Jungkook stirred in his nap because of the shuffling noises around him.His husband just put him to a nap after having lunch and he don't know how long he was sleeping in.But it felt too relaxing that it irked him when his peaceful nap got disturbed in the middle like that.Who the hell chose to ruin his beauty nap like that?
His frown deepened when he found his husband and son whisper yelling at each other trying their best to keep it quiet but failing miserably as Jungkook can clearly hear what they're yelling over.
"You know nothing appa.It should be placed here not there" Eunwoo said snatching the books from Taehyung's hand who didn't wait a second to snatch it back.
"You're my son.So act like one and do whatever i say.Don't act like my dad" Taehyung glared as he placed the books in the top shelf neatly still side glaring Eunwoo, daring him to do otherwise.
"Don't be this stupid.How can eomma take it from there?He's not that tall" Eunwoo gently pushed Taehyung aside as he took the books from the top shelf before placing it in the bottom shelf.
"Look at me.I'm tall enough to pick it for him.So no need of your useless suggestions here young man" Taehyung pushed him back before taking the book from the bottom shelf ready to place it back on the top shelf but Eunwoo's hold on it didn't let him.
"You're planning to stay home all the time? No right? So how can eomma take it when you're not home?" He got a point there as he pulled the book towards himself.
"What if I'm? I'm staying here till the baby comes out.No no even after that too I'm staying here.I can't stay away from both of them" Taehyung shook his head vigorously, pulling the books back to his side which earned a scoff from Eunwoo.
"Then what about the company? You're a CEO.Don't forget that" he pulled the book to his side again to which Taehyung rolled his eyes.
"I'm taking a long leave.Who'll stop me now?" He said with a smug look.
"Then who'll go to the meetings and what about the projects going on?" He squinted his eyes at his dad who passed another smirk to his son.
"Ofcourse you.Who else" Eunwoo growled at that as his jaw clenched.
"You-"
"YOU TWO" Jungkook's yell echoed in the room cutting off Eunwoo's shout which earned the attention of the father son duo who's eyes widened as they snapped their neck towards the wide awake Jungkook.
"Come here" Jungkook gestured to come closer with a nod to which they both stared at each other.
"When did he wake up?" Taehyung whispered in a low voice.
"Who knows.Seem like it's so long that he looks so annoyed" Eunwoo whispered back when he found his eomma glaring at the both.
"What should we do now?" Taehyung asked in a nervous tone.
"How would I know? Told you not to make any soun-"
"COMING HERE OR WANT ME TO COME THERE?" Another irritated yell to which the both Kims didn't wait a second before obediently running over to the bed and standing infront of Jungkook in the attention position like the good boys they're.
"What was that? Why are you two yelling at each other? That too when someone is taking a peaceful nap here huh?" Jungkook furrowed his brows at the two who shared another questioning look with each other before looking back down.
"And where's all the files in that shelf? They're some important documents from the company right Tae?" Jungkook asked when he found the whole shelf empty.
"We arranged it all in appa's study room because we want to arrange these books here" Eunwoo answered showing the books to Jungkook.
Jungkook let out a heavy sigh looking at the books in Eunwoo's hand.He's not at all surprised at the number of books with the titles goes like...
'Guide to a healthy pregnancy'
'What to expect when you're expecting'
'What to do and what not to do during late pregnancy'
'Tips for Easy child birth at 40's'
'Welcome to an awesome motherhood'
'what the baby loves in the womb'
'The Art of breastfeeding' ....
And many more on top of Taehyung's study table too.
"Who's idea is this?" Jungkook asked with a blank face.
"Appa" "Woonie" they pointed at each other with the most innocent look on their faces which made Jungkook let out another sigh.
"Actually Jiminie suggested these books" Taehyung came up with the answer favouring both of them to which Eunwoo nodded quickly.
"And who asked Jimin hyung for the recommendation?" Jungkook raised his brow at the duo who again stared at each other cluelessly.
Jungkook watched with his squinted eyes how Taehyung gesturing Eunwoo to answer his mom as he already came up with an excuse so now it's Eunwoo's turn.
"Eommaaa~" Eunwoo pouted as he sat near Jungkook before side hugging him.He decided to go with the ultimate plan that is to melt his eomma by his cuteness to which Taehyung rolled his eyes when he found the real culprit nuzzling into Jungkook's warmth as if he's not the one who dragged Taehyung into this.
