The elevator dinged and Jimin walked out of it, covering his neck with his hands. His face was buried to the floor as he made his way out of the company. He couldn't afford people seeing the love bite on his neck, where will he say he got it from?
*"See? You enjoy it too. Just tell them it's from your boyfriend"*
He remembered Jungkook' words and he clenched his jaws.
"That jerk," he mumbled beneath his breath.
Thankfully, he came across no one as he walked outside the company, though he received some weird stares with the way he was covering his neck, but no one tried to move closer to him. That, he's grateful for.
When he got outside, he met Jungkook resting on his car gracefully as though nothing happened between them.
"How could he after making me uncomfortable?" He almost yelled out.
"Why are you freaking out about it? You enjoyed it, didn't you?" His subconsciousness mocked.
Jungkook glanced at the entrance and a smile left his lips when he saw Jimin staring, more like glaring at him.
His eyes went to his hands which were around his neck and he cackled at his shyness. Why was he shy about that?
He raised his hand and waved his hand, motioning him to come over to him.
Jimin rolled his eyes as he took another path, walking far away from him.
Jungkook frowned. He took fast strides to him and in a second, he was already behind him.
"And, where are you going without me, Cara Mia?" He asked behind him.
Jimin ignored him as he kept walking, his hands still around his neck.
He gasped when he felt himself being lifted from the ground, his arms going around Jungkook neck reflexly.
He stared at Jungkook with wide eyes who in turn winked at him.
"Put me down" he whisper yell
"Why?" Jungkook muttered as he began walking to the car.
"People are staring" he whispered again.
"So? I love it that way" he smiled.
Jimin looked around and when he saw a few eyes on them, he hid himself on his chest till they got to the car.
The chauffeur opened the car as Jungkook gently placed him on the chair, he quickly moved far away from him, staring outside the window.
Jungkook sat beside him and the car drove out of the company.
"Baby?" Jungkook called but there was no response.
"Are you mad at me?" Still no response.
He sighed and brought out his phone and started pressing it.

KIM'S RESIDENCE***
Hyeonji was in the kitchen with the maid, preparing the dinner. Though the maid was totally against it, she(Hyeonji) insisted that she was doing it because she was bored.
"Miss, I can continue from here alone. You have to go to your room" the maid said.
Hyeonji smiled.
"You can't be doing everything alone, you know? I have to help sometime too" she muttered.
"Never knew cooking was this fun," she added.
The maid sighed.
"Can I continue cooking with you this way?" Hyeonji suddenly asked.
"What? No, I can't allow that. Your mom is going to kill me" the maid quickly refused the offer.
"Not like she cares about me anyway," Hyeonji mumbled.
"So, can I?" She asked.
"Miss....."
"Maria, can you make me a hangover soup? I'm having a headache" Mrs. Kim entered the kitchen, rubbing her forehead with a hurtful look on her face.
Her face turned sour when she saw Hyeonji in the kitchen with Maria.
"What is she doing here?" She half yells.
Maria was already panicking.
"I was trying to help..." Hyeonji was saying when Mrs. Kim cut her off.
"I wasn't talking to you" she looked at her hatefully.
She stared at Maria.
"Why would you allow her in the kitchen, huh?"
"You want to kill me like you did to my husband too, right? You want to kill me so you can live your life all you want, huh?" She yelled.
Hyeonji bit her lips which were trembling badly.
"I'm sorry" she whispered
"Stop saying that word!! Leave, you don't know how much your sight disgust me" Mrs. Kim said emotionlessly.
"Mom..."
"Now, or I'm gonna stab you with a knife"
Hyeonji ran out of the kitchen with tears cascading down her cheeks.
Mrs. Kim faced Maria who was almost at the brink of tears.
"If you ever allow her into the kitchen again, consider your job done" she warned.
Maria nodded her head repeatedly.
"Don't bother bringing my food to me, who knows if she might have added poison to it" Mrs. Kim said before walking out of the kitchen.
"This is too much for her" Maria mumbled as she sniffed.
****
Hyeonji buried her face in the bed as she cried loudly. She doesn't know why her mother hates her so much.
Because of her dad? She wasn't the one who killed her Dad, so why???
"Dad, I can't take this anymore. I wanna die too" she sobbed.
She continued crying till she slept off.
***
The car stopped just as they got to his house. Jimin stepped down from the car, holding his handbag with his, he jammed the door loudly.
He never spoke with Jungkook throughout the drive and he never did to. In short, the drive was filled with silence.
He was walking to the door when Jungkook stepped out of the car, he tucked his hands into his pocket.
"Cara Mia, are you truly leaving without a word?" He asked.
Jimin turned to him, an angry look on his face.
Jungkook sighed as he walked up to him.
"Stop acting this way, you're hurting me, you know?"
He raised his hand and touched the hickey on his neck.
"If you keep acting this way because I gave you a love bite then you're going to make me sad" he said.
"I told you not to do that again but you did" Jimin muttered.
