"another accident"

Jungkook, Jimin, and Taehyung interaction in this chapter is funny, I promise.😂

Jungkook's penthouse was a sanctuary in the heart of the bustling city, The interior was a blend of sleek, modern design and comforting warmth. Polished wooden floors stretched out underfoot, contrasting with the cool marble accents and plush rugs. The soft, muted colors of the walls and furnishings created a calming ambiance. The large glass window that wrapped around the living area offered breathtaking views of the city at sunset, expensive windows allowed the evening sun to cast a soft, golden glow across the luxurious furnishings.

As Jungkook sat on the plush, charcoal-gray sofa, he watched the city below through the glass walls, the world passing by, oblivious to his inner turmoil, a stark contrast to the weight of his cousin's words. She sat in a high-backed armchair, her posture graceful but her expression full of concern. Her two and half-years-old daughter, a cherubic girl with rosy cheeks and a head of curly hair, bundle of energy and innocence, the child's giggle filled the room as she rolled on fluffy carpet cutely, a delightful counterpoint to the serious conversation, . Jungkook couldn't help but be drawn into her laughter, his fingers gently tickling her tiny hands.

His cousin- Lee jiyeon leaned in, her eyes fixed on him. "Kook, you know you're at the right age now. It's time to consider finding a suitable mate for yourself, or at least let me help you with the search." It's an known subject between them, her concern was valid but so was Jungkook's reason for Denial.

Jungkook's body tensed slightly, his gaze fixed on the distant cityscape other side of glass wall, He took a deep breath before responding, "I appreciate your concern, but I can't bring myself to trust someone that way, not after what happened, I can't risk being abandoned again."

Her hand reached out and rested gently on his forearm. "I understand, kook. What happened, what your mother did was not something pleasing but it been years, you are not seven anymore, life is all about forgetting, forgiving and move on, not everyone will treat you the same way, not everyone is unfaithful, You can find love and trust. You don't have to face life's challenges alone, mate a decent omega. Kook, life is very long and spending it alone is unimaginable" she was worried for her beloved cousin, not only she but her brother and dad was also worried for Jungkook.

They know Jungkook's past, his sufferings.

Jungkook didn't say anything, he didn't try to correct her, his past was tangled to his soul, everything, every steps he take was influenced by his past- his unloved childhood, his jaw was clenched, as he peeled eyes from glass wall and turn to jiyeon, who smiled softly, caressing his coated forearm, his sweet cousin.

"Let not talk about this" he mumble, gazing at the little pup on rug, Jungkook's niece, oblivious to the complexities of adult discussions, her small fist was in her pouty mouth, she was sucking her whole fist, cheeks were puff out, Jungkook reach down smiling and scoop the little angel in his arm who squeak being separate from her beloved rug.

Jungkook's cousin, Jiyeon, sighed in resignation, her initial concern about his reluctance to mate giving way to the practicality of the moment. She leaned back in her chair, crossing her legs, and then asked, "Alright, I won't press you further on this for now. Tell me, how's your office? Any exciting news to share?" Everyone know how passionate Jungkook is towards his business, that he and his father built on their own.

Jungkook's black eyes lit up as he delved into the world of business, a topic that always brought out his passion. "Well, the electronic company is doing better than ever. We recently closed a major deal with another tech giant. Profits are soaring, and we're making strides in innovation. It's a busy, but fulfilling time." His lithe fingers caress the soft skin of pup puffy flushed cheek, who made a grabby hand try to catch her uncle's finger, her both small chubby hands wrapped around Jungkook index finger, pup open her mouth try to sop up on his uncle's finger.
