Part : 07

On the same day,

After meeting with Jungkook,

In Taehyung's room,

Alice was reading a book, completely busy with her fictional characters when the door shut with a bang, making the door trembled, Alice flinched and her fingers tightening around the book she was holding, Her heart pounded in her chest as she saw her husband, Taehyung, stormed into the room, his face dark with anger, jaw clenched, and eyes burning with anger, she swallowed the lump in her throat, gripping the edge of the couch, Gathering all the courage she had, she spoke softly when Taehyung was removing his belt and watch

Alice : T-Tae! W-what happened? *gulped*

He turned sharply, His dark eyes, usually filled with an unreadable depth, were now filled with rage,he was trying to control the anger inside him

Taehyung : Don't ask me any questions, babe! *cold*

Alice's fingers curled into her lap, she didn't want to increase his anger but he threw his belt down and went to bring his alcohol bottle from the drawer

Alice : *gulped* T-Tae! I-I'm just worried, y-you're looking angry, is something happened? A-are you okay? *worried*

She put the book aside and stood up from the bed, Taehyung let out a bitter chuckle, running a hand through his hair before turning to face her completely

Taehyung : Okay? Do I look like okay to you? Alice! *cold*

Alice : *shook her head immediately* B-but what happened--

Taehyung : Please! For god's sake, Leave me alone! *annoyed*

He slammed the glass on the table and Alice flinched hard when she saw Taehyung didn't even take out the drink in the glass and directly touched the bottle on the lips, Alice knew if she won't talk to him, he'll definitely scare half of the family members due to his anger issues, she tightened her fists and took a step near him

Alice : I-is it about business? Tae! *soft*

Taehyung closed his eyes and slowly looked at her back

Taehyung : I said don't interfere in my matter, Alice! CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND ONCE? HUH? DO YOU REALLY THINK YOUR CONCERN CAN HELP ME TO GET OUT OF THIS SITUATION? HUH? *angry*

He yelled on her and took a step near her making her scared more, tears started forming in her eyes and she wiped it by her hands, Taehyung just looked at her tears and immediately turned back not to hurt her more, Alice had always known Taehyung was dangerous, but to her, he was still the man she loved, And now, he was yelling at her like she was nothing more than an inconvenience

Taehyan : Mumma? *shocked*

Taehyung moved his glare to the door and saw his twin sons were standing there, Taewon’s big, teary eyes landed on his mother, who was wiping her cheeks, trying to hide her pain, His little face crumpled as he ran toward her, throwing his tiny arms around her and Taehyan followed him

Taehyung looked at his sons and immediately put his drink inside the drawer back, he turned his face to Alice and saw Taewon was hugging her tightly

Taewon : M-mumma? Why are you crying? *worried*

As soon as he saw the tears in her eyes, his own tears spilled over, and he started sobbing uncontrollably, Alice looked at him and held him close to stop him, Taehyan's small fists clenched at his sides as he glared at his father, Despite his young age, his expression was eerily similar to his dad's cold, serious, and commanding

Taehyan : Apologize to Mumma! *cold*

Taehyung : *narrowed his eyes* What? *confused*

Taehyan : You made her cry! Dad! I said apologize to mumma! *Angry*

Taewon : P-please dad! say sorry! I d-don’t like it when Mumma cries! *sob*

Something inside Taehyung cracked, The sight of his wife crying, his youngest son sobbing, and his eldest son glaring at him with disappointment, it was too much,His hands loosened from their fists, His gaze softened, He exhaled a deep breath, running a hand through his hair 

He had let his anger control him, And in the process, he had hurt the only people who mattered

Taehyan : what are you waiting for? Dad! *angry* Apologize to her! You hurt her! You always tell us to protect Mumma, but you're the one making her sad!

Taehyung and Alice stared at their son,Alice had always seen Taehyan as a reflection of his father, but she never expected him to stand up to him like this

Taewon : D-dad! *worried*

Taehyung sighed heavily and walked to Alice and his sons, Taking a deep breath, he whispered to her

Taehyung : Sorry! *cold*

Taehyan : Dad! It's 'I'm sorry'? *disbelief*

Taehyung looked at his son in disbelief and Alice shook her head

Alice : I-it's okay! You don't need to--

Taehyung : I'm sorry! Alice! I'm really sorry! *soft*

She blinked, surprised, Taehyung was never one to apologize But here he was, looking at her with regret, with shame, She didn’t say anything but she just reached for his hand, squeezing it lightly

Taehyung held her hands back when Taehyan came to them and harshly yanked his dad's hand

Taehyan : Remove Your dirty hands from hers! *angry*

Taehyung : *scoffed* You really are my son, aren’t you? *annoyed*

Taehyan : what do you think? Mr Kim? *smirk*

Taehyung saw the exact copy of himself in his son and cleared his throat, he stood up from the floor and put his hands in his pockets

Taehyung : A-alright! now go to your room! This is between your mother and me! It's a personal matter! *cold*

Taehyan : No? *scoffed*

Taewon : N-no! *annoyed*

Taehyung : Oh excuse me? It's my room--

Taewon  : W-we're not leaving Mumma alone with you! D-dad! You made her cry! *sad*

He hugged his mother tightly and before Taehyung could reply to his younger son, other interfered

Taehyan : What if you do it again? *cold*

Taehyung : *crossed his arms* I swear, you both are giving me a headache! *cold* Please go from here! It's your dad's order!

