Kyungmi runs her hands through her hair.

"There is no way it is him; it can't be him. Then again, everything matches..." She talks to herself. She vigorously shakes her leg as millions of thoughts cloud her mind.

It had been about two hours since her last talk with Jungkook and she kept feeling anxious, still trying to process everything the boy had said. She was also trying to analyze the situation.

Ever since Jungkook started talking about his dream and mentioned her name she had been shaken. She was taken aback because she never expected it— it had caught her off guard. She didn't understand how Jungkook would dream about hearing her name if she wasn't his mother. The boy had never heard her real name since the start so she didn't know how he could possibly have heard it in his dream. Unless he was her son. One of the two people she had been trying to find in her life.

Not only was it the name, but also the words and actions that were told. Those actions and words were exactly what she had said and what had happened back then for that moment has been something she has been able to remember detail by detail, word by word. "How could it be?" She asks again and gets a call from her phone.

She looks at it to see the name of the investigator. She takes a deep breath and answers the call.

"Hello?" She speaks.

"Ms. Choi! I have what I hope is some good news for you!" The investigator at the other end replies with a satisfied tone.

"Really? W-what is it?" she stutters.

"We think we have found your son. The right one this time. As to your daughter, we are almost there but we have found everything we can know about your son." He replies and Kyungmi widens her eyes not knowing what to say or think once more.

"I take it that when you left and when he was born your sons' name was Jeon Jungsuk right? Born September 1st, 1997?"

"Yes." She replies.

"Well, we were able to find out that your ex changed his name when he was almost 4 years old. His new name or the name he has carried ever since is now Jeon Jungkook. He is a college student and is the hidden child of Jeon Junwoo." He speaks and she gapes.

It was true. All her doubts disappeared right then and there and everything could almost be explained in that moment too.

"My son's name is now Jeon Jungkook. A college student? Do you know the name of his college?"

"No, there are some details we have yet left to find but we do have some pictures of him that we are sending to your email right now!" She quickly goes and opens her laptop. She logs in quickly and pulls up her emails. She immediately clicks on the file, and there shows up pictures of Jungkook. She feels the tears in her eyes and falls.

"Everything seems to point that he is your son, of course, if you want full confirmation a paternity test would need to be done, but only if you wish. What we know is that for whatever reason he has not been shown in the spotlight by Mr. Jeon. He is majoring in the music field and has a clean record. As to why his name was changed, we don't know however we do know it is only his name that has been changed." He informs Kyungmi as she covers her mouth to stop the sobs that want to erupt from her chest.

"I see. Is it all legit?" She tries to not break her voice.

"Yes, we have evidence that shows it."

"I see. Thank you very much, investigator! I will handle the paternity test if I choose to do so. However, I am quite shaken up a bit to talk more." She says.

"We understand, it's a big thing. We are glad to be of help and we will try for your daughter too. Have a good day." He says and hangs.

Kyungmi shakingly puts her phone to the side and cries with everything within her. "I have found one of you? Are you really my son?! Did I find you? Is it really you?" she asks herself as she cries. The emotions she felt hit her stronger than a few minutes ago.

She feels hope, happiness, fear, and peace. She feels confused too. Suddenly memories start to flash in her mind.

"My Mom? There is nothing really to say about her. She left my dad and I years ago. When I was three."

"My dad doesn't show me to the media. They don't know how I look or much information. "

"I don't know why or how, but I agree that I am able to bring my walls down with you."

"I guess I unconsciously see you as a mother figure."

"My guess is that it is her name."

She remembers his words and cries harder. It was no wonder she felt this pull to him the moment she got to talk to him. It was no wonder how their stories matched up, they were just in different perspectives. It was no wonder she cared so much and only wanted the best for him. The way they easily bonded. The way he reminded her of Junwoo when he was Jungkooks age, was because her son was in front of her eyes all along.

Her prince, her Jungsuk, was Jungkook.

Jungkook was arriving at a dance studio they rented outside of campus. He smiled when he saw that his hyungs were already at the place. He opens the door and greets them.

"Hey, Hyungs! I am here. Sorry that I came late, I got caught up with something the Professor and I were discussing." He says as he puts his bag on the bench and begins to open it to store his phone.

"You are finally here kook! Don't worry, we didn't wait too long. We actually just got here five minutes ago so you are good." Tae greets him back as he and the others begin to stretch.

"Good to know. So, I guess we are showing the others the choreo we made up last time, right?" Jungkook asks as he approaches them and joins them to stretch out their body.

