☆67. In A Hospital Hallway, Busan☆
A/N: Till August the update schedule will be messed up since it is my thesis.
Enjoy!
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Jungkook was sipping upon his coffee from a black mug, standing in their beach house's terrace infront of the rushing ocean, looking down at Jihyun's gold anklet in his hand.
He placed his mug on a corner table as he walked into the living hall and stuffed himself in the couch comfortably. He took out a folded photo from his pocket and open to gaze down at his grandfather's young version with Jimin's step father and Kosan, looking at their happiness together.
"What is it...?" Jungkook wondered to himself. "Clearly, Jimin's step father is really older than Jimin's mother Roselyn. So do Kosan. Can admit the fact that they are of similar ages to grandpa Woo but can not accept the fact that they went to same educational institution" Jungkook looked down at their matching uniforms carrying their backpacks.
"Damn... this thing is messing up with my head" Jungkook clutched onto his hair and tsked, didn't seem he was matching the cue this soon. "A formal CEO of my company. A boss bastard ruling hookers and drugs. A pathetic full time home resident drunkart lowlife. They are three different people..." Jungkook mumbled as he took out his phone and began calling someone.
"Hello, Dad?"
"Jungkook! Why weren't you answering my calls? There is something really important going in here which is worth your precious time, Mr. My jerk son CEO"
"Just in a second, Dad. For now, I want to know the name of the university Grandpa Woo graduated from"
"This is important for you right now?"
"Yes, Dad"
"The same university you got graduated from, why?"
"Nothing. Was just... it's nothing"
"Mi-Sun is pregnant with your second child, she is here since a week being everyone's sweetheart so, congratulations on your third child and don't show me your face until you get a little serious about what you are doing in life and with Jimin"
"Wait... what?... since Jae-Hwa, there was nothing between me and that woman. It is impossible"
"Then I think you both need a lot of explaining to do to our dear family and to Jimin"
"Stop mentioning Jimin into this"
"Who is mentioning me?" Jungkook heard Jimin who just jogged in, in his red silk nightwear.
"Why not? You can't just keep switching your wives and have children out of them one by one and repeat"
His father stated and Jungkook just watched Jimin standing up on the couch with his bare feet. Carefully, he tiptoed up to Jungkook in a playful way with a wide smile.
"I don't... but..."
Jungkook tried to explain until Jimin placed his feet on the either side of Jungkook and left his weight on Jungkook's crotch. "Owch!" Jungkook groaned while looking at Jimin with wide eyes and Jimin laughed.
"I don't know why you don't take anything seriously"
"You know what? Whatever. You aren't going to listen to me anyways so, I won't bother wasting my words. Can I just give away my surname and my stupid family to somebody else for only a month so that I could enjoy my wedding?"
"Yeah, sure. Go ahead"
"Thank you"
Jungkook sarcastically announced and his father hang up on him, making Jungkook to put his phone down.
"You seem upset, what happen?" Jimin noted while situating his elbow on Jungkook's chest to support his chin.
"Mi-Sun happened" Jungkook rolled his eyes while caressing Jimin's hair bangs gently.
"I thought you had figured her out" Jimin guessed while trying to peek at the photo Jungkook was holding and Jungkook swiftly folded it half to shove it inside his pants' pocket.
"I did but she is way more clever than I thought she was. She has announced that she is pregnant with my baby but trust me, Jimin. It isn't true" Jungkook tried to explain and Jimin scoffed.
"Nothing she does can be called as clever but bitchy. She is a bitch and she plays her bitch-card whenever she needs it. I have known women like her. I knew she won't just let go of her rich, young and handsome ex hubby" Jimin mentioned while rolling his eyes.
"Eww... I hate that word"
"You hate everything so, it doesn't matter anymore" Jimin kissed Jungkook's cheekbone and then slowly lead his lips down to kiss Jungkook's lips.
You know what's really different about you? I really don't have to explain myself to you, you understand me and trust me" Jungkook stated between the kiss and Jimin chuckled.
"Am I not a full course of meal with extra pudding, Mr. Jeon?" Jimin whispered while biting his lower lip flirtatiously as he sit up straight on Jungkook's crotch.
