|28| Drunk


You immediately opened the door letting all your anger out on your husband who made you wait for you the whole night and now showed up at 3 in the morning.

" where the heck were you? huh?! Do you even know how much I tried calling you??! What were you even doing?!" You let it all out while his head was still laying low such that you couldn't see his face.

" do you even know how worried I was?! I literally stayed up the whole night just to-" you halted your words when he all of a sudden lost his balance falling on top of you but you thankfully caught him by his arms. As soon as he came closer to you the strong smell of alcohol filled your nose.

" gosh, are you drunk?" You looked away in other direction scrunching your nose. He reeked of alcohol. He constantly lost his balance not knowing how to stand properly. You sighed guiding him in and making him sit on the couch.

His weight fell on the couch as his head rested on the pillows behind. His eyes barely opening and he had absolutely no control over himself. " why did you drink so much?!" You nagged taking off his shoes and socks along with his coat and the tie that was literally hanging around his neck.

You kept those aside and grabbed your phone messaging Adam that jungkook was back home.

"Jae..." you turned back to look at jungkook when he called for you trying his best to sit up straight. You kept your phone aside helping him sit up straight.

" yes, what is it?" you asked as he tried to open his eyes to look at you.
" is that you, Jae?" he asked in his drunk voice and you couldn't help but giggle a little finding it cute.

" Yeah, it's me," you said smiling. You felt jungkook's hand trying to look for yours until he finds them and holds them tightly. You just watched him. He looked at you his eyes opened enough that he could see you.

He looked like he wanted to tell you something but he couldn't find the right words. Like he had something bugging him.
" do you want to say something to me?" you asked waiting for him to speak. You pushed his messy hair back revealing his forehead. Your fingers brushing his soft cheeks as you looked at him with soft eyes.

He nodded slowly as his grip went back to your hands and got tighten. He licked his lips looking away and thinking hard.
" it's... it's tiring," he says slowly looking back at you. You frowned not understanding him.

" I....i....don't think I'm good enough. It's... hard for me." you could sense the sadness in his voice but you still couldn't get what he was saying.

"Huh? What are you talking about?" you asked cluelessly.

" no matter how much I work hard......things just won't go right." you slowly realised that it was something related to the company. you remembered Adam saying that he had a rough day at work today.

His words become heavier as you noticed his eyes getting watery.

" I....don't know what to do....." you felt your heart crumble into pieces as a drop of tear fell from his beautiful eyes.
" jungkook?" your hands escaped his grip and went to cup his face getting closer to him. He closed his eyes as more tears streamed down his eyes making you feel worried.

" w-why are you crying?" you unknowingly stuttered not liking to see him like this. He looked vulnerable and weak and you had never seen him like this. He is always the strong jungkook that can bear and do anything but this jungkook that was in front of you was the real him.

Tired and stressed. This jungkook that had many things to worry about.

" I can't do anything...." he muttered sobbing.

You slowly brought him into a comforting hug by wrapping your arms around his neck and letting him rest his head on your shoulders. Your hands playing with his hair trying to calm him down.

" no, it's not true. You can." you slowly whispered in his ears denying his words. You didn't know the whole thing but right now you just wanted to calm him and have a positive mind.

" I'm sure you can do it like how you've always. You would find a solution." you know that jungkook isn't the guy to back away so easily. He constantly tries until he's perfect at something and you couldn't believe that jungkook was saying such things to you.

He slowly wrapped his hands around your waist tightly while sobbing softly. " everything is going to be fine." you knew that these were just words and maybe jungkook is going through a lot but you could do nothing.

" I know how strong you are..." you slowly lift his face looking at him. You cupped his cheeks again and slowly wiped his warm tears with your thumb. His eyes and nose were red because of the crying.

" don't cry. I don't like it," you said honestly looking in his beautiful orbs.
" tell me what happened." you requested. You wanted him to share his worries with you. You would be grateful even if you could lessen 1% of his burden.

He sniffed trying to calm himself down till now he was quite sober.
"There is this very big foreign business deal we are working on for the past months but today an accidental fire occurred in our factory ruining most of the products that we were supposed to be sent abroad by the end of the month to move the deal further," he says.
" Thankfully, none of our workers got hurt but restoring all of the products will take almost 2-3 months and I'm afraid we will lose this deal." he sighs. You nodded understanding him. You realised how much of an important deal it was for him and his company.

" don't think like that. You can talk about things with them and let them know about your situation." you said.

" they are really in demand. They get thousands of deals every single day. Losing our deal won't give them any less." he mutters getting stressed.

You pushed your lips into a thin line holding his shoulders. " don't think about the negatives. Even if they get thousands of deals every day, not every company has the same product and quality as yours. I'm sure your company would get this deal. " you smiled trying to cheer him up.

" it would be amazing if that happens." he lets out a sad smile.

" you look exhausted and it's almost 4. Go to bed." you checked the time realising you both had been talking for almost an hour.
He nodded feeling tired. You walked to the bedroom with him and made him lay on his side of the bed pulling the duvet over him.

After tucking him in you lay beside him closing your eyes until you felt a heavy weight on your chest. You opened your eyes and saw jungkook resting his head on your chest and sleeping. You smiled slowly hugging his body and playing with his hair.

" good night," you mumbled kissing his head.
