It is the continuance of "Melancholic Love"
The morning air was crisp. Weather was a little cold today, sunlight trying it's best to show up somehow, trying to spread warmth even for a while.
The similar was the situation here with Jungkook
After that conversation with Taehyung the other day, he cried, cried and cried till his body couldn't take it anymore and he fell asleep exhausted.
Considering his situation, it was expected that he would take rest for a bit, but that was not the case at all. As soon as the clock ticked at 6 in the morning his eyes shot opened with heavy breathing and sweaty forehead.
He didn't stay long and got up from the bed and walked to the washroom to take a bath.
After taking bath and wearing a fresh set of clothes to keep his already shivering body a little warm, he stepped out the room and walked towards the kitchen downstairs.
As soon as he reached there, his steps halted.
Hobi was there, still in his pajamas and stirring a pot which spreaded the smell of tea, making the atmosphere in the area a little warm.
As soon as he saw Jungkook, he gave him a small tired smile and spoke
Hobi
Good morning koo koo
Slept well? *asked while smiling a little*
Jungkook for a moment just stared at him and after a moment gave a small nod
Both knew that it was a clean "lie".
He slept anything but well
Hobi turned off the stove and filled two cups with the hot tea.
He placed the cups on the table and motioned Jungkook to come and have it.
Jungkook moved quitely and sat across him. His hands finding the cup and sighing a little feeling the warmness spreading through his hands. It felt good. It felt good as it felt like the only thing keeping him present there.
He took a small attentive sip and letting out a small humm when the warm liquid touched his chapped lips and dry mouth.
Hobi observed him for moment and then he chose to spoke
Hobi
Didn't go well with him, did it? *asked sadly*
Jungkook
*looked up for a moment but soon cast down his eyes*
Hobi
Jungkook what do you want to do now?
Hobi
Taehyung didn't seem to let it go anytime soon
Hobi hesitated for a moment before continuing anyway
Hobi
How about we go back?
Hearing the question Jungkook's head snapped up. His eyes were wide hearing the question.
Hobi
*looking at him with hesitation*
Jungkook
We are not going back hyung *said in more like a whisper*
Hearing him Hobi's eyes saddened
Hobi
Then what now Jungkook?
Jungkook for a minute didn't say anything and took another sip from his tea
Jungkook
I'll be going to Taehyung's *said without meeting his eyes*
Hobi
*frowned* What do you mean?
Didn't you see how he behaved the other night?
Jungkook
*scoffed* Don't act like we don't deserve that treatment now hyung
Hobi
*frowned but nodded after that*
How can he deny it when it was the truth anyways. Taehyung was his friend, and what he did? He felt like if he could reverse the time then he would have first led Jungkook to Taehyung's instead of taking him so far away.
That stung more than he expected
Jungkook
You should go back hyung *said with a small voice*
Hobi
What!?
ofcourse not! I'm not leaving you here alone!
Jungkook
*sighed while putting down his cup with a small final thud*
Jungkook
I'll be staying at Taehyung's hyung *said with a straight face*
Jungkook
*nodding* Yes hyung.
I realised my mistake but hyung I won't be able to live knowing that here Taehyung my husband and my little baby are all alone once again
As soon as he finished saying it, his eyes filled with tears
Jungkook
I can't let go of my small baby anymore hyung *tears flowing down*
Hobi was shoked would be an understatement to be honest.
Hobi
What!? Are you crazy Jungkook? Taehyung doesn't even want to see our faces and you are saying that you'll go and live with him!?
Hobi
Are you for real right now!? *hissed*
Jungkook
Taehyung don't get any say in this Hyung *said while trying to steady his breathing now*
Jungkook continued, now his voice a bit steady than earlier
Jungkook
I'm still his legally married husband. We didn't get divorce.
Jungkook
So it's my right to stay at my own house, isn't it hyung?
