"Hyung, I can't get one thing yet,"hobi said looking in front,as they were having a ride back to home.

"What's that?"jin asked now turning towards him, eunwoo in his lap.

"How did eunwoo manage to get off that chair. I mean, that was pretty much height, he still can't do that,"hobi stated with a confused expression and jin too found his logic correct.

"You're right,maybe someone at the store played with him and left him there. But we should've been careful."

"Sorry hyung, that's my fault,"hobi said playing with the cute little hand of his angel.

"Don't be sorry hoba,let's be careful here onwards."

The rest of ride to jin's place was quite joyful as the duo continued to play cute games, and jin watching them with adoration.

Taehyung was watching the conference recordings from past, taking note of all the points that he found useful and impressive. A bit more than an hour was passed,when the door to office opened and closed. No need to tell that it was CEO returning after the meeting.

"You're already at the end of this clip? How long have you been watching?" jungkook asked as he stood behind tae's chair_hands fished inside the pocket.

"Around 70 minutes? Yeah,"taehyung replied,now getting up from the chair after pausing the video.

"I'm ready for my next task,"he said looking at his CEO in front.

Jungkook nodded as he stepped towards his chair,

"What about lunch?"

"Figured out that you too are starving so I ordered some food. It must be on the way,"

"You're paying quite an attention to me,huh?"jungkook said mockingly before taking his seat,as he was growing fond of sassy Kim Taehyung.

"I still have too much to learn from you, and this needs you to be healthy first!"he replied taking his seat after jungkook did.

"You know what,never in my life I imagined that I'll allow an intern to be so frank and comfortable with me. I'm even sharing my personal office with you, woah!"

"Then I'm sure none of them was worth this privilege."

Jungkook chuckled and the younger smiled at his own comment.

They sure are getting close with each passing day.

The comfortable silence was interrupted by a knock and Lisa entered after getting the permission. She was holding three bags,one having pizza and mcFlurry-other one with tannie's cookies-and last one that taehyung ordered for lunch.

She placed them on younger's desk,

"This one is the parcel you ordered, it just arrived,"she said before taking her leave_too embarrassed to face the CEO,

Or,

I might say her crush ever since she saw him.

"C'mon then,let's eat first,"said jungkook walking towards the couch in his office, younger followed behind.

"So that was your plan to ruin their bond? You think jungkooksii would've trusted you like that?"bogum asked as he crossed path with Lisa in the elevator.

Lisa didn't bother to reply, already too much irritated and furious from events of the day.

"Are you a kid? How can you even think that such cheap tricks will work with them,"he continued breaking the silence once again.

"Why don't you try then,huh? Don't you dare mock me again or I'll show you what really I can do.

Mind your own business!"she retorted as a ding sound was heard and got off the elevator,heading somewhere.

Rest of the day went in a blur,all of them busy in their daily routine.

Currently, yoongi, hobi and taehyung were at jin's place_having so much to talk about after long time. Yoongi couldn't leave eunwoo even for a second since he came, while others were helping jin to prepare dinner.

"I'm home,"said the tall, handsome male as he entered the home,quite exhausted after a long day.

"ᗪᗩᗪ!!"the little angel exclaimed and ran to hug the male.

"I see you met new uncle today!"said joon as he picked up his son, smiling heartily at his cuteness.

"YᗴՏ! ᗰᗴᗯ ᗰᗴᗯ ᑌᑎᑕᒪᗴ!!"the little boy giggled at his own words.

"Namjoonah! If he'll call me like that in public then what am I supposed to do? Can't he call me just uncle?"yoongi asked looking at the duo who were busy playing in their own world now.

"Hyung, he totally takes after jinnie,you won't be able to change his mind easily."

"JOONIEE!! How dare you pick up my angel before changing those dirty clothes! Go and wash up first,"

and the male didn't need to be told twice as he rushed upstairs, smiling sheepishly at his ignorance.

It was time for dinner and everyone gathered at the dining table. As always, they couldn't stop complimenting jin's handmade food that tastes the best.

"It would have been better if jimin was also here,"taehyung said pouring himself a glass of water.

"He'll be here next week tae,dont worry," yoongi comforted the younger before diving into food again.

"ᘜOOᘜᒪᗴ IՏᑎOT ᕼᗴᖇᗴ?"

.

.

And it took few seconds for them to get what the little boy wants to tell.

"He's busy baby,will visit you next time,ok?"joon replied his son and continued now looking at the male in front.

"Hyung,don't think that much. He calls jungkook ᘜOOᘜᒪᗴ-just a nickname like yours."

The table was filled with heatful laughs and silly debates,and they savoured the meal till last bites.

Their world was always happy when they were together,

No worries of the world,no regrets of their lives...just they being themselves and enjoying the time together to its fullest.

And now,the little baby angel added loads of happiness to their world.

Taehyung was getting ready for the work, excited for his next task & to learn something new. He felt like stepping closer towards his dreams, and each day bringing new hopes in his life.

Checking himself for the last time in the mirror,he took the keys and his bag to leave for office,

Sound of notification caused him to stop and take a look at the message he just received.

It was a private number,

𝚂𝚖𝚒𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚐 𝚏𝚊𝚌𝚎𝚜 𝚠𝚒𝚝𝚑 𝚖𝚢𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛𝚒𝚘𝚞𝚜 𝚎𝚢𝚎𝚜,

𝚊 𝚑𝚒𝚍𝚍𝚎𝚗 𝚠𝚘𝚛𝚕𝚍 𝚘𝚏 𝚑𝚞𝚛𝚝 𝚊𝚗𝚍 𝚕𝚒𝚎𝚜.......