He glared at both of them but none of them moved an inch, Taehyung scoffed and pointed his finger on Taehyan when they heard a knock on the door

Rm : Tae! Alice! Will you please help me? She's crying badly! *worried*

He came inside the room, adjusting Taesha in his arms as she thrashed, her little fists clutching his shirt tightly, Alice stood up immediately But before she could take a step forward, Taehyung was already there, He took Taesha from RM’s arms without hesitation, cradling her against his chest, The moment she was in her father's embrace, Taesha’s sobs softened into little whimpers, She clung to him, burying her teary face into his neck, her tiny hands gripping his shirt as if she was afraid he would disappear

Taehyung : Shh! Princess! Appa's here! *soft*

The same man who had been yelling moments ago now stood in the middle of the room, swaying his little daughter in his arms, his touch impossibly gentle, he stroked her hair and his strong arms held his daughter securely as he slowly rocked her from side to side

Taehyung : It's okay now! Don't cry! Baby! *soft*

She stopped crying and Rm crossed his arms in front of Taehyung who smiled a little

Rm : Seriously? I was holding her for fifteen minutes, and she was screaming like she was being tortured, You take her for two seconds, and she stops crying? Unbelievable! *scoffed*

Taehyung : *chuckled* She knows who her real hero is! *proudly*

Taewon : *looked at his sister* she's smart! *smile*

Taehyan : *scoffed* and Dramatic too!

Taehyung ignored his son's complement and looked at Rm

Taehyung : Sorry hyung! It's just she didn't come to me since morning! *soft*

Rm : It's okay! *smile* I don't know how it feels like to be a girl dad but yeah I can surely feel it as a uncle! *chuckled*

Alice smiled at them and looked at Taehyung who kissed on his daughter's head

Taehyung : I’m sorry, princess! Appa was too busy being stupid today! And also Your Kookie uncle ruined my mood! *annoyed*

Alice narrowed her eyes and understood that it's something about Jungkook when Rm put his hand on Taehyung's shoulder

Rm : we'll sort it out! Tae! Don't worry! *smile*

Taehyung nodded and They both looked at Taesha who was staring at them as if she can understand everything, Rm ruffled her hairs and smiled

Rm : Well, I’ll leave you guys to it! I have enough stress handling business! *chuckled*

Taehyung : Sure hyung! And thank you! *smile*

Rm nodded and left when Taehyan got a call from Jaemin, he turned to Taewon and put his mobile phone back

Taehyan : Are you coming? I & Jaemin are playing video games!

Taewon : *shook his head* No! *pout*

Taehyan : Okay then I'm going--

Taehyung : What? No! Take him with you! *annoyed*

Taehyan : But he denied--

Alice : Taewon! Baby! Please go, come on! You should sleep now! *smile*

Taewon : B-but you? *worried*

Taehyung : Don't worry! Your dad is not a monster who will eat her! *rolled his eyes*

Alice : Tae! Please! *soft*

Taehyung went to other side and Alice hugged his son with a smile

Alice : I'm okay! Baby! And look I wanna sleep too--

Taewon : Sure? *concern*

Alice nodded and he kissed on her cheeks before running out from the room with Taehyan, Alice smiled and turned to Taehyung who was playing with his daughter and she was giggling, clapping her hands, and looking at her father's face

Alice locked the door and turned to Taesha's crib when Taesha noticed her mother, she stopped giggling and opened her arms for her

Taesha : Mumma? *doe eyes*

Taehyung : Mumma is here, Princess! *soft*

Alice's ears popped out when she heard Taesha's voice, she turned to her and Taesha pouted at her

Taesha : Mumma! *sad*

Taehyung blinked not understanding the matter, Alice’s eyes softened, immediately understanding what her baby meant, She reached out her hands, silently asking Taehyung to pass their daughter to her, Without a word, Taehyung carefully placed Taesha in Alice’s arms with confused eyes, Taesha's tiny fingers gripping Alice’s dress,she sat on the bed, adjusting Taesha on her lap, as the little girl relaxed, ready to be fed

Taehyung understood the matter that She's hungry, he smiled and laid his body beside Alice, watching them in silence, The sight of Alice holding their daughter so gently, so lovingly, stirred something deep inside him, He had yelled at her, Scolded her, Made her cry And yet, here she was, still being the perfect mother to his child, still looking so soft and beautiful even after what he had done

Taehyung swallowed hard, His daughter had unknowingly calmed his anger, and now all that was left was the shame of his actions, he wanted make things right with Alice, but Taesha needed her mother the most,For now, he just needed to there, waiting for the moment when he could hold his wife and tell her what his heart wanted to say

