Jimin was having a date with his boyfriend, Min Yoongi when he got a phone call. He excused himself and took the call.
It was his private investigator friend whom he asked for help to gather information on Jungkook. He was told that he already emailed the files of the pilot so he immediately opened it.
As Jimin was browsing theough the file, his heart beat raced when he saw the name of Jungkook's mother. He rushed back to Yoongi and asked about Jungkook.
"Yoongs, I told you that Taehyung is dating Jungkook, right?" Jimin said.
"Yes, so what about it?" Yoongi said.
"Why didn't you tell me that he's an illegitimate child of Jeon Ji Mo and a woman named Yum Jung-ah?" Jimin asked and Yoongi looked at him with a slightly disappointed expression.
"Jimin, just because you're my boyfriend that means I have to tell you about my best friends' personal life. You don't tell me about Taehyung and I don't ask because that's a private matter. Should I just blurt out Oh, Jungkook? He's a bastard child. I'm not that kind of a person, Chim. He trusted me with that information, and I don't want to break that trust. Besides, it's not even my story to tell.
I tell you everything about me, my family, my past. That should concern you more than details about my friends. Even if your best friend is dating mine." Yoongi said.
"I'm sorry, babe. You're right. I just...I just feel bad right now because I just found out that Jungkook's mom was the mistress of Taehyung's dad before." Jimin said.
"What?! What are you talking about?" Yoongi looked at Jimin as if he just said the most ridiculous thing.
"Yum Jung-ah was Taehyung's dad's mistress." Jimin said.
"But, that's impossible Chim." Yoongi said.
"How can you say that it's impossible?" Jimin asked.
"Because Yum Jung-ah is registered as Kim Ji-hoon's step sister." Yoongi said.
"What?! Are you sure?" Jimin asked.
"Yes, I'm positive. I won't get into details as this is confidential info about my client. But, for the sake of clarity, I'm making an exception. I handle the stocks of Kim Ji-hoon and Yum Jung-ah, being declared as his sister, was assigned as minority shareholder." Yoongi said.
"Shit. I have to talk to Taehyung about it before she finds out that Jung-ah is Jungkook's mother." Jimin said, worried about his bestfriend.
Jimin's phone rang again and this time, it was Jungkook.
JM: Hello, Jungkook?
JK (crying): Jimin, is Taehyung with you?
JM: No, hey Jungkook? Why are you crying? What happened?!
JK: Jimin, my eomma...he met her awhile ago and he left. I don't know where he drove off to as he left his phone here at home.
JM: Shit!
JK: Jimin, I don't know anything, I'm so confused. Please, help me Jimin. I'm worried about Taehyung.
JM: Ok, calm down Jungkook. Everything will be alright. Text me your address now and Yoongi and I will be there. Hang in there okay?
JK: Yoongi? Why is he with you?
JM: He's my boyfriend, Jungkook. Anyway, message me now so we can go straight there.
JK: Thank you.
Jimin told Yoongi everything before calling Namjoon to update him as well and to ask help in looking for Taehyung. When he placed the call down, Jimin started crying.
"Hey, babe it's alright. We will find him. Don't worry okay? Come, on let's get going." Yoongi said as he hugged his boyfriend tight before bringing him to his car.

Meanwhile, back at Jungkook's house, Jung-ah has been trying to calm her son down and make him listen to her explanation, but the younger was not having it.
"Jungkook, please sit down son and listen to me." Jung-ah pleaded.
Jungkook was pacing back and forth not even looking at his mother.
"JEON JUNGKOOK!" Jung-ah finally yelled.
"STOP CALLING ME JEON!!! I FUCKING HATE IT! AND I HATE YOU FOR MAKING ME ONE. DON'T YOU GET IT?! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!! WHY EOMMA?! WHY DO YOU EVEN HAVE TO BE A CHEAT, A MISTRESS, A SLUT!" Jungkook was so mad that he couldn't stop himself. The moment it slipped his mouth, he regretted it, but his anger got the best of him.
Jung-ah slapped Jungkook hard, but regretted it as well. She was so hurt with his son's words.
"Is that how you see me, Jungkook? A slut? Have you ever asked me once why I ended up in this situation?! You have no idea of the pain and the sacrifices I had to go through so you have no right to judge me.
You have no idea how much I love your father, do you? I was supposed to be Mrs. Jeon, Jungkook. Not his wife. I was with him first but his family was against our relationship since I didn't come from a rich family. So, they married him off to Mira. But, Mira knew about us so she agreed for me and Ji Mo to continue with our relationship and support our family.
Yes, technically I am his mistress Jungkook, since he is legally married. But, we love each other that's why I agreed to everything. The house, the financial support, everything, because we remained together. Your father doesn't even see you as an illegitimate son. Why would he even arrange a marriage before with Jaehyun if he didn't look at you as his son. It was just unfortunate that Jaehyun and his parents didn't treat you like one.
Do you have any idea how painful it was when your appa told me that he had to give Mira a child? It killed me Jungkook, but we had no choice.
Do you have an idea how much it hurt when people look down on me and judge me, the same way you're judging me now? It pained me to the point that I just want to fucking die! But I can't give up becuase I had to be a mother to you!
So, I'm sorry Jungkook. I'm sorry that you had to be in the middle of all of these. Especially now with Taehyung."
"W-what's the story about Taehyung's mom then? Where does that figure in?" Jungkook said, shocked about what he just found out so far.
"Taehyung's mother, Kim Hee-ae was my best friend. And his dad? My step-brother, but Hee-ae didn't know that as it was a well-kept secret of the Kim family. I introduced Hee-ae to Ji-hoon. That's how they got together.
Their marriage started well not until Ji-hoon became a pilot and that's when it all turned sour. He kept on cheating on Hee-ae, first with FAs and then to some random girls from countries he flew to. Hee-ae found out about it somehow and she was going to confide to me one day and went to my house with a much younger Taehyung in tow. But, when they got there, oppa Ji-hoon was there with me for some business matters and Hee-ae jumped to the conclusion that we were having an affair. I saw how broken she and Taehyung were, but Hee-ae didn't talk to me after that.
Two days after, she killed herself and the blame fell on the famous slut of a mistress, me! Do you have an idea how much it hurts knowing that I caused the death of my best friend?!
You have no idea what I have been through!
So, now that you know, Jungkook, call me a slut one more time." Jung-ah said before falling down on her knees and sobbed.
Jungkook stood frozen and looked at his mother. A few seconds later, he crouched down and hugged her.
"I'm so sorry eomma. I didn't mean what I said. I was just so angry. I'm so sorry that you had to go through it alone. Forgive me eomma. I'm such a bad son. I'm so so sorry." Jungkook said as he started sobbing too. They stayed that way for quite a while until Jung-ah felt too drained and overwhelmed that she fell asleep in Jungkook's arms.
Jungkook carried his mom to the guest room and laid her on the bed. He stared at his mother and wept again. He felt so lost and in the midst of that feeling, he knew that he needed one person to find his way back. And that's when it hit him hard. Taehyung has left him and has no idea where his boyfriend was, and if he was even coming back.
