This story holds a special place in my heart, as many of the incidents (though not all) are inspired by real-life experiences. Since the role of the protagonist (Jeongguk) is extremely close to my heart, I understand that these incidents may seem mundane or undramatic to others. However, only those who have endured such humiliation can truly comprehend the depth of the pain. No one should ever have to go through what Jeongguk is experiencing in this story.
Taehyung walks through the front door, his eyes scanning the room for Jeongguk. He has been returning home earlier every day, hoping to catch a glimpse of Jeongguk studying diligently. But every day, he is met with the same disheartening sight.
Jeongguk's teacher, Miss Bae, is screaming at him again. Her face red, her voice shrill, she towers over Jeongguk's slumped figure. Taehyung's heart sinks as he watches, his anger simmering just below the surface.
But as soon as she sees Taehyung, she forces a bright smile onto her face.
Bae Joo Hyun
Ah, Taehyungssi! Welcome home! We were just... uh... discussing Jeongguk's studies.
Taehyung's eyes narrow. He knows exactly what he is seeing. And he has seen it before. Too many times.
He glances over at Jeongguk, who quickly wipes away tears, trying to hide the evidence of his distress. Taehyung's heart goes out to him. But before he can intervene, his omega father, Hyeon Woo, speaks up.
Hyeon Woo
Yes, Taehyungie, your omega is struggling. He's not cut out for this level of study. Perhaps he should just accept his limitations.
Taehyung feels his anger boil over. How can his father be so cruel? Doesn't he see the potential in Jeongguk? Doesn't he care that his harsh words are crushing Jeongguk's spirit?
Kim Taehyung
Eomeoni, that's enough
Taehyung says, his voice firm but controlled. But Hyeon Woo just chuckles.
Hyeon Woo
Oh, Taehyungie. You're so soft on him. That's not how you'll get him to succeed.
Taehyung bites back a retort, his eyes flashing with anger.
Taehyung walks into the living room, and his eyes immediately land on Teacher Bae, who is chatting with his omega father, Hyeon Woo. It's a familiar sight, one that Taehyung has witnessed countless times over the past few weeks. But what catches his attention is the gradual change in Teacher Bae's attire. Her clothes seem to be getting more revealing with each passing day.
Taehyung's eyes narrow as he watches her laugh and touch his father's arm. He doesn't like her overly friendly nature, especially when it comes to his family members. And it's not just his father who has fallen under her charm - his omega brother, Taekyu, seems smitten with her too.
But what really grates on Taehyung's nerves is the way Teacher Bae reserves her warm smiles and gentle touches for everyone except Jeongguk. She's always cold and distant with him, and Taehyung can't understand why. Doesn't she see how hard Jeongguk is trying? Doesn't she care that her harsh words are crushing his spirit?
Taehyung's anger simmers just below the surface as he watches Teacher Bae sweet talk shameless behavior with his father and brother. He knows he has to keep a close eye on her.
Taehyung's eyes widen as he watches his omega brother, Taekyu, gaze adoringly at Teacher Bae. He realizes that Taekyu is infatuated with her fashion sense, which is something Jeongguk lacks. Taekyu has always been vain, and Teacher Bae's stylish clothes and makeup seem to have captured his attention.
Taehyung's heart sinks as he thinks about Jeongguk. His mate is afraid of Taehyung's family members, and Teacher Bae's presence only makes things worse. But what really hurts Taehyung is that his omega father, Hyeon Woo, seems to prefer Teacher Bae over Jeongguk. He thinks she is better suited for Taehyung, with her rich family background and polished demeanor.
Jeongguk, on the other hand, is a poor orphan, and Taehyung's father sees him as unworthy. Taehyung's anger simmers as he watches Teacher Bae talks sweetly with his father, knowing that she is playing on his prejudices.