Taehyung waited for a while but fell asleep, Alice looked at his sleeping figure and looked at her daugher back who also slept in her lap, she smiled and stood up, she laid her in crib and as she put her down, sudden gasp left her lips as she felt herself being lifted off the ground

Alice : T-Tae! *shocked*

she whispered in shock, her hands instinctively clutching onto his shoulders

Alice : Y-you were sleeping! *shocked*

Taehyung said nothing, his grip firm yet gentle as he carried her in a bridal style, Alice's heart pounded against her chest as he walked toward the bed, his expression unreadable, He sat down, keeping her securely in his lap, his arms wrapped around her waist

Alice : *gulped* T-Tae, what are you--

Before she could even complete her sentence, his lips crashed onto hers, A gasp was swallowed between them, but Taehyung didn’t stop, His lips moved with passion, with urgency, as if he was trying to say everything he couldn’t put into words,After what felt like an eternity, he finally pulled back, his forehead resting against hers , Alice was breathless, her wide, dumbfounded eyes staring into his, Her lips tingled, and her cheeks were flushed

Alice : W-what was that? *breathing heavily*

He cupped her cheek, his thumb gently stroking her skin and his eyes wanted to see her more

Taehyung : I hate seeing you cry, and tonight, I was the reason for your tears! I'm really sorry! Alice! *soft*

Alice’s eyes softened, She had been hurt, yes, but seeing Taehyung this vulnerable, this regretful, made her heart ache in a different way

Taehyung : You didn’t deserve that! You never interfere in my business, and even if you did, I had no right to treat you like that! Sorry! *looked down*

Alice : It's okay! Tae! I can understand! *smile*

Taehyung smiled back and kissed her on cheeks before grabbing her waist tightly, she tightened her grip on his shirt and hesitantly looked up

Alice : T-Tae! *mumbled*

Taehyung : Hmm! *cold*

Alice : I know you were upset earlier, but I still don’t understand, What exactly happened? *pout*

Taehyung sighed, rubbing a hand over his face as he leaned back slightly

Taehyung : It was Jk! *annoyed*

Alice : Jk oppa? *confused*

Taehyung : *nodded* He wants to take Mingyu out of the mental asylum! *annoyed*

Alice : *shocked* Mingyu? You mean the same Mingyu who--

Taehyung : Yes! The same bastard! *angry*

Alice felt a shiver run down her spine and she swallowed hard

Alice : But why? why does Jk oppa want to free him? *confused*

Taehyung : *scoffed* Because he thinks Mingyu has changed, Jk still sees him as his best friend and believes that five years in an asylum have made him better! *rolled his eyes* He’s convinced that Mingyu regrets what he did, but I don’t buy that bullshit! *angry*

Alice : And you told him no, right?--

Taehyung : Of course I did! But he’s stubborn! He thinks we're being cruel, that we're not even giving Mingyu a second chance, But I don’t care! I won’t risk Y/N’s safety! *cold*

Alice nodded and she felt Taehyung's grip on her waist tightened

Taehyung : And as if that wasn’t enough, I have another headache too! *annoyed*

Alice : W-what's that? *confused*

Taehyung : Hwang! *annoyed* He’s been insisting that he wants to marry her!

Alice : *gulped* Is that a bad thing? T-tae! they loved each other--

Taehyung : That’s the problem, Alice! I don’t trust him! I know he’s been with Y/N for years, and yeah, he’s been good to her, but I can’t just hand my sister over to someone like that--

Alice : Someone like what? *confirm*

Taehyung : He’s not like us! Alice! He doesn’t know the dangers that come with being tied to our family!  He thinks he can protect her, but he doesn’t understand how deep this life runs, Y/n's the only sister of Korean mafia king! And do you really think that the kid like Hwang can protect her? *angry*

Alice : B-but--

Taehyung : And I know my Princess! She’ll always put others before herself! If anything ever happens to that Idiot Hwang, she’ll break herself to protect him, and I can’t let that happen! *angry*

Alice : *sighed* T-tae! I know you love Y/N more than anything, But don’t you think she deserves to make this choice for herself--

Taehyung’s grip on her waist tightened slightly as his jaw clenched

Taehyung : Alice! Don't start! *cold*

Alice : *gulped* I’m not trying to go against you, Tae! I’m just saying Y/N and Hwang love each other--

Taehyung : Love isn’t enough in our world, Alice! Safety is!

Alice : Then let me ask you this, Tae! have you ever seen Hwang make her unhappy? Has he ever given you a reason to doubt his love for her? They’ve been together for years, She has never questioned you, never fought you on anything, except for this! Don’t you think that means something?? *concern*

Taehyung : That’s the problem, Alice! She never questions anything, She never fights back! She just listens and obeys! Except for That Hwang! *scoffed* And that scares me! What if she’s blinded by love? What if he’s not the right man for her--

Alice : oh come on Tae! You can't judge him even after 5 years and I saw the love in his eyes! He's the perfect choice of y/n! Trust me!