"Yes! We will show them the video we recorded and then show step by step. Jiminie and I finished choreographing the last parts yesterday too." Hobi replies to Jungkook who nodded his head.

After stretching, Hobi brought in his computer to show the others the choreography. They all gathered around and watched the video in detail. They were surprised by the beautiful choreography the boys had made. It did seem a little hard, but they were sure they could get it down.

"Wow, amazing how you three were able to make the choreography based on the title of the song. We truly have some very talented people in our team." Namjoon who was impressed comments first after seeing the dance.

"Yeah, I think we will surprise people with this. Though it looks hard? Not too hard but is something different." Jin says worriedly as he scratches his chin.

"Seems like it, but this is a ballad song so it's only natural that it is slow. I know you guys can do it! We have faith in you all. The other choreography will be more different though. Anyways, we were thinking Jungkook center, it fits right?" Hobi asks and the others quickly nod.

Jungkook blushes at the statement. "Are we sure I should be the center? I think Jimin Hyung fits the center for this song more."

"Ah kook." Yoongi puts a hand on his shoulder.

"Yes, we are sure. You fit the center very well. Give yourself more credit kid. By having you as our center we will also be showing everyone what you are made of. Prove people wrong. You got this." Yoongi encourages him and gives him a small smile.

"Uhh thanks Hyung." He blushes a little more.

"In that case, I will try to do my best. Anyways, should we start learning?" Jungkook asks as he hears some loud yes.

"Okay, we warmed up so now let's start by parts. We will start with the beginning first and then move to the chorus. We can do this guys!" Hobi gets up motivated, leading the group.

"We will show you all the start first and then instruct." Jimin adds.

Everyone gets their game faces on and get ready to start learning such beautiful choreography.

They struggled in some areas but the three best dancers of the group ended up being able to reteach and practice every move that was considered hard. After four hours of working hard the group decides for a break.

"Wow this is very tiring. I haven't' danced in such a long time. The dance is so difficult too." Jin lays down panting after hearing about the break.

Some of the others sit down and others go drink some water.

"We've done very well though! We pretty much have everything down now. We just need to clean up some areas. We have a lot of time for that. You guys are doing well!" Hobi cheers the others and fans himself with his shirt.

"I hope the other dance isn't as technical and detail oriented because I swear. How did you guys come up with such choreo, seriously? " Yoongi says as he lays down.

Jimin and Jungkook laugh at their small whines.

"I hope so too." Namjoon adds in sitting down after drinking some water.

"We've done well like Hobi Hyung said." Jungkook comments as wipes a bit of sweat with the back of his hand.

They all stay in silence for a while, their heavy breathing being the only sound in the room. They all catch their breaths and slowly the pantsing decreases.

Namjoon looks at everyone to see how they feel but stops and notices the swollen eyes of the younger. It wasn't so bad but now he could tell they were swollen which to him meant one thing.

He wasn't the only one for Jin who sat up also saw Jungkooks mood and eyes be different. "Jungkook, we don't mean to pry but are you okay?" Jin asks and Jungkook looks up at them confused.

"Huh?" The boy asks.

"Are you okay? Have you been okay? It's just that your eyes seem kind of swollen and the last time you had them swollen was when you..." Namjoon explains, not mentioning clearly the time in which Jungkook cried after the party.

"Oh. I uhm I am okay I guess. I'm feeling a little sad today but it's nothing I can't power through, just a dream I had that made me sad. I woke up crying so that's why my eyes are puffy. I promise besides that, that I'm feeling a little better everyday." He tries to sound fine in front of the others because he truly was but not fully.

"A bad dream? That sucks." Jimin comments.

"Yeah, don't feel like talking about it, but long story short, it was about my mom so. Anyways, now that I have garnered your attention...there was something I wanted to let you guys know about." Jungkook started and the others looks his way waiting to hear what Jungkook had to say.

"After talking with Professor Jang, Yugyeom, and you guys I decided that I will be going back to campus on Monday."He announces playing with the the ends of his shirt.

"Really?" They all say excited.

He nods, "Yes. It was a hard decision to make and I don't know if I am fully ready, but I want to do it. I don't want to be hiding forever or for long. Also, in a professional world, you have to attend work and obey the rules and times despite anything that happens there or in our professional lives. However, I am very scared of what will happen or what will be said." Jungkook keeps his head down and sighs.

Hobi pouts and slides his way to put his arm around Jungkooks back. "It's okay. We will be there with you and won't allow anything to happen to you. We will be defending you if someone tries anything. You won't be alone anymore." The older comforts.

