Chapter 4
~Y/N POV~
It was a little hard to wake Jihyun up at first but as soon as I mention that Hobi was here he forced himself up and out of bed on his own. He wanted to show him he was a big boy but when he made it to the living room door he stopped. The shy personality came through and he hide to the side of the door, peaking through.
I peaked around the door with him too, watching the three men engage in some sort of serious conversation, that was until I decided to break it by fully standing in the doorway and fake coughing. They all immediately pulled away from each other and try to attempt like everything was okay.
"Guys, this is Jihyun but he's a little shy."
I pointed to the side where Jihyun stood but he didn't move, he was frozen like a deer in head lights. I smiled down at him and picked him up, thinking he would feel better in my arms meeting these strange men for the first time. Jihyun stuck himself to me like glue, grabbing me for dear life and hiding his face into my shoulder.
"Aw! He's so cute!" Hobi
Hobi walked closer to us and patted the boy on the back, trying to see his face but Jihyun kept moving his face away from Hobi's sight.
"Jihyun are you going to say hello?"
Jihyun mumbled a little hello into my shoulder still hiding his face from Hobi.
"Jihyun it's good to finally meet you. I'm Hobi. You're mommy has told me a lot of stories about you." Hobi
I did to that. Yesterday in our little catch up with Jennie all I could talk about was my pride and joy. Hobi probably knew him already with the amount of times I spoke about him. Why wouldn't I want to talk about my son?
Slowly but surely Jihyun turned his head to face Hobi and smiled at him.
"Hobi?" Jihyun
He turned on his tiny baby voice to speak, he shyness still evident in his voice. Hobi nodded rapidly and held his hands out to him, probably in hopes for the boy to go to him. I was hoping he would too. If Hobi sticks to his word to stay around then hopefully he can be a father figure in Jihyun's life
My son started shifting more in my arms to turn his body to face Hobi completely. When Jihyun lifted his head to show him his smile, Hobi's eyes grew but tried to cover it with a smile. If I didn't know him as well as I do, I wouldn't of noticed but I've known him since I was at least Jihyun's age so I defiantly saw it. Unexpectedly Jihyun reached out to him and Hobi took his into his arms from me.
I sighed in relief that Jihyun accepted Hobi like that, he must of felt comfortable with him to do that.
"Jihyun there's two other I would like you to meet remember? I went to school with them."
This time Jihyun glued himself to Hobi, with his little arms around Hobi like a little monkey grasping onto the parent. Hobi didn't mind though he just held him in his arms and walked over to the sofa with him. I watched how they sat down on the sofa, Jihyun now sitting in Hobi's knee but still tucked into his side.
"This is Jimin."
I pointed at Jimin who sat next to Hobi, smiling softly at the little boy but Jihyun only peaked his eyes over at Jimin and nothing more. I whispered a little 'I'm sorry' to him and he just waved me off basically saying it's alright.
"And Jihyun, this is Jungkook."
Jungkook was pale as white watching my son in Hobi's arms. He too looked like a deer in headlights, how long had he been looking like this?
"Jungkook are you alright?"
I patted his shoulder and that seemed to snap him out of whatever it was that he was in and looking around the room.
"Huh? What?" Jungkook
"Are you alright?"
He nods at me but his eyes go back to Jihyun who was now watching Jungkook from across the room.
"Hi Jihyun!" Jungkook
He waved at him and Jihyun seems to relax a little more, pulling away from Hobi to run back over to me and hug my leg.
"Mommy, where my car?" Jihyun
I pointed to the little basket of toys over beside Jungkook.
"They're just over there, sweetie."
I ran my fingers through his hair while he stared at the basket unsure what to do but before I could say anything he must of gathered the courage to go to the basket next to Jungkook. I was watching Jihyun take out some cars but I ended up watching Jungkook with how he looks at my son. It was something I couldn't quite put my finger on but I'll figure it out.
The little boy sprung up from being bent over to hand over a blue car to Jungkook to which Jungkook froze again with the car in hand.
"Play with me!" Jihyun
Jungkook broke out of his frozen state to now smile at him and sink to the carpet floor to sit next to Jihyun. I didn't expect this from him, taking to Jungkook so quickly. It' unusual but I don't mind it. The pair now sat on the floor playing with toy cars so I took the chance to sit next to Jimin and on the sofa and probably have a chat while Jihyun was distracted.
"He's lovely Y/n." Jimin
"Yeah he sure can be shy, it remains me of someone." Hobi
Jungkook coughed next to my leg on the floor but I ignored him.
"Really? Who?"
"Oh.....er.my cousin, when she was a child she was always so shy." Hobi
"Oh okay. So what have you lot been doing all these years? You still haven't explained why you've been gone since before graduation."
Hobi looked away to the floor and dusted something from his shoe while Jimin shifted in his seat next to me.
"Well you see Y/n, we just left school for training, in our family businesses that ll work together believe it or not." Jimin
"What kind of business?"
"Oil. Our businesses work together for this country for oil and we've been travelling the world to learn how to handle business." Hobi
"You still could of picked up the phone."
"I know I'm sorry. That's my fault, I've been so busy and it all picked up so fast that my dad wanted me to start right away." Hobi
I narrowed my eyes at him with a little smile on my lips.
"I'll believe you this time Hobi but if you're lying to me I'll find out. I always do."
He nods at me and chuckles before taking a sip of his coffee that Jungkook made and brought through.
