Love me [jungkook x reader x Taehyung]

chapter 22

[Jae's pov]

I gasped as soon Jera fell on her knees in front of her and bowed down until her forehead was touching the floor, Even My biological mother gasped, and the man beside her widened his eyes, well not some ordinary person but the well-known Business owner of various car brands of South Korea
Mr.Kim

"Please" Mom tried making her stand on her legs again as she caressed her back lovingly, I gulped as she stood and came beside me
"No Ms. Han as his girlfriend I should show you my respect" Her words ended with a deep sigh as she faced me with a wide smile

Mr. Kim cleared his throat and the urge to get his Autograph was increased second by second. My eyes lightened as Mom came near me patting my Head and hugged Jera

"Happy New Year, You are such a bright girl hope 2024 will be the best year for you honey" She ended her words with a huge smile dangling on her which I again saw after years. Maybe both my biological parents never noticed that I always knew about their actions in front of me, they just acted like the ideal couple in front of me to be ideal parents but maybe they never realized that by doing all these stuff they were getting more toxic

Every night fight between my dad with my mom used to make my ten-year-old self tremble underneath my blanket, seeing them just acting in front of me made me realize if I had never been born so maybe they must have separated earlier only instead of being in a toxic relationship just because of my sake

Was it all my fault? When I saw my other mom with my dad I realized how Happy he was again but with my mom, he just gave my biological mom his cold shoulder no matter how much she tried her best to work on their relationship which was never meant to heal. I realized that Dad should move on from this toxicity that he's facing due to me, but in all this, I forgot that Mom also needed someone in her toughest time, Dad moved on but what about my biological Mom

I was so desperate to impress my dad who was always busy with his work that I even left my biological mother all alone when she needed someone, to just be an ideal son in front of my dad I failed to become one in front of my Mom. I was just scared at that time but as I'm growing I'm realizing the actual things around me that I never noticed or just didn't want to ever notice them

I was deep into my thoughts until those same soft and warm arms got wrapped around me, the same arms that always carried me, The same fingers caressing my hair which once I used as a source to get on my legs to walk wearing diapers

I gulped trying hard to not break down into tears but when she rested her head on my chest, it hit me hard that I was too grown now. There was a time when I used to wrap myself around her legs but now I'm towering over her

My heartbeat fastened as I got stiff I saw my childhood running in front of my eyes until my gaze met Mr. Kim who smiled at me or assuring me that I could hug her back, I wrapped my arms around her and broke down into cries which I was holding from a long time, my sobs flying across the room mixing with my mom's sobs. We both cried in each other's embrace

My breath was unstable as I kept on crying, I wanted to say millions of words to her but only my tears escaped through my eyes, not my words. I tightly clasped my arms around her as I felt the anxiety surrounding me and I knew she sensed it, the way she started rubbing my back drawing light circles to ease me up

I was so lost in the moment that I didn't even notice that Mr. Kim and Jera were going out of the room to give us privacy, I noticed Jera's teary eyes which met mine and she immediately smiled in my direction "Take y-your time" she uttered and left outside with Mr.Kim

Mom broke the hug and I was too guilty to not even meet her eyes, she pecked my forehead While tiptoeing as her hands caressed my cheeks to wipe my tears
"I'm Sorry Mom" As these words were out of my throat I fell on my knees with a loud thud and wrapped my hands around her waist while crying like a baby hiding my face into her stomach