Taehyung trudges through the front door, exhausted from another long day. But as he enters the living room, he's immediately pulled into the familiar routine. His omega father, Hyeon Woo, gestures for him to sit beside him, Taekyu, and Teacher Bae.
Jeongguk, on the other hand, is nowhere to be seen. Taehyung knows he's confined to his room, forbidden from entering the living room or even the corridor. It's as if he's a prisoner in his own home.
As Taehyung sits down, Teacher Bae flashes him a bright smile, but her eyes seem to hold a sinister glint. She's always like this, charming and friendly to everyone except Jeongguk.
Taehyung's heart aches as he thinks about his mate, alone and afraid in his room. He knows Teacher Bae doesn't even bother to teach Jeongguk properly, instead yelling at him until his hands shake and sweat.
Hyeon Woo
Taehyung, isn't Teacher Bae just wonderful?
His father asks, beaming with pride.
Taehyung forces a smile, trying to play along. But his mind is with Jeongguk, wondering how he can escape this toxic situation and protect his mate from those who seek to harm him.
Jeongguk slowly opens the door to the drawing room, his heart racing with a mix of fear and determination. He hasn't been allowed in here for weeks, but something inside him has snapped. He needs to face them, to show them he won't be hidden away forever.
As he enters, his eyes scan the room, taking in the familiar faces. Hyeon Woo, Taekyu, and Teacher Bae are all chatting and laughing, but Jeongguk's gaze is drawn to one person - Taehyung.
His heart skips a beat as he sees Taehyung sitting with them, smiling and talking like they're old friends. Jeongguk feels a pang of hurt and betrayal. Why is Taehyung spending time with them, when he knows how much they hurt Jeongguk?
Jeongguk's eyes well up with tears as he clenches his white pyjama pants tightly, trying to hold himself together. A small pink pout forms on his lips, and his nose becomes red as he struggles to contain his emotions.
Taehyung looks up, catching Jeongguk's eye, and for a moment, they just stare at each other. Jeongguk's heart is breaking, but he can't look away. He feels like he's losing Taehyung, like he's being replaced by Teacher Bae and her charms.
The room falls silent, with all eyes on Jeongguk. He knows he shouldn't be here, but he can't help himself. He needs Taehyung to know he's hurting, to know he's not invisible.
Jeongguk's eyes linger on the scene before him, his mind racing with thoughts.
Jeongguk
He used to come home late, but nowadays, he comes earlier than usual. This might be the only reason... and that is Teacher Bae.
He feels a pang in his heart as he looks at Teacher Bae, so perfect and poised beside Taehyung. Jeongguk can't help but feel small and insignificant in comparison.
With one last glance, Jeongguk turns and sprints towards his room, tears streaming down his face. His vision blurs as he runs, his heart heavy with emotion.
He throws himself onto the bed, clenching the bedsheet in his fists as he starts to cry. He doesn't understand why his heart hurts so much; he's just a baby in this big, cruel world. He doesn't even know what jealousy is - that's how pure and innocent he is.
As he cries, Jeongguk's body shakes with sobs. He feels lost and alone, like no one understands him. He just wants Taehyung to love him, to choose him over Teacher Bae's charms. But deep down, he fears he's not enough, that he'll never be enough.
Taehyung tries to follow Jeongguk, but his omega father, Hyeon Woo, holds his hand firmly.
Hyeon Woo
Leave him be. You will go to your room anyway. Your omega is there, he isn't running away.
Taehyung looks in the direction where Jeongguk was standing, his heart aching with concern. He remembers the day Jeongguk came to their home, full of hope and dreams. The boy had no one else to turn to, no family to support him. He had pinned all his hopes on Taehyung, wanting to build a life together, to bear his children and create a home.
Taehyung's eyes sting as he thinks about Jeongguk's pain and suffering. If he doesn't understand him, who else will? Jeongguk has no one else to turn to, no one else to comfort him.
With a surge of determination, Taehyung tries to shake off his father's grip.
