"ENOUGH",

"How dare you?", taehyung walked forward and stood in front of a shocked jongin, bloodshot furious eyes staring directly at the older's soul.

Jungkook himself couldn't believe what he was seeing. Taehyung never..never lost his calm like that.

"What the fuck do you think of yourself? Just because I tolerate all of your shit doesn't mean you will humiliate, MY HUSBAND", he yelled out on the older's face.

"Who gave you the right to utter bullshit about my jungkook's character... Should I remind you of all those nights you use to sneak out without anyone's knowledge..", taehyung muttered dangerously, his voice low and eyes throwing daggers.

"Shut your fucking mouth if you don't want another punch", jongin muttered, voice equally dark.

"Jongin, taehyung.. Back off", hyunbin tried to push them away as he didn't want them to get involved in physical fight. Mingyu held jongin back. Honestly, he wouldn't complain if taehyung beat the shit out of jongin. No one has the right to dishonor someone like this.

Taehyung jerked himself out of his father's hold, almost throwing the older and stood on his ground.

"I dare you even take my jungkook's pure name with your filthy mouth, I will show you what a punch feels like", he threatened darkly.

"You.. You will hit me..try then", jongin chuckled mockingly.

Taehyung chuckled as if a demon has possessed him.

"I will not only hit you, I will rip you apart, if you dare saying a single fifth about my husband", taehyung's voice was few octaves low, giving goosebumps to everyone's spine.

"Even if you try throughout your life and all the life after this, you still can never match the purity of my jungkook..

Before pointing at anyone first look at yourself in the mirror", he added furiously.

"Enough of you all's bullshit about my husband.. No one.. No one is allowed to say a single word against him.. YOU HEAR ME", taehyung yelled again which startled everyone again.

Jungkook just stared at taehyung with love filled glossy eyes. He couldn't believe this was happening. He was seeing this side of taehyung for the first time, as much as he was surprised, he was proud and overwhelmed the most.

"Your coward mouth is talking too much, I see..", jongin mocked trying to get free from mingyu's hold.

"All these years I kept my mouth shut and obeyed everything I was taught. I fucking know why you always try to suppress me.. You just want to show everyone that you are the superior here.. You always filled mom and dad's ear, how vulnerable and innocent I am to handle responsibility of the company..isn't it", taehyung exclaimed, surprising everyone even jongin.

"What? Surprised, I found out", taehyung repeated jongin's words mockingly who gritted his teeth.

"All these years.. You just took advantage of my vulnerability and kindness.. You were bitter and hated the fact that I was born as a boy and not a girl.. You wanted to be the only son on the Kims so that you receive more properties and take over the company, alone... You are just trying to snatch all the shares from mom and dad and kick me out.. Even your greedy wife supported you in this.. Isn't it?", taehyung added further. The older ones couldn't believe their ears.

Jongin was tongue tied and somin gulped.

"You are lying-", taehyung cut the older off in the most rudest way possible.

"And Taeri noona.. I don't even have any words for you.. You all call my husband selfish.. Then what did she do?.. Being a brother I was always proud of you.. But then ever since jungkook came, you never once took his side even after knowing he never was wrong", he gritted out and taeri turned her gaze not being able to match his eyes because of the raw emotions.

"Or were you involved in the plan too? How much percentage did he promise you, huh?", taehyung asked and her eyes widen.

"Is it true?", mingyu asked in disbelief, her avoiding eyes gave him the answer. He didn't even know what to feel and say anymore.

"I can't believe this", mingyu said in utter bewilderment.

"Taehyung what are you even saying.. Don't forget he is your brother", hyunbin stated though he himself was almost convinced because jongin did always come to him saying how taehyung always mess up and was too lazy. How he can never handle responsibilities because of his emotional self. How he always prioritize jungkook over work and lag behind.

"Well if this is what a brother supposed to be.. Then I don't want a brother", taehyung for the first time in his life yelled at hyunbin who was startled.

"You are the reason behind my vulnerability, dad.. You never listened to me.. You never talked to me like a father should do.. All you did was ordering me around..and believing what ever was told to you", taehyung exclaimed as his eyes got teary.

"Tae.. It's nothing like that.. People are trying to manipulate you.. Don't be a fool", yejin claimed, yet again accusing jungkook.

"Oh mom.. Please.. Just stop with you melodramatic self", the sudden remark had yejin to flinch. Her taehyung never spoke to her like that.

"I am not a child that people can manipulate me.... Rather look out for yourselves..are you sure no one manipulated you two", he added bitterly.

"And what you even did for me, mom.. Have you guys ever thought about my happiness..my desire.. What I want? What I feel? No.. Because you guys were always too occupied with your elder son...

