Chapter 3 ✓
~I found heaven in your eyes, now all that's left are just lies~
•••
Awkwardness.
That's what Jungkook feels at the moment. Sitting in Taehyung's car (a damn stranger for God sake!), while the older's one little boy keeps staring at him, it's not the best situation. The curly-haired boy begins to regret that he agreed to be led to work by him. If he had been took a taxi, he wouldn't be so embarrassed now. Why is he so embarrassed?
Maybe because Yoonhyo( the boy which Jungkook saved) doesn't move his glance. And one of the most bad feeling for the curly hair boy, is when someone keep staring at him. Doesn't matter what's his or her age. It's still awful.
But the younger one has to admit. The little boy it's really cute. He will be as handsome as his father, Jungkook can bet.
"You know, at first I thought you are an angel." the little boy beside of Jungkook says, and the other one just smiles, while Taehyung looks subtle at both of them in rearview mirror.
"You could met some real angels if Jungkook wasn't there." Taehyung's deep voice makes Jungkook to move his glance on the window. "What was in your mind, Yoonhyo? I told you many times, to wait for me! Why are you more an more disobedient with every day that pass?" the older one raise a little his tone, and in Jungkook's surprise, Yoonhyoo just rolls his eyes.
'A sassy one' Jungkook tells himself, trying to not smile at the little one's cuteness.
"Well, it's your fault! You was the one who punished me a week! Just for a stupid vase." Yoonhyo revolts cutely, and Jungkook looks at him in a serious glance.
"Little one, don't talk with you dad like this." Jungkook intervenes before Taehyung to has a chance to reply. "You know, your father must to shruggle a lot to raise you as beautiful as he can. You have to listen to him, he knows what's the best for you. You understand me, little guy?" he asks after and Taehyung glance again in the mirror, this time looking more intently at Jungkook.
The pale yet beautiful boy smiles at his son, while the older one doesn't understand why he feels the need to smile too. It's just... Jungkook's smile is really contagious.
Yoonhyo nods with a small smile, then starts to touch Jungkook's hair, while the curvy haired-boy giggles. The awkward air it's already gone, and he is really enjoying this moment. He asks himself how this could be, if Yoonhyoo was his little brother, or maybe... his son. Maybe his life wouldn't be as lonely as now.
"If I will be obedient, and I will listen my dad, you will come in visit? Or I can go to see you! Can I?" the little boy asks out of blue Jungkook, and the other one looks at him confused.
"Why?" Jungkook asks at his turn, and Taehyung stops the car, in front of the younger one's destination (the curvy haired-boy explained to him just one time, and he already knew at which restaurant is Jungkook working).
"Because I like you. I want you as my friend, can you please be my friend?" Yoonhyo asks cutely, and Taehyung glance at his son's behavior.
Jungkook giggles and nods, then he opens the door.
"If you will listen to your father, for sure!" the curvy haired-boy answers and Yoonhyoo claps his hands happy." You have to wait from now on your father when you will finish your classes, okay?" he asks after and Taehyung just smiles - he can not understand how a stranger can be so kind.
"I promise!" the little boy exclaims cutely and Jungkook giggles again, then turn his attention to Taehyung.
"I have to go now. Take care of your son, and maybe we will see each other again." the younger one tells, and the older one just nods.
"I still have no idea how I could thank you for everything you've done, but I promise I'll make up for it soon. " he reply at his turn, and Jungkook just smiles, then shuts the door, leaving.
The car starts immediately, and then Jungkook's smile disappears. What the hell will he going to do now? How can he face his boss? If ... if he's fired because of that? No ... that's not possible. He can not be fired. He can't allow that.
"It's okay, everything will be fine. He can't fire you, he needs employees." he whispers to himself, while his feet are directed towards the entrance of the restaurant.
He swallows hard when he enters the restaurant (on the main entrance, not the employees') and when he sees Hoseok, he hurriedly approaches him. His friend is busy reading the orders at the counter, while other colleagues share the food requested by customers.
"Please tell me he is not mad as fuck." Jungkook whispers to his friend, then Hoseok looks at him intently, somehow worried.
"Where you was? Why didn't you answer my phone? I was worried, you idiot! " the other one says and the younger one, just closes his eyes in frustration, then enters after the counter, close to his friend.
"I was at the hospital." Jungkook honestly answers, and Hoseok stop reading the orders a few moments.
"Did your mom-"
"It is not about her this time." the younger one intervenes, then looks at his friend. "A little boy was about to be hit by the car, so I jumped in front of him and caught him. We had to go to the hospital after that, nothing more. " he explains looking subtle at the orders.
"He is okay now? What about you? Are you fine?" the other one starts to panic, and a few customers looks at them.
"I'm a fine, you don't have to worry. And the boy is perfectly healthy. " he answers and then takes another deep breath. "Where is the boss?" he asks after, and Hoseok points with the look, on the back of counter.
