In just two months, Jungkook had turned the company around. The change was impressive, and even those who doubted him, including Mr. Jeon, couldn't deny the quick improvements.
Profits increased, employee morale went up, and the company started getting noticed for its fresh strategies. Jungkook's leadership, once questioned, was now respected, even if some still didn’t fully like him.
However, not everyone was happy beneath the surface. Mr. Jeon and a few loyal supporters secretly plotted behind closed doors. They waited patiently, planning the perfect moment to strike and take Jungkook down.
And namjoon decided to redeem his wrongdoings by helping jungkook as much as he could so he decided to join the finance department after two days of deep thinking.

“Come here, cupcakes...” Jimin cooed in a soft, babyish tone as he carefully took little Johee from Jungkook’s arms. At the same time, Yoongi reached for Joohan, lifting him gently from Taehyung’s hold.
“Let your mom and dad have a special day today, okay?” Jimin added playfully, scrunching his face up in a funny expression that made Johee burst into giggles.
“Thanks for taking care of them, Jimin hyung,” Taehyung said sincerely. 
“Are you kidding?” Jimin grinned brightly. “I’m the one who’s lucky! These adorable little boba balls make my day. You two should go on dates more often, so I get to spend more time with them.”
Taehyung’s cheeks flushed a soft pink. 
Jungkook was talking with yoongi in a hushed tone.  After a few moments, he walked over to Taehyung, bending down to kiss both of his babies gently on the tops of their heads.
"Thank you Jimin... " Jungkook said with a warm smile. 
“Just go and have fun,” Jimin waved them off, cradling Johee close. “Let me enjoy my time with my little boba balls.”
Jungkook and Taehyung couldn’t help but chuckle at Jimin’s playful enthusiasm, but just as they turned to leave, Jimin’s voice rang out once more.
“Oh, and don’t forget… use protection!” Jimin teased, smirking mischievously.
Both Jungkook and Taehyung froze for a moment, their faces instantly turning a deep shade of red. Flustered and embarrassed, they exchanged quick, wide-eyed glances but said nothing in return.
Hand in hand, they quickly made their exit, walking away together, with soft smiles adoring their lips. 
The evening was warm, filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers as Jungkook guided Taehyung down a narrow cobblestone path. Delicate fairy lights hung overhead, casting a gentle glow. 
The path led them into a hidden garden, a peaceful retreat from the busy city that felt like it was just for them. Above, the sky was a stunning mix of soft oranges, pinks, and purples as the sun set, creating the perfect atmosphere for the special night Jungkook had in store.

Taehyung was wearing a simple yet elegant white shirt that fluttered softly in the breeze as he gazed around in wonder. 
He was captivated not only by the beauty of the garden but also by Jungkook’s thoughtfulness. Every detail felt deliberate, every step taken to make the night truly special.
“Where are we going?” Taehyung asked softly, curiosity and excitement is evident in his eyes.
“You’ll see,” Jungkook replied with a playful grin, squeezing Taehyung’s hand gently as he guided him forward.
