Third person POV

The blonde was sitting on the bed in the same room where Jungkook had left him, his head in his hands, he was frustrated, the male wanted to cry in agony but tears refused to leave his eyes.

He wanted to curse, he wanted to scream and yelled painfully hard, but not a word left his mouth.

Out of frustration, anger, sadness a tear slipped down from cheeks, followed by other and another- his life was fucked up! Everything was fucked up!

He couldn't think straight, he was alone, alone with the beast who wanted revenge but nothing.

His son, his baby, his Jaehyun weren't there either, his wide innocent smile no longer in Taehyung's sight, again.

But he was relieved, a little part of his heart beating in peace and calm, his baby was safe- safe with the male who promised Taehyung of Jaehyun's safety.

And just the blonde knew no matter what he wouldn't hurt his son.

.

.

.

.

"He is yours!" The deep husky voice echoed in the room as Taehyung shielded his son, pulling him behind his back.

The man came forward, his steps made Taehyung flinch lightly and the blonde could feel Jaehyun leaning on his back- no no baby you can't sleep now!

The blonde panicked, when the male in front of him sat down on the bed, his eyes still hard but soft as he patted the side beside his.

Taehyung's heart beating rapidly, eyes shining with hesitation, cowering in the corner from fear, he flinched hard when the elder spoke.

"Tae lay the boy here, he is sleepy." The blonde looked back, watching Jaehyun leaning on his back sleepily as he hesitated.

"Taehyung, I will not hurt you or your kid, come here and lay him down." The male said, giving a short assuring smile.

The blonde licked his lips, nervously turning around and picking up the boy in his arms, the small coconut head resting on his shoulder and Taehyung's hand tucked under his bumbum.

The blonde stepped forward, laying his son down, his fingers caressing through the boy's locks out of a habit, as he sat down in between the elder and the kid, his figure defensive.

"Why didn't you tell anyone that he had abused you Taehyung, why ?" The elder asked, connecting the dots of Jaehyun's abusive father and the kid being Taehyung's son.

"We could have helped you!" He exclaimed, startling the blonde who refused to meet his eyes as the male sighed but his head snapped at the other when heard a sob.

"How c-could I ? I-i deserved that, it w-was my fault.." The blonde cried out, painful sobs leaving his mouth as the other's eyes softened.

"No Taehyung, it wasn't your fault. You don't deserve that- No one does!"

The blonde continued to sob, hiccups past his lips, eyes teary as his cheeks and nose tainted red adorably. The male in front of him wanted to hug the other but didn't.

"Taehyung.." The soft call caught his attention as he looked at the elder with a red nose and wet cheeks.

"Did you- did you give birth to Jaehyun willingly ?" The elder asked, voice filled with hesitation and fear as the blonde broke down into loud cries,

"He, h-he s-sexually h-harassed m-me, h-hyung.." A gasp left Yoongi's mouth, the male instantly rushed to Taehyung, capturing him in his arms he tried to shush the younger man up.

"I will fucking kill him!" The elder uttered in rage, clenching his jaw, rubbing the boy's back.

The blonde continued to sob on Yoongi's shoulder, tears wetting Yoongi's shirt, the male didn't let go of the blonde unless his cries turned into soft sniffles but the next words gave shivers down his spine.

"We have to tell Jungkook!"

Yoongi said but was startled when Taehyung broke the hug, his eyes wide in fear and panic as he stumbled back almost falling down from the bed.

His chocolate brown orbs instantly fell on Jaehyun as the blonde rushed to the kid, hugging his tiny body in his own arms.

"We can't! W-we can't please." He cried out loud, Yoongi looking pitiful at the fear filled state of the blonde.

"He can help you, Taehyung."

"No! H-he, he w-will kill my baby!" Taehyung cried out, his arms tightening on his sleeping son, eyes shut as they spilled tears.

"You aren't trying to understand Taehyung, Jungkook hates you- his hate for you will not let you live, his hate will leave you traumatised and I don't want you to suffer anymore." Yoongi exclaimed, voice raising but dying down, Taehyung's heart rapidly beating inside his limbs.