Jungkook smirks, "It is what Professor said as well. I will say that although I am returning to attending my classes offline, I won't be going back to my dorm until after the break. I don't plan to stay in campus fully yet. I want to go by parts."

"That is okay, take your time Jungkook. Do whatever you need. I suggest though you comeback looking way different. What do you think about changing your look a little?" Jimin asks with a grin and the others ooh at the suggestion.

"My look? How though?" Jungkook asks.

'Let's dye your hair! Change your wardrobe a little more so that you show more confidence. Only if you want though." Jimin shrugs.

Jungkook thinks about it for a bit. It had been a while since he had changed his look completely and or style. He wouldn't mind doing it, but he had never colored his hair or changed his wardrobe fully. He guesses he didn't mind some change in style since either way he wanted to become a better changed person.

"I guess I don't mind? I guess it be interesting. I don't want to be the only one though." He states looking at all of them.

"You won't. Jimin and I have been thinking about dyeing our hair recently so you wouldn't do this change alone. We wouldn't want you to change much." Taehyung adds in.

"Hmm okay." Jungkook agrees and sees the way Jimin and Tae's eyes light up at the agreement.

'Okay great! We will do that this weekend then." Jimin joyfully states.

"They know how to dress up so you are in good hands kook. Just don't let Jin Hyung ever dress you up." Namjoon complains and Jin looks at him offended.

"Hey! That was one time! Don't be that way. You all really don't know when to respect me huh. Don't lie to him for my style is better than all of yours. I am also more handsome than you all." Jin sassily replies back causing laughter in all.

"He's already angry. He said one thing." Yoongi shakes his head.

Jungkook chuckles, he was already feeling more better by being with them. Maybe they were what he needed all along.

"Anyways, I think we've rested enough. Should we start again?" Hobi asks and the boys nod, getting up for round two.

Jeon Junwoo and his children.

Kyungmi had typed into her search bar. She then picked up her cup of tea and drank it. Usually the tea calms her down but it wasn't really helping her this time.

After the phone call, Kyungmi had stayed in shock for a good while looking back at the pictures that the investigator had sent. She had to be sure it was Jungkook in the photos, and it was. She then went to go make herself a cup of tea to calm her down and search more on her own.

She knows she should have searched on her own but she had forgotten and didn't know at the start too how big Junwoo had made it in the business area. She felt stupid for not searching sooner but it was better than never.

The fact that Jungkook could be her son brought her hope and happiness of course but it also made her feel very confused and needed to get some answers or some trace of what had happened, and I'd it was for sure the truth.

So she sat down with her tea and searched on her computer. After clicking enter she clicked on an article that was titled, "Get to know more of businessmen Jeon Junwoo." She waited for the page to load and immediately started reading.

As she read the article she only got information that she already knew about Junwoo. How he grew up and where he grew up and how he became the man he is. It wasn't until she got to the kid's area that she was able to get something new.

"The handsome businessman is also a father. Jeon Junwoo is a father of two kids that he has described to be the blessings in his life and the strength that allowed him to never give up when times were tough. Mr. Jeon has a lovely daughter, Jeon Eunjae who is 23, and a son who is 20 years old. Miss Jeon is said to overtake the company when he steps down in the future and has already started the goal by working at the company next to her father's side." The article read.

"Jeon Eunjae...yes that my princess and the age match too." Kyungmi days after reading the paragraph, she was getting somewhere. Despite all the emotions, Kyungmi also felt proud reading how far her ex-love had gotten by himself. She always knew he would be successful. She didn't think it was in the business area, but then again he had minored in it back in college.

She felt happy that he was able to grow without her, though it also added to her pain because not only did she leave her children but also the man she loved with all her heart and continues to love. Their children was the outcome of that immense love that they had. There was never a day where she didn't miss him either.

The way he would tease her when she was busy or when he's just bored. The way he would surprise her by back hugging her. She missed the way he would get so happy at small things. The way they wrote music together and sang together. The way that he would listen to her. His cute habit of eating food that was just like Jungkook's.

She missed so much about him, but she knew she caused herself to feel that way. However, despite missing him she was also disappointed in him. If what she was told it's the truth, she was very disappointed in Junwoo and the way he has treated Jungkook. Never should he have shown favoritism or treated their son in such a way. She didn't understand why, she sensed some of it was her fault but even then the younger male had no fault.

