Episode 17
Over the past week... Jungkook settled into his new home with his grandmother....The house was modern yet warm... filled with sunlight and open spaces...a perfect blend of comfort and freedom....
grandma
"It’s too grand for an old lady like me.." halmeoni said... running her hands over the furniture....
Jeon jungkook
Jungkook smiled... wrapping an arm around her.... "You’re staying with me...Halmeoni. No arguments..."
He filled the space with music... framed memories...
And a new companion....the little puppy he had rescued....

Watching him dote on it...Seokjin groaned.."You spoil that dog...."
Jeon jungkook
"he is family now..." Jungkook grinned....
grandma
His grandmother only smiled. "Just like your mother... she loved animals too..."
That alone made this place feel like home....
The following day....as the weekend arrived...Jungkook received an unexpected invitation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.... It was a formal request...inviting him as a special guest to an exclusive gathering....

Seokjin skimmed through the letter, raising a brow...."Looks like Korea is already trying to reel you in...global star...."
Jeon jungkook
Jungkook chuckled...leaning back on the couch.... "It’s just a party... hyung..."
kim seok jin
"A party where top officials and elites will be present..." Seokjin reminded him... "Are you sure you want to go?"
Jungkook tapped his fingers against the table...thinking....He wasn’t a fan of such events...but as an artist building his presence in Korea...it was a good opportunity..
Jeon jungkook
"I’ll go..." he finally decided....
kim seok jin
Seokjin sighed.... "Fine, but you’re wearing something sharp.... No running around in oversized hoodies...."
Jeon jungkook
"They are comfortable ok..."
Jeon jungkook
"Don't say anything to them .."
At the same time... Taehyung received the same invitation....
The party was being held to commemorate a recent diplomatic deal with the USA
.. a project that had been largely his idea.... As the Crown Prince, his presence wasn’t just expected...it was essential....
Taehyung stared at the invitation with mild irritation....He hated parties....the meaningless chatter..., the fake smile.... It was all a performance he had perfected over the years... But skipping it wasn’t an option.... He had a reputation to uphold....
one of discipline and responsibility...
Without a word...he set the invitation down and exhaled slowly.... He would go.... But only for a short time.... Long enough to fulfill his duty....but not a second more....
