Taehyung hung up his phone the moment he heard knocking at his door. After trying to call Sungjae for the nth time that afternoon, he gave up. Clearly Sungjae didn't plan on talking to Taehyung anytime soon so whatever. "Coming!" Taehyung called out just before he opened the door and as he did, he looked confused at the girl standing in front of him but after a few seconds, Taehyung recognized who was standing in front of his door. "... Hey." Jia gulped but she forced a smile on her lips. "Long time no see." She breathed in and kept her eyes on Taehyung.
"... Jia." Taehyung whispered out, kind of in a daze before he shook his head and opened the door widely for Jia to come in and she did. "W-What are you doing here?" Taehyung asked since he was confused about why Jia just suddenly showed up at his door. "Jungkook told me you were here- and I Uhm." Jia turned to face Taehyung. "I wanted to apologize. Three years ago I... What I did was unforgivable, I know. I shouldn't have outed you like that and I'm not gonna bring up an excuse because no matter how mad I was... I shouldn't have done that to you."
Jia stopped to gather her words. "Giving your mom those pictures was childish of me and so fucking stupid. I just.. I let the anger consume me. I blamed you for Jungkook leaving which was so so wrong! I get that now and I'm so sorry Taehyung. If I could go back to that day I would have did things differently but I can't so.. I'm so sorry for taking that from you. For betraying your trust. I'm— so sorry." Jia said while looking at Taehyung. Playing with her fingers as she did so out of being nervous.
Taehyung stood by the door processing what Jia said. Jungkook brought her here? And she was apologizing for something that happened three years ago. Well- fair because he did get kicked out after that but he had a decision to stay too so it wasn't her fault entirely. She did out Taehyung to his family but... honestly, it was going to come out sooner or later. "Don't be." Taehyung finally spoke up. "If you didn't out me... I probably would have stayed in that miserable household convincing them that I'm as straight as they wished me to be."
Now Taehyung got that he should have been livid about this and he was, three years ago. Three years ago he couldn't get over that Jia outed him like that let alone shut him out without letting him explain but that was three years ago. Things happened and Taehyung grew from that and he was sure Jia grew from it too, obviously since she was apologizing to Taehyung. The important thing was that Jia was apologizing for her actions.

Jia shook her head. "But I shouldn't have taken that from you. You should have told them when you were ready. Yet because I was so mad about the situation, I didn't think about you and how it would affect you." Jia started to talk fast since she wanted to get her point across to Taehyung. "You left and I blame myself. Because you were my best friend Taehyung. I betrayed you and I..." She stopped talking since her voice started to break up. Clearing her throat, Jia shrugged. "I'm just... so sorry for what I did and caused." She held her own hands tightly while bowing in front of Taehyung.
Totally taken back, Taehyung watched Jia for a moment until he walked over to her and brought her into a tight and comforting hug. "As I said, don't be sorry," Taehyung told Jia and just like that, Jia started to cry although she was trying to stop herself. "I've missed you so much Taehyung." Jia grabbed tightly at Taehyung's shirt as she hugged him. Taehyung couldn't help but tear up while hugging Jia. She did wrong, Taehyung's knows that but he wasn't going to hold it over her head because what he said was true. If Jia didn't out him then he would probably still be pleasing his parents. Probably trying to marry a woman if anything.
Or maybe he would have found the confidence to come out himself but Taehyung didn't think that would have happened in his situation. "I've missed you too Jia. So so much." Taehyung hugged Jia tighter as they stayed like that. Hugging each other for the longest time because well, they both needed the hug. Three years... three long damn years. When they finally pulled away, Taehyung couldn't help but laugh at how Jia just kept crying. "I'm sorry I just can't stop." She groaned while throwing her head back. Hoping the tears would somehow stop.
Wiping her tears with his thumb, Taehyung got Jia to sit down on the bed. "Stop crying or I'll cry too." Taehyung warned Jia who sucked it up but the one tear remaining decided to slip. That resulted in Jia wiping it away quickly with a dull facial expression. That made Taehyung laugh only because of how Jia reacted all so suddenly. "So... Ilsan." Jia started off. Breathing in, Taehyung nodded but then became confused on how Jia knew that. "Jungkook- he told me." Jia scratched her neck as Taehyung hummed, of course Jungkook told her.
