Third Person's P.O.V :-

"Don't be nervous, Taehyung" Hoseok spoke out from the passenger seat of the car. Taehyung, who was on the backseat and had been shaking his feet uncontrollably on the car's floor, suddenly looked up with a startled expression only to see Hoseok looking back at him with a small and understanding smile.

"It'll be fine, today's just the first hearing, all you need to do is follow the directions of the lawyer and it'll be over in a flash" He reassured the shaken up house guest further.

Precisely. The fact that it'll be over in a flash was what scaring Taehyung. To think that the bond he had held onto for so long would just disappear in the matter of a few hours. He was beyond words to explain how he was feeling inside.

Primarily, it was a prolonging sense of doom looming over his shoulders.

He remembered the talk he had with Dr. Kim Namjoon the previous day. Taehyung had still quite been unable to forgive himself but he wished to apologize, sincerely. Not like those feeble ones he did a while ago.

Perhaps, if he was able to show his true thoughts to Jimin and tell him just how guilty he was feeling, he would finally receive the closure his conscience was seeking.

Taehyung tried his best to calm down and muster up a small smile,"Thank you" He said and tried to come across as genuine, but somewhere, his eyes betrayed him.

Hoseok's smiled dimmed down a bit after seeing Taehyung's face but nonetheless he gave a slight nod and turned back to sit properly on his seat.

Yoongi, who was driving the car all this time, took a slight glance at Taehyung's sad face looking outside the car window and focused back on the road, not knowing what to say to their house guest who's leaving today.

"We've got a bit of time on our hands" Yoongi spoke out suddenly, despite deciding that he wanted to say nothing and keep quiet, he ended up speaking out.

The other two participants in the car fixed their gazes on him out of curiosity.

"We do?" Hoseok asked with knitted brows, vaguely wondering what his boyfriend was up to now.

Yoongi nodded,"Yeah, the actual court proceeding is in the afternoon anyway, even if we get there on time we'll just have to wait an hour or so until the lawyer arrives and they are always fashionably late" He said with ease and glanced up in the rare view mirror to look at Taehyung who was looking back at him in concern.

"So we've got an hour in our hands, thanks to Hobi, we set out early" Yoongi mused out and looked back on the road again,"Say, Taehyung" He called out, getting the house guest's full attention.

"Do you wanna go check out the cafe you'll be doing part time in, right now?" Yoongi asked, his cheeks turning a bit red as he asked the direct question.

It was clear that he saw Taehyung tense and was clearly asking him to go to the cafe to take his mind off of the situation for a brief moment. The fact that he asked that question to Taehyung while blushing and looking away, unable to hold eye contact with the latter due to his shy nature was another thing that Hoseok, personally, found adorable in his boyfriend.

Yoongi was a tsundere through and through.

Hoseok grinned from the passenger seat,"Oh Yoongi! Way to go!" He laughed and gave Yoongi's bicep two appreciative pats and looked back at Taehyung for his answer.

Taehyung didn't know what was happening, it might just be that Hoseok's happiness was rubbing off on him but he found himself smiling genuinely,"I..I would love to" He whispered looking at Hoseok and lastly looked at Yoongi, who was now glancing at him through the rare view mirror and their eyes met briefly before Yoongi nodded and focused back on the road again.
____________________________

The three of them arrived at the cafe and looked around the pleasantly decorated space. The warm aroma of coffee filled the room. It instantly hit the arriving individual with a sense of nostalgia right after stepping in.

"What do you think? Do you like this place?" Hoseok asked as he turned towards Taehyung and smiled.

Taehyung who was still busy looking around the warm toned cafe, turned to Hoseok when he heard his name being called and gave a small genuine smile,"It's a beautiful place, I love it here" He whispered, he was overcome with gratefulness towards Hoseok for giving him the opportunity to start working. He didn't know what waves of turmoil he'd be facing right now if he had to worry about unemployment on top of nursing his everlasting guilt.