"Don't start it" Jungkook emphasized.
"Why not?" Jimin whispered while playing with his own blonde hair, flashing his dimple smile.
"The week is over" Jungkook mentioned and Jimin's smile died down.
"I am just not ready" Jimin noted.
"It isn't about you, Jimin. It is about Melody. I can't tell the doctor to postpone the surgery further because you are scared. Haven't you been saving your meals into the money for her eyes?" Jungkook questioned with crossed arms.
"It's just... she is really young and whatever that doctor explained that day was too pathetic" Jimin complained with crossed arms.
"Pathetic or not, it is scheduled to be today but suddenly you had a stomachache last night which seems to be gone at the moment" Jungkook faked a smile.
"Oh, really? I actually said that?" Jimin frowned with a pout.
"Look, I get it that you are pretty and looks divine in red but it doesn't mean that you can lie and act like you don't remember it" Jungkook emphasized.
"And yes, I am mean" Jungkook added soon when Jimin opened his mouth to comment something which probably was the same thing Jungkook just said as Jimin made an unamused face. "We are going today. It isn't okay for Melody to keep taking all the medication for more than a week"
"Just not today. I promise, we can go tomorrow" Jimin requested.
"No. Not anymore" Jungkook shook his head in denial.
"Baby? Where are you?! Baby?!" They both heard Jae-Hwa's voice and Jungkook sit up, looking concern about Melody.
"Oh... I forgot I was the baby in their game" Jimin told Jungkook while still being on him. "Melody was cooking dinner and they decided that I am the sick baby because I had a little weird throat last night when I was reading them their bedtime story. Now, Jae-Hwa is trying to make the sick baby have a cough syrup that's really pathetic to taste, that's why I ran away from their one room home so..." Jimin explained in his chirpy way with his so many hand gestures.
"I get it" Jungkook assured, cutting Jimin off.
"A baby who can run away from home as he please. Nice. At least, has a better family-life opportunities than me" Jungkook commented while lying back down.
"I think I should hide..." Jimin noted while getting off of Jungkook who grabbed his wrist.
"But I don't think so. Jae-Hwa! The baby is here!" Jungkook announced and Jimin began applying all of his might to get rid off Jungkook's grip on his wrist as he heard Jae-Hwa's footsteps abruptly jogging closer.
"Let go... Mr. Jeon" Jimin whispered in a rush.
"Baby! There you are. You have to drink it or you will get more sick" Jae-Hwa announced upon finding Jimin.
"Mr. Jeon!?? No! Help me!"
"You have to drink it, baby Jimin, it's for your good" Jungkook assuringly mentioned while sitting up and grabbed Jimin's waist once the latter almost tried to run away.
"N-No!" Jimin shook his head abruptly once Jae-Hwa pour the syrup in a small pink spoon she had.
"I am concern who would told her what syrup is it..." Jungkook snickered out. Obviously, Jimin did.
"I didn't know I will lose on the music chair and would end up being the baby!" Jimin complained.
"It will be okay" Jae-Hwa tried to console him, watching him struggling in Jungkook's embrace as Jungkook grabbed Jimin's face to not let it move anywhere.
"No... Mr. Jeon! Don't! I hate syrups, they make me feel sleepy all the time and taste like bird seeds!" Jimin almost cried, still struggling.
"He liked bird seeds when he was little" Jae-Hwa stated when Jungkook looked at her with a questionable frown.
"Then you must have it again" Jungkook laughed an evil grin as he helped Jae-Hwa shove the spoon full into Jimin's mouth. "Let it go down" Jungkook added when Jimin began forcing the liquid to stay in his mouth and began protesting physically in order to escape and spit it out.
Unfortunately, he ended up swallowing it since it was too bitter to keep in mouth for further time.
"You are so mean!" Jimin complained to Jungkook as he ended up falling off from the couch.
"Babies don't use words like these" Jungkook noted.
"Don't say anything to my baby" Jae-Hwa scolded Jungkook defensively.
"Let's go home, we have to do your makeover now" Jae-Hwa fixed Jimin's hair while the latter wasn't still recovered from his bitter tongue.
