The masked Billionaire { T.K } ✔️

Chapter 24

Third person's pov

Jungkook sighed as he lay on his bed, staring up at the ceiling. He had asked Taehyung to leave the room, not because he didn't appreciate his presence, but because he needed some time alone.

"I'm fine, Tae, just need some space."

Taehyung got up from his chair, understanding Jungkook's need for solitude. "Alright."

As Taehyung made his way downstairs, he found Mr. Jeon still sitting in the living room, patiently waiting. Taehyung approached him and spoke, "Jungkook doesn't want to talk right now, so it's probably best if you leave for now."

Mr. Jeon nodded and stood up and hugged Taehyung slightly.

Taehyung returned the hug briefly and then watched Mr. Jeon as he left the house. After the door closed, Taehyung sat down on the sofa, deep in thought.

He mumbled to himself, "Hmm, either you're feeling guilty, Jeon, or you're definitely up to something," pondering the real reason for Mr. Jeon's visit and his intentions. Taehyung couldn't help but feel that there was more to it than met the eye.

At night.......

As Taehyung sat at the dining table, he couldn't help but notice Jungkook's struggle with eating. His husband sat across from him, pushing the food around on his plate with a distant look in his eyes.

Taehyung decided to intervene,

He put down his phone and picked up Jungkook's fork, gently guiding a bite of food toward Jungkook's mouth. The touch was tender, and Taehyung's eyes held a soft understanding as he encouraged Jungkook to eat.

At first, Jungkook hesitated, but he relented and accepted the food. As he chewed, his eyes welled up with tears.

Tears streamed down Jungkook's cheeks, and he looked at Taehyung.

He took another bite, still overcome with tears.

Taehyung set aside the fork and walked over to Jungkook. He placed a comforting hand on his back and rubbed it gently. "Jungkook, it's okay," Taehyung whispered. "You don't have to hold everything in."

Jungkook couldn't contain his emotions any longer. He pushed his plate away and abruptly stood up, his teary eyes locked on Taehyung.

He stumbled into Taehyung's embrace, wrapping his arms around Taehyung's waist as if he were seeking solace,

Taehyung was taken aback for a moment but quickly adjusted. He embraced Jungkook tightly, holding him close. Jungkook's shoulders shook as he sobbed into Taehyung's chest.

"I don't know what to do, Taehyung," Jungkook mumbled between sobs. "My head is spinn-ning, and it's a-all so confusing."

Taehyung continued to provide a supportive presence. He patted Jungkook's back and softly hushed him, offering words of comfort. "It's alright, Jungkook, it really is, just relax."

After some time, Jungkook's sobs began to subside. He reluctantly released his hold on Taehyung and wiped away his tears with the back of his hand.

Taehyung handed Jungkook a tissue and told him to wipe his tears.

Jungkook nodded, his voice still shaky.

Jungkook's trembling began to subside as Taehyung offered comforting words and made sure he took his medicine. Then Taehyung led Jungkook to his room and made him lay down on the bed.

Soon Taehyung started massaging Jungkook's head,

The gentle massage on Jungkook's head added to the soothing sensation. Jungkook's eyelids grew heavy,

As Taehyung continued to massage his head, Jungkook mumbled, "I can't sleep."

Taehyung smiled softly and whispered, "It's alright. I'll stay with you."

Taehyung's fingers never stopped their gentle movement on Jungkook's head.

Jungkook sighed, his body relaxing under Taehyung's care. "S-st...ay."

Taehyung nodded, "I'm right here with you."

Then, Taehyung suggested, "Would you like to hear a story?"

Jungkook gave a small nod, his eyes closed as he settled into a more comfortable position. His mind craved a distraction, a temporary escape from the turmoil of his thoughts.

Taehyung began to weave a tale, his voice soothing and gentle as he spoke. "Once, there was a boy who had a big and ugly scar on his face. People around him were cruel, even his own parents. Because of this, he started wearing a mask to hide his scar from the world."

The story unfolded like a comforting lullaby, each word a stroke of reassurance. Jungkook's breathing grew calmer, and the tense lines on his face softened. Taehyung continued with great care, making sure every word wrapped around Jungkook like a protective cocoon.

"But in high school," Taehyung narrated, "a few boys forcefully took his mask off and made fun of him. They bullied him, yet his parents did nothing to protect him. They chose to hate the boy instead of supporting him."

Jungkook was caught in the tale, the emotions from the story blending with his own turmoil.

"Since that day," Taehyung's voice grew even softer, "the boy never took his mask off again. He decided to shield himself from the cruelty of the world. He knew the world was very cruel, very, very cruel. It could ruin you, destroy you. But at the end, it would act like your friend, pretending to be kind. That's why the boy chose to ignore everyone."

By the time Taehyung had finished the story, Jungkook's breathing had steadied, and he was finally at peace, asleep. Taehyung looked at him with affection and whispered, "Is my story that boring?"

As Jungkook slept, Taehyung remained by his side, continuing to stroke his head gently. The weight of the evening's emotions still lingered, but for now, they were both at rest, finding solace in each other's presence.

The next day......

The final day of the shoot arrived, and Jungkook was feeling much better. As he entered the set, a sense of anticipation and excitement hung in the air. Everyone was eager to wrap up the project successfully.

Throughout the day, Jungkook's professionalism shone. He was meticulous in his poses and expressions, embodying the character perfectly.

His movements were fluid, and his facial expressions conveyed a myriad of emotions. The stylists and makeup artists adorned him with jewels, gems, and flowers, enhancing his ethereal beauty.

As the final shot was taken, the entire crew erupted in applause. The director commended Jungkook for his dedication and hard work, and the other crew members echoed their praise.

Jungkook, in return, thanked everyone. He hugged a few crew members, genuinely grateful for their support and camaraderie. They had helped him navigate through a challenging shoot, and he wanted to express his appreciation.

Ji-Hyun, approached him, He opened his arms and hugged Jungkook tightly, saying, "You did an incredible job, Jungkook."

Jungkook reciprocated the hug, smiling warmly at Ji-Hyun. Little did he know that there was a pair of eyes watching them and wanted to tear ji-hyun apart the moment he hugged Jungkook.