Kim Taehyung
Let me go, Eomeoni. I need to talk to him.
But Hyeon Woo's grip only tightens.
Hyeon Woo
No, Taehyung. You'll only make things worse. Leave him alone.
Taehyung's heart rebels against his father's words, but he knows he can't force his way past him. For now, he's trapped, unable to comfort the one person who needs him most.
Taehyung's alpha father, Duho, walks through the front door, his eyes scanning the room. He notices Teacher Bae laughing and chatting with Hyeon Woo, Taekyu, and even Taehyung. His brow furrows in concern - Taehyung is not one to indulge in idle chatter with omegas. He's always avoided interactions with them.
Duho approaches Minsoo, his expression stern.
Kim Duho
Where is Jeonggukie?
Minsoo hesitates before answering
Yoon Min Soo
Young Master Jeongguk saw them laughing and having fun a few hours ago, then he left for his room. He was crying.
Kim Duho
Does Teacher Bae come every day? Instead of teaching Jeongguk, she indulges in gossip with Hyeonie and Taekyu-ah?
Duho takes a deep breath, his anger simmering. He can't let people ruin Jeongguk's life like this. He strides towards Taehyung's bedroom, determined to put an end to this toxic situation.
As he approaches the room, he can hear muffled sobs. His heart clenches - Jeongguk is hurting, and it's time someone stood up for him. Duho pushes open the door, ready to face whatever is happening inside.
Jeongguk immediately sits up on his bed and wipes his tears ferociously as he sees his father-in-law, Duho, standing in the doorway. Duho gestures for him to relax and asks
Kim Duho
Did my idiot son hurt you?
Jeongguk shakes his head, trying to hold back fresh tears.
Duho's expression softens.
Kim Duho
Who hurt you, kid?
Duho touches Jeongguk's head, his eyes filled with compassion. He's almost the same age as his youngest son, Taehyung Jr. Jeongguk closes his eyes and starts crying again, his body shaking with sobs.
Jeongguk
He...he doesn't like me
Jeongguk stammers between hiccups.
Jeongguk
He treats me like a kid. I'm a burden to him. Nobody likes me...someone like Teacher Bae is suitable for him, not me. He comes home earlier these days...for her.
Duho's face darkens with concern, his heart aching for the young omega. He sits down beside Jeongguk, pulling him into a gentle embrace.
Kim Duho
That's not true, Jeongguk. You're not a burden. And Taehyung...he's just confused. We'll figure this out, okay?
Jeongguk looks up at his father-in-law, Duho, his eyes red and puffy from crying. He sniffs and wipes his nose with the sleeve of his sweater, trying to compose himself. Duho smiles softly, his eyes filled with warmth and understanding.
Despite being 21, Jeongguk is still a toddler at heart, innocent and pure. Duho knows he made the right decision in marrying Jeongguk to Taehyung, his oldest son. Jeongguk could never hurt Taehyung, who believes love is not written in his fate.
Duho's thoughts turn to Taehyung, confused and struggling to come to terms with his new role as a husband. The 17-year age gap between Taehyung and Jeongguk only adds to the complexity of their relationship. Jeongguk, with his zero maturity, can't even understand why his heart aches for Taehyung.
Duho's expression turns determined. He will guide Taehyung, help him understand Jeongguk's innocence and purity. He will ensure their bond grows stronger, and Taehyung learns to love and cherish Jeongguk for who he is.
Kim Duho
Jeongguk, my child
Duho says, his voice gentle.
Kim Duho
You are loved, and you deserve to be loved. Taehyung will come around, I promise.
Jeongguk looks up at Duho, his eyes searching for answers.
He asks, his voice barely above a whisper. He doesn't know what he wants, but he knows Taehyung is his husband, and he wants him near.
Duho smiles enigmatically.
Kim Duho
Just wait and watch.