"H-he, he will kill J-Jaehyun!" The blonde cried out, crawling back as he looked up at the elder with bloodshot teary eyes.

"And why the fuck you care for him ? He is forced on you! He isn't your son!" Before Yoongi could think, those words were rolling out from his tongue which he regretted instantly when saw Taehyung's eyes suddenly looking at his with terror.

"No! N-no, he is, i-is my everything, m-my baby, I-i can't.." The male rambled fearfully, shifting back more from Yoongi when the other tried to hug him.

Taehyung broke down into loud cries, trying to get away from Yoongi's grip, who didn't let go of the younger one when he thrashed in his arms.

"Shh- Taehyung, I am sorry, so sorry." Yoongi whispered.

"He is everything hyung, I-i kept him in my belly for n-nine months, he i-is my baby, when I-i had no one- h-he was there, when no one- n-no one wanted me he called me a-appa, when everyone fo-found me disgusting he was the one to give me ki-kisses, when I-i cried he was the one to wipe my t-tears." Taehyung cried, the blonde couldn't even think of losing Jaehyun, even the thought of losing his baby drove Taehyung insane.

"Pl-please I beg you, b-beg of y-you, pl-please d-don't tell him, any- anything, pl-please."

The elder male sucked in a deep breath. Taehyung was right, he was Jaehyun's appa, Taehyung wouldn't let anyone harm his son.

"Taehyung, look- look at me." Yoongi called as he cupped the blonde's cheeks, who looked at him with wet cheeks and red nose.

"I will not tell him, I will not tell anybody that Jaehyun is your son okay ? I-i promise."

The male promised, wiping the blonde's tears who leaned in his hyung's touch, but soon Yoongi's eyes went wide as he hurriedly broke the hug and started to find something.

"Taehyung, lift Jaehyun up, y-you have to go, I can't see you here getting hurt by Jungkook, c'mon get up, I will escort you somewhere with Jaehyun, you can hide before I send you to Canada." The elder male spoke, opening the wardrobe as he got a bag and started filling it with some of Jungkook's shirts wanting to make Taehyung leave as soon as he could.

The blonde stared at his hyung with warmness filling his orbs, as he stood up and placed his hand on the other's shoulder. Eyes spilling warmness, lips adoring a weak smile.

"I-i am not going anywhere hyung." Taehyung let out softly making Yoongi looked at his he had grown thrones,

"Have you lost your mind, Jungkook will kill you! He is a fucking insane and psychopath- a fucking monster!" Yoongi spoke, turning around but was stopped when Taehyung held his hand softly.

"Jungkook isn't insane or a monster hyung, he is hurt and in pain, he behaved like a bipolar because he is hurt to the core that isn't even able to cope up with his emotions and-" Taehyung paused, eyes filling with warm water "-I made him like this."

"I have made the mistake of leaving him in the past, I wouldn't dare to repeat it hyung, I don't know if Jungkook loves me or not but maybe I can help him to become sane again." The blonde uttered softly, eyes started spilling water from the guilt, the elder trying to speak more;

"No hyung, please, please don't. I-if I left him t-today, Jungkook w-would lose himself I-i know, pl-please don't.." Yoongi looked at the blonde with sad eyes, his heart beating fast from the worry and the fear for Taehyung.

"B-but promise me one thing h-hyung-" Taehyung said as he looked at the other with hopeful eyes who nodded at him.

"Pl-please keep Jaehyun s-safe." Taehyung begged, eyes watery as he glanced back at the kid.

"Pl-please, Jaehyun has seen me suffered so much, h-he was abused in h-his young age a-and has seen h-his appa getting hit f-from his own father, j-just take him away from here." The blonde pleaded,

"But how can I take him away Taehyung, he is your son-

"Pl-please hyung, d-do anything b-but please keep my baby safe, I-i can take everything but c-can't see him hurt, please." Taehyung begged, clasping his hands in front of Yoongi who stared at him with sad and guilty expressions, glancing back at the kid, he slightly nodded his head making Taehyung let out a painful smile.