Taehyung : But--

Alice : Hwang looking at her like she was his whole world! Even when they argued, I saw how much Hwang cared, how he would do anything to protect her! *smile*

Taehyung : *gulped* B-but I-I just can't--

Alice : Y/N will always be your sister! Tae! She loves you, But you have to let her live her life! Right? You can't control it! *concern*

Taehyung was silent for a long time before he finally nodded

Taehyung : I'll try not to interfere in their lives! *annoyed* but if he ever tries to hurt her, I'll kill him! *angry*

Alice : *smile* so you're agreed for their marriage?

Taehyung : *cleared his throat* D-depends on hyungs! *annoyed*

Alice smiled and nodded after reassuring that at least Taehyung understood her

At that time,

Suga was walking toward his room, rubbing his temples after a long, exhausting day, His mind was already half-asleep when suddenly, he heard hushed voices coming from their daughters, Yaana & Jihye's room

Jihye : He's so cute! Unnie! *smile* And his smile..ugh! It’s like sunshine on a rainy day! *blush*

Yaana : *chuckled* Really? *soft*

Suga : *in mind* cute? Smile? Sunshine? Who's this damn boy! *shocked*

His father instincts kicked in and he paused mid-step, His ears twitched when he heard them again

Jihye : And his voice? Don’t even get me started! I could listen to him talk all day! He’s just perfect! *chuckled*

Suga : *in mind* W-whoever he's! not in my house! *angry*

Yaana : So! When are you going to tell hobi uncle? *smile*

Jihye : *scoffed* Unnie! You think I have a death wish?! If he finds out, I’m done for! He’ll probably lock me in this room for life! *rolled her eyes*

Suga : *In mind* Damn right, he will! *proudly*

He took another step closer, intending to push the door open but his sock slipped on the floor And With an ungraceful thud, he crashed inside the room, Jihye and Yaana flinched but when Yaana saw her father, she jumped from the table and run to him

Yaana : Dad! Are you okay? *worried*

Jihye : U-uncle! Are you alive? That was so bad, should I call appa? *shocked*

Suga groaned in pain and sat on the floor, Yaana pouted and Jihye offered him a glass of water

Yaana : Dad! you should be careful! You’re not young anymore! *pout*

Suga : Are you calling me old? Princess! *shocked*

Yaana : N-no? Dad! You're my handsome dad! *smile*

She kissed on his cheeks and he smiled but he immediately shook his head and crossed his arms in front of them

Suga : forget about my handsome face! And tell me Who is this boy you were talking about? *annoyed*

Yaana & Jihye froze and exchanged a look when suga just stared at them

Jihye : W-who? *nervously*

Yaana : a boy? *nervously*

Suga : Don’t play dumb, Jihye! I heard everything! Cute boy, nice voice, etc.. you were simping in my house? Under my roof? While I’m still alive! *annoyed*

Jihye : oh that boy! *nervously*

Suga : Yes that boy! Who's he? *annoyed*

Yaana : *nervously smiled* dad! He's just no one! Let's not discuss about that--

Suga : No! No! No! We ARE talking about that! who's he? tell me fast! *annoyed*

Jihye : H-he's just..umm.. A guy from school--

Suga : *nodded* listening! Name, Age,Family history, Blood type, Criminal record! Tell me fast!

Jihye : woah!! Woah! Uncle suga? Criminal record?? *shocked* he's just 12! Chill--

Suga :I am chill! Baby! But you won’t be if you don’t tell me who this boy is! *cold*

Jihye : Having a crush isn't a crime uncle! *annoyed*

Suga:  BOYS ARE A CRIME! understand? Young lady! *annoyed*

Yaana : dad! That don't even make sense! *disbelief*

Jihye : This is why I didn’t want to say anything! Uncle Suga, you’re worse than my dad! *annoyed*

Suga : Oh thank you! I take that as a compliment! *smile*

Jihye : huh! You're unbelievable--

Suga : tell me fast otherwise I'm calling your dad--

Jihye : what? No--

Suga : I'm dialing--

Jihye : okay fine! He's Kevin! *pout*

Suga : *widened his eyes* WHAT? KEVIN? That Kevin?? That Brat? Yoon's bestfriend who always prank on us? *shocked*

Jihye : T-that was years ago! Uncle! He's changed now--

Suga : Out of all the boys in the world, you like only him???? I need water! Kids these days! *closed his eyes in frustrstion* I need to talk to Hobi about this, Maybe even with Jin hyung, We might need a family meeting! *annoyed*

Jihye : WHAAATTT? Uncle suga! That's not fair--

Suga : Everything is fair in love, War and fatherhood! *annoyed*

He stood up from the floor and turned to his daughter

Suga : What about you? Do you have a crush? *narrowed his eyes*

Yaana : W-what? Appa, please. No boy in school even dares to look at me, because Yoon oppa threats everyone! *annoyed*

Suga : that's like my boy! he understood his responsibility in young age ! *proudly*

Jihye : oh really? Uncle Suga! Well, guess what? Yoon oppa has a crush too! *smirk*

Suga froze and started coughing hard looking at Jihye

Suga : w-what? *shocked*

Jihye : Yes! And you know what's the best part? *smirk* she's Kevin's sister! In fact he has friendship with Kevin just to be with his sister!

