Third person POV

(Continuation of the last chapter)

They both might didn't have any luxurious things in their house but still they were happy, living a normal life, where Jungkook worked in a company as an employee and Taehyung was a happy housewife.

None of them ever complained about their surroundings because they had everything they wanted, a house of their own, enough clothes, and enough food to satisfy their hunger.

But above all that, they both had each other for themselves.

And to add to their happiness, they both decided to have a baby and god blessed them with a small boy 6 years ago, they both loved their son and the boy became their world now.

Both of them love their son to the moon and back, always satisfying his every need.

They both named their son as Minjae.

But we all know nothing is perfect.

Their world was perfect until;

When they got to know about the conditions of their son just 1 year back. When their son was 4 year old.

Both felt a pang in their chest seeing other children of the same age group as Minjae, laughing, giggling, babbling different words but their son was silent.

Because he can't speak....

Both Jungkook and Taehyung were left heartbroken on knowing this. They had never hurt anybody but still god punished them so brutally.

Both cried and cried in each other's embrace, trying to make each other believe that everything would be alright.

When they themselve weren't assured. A hope rose in their heart when doctors told them that their son could be healed.

But the hope shattered as soon as the doctors told them about the expenses of the operation.

They still remembered how they cried themself to sleep.

Flashback 1 year ago

They both entered their house, their 4 year old son following behind, smiling widely playing with his bunny plushie.

But his parents were exactly opposite. Their faces had an expression of sadness and cheeks stained with tears.

They both just had returned from the hospital talking to Minjae's doctors who told them their son could speak but the expenses were too much for them which shuttered their last hope too.

"Baby go to your room, I will feed you your food there, okay ?" Taehyung said softly, smiling at his son, who nodded his head before hopping toward his room.

"Koo--" Taehyung started turning around but stopped as soon as he saw his husband entering their room silently.

He sighed and made his way toward the kitchen feeding his son afterward.

He stared and stared at the sleeping figure of his son who was sleeping so soundly, so peacefully, his mouth opened, just like his dada.

A tear fell from his eyes without his noticing wiping it quickly and pecking his son's forehead softly, he made his way toward his room.

Taehyung opened the door slowly only to see Jungkook sitting at his study table, in the same clothes as before, he didn't even change his clothes.

But the sight made his heart break when saw his husband wiping his tears harshly, writing something in his notepad, more like calculating.

Taehyung walked toward him, placing his hand softly at Jungkook's shoulder, who didn't even turn around, but a sob left his mouth.

"Ta--tae look, I-I calculated everything but still we can't provide with the whole amount. I-i am useless tae, ca-can't even provide a better life to my son !!" Jungkook choked at his words, shaking his head, still wiping his tears harshly trying to calculate the digits.

Taehyung shook his head, he tried to speak but his husband didn't let him.

"Don't worry tae, I will arrange the money from anywhere, ye-yes I will!" Jungkook uttered standing up from his chair, he opened the closest hurriedly, taking out a box.

Taehyung tried, he tried to speak, he tried to comfort his husband but the sight in front of him made him cry.

"Koo stop.." His voice came as whispered, which didn't have any effect on his husband who was busy counting the money spilled on his table.

Taehyung covered his mouth to stop his sobs, taking a deep breath he moved toward his husband, cupping his face in his hands who was still in daze.

"Koo-"

"Tae, don't worry I-I will work harder, I-I will arrange the money okay i-i will !!" Jungkook stuttered, his tears streaming down his face, moving his face here and there.

Taehyung trying to calm him down.

"Koo, listen--"

"I-I will arrange the money..."

"Koo--"

"I-I will give best li-life to Min-Minjae.."

"Koo, listen to m--"

"I will sell myself to arrange the---"

"Jungkook!" That was when Taehyung yelled at the top of his lungs, breaking Jungkook out of his trance who popped down on the chair breaking down in the loud sobs.

Taehyung was no different, both crying at their own misery.

"Pl-please koo, stop.." Taehyung cried out, hugging his husband tightly who buried his face in his waist, his shoulder shaking from crying.

"I-I am sorry, I-I can't..." the other sobbed.

"Look, look at me..." Taehyung made Jungkook look at him, cupping his face with both of his hands.

His tears stained cheeks, his red eyes and nose, his sad eyes, were making taehyung's heart stabbed.

"It is not your fault koo wh-why are you taking so much burden, we both will work hard, we will fight with this together koo."

"So-so what if Minjae can't speak, we will love him from everything koo, tell me, will your love get less after knowing he can't speak." taehyung asked, his tears flowing, his husband hurriedly shook his head.

"N--no never!"

"Then why koo ? Doctors said he can speak, we will work, maybe in near future he can, and if he can't th-then we will never let him feel down, we will love him koo, he is our son, w-we will provide him with the best we can!"

Taehyung explained, at which Jungkook could only cry and cry.

"We will, Tae! We will support him in ev-everything." Jungkook uttered, his voice was still breaking, his tears were still streaming down his face but still he felt calmed.

Taehyung smiled softly at him with tears flowing, he pecked jungkook's forehead lightly who closed his eyes at the touch.

That was when they felt, everything calmed down, when their tears stopped flowing.

They heard the sound of the door opening, turning their head toward the door, only to see Minjae standing there, his big doe eyes looking at them so innocently.

"Why are you not sleeping, sweet ?" Jungkook asked softly, trying to control his tears and voice to break, gesturing to the kid to come to him.

"Want to sleep here ?" Taehyung uttered at which the boy nodded really softly, but his eyes were still filled with hesitation.

They both knew that Minjae must be just 4 year old, but he was much more understanding than any other kid of his age. 

His capability of understanding things quickly was speechless, the bond that he shared with his parents made him understand their feelings much better.

Jungkook stood up from the chair and started picking the money from the table, controlling his new tears.

Taehyung was setting up the bed, they had to behave normal in front of their kid.

That was when Jungkook felt a tug on his pants, looking down to see Minjae fisting his pants in his small hands.

He frowned and bent down.

"Wh-what happened ?" He asked slowly, and now Taehyung was also looking at them.

But what Minjae did next made both of them burst out in tears.

There he was, stretching his hands toward his father, looking down.

His small palms were covered with a 1 dollar note.

Which the poor kid had saved, when taehyung told him about the importance of saving money.

Taehyung bite his lips harshly, covering his mouth with his palms, trying to stop his sobs.

And Jungkook he cried out, looking down, crying loudly, his shoulder shaking because of how hard he was crying.

He hugged the kid tightly, pecking his face again and again which made the kid giggled.

The kid didn't know what he had done, the kid didn't know how this small action affected his parents.

Taehyung smiled through his tears seeing both father and son duo.

Joining them hugging both of them tightly. All three sitting on the floor, Minjae becoming sandwiched between his parents.

Taehyung and Jungkook's eyes met, both smiled to each other softly, eyes glistening with tears.

They both laid Minjae on the bed, Jungkook picked that note kissing it softly, placing it in a box.

The most precious thing he could ever have.

Jungkook headed toward the shower, and Taehyung laid beside Minjae, his arm over him.

When the raven haired male came back from the shower, he smiled to himself, seeing the most precious one in his life sleeping so peacefully.

He also laid beside them, hugging both of them tightly, securingly.

Only one thing in his mind, he would protect both of them. He would provide every best thing he could to them. He would adore them, love them, with those thoughts he fell asleep.

With the hope that;

From tomorrow morning there will be a new beginning.