"I have no doubt that my daughter will be an amazing CEO. The company will be in good hands once I step down in the future. I have so much faith in her capabilities and talents. She's one of my many prides and someone that I would kill for. She's one of the light in my eyes. She still has more to learn, but I know she will get there someday." Mr. Jeon said when asked how he felt about his daughter and if she would be the future leader of Jeon Enterprises.

We also asked about his youngest son and the mystery as to why he wasn't out in public light.

"I don't show my son because I feel ashamed or because of anything like that. On the contrary, I am very proud of the man he is becoming and has yet to become. He's my little boy, my youngest. He's just very young and he doesn't really like the spotlight as much for now, so we agreed to keep his life private. I do it for his safety and his wishes but when he decides to be out, I can tell you it be will the right time. I love both of my children the same. Both are my strength, pride, and joy. I'm here because of these two. Not because of one or myself but it's them both." Mr. Jeon responded to the question.

"I'm getting nothing from this. But, this is what Jungkook talked about. He mentioned his father never showed him to the media or gave his name. This must tie to Jungkook. If Eunjae is in there then he must too. But why? Why did you change his name and not hers?" She asked herself rubbing her temples.

Although she wasn't getting more information like she wanted, things were making sense. Everything from the article matched what Jungkook would say. The ages all match too. She hoped to find a little more but the article quickly moved on from the children section and focused on his love life. That's where she clicked out. She didn't have the current strength to read anything about it. She wasn't in the right state of mind.

She then looks at images and is met with a picture of Junwoo and Eunjae together. She begins to cry once more. It was a picture of her daughter.

Her princess had grown up to be so beautiful and strong. There was no doubt that in that photo was Junwoo and Eunjae. Although he looked a little older, at the same he was also young and handsome as ever.

"You've grown well my darling. Look at you." She says touching the screen. She knew she would recognize her eyes anywhere. In the end, it was the eyes that she too has. Eunjae was a combination of her and Junwoo but everyone knew that she looked more like her. She didn't see it as much when Eunjae was young, but now she does.

She focused on her daughter for some good minutes and screenshot of the picture. She finally had something of her adult years. Finally had an idea of how well she is and how much she grew. She then tried finding more pictures but there wasn't much, only if Junwoo. However, she did find one picture of Jungkook.

"Throwback to when he was young. This is all you guys will get of him." Read the tweet connected to the picture. She clicked the link and was taken to Junwoo Twitter.

She then saw the picture better. It was a picture of Jungkook as a child. He was sitting between two classmates smiling awkwardly but cute as ever. "That's your eyes, they match with your eyes now. I think I've really found you guys." She says after comparing Jungkook's picture as a child to now that he's a grown-up.

She finally did it. After piecing information together and looking all things up. There was no doubt that this was it. That Jungkook was her son and was currently living with her. However, even if she was sure, she wanted extra confirmation by doing a DNA test. She wanted a backup.

To have solid true biological evidence. So after looking at information she searched for DNA labs and called one that would give results in the shortest time possible. After finding one and getting the information on it. She closes the computer and sobs.

"Thank you god. Thank you life for leading me up to them. Thank you for finally reuniting me with them." She says looking up as she tries to control her cries. She was crying for the hope and happiness she felt but she was also crying for the guilt, and regret.

She was also crying for the fear of Jungkook actually seeing her leave. She didn't know yet if it was truly a dream that the boy was there, but if it was then it added onto the list of guilt.

She also didn't know how she could face Jungkook once he came back. She didn't know she would react to him and if she was capable of acting like she was fine when she was not. However, she did know that she didn't want Jungkook to find out the truth yet. Not until she had the DNA test to show and not until she felt that he was in the right headspace.

The boy needed to learn the truth and she would tell him no matter what, but in her view, he wasn't ready for it yet. Maybe she wasn't ready too because she knew it meant indifference from the younger and she wasn't ready for that either. She wanted a little more time before she told him and faced his hate . Yet little did she know that Jungkook never had hated her.

"I need to tell someone at some point. Right now I need to calm down." She tells herself breathing in and out. She wipes her tears while doing so and grabs a tissue to wipe her nose. She needed to hold it together.

"Okay! Done we are done for today, everyone!" Hobi yells after doing the ending pose of butterfly.

He hears almost all of them yell out, "Finally!"

"Oh come on guys we didn't do that long. 6 hours is good enough! We did make a good progress for the first day. There are just some areas that we still need to improve on but I think we will get it soon. Good job!" Hobi compliments them and then goes to drink some water.

"We truly did make some good progress. We basically got the whole song down. Tomorrow we will be in the studio right?" Jungkook asks using his shirt to fan himself.