"That's because you're irresistible, baby. I can't resist you" he said.
"Don't care about what others say, just care about mine. I love you and you love me too, that's all that matters. I'm your boyfriend so you shouldn't be shy about it" he muttered.
"Just stop ignoring me, I hate it," he said.
He nodded and hugged him.
"I'm sorry," he muttered.
"I love you, Cara," he said.
"I love you too" Jimin replied, burying his face on his chest.
Jungkook broke the hug and pulled his face to his, kissing him softly.
He pecked his forehead before releasing him.
"I'll pick you up tonight," he said.
He nodded with a smile before going in
Jungkook watched as he entered the room before entering his car.
Soon, the car zoomed off.
****
Jimin entered the house and removed his shoes, he placed them by a side before entering the house fully.
"Good evening, Mom" he greeted Hana who was setting the dinner on the table.
"Evening, durling," Hana said.
"How was work?" She asked.
"Fine" Jimin muttered.
"I'll be up in my room" he said.
"Okay. Come out for dinner, okay?"
"Yes Mom" Jimin went to his room.
He dropped his bag on the bed before peeling off his clothes. Afterwards, he entered the bathroom to have his night shower.
He returned back to the living room and met Chung Hee and Jimoon at the table.
"Good evening, Dad" he greeted, sitting down on the floor.
Chung Hee nodded in reply.
"Good evening, bro," Jimoon smiled.
Jimin stared at him with a creased brow before finally nodding his head.
"How was work? Was it stressful?" He asked again.
Jimin sighed before picking a spoon.
"What do you want, Jimoon?" He asked.
Jimoon frowned.
"What's that supposed to mean? Can't I greet my brother anymore?" He asked.
"Talk now or forget it," Jimin said.
"Tch! You should have acted nice a bit" he mumbled.
Jimin smiled.
"Jimoon, table manners," Chung Hee scolded.
"I was..."
"Shhhh"
Jimoon swallowed his words and pouts. He picked his spoon and started eating slowly.
"Jimoon, don't bother Jimin anymore, okay? If you need anything, just let us know" Hana said.
"Mom, he's my brother, okay? I don't mind spending all my money on him" Jimin said.
Jimoon smiled.
"Jimin is the best!" He raised his spoon high.
Chung Hee shook his head while laughing.
There was a sudden knock on the door and they all exchanged glances.
"I'll check," Jimoon said.
"No!" Jimin quickly shouted. What if that was Jungkook?
They all looked at him.
"I mean, I'll do that," he laughed nervously. He stood up and walked to the door.
He opened it and met V holding a box, he needed no one to tell him it was from Jungkook.
"Here, he said you should wear it tonight," V said.
Jimin sighed. He doesn't like that idea at all, but still, he collected it from him.
"Ermm.... I must say, you're very lucky" V smiled. He turned and left.
"What does he mean?" Jimin mumbled. He closed the door and went to join his family.
"Who was that?" Hana asked.
Jimoon stared at the box in his hand.
"Another gift? Can I have a look?" He asked.
Jimin eyed him before facing his parents.
"Mom, Dad, I'll be out tonight. I..." She bit his lips. He didn't even know how to explain it to them.
"You're going on a date?" Hana asked.
"Date??!" Chung Hee half yells.
"No, no," Jimin said.
"Then...."
"A friend's night" he quickly blurted out what came to his mind.
"Friend's night?" Hana asked.
"You've made friends?" Jimoon asked.
"Yea, at work" Jimin lied, pinching himself slowly.
"Wow! That's great. My son has finally made friends" Hana said.
"I'm glad you're finally doing things that's gonna make you happy," Chung Hee said.
Jimin breathed out in relief.
"I'll be going to my room," he said.
"Why? You haven't finished your meal yet" Hana said.
"I'm full," Jimin said and went to his room.
"My son has finally made friends, isn't that great?" Hana smiled happily.
Chung Hee and Jimoon nodded their heads in agreement.
****
Jimin stared at himself in the mirror, he twirled around and smiled as he admired himself in the mirror.
His phone rang and he picked it, it was Jungkook calling.
"Cara Mia, are you ready?" Jungkook asked.
"Yes. Can you park a few meters away from my house?" He asked.
"Why?"
"I'll explain it to you later, do that for me, huh?"
"Fine, I'm almost close though" Jungkook muttered before ending the call.
Jimin stared at himself in the mirror for the last time, after he was sure he's okay, he left the room, taking his steps slowly.
He met Jimoon packing the plates on the table, Hana and Chung Hee were absent.
"Whoa! Is this Jimin?" Jimoon whistled as he stared at his dressing.
Jimin rolled his eyes.
"Stop the exaggeration. Where's Mom and Dad?" He asked.
"In their room. Bro, you look so beautiful today" Jimoon placed the plates on the table and moved closer to him.
He looked around the house before placing his lips by his ears.
"Bro, you can trust me, yunno?" He said.