"Kookie! Take this one!" Jihyun
I quickly turn to watch what he was talking about. Jihyun was sitting on Jungkook stretched out leg while he the cars spaced out in between his legs. Jihyun was taking a blue car from Jungkook to replace it with a yellow car. It was nice to see Jihyun bond with a man, he's so use to being around females all the time to see him with another male is a new sight. However with Jihyun being bossy like he was Jungkook didn't seem to mind playing with him and just let my son control him in their game of cars.
"So Y/n, how's life been with you?" Jimin
I turned my attention back to the two men on my sofa.
"Oh like I said yesterday nothing new going on. I do online college courses at night when Jihyun is asleep or at the moment when ever he can sleep."
"That's good, what course are you doing?" Hobi
I shrugged at him, my course wasn't anything special but it didn't hurt to get some sort of qualification.
"Nothing fancy just computing studies in business management. I get to chose my own hours so it works out for now."
"It's still something though, unless you want to work at the super market for the rest of you life?" Hobi
I like working at the supermarket, the manager is really nice and the people I work with are nice too. It's simple but it's good for now, plus they're really understanding when it comes to my days that I can't work because of Jihyun.
"No I dont' want to work there for the rest of my life. I eventually want to move onto better things."
"How about you come work for me?" Jungkook
What??
"Sorry? What did you say?"
"What I you come work for me? My assistant is retiring later this week and I was looking for a new assistant but since you're all ready doing business management I don't seen the harm." Jungkook
He shrugs not look up from the cars that Jihyun was smashing together.
"I couldn't do that. I have Jihyun to think about and I'm not even qualified yet."
He chuckles on the floor and then looks up at me with a smirk.
"You always think of Jihyun first don't you?"
What kind of question is that?
"Of course I do. What I do can affect him too, so I have to think about the future to take care of him and myself."
"Well then this job would be good for you then. You can work when you can with me and the building own has their own day care for parents working with in the building." Jungkook
"You own you're own building?"
"Yeah, it's the perks of taking over family business. Come on just say yes. I know you want to." Jungkook
His smirk grows while I think about it some more.
"Jungkook are you sur-"
Hobi was cut off with Jungkook now glaring at him across the room.
"Yes I'm sure. She can handle it. Cant you Y/n." Jungkook
He gave me a daring smile that I couldn't refuse. I can so do the job, I just don't want the decision to come bite me on the ass later on.
"Yeah I could take on the job."
He laughed out loud, throwing his head back, causing Jihyun to give him a startled look when he too started to lean backwards into Jungkook.
"See! I know you can handle it well." Jungkook
He smirked once again before looking back to Jihyun, but I can't help this voice at the back of my mind telling me I there's another meaning to his comment.
"Well if that's the case then Y/n when you come to vivsit the day care how about we introduce the little guy to the other guys?" Hobi
"What other guys?"
"Oh well remember everyone else at school? Yoongi, Taehyung, Jin and Namjoon. We all work in Jungkook's building so it would be nice for the guys to him too, you know since we all left school before we got to see the little guy." Hobi
Oh yeah. I forgot about that for a second. The guys from the game on the same night as the incident were all there to support me when needed. I didn't know them very personally but like I've said before they were the only people besides my friends that weren't mean about the whole thing, but out of all of them Jungkook was the one to keep most distance but he's the one that's got the most interest so far. I don't see why not. I mean if I start working there then I guess they'll see him around I suppose.
"Okay, we can sort something out."
"Great!" Jimin
He cheered with his fists in the air. I guess he was hoping I would say yes too. His laughter was adorable so I couldn't help but laugh along with him with Jungkook's giggle in the back ground. It amazes me how well him and my son are getting on with each other. It's like it was just meant to be at first meeting even though they were both shy and frozen upon meeting one another.
"Y/n can I ask you a personal question first?" Hobi
"Of course Hobi. I can't keep anything from you."
"I know which is why I'm going to ask you. If one of them asked I know you would lie or not tell." Hobi
It's true I can never lie to him and even if I were to somehow lie to him he would always figure it out by my face. I can't bare to look at him in the eyes when I do.
"Well ask away then."
"Have you got a boyfriend or have you dated recently?" Hobi
Why would he ask me that out of the blue?
"I'm only asking because of....you know. The.....you know." Hobi
He didn't want to say it but I knew what he meant. He whispered to me, leaning over Jimin so Jihyun wouldn't hear and ask questions. I see why he would ask now. It has been four years since we last saw each other so he would be curious to see if I would do anything with a man an the truth is I haven't.
"You want the truth?"
He nods and Jimin just sits back on the sofa. Obviously he knows about me being raped at that party. Everyone did since someone over heard mine and Mia's conversation in the bathroom but of course it spread about saying I just said that for sympathy and attention when I didn't want any attention at all. So of course Jimin knew about it and possibly Jungkook and all the other guys which would explain their support in school.
"I have dated a few times..."
Jungkook scoffed loudly next to me on the floor. It was clearly meant to be heard but again I ignored him.
"but only a few times. Nothing serious has ever happened, so never had a boyfriend in the picture and if you want to know more details I've never been able to let any man touch me after...that."
"Thank god."
I heard Jungkook whisper to himself. I heard it and I think Jimin and Hobi heard it but Jungkook didn't notice that we were all looking at him, he was too busy playing with the cars. That guy is one weird dude.