9:32am

By this time, taehyung was sure that the past few incidences in his life are trying to disclose the secrets and hidden stories of his life... and now the message itself.

He was now preparing himself to be able to take whatever life throws at him, 'cause it already had been a long and challenging journey uptil now. He didn't want to lose what he has gained over this time.

He was brought out of the trance by tannie's presence around his legs, he took a deep breath and crouched in front of his son,

"It's okay tannie, we'll wait till the time comes. We've come so far and I won't destroy what I have at this point, for the sake of my past and it's stories"he said, petting tannie gently over his back.

Yeontan had been with taehyung since jin's family kind of adopted him. And this much time was enough for the this duo to know each other,feel what the other wants to tell_even though there is no language to communicate through.

Tannie was listening to him patiently as if he understands what his dad is telling and agrees with it. The way he would look at tae,with so much love in his eyes... was something that always calms down the younger,no matter how the things are around them.

"Let's keep going as we were till now. If the facts are meant to disclose,they will one day. I won't stop now when a new chapter of my life is waiting for me ,"he continued looking at those cute eyes, that blinked several times. Accepting the advice he told himself, taehyung smiled at his son and got up_ making his way out.

Jungkook was on his way towards the office. Walking past the greeting figures around himself, he made his way through the busy corridors into the office. He entered the place,only to get surprised by the person in front.

The questioning look over his face was enough to get jieun started.

"I just dropped by to meet you, don't worry I won't take much of your time."

Jungkook walked towards the couch and made himself comfortable, jieun following behind.

"Everything alright? Is it something urgent?"he asked the girl,not wasting time.

"Hmm, I'm heading back to Italy today. Flight is in two hours,"

"Oh,have a safe trip. What are the plans anyways?"

"I don't think I'll return any soon. Can we have a coffee together?"she asked hesitantly, looking upto the male in front.

"Sure,"and jungkook dialed a number,ordering two coffees.

"I actually wanted to meet you in person,but the schedule didn't allow me,"he said,looking anywhere but the girl.

"Really? What's the matter?"

Jieun was surprised at the fact she just heard. After what happened last time in the same office,she didn't expect jungkook to look for meeting her.

"About what happened last time.... I'm really sorry. I wasn't in the right mind,"

Jieun smiled at the genuineness of Jeon CEO. There is nothing better than acknowledging your mistake and apologizing for it.... this act needs you to be mature and honest enough.

"I got that you were stuck badly in your work, running such a business successfully is not a joke_ I know that more than anyone."she said spacing out in her imagination.

"But the other thing I realized was that,you are not ready for relationship at the moment. It's another responsibility, I know that. You could've just told me jungkook,"

And now jungkook was staring at her, dumfounded. How thoughtful and sincere her words were,

"I'm really sorry for treating you like that,but I believe on my instincts a lot. When my heart and mind will tell me 'yes,this is the time and that one is the person I'm meant to be with' I'll go to that person without having a second thought."

"I understand, don't feel sorry.

Let's continue being friends, I can't lose such a precious and brilliant friend!"

Both smiled with satisfaction,now savouring the coffee in a comfortable silence.

'knock knock'

"Come in,"the CEO ordered and none other than his precious intern entered the office.

"Gud morning sir,

'morning ma'am,"he greeted the duo sitting at the couch.

"I must have disturbed you,sorry.

I'll be back-"

"No no, its okay. I was leaving anyway." Jieun said as she got up,

"Take care jungkook,I will be in touch."

"Hmm,sure."

And the girl left CEO's office, leaving both the males behind.

"So, I've come up with a plan!"jungkook said while stepping towards his desk,and standing in front of the younger instead of taking seat.

Taehyung though was listening to him, the energy he has everyday was lacking somewhere.

"What's the matter?"

"Huh?...Nothing sir. I'm listening,"taehyung replied pulling himself together.

"Now tell me honestly,"he said leaning over the desk, that was so soft to believe he is the same CEO of Jeons' who doesn't spare a glance to anyone at work_typically professional they say.

'I can't let the past ruin my present. Let's not give in to the distraction and cheer on.'

"It's really nothing,sir. I'm fine,"he reassured once again,this time with a confident smile.

"Hmm...Okay. But if you have any problem-"

"-You're there to help me out, I know" younger interrupted jungkook to complete what he always tells him.

Here we go,

Another genuine smile on jungkook's face.

It's still a rare sight for the world to see, but Kim Taehyung is often the witness to it now-a-days.

"Back to the point,we have 8 days left for the conference. It's the first important step in each project_you might know this after watching the video clips yesterday, right?"

"Yes sir,just watching them makes me nervous. Would I be able to do that? In front of media and cameras and all,"he asked taking a deep breath in.

"You're learning under my guidance, don't forget that. Everything feels difficult until you do it yourself,"

Taehyung nodded with a proud smile, that almost dropped the CEO's patience to taste the excitement on his plump lips.

"So, what's the schedule for next week?"younger asked with excitement, unaware of what state jungkook is recovering from.

"Umm,look here,"and jungkook took a marker from the drawer and started explaining the tasks for his intern on a board,placed beside the bookshelf of office.

Soon,the schedule for next week was perfectly written over the board. It was carefully prepared not wasting a single day and planned to get the best outcome from it.

And the younger started working on it right away,while CEO got busy with his own work.

The day went as taehyung continued with the task in excitement and passion,while jungkook_ well.... he was busy working but not to forget,checking upon the progress of his intern,

which seems to be just an excuse though!