"Making coffee, wanna give it a try?" Yoongi suddenly asked out, gaining Taehyung's attention,"That will be your job if you're gonna be working here, it's better to learn the ropes early on, Jin Hyung has a whole coffee machine in his house, it'll be easy for you to practice in your down time if you know what you need to do" He uttered and gestured towards the empty reception.

Taehyung stared at Yoongi in wonder,"Is that doable? They wouldn't be offended?" He asked out in a worried tone. He couldn't stop worrying about the bad impression that might fall over the cafe owner. The owner might be expecting Taehyung to already know what to do.

"Believe me when I tell that not one person from the Jung family has a single mean bone in their bodies, all of them are wingless angels" Yoongi provided in a smug tone and turned his gaze towards Hoseok,"And I pride myself over bagging the most gorgeous one" He winked as he finished his sentence and watched in amusement how Hoseok giggled and ran into his arms to laugh over his shoulder while leaning into him.

Yoongi hit the calling bell over the counter and at once a boy stepped out from within the inner kitchen.

"I'm sorry we're opening a week later- oh?! Hobi hyung?! Yoongi hyung?!" The boy called out in surprise and walked towards the reception in awe,"What a pleasant surprise! I was not expecting you guys!" He cheered and grinned while looking at them.

"Oh my, Hyojin! You've grown up so much since the last time I saw you!" Hoseok called out with a smile as he separated from his boyfriend to greet his cousin.

"Hyung you just saw me two months ago at Noona's wedding, how can you say that, aish, you're too much sometimes!" Hyojin blushed and playfully pushed Hoseok back,"So? How come you came here a week before the opening?" He asked as his gaze flickered between Hoseok and Yoongi.

"Actually we have good news for you and bad news for you" Yoongi began as he leaned over the reception counter and clasped his fingers together.

Hyojin grew curious by that gesture and leaned in closer to pay Yoongi his full attention,"What are those, hyung?" He asked while posing knitted brows.

"Well we brought you a part timer! Remember you told me you were looking for one?" Hoseok cheered from the side, making Hyojin look at his way with wide eyes.

"No way! Really?!" He asked with a big smile blooming on his lips,"Oh my gosh, guys! You are the best!" He cheered but suddenly his happiness dulled down,"But wait, what's the bad news?" He asked in a smaller voice while he gulped a little.

"Bad news is he doesn't know how to make coffee, you'll have to teach him" Yoongi said from beside Hyojin.

Hyojin stared at Yoongi,"You call that bad news? I say that's better! Now I can teach the way I want the coffee to be served in my cafe!" He cheered enthusiastically and looked at Hoseok and Yoongi,"Thank you guys so much for finding me a part timer! I love you, guys!" He exclaimed in utter bliss.

Hoseok and Yoongi looked at each other and grinned.

"Well, Hyojin, you're lucky because we brought the part timer with us!" Yoongi said and moved away to gesture towards Taehyung who was still standing in his spot from before.

Taehyung shifted in his spot a little bit and bowed a little to greet his future employer.

Hyojin blushed when he saw Taehyung,"I only asked for a part timer, you guys didn't have to find me a super model" He gasped out softly while having his eyes strained on Taehyung who was still standing in the cafe's corner awkwardly.

"If he starts working here my cafe will always be booming with customers simply because of his visuals, by the way, though unlikely but is he single, perhaps?" He asked Hoseok with blushing cheeks.

Hoseok laughed at the question and shook his head at his adorable cousin,"No, he has a psycho lover, so I suggest you keep your thoughts and hands to yourself" Hoseok advice and ruffled Hyojin's hair.

Hyojin pouted,"Aw man! Why do good looking guys always go for the bad boys?" He sulked a little before he shook it off and walked around the counter to step into the cafe.

"Hey, I'm Hyojin, I'm the owner of this cafe, I heard you're interested in doing part-time here? Do you wanna learn how to make latte art? It won't take long I promise!" He asked eagerly, greedy to get to know the beautiful man in front of him.