Jimin raised his brow
"I know you're going on a date... Jeez, you can't fool me, I'm not Mom and Dad" he muttered.
Jimin spanked his head.
"Keep your mouth shut, or else I won't give you any money again" he warned.
Jimoon quickly zipped his mouth.
"Trust me" he winked.
Jimin smiled before leaving the house.
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone" Jimoon yelled after him.
He shook his head till he got outside. He walked a little from their house and saw Jungkook' car at a corner.
He smiled before taking his steps towards the car.
Jungkook came down from the car, he smiled when he saw the suit bringing out his curvy shapes.
"You look hot, Cara" he whispered when Jimin finally got to him.
"You don't have to send someone over, you know?" He muttered.
"Why? You're my baby and I need to pamper you" he said.
He leaned closer and pecked his cheeks.
"Let's go baby, it's getting late" he placed his hand on his small waist and they both entered the car.
"You didn't come with your guards?" Jimin asked on their way.
"Yea..."
****
They got to the house and the gate opened automatically and Jungkook drove into the compound.
They stepped down from the car and Jungkook placed his hand around him before they entered the house.
They were led to the living room by the maid and they both settled on the chair.
"I'll call the chairman," the maid said.
"You don't have to, I'm here already," Mr. Jeon said as he appeared.
Jimin quickly stood up and greeted him.
"Good evening, sir" he greeted.
Mr. Jeon ignored him and faced Jungkook.
"Let's talk," he said and left.
Jimin and Jungkook both exchanged glances and Jungkook smiled reassuringly at him.
"You don't have to worry, I'll be back soon" he pecked his forehead before going after his dad.
Jimin bit his lips as he played with his fingers. He didn't even reply to his greeting and that bothers him.
Lisa appeared and her eyes widened when she saw Jimin.
"Bro!!" She screamed and rushed to him.
"When did you get here?" She asked.
"Not quite long," Jimin replied.
"You came with my brother?" Lisa asked.
"Yea...."
"Huhuh, that's odd. Dad didn't inform me about it" she mumbled.
"Let's forget about that. Now that you're here, why don't we make something together?" She asked.
"Huh?"
"Come with me" Lisa took his hand and dragged him out of the living room.
***
"Why did you act that way towards Jimin?" Jungkook asked Mr. Jeon when they entered his study room.
"Because I'm not in approve of your relationship anymore"
Jungkook laughed.
"That's a joke, right?"
"Why would I accept a guy that lives in Guryeo?"
The smile disappeared from Jungkook' lips when he heard that.
"How did you know that?" He asked, his face turning to a serious one.
"You really think I'm not gonna find out? That's why you hid from me?" Mr. Jeon shouted.
"So? What if he's from Guryeo, how has that gotten to do with you?" Jungkook asked.
"What?"
"I love Jimin and he's totally different from others, there's nothing you're gonna say that's gonna make me stop loving him" Jungkook said. He turned to walk away.
"Have you forgotten?"
He stopped and turned to look at his Dad, his eyes held anger in them.
"Have you forgotten what your Mom did? She abandoned us and went after my rich friend. Have you forgotten?"
"And then Hwasa, she aborted your baby and went after a rich man too. Have you forgotten all that?!" Mr. Jeon yelled.
Jungkook folds his fist, inside, he was smoking with anger.
"I haven't. But, that won't stop me from loving Jimin"
"And I'll never allow that even if I die!"
"You loved him before, what changed? Because he's poor?"
"Do you know why I've been bringing those ladies and guys to you? Because I didn't want history to repeat itself. But look at what you did!"
"I don't care if you accept him or not, I'm never leaving him. I guess this was why you asked us to come, but note this... I'm never returning here again!" Jungkook left the room, burning with anger.
Rage shot through Mr. Jeon's vein and he clenched his jaw.
"I won't stay still," he gritted.
****
Jungkook looked around the living room and met no one in sight. He was still angry. How could his father ask him to leave Jimin because he's poor? The man he has come to love more than his life.
He saw a maid passing by and he stopped her.
"Have you seen my man?" He asked.
"Yes, he's in the kitchen with Miss Lisa," the maid replied with a blush.
Jungkook went to the kitchen and a smile left his lips when he saw Jimin and Lisa, chatting and smiling happily.
His anger flew out of the window as his melodious laughter filled his ears.
"Oh... Brother, you're here" Lisa said when he noticed his presence.
"Yea" he walked to them and faced Jimin, staring at him with love and admiration.
Lisa smiled and cleared her throat.
"Erm, I have something to do. You can continue, bro" she said to Jimin and rushed out of the kitchen.
Immediately she was gone, Jungkook pulled Jimin to a tight hug, hugging him like his life depended on it.
"Is something wrong?" He asked.
"I love you" he whispered.
Jimin stared at his back, wondering what suddenly went wrong.
"Jungkook?"
"I'll never leave you, Jimin. Even if the whole world is against us, I'll never leave you" he muttered.
"I love you"
