Chapter four : You Cancel Plans, I Cancel Life
Monday, 2:15 PM — Kim Corporations HQ, Executive Floor
The post-lunch lull had descended. Employees typed slowly, eyelids heavy, stomachs full.
Jungkook was moving at 3x speed, like a caffeinated ferret in a suit. He had three emails to finish, a call with marketing in five minutes, and a growing pit of dread in his stomach. Why?
Because Taehyung had been suspiciously calm all day.
Because just as he refilled Taehyung’s coffee with practiced precision, the CEO leaned back in his chair
Kim Taehyung
Clear my evening schedule
Kim Taehyung
7 PM. Fancy place. Grandma’s friend owns it. Can’t skip
Jeon Jungkook
But didn't Noona told you that she was coming home tonight
Jeon Jungkook
I mean my home
Jeon Jungkook
Our shared apartment?
Kim Taehyung
She's going home?
Jeon Jungkook
Yeah she called
Jeon Jungkook
Said she missed me and want to stay over
Kim Taehyung
She didn't told me
Kim Taehyung
But Last night when I checked the guest room closet, half her stuff was missing.
Kim Taehyung
So you're saying Jieun is Unavailable
Kim Taehyung
What are you guys going to do tonight?
Jeon Jungkook
Face masks. K-dramas. Or maybe Crying about fictional men?
Kim Taehyung
Refill please
Jungkook nods softly and refilled his coffee and placed it on his desk
Kim Taehyung
You do smell like your sister
Jungkook laughed it off .
Kim Taehyung
Her shampoo always smells like men’s cologne.
Jeon Jungkook
Bold new marketing trend
Kim Taehyung
You're terrible at Lying, Jungkook
Taehyung stood up and leaned towards Jungkook
Kim Taehyung
I said you're a terrible liar
Jeon Jungkook
I’m—uh—just the assistant. Not a liar. I’m a professional. Professional… scheduler
Kim Taehyung
Then professionally explain why my wife and my assistant both have a mole under their left ear.
Jeon Jungkook
T-twin things
Then Taehyung laughed and pulled away
Kim Taehyung
I was kidding
Kim Taehyung
You're easy to tease
Taehyung sat back on his chair
Kim Taehyung
Fine... I'll let you two enjoy the night
Kim Taehyung
But tomorrow we're going to the restaurant
Kim Taehyung
No excuses tell her
He barely made it out of the office before whisper-screaming to himself in the hallway,
Jeon Jungkook
(I need a new identity. And possibly a passport.)
Jeon Jieun
Bunny you're home
Jeon Jieun
Long day at work?
Jeon Jieun
Are you really okay?
Jeon Jungkook
yeah, just tired
Jeon Jieun
Did Taehyung say anything?
Jeon Jungkook
He said he's taking his future wife for a dinner tomorrow
Jeon Jungkook
Can you go please?
Jeon Jungkook
I'm really really really tired
Jeon Jungkook
Oh hyung when did you came?
Park Jimin
What are you guys talking about?
Park Jimin
Where are you going?
Jieun glanced at Jungkook then at Jimin.
Jungkook felt awkward so be left for his room
So that Jieun and Jimin can talk things out
Jungkook came to his room and threw himself on the bed