"But babies don't wear makeup" Jimin tried to explain.
"They do sometimes" Jungkook broke in.
"But this baby doesn't want to..." Jimin uttured.
"Let's go" Jae-Hwa whined as she grabbed Jimin's ankle and began trying to drag him away with her and Jungkook watched how Jimin's silk clothes were making it way more easier for Jae-Hwa to drag Jimin by his foot, making Jimin to slipped down the couch effortlessly.
"But... No... I remember I want to prepare lunch... now..." Jimin begged and Jungkook snickered on how Jae-Hwa was dragging Jimin by his foot on the floor without even applying any much force. Thanks to his silk clothes.
"Bye" Was all Jungkook said while waving at Jimin who raised his middle finger at Jungkook while being slided away on the floor to the hallway until being disappeared in the corridor.

"Wow..." Taehyung mentioned, fixing his cufflinks when he had a navy blue suit on, walking down the staircase of his house, it was just morning but Jihyun was found in the living room, his mouth full of vanilla ice-cream when he was stuffed into the couch watching a romantic K-drama.
"We are out of ice-cream..." Jihyun uttured with his mouth all packed with the cream and Taehyung was froze on the staircase.
"I can tell, will bring more to my way back home, my vanilla" Taehyung snickered while walking up to Jihyun and pecking Jihyun's cheek as he walked to the kitchen.
"Don't go, Daddy" Jihyun pouted.
"I have to, my little kitten or else Jungkook will kill me, I am doing all of his side jobs. I am taking five cups of coffee a day, it's that hard while Suga Hyung is just playing video games" Taehyung scoffed while pouring himself some black coffee in a two cups.
"Yeah, everyone at the family house thinks you can steal the company away from us if you will get a chance, since you are the only person in direct contact of Jungkook hyung other than any of our cousins" Jihyun stated while watching his drama.
"No, thank you, I would rather die than having this fucked workload company" Taehyung rolled his eyes.
"But everyone at the family house is scared of you" Jihyun shrugged as he took the coffee cup Taehyung offered him.
"Many people get scared of me so, I am used to of that" Taehyung assured and sipped upon his coffee.
"Yes, My mom passed out too once I told her I am married to Kim Gahan's son" Jihyun said with a tight line smile.
"Well..." Taehyung froze. "You told her?"
"It wasn't in my hand, they wanted to abort our babies"
"Who? Your parents? Guess they need a proper introduction from their son's husband, don't they?" Taehyung caressed Jihyun's cheek and Jihyun smiled.
"Maybe... but they have stopped talking to me, don't think they will talk to you" He mentioned in a low voice and Taehyung snickered.
"Believe me, they will. For now, How about Jungkook's office? You haven't looked after it for a few days. You know how Jungkook's office gets when he isn't around, everyone takes turn to sit on his chair and play their stupid Lego"
"Lego isn't stupid" Jihyun whined.
"I don't think so, honey. I am running late, come here, Kiss me hard" Taehyung whispered and Jihyun giggled while abruptly kneeling up on the couch and wrapping his arms around Taehyung's neck as he kissed him hard.
"Can we talk about your family when you will come back?" Jihyun requested, breaking the kiss and Taehyung just cleared his throat.
"There is nothing about them, I have told you my father is a bank... manager, I guess" Taehyung mentioned and Jihyun chuckled as he still was in Taehyung's arms being a koala to his neck.
"I know you had been lying, you have made him switch his jobs eleven times and never remembers which one you told last time..." Jihyun was explaining while laughing until Taehyung pulled him into the kiss. Making Jihyun to whimper in satisfaction lowly into the kiss until Taehyung broke it.
"Whatever, see ya, baby moon and babies" Taehyung noted in a whisper while pecking Jihyun's forehead as he let him go to leave the house.
"What?! No..." Suga uttured with wide eyes as he placed his phone down ringing the music of a game he was playing on it. Being in Taehyung's office.
"I know it sounds stupid but someday it was about to happen" Taehyung sighed while signing a bunch of sketch papers like a robot.
"Jungkook will kill you" Suga emphasized.
