Reborn In My Favourite Comic (TaeKook)
Chapter 16: The Truth in the Diary
The weight of Namjoon’s stare pressed heavily on Taehyung’s shoulders. He had just demonstrated an ability no one thought he possessed, and now they demanded answers. He needed to choose his words carefully.

“I wanted to get stronger,”
Taehyung finally spoke, his voice even but laced with emotion.
Kim taehyung
“Not because I suddenly had some hidden talent, but because I had a reason to.”
Kim namjoon
“And what reason is that?”
Taehyung hesitated for a moment before stepping forward.
Kim taehyung
“Because I found your old diary Daddy.”
Namjoon’s eyes darkened immediately, a flicker of something unrecognizable flashing across his face.
Lisa and Jimin exchanged confused looks, but Seokjin stiffened beside them, his usually calm demeanor suddenly guarded.
Kim taehyung
“I read about your past, Dad,”
Taehyung continued, watching Namjoon carefully.
Kim taehyung
“I know you weren’t always the powerful CEO everyone sees today. You used to be a delinquent. Someone who fought to survive before taking over the Kim family’s hotel and restaurant business.”
Namjoon’s jaw clenched, but he remained silent. Taehyung took it as a sign to keep going.
Kim taehyung
“I learned how many enemies you made along the way, how people wanted to bring you down.”
He inhaled sharply, determination burning in his gaze.
Kim taehyung
“That’s why you’ve always been so overprotective of me. Because you didn’t want me to get caught in the crossfire.”.
Lisa’s mouth parted slightly, absorbing the revelation. Jimin looked at Namjoon in disbelief.
kim lisa
“Wait… you were a delinquent uncle!!?”
Namjoon shot him a sharp look, but Taehyung didn’t stop.
Kim taehyung
“I didn’t want to stay weak and be the person you had to protect all the time dad,”
Taehyung said, his voice firm.
Kim taehyung
“I wanted to be strong enough to protect myself. To deal with your enemies myself.”
Namjoon’s eyes flickered with something unreadable.
Kim namjoon
“You think you can handle them?”
Kim taehyung
“I know I can. And I will. So you don’t have to worry about me anymore dad.”
The room fell into a heavy silence. Seokjin sighed and rubbed his temples, finally breaking it.
Kim seokjin
“This is insane.”
kim lisa
“You’re not a fighter, Taehyung. Even if you learned some moves, these people play dirty.”
Kim taehyung
“And so do I.”
Namjoon took a deep breath, studying his son for a long moment. Then, unexpectedly, he let out a low chuckle. It wasn’t amusement—it was something darker, something filled with understanding.
Kim namjoon
“You really have changed,”
Kim namjoon
“Not just in skills, but in mind.”
Kim taehyung
“I had to dad.”
Another long pause stretched between them before Namjoon finally spoke.
Namjoon raised a hand to silence her. His eyes never left Taehyung’s.
Kim namjoon
“If you’re that determined, I won’t stop you. But don’t expect me to stand by and do nothing if things go south.”
A slow smile spread across Taehyung’s face.
Kim taehyung
“Wouldn’t expect anything less.”
Namjoon shook his head, a small smirk tugging at his lips.
Kim namjoon
“Then let’s see how you handle your first real challenge.”
Taehyung’s heart pounded in anticipation. This was just the beginning
