Jungkook sits across from Y/N, his eyes filled with a sparkle as he gazes at her. Y/N, however, seems unimpressed, rolling her eyes in response to his smile.

“You are wasting my time Jungkook,” She said.”

She takes a lazy sip of her drink, she knows he will not tell her but  Despite that, she hopes this meeting might give her a hint.

“Can't I just enjoy your company, Y/N? Or is that too much to ask?” Jungkook said with a grin

Y/N narrows her eyes at him, unconvinced by his charm offensive.

“Cut the act, Jungkook. I know there's more to this dinner. So, spill it.”

Jungkook's smile falters slightly, replaced by a more serious expression.

“Nothing, I don't know where Taehyung is. But I want to help.” Jungkook said.

“Why would I take help from you? It's you who caused him to be missing!” She exclaimed.

Jungkook's expression shifts, betraying a hint of shock.

“Wait, you still think I had something to do with Taehyung's disappearance?”

“Well, you have to admit, Jungkook, the timing was suspicious. I saw you with my own eyes, Taehyung vanished right after that argument you two had. “

“Okay true I wanted to shoot him, I accept that part. I wanted to k!ll him, '' Jungkook said.

She looked unsurprised. She knows that already.

“But I didn't actually shoot him, nor that I am behind his disappearance. I do hate Taehyung, but that is because of my personal reasons. I would not want to hurt him.”  Jungkook's features soften, his eyes reflecting a mix of frustration and understanding.

Y/n still looks like she was not convinced and he could read that. He held her hand which Y/n pushed away quickly.

“Y/N, I swear I had nothing to do with it. I've been trying to find him ever since he disappeared. Even I want to know where he is.” Jungkook said.

Y/n chuckled and leaned in, “You know that I don't trust you? I am well aware of your games Jungkook, you really make me embarrassed by your hideous acts.”

“Y/n, I am serious, I want you to trust me here. I don't give a fck if Taehyung d!es, but I don't want him to d!e in hands of him.” Jungkook said.

“Him?” She asked with a confused expression.

“Your dad, I think he has Taehyung. But I am not sure why he would have him.” Jungkook said.

Y/n stared at Jungkook's face and then she started laughing. “Oh my god, this is so ridiculous.”

Jungkook sighed. “Really? You find it funny?”

“I indeed find it really funny.” Y/n replied.

Jungkook reaches across the table, placing a hand on hers. “It will not be funny when you see the reality of your dad.”

“What's the reality huh? Jungkook even I don't like my father, I argue with him all the time, but there is literally no reason why he would kidnap Taehyung.” She replied.

Jungkook nodded his head. “Exactly, that's why I am confused, what could be the reason? I am actually curious.”

He said and sip on his drink, he took a bite of the food which was getting cold now. “Eat bunny, you haven't even taken a bite ever since you came.”

She stared at the food and then back at Jungkook. “Is that all you want to talk about?”

He shook his head, and then placed  his face on his palm as he stared at her. “No, I wanna talk about how much I love you.”

She rolled her eyes. “What is wrong with you?”

“Don't you miss us?” He asked. She gulps her saliva, she doesn't miss him. But it feels like a huge part of her life was taken away from her with him.

“No,” She replied. “But,” She paused for a few seconds. She took a deep breath and shook her head. “Nothing,”

“You still love me don't you?” He asked.

“I stop loving you the day you let me marry Taehyung, Jungkook,” She said.

“It was my fault, I want us to fix it now. He is not even here, for how long are you gonna wait for him?” Jungkook asked.

“Until I find him,” She replied.

“Aww, so stupid Y/n. It's useless to wait for him. I have already replaced his place in his house, in his parents life in his business and soon in your life too. So even if Taehyung ever comes back, I am not giving his life back to him.” Jungkook said, and indeed he was able to replace his place in business and in their house.

“You can't replace Taehyung.” She said,

The phone rang, it was Jungkook's phone and the caller id was showing Chaeryeong name. He picked up the call.

~“Mrs. Kim is asking for you, when will you come back,” She spoke.

Jungkook stared at Y/n, “It depends, Y/n, do you want to go somewhere else after the dinner baby?” He asked.

Y/n’s eyes widened a little, why is he trying to create misunderstanding between Chaeryeong and her?

Chaeryeong was not surprised but she was disappointed.

~ “Mrs. Kim is saying he might spend the night with Y/n.” he heard Chaeryeong say she was with Mrs. Kim. And now Jungkook knows that she might get angry with Jungkook after this. He was able to create some affection for him in Mrs. Kim’s heart but now she might get distant again.

Jungkook hung up the call. “Stupid girl.”

“You are stupid, an idiot. Assh*le.” Y/n said. “Why can't you treat Chaeryeong well?”

“I don't even want to see her,” Jungkook said.

“Why did you marry her then?” Y/n asked.

Jungkook shrugged his shoulders. “It's fun to make your father do things he doesn't want to do. He said he would never let his daughter marry me, but he was the one who helped me get married to her.”

“Divorce her. It will be better for you both.” She said,

“Okay then deal? You Divorce Taehyung and I will divorce Chaeryeong,” He said.

Y/n took her bag and was about to stand up but Jungkook stopped her. “You can not leave like this.” He stood up too. He moved closer to her. He held her hand, she tried to push him but he firmly held her hand and softly kissed her wrist.  “I love you. Let's just forget about unimportant people in our relationship.”