Have guys ever came to me when I cried.. When I needed my parents warmth.. When I needed your protection..? No..

Because your so called son told you I am an useless shit and to not pamper me unnecessarily to make be strong...like seriously..

All my life I lived in misery and agony.. No one.. No one understood me..

Untill jungkook came into my life", his voice suddenly became soft as he stared at jungkook's glossy eyes with his own.

"He understood me.. Asked me what I want.. what I feel.. never ordered me..never throw his judgement and decision at me... Never judged me for being soft.. Was always there to wipe my tears.. Was always the reason of my smile...", taehyung turned towards his now teary parents.

"He provided me the warmth I craved for.. He gave me the protection I needed.. He gave me the love I was desperate for", taehyung said in shaky voice as his a tear rolled down his cheeks.

Jungkook covered his mouth with his palm to stop the sob threatening to slip out. He can only predict how much pain taehyung was feeling. He knew taehyung was hurting but taehyung never shared everything in detail with him. Taehyung always avoided his question when he asked.. Why.. This was the answer of that-- Why..

"Taehyung", hyunbin whispered.

"Yes dad.. That's my name.. That you never called lovingly or proudly..no matter how much hardest I tried..I am always the useless one for you", he mumbled shakily.

"Tae, we love you.. You are misunderstanding us", yejin said desperately and tried to touch his cheeks but taehyung backed away, clenching her heart.

"You don't, mom.. You never did", he whispered.

What can be more painful for a parent than their own blood claiming to not being loved, in the most gut wrenching way possible. Everyone could say by the raw emotions in taehyung's features, how much miserable he was.

Taehyung inhaled deeply before wiping his tears harshly and his face taking a stoic expression.

"You always wanted a strong son, right.. I will show you what having a strong son feels like...

And you", taehyung turned towards Jongin, who finally looked up at him.

"I am not giving up on my rights.. I am the equal owner of the company.. If you try to play too smart.. Then my brother see you at the court", taehyung gritted out in a deep dark voice.

Taehyung walked towards jungkook and wiped his tears lovingly.. His face was blank but jungkook could clearly see the affection for him, in those beautiful almond eyes.

"I am sorry, for the words my so called brother used.. Forgive me please", taehyung mumbled and jungkook shook his head frantically, as he chuckled through his tears.

"Wasn't your fault at all", he smiled, assuring taehyung.

Taehyung intertwines his hand with jungkook's and turned towards his family,

"Jungkook will work as a model and that's my final decision.. No one.. I repeat.. No one can talk to him any differently, or you will see the worst of me", his aura was so dark and dominating that even jungkook felt like submitting to him.

"And as for our child.. You don't deserve to know what happened.. And think what ever the fuck you want.. I don't care", taehyung added further.

"Also.. Dad.. I demand to be the co-ceo.. You have a week to arrange everything...

If you or anyone refuse.. Do not forget my husband is a Jeon..and their power isn't unknown to the world...I will be forced to take legal actions..", taehyung said authoritatively and jungkook smirked enjoying a little too much.

"And it's a warning.. Threat is yet to come", taehyung lastly added and stormed towards his room, dragging jungkook along with him, who was staring at him with pride mixed with love filled eyes. It was so overwhelming for jungkook.

"Dad.. How can you keep quite-",

"Get out of my sight", hyunbin muttered.

"What?", jongin asked in disbelief.

Hyunbin himself left the place, followed by a silently crying yejin, heart heavy with guilt and remorse.

Taehyung rushed inside the room and left jungkook's arm before sitting on the bed, staring at the wall opposite to him, blankly.

Jungkook closed the door and sighed before walking towards taehyung and standing in front of him, a peaceful silence surrounding them but their mind was anything but peaceful. He can clearly see taehyung was at the verge of breaking down, which clenched his heart even more.

They say when the man who was always kind, soft and endure everything silently, burst, then the sight would be really ugly to witness.. Their inner feelings erupt like a sleeping volcano and burn everything into ashes that comes to their way.

And jungkook knows, taehyung reached that level, after all these years of pent of frustration. He unlocked a new taehyung in himself, but jungkook was sure his soft cuddly baby was still there hidden inside that erupting volcano.

Jungkook slowly walked closer and stood in between taehyung's legs before cupping his cheeks ever so tenderly and that's all it took for taehyung to break down, as he hugged jungkook's waist dearly, sobbing his heart out.

"Shh! I am here", jungkook whispered peppering soft kisses on the older's head, cradling him to his chest. His own silent tears were rolling down down his cheeks.

"Let it out my baby",

He didn't stop taehyung from crying, because he knew taehyung needed that. So he stood there and provided his warmth and comfort as much as he could.
