"Hey.. Everything will be alright, okay", jimin squeezed jungkook's hands, trying to provide some comfort.

"I don't know if it really will", jungkook whispered as he stared out of the window, admiring the endless sky.

"Why don't you sleep for some time.. I will wake you up once we land", jimin suggested with a smile.

"Is taehyungie coming to receive me?", he asked lowly still staring at the clouds.

"I didn't tell him yet.. You should call him once we reach home, okay", jimin sighed sadly seeing the other like that.

Ever since the doctor said those words, jungkook was feeling completely numb. His heart was aching and his mind was clouded with endless thoughts.

He knows taehyung loved kids, he always told jungkook how he wants so many little ones running around them, he also wanted to adopt at least two dogs, too. He still remembers taehyung's exact words, from the very night they gave each other their soul, they were tangled up in the warm bed, naked under fluffy duvet, when taehyung told him about his little dream.

"One day we will live in a small cosy home with um at least four kids, two boys and two girls.. And we would adopt two adorable dogs. We would make them feel like our prince and princess. We would wear matching clothes and go on family picnics to the beach and play all day..",

How would he inform taehyung about the news and then snatch away the happiness even before they could live through it?

Taehyung would be devastated and would loose himself in the pool of sadness, as if he himself won't be. But that's how jungkook has always been, thinking about taehyung's happiness and well being before his.

Although, they didn't plan for kids at the moment neither talked about having them anytime soon. It was unexpected. Jungkook was just starting his career still he would never give up on his baby and would have started his career again after the delivery but as soon as the happiness bloomed in his motherly heart, it was crushed right away.

He wanted to scream and cry to all the deities out there and ask them why did they even give them the taste of this happiness just to snatch it away. If it wasn't in their fate then, why? He couldn't even live that moment properly, couldn't even share that overwhelming happiness with his taehyungie.

And then he heard his inner voice,

'You have a choice',

'If I choose the other option, taehyungie will loose himself',

'But his dream to have kids would be fulfilled',

'He would never agree, if he knew the consequences',

'Then don't tell him',

'He would hate me later',

His inner conscience was battling among each other and he already feel exhausted with everything going on.

"Kookie", jimin called softly yet jungkook flinched, coming back from his dark thougts.

"Hey relax", jimin gave him some water as jungkook took few small sips.

"Come on we are here", jimin stood up when jungkook nodded.

They reached home and jungkook straight away went to his room without even looking at anyone.

"What happened to him?", shinhye would have scoffed if her mother's heart didn't recognize the pain on her son's face, she frowned and seeing jimin's silent yet devastated look, churned something in her heart.

"Minie, what's wrong?", yoongi asked who was also present and minho was just starring at the way jungkook left with a frown of worry.

Jungkook always behaved ignorant but greeted them with a simple "Hi" at least, he looked different as if he was suffering within himself, also the pale face and dark eye bags didn't go unnoticed.

And as soon as jimin explained everything, shinhye gasped as tears were rolling down her cheeks. Jimin hugged yoongi who looked frozen on his spot. And minho fell on the couch as he stared at void, not knowing what to react.

Jungkook was lying on the bed, staring up at the ceiling without blinking his eyes. Lost in his own pool of thoughts. His hand was caressing his flat lower abdomen, subconsciously. The whole night he barely slept.

He informed taehyung about his return intentionally late so that he doesn't run up to him immediately, yesterday. He wanted some time for himself and think about everything thoroughly.

He didn't go out of his room since the time he came back and everyone gave him his much needed space, just minho came with dinner and breakfast this morning. He heart was breaking seeing his son so lost but he didn't start any conversation just sat beside him while jungkook ate a little.

Jungkook had no idea how he would tell the news to taehyung. He was in great dilemma about what to do. He never hid anything from the older and even thinking about doing so was already making him feel guilty.

His phone rang, breaking his chain of thoughts. Sighing softly he grabbed his cell, seeing the ID he sat up on the edge of bed, abruptly.

"Hyung", he called with a hint of desperation in his voice.

"Kookie.. Calm down okay.. And listen to me carefully", jin spoke from the other side of the call.

"How can I calm down?", he exclaimed lowly, his eyes were brimming with un-shade tears. He heard jin sighing deeply.

"Kook.. I saw all your reports and also consulted with one of my colleague..

The fetus' position is really complicated according to the scan.. And if you decide to keep the baby, then we can save them through c-section but there is maximum 20% chance of your own survival. It's too risky, jungkook. Also if you somehow have miscarriage in this condition then you might never be able to conceive again.. So it's better to take a step before something like that happens.

And we both suggest you to go for abortion right this instant, jungkook", jin said carefully trying to act like a doctor but how could he, it was about his family member after all.

"How can I kill my own baby?", jungkook whispered.

"What... Jungkook.. Are you out of your mind?..Don't be stupid", jin barked from the other side.

"Taehyungie would be devastated.. He wanted kids so bad", jungkook mumbled as tears were rolling down his red cheeks.

"Jungkook.. Think about taehyung... If you hide such a big thing from him and keep the baby, he won't be able to live, later. He would die every second without you.. You both are young and it's not like you can't have another baby... But if you do this foolishness now then everything will be ruined. Please jungkook think about taehyung at least", jin literally begged him.

If he keeps the baby it would be a suicide. Yeah! We can't know what future holds for us, but if you have a choice now then that means something.

"I am thinking about him", jungkook said stubbornly.. He just couldn't bring himself to agree to kill his own baby and snatch away taehyung's happiness, for once he didn't want to be selfish.