"Oh, um, yes, I'm Taehyung, and I-I would love to..!" Taehyung whispered nervously, all of this was very new to him.

"Excellent! Come with me!" Hyojin beckoned in and walked towards the coffee machine while Taehyung cautiously followed, being mindful of not crashing into anything.

Yoongi and Hoseok grinned at the scene in front of them and looked at each other.

"We are good people, aren't we?" Yoongi asked out in a teasing manner.

Hoseok grinned and leaned closer to leave a kiss on Yoongi's cheek,"We're the best people~" He whispered and leaned closer to his boyfriend.

"Oooh, I like where this is heading" Yoongi smirked and wrapped his arm around Hoseok's waist.

"Hey! I saw that! No PDA in my cafe!" Hyojin yelled from inside the inner kitchen.

Yoongi clicked his tongue in annoyance,"Shut up, Hyojin, mind your own business!" He grunted and Hoseok just laughed at his behavior before kissing the top of Yoongi's head lovingly.
___________________________________________

"Jimin" Jin called out as he closed the door of his car after carefully putting Sujin in her toddler seat in the backseat and looked at Jimin who was about to sit down on the passenger seat.

Jimin heard his name being called and looked over at Jin,"Yes, hyung?" He answered as he stared back at the head of the public relations department of his office.

"You are alright, right? Not feeling nauseous or anything? I'd hate it if you puked in my car" Jin tried to be a bit brazen, masking his concern for Jimin's health with the excuse of his car's cleanliness.

Jimin was caught off guard by Jin's words and let out a gust of contained air as he chuckled slightly,"I'm perfectly fine, don't worry about it and I won't puke" He reassured with a smile and ducked his head low to get in the car.

Jin looked on as Jimin shut the car door shut behind himself and rounded the car to get to the driver's seat. They had a court to reach anyway.

Soon the car purred to life as it backed up a bit and glided out of the driveway to hit the road.

"Remember to stay calm and collected, don't talk too much, let your legal representation do all of the work, answer curtly when you're asked something and just say you guys want mutual divorce in front of the judge, alright?" Jin adviced while he drove the car.

Jimin looked onto the road ahead of them in a daze and nodded slightly,"I'll do that" He whispered and looked at the rare view mirror to see Sujin sleeping in her toddler seat. A smile graced Jimin's lips.

"She looks so cute sleeping like that, hyung, you could have let me hold her for the entire ride" Jimin voiced out as he looked at the three years old child fondly.

"Sounds uncomfortable, in her seat, my princess can sleep well while maintaining a great posture, also how dare you ask me to let you hold her after you hogged her for the entire afternoon, yesterday? No, I'm a possessive father, only I get to hold my princess while she sleeps" Jin declared firmly and focused back on the road.

Jimin grinned as he heard Jin's words and shook his head in disbelief,"You're too much, sometimes, hyung" He whispered and looked out of the window on his side,"But I like it, I want to be a dad too, I wonder how long it will take to find an egg donor and a carrier" He mumbled out, pondering on the thought.

"It's a complicated process, the egg that they receive might fail to be fertilised multiple times and a suitable carrier isn't also someone who can just be available whenever, I would have said adoption was the easiest route but you said you're on a condition to continue your bloodline or whatever that means, so I'd say just be patient, it can be frustrating and very expensive but one day it'll happen" Jin replied and stopped at a red light.

Jimin heard all of the hardships that layed on his path of becoming a father and exhaled a deep breath,"I think that's better" He mumbled,"I'll try to work on myself some more in the meantime, I want to be a good father to my child, provide a loving home so it's better if the good news comes late rather than early" He admitted and looked over at Jin who was looking back at him.

"You're getting it now" Jin smiled and pushed down on the accelerator as the car moved forward,"I'll train you so that you become a great dad, be sure to come into my office during lunch times from now on" He smiled while he looked at the road.