"So it was all your plan huh?" Jungkook said with a fake glare as he playfully twisted his ear who's hissed at the lil sting as his pout grew bigger.
"Jennie told me it's good to read these books.So i just told it to appa and he's the one who bought all these books not me" He explained in the most cute way he could which made Jungkook chuckle.
"Brat" he said with a smile as he stroked his son's hairs before placing a soft kiss on his forehead making Eunwoo smile cutely.
"It's ME who called Jiminie and it's ME who ordered all these books.So I'm also brat right? Now give me kiss too" Taehyung said in a really serious tone as he also sat beside them, leaning to Jungkook for his kiss but only got a glare from his wife.
"What? Kiss me too.Why only for him?" He raised his brows at that as he tapped his forehead with his index finger waiting for the kiss.
"Kiss my ass." Jungkook scoffed to which Eunwoo laughed silently from Jungkook's hold as he kept hugging his son dearly earning a glare from Taehyung.
"Who told you to buy all these? You know that right I'm too lazy to read even a single page from it? It was just a waste of your money and effort" Jungkook huffed with his one hand still patting on Eunwoo's head who just nuzzled more into the warmth of his eomma enjoying the scene of his dad getting scold from his eomma.
"Don't worry about that Koo.I'll read it for you.From today onwards we'll go to bed by reading one of these books." Taehyung said with a nod to which Jungkook just shook his head.He don't think it'll work.
"Now give me my kiss." He leaned again with closed eyes which made Jungkook smile at the man as he leaned forward to kiss his forehead which immediately brought a wide smile on Taehyung's face.
"Enough go away now.I can't breath" Eunwoo said in a muffled voice, as he pushed Taehyung back because his face was getting pressed between them as he was still in Jungkook's hug.
Jungkook couldn't help but to laugh when Taehyung gritted his teeth at his son who just ignored it hugging his mom more tightly.
"Stop wasting time here and go to the company.If you're lazing around here then who'll take care of the company matters? Irresponsible brat" Taehyung said in a displeased tone as he tried to pull Eunwoo from the hug who whined loudly clutching on Jungkook's arms.
"Let him be hubby" Jungkook softly slapped Taehyung's hands away before taking his whining son back in his arms who again nuzzled back into Jungkook's arms sticking out his tongue secretly at Taehyung who scoffed hard at that.
Taehyung couldn't help but to roll his eyes again at the sight of the mother and son cuddling each other totalling ignoring his sulking presence.
"This is why! Exactly this is why wise men say to never get children." Taehyung shouted in a silky tone.
"Which wise man said that appa?" Eunwoo asked innocently whereas Jungkook ignored the comment just like that as he kept caressing his son's head with his eyes closed, ready for another nap.
"Me! I'm that wise man.I regret making children now" he turned his head to the other side with a huff.
"Is that why you're soon getting one more baby?" Jungkook couldn't help but to burst into laughter at his son's question meanwhile his husband sat there speechless glaring at his son who smiled sweetly at his appa.
"My lil one won't be like you.He will be a good one not like you always trying to gain all the attention from my wife.If you're there your eomma doesn't even look at me.You made him forget my existence" Taehyung accused to which Eunwoo smirked.
"It's not my fault that my Eomma loves me more than he loves you right?Aww poor you" he faked a pout which earned another groan from Taehyung.
"Yup i know that too.Before you he loved me the most but ever since you came between us all his love and attention goes to you.I'm now his second priority No no third priority now and soon I'm going to be the fourth priority too" he sighed with a heart broken expression to which Eunwoo couldn't hold back but to laugh at his appa's dramatic acting skills.
"Oh my god it's four already.Time for eomma's afternoon refreshments.I'll be back soon" Eunwoo hastily broke the when he noticed the time on the wall clock as he quickly placed a peck on Jungkook's cheek before running out of the room.
Taehyung smiled shaking his head at the running figure before he laid on the bed with his head placed on Jungkook's lap who was sitting with his back pressed on the head rest.
"My lil one, be just like your hyung/oppa.Learn from him how to take care of your eomma.He's the best at it" Taehyung chuckled nuzzling his face into Jungkook's still flat tummy.
He slowly lifted up the cloth from there before pressing his face into the bare skin as he rubbed his nose on Jungkook's lower belly.
Taehyung felt Jungkook's fingers gripping on his hairs tightly as he kept pressing butterfly kisses on his tummy.He pressed another warm kiss on his tummy, expecting to hear his favourite giggles but pouted when he didn't get any response from his wife, only the grip on his hairs tightened.
