The Forced Marriage (Taekook)
3.
Kim Namjoon - Tae's father
You’re managing the London office well. It’s time to start transitioning to Seoul.
Kim Namjoon - Tae's father
We have more meetings lined up this week.
Taehyung gave a short nod.
Kim Taehyung
I’ll handle it.
Namjoon studied him for a moment.
Kim Namjoon - Tae's father
You don’t talk much these days.
Kim Taehyung
There’s nothing to say,
Taehyung replied, voice void of emotion
Meanwhile, in a quiet, fading apartment in a less glamorous neighborhood,
Jissoo coughed violently, blood staining her tissue. Jungkook rushed to her side, panic in his eyes.
Jeon Jungkook
Eomma! You’re not okay.
Jeon Jungkook
We need to go to the hospital
Jisoo shook her head weakly.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
Kookie... no money for that again. I just need to rest.
Tears welled in Jungkook’s eyes.... few days back he got a part time job
Jeon Jungkook
I’ll take another shift. I’ll figure something out.
Jisoo slowly held his hand, squeezing it.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
No, my baby. I don’t have time left.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
I’ve been hiding it. I have stage four cancer.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
Doctors said it’s too late.
Jeon Jungkook
No... No, Eomma! Why didn’t you tell me?!
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
Because you’re still a child. I didn’t want to burden you.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
But there’s something I need to do before I go...
That night, Jissoo used her last bits of strength to make a phone call.
She dialed a number she had kept locked in her heart for years.
Kim Namjoon - Tae's father
Yoboseyo?
Namjoon’s voice came through.
Jeon Jissoo - Jungkook's mother
Namjoon-ssi... It’s me. Jissoo.
A stunned silence followed.