Jimin nodded, feeling at ease a little,"Count on me to show up everyday" He whispered and leaned back on his seat again,"Can I play some music?" He asked instead.

"Sure but I only have nursery rhymes and baby songs" Jin warned offhandedly,"But play it regardless, it'll be good practice for a future father, such as yourself, get yourself familiarised" He shrugged.

Jimin laughed after hearing that and played the music anyway.

Baby Shark, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo~

The song continued as the car blazed through the highway of Seoul
_____________________________________

This was the first time Taehyung was meeting Jimin after a week. He was visibly nervous while Yoongi parked the car in a parking lot near the court.

While in the cafe, Taehyung learned how to make the most basic latte art and brew the most basic coffee, concentrating on that had taken Taehyung's mind off of things for a little bit but now that he's in front of the court again, he could feel the dreadful feeling coming back to him in waves.

"Taehyung, come on, let's go on ahead, Yoongi will catch up with us later" Hoseok called out from the passenger seat as he looked at Taehyung who tried his best to act calm.

"Yes, okay" Taehyung whispered and gulped the lump in his throat as he watched Hoseok unlocking the door and stepping outside and reluctantly turned slightly to do the same.

Yoongi who had been watching Taehyung from the rare view mirror once again exhaled a soft breath and slumped back on his drivers seat, gaining Taehyung's attention as he heard the soft 'thud'.

"Don't die out there" Yoongi said as his firm eyes met Taehyung's startled and nervous ones through the rare view mirror.

Taehyung gave a hesitant nod and unlocked the door to step out finally, the warm and humid air hit him brutally.

"Come on!" Hoseok gestured Taehyung to hurry over as he stood a few feets away from the car. Taehyung nodded and moved towards him.

Hoseok and Taehyung soon found themselves navigating through the maze-like hallways of the court building in order to find the meeting spot they had agreed upon.

"There they are!" Hoseok exclaimed in excitement as he spotted Jin and Jimin on the other side of the waiting area, leaning against the railing of the second floor court balcony and talking amongst themselves while Jin had Soojin securely tied to his chest in a toddler carrier as the child snoozed.

Taehyung felt his heart beating faster as he finally caught the sight of Jimin. The office worker looked thin and frail compared to how he looked a week ago, it made the guilt wash over Taehyung's form in full force once again. He felt his throat dry up while his brain fell into a state where it was unable to form a single coherent sentence.

Hoseok grabbed Taehyung's wrist and pushed past millions of other people who have all gathered in the waiting area, waiting for their cases to be heard by the judges and finally made it to the other side,"Jin hyung!" He called out cheerfully as he waved his hand in the air to grab the attention of the other.

Both Jin and Jimin stopped talking to each other as they heard the familiar voice and turned his heads to see Hoseok rushing towards him while dragging Taehyung behind him.

"Oh! Hobi!" Jin called out and lifted his own hand in the air as Hoseok grinned and hurried over faster.

"Sorry for being late, there was traffic on the road" Hoseok laughed angelically while hiding away the fact that they were late because they stopped by his cousin's cafe for a little bit,"Oh, by the way, Yoongi was calling you in the parking lot, he said he wanted to transfer Taehyung's luggage now as the actual hearing is still an hour away" He informed.

Jin groaned,"That motherfucker is first of all late and now he's just demanding stuff, he should have let me know last night, ugh!" He complained and handed the document file to Jimin wordlessly before taking off the toddler carrier carefully and handing it to Hoseok,"Alright, lead me to him" He said as he looked at Hoseok pointedly.

Hoseok blinked in surprise,"Huh? O-oh I'll have to lead you?" He inquired while he securely held a sleeping Soojin in his arms despite the carrier.

"What else, Hobi? Come give me company, besides it's too boring to go alone" Jin shrugged and took the document file from Hoseok's hand, handing it to Taehyung without any second thoughts,"Here, Taehyung, right? Hold this for us, we'll be back in a blink" He said and at once was dragging Hoseok away to disappear amidst the crowded waiting area once again.