Taehyung's teeth softly nibbled on the soft skin as he bite there expecting a smack on his head but still got no response from his wife which made him frown as he quickly got out of his sweater only to find his wife zoned out staring at somewhere else, with his fingers still moving inside Taehyung's fluffly hairs.
"Lil one, looks like your momma is thinking something hard?" He said a little loudly earning his wife's attention who looked down to his lap to meet his husband's questioning gaze.
"What's my baby thinking this much?" He asked taking Jungkook's hand from his hairs to his lips to place a few lil kisses on the soft palm which again got no response from Jungkook as he just stared at the man in his lap.
"It's the truth right?" Taehyung frowned at the strange question of his wife as he stopped kissing his palm.
"What?" He blinked confusedly.
"I know you were just messing around with woonie.You didn't mean anything you said.I know that but still isn't it truth Tae?" Jungkook said with a small smile which Taehyung can clearly say it's not a happy one.
"What are you talking about baby? I don't understand" He said wrapping his hands around Jungkook's lower waist turning his head to face Jungkook properly.
Jungkook sighed as his hands again made its way to caress Taehyung's hairs as his eyes focused only on his fingers moving inside the smooth hairs of his hubby.
"Isn't it truth that i purposefully ignored you after we had our kids? I pushed you away when you needed me the most" Jungkook's eyes turned glossy which earned a frustrated groan from Taehyung as he quickly got up from his lap.
"Koo we promised that we don't talk about this anymore.It's all in the past baby.We should let it go now" Taehyung said sternly to which Jungkook shook his head which caused the tear drop to roll down through his chubby cheeks which Taehyung was quick to wipe away.
"Still it doesn't make me feel any less guilty hubby" Jungkook said as he took Taehyung's palm in his hands stopping him from caressing his cheek.
"You don't have to be guilty about it Koo.It's not your fault.We both were struggling in our own ways.I was trying my best to keep the company safe and you were working hard at the home.It's not easy to take care of our eomma, and the two lil babies at the same time going for a part time job.You were the one going through more pressure baby.Not me" Taehyung said softly this time which earned another head shook from Jungkook who denied it right away.
"I had my babies with me, giving me hope and strength to keep moving on.But What about you? You didn't had anyone beside you to atleast share some comforting words with you.And when you would finally find some time what you did was running to me, expecting me to give you needed strength, some words of love but what did i do? I always pushed you away Tae, whenever you called me to talk i used to cut the call in middle telling the babies are crying, babies might be hungry, babies must be looking for me, babies, babies, babies.Always i put the babies over you that i didn't try to give you some of my time too even when i know what you're through." Jungkook sobbed as he hugged Taehyung close to him who just sighed at the outburst.For a hundred times Taehyung already assured his wife there's no fault of him that he understands his kids needed their eomma the most at that time.Not him.But still Jungkook is stuck there.He's not yet ready to forgive himself for that.
"Baby, I'm repeating again.You did nothing wrong.I was not a damn kid to cry over because you ignored me.It's such a silly thing baby.I'm mature enough to understand you're not only my wife but a mother too.I understand your struggles to take care of our kids, i understand they needed you more than me.So I'm not upset about it baby" Taehyung tried to explain and soon Jungkook broke the hug as he took Taehyung's face in his palms, cupping his cheeks.
"Then answer me honestly, didn't you felt a tiny bit of hurt whenever i rejected it when you asked to meet me out somewhere? Didn't you felt hurt when i cut the phone in the middle? Didn't you feel hurt when i stopped you from making love with me after that? Don't you dare lie to me" Jungkook's teary eyes were daring Taehyung to lie who kept silent at that.He wanted to say 'No he didn't feel any hurt at all' but he was scared to lie.
"You did feel hurt right? I hurt you right?" Jungkook eyes formed more tears as he stared at Taehyung who let out a shaky sigh.
"I'd be lying if i said it was not hurting me.It did hurt me.Everytime you made the excuse that the kids may cry so that you'll talk to me later, you didn't know that i was also crying at the other side.It was really hard for me.Dad left me even before i could learn about the business fully.I was so scared all alone in that broken company.The only strength i had is you.Your scent, your voice, your presence.But when you suddenly denied it all to me i couldn't help but to cry at my helpless situation.But still I'm telling you it's not your fault.You prioritize our kids over me and I'm proud of that baby, it shows how great of a mother you're.I can't thank you enough for that" Taehyung desperately said trying his best to end that topic here.But Jungkook is not having any of it.Blame on his pregnancy but his heart feels too heavy of the guilt which he held back all these years but now he just wanna lash it out to his hubby.He want to seek forgiveness no matter how many times Taehyung say it's not his fault.