Duho leads Jeongguk to the drawing room, where Hyeon Woo, Taekyu, Teacher Bae, and Taehyung are chatting. Jeongguk hesitates at the door, but Duho encourages him to enter.
As they enter, Duho addresses Teacher Bae, his voice firm.
Kim Duho
Miss Bae, I heard you're getting married soon. I think your future husband won't appreciate you flirting with another alpha man, especially when my son is already married. Even if he wasn't, I wouldn't have chosen you for him.
Teacher Bae's face reddens with anger, but Hyeon Woo explodes, his voice furious.
Hyeon Woo
How dare you insult her because of that orphan brat?
He points at Jeongguk, who keeps his eyes downcast.
Duho's expression turns stern.
Kim Duho
Taehyungie, I didn't expect you to neglect your own wedded omega while indulging in idle chatter with other omegas. Tomorrow, I'll appoint another teacher for Jeongguk.
With that, Duho makes his exit, leaving behind a room full of tension and anger.
Jeongguk sprints towards his room, a satisfied smile spreading across his face. He tries to imitate Duho's deep voice, repeating the words that had shut down Teacher Bae.
Jeongguk
" Miss Bae, I heard you're getting married soon...I think your future husband won't appreciate you flirting with another alpha man..."
He then switches to a high-pitched voice, mocking Teacher Bae's expression and tone.
Jeongguk
" Please, Mr. Kim, let me stay here and drool over your son..."
Jeongguk returns to his deep voice, continuing the scene.
Jeongguk
" Taehyungie, I didn't expect you to neglect your own wedded omega while indulging in idle chatter with omegas. Tomorrow, I'll appoint another teacher for Jeongguk."
Just as he finishes, he hears a throat clearing behind him. He turns to see Taehyung standing in the doorway, a amused smile on his face. Jeongguk's face turns bright red as he realizes he's been caught.
Mortified, Jeongguk dashes into the bathroom, slamming the door shut behind him. Taehyung bursts into laughter, unable to contain his amusement at the sight of his little omega, acting out the scene with such glee.
After 10 minutes, Jeongguk cautiously peeks his head out from the bathroom door. His eyes widen as he takes in the sight of Taehyung removing his shirt, revealing his broad, muscular chest. Jeongguk feels heat creeping up his face as he quickly looks away, but can't resist sneaking another glance.
Taehyung rubs his neck, trying to ease the tension, and his eyes land on Jeongguk peeking out from the bathroom. He bursts out laughing at the sight of Jeongguk's tiny, round head and big, doe-like eyes.
Kim Taehyung
Aww, he's even cuter than my own brothers!
Taehyung exclaims, his voice full of amusement.
Kim Taehyung
He's like a child you just want to put in your pocket!
Jeongguk's face turns bright red as Taehyung continues
Kim Taehyung
Taehyungie, I didn't expect Jeonggukie to copy me! How dare a little baby copy me! You should keep your omega in your pocket!
Taehyung teases, mimicking his father's words, but with a playful twist. Jeongguk's eyes sparkle with delight, and he can't help but giggle at Taehyung's silly antics.
Taehyung gestures for Jeongguk to come out of the bathroom, but Jeongguk shakes his head, still pouting. Taehyung tries to coax him out, saying
Kim Taehyung
Who's going to have vanilla ice cream with olive oil and sea salt?
Jeongguk's eyes widen at the mention of his favorite dessert, and he gulps, tempted. But he's still angry with Taehyung and doesn't want to give in easily.
Taehyung knows he has to lure Jeongguk out of the bathroom, so he continues to tease him.
Kim Taehyung
I'll eat it all by myself, then. I'm sure I can handle the whole bowl...
Jeongguk's face contorts in a mixture of anger and desire. He wants that ice cream, but he doesn't want to forgive Taehyung so easily. Taehyung knows he was wrong, but his male ego won't let him apologize just yet. He'll have to find another way to make amends with his little omega.