Now only the soon to be divorced parties stayed behind, two pairs of eyes fixed on that one spot in the crowd where both of their supervisors and support systems had vanished.

A thick layer of suffocating silence surrounded the two of them as they tried to look everywhere except in the eyes of the other, seemingly clueless as to what to even say to the other.

It was becoming too awkward and Jimin reluctantly decided to break it.

"So..." He trailed off and glanced at Taehyung who was now looking back at him, a little startled,"First time getting divorced?" He asked the first question that came to his mind and mentally slammed his head against a wall for ending up asking the stupidest question known to man. To mask his embarrassment, Jimin decided to smile a little.

Taehyung was caught so off guard with that unexpected question that had come out of nowhere that he ended up letting out a small laugh in the form of a puff of air. His anxious eyes started to get warm and relaxed as he covered his mouth with his hand to hide the smile. He looked to the side, still unable to believe what he just heard.

"I...um, yes, it is the first time" He whispered, a small smile lingering on his lips as he looked back at Jimin, a somewhat hopeful look present in his eyes.

Jimin couldn't believe his stupid attempt at breaking the ice worked just like that. He bowed his head a little and shook it in disbelief while smiling in amusement before looking up again and reaching out his hand towards Taehyung.

"Come here" He uttered softly as he let his inviting hand hang in the air between them, leaning against the railing of the balcony Jimin waited for Taehyung to take his hand.

Taehyung looked at the hand extended out to him with grateful eyes before his own hand slowly reached up and softly touched Jimin's palm.

Jimin clasped Taehyung's hand in his own and gently tugged him forward towards him a little.

Taehyung took a few steps towards Jimin and stood right in front of him, his conflicted eyes taking in Jimin's kind face sadly,"Jimin.." He whispered with a lump in his throat.

"Shush..." Jimin hushed him by putting a finger over his lips and smiling up at him,"Come here" He whispered and cupped one side of Taehyung's face before pulling him closer into a hug.

Taehyung kept staring at Jimin with an overwhelmed face as he wordlessly obeyed Jimin's request and went closer to him.

Jimin wrapped both of his arms around Taehyung's back and pulled him closer as he rested his head on his spouse's shoulder. He inhaled deeply while having his eyes closed and sighed in relief,"I missed you a lot" He whispered sincerely.

Taehyung sensed the genuine happiness in Jimin's voice and couldn't help but frown,"Jimin, I..m-me too.." He stuttered while eyes became teary. His wrapped his own hands around Jimin's shoulder and entangled one of his hands in the back of Jimin's head, pulling him closer.

"I-I missed you so much, it felt horrible" Taehyung sniffled as he buried his face in Jimin's shoulder and shed a few drops of tears,"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I hurt you a lot, I never wanted to hurt you, what I did was unfair towards you, I regret hurting you and everybody else in the process, I'm so sorry" Taehyung sobbed as he held onto Jimin tightly

"Shush...it-it's okay, don't cry, Ta-Tae" Jimin shuttered in a groggy voice as his own eyes welled up with tears. He rubbed soothing circles on Taehyung's back while the other shook in his arms.

Taehyung kept on apologizing softly while he held Jimin close until it was nothing but soft little whimpers anymore.

Jimin didn't know how much time had passed but he didn't dare think about separating from Taehyung, he was soaking in the embrace to his heart's content after desperately yearning for it for the past week.

Jimin, who had been looking down on the floor and smiling slightly until now suddenly looked up and saw Jin, Hoseok and Yoongi at a distance. It looked like the three of them had also seen them hugging as they all nodded towards him and walked to the other side of the waiting area to grab some coffee, offering the two of them some space to sort the tension out.

Jimin gave Taehyung a tight squeeze before finally letting him go and pulling back to look at Taehyung's tear strained face with his own red one.