"If my father will get to know that my spouse is pregnant with my two babies and I haven't told him about it, he is going to kill me too. My dad is one of those fathers who love their daughters more than their sons and look at their sons as if they are wasting their youth instead of earning a fortune like him as soon as they breathe out of the womb" Taehyung explained while rolling his eyes.
"But the gender of the baby isn't still known"
"If it's going to be a daughter or two among my twin babies, my father won't like it to be not told before! I was raised like a soldier to follow his footsteps like Jungkook was but I ran away. I am already on the hit list" Taehyung further added.
"But going back with Jihyun to your family isn't okay either. They are Jeons we are talking about"
"Jihyun wants to know everything and my family support all sort of weird relationships, they aren't homophobic like Jeons. They wouldn't care if I had married a lama, Jihyun is still a boy"
"Still you had run away, keep that in mind and you know the reason why you did that. Their mindsets on stuff isn't the issue, Taehyung, their work is. And Jungkook will not allow you to drag his baby cousin who is so dear to Jungkook, away to a mansion where your father feed people to his bulldogs on family gatherings" Suga replied with his raised eyebrow and crossed arms.
"Who told you that?" Taehyung keened his eyes at him.
"The point is, it is true"
"Jungkook did it, didn't he?" Taehyung asked and then aggressively took out his phone. Trying to call Jungkook who didn't pick up at the moment and the call was forwarded to the voice mail.
"You behave like a pregnant man all of the times! I told you to not say what you saw that day! We are best friends! Did you really have to involve the third guy in this whole mess?! Call me!" Taehyung left a voice message to Jungkook.
"You know, I can hear you, right?" Suga made a 'wtf' face.
"You don't care about anything, Hyung"
"Yeah, why do I care?" Suga realized with a casually shrug.

*In a hospital hallway, Busan*
Jimin was wearing a red sweater with black pants and was biting his nails while tapping his foot on the floor, being seated on a hospital bench.
He was holding Melody in his arms beside Jae-Hwa who was talking and playing casually with Melody while Jimin was looking all stressed out and panicked, watching Jungkook in his black dress shirt and pants, talking to a doctor from a far.
"It isn't today, is it?" Jimin questioned when Jungkook walked up to him and the doctor went inside an operation room. Jungkook sighed and simpered while gently crouching infront of Jimin.
"Jae-Hwa, go and get some chocolate milk for papa and you from that vending machine, we have learned how that works, right baby?" Jungkook asked while giving Jae-Hwa his credit card.
"Yes I know, daddy" Jae-Hwa nodded while happily jumping off the bench.
"It should be milk and ask that lady to help you if you couldn't reach it" Jungkook instructed while pointing out the nurses talking beside the vending machine and Jae-Hwa went away.
"Jimin, honey, you are changing the day again and again but more of the time you will take for her, more of the time she will remain suffering with no vision. Don't you want her to be able to see you?" Jungkook gently turned his attention to Jimin as if he sent Jae-Hwa to have a talk with Jimin.
"I know but... Just not today" Jimin's eyes began tearing up but he was trying hard to not let Melody know that he was upset.
"She will be fine" Jungkook abruptly added while holding Jimin's face and sitting up on the bench beside Jimin. Giving Melody an opportunity to try reach him, leaving Jimin's lap.
"They have so many needles and scary things and she is really young for this" Jimin mumbled while holding Melody back in a back hug manner.
"I won't let anything happen to her, don't you trust me? Jihyun went through this too, it's not that scary as it seems and I suddenly remember it that uncle Joon-ki insisted to be in the operation theater throughout the time so... I talked it out to a few people as well and they allowed me to be inside throughout the operation" Jungkook told Jimin who looked at him.
"Really?" He whispered.
"Of course, really. If you want to then either you can or..."
"No. I can't..." Jimin shook his head in denial abruptly.
"Okay. Fine, then I will go with her. Nothing will go wrong and I won't leave her side, I will make sure they treat her well or else I will punch them all" Jungkook assured while caressing Jimin's face.
"No please, don't do that, it won't be suitable" Jimin took it too seriously.
"Silly, I love your eyes when you cry" Jungkook snickered, wiping Jimin's tears.