Suga’s soul left his body, His smirk completely disappeared as his eye twitched, he never liked that kevin boy and now his son likes that boy's sister

Yaana : Appa, are you okay? You look like you just saw a ghost! *worried*

Suga : WHERE. IS. YOON? *Angry*

Suga marched out of the room and yana & Jihye ran after him

Jihye : Uncle wait! Don't kill him! *worried*

Suga came to his son's room where  Nihaan was reading his book and Jihun & Yoonjun were playing video games with their headphones on, Yoonjun noticed the looming shadow of his father and slowly turned his head

Yoonjun : Umm dad? *confused* Why do you look like you’re about to explode--

Suga : You tell me! *crossed his arms* or should I say Kevin's sister? *angry*

Yoonjun & Jihun started coughing hard and Suga glared at Jihun

Suga : Oh so you know about it--

Jihun : N-no? What are you saying? Uncle, I just want water, I'm coming--

Yoonjun : You're not going anywhere! *angry*

Jihun rolled his eyes and Yoonjun nervously turned to his dad

Yoonjun : D-dad! Who told you about that? *nervously*

Jihye : Opps! *shrugged*

She ran behind Suga and Yaana looked at her brother who was glaring at them

Yaana : I-I didn't say anything! *pout*

Yoonjun : Jihye! *angry*

Suga : Don’t change the subject! Since when did you start liking a girl? Seriously a GIRL? *annoyed*

Yoonjun : U-umm dad! *nervously* look! I-I just have a little crush on her--

Suga : What do you even like about her? Huh? HUH? Tell me right now! She's not a random girl but Kevin's sister and you know how he's! A prankster! *annoyed*

Yoonjun : B-but dad! Rhea isn't like him! She’s just really nice.. And smart..And pretty...And she bakes cookies for me! *blush*

Suga : *gasped* COOKIES?! OH, SO NOW YOU’RE BEING FED BY A GIRL! *weird*

Jihye : *smirk* cool! Uncle Suga! Tell me! if we get married, Kevin and his sister will technically be your in-laws! *laughed*

Suga : arghh! Never ever! DELETE THAT SENTENCE FROM EXISTENCE RIGHT NOW! *annoyed*

Jihye : I'm just saying! *laughed*

Suga : *closed his eyes* I need peace! *fake cry*

Yoonjun : and I need a new family! *annoyed*

Suga : what did you say? *angry*

Jihye : *giggled* and I need some popcorn!

Just as Suga opened his mouth to yell again, Aria entered the room with her usual calm and composed aura, She looked at Kids and looked at Suga back

Aria : Suga! What are you doing here? And Why are you screaming? *annoyed*

Suga : Do you know what our son just confessed?! This little boy of yours has a CRUSH! And not just any crush, it's Kevin's sister! The audacity! The betrayal! The--

Yoonjun : *sighed* dad! Actually mom already knows about it! *nervously*

Suga : WHAT? *shocked*

Aria : *rolled her eyes* yes! And for god's sake! Leave them alone! Suga!

Without another word, she grabbed Suga’s wrist and dragged him out of children's room while he whined like a child

Suga : Aria! Where are we going? I need to lecture him properly! *angry*

Aria : No, you need to STOP! Suga! *annoyed*

She dragged him to their room and pushed him on bed, he sat on the bed and Aria crossed her arms

Aria : Don't you dare to stand up from here--

Suga : You're not taking this seriously, Aria! *cold*

Aria : *scoffed* You know what I'm not taking seriously? YOUR OBSESSION WITH RUINING EVERYONE'S LOVE LIFE! *angry*

Suga : arghh! Excuse me? *Disbelief*

Aria : *narrowed her eyes* First, you threw a tantrum when Hwang wanted to marry Y/N, even though he genuinely loves her, And now, you're doing the same thing to your own son, Just because YOU had an arranged marriage doesn’t mean everyone else has to follow the same path, suga! *angry*

Suga : That has nothing to do with this! I’m just..Yoon is too young for it! *annoyed*

Aria : He's 12, Suga! And she's not his girlfriend, he has just a crush! Jimin also had a crush when he was 12 , right?

Suga : Yeah he had! And not only crush, he had so many girlfriends but I don't want yoon to turn into Jimin! *rolled his eyes*

Aria : So now you don't like your own brother! *scoffed*

Suga : N-no! It's not like that! That’s different, We..