Jimin ended up giggling,"You're still an ugly crier" He whispered warmly as he wiped away Taehyung's tears with his shirt's sleeve and cupped his face,"Why are you crying, silly? I'm fine, we're fine, there's nothing to be sorry about" He uttered with an emotional yet happy face as his thumb caressed Taehyung's cheek,"Stop apologising" He whispered softly.

"How can I stop?" Taehyung squeaked out as new tears fell down,"I've hurt you a lot and now we're strangers, I'll have to continue living without you and you'll be forced to dance on the orders of the clan mistress, I've made you destroy your life, I'm so sorry, Jimin" He cried again.

Jimin laughed with a teary face as he once again wiped away Taehyung's tears,"Come here, Tae, stand beside me" He softly asked as he took a hold of Taehyung's wrist and brought him towards him so that now both of them stood side by side, leaning against the railing of the balcony while holding hands.

"I've already forgiven you, Tae, I realised that there was no way I could have stayed angry at you for a long time" Jimin whispered as he caressed Taehyung's knuckles,"I've known you ever since we were in diapers, I think I'm starting to understand what you meant when you said I was your family, because I think you are mine too" He whispered softly.

"I want you to know that I meant it when I said we'll always be friends, everything that happened, it doesn't have to come between our bond, in fact it has no relation to that, so be in my life for a long time, Tae" Jimin uttered and looked up to the side to see Taehyung's sad face,"Don't ever say goodbye to me" He whispered and smiled.

"I don't deserve to be in the life of someone as nice as you.." Taehyung uttered with troubled eyes.

"But I want you to be" Jimin urged on,"This one week that I spent without you, I realized it would be so hard to cut you off from my life, I can't do it, therefore, I must have you, as a friend, as family, in any form, I must have you" He said and chuckled at how silly he sounded.

"I know you now have another person that you treasure but I want you to place me first sometimes and come meet me when I say I miss you" He whispered while staring at his shoes,"Will you do that for me, Taehyung?" He asked and looked up at his childhood best friend again,"Please?" He requested softly.

Taehyung once had tears running down his face as he pressed his lips tightly together to stop them from trembling and nodded vigorously,"I-I'll drop everything and co-come running towards you if you call me" He shuttered as he sniffed.

Jimin smiled in endearment and brought Taehyung's hand that he was holding close to his lips to gently kiss it,"Thank you.." He whispered softly and looked on ahead,"I applied for surrogacy, I might have a child soon in the future, I wanted to let you know personally, since you're my dearest friend" He announced making Taehyung's eyes go wide.

"A child?" He whispered as his astonishment melted into sadness,"Is this about the condition that the clan mistress placed upon you?" He asked mournfully.

Jimin shook his head fondly,"I saw Jin hyung being happy with Sujin, his daughter, I played with her too and I realised how much joy a child brings into life, I want to be a father" He uttered and looked back at Taehyung again,"Do you think I'll be a good parent?" He asked.

Taehyung nodded instantly,"You're the kindest and most caring person, any child will be lucky to have you as their father, Jimin" He answered Jimin's query.

Jimin smiled and shook his head,"You're a sweet talker" He whispered,"Thank you for saying that, though, I think I want my child to have Uncle Taehyung in their life as well" He said and smiled at Taehyung.

Taehyung felt overwhelmed as he heard how Jimin wanted him to keep on being a part of not only his own life but his future child's life as well,"I.." He began but he felt speechless,"I-I'll be honoured to" He uttered breathlessly as he stared at Jimin and finally smiled genuinely,"It makes me the happiest to hear that" He squeaked out as he stepped closer to hug Jimin tightly.

"I'm so happy for you, Jimin, I-I really am, I wish for your happiness everyday, I never want to see you sad ev-ever again, I'm sorry I know I have no right to say all this but it's true" He whimpered while burying his face in Jimin's shoulder.