"You are a sadist jerk, Mr. Jeon" Jimin complained.
"You don't even know what that means, do you?" Jungkook asked while making Jimin's face be uplifted enough to look into his beautiful tears sparkling eyes.
"Shall we?" Jungkook asked while extending his hands out to Melody as he looked at Jimin who looked away until a doctor came out of the operation room.
"Mr. Jeon, everything is ready" the doctor broke in as he marched up to them and Jungkook nodded, looking up at him.
"Jimin, let her go before Jae-Hwa comes back and whine about having her baby sister back" Jungkook whispered while eyeing Jae-Hwa who was selecting his drink on the vending machine with the help of a nurse holding her in her arms to help her little fingers reach the digital panel.
Jimin gulped while slowly letting go of Melody who was already struggling to be in Jungkook's arms, banging a rattle everywhere until Jungkook picked her up and stood up to follow the doctor.
Jimin just watched them go.
"Jungkook?" Jimin called upon him soon when he was about to open the door of the operation room, making him to pause leaving with Melody as he looked at Jimin.
Something about Jimin's way of saying his name was so charismatic to him. He didn't know what it was but Jimin's accent of saying his name sounded so appealing to Jungkook. Though, Jimin couldn't say anything further when Jungkook looked him in the eyes.
"Just... make sure they make her sleep well beforehand, okay?" Jimin nervously stated while fidgeting his fingers, didn't know if it was because of the situation or because of the way he blurted out Jungkook's name and got shy all of the sudden.
"Okay" Jungkook noted assuringly before leaving.
Jimin watched Melody being carried away, having her chubby cheek rested on Jungkook's shoulder, carrying her rattle toy with her and as the door opened of the designated room, Jimin happened to glance at the bed and the surgeon's staff preparing everything until it closed upon Jungkook's back.

Jin was lying in a beautiful bathtub, lathered water covering his whole body till his neck and his hands stretched out as he was staring the ceiling, blankly.
The bathroom's door was flung open and Jin abruptly sit up, grasping a towel from nearby with a hitched breath, finding Namjoon talking on the phone with someone as he marched into the bathroom.
"Hey?!" Jin complained while trying to hide his whole self with the towel but was just able to cover himself from his chest till upper thighs.
"Yes, wait for a sec" He told the person on the call. "I'm leaving for work, do you want anything from my way back home?" He asked Jin who sighed while shaking his head.
"Don't you think sometimes human need privacy? And it's been a week I am forced to live here. I want to go home, Attorney Kim. I am not a doll you can imagine to be your wife and play along"
"Listen, sweetie, I don't have enough time for this argument right now. I have to go and argue for somebody else in the court in thirty minutes already so, let's leave this for later, okay?" Namjoon questioned in a fake sweet sarcastic voice.
"Whatever" Jin replied and rolled his eyes and Namjoon turned to leave but then he paused and sighed as he hang up his call.
He chose to walk up to Jin who hid behind the towel more defensively. "What?" Jin mumbled as Namjoon sat down on the edge of the bathtub while making sure his suit remained all clean from the lather.
"Jungkook knows where Jimin is, technically we all know where Jimin is including you. But, Kosan doesn't know where he is and he would be sure that you would know where Jimin could be. Long story short, Jeon Jungkook is my client and he wants you to be away from the Wacko. End of discussion" Namjoon announced while trying to caress Jin's hair but the latter abruptly turned his face away.
"I know where this is going. I don't want Jimin to get into trouble with you rich people. But it's hard to decide who to trust in this situation. I will pretend I am not even here since Kosan is definitely not trustworthy" Jin noted.
"You are a clever little boy, Jin" Namjoon commented with a smile while extending his hand to caress a piece of Jin's wet hair bangs away from his forehead but this time Jin let it happen.
"I am not a little boy" Jin scoffed.
"Yes, you are. A beautiful and clever little boy" Namjoon whispered as he caressed Jin's face down to his lips slowly and Jin looked up at him as Namjoon rubbed his bottom lips.
"Who was that woman downstairs last night?" Jin whispered out of nowhere.
"A fellow attorney, she wanted to get some files" Namjoon explained himself.