He suddenly stopped, realizing that any argument he had would just get shut down immediately

Aria : Oh? Go on, I'm listening!How exactly is it different? *angry*

Suga : I-it just is! *avoiding eye contact*

Aria : You're impossible! Suga! Do you even realize how ridiculous you sound? What are you afraid of? That Yoonjun might actually be happy in his love life? *angry*

Suga : N-no! I'm afraid that he's too young to handle heartbreak! *annoyed* girls are--

Aria : girls are? What? *angry*

Suga : *cleared his throat* I-I mean not every girl is like our family members you know! *nervously*

Aria : *rolled her eyes* Suga! love isn’t something you can shield him from, And you don’t even know if this girl will hurt him, What if she turns out to be the best thing that ever happens to him like Y/n met with Hwang? *smile*

Suga run his hand through his hairs and stood up from the bed, Aria looked at him for a while and suddenly Suga turned to her

Suga : I really don't like when you make sense! *annoyed*

Aria : *smile* I know!

suga : Alright! Fine! I won’t say anything about Yoon's crush. But if that Kevin messes with my son, I will personally--

Aria : Suga? *cold*

Suga : okay! I-I will mind my own business, okay? *annoyed*

Aria : good! *smile* now Allow other love birds too!

Suga narrowed his eyes and looked at her

Suga : what do you mean? *confused*

Aria : Y/n and Hwang! Suga! *sighed*

Suga : Aria! please--

Aria : Suga! I know you're scared! That she’ll get hurt, That something will go wrong,That she’ll need us and we won’t be there for her, She’s your little sister, Suga! It's normal! But she's also an adult now, and she deserves the chance to make her own decisions, If we keep treating her like a little girl, she’ll never feel like she can stand on her own! *soft*

Aria held Suga's hand tightly whereas his eyes were fixed on floor, digesting Aria's words, he kept silent

Aria : Suga! if you keep controlling her life, one day, she’s going to stop confiding in you, She’ll stop trusting you, Is that what you want? *angry*

That hit Suga hard,He had always been protective of Y/N, but the thought of her losing faith in him, of her shutting him out, was something he couldn't bear, He sighed deeply, running a hand through his hairs, he looked at his wife who was waiting for his answer and slid his hands behind her waist to pulled her on his chest, she bumped into him and shockingly looked at him

Suga : Damn it! Aria! why do you always have to be right? *cold*

Aria : *chuckled* because it's my job as your wife! Mr Min Suga!

Suga little smiled and placed a kiss on her lips

Suga : okay! I won’t interfere anymore! If Hwang makes her happy, then I won’t stand in their way, But if Hwang messes up, I will personally deal with him! *cold*

Aria : *chuckled* of course my overprotective Husband!

She wrapped her hands around his neck and Suga smirked picking her up in bridal style, she gasped loudly and widened her eyes

Aria : W-what--

Suga : You just said you're my wife! *smirk*

Aria : S-so? *doubt*

Suga : There's something wife must do for her husband! *smirk*

He threw her on the bed and she crawled back

Aria : W-what? Suga! This wasn't planned--

Suga : *chuckled* babe! was any of our night planned? *shook his head*

He took out his belt and hovered over her, making her scared and nervous at the same time

Suga : You're mother of my 2 children! Aria! Still you're afraid of me? *smirk*

Aria : *gulped* T-that doesn't change anything, Suga! Y-you're unbearable---

Suga : But your husband! So all the best! *smirk*

He grabbed her hands locking them on her head, placed a soft kiss on her neck, Aria closed her eyes and shook her head on his desperate needs

On the other side,

In Rm's room,

RM sighed, leaning back on the couch in his room as he ran a hand through his hairs and looked at jhope who was sitting opposite to him

Rm : Jk's been struggling with this for so long! I don't know how to make him understand that some mistakes can’t be undone! *sighed*

Jhope nodded, tapping his fingers on the table in thought

Jhope : I can understand him! Rm! Mingyu was his best friend! But he also kidnapped Y/N, That’s not something we can just forget, no matter how much Jk cares for him! and Suga hyung is right in this matter, we can't go against him!

He looked at his wife who sighed heavily

Jiah : Hobi! You're right but Jk feels guilty, Mingyu was his friend And now, watching him suffer in that mental asylum for five years, Jk probably thinks that if he had done something earlier, things wouldn’t have ended up this--

Euna : But it's not Jk's fault! Mingyu made his own choices,Y/N went through hell because of him! Jk shouldn't mind about him!

Jhope : That’s the issue, Euna! Jk sees both sides, his best friend's pain and his sister's trauma! And he’s stuck in between, trying to choose the right thing! *shook his head*

Rm : *nodded* And no matter what choice he makes, he feels like he’s betraying someone! *closed his eyes* I don't understand what should we do now!

Jiah looked at her Husband who was rubbing his temple, she hesitated a little and turned to him

Jiah : Hobi! What if we talk to Jk? Not as his older, but as his friends? Maybe he needs to hear that it’s okay to let go, I'm sure Jk will listen me! *worried*

Jhope : *sighed* You think it’s that easy? We all know Jk! Once he cares about someone, he never gives up on them,He’ll fight for Mingyu, no matter what!

Jiah : Then what do we do? We can’t let Jungkook make a decision that might hurt Y/N again, Hobi! *annoyed*

Rm : We need to find a way to make him see reality! That even if Mingyu is his friend, Y/N is his sister first And she deserves to feel safe! *cold*

Euna : May be we should involve Y/n in this matter! May be if she directly talks to jk, he'll understand--

Rm : No! Never! Y/n shouldn't be involved in this matter! You don't know how fragile she's! She can sacrifice herself if she sees Jk like this! No! *annoyed*

Jhope : you're right! Rm! We can't take that risk! And you already know about Hwang! If he gets to know that we support Jk for this, he'll become a volcano! *scoffed*

Rm : *flipped his hairs back* Hyung... I totally forgot about his condition! what do we do about it? Should we agree to their marriage?