The elder hugged the blonde, before he left the room, telling him he would do something as the male looked at his baby, kneeling down on the floor, he held Jaehyun's small hands in his.

His chocolate brown orbs continuously spilled silent tears before it became too unbearable as he broke down into loud cries.

"I-i am sorry baby, a-appa is sorry, f-forgive me please- pl-please I am sorry." The blonde cried out, heavy sobs leaving his mouth, his slender fingers making their way to the child's fluffy locks as he spoke;

"Y-you are my b-brave baby, r-right, pl-please, don't h-hate your appa, y-you always understand m-me please do it this time t-too, pl-please forgive me."

The blonde cried and cried, till his sobs turned into sniffles, eyes hurting from the continuous cryings, orbs fixed at the sleeping baby, his fingers caressing the kid's forehead lovingly.

Soon Yoongi came back and took Jaehyun with him to his and Jimin's room. And before the mafia was back, everything got settled.

Only two people knew about Jaehyun's and Taehyung's relationship, Yoongi and Hoseok, the other male found out when he did some research on the kid but he didn't dare to open his mouth in fear of Jaehyun's well-being, later the elder assured him that he would take care of everything.

When the mafia came back, Hoseok and Yoongi were present in his office with Namjoon, who suspected something fishy from the other two's faces.

They told the mafia about the sudden emergency in the headquarters of other cities and how they have planned to work separately now.

The mafia agreed, giving them a stern nod, his eyebrows frowned from the sudden emergency but didn't question his hyungs.

He decided that he would live here in Seoul with Taehyung, Namjoon, Jin and Hoseok would go to Daegu. And yoongi and jimin would go to busan.

The mafia was stubborn to kept the child with himself but when Yoongi told him that Jimin was getting better from his past miscarriage condition, he dropped his stubbornness.

They all left with the first rays of sun, the blonde kept on crying his heart out, not even once sleep came to him, his mind filled with sadness and fear.

But he felt warm when Yoongi brought sleeping Jaehyun to meet with him, his heart clenching when he kissed the boy's forehead and cheeks, wishing him good and saying his last goodbye to his son.

Everyone knows that the kid was a heavy sleeper and because Yoongi had smelled Jaehyun chloroform to make him sleep, no one doubted anything- not even the mafia as he was busy in his office.

The elder male knew that if in any case Jaehyun woke up he wouldn't let go of Taehyung and would cry rivers to stay with his appa.

The blonde worried as fear filled his heart for two reasons- he knew when Jaehyun would wake up, he would be hurt, in pain, he would be angry with him- and the other reason;

Was alone the mafia Jeon Jungkook.

.

.

.

.

The blonde was laying on the bed lifeless, his eyes dry from continuous crying, like there was no more water left in him, he was weak from the crying and hadn't eaten anything for more than 24 hours.

His heart was hurting, his breath was low as his body was wrapped itself around himself, his knees touching his chest and arms hugging his knees, eyes bloodshot red and swollen.

The blonde's ears got filled with the door opening but he just couldn't move, he knew the other was mafia from his stern footsteps and also because now he was alone with Jungkook.

A tear made its way down Taehyung's cheeks when heard something dropping on the side table, he knew the mafia had bought him food.

Suddenly his heart felt heavy as guilt of his past doings filled it, he wanted to cry in the other's arms, he wanted to feel the same embrace that used to- does provide him warmth.

Call him selfish or pathetic but after the tortures of years, unbearable hurt and pain, Taehyung only wanted him, the blonde knew only the mafia- his Jungkook could provide him the warmth that used to make him feel secure.

A sob escaped his strawberry lips on his own thoughts, tears flowing more furiously. The whimper caught Jungkook off guard as he thought that the younger was sleeping from the lack of response.

Before he could speak, another sob and hiccup left Taehyung's lips, unknowingly his heart clenched.

"Taehyung.." The mafia called, wanting to sound firm and cold but ended up being let out in the softest voice he could.

