Author POV

Y/n was waiting with Jiseok in her arms. She kept looking at the house and couldn't really calm down.

She was very worried about him. She knew his mother knew everything and she could not ignore all the thoughts that Jungkook would hurt very much.

At the moment, her heart weighed. Couldn't bear the pang of beats inside, a river of tears fell down. "God, why is this happening?"

Waiting and waiting, she saw Jungkook coming towards her and stood in front of her. She studied his face. He tried to look fine but obviously he looked like he was just after crying.

"How? How is this happening?" asked her.

His eyes gazed up at the sky, and didn't want to answer her.

"Jungkook.. Don't be like this. Why do you keep hiding things from me? Do you think I'm weak? That I can't do anything?" She tipped her head up to catch his gaze.

He switched his gaze straight on her. "I just don't want to talk about this today. Let's talk later" he said and whipped out his phone from the pocket, dialing a number and pressed it against his ear.

"Who're you calling?" asked her with a frown.

"Uber" he replied to her simply.

"What?"

"We're staying a night at a hotel" said him and then talked over the phone while walking a bit away from her.

Her frown deepened at the thought if his mother kicked him out of the house. But why did he act like nothing really happened?

Right after she saw him hanging up the call, she immediately went to him , "Jungkook, is this because.. Because your mother knows everything? So, she kicks you out???"

He took off his sweater, ignoring her even though she was waiting for him to answer her.

"Can you wrap Jiseok with this?"

She knew he was ignoring her and then took his sweater, wrapping around her son.

He was surprised at the cold, right after he took off his sweater. Then, he rubbed his hands together, trying to overcome the coldness that hit him up to core. She saw him doing that. "Aren't you cold?"

He was a little bit startled as he tried to appear fine to her but he just forgot that he made it obvious by rubbing his hands together. "No, I'm fine. I'm a man. Worry yourself" said him and then pondered around because standing like a statue made him cold.

She knew he was lying but there's nothing she could do to help him. She felt more guilt at the thought he was like this right now because of her.





Jungkook opened the hotel room door and then entered, switching on some switches. Y/n followed him from his back. "Jungkook" She called him.

He turned at her and he saw she was still looking at him with the same eyes that she wore since the chaos.

"Can you go back to your family????" asked her seriously.

He frowned and then about to turn his back to her but she quickly held his arm and then pulled back her hand to support Jiseok. "Jungkook, I'm serious. I cannot see you living like this. You hurt and you're just pretending like you're okay. Go back to your family before it's too late"

"Stop the nonsense" said him and then about to turn but she held his arm again.

"Jungkook.."

"y/n!" yelled him, irritated. His mind was messed up that he was losing his control.

She was startled by his sudden yell. Then, the room grew with Jiseok crying at the top of his lung.

Seeing Jiseok was crying because of him, he rubbed his hand on his forehead. Remorse of his action.

She held Jiseok tighter and then moved in rocking motion, "Shhh.. my good boy" She patted his body, tried to make him stop crying. And then she looked at Jungkook while patting Jiseok's body..

"Look y/n. I'm sorry. Yes I'm hurt and I'm not okay. I have worries. And I'm worried. I wanna be with you but I need some time alone now. Just for a moment. Take care of Jiseok. I want to take a bath" said him and then went into the bathroom.

She watched him getting into the bathroom. And then bit her lips as she was about to cry again. She swore he was really not okay, causing her heart to break.

Jungkook closed the door and then leaned his back against it. Eyes gazed at the floor about his feet.

Recalling the fight he had with his mother just now, it was too harsh. The way she kept calling y/n as a prostitute and his son as a dirty blood prostitute's son just hurt him.

Even though he said it did not matter whether his mother wanted to accept y/n or not, his heart couldn't lie. It mattered.

Slowly he went down on the floor and hugged his knees. He remembered his mother hurting y/n when she found out about his affair. What if his mother could hurt her again?

Worry.

He's worried.

And then Jiseok? What if she was also capable of hurting him too?

Overwhelmed by worries, he shedded tears and buried his face in between his knees.

After two hours in the bathroom, Jungkook got out and then he looked for y/n.

He saw she was already on the bed but she was still awake. Her eyes met him and he quickly looked away.

Walking toward the bed slowly, he laid beside her with his back on the bed.

She was still overwhelmed by many questions and she wanted him to talk about it but knowing he was irritated by it today made her quiet.

"Is Jiseok asleep already?" asked Jungkook, breaking the silence between them.

"Um"

Silence ran between them again. But then she remembered something important to tell him. She turned at him slightly. "Jiseok doesn't drink my milk so much. He needs formula milk, diapers and clothes too"

"I'll go get it now" said Jungkook but then she held his arm.

"It's okay. I mean tomorrow. Tomorrow, we're going to stay here again, right?" asked her.

Jungkook laid back. "I'm not sure. But you can't go back there. My mom knows you live there. I am worried if she hurts you again. I'll go pick up our stuff there. And I will buy the new house for us and we're going to live like we used to be again. So, don't worry. Then, he took a quick glimpse at her. Her eyes were worried and he could see that even under the dimmed light.

Thinking back, it wasn't her fault that she was worried. He turned at her and pulled her into his hug. "Stop worrying and sleep"

When he hugged her like that, a sudden sad emotion struck her again, making her emotion vulnerable to him. She stayed unmoved in his hug.

