Kim Family House, 9 pm

"Why you didn't tell me about her?" Jennie couldn't hold her curiosity at all. She had tried to hold herself to not know about it but she failed. She wanted to know about the truth, directly from him. She didn't know why she felt so angry and sad, perhaps because so far he has been hiding this secret from her. And it's actually made her down

"Why did you lie to me by telling her as your friend, why?" Tears was streaming down her cheeks. Taehyug sighed, he didn't think she would know this as soon as today. Of course he was a little upset to Yoongi, but he couldn't blame on him. He knew that sooner or later Jennie would find out the truth by herself

"I was going too. But I'm too scared"

"What?" She frowned in disbelief "Because she is too important to you? And I'm nothing to you? Huh?!" She yelled in frustration. Jennie Kim never yelled to her husband. She was always polite and obedient. But not for this time, she felt like she will exploded with anger

"Jen...." He had no idea how to explain her properly, correctly. He scared that he would only make another mistake

"Just answer me, Tae. I'm your wife, but I don't know about your past. You even lied to me in order to hide her identity from me. I...." Jennie lost her words. She wiped her tears as tried to manage her breath

Taehyung exhaled and closed his eyes. He tried to manage his emotion and arranged the words in mind "Yes it's true. I dated her when we were in college. I ever proposed her before I met you but she refused me" He paused to look at her response but Jennie remained on her position and waiting for him to explain it all truthfully

"I decided not to tell you because I thought she was just past that I don't want to remember again. I didn't want to ruin our happiness, Jen. After all, we lost contact since she left me" Taehyung said honestly. He was ready for the worst. He knew that he did something wrong. He should have honest to her since the beginning so she wouldn't be so shock like this

"Do you still love her?"

He immediately shook his head "No. Not at all. I already moved on when the first time I saw you. That's why I could fall in love with you and decided to marry you, because I love you, Jen" He held her palm. He didn't know how to make her believe in him. Taehyung almost gave up

"Then why you lied to me? Does it mean that she was really important to you and you still can't move on, huh?" Jennie still not satisfied with his confession, but she already lowered her tone and calmed herself

"NO! I said no!" Taehyung yelled in frustration "How many times I must say to you that Joy is just my past and accidentally she became my business partner, nothing else. That's it! Ugh!" He walked towards the bathroom and slammed the door so hard, made Jennie cry even more

They didn't think that a romantic honeymoon had to end with quarrel and tears. Of course they don't want it. If only he was honest from the beginning, maybe it will never happen. That night, for the first time they shared a bed with back side position while tears kept rolling down her cheeks

~•☆♡☆•~

This has been three days they didn't speak each other. Actually it was Jennie who decided not to speak. Somehow she felt so much better to keep quiet to heal her wounds. She was trying to digest the fact that she had knew and trying to forgive her husband. But she failed. Everytime she wanted to dared herself to speak, ultimately she changed her mind and remained in silence

Meanwhile, Taehyung kept trying so hard to ask for her forgiveness. lHe was often approached her to talk, but ended with no result. She refused to talk and avoided him. She still couldn't understand why could he keep it secret from her

They're a married couple, aren't they? All the essence of marriage was about honesty and trust? Yeah, I told you once again that the essence of marriage : Honesty and Trust. Without those two things, households will not last long. Only a matter of time until it was destroyed and end up with regrets

And Jennie thought that they have already been honest to each other since the first time they committed to be together. But she was wrong. Unfortunately Taehyung hasn't completely honest with herself and it hurt her so badly

"You guys still not talking to each other?" Luna asked Jennie when they sat in the corner of coffee shop at their break time. Once again, Lisa and Rose couldn't join them because they was on the working trip in Paris with their boss

Jennie sighed and nodded her. She kept stirring her green tea latte lazily while Luna was bitting her lower lip nervously. She felt pity to her, she wanted to tell the truth but she's too scare that Jennie will be more sad and dissapointed

"Jennie, do you believe your husband, right? I mean you know that he loves you so much" Luna paused when she saw Jennie nodded her head slowly, like she wasn't pay any intention to the topic "Hmm, and you sure that Taehyung will never betray you, right?"