"If the word 'files' isn't your dick but why do I care?" Jin shrugged while playing with the water lowly.
"You do. Because you loved me... first" Namjoon whispered with a smirk.
"That's not true. Can you please go?" Jin requested sarcastically.
"Turned out to be that I was not what you had predicted by my way of kindness to you and then Kosan gave me that drink and sent you to lure me in, then you accused me of taking advantage of you while being underage and began ignoring me for a new fellow stupid teenager thief boyfriend" Namjoon narrated like any boring story while caressing Jin's foot on the bathtub's edge beside him with his index finger.
"Leave" Jin emphasized as Namjoon held Jin's ankle.
"Don't act like a stubborn child, Hon. It's not going to work with me like this, you could have denied it, but you wanted to see how it feels like to be with a man like me because you had this crazy teen crush on me, don't you?" Namjoon asked in a gentle manner but then suddenly he rolled Jin's leg while bending down, making the latter to roll over as Namjoon grabbed his hair and began forcing Jin's face to be into the water.
"I was way better than your boyfriend or should I say your late boyfriend" Namjoon announced as Jin was struggling in the tub and hitting his hands everywhere.
"You know it's me or no one for you, Jin or I will do them all so bad like previous ones, no doubt you look so scare while trying to talk to someone new but I saw everything! You used to smile a lot to that guy, was it necessary!?" Namjoon yelled as Jin was trying to have any hold on Namjoon's hand grasping his hair, making him drown so effortlessly until Namjoon let go of his hair.
Jin abruptly tried to get his balance and was able to pull his face out of the water. Coughing the water out and panting for air.
"Enjoy your day, Jin" Namjoon patted Jin's head as he stood up.
"You are an attorney with some serious mental issues" Jin panted out while shoving Namjoon's hand away.
"And see, I can take your breath away as well" Namjoon laughed as he chose to walk away.
"Jimin... why you had to put me in this situation...?" Jin panted out while holding his neck and chest.
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Jimin was blankly staring at the floor while caressing Jae-Hwa's hair while the kid had situated her head on Jimin's lap being on the bench.
It was thirty minutes already and still the door was closed of the operation room.
"Why she couldn't see us?" Jae-Hwa asked out of nowhere and Jimin just caressed her cheek.
"Because angels wanted her to be this way" Jimin replied in a low voice. His heart was practically pounding from the inside.
"Why angels didn't make you my mommy?" Jae-Hwa complained while sitting up straight to demand an answer from Jimin all of the sudden.
"Who said they didn't?" Jimin asked while caressing her hair. "When you were born, you were really pretty, probably they haven't seen such a pretty baby before, they were astonished and wanted to give you to me but your pretty face made them so bewildered that they messed up" Jimin pouted.
"Then what happened?" Jae-Hwa asked being concern all of the sudden with an open mouth.
"They get mistaken sometimes so, they corrected it now, they switched me with your mother and now you are my daughter, nobody else's" Jimin assured with a smile.
"Did they apologize to you on their mistake?"
"Nope. But I knew they were sorry" Jimin noted.
"They should be" Jae-Hwa confirmed while crossing her little arms on her chest.
"Remember to not hate anyone for their mistakes, baby Jae" Jimin explained. "Mistakes just happen on their own without anyone's intentions, that's why they are called mistakes. But people fake them sometimes. You are really young to understand it but when you will be a grown up young lady you would have to make sure that people not only avoid mistakes infront of you but would actually stop to listen when you will talk and make way for you when you would walk. My daughters won't lead a life like some Jimin from the Wacko" Jimin stated, emphasizing while holding Jae-Hwa's face as if he was talking to his ownself but still to Jae-Hwa.
"What is Wacko?" Jae-Hwa asked and Jimin just hurriedly put his index finger on her lips.
"It's nothing. Just a bad thing we shouldn't name, promise me you won't say that again"
"I promise, Papa" Jae-Hwa nodded and Jimin smiled while pulling her closer.
"Come here," Jimin whispered while offering her a hug, he needed that and Jae-Hwa abruptly stood up on her knees and wrapped her arms around his neck.