"In the kitchen, but be careful, he seemed kinda angry." his friend tells him, and Jungkook just nods, feeling his heart like an ant.
He enters in the kitchen, and he the pungent smell of various dishes hits him instantly. The chef works as if his life depends on it, while a few employees help him. When he notices his boss, he feels like he is losing the last piece of courage he had before. But he must to talk with him. If he pretends that he was here all day, or that he wasn't absent from work, everything would be even worse. His boss could be even more angry.
"Ăăm... sir, I... I need to talk with you." he draws his attention, and the tall man looks at him, and approves, then signals to Jungkook to follow him.
They both go out easily to the employees door, and when the older man looks at him straight in the eyes, Jungkook knows that nothing good will follow.
"You are fired." these three words make Jungkook's stomach tighten painfully, and then he realizes what he just heard- his greatest fear became reality.
Not, this can not be true. He can not get fired. His mom-
"Sir, please, I... I really need this job, I-"
"I tried to be more understanding with you, because I know the situation with your mother. But try to understand at your turn too, that I'm running a business here, Jungkook. You can't come to work when you feel like it, or leave when something else intervenes. I need employees, not visitors." the tall man cuts his reply, and then the younger boy falls to his knees in front of the boss (or his ex boss), trying to beg him, for another chance- he really need this job.
"Please, I swear, this will never happen again! I will be here exactly after university, until midnight. Just please... please don't fire me." his despair and the fact that he doesn't have much time until he will cry, makes the taller man frustrated.
He knows very well that it must be very difficult for Jungkook, so he often allowed him to leave faster. But he needs serious employees. He can't tell why he has a soft spot for the younger one.
He rolls his eyes, then looks at the other one.
"One last chance, and for the next mistake you will do, you will be fired immediately, without any other words. " he says and then leaves, and the other one only drowns his tears that were about to fall.
He then stand up. He needs to be much more careful from now on. He can no longer allow such a thing to happen. If he had been lost his job today, what the hell would have been happen? Without this job, he has only one more, where he get paid a very low price (home delivery of pizza) and he goes there only on weekends. And he needs as much money as possible. Because his mother's hospital appliances are extremely expensive.
"I need to be more careful." he says afterwards, then tries to smile, not wanting to give others the impression that something happened.

"Yoonhyo, come and eat!" Taehyung screams from the kitchen, then hears footsteps behind him and realizes that his son has already arrived.
"Here I am, dad. " the little one answers and sits down on the chair, and the older one smiles a little.
"Did you washed your hands?" the man then asks and the little one nods.
"Of course! I am already a big boy dad, I know what I have to do." the cute boy revolts, then his father puts a plate with food in front of him.
"Eat up, tiger." the man says and takes a sit on the chair next to him, then looks at his phone.
He inhales frustrated when he sees another message from his secretary, but at the same time his best friend, Park Jimin. They have another meeting scheduled for tomorrow morning, and his brother, Kim Namjoon will be there too. Even if they had another meeting today, there are always some things to discuss at the company. Yes, maybe Taehyung is the CEO, but that only makes him have more responsibilities. Far too many.
"Can we go to see Jungkook tomorrow, please? " he hears his boy's voice and he looks up from the phone.
Yoonhyo has already finished an half of the spaghetti that Taehyung prepared( he is already used to eat very-very fast) and now he is watching his father intently, with his hands clasped. The older one smiles at his son.
"Why do you want to see him?" he asks at his turn, and the little one just shrugs.
"He is my angel. He saved me, and is really cute. I want him as my friend." Yoonhyo reply in a serious tone, while his father just nods, absent-minded.
Yeah, Jungkook really saved him. If it weren't for him at the right time ... Taehyung can not even imagine what could have been happen. A tragedy. A big tragedy. Jungkook was indeed a true angel. He saved Yoonhyo, but also Taehyung. Because he would have been destroyed if something had happened to his son. And what really surprised the man is that he didn't even want a reward for his deed. There are still people with a heart of gold, even if they are very hard to find. And Jungkook is one of them.
"We can go, but you have to wait for me this time, ok? To not go by yourself again, understand?" he asks his son, and the cutie pie just nods with a big smile.
"I promise!" he exclaims then jumps from the chair, going to his room, not caring to finish all of this food.
Taehyung just takes a deep breath, trying to ignore the annoying headache. Today's meeting and what happened with Yoonhyoo, made him worry a little more than usual. But he is relieved that everything is fine. Thanks to that stranger. Everything is fine thanks to Jungkook. Even though he refused the reward that Taehyung wanted to give him, the eldest simply cannot forget what he did for his son. He has to help him somehow at his turn. Because a good deed should paid, even if only in silence.
And Taehyung clearly wants to thanks Jungkook more then with just some simple words.