Jhope :  Honestly, I don’t have a problem with Hwang! He’s the best choice for Y/N! He’s been by her side for five years, and we know he genuinely loves her!

He leaned back on the chair but Rm looked down with a sigh

Rm : That’s what’s killing me, Hyung! We’ve always had her with us, Watching over her, protecting her, She’s our little sister And now… she’ll belong to someone else! *sad*

Jiah and Euna exchanged glances before Euna sighed and moved closer to Rm, She placed a gentle hand on his shoulder and Rm looked aside

Euna : She’s not leaving your lives, Joon! She’s just starting her own like we do? *soft*

Jiah nodded, wrapping an arm around J-Hope

Jiah : And she’s not going far, It’s not like she’ll forget about you all, She’ll still need her brothers, just in a different way! Hobi! *soft*

Rm : We know! Jiah! We’ve spent years protecting her,How do we just… let her go? *annoyed*

Jiah : Rm! Hwang knows how much she means to you, He’s not going to take her away from you, He’ll love her, yes, but he’ll also respect her bond with you! And I believe him!

Rm : *nodded and sighed* I know if we don’t let her go, we might end up losing her in a worse way!

Jiah : That's the smart Rm I know! *smile*

She smiled at him but Rm didn't smile a little, Jiah and Euna exchanged knowing glances, a playful smirk appearing on their lips

Jiah : You know Euna! this whole conversation is making me remember something! *pout*

Euna : Let me guess… the time you were sneaking around in school with J-hope? *smile*

Jhope coughed hard and widened his eyes before looking at Euna

Jhope : Yah! You don’t have to say it like that! *embarrassed*

Jiah : *laughed*I was his junior, Euna! and he still had the guts to date me, He used to wait outside my class, acting all cool like he wasn't there for me, but the entire school knew! *rolled her eyes*

Jhope : Yaah! Why are we talking about this? *embarrassed*

Rm : Because you were shameless back then, Hyung! You thought no one noticed, but even the teachers knew! *rolled his eyes*

Jiah : Exactly! I still remember when Jin oppa called me into the college campus just to ask if I was dating His brother from the senior batch! Arghh! That was so scary! *gulped* I can still imagine cold faces of Jin oppa and suga oppa!

Jhope : Because I was discreet you know! *proudly*

Jiah : *scoffed* discreet? And you? Please! That’s like saying Rm never breaks things! *rolled her eyes*

Rm : *scoffed* I don’t break things that often!

Euna : *scoffed* Says the man who broke my bed the first time he came over to my apartment!

Jiah & Jhope exchanged a look and widened their eyes, Rm looked at them and slammed his hands on the table

Rm : broke the bed means I mistakenly fell on the bed and because of my weight, it broke! *embarrassed*

Jiah : *laughed* oh I see!

Jhope : and you call me shameless! *scoffed*

Rm : Okay, fine, but at least I wasn’t caught dating my junior in broad daylight! *rolled his eyes*

Euna : Oh, really? And what about you secretly dating me after we met at that business conference? *smirk*

Rm froze for a second, eyes darting towards Euna

Rm : T-that was different! *nervously*

Euna : Oh? So dating your junior is bad, but dating someone from a business conference and keeping it a secret for months is fine? Joon! *annoyed*

Jhope : *winked* Euna, I like your logic!

Euna: Thank you jhope! *smile*

Rm looked at them in disbelief and run his hands through his hair

Rm : I-I was being responsible--

Jhope : Yeah, sure And I was being discreet in school! *smile*

Jiah : sure! *laughed*

Euna : *chuckled* See? We’ve all had our moments! So maybe, just maybe, we should stop stressing so much about Y/N and Hwang, Joon!  If we found our way, she will too!

She put her hand on Rm's hand and he nodded a little

Jiah : Exactly!  Let’s just support her the way we wanted to be supported back then! *smile*

She smiled at Jhope who took a glance at Rm and they nodded in sync

Rm & Jhope : Fine… but if Hwang ever messes up--

Euna & Jiah : We know, we know! *rolled eyes*

Jiah: You’ll make his life hell! *sighed*

Rm : Exactly! *cold*

Euna and Jiah sighed, knowing their husbands would never stop being overprotective, but at least, they were slowly learning to let go

On the other side,

In Jungkook's room,

When Y/n came inside the room, her feet stopped on the door when she found the mess around her, scattered papers, broken glass, and overturned furniture But before he could fully process it, she saw Jungkook was laying on the floor, she directly run to him and sat beside him

Y/n : O-oppa! jk oppa? *shocked*

Jungkook blinked his eyes open, the dull ache in his head reminded him of the storm that had raged inside him some time ago, He turned his head and saw Y/N sitting beside him, her face buried in her hands, her shoulders shaking, His heart clenched and he immediately hugged her