"What else did he tell you?" Taehyung asked and Jia shook her head. "That's all. That you've been in Ilsan since you left here." She got comfortable on the bed by putting a pillow on her lap. Taehyung was so different now. The way he spoke, the way he dressed... the way he looked. Taehyung looked like himself? but not the Taehyung Jia once knew. This Taehyung was happy, or so it looked like he was happy and that made Jia happy. "Well... I didn't actually think it through where I should have went. All I remember is getting on the first bus out of here and it happend to land me in Ilsan." Taehyung sighed.

Taehyung went on and on about what happened after he left Seoul. How he met up with Sungjae on the bus and how Sungjae let Taehyung bunk with him for a bit. Failed to mention their relationship but Taehyung was building up to that. All the hardships were told to Jia and honestly just talking to Jia made Taehyung spill everything and anything. Even the feelings he felt in the moment of what he was telling Jia. "Then... the second year came around and I... got with Sungjae." Taehyung bit his lip as Jia's eyes widened. "So... you're with.. Sungjae now?"
Taehyung cleared his throat and nodded. "Crazy how life works huh?" Taehyung smiled a bit as Jia then gulped at those words and nodded. "Yeah... life is crazy." She agreed with Taehyung. Breathing in, Jia took out her phone and went onto her pictures. Tapping on one, Jia turned her phone screen to Taehyung. "This is Jungwon." Jia watched Taehyung's facial expression change to a confused one. ".. My son." Jia came out with it and that's when Taehyung's eyes widened even more as he looked at Jia. "S-Son?!" He choked out.
Nodding, Jia sat right next to Taehyung and started swiping on her photos. "This was when he was just two days old. Cute right? He loved sucking on his thumb." Jia chuckled as Taehyung looked at the photos. "Oh and this was his first birthday." Jia showed Taehyung yet another picture and more pictures turned into videos and... Taehyung was in utter disbelief of what Jia was showing and telling him. Jia has a son... she birthed a whole human being when Taehyung was gone. "He's..." Taehyung grabbed the phone and smiled. "He's beautiful Jia."
Jia smiled at Taehyung and then looked at the phone. "He is, isn't he?" Jia bit her lip as she then breathed in and out. "Wanna guess who the father is?" Jia asked Taehyung by also nudging him. Taehyung totally forgot Jia couldn't make this baby on her own and so he got to thinking. Looking at the face of Jungwon, Taehyung became suspicious because as much as he looked like Jia- that nose looked so much like... "No." Taehyung stood up and pointed at Jia who had a sheepish smile. "No! Not... Tell me it's not Akio."
Jia sucked in a breath and nodded. "I wish I could say it wasn't." Jia confirmed with Taehyung who looked away and groaned. "Not him! Anyone but him!" Taehyung dragged out a sigh. Laughing, Jia stood up. "You're just like Jungkook! I didn't have a choice, I didn't come in me." Jia scoffed which made Taehyung plug his ears with his fingers. "Ew." He stuck out his tongue and as they did that... it felt like back then. When they were in Jia's room talking for hours on hours. Though this moment was just... even more special to them now.
"How can he deny that's his son? Look at him! I feel sorry for Jungwon really." Taehyung kept swiping through the photos but stopped when Jia nudged him harshly. "That's my son Taehyung!" She scoffed as she tried to hide her smile. "Okay and? Your son has a shitty dad. I'll beat him up again if I have to." Taehyung scoffed but laughed it off with Jia. "Oh yeah? And will Jungkook have to come save you again?" She pouted only to tease as Taehyung clicked his tongue. "The only thing Jungkook will do is pull me off after I deck Akio's shit."
In a fit of laughter, it soon died down as Jia looked at her phone. Biting her lip, she looked at Taehyung before smiling and hurrying to answer the door although no one had knocked yet. When she opened it though, there stood Jungkook and her boy. "Taehyung, come." Jia pulled Jungkook in just as Taehyung stood up from the bed. Jungkook put Jungwon on the floor and the boy took off to see the rest of the room in excitement. "Mommy look!" The boy pointed outside the window, running over and looking out.
Taehyung looked at Jungwon with so much love. That little boy... Jia created that little boy. Kneeing onto the floor, Taehyung smiled as the boy looked at him curiously. "Hi Jungwon." Taehyung said cutely and the boy smiled as he waved. "Look at your shirt! All the nice trucks, I'm jealous!" Taehyung pointed at Jungwon's shirt that was blue and had trucks on it as a design. Looking at his shirt, Jungwon giggled and began pointing at the trucks. "This ones red." Jungwon told Taehyung who nodded. Totally in love with the little boy in front of him.
