Fragments of Us
1
it was the day everything changes in jungkooks life
the day his grandfather told him that he is supposed to fulfil their family needs
that he needs to agree for this political marriage
jungkook has been single all his life, dedicating all his time in the company
the jeon company was in the top 3, 3rd position but once he took over he soon reached top one
he effortlessly pushed the Kim family to the 2nd and never let them pass him not only for staying in top but for his personal revenge
it was because something happened that led to his father's death so he put all his energy into his company not taking a break
jungkook couldn't say anything to his grandfather because whatever he says goes and if this political marriage helps him in whatever reason, he was ok to do it
still uneasy but maybe little hope
Grandpa jeon
she's sara *smiles* it's a promise to be fulfilled kook
Jeon jungkook/Ml
do I really need to grandpa?
Grandpa jeon
it has to be done *sigh* just go meet her and I'm sure you'll like her
Jeon jungkook/Ml
alright then, I'll go for you
Grandpa jeon
tonight I've arranged a date for you both
Grandpa jeon
try and get to know each other
jungkook finished up his work and sat on the car as the driver drove to the destination
deep down he doesn't feel right
he didn't want to do it but it's his grandpa's order
ever since his dad passed away it was a mess for him and it's his grandpa who helped him to be better
and it's not like he has a girlfriend or a boyfriend
tbh he was attracted to both so he didn't mind whoever it was as long as they could live in harmony
jungkook has worked on countless projects, billion dollar deals signing without any emotion or reaction.
he felt that maybe he could find a family and live happily
he never believed in anything, his family was not exactly warm, yes his father showed love and was there for him but his parents always fight giving him a trauma which led him to not having much hope for love and relationship
in an hour he reached the restaurant where he was supposed to meet his supposed wife
he doesn't know what to expect
so he stepped out of the car and took a deep breath
he stood rooted there for some reason not wanting to go inside at all
but he knows he has to he looks at the time and realised he is a bit early
so he knew she wouldn't be there so he relaxed a bit
he still had 20 minutes to himself
so he casually walked inside the restaurant, people greeting him and bowing down with smiles
he is from the jeon family and not to mention he also has a company in the side which he started at the age of 21 before his father's death and it topped as well but it stayed discreet unlike the jeons
he started this with his bestfriend and it solidly stayed in the 4th position just outside the top 3
which was because he and his friend decided not to surpass into the top 3
but in the 2 Years he raised it on his own with his friend without anyone's help
that's why among many young ceos he's the most respected and admired
he sat on his seat with his signature expressionless face
he was just 23 Year old currently
too young for this anyways, that's what he thinks but he didn't say anything and was scrolling through his phone
when he heard someone calling his name

Lee sara/jk wife
jeon jungkook?
Jeon jungkook/Ml
*looks up* yea
Jeon jungkook/Ml
you must be lee sara
Jeon jungkook/Ml
please have a seat *business like smile*
Lee sara/jk wife
*smiles and sits oposite him* yes
atleast that's what jungkook felt
Lee sara/jk wife
so.... has grandpa jeon spoke to you about the deal?
Lee sara/jk wife
our families had a deal,you know the lee family right? that's in the 3rd position
Lee sara/jk wife
well this deal was done 5 years back *smile* I'm sure grandpa jeon must have told you
Jeon jungkook/Ml
*smiles* no actually
Jeon jungkook/Ml
to be honest I have no idea and my grandpa asked me to meet you
Lee sara/jk wife
*surprised* you didn't know?
Jeon jungkook/Ml
*shakes his head*
before they continued speaking they decided to order something before talking
soon their table was covered in food
Jeon jungkook/Ml
so, can you elaborate on the deal?
Lee sara/jk wife
*laughs* you are talking like it's a deal with some business men
Jeon jungkook/Ml
isn't it one?
Lee sara/jk wife
*smiles* yes it is
Sara gets a call but she rejected it and looks back up at him
Lee sara/jk wife
well I am OK with this business marriage. I was prepared as soon as the deal was signed anyways
Jeon jungkook/Ml
so when are we supposed to get married ? according to the deal
Lee sara/jk wife
when I turn 21
Jeon jungkook/Ml
so you are 21 now?
Lee sara/jk wife
*nods* I just turned 21
Lee sara/jk wife
we can get married and give it some time if it goes ok then fine but if not we can always get a divorce you know *smile*
strangely he was ok with this deal
yes he hoped maybe he could start a family but he figured his parents marriage started this way too so he stopped the thought as soon as it formed
they are doomed to fail if they think about getting serious
before he could speak Sara's phone kept ringing
Jeon jungkook/Ml
you can take the call, must be urgent
Lee sara/jk wife
no it's fine, it's just a friend of mine
Lee sara/jk wife
we had an argument so she's like this
Lee sara/jk wife
so what do you say?
Jeon jungkook/Ml
I agree, we can stay in this marriage for a year and decide what to do next
Lee sara/jk wife
OK then it's perfect
Lee sara/jk wife
but I also have one request
Jeon jungkook/Ml
what is it
Lee sara/jk wife
since this is a marriage of convenience I was thinking maybe we should keep this low-key
Lee sara/jk wife
alteast till we figure out things
Jeon jungkook/Ml
*nods* I'll talk to my grandpa
Jeon jungkook/Ml
let's get married with only your parents and my grandpa or just signing papers
Lee sara/jk wife
I think we can sign paper, if by any chance we decide to continue this or fall in love genuinely then we can get married in real with everyone
Jeon jungkook/Ml
that sound like a plan *nods*
Jeon jungkook/Ml
it works for me as well
Lee sara/jk wife
*nods with a smile*
Lee sara/jk wife
*took a sip of her wine* tell me about you Mr.jeon
Jeon jungkook/Ml
there's not really much to say about me honestly
Jeon jungkook/Ml
I'm sure if you've seen any news related to me online then that sums up the whole me
Jeon jungkook/Ml
no personal life but just a workaholic *smiles*
but this time the smile wasn't fake but genuine
Lee sara/jk wife
*stunned with his handsome smile*
Jeon jungkook/Ml
you must have plenty, you spoke very naturally to me so I guess you are a very social person
Lee sara/jk wife
yes you guessed it right
they had a conversation in a relaxing manner now
not at all how they came here not knowing what they were getting into
the dinner went on smoothly and they decided to get over with the marriage since it's only a sign of paper
After dinner both of them went their separate ways

Kim minjoon/MC brother

Kim minjoon/MC brother
and also *hesitates*
Kim minjoon/MC brother
I rummaged through his deepest part of the closet an-
Kim taehyung/MC
how dare you *screams*
Kim ji-soo
go on *eyes narrow*
Kim minjoon/MC brother
his clothes are so feminine in the deeper part, I think he wears these when he's out and hides it with his hoodie
he knew how much his parents hate him being gay
so he kept buying time, wearing things underneath his hoodie
till he gets a job and move out he needs to hide away and dress as a proper "man" according to his family
he doesn't wear women's clothing but crop top and silky cloths that screams gay
he is supposed to act like a man infront of his parents , always in black and more basic clothes
when he was 15 he discovered his sexuality, he always felt he was different
what others liked he didn't but he can't say that out loud
he only has few people who knows his sexuality
and they support him as well
but he's not so fortunate with his family
2 Years after learning what he likes, at dinner one night his brother was talking about how a classmate of his is kicked out of his family for being gay and what his parents said shattered him completely
they said he deserves that, and shouldn't be born
he did not exactly get love like his brother got from his parents, and he don't know why but he always feels like his mother is constantly disappointed in him
he had no way out now, they won't listen to him
so he gave up on arguing thinking atleast if he's abroad maybe he could be free