Jimin, who was stunned by Taehyung's forward gesture, slowly had a warm smile emerge on his lips as he rubbed Taehyung's back again,"I know, you don't have to convince me, Tae, I know" He whispered and hugged his childhood best friend back,"I wish for your happiness everyday as well" He uttered as felt a tear of happiness roll down his cheek.

They stood there hugging each other for a few more minutes as a blanket of warmth enveloped them.

On the other side of the waiting room, three of Jimin's office colleagues leaned on the railing of the other balcony and looked to the other side where the soon to be divorced couple stood hugging each other tightly.

"So..." Hoseok began,"Is this a friendly thing or is the divorce off now?" He asked as he looked to both of his sides where Jin and Yoongi stood.

Yoongi sighed as he took in the sight before him and dumped his empty paper cup of coffee in the dumpster after aggressively crumbling it,"Don't even ask me anymore, I can't with their dramatic asses" He hissed out and rolled his eyes.

"Does it matter if it's friendly or romantic? I mean we're third wheeling either way" Jin just shrugged from the side,"Along with the entire waiting area, all of them are glancing at them, damn, this is kinda embarrassing" He uttered and momentarily hid his face with his hand,"I'll pretend like I don't know them" He said and turned around to look into the garden underneath the balcony.

Hoseok just laughed at both of his companions and shook his head as he continued sipping on his coffee. Sujin carelessly snoozed away on Hoseok's chest as he wore the toddler carrier.

When Jimin and Taehyung separated again, their feelings were more at ease as they stared at each other. They continued chatting about the week they spent apart and tried to be as honest with the other as possible, of course with Taehyung hiding the fact from Jimin that he felt suicidal during the entire week and Jimin keeping his lifestyle at the hotel and the mental breakdown he had in front of Yoongi the previous morning a secret.

Taehyung informed Jimin about how much Dr. Kim Namjoon had helped Jungkook and even assisted him in sorting out his own feelings along with how he was starting a part time job at a cafe as a batista and Jimin congratulated him before telling Taehyung about his future plans of inheriting the title of the next clan master and freeing the Kim clan of their age old tradition of slavery.

Taehyung felt grateful to have someone as caring and helpful as Jimin in his life who always thought about the greater good before his own happiness and couldn't be more overwhelmed.

Soon Jimin got a call from Jin informing them that their hearing was about to begin in ten minutes and to make their way over to the specified court room.

Jimin and Taehyung had walked slowly as they talked to each other the entire way, trying to be as relaxed as possible.

When they reached the court room, Jin, Hoseok and Yoongi were all already there waiting for them along with the lawyers. All of them entered the court room and waited for the announcer to call their names.

Soon their names were called and Jimin stood side by side with Taehyung in front of the judge, they answered all the necessary procedural questions and pleaded for a mutual divorce.

The lawyers presented the judge with all the agreed terms and conditions as the judge went over it and nodded in acknowledgement. The judge approved the application and gave them a date for the final hearing which was after a month.

All this time Taehyung kept on feeling anxious and as soon as they made their way outside Jimin smiled at Taehyung gently and held the small of his back,"Tae, why are you shaking, this changed nothing, we're fine" He whispered tenderly,"We just can't meet up for a month now" He added sheepishly in the end.

Taehyung nodded after seeing Jimin being strong and tried his best to keep his composure.

The five of them made their way over to the parking lot where Jin led all of them to his car which now held all of Taehyung's luggage.

Jin abruptly turned to Hoseok and demanded the baby carrier back.

Hoseok gasped as he looked down and spotted Sujin sleeping while cuddling into his chest, she had been so quiet and light the entire time, Hoseok completely forgot he had been carrying a baby.

"Oh she's such an angelic child" Hoseok whispered in wonder as he gently took off the carrier and handed it back to Jin along with Sujin.

"She's my child after all" Jin claimed proudly as he went to the backseat and placed his sleeping daughter in the toddler seat again before he opened the passenger seat's door for Taehyung to get in,"We need to pick up another one from the hospital, get in" He informed and waited impatiently.

