TWENTY FIVE
Jungkook gently grooms Jk's back, getting rid of all the dirt that has gotten stuck in the horse's fur.
They have a break from work now because Jimin is out getting some new goods for the fields.
It's been a few days since their movie night.
Namjoon chose to drop the bomb after he spoke with Jimin. Of course, it shocked everyone, but it also explained a lot of things. Jungkook's happy he and Jimin finally got to speak together.
Not to mention how it's easy to see on Taehyung that it was a huge relief for him too.
He kind of got what he wanted so that's good.
"He'll be here in a minute," Taehyung says as he enters the stall, placing himself behind Jungkook with his arms wrapped around him.
He rests his chin on Jungkook's shoulder as he watches the younger move the brush over the horse's back.
"Tired?" Jungkook asks with an amused smile.
"No, pent up," Taehyung replies.
"You're so horny," the younger giggles as let's Taehyung rub his face into his neck. He's so adorable.
They stand like that for a while swaying back and forth and exchanging a few kisses here and there.
Soon, they hear the sound of a truck approaching, but then they frown when it's not just one car.
The gravel underneath the tires indicate that there are definetly more than one vehicle.
With a frown Taehyung let's go of Jungkook and together, they head outside.
The sight that meets them just confuses Taehyung but it shocks something deeply in Jungkook.
The eldest sees Jimin not far ahead. He's looking weirdly at the cars parked behind him and they all watch as a handsome, elder man steps out on the farm.
He's wearing sunglasses, his hair is brushed back nicely and the suit on his body fits him almost too well.
He's definetly not from around here.
Taehyung is just about to open his mouth and utter a word before Jungkook speaks in a hesitant voice.
"Dad?"
It's like a light pops up in Taehyung's head. He can now clearly see the similarities between Jungkook and the man that's apparently his father.
"What are you doing here?" Jungkook adds. He let's him father walk over and pull him into a tight hug.
"My son! I missed you so much," he says with a deep chuckle that oozes with kindness and happiness. Not the way Taehyung really pictured Jungkook's father. He expected him to be more... diva like.
"I missed you too... but why-"
"I'm here to take you home," he drops it just like that. Jungkook feels his eyes widen at he stares at the man. He gets to leave? He gets to go home?
"But dad, I haven't been here for a year, I haven't finished my punishment-"
"It doesn't matter my boy, I wanted to test you and I have done that now. I missed you too much, so I thought I might as well bring you home," he smiles warmly.
Jungkook just stares at him for a while, feeling his heart go unnaturally fast and he gulps loudly.
"Serously?"
"Yes! Isn't it great?" the elder man hugs him again and Jungkook instantly feels home from the scent of his father's jacket.
He hesitates but let's his hand wrap around the other and hug him back.
"Yes... yes it is," he says quietly. They pull back and share a smile.
He will go home! After all this time. He didn't believe he would actually get to leave this place.
This farm.
These people...
...Taehyung...
He turns around and immediately gets eye contact with the said male whose face is painted with confusion. There's also slight fright hidden there.
"When do we go home?" Jungkook whispers out to his dad, never breaking eye contact with Taehyung.
"We have to leave now, the plane will depart soon," his dad clarifies and Jungkook can feel his stomach tighten.
Is he really ready to leave?
"Can I say goodbye, quickly?" he asks so only his father can hear it. The elder male nods and let's Jungkook walk over to the brunette not far from them.
He grabs his arm and drags him behind the house so they can talk alone.
"So, how are you going to tell him?" Taehyung asks with big eyes.
"Tell him what?" Jungkook asks calmly even though his heartbeat is still increasing.
"That you're staying here of course," Taehyung chuckles as a matter-of-factly. He grins and waits for Jungkook to start explaining some sort of plan or something. But he younger goes quiet.
Taehyung tilts his head slightly in confusion, he watches Jungkook lower his gaze and bite his lip.
"You are... staying right?" he then slowly adds. The grin from before was long gone and now there was only pain and fear written over his face.
He grabs Jungkook's shoulders and gives him a small shake.
"Right?"
Jungkook feels like crying. Fuck, he's torn in two directions and he honestly doesn't know how to get any words out of his mouth right now. It happened so suddenly, causing his heart to get pulled in two places.
He feels the grip on his arms tighten painfully.
"We-we can call all the time and maybe even visit on holidays-" Jungkook begins but halts when Taehyung let's his hands fall.
"You're kidding me right?"
"What do you mean Tae? I have to go home, what are you indicating-"
"I thought you liked it here," Taehyung's voice is suddenly so small and fragile that Jungkook almost can't say anything in return. But he has to... he can't run away.
"Tae listen, you can come with me! You can try living in the city, get some new work and we could live together!" Jungkook tries to cheer him up, wanting to show his home to Taehyung too.
"I thought you liked it here?" Taehyung mumbles.
"I do! I do Tae... but I- I don't belong here," Jungkook sighs.
"Of course you do, you belong wherever you want to belong," Taehyung spits, this time a little harder than probably intended.
"No Tae. I have a life back there I need to take care of, I can't just take a holiday from that? And I mean, I finally have the opportunity to go home-"
"Why not just leave it behind? Aren't you happy here?" Taehyung presses on.
"No Tae! I won't be happy here, because this is not my home!" Jungkook hisses in a higher tone. Taehyung is getting annoying, why isn't he understanding anything?
"Oh really? So where your love is isn't your home?" Taehyung throws out.
"Jesus Christ Taehyung! I'm giving you the opportunity to come to Seoul, such a big and rich city. I'll buy you a house trible the size of this and we will be so rich that you won't have to ever work anymore? How can you pick this," he point at the rather old house beside them," contra that?"
Taehyung almost growls at him for dissing his home just like that.
"I told you that being a farmer was my dream, this is what I want to do!" Taehyung yells back.
"Well that just shows that all you fucking farmer boys do have a few screws loose! I'm giving you everyone's dream and you're denying it??"
"It's not everyone's dream to be like you Jungkook! Stop being so freaking selfish for once!"
"Well fuck you then!" Jungkook practically screams into then other's face. He was willing to give him so much, yet that thick headed brunette is still being stubborn and stupid.
Fine then, he can stay in this freaking pile of dust if that's what he wants.
"Fuck you too then!" Taehyung yells back as Jungkook starts stomping his way back around the house.
"I fucking hope you go bankrupt!" Jungkook yells.
"And I hope you get freaking STD from all the discussing old men who are going to fuck you and pay you for it!"
"You were one of them!"
Taehyung doesn't get to throw anything back before Jungkook has thrown himself into the back of his father's car, instructed him to drive away from this hell-hole immediately.
Taehyung scoofs as he watches the cars turn to leave the place. His eyes follow the car Jungkook is in and his heart starts arching painfully.
His face that was pulled into anger falls and only sadness can be seen now.
He doesn't even realize the tears that stream down his cheeks before he feels Jimin's hands helplessly try to wipe them off.
Never in his entire life had he felt so lonely and naive.