Taehyung returns with a bowl of vanilla ice cream topped with olive oil and sea salt and starts eating it with a straight face. He's trying to lure Jeongguk out of the bathroom, even though the ice cream tastes weird to him.
In a high-pitched voice, Taehyung mimics Teacher Bae
Kim Taehyung
" Taehyungssi, you shouldn't eat what your Jeonggukie eats. You should have crème brûlée like the elegant man you are."
Then, he switches to a softer, more melodramatic tone, imitating his omega father
Kim Taehyung
" Yes, Taehyungie, that ice cream tastes weird. Why not try some exquisite food?"
Clearing his throat, Taehyung returns to his deep, normal voice
Kim Taehyung
But Jeonggukie loves it. He says it tastes best now. I'll never give it to Jeonggukie.
And starts coughing because he wanted to mimic the devil's laughter.
The ridiculousness of Taehyung's antics makes Jeongguk giggle uncontrollably in the bathroom. He peeks out, his big, round eyes shining with mirth, and Taehyung catches his gaze. Still coughing from his over-the-top laughter, Taehyung grins mischievously, knowing he's got Jeongguk's attention.
Kim Taehyung
" Does little Jeonggukie want this ice cream? Or else Taehyungie will eat it alone."
He mimics his father's voice, trying to sound stern but clearly amused. Jeongguk comes out of the bathroom, still looking a bit sulky, and clutches both sides of his pajama. He eyes the ice cream longingly, but doesn't move closer.
Taehyung extends the bowl, tantalizingly close.
He asks, his voice dripping with sweetness. Jeongguk's eyes sparkle, and he nods, his pout starting to fade. Taehyung grins, triumphant.
Kim Taehyung
Give Taehyungie a kissy
He says, pointing to his cheek. But Jeongguk shakes his head, still a bit angry with Taehyung.
Taehyung pouts, pretending to be hurt.
Kim Taehyung
No kissy, no ice cream. Taehyungie won't play with Jeonggukie then.
He tries to look stern, but his eyes twinkle with mischief. Then, he pulls out the latest model of a miniature dollhouse from behind his back.
Kim Taehyung
Look what I got!
He exclaims, his voice full of excitement.
Jeongguk's eyes widen as he takes in the intricate details of the dollhouse. Taehyung remembered his father telling him before their wedding that Jeongguk was almost beaten to death at a rich man's house. The man had invited all the orphans to his daughter's birthday party, and Jeongguk couldn't resist touching the rich man's daughter's dollhouse. For that, he was beaten almost to death and had a fever for days. Orphans don't have the privilege of having their favorite toys or dolls. Taehyung wants to make up for that, to give Jeongguk all the things he never had.
Jeongguk starts eating the ice cream while eyeing the dollhouse. It's a DIY set, with all the parts included, just waiting to be glued together. From the sofa to the bed, every piece is separate, needing to be assembled to create the perfect miniature home. Jeongguk asks Taehyung, still in doubt
Kim Taehyung
Yes, but for that, you have to study well.
Jeongguk's face falls, and he starts sulking again. He doesn't like studying. Taehyung tries to reason with him
Kim Taehyung
Junior doesn't like studying, but I give him gifts to motivate him to study, and at the last minute, he crams and gets good marks. Now, does Jeongguk want to have gifts too?
Taehyung says mischievously, knowing he's successfully lured Jeongguk into studying. Jeongguk nods
Kim Taehyung
Then you'll have it after a month.
Jeongguk looks up at Taehyung with big, round eyes
Jeongguk
Will you make this house with me?
Taehyung is taken aback, he's never thought about making a dollhouse with his omega. He doesn't really want to, he's tired when he comes home and doesn't want to play with toys. But what can he do? Jeongguk is just a baby, and he has to treat him like one, not like a partner. He nods, trying to sound enthusiastic
Kim Taehyung
Of course, we'll make it together!