"Great mother to your kids you say.Then what about your wife? A wife should be there to hold you in your hard times, should be there for you to lean on when it get too much for you.But what did i do? Pushed you away every single time " Jungkook felt angry on himself as his jaw clenched when he said that.
"You were there for me Koo.Whenever I thought of giving up, my mind always showed up your face and that was the only thing that kept me going without falling down.Even without being physically there, you were giving me the strength to move on.You're indeed the best wife for me Koo" Taehyung cupped Jungkook's cheeks, wiping his tears away who kept silent again.
"Now forget it baby.We don't need any of those memories in our life anymore." He said placing a warm kiss on his slightly shaking rosy lips.
"But still I have one doubt" Taehyung said after a few seconds of kissing Jungkook's lips who raised his brows at that.
"Even after everything solved, when i came back home you were the happiest.But still you didn't let me touch you in that way.Whenever i tried to make love to you, you'll always come up with any excuse to avoid it.Why was that? You were mad at me?" Taehyung asked again laying down with his head placed on Jungkook's lap who passed a weak smile to his husband.
"I was so insecure hubby.It was after years you were going to see my body again.And in between all that chaos i didn't give a mind about my beauty or anything.I was not at all prepared for you.I was so insecure of my body fat and all.Stupid me didn't had enough courage to expose my body to you even though i knew you wouldn't judge me or anything.It was just my stupidity hubby.I needed some time.But when i was ready for it you already stopped trying to take any steps further.So i also didn't try to initiate anything " Jungkook concluded with a sigh.
"And i thought you were mad at me or something.I thought you're not interested in getting intimate and i was making you uncomfortable when everytime you chose to sleep in the kids room.That's why i decided to keep a distance in the bed so that you won't get uncomfortable and atleast sleep in the same bed with me.How stupid I'm? Only if we talked about this, Only if we did open up like this, then this lil one won't be this late to arrive.But it's okay.We all make mistakes and learning from those mistakes and moving on makes it beautiful right?" Taehyung said pointing to Jungkook's tummy who chuckled at that.
Both had a faint smile on their faces as they stared at each other as Jungkook kept playing with Taehyung's hairs.
"So you forgive me?" Jungkook asked after a few minutes.
"There's nothing to forgive you in the first place.I wasn't mad at you neither i think you did anything wrong.It was you who again brought this topic up." Taehyung said with a fake glare.
"Still tell me that you forgive me " Jungkook whined.
"There's nothing to forg-"
"Just say it hubby please.For me" Jungkook's puppy were always Taehyung's cue to give in that he nodded his head with a sigh.
"I forgive you.Enough now?" He said in a boring tone to which Jungkook giggled finally making Taehyung feel peace.
"And even if you kill me today and tell me to forgive you, i would still do that right away.So don't put too much pressure on this small head okay? I can never stay mad at you" Taehyung said placing his hand on Jungkook's head who nodded in tiny with a fist of giggles blessing Taehyung's ears.
"Why's your face looking so red? Did you cry eomma?" Eunwoo almost yelled with his eyes glaring Taehyung as he just entered the room with a tray of snacks for Jungkook.
"Cry? Me? Pfft never" Jungkook said with a smug look as he took his banana milk from the tray.Eunwoo's focus shifted back to Taehyung who muttered a silent "pregnancy hormones" to his son who made an 'O' at the information.
"Yeah i forget how strong my eomma is.My strong eomma will never cry " Eunwoo played along which made Jungkook smile proudly immediately.
"And yeah talking about your strength eomma, appa said you killed that Emma.Is that true? Tell me the whole story please " he asked excitedly.That topic made Jungkook groan irritatedly.
"You don't have anything else to talk?I hate talking about her" Jungkook agressively munched on his salad.
"Eomma please.I wanna know" Jungkook sighed at the pleading eyes of his son.
"Yeah i also want to know." Taehyung also joined as he plopped back on the bed.
__________________________________________
I wrapped up the past a long ago.But i felt like it's needed to repeat again that not only Taehyung is responsible for them getting distant from each other.Both Taehyung and Jungkook are equally responsible for it.