Jungkook stood up while taking his cup to the sink
Jungkook
So it's decided Hyung. I'm going back to my home
Jungkook
I'll do anything to get my family back *said while glancing at Hobi sideway*

Chapter 2
The next morning, Jungkook stood outside the Kim Mansion with his luggage. Hobi insisted to drop him off but Jungkook didn't let him saying it's his battle now.
He took a deep breath while trying to calm his nerves. All the mental preparation which he did earlier seemed to vanish within seconds leaving behind only the dreadful feelings.
He shook his head quickly
Jungkook
No, it's not the time for this Jungkook.. you've created this mess and now you are bound to make it right
Taking some more deep breaths, his trembling fingers pressed the the doorbell
He waited for a minute before the front door opened revealing the face a new maid he assumed
Maid
Yes? How can I help you sir? *asked politely*
Jungkook visibly gulped before opening his mouth to mutter some words
Jungkook
I-uh- Is Ta-ehyung here?
Jungkook
*nodded quickly while biting his lips nervously*
Maid
Yes, Master is home.
You can come in I'll inform him *said politely while giving him access to enter*
For a moment the maid's eyebrows furrowed as Jungkook entered with his two huge luggage
Nevertheless she closed the door behind and lead him towards the hall
Maid
Please have a sit sir, I'll inform master
Jungkook
*nodded while taking every detail of the place*
Being there was something which Jungkook never expected. But now being here, his heart felt at peace, it felt like returning home after a long trip which was exhausting, both mentally as well as physically
He sat there in the quiteness which his thoughts were anything but quite
Lot of what if's clouded his already messed up mind making him more restless
But soon his thoughts stilled as he heard sound of footsteps approaching him from behind. Foot steps which were too commanding, too calm and which carried the authority which people admires as well as fears about
He visibly gulped and licked his dry lips while his knuckles turned white
On the other hand Taehyung was about to wake up Haneul for school when the maid came and informed him about a visit
He got confused that who could it be ao early morning. So he quietly came out of his room and walked downstairs
But as he came face to face with the other person, his calm face immediately hardened and eyes narrowing
Taehyung
What are you doing here? *he asked in a dangerous low voice*
Jungkook
*immediately stood up from his place*
Jungkook opened his mouth to say something but it seemed like words died in his throat
Taehyung
*hissed* Why are you here Jungkook?
Jungkook
I a-m going to st-ay here *stuttering badly*
Taehyung's eyes narrowed deciding whether he heard it right or not, but only that time his eyes landed on two suitcases near Jungkook and his eyes shot up
Taehyung
What nonsense! Do you really think that after everything you can just show up out of nowhere and decide to invade my space!? *said while gritting his teeth*
Taehyung's knuckles turned white while veins bulged on his forehead. His face dark as ever and not a single bit of emotions can be detected
Jungkook visibly gulped before continuing
Jungkook
You are not forgiving me and that's fine Taehyung, because I know my deeds are indeed unforgivable
Jungkook said this time without stuttering. He needed to speak or else there'll be no more second time
Jungkook
But I do deserve to earn your forgiveness and his forgiveness as well
His last words were barely above a whisper but Taehyung heard them anyway
Taehyung
You don't need our forgiveness Jungkook. You are free as you wished to be. So live your life instead of wasting it here, with us
Taehyung said those words too calmly but the weigh those words carried were nearly impossible to handle
Jungkook's eyes burned but he refused to let himself broke now, he needs to be strong for him, for them
Jungkook
I'm still legally married to you Taehyung so it gives me enough right to live in this house *said with determination*
Taehyung
*raised an eyebrow before chuckling bitterly*
Taehyung
You do remember that we are married huh? Strange
Before Jungkook could say anything Taehyung said something which left him speechless for a moment
Taehyung
I'll tell the workers to clean the guest room *said without any emotion*
Taehyung
Can't take away your rights now, can I?
Saying that he didn't stay any further and walked upstairs