The mafia frowned in confusion when the other didn't turn around as he stepped closer to the other, placing his hand on his shoulder and wanting to turn the blonde around.

His heart was beating in worry as Taehyung's cries became loud and he cried hysterically, was it because of him- did I do wrong about lying about his son- the mafia thought.

But he got startled when the blonde suddenly turned around and hugged his torso tight, small fists clenching on his shirt from back as Taehyung buried his face on Jungkook's tummy.

Taehyung's tears wetting Jungkook's shirt which was frozen in place, his body becoming stiff from the sudden move, the mafia wanted to push the younger man away but chose otherwise as he wrapped his arms around the blonde's head, patting his head carefully.

His tattooed fingers passed through his blonde locks as he kept on caressing and massaging the blonde's scalp, wanting to whisper sweet nothings but words refused to leave his mouth, another arm slipping down on Taehyung's back caressing it softly.

"I-i an sorry, pl-please forgive me, I-i an sorry, koo.."

Should he forgive Taehyung ?

When Yoongi and Jimin reached their mansion, Jaehyun was still sleeping. The elder lifted the child up as he laid him down on the comfy couch in his living room, a sigh from tiredness leaving both of their mouths.

The kid stirred in his sleep, his eyes fluttering open as the boy sat up rubbing his eyes with his tiny fist making both the other male cooed.

"Did you sleep well, Jaehyun ?" Jimin's soft voice filled his ears and the boy looked at him but his eyes went wide when noticed the unfamiliar surroundings.

The kid stood up hurriedly only to fall back on the couch because of the dizziness, both the male quickly approaching him, their hearts filled with worry.

"Are you oka-

"A-appa- appa! W-where is my a-appa ?" Jimin looked at the child confused, as the kid rambled, his eyes turning glossy which made Yoongi's eyes widened, he didn't expect that.

"Baby, it's okay. We will find your appa soon, yeah ?" The younger male tried to calm down the boy, who refused to listen to anything, tears finally dropping down his cheeks.

"No! H-he was there, h-he c-came to meet me, h-he did! He p-promised, h-he will not leave m-me." The boy cried out loud.

Jimin looked at Yoongi with confusion on his face watching his husband let out a sigh, before the male sat on the couch and grabbed the crying kid, making him sit in his lap.

"Un-uncle, b-believe me- he- he was t-there.." The kid looked at Yoongi who nodded at him lightly, the kid's face wet with tears.

"I know Jae, I know. And your appa gave me this, read it first okay ? Sh- sh- stop crying my boy." The elder male uttered, wiping the kid's tears who looked down at the Male's hand and picked the letter up.

"You know how to read ?" The boy nodded at the question, his small hands fumbling with the paper as he started reading it.

By the time Jaehyun was done reading the letter, Yoongi told everything to Jimin whether out gasping in unbelief, the kid crying hysterically.

Jimin took the paper from the kid's hands, reading it up he looked at Jaehyun with sad eyes as he lifted Jaehyun up from Yoongi's lap to his, rocking the kid back and forth, the child crying in his chest.

The elder male kept his one hand on his husband's back, rubbing soothingly as the other opened the same letter by the blonde, he sighed after reading the piece of paper.

Dear Jaehyun,

My lovely baby,

Jaehyun, you are my brave boy right ? Will you do something for your appa, please stay with both of your uncle's like a good boy.

I have to do this for your safety, please forgive your appa for breaking his promise, you know I love you the most.

I don't know if I would ever meet you again, Jaehyun, please be a good boy and stay with your uncles, they both will take care of you.

And- and I am sorry, forgive me please.

Your appa

Kim Taehyung

The kid sobbed loudly, only one thing in his mind, his appa didn't want him, he left him, he broke his promise. His next words were silent that echoed in his mind but they were louder, louder than bombs.

"I hate you appa, you broke your promise!"

Fate and faith,

They are rivals and bestfriend,

Faith could change your fate and;

Fate could change your faith.

Jungkook's faith in love was changed by his fate;

And Taehyung's faith would change his fate.

Who would win, fate or faith ?

It was nothing more but a game.