Taehyung and Jeongguk head to the dining room for dinner, but the tense atmosphere is palpable. Taehyung's parents are fighting again, their raised voices echoing through the hallways. Taehyung doesn't want to interfere, knowing his omega father's temper will only lead to hurtful words or actions towards Jeongguk. He hates Jeongguk to the core, and Taehyung won't let him harm his omega again.
At the dinner table, Taehyung lets Jeongguk use chopsticks for the first time, instead of his usual fork and spoon. Jeongguk eats happily, his eyes sparkling with delight. Taehyung smiles, watching him, but his peace is short-lived.
His phone buzzes with a message from his ex
" Meet me tomorrow, or else I will come to your home~ darling."
Taehyung's frustration boils over, and he blocks the number. He's had enough torture today - from his ex to Jeongguk's teacher, all of them want his body. Taehyung feels like he's losing control, like he's being pulled in too many directions.
He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself, but his mind races with anxiety. How can he protect Jeongguk from his father's cruelty and his ex's obsession? He feels trapped, unsure of how to escape the chaos surrounding him.
Taehyung steps out onto the balcony, lighting a cigar as he gazes out into the night. He can't help but curse himself, feeling trapped in a life he never wanted. Jeongguk is sprawled across their bed again, a reminder of the responsibilities Taehyung never asked for.
He takes a long drag on his cigar, feeling the smoke burn his lungs. He never wanted to be a noble, never wanted the wealth and privilege that came with it. And he definitely never wanted to be beautiful, not when it only seemed to attract unwanted attention.
Taehyung's eyes drift down to his own body, his gaze lingering on his lower region. He sighs, frustration etched on his face.
Kim Taehyung
Why the fùck are you so big?
He mutters to himself, as if his physical attributes are a curse.
He feels like his beauty is a burden, a magnet for all the wrong people. His ex, Jeongguk's teacher and many unwanted people- they all want something from him, something he's not willing to give. Taehyung takes another drag on his cigar, feeling the weight of his circumstances bearing down on him.
Taehyung wakes up to an empty bed, but soon hears the sound of Jeongguk stirring. He turns to see Jeongguk waking up with a start, then rushing towards the bathroom. Taehyung's mind quickly does the math - they've been married for a month now, and Jeongguk was already 6 weeks pregnant when they got married. That makes Jeongguk 10 weeks pregnant now, almost 3 months.
Taehyung's heart skips a beat as he realizes the importance of getting Jeongguk to the hospital for a check-up. He can't let his omega father discover Jeongguk's pregnancy on his own terms - who knows what he might do? Taehyung throws off the covers and gets out of bed, determined to take care of his omega and Jeongguk's unborn child.
Kim Taehyung
Jeongguk, I'm taking you to the hospital today
Taehyung says firmly, standing outside the bathroom door.
Kim Taehyung
We need to make sure everything is okay with you.
He can hear Jeongguk's muffled agreement.
Taehyung takes Jeongguk to hospital after breakfast
Taehyung leads Jeongguk into the doctor's office, his eyes scanning the room to ensure they are alone. He has specifically requested a male omega doctor, not wanting any alpha to touch Jeongguk during the check-up. The doctor, a kind-faced omega with a gentle smile, greets them warmly.
The doctor says, gesturing to the examination table.
" Can you tell me what's been going on, Jeongguk? What have you been feeling lately? "
Jeongguk looks up at Taehyung, who is nonchalant.
Jeongguk
I've been feeling...dizzy
Jeongguk starts, his voice soft.
Jeongguk
And nauseated. I don't really want to eat much, and the vomiting...it's constant.
The doctor nods sympathetically, his eyes flicking to Taehyung.
" I see. And when did these symptoms start?"
Taehyung answers, his voice firm.
Kim Taehyung
About a month ago. We got married, and...
The doctor nods, his expression professional.
"I see. Well, let's take a look."
He conducts a quick examination, his hands gentle on Jeongguk's stomach.
Finally, he steps back, a smile on his face.
