“Jimin I can't believe he just arrived at my college!”

Taehyung exclaimed while exaggerating. His best friend knew about Jungkook and his occupation. He was somehow a part of Taehyung which already vanished now. Then, what's the purpose to reappear?

As Taehyung was frustrated and annoyed, he confessed his indignation to Jimin. Because, of course, he couldn't express his irritation and Jungkook's secret to Erin, that's why it had been untold. Erin would be so disgusted to hear that and would hate him as well for this stupidity. That's what he pondered.
He trusts her, but somewhere in the perplexity, he is unable to convey this confidential matter.

Hereafter, he sighed heavily and rubbed his temple in commotion. In a broad exposure, he would never let his love be known about this sperm donation.

“You should tell her about Jungkook.”
Jimin advised.

Taehyung turned down the offer without hesitation, responding with a firm "no". It was something he could never bring himself to do. What if his love life suddenly loses its spark? What will happen if she decides to walk away?

As he moved further, and was just right beside his house. He saw a few people carrying a huge cardboard item. It was so heavy to hold. From a distance, it felt like that material to be of a machine.
At the time being, he said goodbye to his friend and declined the call. As he approached, he blocked their way and stood between them, bringing their path to a sudden halt.

“Excuse me, what are you guys carrying?”

When the worker initiated to speak, a familiar voice cut him in. The same resonating voice, like a stone, had been thrown in the water. The familiar scent of cologne hung in the air, creating an inviting atmosphere.

“Hey, Taehyung! How are you doing?”
The raven head spoke.

Taehyung googled his eyes and glared at him with annoyance. Again Jungkook? After receiving the doctor's orders, the worker swiftly grabbed the item and hurried into his house. He looked out every detail of Jungkook with his piercing eyes with incandescent.
Taehyung's tight grip on his strap, clearly conveyed his seething fury, as the pressure from his hold revealed the intensity of his anger. Jungkook was well aware of this fact, yet he fearlessly decided to stir up the tiger. How bold of him!

Without any answer, Taehyung stepped inside his house and saw them planting an oil heater right beside his sofa.
Encased within the cardboard was the machine. Meanwhile, Taehyung's mother was at the hospital, preparing for another operation, so she was unaware of these incidents. That was an essential source of relaxation for Taehyung during this challenging time.

He hadn't uttered a single word till now and kept staring at them until they were finished.
Meanwhile, Jungkook stood beside Taehyung and spoke,

“It's so cold here, thus I thought to buy you a heater.”

Taehyung growled and whispered,
“Oh Doctor, please! You just want my sperm. You don't care about anything, other than your fucking job.”

Jungkook shook his head and gave him a sly smile.

“Then give me my requirements Taehyung, I promise I'll give you other materials as well.”

“Just fucking shut—”

The moment Taehyung was about to hold his collar, a call interrupted them. His phone had been vibrating and ringing non-stop in his pocket. Quickly, he grabbed his phone and glanced at the caller's ID. It was Erin who was calling.
He stared at Jungkook angrily, his eyes flaming with complete anguish and frustration emotions.

“Yeah love?”

“Taehyung, how about we go on a date some other day? I really can't have one today. ”

Erin spoke through the phone. She knew about his mother's hospitalized condition. For now, she was handling a few important files in one hand, and with the other, holding the knob of her car. The phone was positioned right between her inner cheek and her shoulder. The background seemed disturbing on her end, but her voice sounded sweet. Then, a baby's cry could be heard through the receiver. Taehyung furrowed his brow in perplexity.

With the flowing seconds, it gets more louder and resonating. As if, Erin adjoined herself around an infant. Shortly thereafter, the sounds of distress began to grate on both of them, yet she persisted in reaching the distressed toddler. Meanwhile, Taehyung stood motionless and witnessed every voice through her faction. The raven head did the same and focused his every sense on Taehyung's words. Because it was crystal clear, he did have a girlfriend.

“Aw, baby, mumma is sorry. Look, I am here.”

Taehyung was finally able to grasp the full significance of what had been said and began to reflect on finding the answers he sought. Erin was with her most precious element, her child.
Elias Müller.

The anger he had now all vanished with the cries of that particular child. The moment Erin's confession passed through Taehyung's ears, his exasperation left his body and it felt like soft feathers to him, as if wanting to engulf his whole self in them.

He knew without a doubt just how much she cherished Elias, more than anything else. She loved him to the core of her heart. Elias heartbeat was like the beautiful and honey-veiled strings to her ears.

In discussions with Taehyung, she frequently shared details about her child and proudly displayed photos. It was evident that her child was widely regarded as cute and pretty. Somewhere, he even pondered Elias resembling him. However, for some reason, he allowed that idea to slip away from his thoughts.

Ever since the day he met Elias, he has been looking forward to holding him and feeling his chubby cheeks against his own. It seems that the moment he has been waiting for may have finally arrived. Till now, he was with his grandparents but currently with Erin.

“Taehyung I have Eli now, so would you mind having—”

“It's alright Erin, you must take care of Elias. We can have it later. And by the way, I will arrive today to meet my little champ.”

His grin widened, and Erin's smile brightened even more. She took pride in having such a caring, mature, handsome, and understanding boyfriend, which brought a deep sense of satisfaction to her.

“So you do have a girlfriend.”
Jungkook interjected. Erin couldn't help but hear it too.

“Taehyung, who's that?”
She spoke.