Jungkook : Y-y/n! Why are you crying? *soft*

she didn’t respond and Without thinking twice, she reached out and hugged him tightly

Y/n : O-oppa! Are you okay? *crying*

Jungkook : Shh Y/n! I'm fine and please don't cry! Hyungs will beat me if they see you cry! *smile*

Y/n broke the hug and looked at his bunny smile, she playfully hit on his chest and looked around

Y/n : Don't change the topic! Look at this room! Look at yourself! What happened to you, oppa? *worried*

Jungkook : I just… I don’t know, Y/N! My head was a mess! Everything felt wrong, and I lost control! *sad*

Y/n : *gulped* I-is it about M-mingyu? *scared*

Jungkook : Who told you about him? *shocked*

Her hands were shaking and Jungkook immediately pulled her into a hug

Jungkook : Princess! Don't be scared! I'm here! look! *worried*

Y/n : I-I insisted Hwang to tell me everything! Oppa!  *sob*

Jungkook sighed, leaning back against the wall, His head was already hurting from all the things he had to process, and now knowing that Y/N was aware of everything just added to the weight, Y/N reached out and placed a comforting hand on his knee to get his attention

y/n : O-oppa! I-I know he was your bestfriend! a-and I already warned Hwang that we're not forcing anyone for marriage! He respects you, Oppa! *worried*

Jungkook : *shook his head* It’s not about me not allowing it, Y/N! I’m not against your marriage! Hwang is a good guy, and I know he truly loves you but--

He sighed and rubbed his temple

Jungkook : It’s just… I need time to think about Mingyu! *sad*

Y/n Then take your time, Oppa! I trust you to make the right decision, for me, for yourself and for Mingyu! *smile*

Jungkook looked up at her, his heart warming at her trust in him, He gave her a small, tired smile as after being tortured under mingyu, she still thinks about her brother's feelings

Jungkook : Thanks y/n! You're the best sister in the world! *soft*

Y/n : *shook her head* No! Oppa! you have the biggest heart in this family, and You're too kind that everyone uses you! sometimes, you need to let go your feelings, Some people need to face the consequences of their actions, You don’t have to carry this burden alone, oppa! *looked down*

Jungkook : *nodded* I understand! Y/n! And trust me, I won't hurt you again!

She nodded and looked around

Y/n : Now, should we clean this room before the others barge in and make a big deal out of it? *annoyed*

Jungkook : *chuckled* Yeah, let’s do that before Jin-hyung starts lecturing me for the next three hours!

Y/N laughed, relieved to see her big brother smiling again, Even if the weight on his shoulders hadn’t disappeared, at least he wasn’t carrying it alone anymore

At that time,

In SEOUL,

The cold splash of water jolted Mingyu awake, he immediately sat up on the bed and four hands held him properly, His vision focused, and the first thing he saw was Hwang standing in front of him, his jaw clenched, fists tightened and he looked beside him to see his guards were holding him

Mingyu : Oh! Hwang! *laughed* What a pleasant surprise!

Before he could say another word, a hard punch landed straight on his jaw, making him fall back against the bed, The impact sent a sharp sting through his face, and for a moment, he tasted blood

Hwang : *gritted his teeth* I swear, the only reason you’re still breathing is because you’re Jk’s friend, Otherwise, you’d be dead by now! *angry*

Mingyu chuckled, his laughter echoing through the empty walls of the asylum like a madman, His eyes glistened with insanity as he looked back at Hwang

Mingyu : But you won’t do anything, will you? Because as long as Jungkook is on my side, you’re powerless! *smirk*

That was it, Hwang’s anger took over, His fist connected with Mingyu’s face again, this time harder, making the man groan in pain, He grabbed Mingyu by the collar and yanked him forward

Hwang : I don't fuking understand, Mingyu! You were Jk's best friend! What the hell is wrong with you? *angry*

Mingyu chuckled and his smirk vanished into a cold face

Mingyu : You! *gritted his teeth* you're the reason! Hwang! You snatched my Y/n--

Before he could complete the sentence, Hwang punched him hard and pulled him closed by his collar

Hwang : DON'T YOU DARE TO TAKE HER NAME! *angry*

Mingyu : *scoffed* You destroyed my life, Hwang! You'll regret!

Hwang : *smirked* listen to me carefully, you psycho!

His grip tightened on his shirt and he glared at Mingyu

Hwang : The moment you step out of this place, you’re dead! *cold* The second you even think about Y/N again, I’ll make sure you take your last breath! *cold*

Mingyu stared back at him, but Hwang wasn’t done, With one final push, he shoved Mingyu back onto the bed with force, making his head hit the wall

Hwang : and don't you dare to trap Jk! *cold* you failed as a friend but I'll never leave his side! mind It! Stay here, rot here, or die here! Your choice!

And with that, Hwang turned around and walked out, slamming the door shut behind him, Mingyu held his hairs tightly and kept his head low thinking only about how to escape from there
