chapter 58

Jungkook’s revelation of his health condition, and the time left for him, caused chaos all around the world. Jungkook’s popularity was no joke at all. He had a huge fan following around the world. He became popular in Korea and other parts of Asia when he released his tribute song to his hyung with Taehyung. People gave them a name too-TAEKOOK. Seeing the success of the two boys, they were constantly asked to form a subunit and do more songs, albums together. 

After the conference, his massive fan following started increasing again upto a new height. Fans from all over the world sent heartfelt messages to him. All social media platforms were about to crash with so many people trying to connect to him. Some messages had a heart-wrenching goodbyes, some expressed gratefulness, while some were with appreciation for the actor.

Jungkook suddenly asked his mom to cook all his favourite dishes. His mom quickly agreed. A while later, Jungkook got up and started walking upto his room.

“Where are you going? Do you need anything?” His Dad asked him.

“Dad, I will just have a little rest. Can you wake me up after Mom is done cooking? I feel a bit tired.” Jungkook replied. 

“Alright. Go, have rest. Will wake you up.” His Dad replied with a smile and Jungkook turned back to walk again.

“Jungkook-ah, wait a minute.” His Dad stopped him again.

“Yes, Dad.” He replied looking curious.

Jungkook’s father went up to him and hugged him patting his back, which took Jungkook by surprise. He hugged his Dad back and smiled while snuggling in the warmth of his father. He was an adult, but he was still his Mom and Dad’s little boy. For them he never grew up and Jungkook never wanted to grow up.

“Dad, I love you.” Jungkook said with a heavy heart, his eyes welling up with tears.

“I love you too, my son. I wish I could make you stay a bit more longer. But we are so helpless. I hate myself for being able to do anything. You are so good that, even God wants you back.” His father told him.

“Dad, you’ve done enough already. Since I was 5, we went to America, you, mom, hyung and me, all had to stay apart. Our family was separated for so many years. I never saw you having a peaceful night. You worked hard during the day and then looked after me throughout the night. You did every little thing possible for him. There’s nothing more we can do now. It’s life after all. My time is over, so I have to leave. Nothing’s upto us anymore. So please don’t be sad and don’t blame yourself. If Mom hears this, she will break down. How will you comfort her then?” Jungkook spoke like an adult for the first time. 

“My son, when did you grow up so much? Look at you, explaining things to your Dad. Are you trying to comfort me?” His Dad asked him and he nodded.

“You succeeded. Now go, rest a while. Mom will be done soon. Will go help her. Go.” His Dad turned him to face the stairs and gave him a very careful slight push.

Jungkook went to his room and surprisingly Yugyeom and Taehyung were in his room.

“What in the hell are you guys doing here?” He asked them and they smiled.

“Come here, and I need you guys to talk it out whatever it is today, infact now itself. I will come back in the evening. Will stay over for night. And when I come, I want you guys like before. Promise me you will talk and sort things out.” Taehyung told Jungkook making him sit besides Yugyeom.

“C’mon, you guys are brothers. And to think practically this is the time when you should be talking and doing things like brothers do. This time won’t come back again. Yugyeom, scream, yell, shout, but talk it out. I know it’s difficult and hard. But if you keep in things, you will regret forever.” Taehyung said patting Yugyeom’s shoulder.

“We will.” They both replied together.

“Good, that’s like my boys.” Taehyung said with a smile.

He then kissed his boyfriend and gave him a hug before he left for home.

“I love you, kookie.” He said.

“I love you more.” Jungkook replied.