He could feel she was about to burst.

"What are you worrying about? Are you worried about me?" asked him when she was quiet like she was holding back her tears.

He heard her sniffing away her tears. He pulled her closer and stroked his palm against her back to comfort her. "I'm okay now. Go sleep, babe"

______________





In the morning, Jungkook went back into his residence but he was stopped by a guard at the front gate. "Young Master, you can't enter this residence anymore"

Jungkook frowned. A tantrum in a very early morning? "Are you kidding me??? This is my house, my properties"

"Madam Eunkyung doesn't allow you to enter no matter what"

He scoffed and laughed. "Lol, what rights does she have? This house is under my name. Open the gate" he said seriously.

But the guard didn't move even an inch causing his blood to start boiling.

"I told you to open the gate!" yelled him clearly.

But the guard just ignored him.

"Do you really have to go this way? I'll call the police"

"Madam said any of your threats will not work on her. Including what you've said just now"

"What?" Then he chuckled at the thought his mother really did this to him.

His eyes turned serious, he gazed straight at the guard. "Just open the fucking gate, I will get my things and I will fucking straight get out. The fuck so hard?"

The guard still didn't open the gate for him. Frustrated, he cursed again, "Fuck!"

After a while, he looked at his wristwatch. It became a waste of time to him if he was still here and got nothing. There's no sign that the guard would open the gate for him too. He didn't want to make y/n wait for him for too long.

But still the heat won't dissipate from his chest. He just wanted to go inside to pack the things for his son and y/n. He also needed a car to move around. And all were his things, where's his wrong?

"She really didn't joke with me. She really wants to make me strayed on the road like a peasant?? Fuck it" muttered him and then walked away.

He went to the mall and shopped for some baby basic stuff and clothes. After that he went to the counter to pay. He gave his black card.

The cashier took his black card and then swiped but the payment was rejected. She tried again but then the same thing happened. "Sir, your card can't be used," said the cashier and gave it back to him.

He frowned. Did his mother also freeze his card? This far?

He took another card. Unfortunately, it was rejected too. He handed another card again, watching the cashier swiped it, but it was also rejected.

He almost clenched his jaw. Then, he took out his debit card. The payment was finally successful.

It was expected the debit card would be successful but it didn't put his heart to ease. The amount of money in his debit card won't be enough.

He went to sit on the nearby bench in the mall. His world was quiet for a moment despite the loudness of the crowd in the mall.

He was steepled pensively. If things had gone like this, how could he feed his family? Did it make y/n to suffer again because of money?

Not only that. How much would the alimony be? How much to hire the lawyer as his divorcement with Seolhyun didn't settle yet.

He buried his face in his hands and then messed his hair, thinking about all the commitments he had.





Jungkook went back to the hotel room with shopping bags in his hand.

y/n quickly got off the sofa as soon as she heard Jungkook opened the door and then went to him.

"Oh, babe. I bought you clothes. Get changes" he said and handed her a shopping bag. "I also bought things for Jiseok. The milk, diapers, take a look if I'm missing something"

She took the shopping bag and looked at the inside. She didn't feel good about it. "Why don't you just go to the house and take our stuff from there? Like you said" asked her.

"I just want to buy new things. Easier" lied him.

"Lie" She didn't believe him. "It is because you're kicked out. Right?"

"Babe, no"

"Stop lying. Why do you keep lying to me? Why are you doing this to me?"

He walked closer to her, "Babe.."

"I just want you to be honest to me. Is it so hard??????"

He put his hands on his waist in pensive for a while. It's like he could not continue lying to her like this.

"Yeah. You're right. My mom took it all. She froze my cards. I'm going to be penniless any days" he paused, hard to utter, "Will you stay with me?"

"So, you're hiding this from me, because you think I will leave you because you don't have money now??"

"I can't pay for this hotel room anymore. And I can't either buy a house right now. Can you live like this?"

"Then we can rent a small house for us. What's so wrong, Jungkook? I will stay with you. I can live like this"

"y/n. This is not easy. This is not a joke"

"So, you think I'm joking now? Jungkook?"

He just looked at her eyes wordlessly.

"Jungkook. You said you want to be with me. But you can't trust me. All throughout, we've been together, do you think I'm with you because of your money?"

"No, babe"

"Is it because of the old days? The first time we met?"

"No"

"Because I was asking for your money if you want to sleep with me? Because I was pretending that I was rich? Because I used to be a wannabe? Shameless whore?"

"No! No, no. Babe??"

"Then how do you have such thoughts about me????"

"I don't have those thoughts. In the old days, all were my faults. I feel like I keep causing you to hurt. Up till now. I forced you to get pregnant and now we have a baby. But we're living like a homeless now. What if I can't take care of Jiseok and he did not grow properly? I am worried. How can I raise Jiseok like this?" he said and finally tears escaped his eyes.

She quickly tiptoed, cupped his face. "We can raise Jiseok properly. Together. Stop blaming yourself for the old days. I love you so much now, so please stop crying" she said and wiped away his tears with her thumbs.

She saw the tears welling quickly to his eyes again. As if he were a child, she again wiped away his tears.

"Please! Stop crying" she yelled. She could feel his face start to cold, breaking her heart even more.

All he was doing was crying, sucking the breath, lips trembling and choke on a sob. She ended shedded tears at the sight breaking her heart so much.
