"Good morning Sir Park." Eunwoo wished Jimin as he exited his house. He couldn't help but feel the sting at his entire being to see the absence of Aera beside his secretary. He could only imagine how much she must have had to endure to handle his unruly self last night.

"Good morning Eunwoo. Where is Aera?" He asked trying not to make it too obvious that he was dying to get that piece of information.

"She had an errand to do before we leave sir. She hasn't returned yet. We can wait if you want." Eunwoo proposed as he glanced at his watch.

"No. We will get to the office. I will meet her there." He said as he walked to the car angrily.

"Seems like both of them are pissed." Eunwoo muttered under his breath as he shook his head and entered the car.

"So..."

"So, why weren't we included before?" Jieun asked angrily, cutting Yoongi in between.

"Because—"

"Because you didn't trust us." Minhyuk spoke as he scoffed at him.

"Will you guys fucking listen to me first?" Yoongi groaned as he looked at the two.

The two in front leaned back as they watched Yoongi with a glare plastered on their faces.

"I swear...I am going to kill Aera for making me do this." Yoongi muttered under his breath as he raised his eyes to look at the duo.

"We needed enough evidence to proceed and we have got it." Yoongi said.

"Why aren't we attacking them if we have enough material to kick their ass?" Jieun asked in an aggravated tone making Yoongi hiss at her.

"Keep it down Jieun!"

"Let him talk!" Minhyuk said as he held his finger to his lips to shush her.

"Aera has been hired by Park senior to protect their family against this because he is certain that he is going to target them to take on an easier way for his business."

"This is so sick. I feel like ripping—"

"Jieun.." Yoongi sighed as he rubbed his palms on his face.

"We are here for the mission along with the police who are at our beck and call. We can't take a step unless we secure their base before taking them head on. We will have to wait and watch. Just observe your surroundings and note anything that comes handy and useful." He said as he looked around the lounge of MYTHE to find Aera entering. He immediately waved at her as she jogged slowly and halted before them.

"You couldn't tell me about this earlier?" Jieun asked as she rolled her eyes at her.

"I thought I would leave it to Yoongi. He is good at controlling you." She deadpanned before looking at the former.

"I am going to Jimin. You beware and we will discuss about this later at the condo." She said as she nodded at them and sauntered away to the lift to reach Jimin.

Aera had a hard time dealing with the situation she had faced an hour ago. She still couldn't remove that smug look on his face that she had seen when the truth had come to light.

"Aera! You don't understand! This is completely useless! He will just push me away!!" Rose said as she hit her fists in the cushion in front of her as she sat cross legged on the sofa in her apartment. She had been hiding away in that apartment in the excuse of managing some business when originally she had been crying and ugly eating buckets of ice cream while watching mean girls.

Aera had no idea why. So she did what she thought was going to end this stupidity.

"Nothing can be done. I have already called him." She said as she stood there watching Rose hyperventilating over the fact.

"No.....everything is over." She murmured under her breath and kept wiping her runny nose.

The ringing of the doorbell made both of them look at each other. Rose gulped hard as she slightly shook her head at Aera who just nodded at her in assurance.

"Aera? Where is Rose?" The male entered as Aera stood aside to let him enter.

"She is inside Mr. Jeon."

Jungkook frowned at her before walking in to find Rose sitting on the couch with her knees to her chest as she cried silently. Her hair was more messier with the messy bun that she had intended to keep. Jungkook paced up a bit to see her in that condition as he stopped a bit and looked back at Aera.

Aera just gave him a curt nod to which he advanced towards Rose and kept a hand on her shoulder. He could feel how her body was a bit warmer and she was trembling.

"Rose...." he whispered making the female lift her head as she burst out crying see him.

Jungkook couldn't understand what was going on. He still had no clue why Aera had called him here in the first place. Although he had his doubts that she knew that he was involved with Rose in more than a friendly way but he wasn't confirmed.

"I-I am s-sorry Jungkook..." Rose stuttered as she hid her face in her palms.

Jungkook knew one thing for sure. Rose had certainly not murdered one of his side cheeks. If she had then he would have known. He had always been attracted to Park Roseanne ever since he had seen her in the family get together that their parents used to attend every year. He had become friends with Jimin, who was two years older than him just to get a reason to meet his younger sister.

Over the years, with his evolving Casanova self he had tried to keep his 'crush' emotions towards Roseanne at bay because he had thought his respect for Jimin would have gotten sabotaged if his playboy self came anywhere near his sister.