" Congratulations, Taehyungssi. Jeonggukssi is indeed pregnant. About 10 weeks along, I'd say."
The doctor's words hang in the air as Jeongguk's heart almost stops beating. He was already pregnant when he got married to Taehyung...and he doesn't know who the father is. Memories flood his mind, making his face pale.
It happened after he became an adult. He was in heat, and someone spiked his juice at a party of his friend's birthday. The next morning, he woke up naked, covered in hickeys, and dried fluid running down his legs. He couldn't stand, and he hid it from the orphanage authority. But after a month, they found out about his pregnancy.
They strictly ordered him to hide the fact and contacted the owner of the orphanage, Kim Duho. So he could arrange an alpha to marry Jeongguk, hiding the fact that he was already pregnant. And that alpha was Taehyung, Kim Duho's own son.
Jeongguk's eyes widen in horror as he looks at Taehyung, who seems oblivious to the truth.
Jeongguk's hands are sweaty and shaking as he sits in the doctor's office, his eyes fixed on Taehyung's back. He's afraid of what might happen next, afraid that Taehyung will reject him. They've been married for a month, but Taehyung hasn't touched him yet, except for that one time...when he helped Jeongguk reach his climax. But that wasn't sèx, that was just...comfort.
Jeongguk gulps hard, his mind racing with worst-case scenarios. What if Taehyung kicks him out of his life? What if he doesn't want to raise a child that isn't his own? Jeongguk's heart is racing as he watches Taehyung talk to the doctor, his face calm and collected. God knows what they're discussing.
Jeongguk's eyes drop to his lap, his hands clenched into fists. He feels like he's living a lie, trapped in a marriage built on secrets and deception. He doesn't know how much longer he can keep this up, how much longer he can pretend that everything is okay when it's not.
Taehyung collects the medicine, test results, and prescription, his movements swift and efficient. He gestures for Jeongguk to follow him, and they hop in the car. As Taehyung drives, Jeongguk looks at him with big, doe-like eyes, brimming with tears.
Taehyung keeps his gaze on the road, but he can see Jeongguk's gaze on him from his peripheral vision. He says, his voice low and even
Kim Taehyung
Tell eomeoni that you're 4 weeks pregnant, not 10 weeks. I told the doctor to write it on the prescription as well.
Jeongguk nods, his fingers fidgeting in his lap. Then, he asks, his voice barely above a whisper
Jeongguk
Can I...abort the child?
Taehyung's hands tighten on the steering wheel as he abruptly stops the car. He turns to face Jeongguk, his eyes searching for answers. The air is thick with tension as they sit there, the only sound the ticking of the engine. Taehyung's expression is unreadable, but his eyes burn with intensity.
Jeongguk's words tumble out in a desperate rush
Jeongguk
I know I was wrong, I should have told you about the pregnancy, but I was afraid. The orphanage authority told me I couldn't reveal it to anyone, it would tarnish the reputation of the orphanage. Abeonim didn't know I was pregnant, or else he wouldn't have made you marry me.
Jeongguk's voice cracks as he continues, tears streaming down his face
Jeongguk
I promise, I don't know who the father is. I never had a boyfriend. I was at a friend's birthday party...then next day I woke up naked and in pain. I didn't tell anyone, but the orphanage found out I was pregnant.
Taehyung's gaze bores into Jeongguk, his expression unreadable. Then, he says, his voice firm
Kim Taehyung
But you won't abort the baby.
Jeongguk looks at Taehyung, confusion etched on his face.
He asks, his voice barely above a whisper.
Taehyung's response is immediate, his voice firm
Kim Taehyung
I don't want you to abort the child. You will give birth to this child, no matter what. Is that clear, Jeongguk?
Jeongguk nods, still looking at Taehyung with questioning eyes. Why does Taehyung want to keep Jeongguk's child when he's not even the father? The question hangs in the air, unanswered.