Taehyung saw the impatience and turned to Jimin who smiled back at him softly before beckoning him into a hug which Taehyung was glad to be offered.

They hugged each other tightly before separating,"See you after a month" Jimin whispered to Taehyung while smiling and Taehyung nodded.

Taehyung walked back to where Jin was waiting for him and sat down on the passenger seat while Jin rounded the car to get to the driver's seat,"I'm off, bye guys!" He yelled from inside the car as the vehicle purred to life.

Soon the car was driving off and Jimin once again watched on as it drove away with the love of his life.

Yoongi stood behind Jimin, he had seen this scene way too often for his own liking now.

Hoseok tapped on Jimin's shoulder, bringing him out of his daze,"Shall we go? I heard you don't want to go back home, you can stay with us for a few days, we have a guest room all ready for you" He uttered kindly as he ruffled Jimin's hair.

Jimin smiled back,"Thank you, hyung" He uttered and looked back at Yoongi who was staring at him in skepticism.

Hoseok sensed the tension and gave them their space to talk as he went to get the car for them.

"You're still not over him" Yoongi stated while having his arms crossed over his chest.

Jimin just simply chuckled after hearing those words. He nodded with a bittersweet smile,"Yes, I'm not, and I don't think I'll ever be" He finally admitted and stared back at Yoongi with a discerning look.
__________________________________

The first thing that Jungkook saw when Jin opened the door of the backseat to him was the toddler glancing back at him.

Jungkook looked at her like she was from outer space as she sucked on her water bottle.

"Koo?" Taehyung whispered from beside Jungkook gaining his attention,"That's Mr. Kim Seokjin's baby, be careful with her, okay?" He instructed gently while Jungkook slowly nodded and got in to sit beside the toddler seat.

Taehyung and Jin both entered the car from two sides and the car started to purr again,"And if you hurt her, I'll hurt you, so behave accordingly" Jin threatened with a friendly smile and turned back to the road.

Jungkook frowned at Jin's words and just offered his hand to the toddler whose eyes started to sparkle as she saw the handsome brother offering her a hand and quickly grabbed onto his fingers.

Jungkook didn't realise it but he ended up smiling at the gesture, he was fascinated with Sujin.

The car stopped in front of a red light as Jin finally took his attention off of the road and looked at the rare view mirror out of habit to check what Sujin was doing in the backseat only to get a heart attack.

Sujin had wiggled out of her toddler seat and currently sat on Jungkook's lap as she peeped out of the window to look at the stores on the pavement. Jungkook on the other hand was smiling down at her while he patted her back gently, keeping her from falling down.

"He-Hey!" Jin immediately spun back and protested,"That's my princess! Don't touch her!" He yelled out flusteredly.

Jungkook looked up to finally give his attention to Jin,"She made grabby hands towards me so I took her in my lap" He answered casually,"Should I put her back?" He asked, keeping in mind that Namjoon had taught him to be polite.

"Yes! What else!" Jin demanded, his possessive dad side peeping out.

Taehyung turned back to look at Jungkook in concern and asked him to put Sujin back into the toddler seat. Jungkook frowned at the unreasonable demand but decided to do as Taehyung requested.

He gently lifted Sujin up from his lap and hovered her over the seat. As soon as Sujin saw the seat she started to wiggle and cry,"No! Sujin doesn't want the seat! Sujin wanna sit with hasome opa!" She cried out loudly.

Jungkook smirked up at Jin after hearing that and placed her back on his lap again smugly, her cries and sniffles stopped immediately.

Jin stared at the scene unfolding before him in astonishment and slowly turned back in his seat to look at the road again, this time with such a hopeless expression as if he had lost everything in life.

Taehyung who had kept quiet up until now started to feel bad for Jin suddenly but he also couldn't help the chuckle that was threatening to slip out.

The signal turned green again the car drove on.