But it had all happened one night, when both of them had been drunk and that had happened which he had dreamed off a lot about while doing it with other thirsty females. Ever since that day, they had kind of become fuck buddies. Not that he minded but he had always wanted more than that. To get his mind off these things, he would often hit up bars after work when Rose was busy with her business, to hit up some girls but he could never go beyond making out with them.

He was sexually frustrated and his body and mind craved for her. Park Roseanne. But he didn't know how she felt. He had encountered her being jealous at times when a random woman would saunter up to him when they were in public and say that she had enjoyed her time with him. When in reality, she would just be trying to get in his pants for not being able to do it the first time.

Now, seeing Rose crying like a child over something that he was completely oblivious to, made his heart clench and he found himself looking back at Aera who was maybe trying to kill him with her eyes.

"Rose...what is it? Why are you crying?" He asked as he knelt in front of her and took her hands away from her face.

"I-...I am sorry..."

Jungkook was growing impatient. He badly wanted to know what happened for her to cry in such a way.

"Calm down. Just breath and then tell me. I will solve it. I promise." He said as he rubbed her back to soothe her down.

"I...I have to tell y-you something." She said in between hiccups as she rubbed her chest on not being able to speak.

Aera ran into the joint kitchen to pour water for the poor girl. Standing behind Jungkook, she tapped his arm and handed him the glass which he immediately took. He made her drink the water as she gasped for some air and slowly stabilised her breathing.

"Now...tell me. What happened?" He asked as he sat down beside her and held her hands.

Rose gulped as she looked at him and then looked at Aera who was nodding at her. It looked to Aera as if all she was doing was nodding her head. She couldn't deny that she had been surprised that Jeon Fucking Jungkook had actually come on her call. She was very surprised to see him being so caring towards Roseanne and for sometime she had thought maybe he liked her too. But all of these were her assumptions and life cannot run on assumptions alone. There has to be proof.

"Jungkook....please forgive me....but I...." Rose was finding it difficult to speak. Looking at Jungkook, she could see how much he was holding back right that moment to not snap at her given to the fact that his patience level was smaller than a tea spoon.

"I am pregnant." There she said it. And closed her eyes shut.

A few seconds went by when she felt her hands getting released from his hold. She was afraid of looking up at him. She wanted to just disappear from the face of the planet.

She looked up to see a tear escape Jungkook's eye. Why is he crying?

"Whose is it?" He asked as he felt himself getting a bit angry. He had always chided himself from within for being Rose's first but the thought of another man being involved with her sexually was making him go insane.

Aera looked at the male in disbelief. She confesses to him that she is pregnant and he asks this? What the—

"Wha—"

"No Rose! Tell me who that fucker is!! How can he!! Urgh!!" Jungkook stood up from his place as he tugged at his hair and sat back down.

"How can you!!! You were with someone all this time!!! I didn't know..." he groaned.

Rose just looked at him in astonishment.

"What do you mean?" Her question made something snap inside him as he held her by her shoulders roughly and shook her.

"Because I love you damn it!!!" He shouted at her face making her go still. Her eyes didn't move from his face as he confessed his love for her and she could feel herself shaking when Aera pulled back Jungkook.

"What the hell are you doing!? She will get dizzy!" She said as she put a hand in between the two to prevent Jungkook from doing anything further.

"It doesn't matter now...you—"

"It matters..it matters a lot to you! Jeon Jungkook! Because you are the father of that child!" Aera spat at him.

She couldn't believe how she had allowed Jungkook to hug her. After he had heard about it, he had gone completely berserk. He couldn't stop himself from smothering Rose's face with kisses as she cried happy tears. She had confessed her feeling to him too and the couple had closed matters with the decision of keeping the news between the three of them for the time being. Jungkook apparently wanted some time to prepare himself in case Jimin set out on war when he knows about this.

Aera couldn't stop rolling her eyes as she exited the elevator and approached Jimin's office.

"Aera!! Please! Take this in. I need to contact the lobby to fix the intercom. It's broken." Eunwoo said as he handed Aera a couple of thick folders and rushed off.

"Guess...I am playing secretary as well." She said as she knocked the door and pushed in only to stop in her tracks.

I wanted make Jungkook come clean. He is a sweetheart and he deserves nothing but a good story line. 😉I hope you liked this chapter.