"Kim Jungkook, snap out of your dark thoughts.. You are stronger than this... You will not keep the baby you hear me... Taehyung will die if he knows you did it to fulfill his wish.. And how can you leave that innocent soul alone in this world, huh? Remember jungkook, taehyung has no one who would stand beside him but only you...don't do this jungkook.. Please", jin was breathless after yelling so much and the anxiety of the thing jungkook was trying to do was killing him. He so wanted to run back to korea and slap some sense in jungkook.

Jungkook remained silent for few minutes and jin's words were echoing inside his mind like mantra. Indeed his baby has no one other than him. Taehyung's family would continue to crush him in his absence and taehyung won't be able to do anything. Also if he leaves then taehyung would have to take care of their sign of love alone and knowing yejin, she would force taehyung to remarry.. And he can never tolerate that.

Jungkook wiped his tears harshly with a determination in his eyes,

"You are right.. I should go for a-abortion", jungkook stated.

Jungkook snapped his head towards the thud sound and his breath caught in his throat when he saw taehyung standing there with a look of betrayal and eyes filled with tears. A huge bouquet of black roses laying on the ground along with a box which seems like jungkook's favourite desert.

Jungkook cut the call and stood up. He didn't want taehyung to know about the news like this. And by the way taehyung was staring at him, he could guess taehyung misunderstood the situation.

"A-abortion?", taehyung mumbled as a drop of tear rolled down his cheeks.

"Y-you are p-pregnant?", taehyung asked in devastation.

"Taehyungie.. No.. you are misunderstanding.. Let me explain please", jungkook tried to explain and took few steps towards him.

"No.. You don't need to explain anything, koo.... It's.. It's your body and you have all right to d-decide... I-i understand you just started your career... But d-don't you think I should at least be i-informed too?", taehyung asked softly as tears were continuously flowing from his eyes, the look of betrayal was killing jungkook from inside, his head was throbbing in pain.

"I-it's not what you think.. D-doctor said-",

"I told you not to explain yourself, koo.. I just...", taehyung shut his eyes and stormed out of the room.

"No.. No.. Taehyungie wait..please", jungkook ran after him, doctor's strict instructions about not taking any kind of stress and complete bed rest untill the day of abortion left jungkook's mind as he ran as fast as he could, to stop taehyung, yelling his heart out but the older didn't, he just needed some space to clear his mind.

Everyone rushed to the stairs to see why jungkook was yelling but before they could go up they saw taehyung rushing down and jungkook running behind.

"Ahh", jungkook suddenly yelped and he fell on the floor when a sharp pain shoot through his stomach.

"Jungkook", shinhye yelled horrifically as they ran upstairs.

Taehyung halted in his steps and turned back to see jungkook on the floor withering in pain while clutching his stomach.

"Koo", he ran back towards him and fell on his knees before taking his love in his arms. The family was beside them.

"What happened, koo?", taehyung was going crazy as he tried to wake now an unconscious jungkook.

"We have to take him to the hospital", yoongi exclaimed and taehyung was fast to carry him in his arms and rushed downstairs to the car.

Yoongi got on the drivers seat and taehyung had jungkook in the back as they drove as fast as they could. Behind them were jimin, minho and shinhye.

Jimin had already informed his own doctor about jungkook's condition this morning and she suggested the same thing, now told her to be prepared as they were on the way.

Throughout the way taehyung was crying his eyes out mumbling numerous apologies and begging jungkook to be safe and wake up. Yoongi didn't know whether to calm his own heart or console taehyung, he just concentrated in reaching the hospital as fast as possible.

Jungkook was taken to the emergency as soon as they reached. Taehyung slid his body on the wall before sitting on the floor, he grabbed his hair blaming himself for jungkook's condition. Only if he didn't rushed then jungkook wouldn't have followed him.

He felt a pair of arms around him and looked up to see shinhye, he hugged her for dear life and sobbed loudly.

"My koo will be okay right, eomma", he begged.

"Yes baby.. He will be", she whispered while crying. Everyone's heart was breaking seeing him like that.

Minho was literally frozen as tears were rolling down his cheeks. He didn't speak anything just prayed for his baby star's well being.

Yoongi had jimin in his arms who was crying, he himself was trying hard to be strong for the rest of the family.

After fifteens minutes or so, the doctor came out of the emergency room.

"Kim Jungkook's family", she called.

Taehyung snapped his head and rushed towards her, so did others.

"H-how is my husband?", he asked desperately.

She had a sympathetic look seeing everyone's condition and specially taehyung. She sighed heavily before speaking,

"You already know his condition, and too much stress made it worst. We need to perform the abortion, right now, he is already bleeding and we need to work faster so that future crisis can be saved as well and we want your consent for that", she asked and handed a clip board where he had to sign.

"C-condition?", taehyung asked in bewilderment.

"Jungkook didn't tell you?", yoongi asked and taehyung shook his head hesitantly, gulping the lump in his throat.

"We will explain.. But first sign the papers", jimin ushered him to be quick.

"Y-yeah..", taehyung's hands were trembling he was literally signing on his own blood's death sentence.

He some how managed to sign the papers and handed it back.

"What condition?", taehyung aksed jimin immediately after the doctor left.

"The position of the baby was complicated and if he doesn't go for abortion then it would have k-killed kookie during delivery", jimin tried to explain but his throat was clogging.

Taehyung froze, his eyes didn't even blink just stared at jimin in utter shock. This was the reason jungkook agreed for abortion. He was trying to explain but he didn't listen. Jungkook was now in hospital for his reckless act. He was only blaming himself. Now he would never forgive himself if something happens to his koo.
