Few minutes have passed, Jimin and y/n walk back in the mansion when boys were sitting in the living room. Taehyung look at them smiling happily.

she giggle to something Jimin said to her, her giggles were so soft just like music to his ears. she was holding a panda plushie in her hand.

"You guys took so long." Namjoon said. Jimin smile. he sat on the couch.

"you brought that for her?" Taehyung asked. Jimin nod. she looks happy. she wasn't terrified nor flinching.

"little one, can you go to your room, we boys have something to talk about." Jimin asked, she nod.

"J...Just d...don't l.. leave w..ithout te...lling me." she said and hug her plushie.

"Okay Ma'am, you will be informed." she give him a smile and walk toward the stairs.

"Be Careful with the stairs." He saw her nodding her head. Taehyung felt like she was avoiding him. he doesn't like it, she wasn't even talking to him.

"She is more comfortable with you." Jin said. Jimin chuckle and look at Taehyung who was in his deep thoughts.

"Ask what ever you want to." he said. Taehyung look at him.

"I know what's going on in your mind." Jimin look at his confused friend.

"How do you know her?" he asked. Jimin sigh.

"Hm...when we first met she was only 10. I still remember the day when I saw the tiny girl serving us at the dinning table. Dad and Mr. Kwan used to be a business partners, it was business dinner so I went with dad too. At that time I thought she was the maid's daughter but the way Mr. Kwan treat her was worse, later dad told me that she was his daughter, It obviously shocked me too. he treat his one daughter like a princess and other." Jimin scoff, his heart ache.

"She went through daily abuse, physically and mentally. Her sister even mock her. that bitch. I wanted to help her. I want her to live a peaceful life but dad stopped me. he said it wasn't our business. she is always scared. she is always insecure that no one will like her, that's what she is told. I can't even explain how many cruel things she had went through." Taehyung was listening to everything, he felt bad. he know he was treating her a bit badly too. he was annoyed by her stutters so much.

"why Mr. Kwan did that? she is his daughter for God sake." Hoseok said.

"I don't know......... Tae. I want nothing more. I just want her to be happy for once in her life. please don't make her feel more insecure. let her know that she is worth everything. she deserves love. give her a chance. she never disappointed anyone." Taehyung was feeling guilty now. his heart was aching badly and he doesn't know why?

did he really care about her?

They hear tiny footsteps coming into the room. she walk in holding a plate in her hand.

"What do we have here?" Yoongi asked smiling at her. she smile back.

"C...ookie" she said...

"Oh can I have some?" Jungkook said, she push the plate towards him.

"I want some too." Namjoon said standing up. she gave him some too. the boys enjoyed the cookie but Taehyung was deep in his thoughts when he saw her placing the plate near him.

"D...do y...ou want i....t I made t...hem for y...ou" she said. her ocean blue eyes look at him with so much Innocence, he really can't believe that her father was so cruel to this little girl.

He was guilty, he can't face her right now. he stood up and walk out of the room. her heart drop, sher eyes sadden when he doesn't even say anything and left just like that.

"Little one?" she said. she look at Jimin.

"It's delicious." he said trying to take her mind off of Taehyung ,she give him her cute smile.

"T...Thank y...ou" she said.

"We will be leaving now." he said and stood up. she look at him. she looks sad now.

" Don't be sad, I will visit you again and don't worry about him he will be okay,hm" he said, he pat her head softly. he pick up some more cookie making her giggle.

"I am taking those" 

"O...okay t..hen d..rive safely e..everyone" They wave their hands and left the mansion.

She think of going back to the bedroom. thinking of Taehyung too he left. has she done something wrong? Is he mad at her for something?

she make her way towards the bedroom and open the door. she look around but he wasn't there. she walk towards her bed and pick up the book on the nightstand.

should I ask him to read it to me?

will he be mad?

she gulp and try to find him. he might be in his office, she left the room and walk near his office when she suddenly flinch at the way he was shouting.

"WE WERE DONE LONG AGO, DON'T FUCKING CALL ME AGAIN." her hands started to shake, he will definitely hurt her, she took a deep breath and knock in the door.

"Come in." she hear his deep voice, she peek in and saw his back facing her

"What is it?" he asked with even looking at her, she walk in tiny steps while looking down.

"W....ill you....um...w...will y...you r.....ead m...e t...his book." she said. Taehyung turn around and look at her then to the book in her hand.

"Why? don't you know how to read?" he asked, to his surprise she shook her head. his jaw clenched and he close his eyes.

"I am busy." A small pout appear on her lips and her eyes sadden.

"O... Okay s..orry f....for d...isturbing you." she said and quickly ran out if the office, Taehyung open his mouth to say something but she was already out of his sight.

In the room.

She sat in the bed and hug her panda plushie tightly against her chest, he doesn't even make time for her.

why will he make time for me, I am just a burden on him.

Tears appear in her eyes, she is burden on everyone. she tried not to cry. she hear the bed room door open and Taehyung came inside.

he make is way towards her side. she look at him with her big blue eyes, he pick up the book and open it.

"where should I start from?" first she look at him in shock but then she smile.

Taehyung raise his eyebrows at her but only he knows how hard his heart was beating against his chest.

"P...Page 16. M.....om r...read it t...o p...page 1..6" she said. Taehyung nod his head and flip the pages.

He read the book to her and she just listened to him. his deep voice was just so gentle and comforting. she just want to hear it everytime.

but can she?

her eyes started to become heavy, she hug her plushie and lean on the headboard, Taehyung look at her, she was nearly asleep.

she was mumbling something but he couldn't hear it. he close the book and stood up. he careful lay her down on the bed and cover her with duvet. his finger caress her soft pale cheek.

he doesn't know why he feel like he has to protect her from every evil thing around her. from every person who have ill intentions for her.

Taehyung sigh and close the lights, he stood up and left the room leaving his sleeping wife in the warmth of his room.