"Yes, I'd say we work on production tomorrow and then let's give it two weeks for this track if possible." Yoongi adds in.

"Alright, now I say we go get some bbq! It's been a while and I know we are all hungry! Let's shower, change, and go eat. It's on me this time!" Jungkook invited and they all look at him in shock.

"Wait, are we hearing right? Is Jeon Jungkook inviting us to go eat? Wow, never thought we would get this fast to that situation. No kook, you don't have to." Jin asks surprisedly but Jungkook chuckles, shaking his head.

"It's okay. You've all invited me lately to things and even last time when we still didn't get along that you all didn't use my money when we went to go eat, and found a way to give it back to me." Jungkook walks over to take some water.

"It's also the least I can do for being there for me these couple of days and understanding me. Plus it's like a dinner to this starting friendship." He explains and smiles and everyone else returns the smile.

He wanted to pay them back somehow and having dinner is the only way to do so for now. In the long run he hoped he would be able to repay them back in a better way.

"Fine, but this time only for now or until the future. Let's all go change and head out!" Jin speaks for all and Jungkook nods excited.

————

After the boys had showered and changed they split into three cars and drove to the restaurant. As they walked in, the smell of barbeque hit their noses and made them hungry. They greeted the women at the desk and were guided to an area for the seven of them. They ordered drinks and food and began to talk.

"You know, we all really do make an amazing team. We have gotten so much done! I have a feeling we will destroy the showcase that's almost here in two months." Taehyung smiles as they begin to talk about whatever comes to mind.

"I would hope so. We truly have done a lot. I think we will blow some people away! As to the team, I think we make a good team too." Yoongi adds in and sees the meet getting placed in front of them as they all see it being cooked fine the waiter fro a little and then leaving it up to them.

"We do. We always thought we needed something. Who would have thought that something is our very own Jungkookie. You've completed our team kook." Jimin pats Jungkook on the back who blushes.

Jungkook was still not used to having them compliment him so much. He didn't think he was that worthy of praise. Of course he had to stop thinking that way because he wanted to change, but still he felt it was overdone even if it truly wasn't.

"Guess he was our missing piece. Anyways, to save Jungkookie from being a blushing mess." Namjoon calls him out as he turns the meat.

"D-do you guys think there's a chance we will get scouted by companies? So far we haven't had as much luck the past years. Would it be any different this time? Think we can achieve our dream?" Namjoon stutters at the start of the question.

Being scouted and joining the world of music was always a dream for each and every one of them, even for Jungkook.

"I honestly have no idea but it would be nice. To at least get scouted as a producer or something of that sort if we can't be out there. I guess we will see. Though we shouldn't get our hopes up." Yoongi replies sighing at the end, remembering every showcase that didn't end up with one of them being scouted for a company.

"I have no idea how you guys have had no offers. You are all very insanely talented! You deserve to have your music and voice be known. I truly hope you all get scout this time." Jungkook compliments them. He only has went through two showcases but nothing big and he's never gotten offers either. He knew why for himself but he didn't understand why the others didn't.

"Thanks Jungkookie but you are just as talented too and you deserve to be scouted too. I guess we aren't talented enough to get the attention of companies but it's okay. Maybe our path has to be something different and we don't know about it yet. I can say that I hope we do but of course it's best to keep them low." Jin replies to Jungkook who nods.

"Yeah, or maybe it's not our time yet? We never know what can happen. It be cool to be scouted though and be part of a company. Imagine if we all were selected for the same company and went out as an official group? That be even cool." Jimin pictures smiling and taking a shot of his soju.

"That would really be cool. For us seven to become a group and be in the same company. We could tour, sing, dance, and write all together. Even if we weren't to have many fans, just a starting amount would do." Taehyung adds onto the image that Jimin had set in.

"Maybe in another universe though, who knows. I guess we have to keep trying until we see no more light. Let's wait for what can come." Hobi adds in and others nod, wondering what it would be like if their wish was to be true.

"Anyways, enough on that! Let's enjoy and eat up all we can! We've worked! Let's make some cheers and have our Jungkookie do it." Hobi says and puts his hand on Jungkook's shoulder who startles in surprise.

"Yeah, you can do it kook. A toast for what ever worked and what's to come." Namjoon answers his question and the younger nods standing up a little with his glass.

"Uhm okay well, cheers to our hard work and for our future!" He stated and although short it had a lot of meaning in it. They all knew it.

"Cheers!" They clinked their glasses and smiled. So much hope.