She stared at him. “There is and was no relationship between us,”

“I don't need a relationship to have you,” He replied. “You don't want to leave Taehyung, then don't. But can we still be what we were?”

“You wasted my time, I shouldn't have come here.” She exclaimed as she picked up her purse. And then left the table

Taehyung was sick of his routine. He is the type of person who keeps himself busy all the time and now he is stuck here.

Each day felt like a relentless cycle, confined within the walls of a room whose windows remained stubbornly shut.

The air felt stagnant, suffocating him with its lack of movement, and he often found himself longing for a breath of fresh air, for the touch of sunlight on his skin.

The sight of Y/n, who he missed the most.

Taehyung had no clue about his location. Despite the attempts of his escape, he never gets to go out, he needs a better plan.

Gradually, Taehyung had come to terms with his situation, resigning himself to the reality of his captivity.

As he returned to his room, the door creaked open, admitting a slender figure into the dimly lit space. He is not sure of this girl's name, nor has she mentioned it to him. But he has heard her name, it's Hana.

"You have a call," she announced coldly, holding out a phone towards him.

Taehyung accepted the device with a furrowed brow, his gaze flickering with suspicion.

He knew all too well the nature of this phone—a one-way communication device that allowed him to receive calls but rendered him powerless to initiate contact..

With a heavy heart, Taehyung brought the phone to his ear, bracing himself for the voice on the other end of the line. He knew instinctively who awaited him.

"Taehyung," came the voice, smooth as silk yet laced with a chilling edge. "I trust you're settling into your accommodations.”

“How long are you gonna keep me here?” He asked.

~“I don't know Taehyung, I am not a k!ller. I don't want to k!ll you, but I can't leave you either. You will backstab me.” He replied.

“I will not backstab you Mr. Park.” Taehyung replied.

~“You already did, when you said you would help me get rid of Jungkook but instead you put your own life at risk for him.” He said. “You wanted to expose me. I thought I was your friend Taehyung.”

Taehyung clenched on the phone, he thought that too, but he was unaware of the nature of Mr. Park.

“We are still friends, but Jungkook is my brother.” Taehyung said.

~ “Oh you heard your brother is hanging out with your wife? You know Jungkook is a selfless jerk, you are ruining your own life because of him. Even tonight they went on a dinner date. I will send you the picture, he replaced you. He doesn't care about Taehyung, no one cares about you, not even your mom. Now she has a new son, who is Jungkook.'' He said.

Taehyung knows he is lying, Y/n must care about him right?

The door opened and Hana came inside again with a few print outs of Jungkook with Y/n at the dinner and then with his mom. Taehyung stared at them.

~ “Jungkook is pure evil Taehyung, he is a snake.” He said.

“I can see who is pure evil.” He mumbled.

~“You shouldn't have betrayed me for your dear brother, he doesn't deserve it.” He said. “You know why you're here and what is expected of you. Do not disappoint me." Mr. Park added.

The words hung in the air. And as the call came to an abrupt end, Taehyung was left alone once more, Hana took the phone and left. Meanwhile Taehyung stared at Y/n. He was seeing her after 96 days, he missed her so much.

3 months ago,

"Taehyung, I need to know if I can trust you," Mr. Park began, his voice low and serious.

Taehyung nodded, a flicker of uncertainty crossing his features. "Of course, sir. You can trust me."

Mr. Park hesitated for a moment before continuing, his gaze fixed on Taehyung. "It's about Aera," he said finally, his tone heavy with regret.

“What about Jungkook's mother?” Taehyung asked.

“I was in an affair with her.”

Taehyung's eyes widened in disbelief, shock rippling through him. " But... I thought..."

"She was a cunning woman, Taehyung," Mr. Park interrupted, his voice strained with emotion. "She knows how to manipulate people, and I was foolish enough to fall for it. Your father was not paying attention to her so she seduced me even knowing that I was a married man.”

He said, twisting what happened and putting the blame on the woman.

“Is that's why dad and you are not friends anymore?” Taehyung asked.

“Yes, but truly, it was a mistake that I did, I was still young at that time.” He said.

As Taehyung processed this revelation, Mr. Park pressed on, the weight of his words hanging heavy in the air. "And now... now Jungkook is using his mother to manipulate me," he confessed, his voice barely above a whisper.

He decided to confess this to Taehyung, because he can't tell that he caused his aunt to k!ll herself.

Taehyung's mind raced, trying to make sense of the situation. "What do you mean, sir?" he asked, his voice barely audible.

"Jungkook is trying to control me through my daughters,” Mr. Park explained, his voice tinged with desperation. "I need a solution, Taehyung. I can't let myself fall into Jungkook's manipulation and risk ruining my daughter's life."

Silence descended upon the room as Taehyung absorbed Mr. Park's words, he looked up at him. "We'll find a way, sir,”

“I already find a way,”

“What?” Taehyung asked. Mr. Park smiled, he is close to Taehyung but not this close to share all their secrets.

“Just do what I say, I just want to teach him a lesson."

Taehyung agreed because he thought that would help Jungkook get his senses and leave Chaeryeong and Y/n both alone. But he wasn't not prepared for Mr. Park's plan who wanted to k!ll Jungkook.
