daughter, huh? Well, your dad owes us money. A lot of money."

"How much?" She asked and when they told her she was surprised. But she kept a straight face. "Give us some time,"

"Your father already had enough time, we will come tomorrow so you must pay us back."

Y/n's heart sank as she turned to her father, who was standing in the corner of the room, his eyes downcast.

"Dad, what's going on?" she demanded. "Why did you take a loan from these people?"

Her father looked up, his eyes filled with shame. "I had no other way, sweetie," he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "We were struggling to make ends meet. I thought I could pay it back, but..."

Y/n felt a wave of anger and frustration wash over her. Why hadn't her father told her about their financial struggles? Why had he turned to loan sharks instead of asking for help?

"Dad," Y/n walked closer and held her father's head. There was too much running in her head, her father can't be stressed right now, "You will find a way, you don't need to worry, just focus on your treatment."

"I can't get treatment right now, I need to pay my loan first. You don't know those people Y/n, they reached our house, I am worried what they will do next." He said, Y/n looked at him worried.

___

Y/n stood outside the small, rundown building, her heart racing fast. She had tracked down the loan sharks to this seedy part of town.

Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the door and stepped inside. The air was thick with smoke, and the men lounging on the couches looked up at her with interest.

Y/n's eyes scanned the room, her gaze locking onto the leader of the group. "I'm here to talk about my father's loan," she said, her voice firm.

The men laughed, their eyes mocking her. "Oh, little girl thinks she can pay off her daddy's debts," one of them sneered.

Y/n's face remained calm, but her eyes flashed with anger. "I'll pay the loan myself," she said. "You don't need to go after my father."

The men laughed again, but one of them stood up, his eyes crawling over Y/n's body. He reached out and put his hand on her shoulder, his touch making her skin crawl.

"Hey, sweetheart," he said, his voice low. "Are you willing to sell your body to us? We might be willing to forgive the loan...for a price."

Y/n's gaze turned deadly, her eyes blazing with fury. She pushed the man's hand away, her voice cold and detached. "Don't ever touch me again," she warned. "Just stop messing with my father."

The man held her hand, "What will you do huh?"

Jungkook's eyes narrowed as he watched Y/n walk out of the rundown building. He had been tracking her phone, and his heart had skipped a beat when he saw her enter this shady part of town.

He followed her, he watched everything but kept a distance. But as he entered the building, he saw the man still holding Y/n's hand.

The men looked up at Jungkook, their eyes widening as they took in his tall, imposing frame.

"Who are you?" one of them sneered.

Jungkook ignored them, his eyes scanning the room until they landed on the man who had put his hand on Y/n's shoulder. A cold, calculated anger burned in his chest. He walked closer pulling her away from the man.

Y/n stood frozen, her eyes fixed on Jungkook as he appeared in the doorway. "What are you doing here?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.

Jungkook's eyes narrowed. "What are you doing here, Y/n? What were you even thinking coming here alone at night?! he countered, his voice low and even.

But before Y/n could respond, the men interrupted, their voices rising in challenge. Jungkook's gaze flicked to them, his expression cold and unyielding.

In an instant, the room erupted into chaos. Jungkook charged at the men, his fists flying as he took them down one by one. Y/n watched, her heart racing with fear.

When the fight was over, Jungkook stood tall, his chest heaving with exertion. He pulled out a wad of cash and handed it to the leader of the men.

"Tell me the amount and if you want it all in cash or a bank transfer?" Jungkook asked.

Y/n's eyes widened in protest. "No, Jungkook, you don't have to do that!" she exclaimed. He didn't listen to her and still paid off the loan. But Jungkook ignored her, his gaze fixed on the men.

"Here's the money to pay off the loan," Jungkook said, his voice firm. Before transferring the amount."And here's some extra, for your trouble.

Jungkook turned to the man who had touched Y/n's shoulder, his eyes blazing with fury. He reached out and grasped the man's hand, twisting it until the man cried out in pain.

"You fcking filth." Jungkook's voice was low and deadly. This man dared to put his hands on her, "You should have watched they way you talked to her,"

Y/n's eyes widened in horror as Jungkook broke the man's hand, the sound of cracking bone echoing through the room. Jungkook hold the chin of the man, "You are not even allowed to look her way,"

The other men didn't say anything because their months were shut because of money. They were surprised that Jungkook paid so much money all at once.

Jungkook then took Y/n's hand and then left. He took her to his car. "Why are you even here? How do you know I was here?"

He put on her seat belt, "I didn't, I just saw you on the way and was worried because this is a shady area. Why would you even come here?"

"Why did you pay the loan? I could have done it myself!" She exclaimed.

"We are basically married so it doesn't even matter. My money is yours."

"What the fck! We are not married and we will not get married!" She exclaimed.

"Okay, I understand." He held her hand, before being it near his mouth, he kissed her hand. "You don't want to, but what can I do about it? I already made up my mind, I can't let you ruin that."
