Chapter 41🌻-ˋˏ ༻❁༺ ˎˊ-🌻

Hoseok, laugh softly. "Thank you; my lips are sealed. You guys know too much already. Nothing is sacred."

A flush crept up Hoseok's cheeks as he disclosed the secret about Noemie's pregnancy and his parents' reaction. The mixture of emotions swirling within him—fear, uncertainty, but also a fierce protectiveness for his unborn child—was palpable.

Concern etched lines on Hoseok's forehead as he expressed his worries about the safety of their baby. 

Taehyung listened attentively, his pain momentarily forgotten as he offered reassurance. "At least the specialist doctor from India will come and assist you in saving the pregnancy," he revealed, hoping to ease Hoseok's anxiety.

As Hoseok spoke about Noémie, Taehyung couldn't help but notice the love shining in his eyes. Despite their complicated history, Taehyung saw a deep emotion that spoke volumes—a love that ran deeper than words could express.

Then, there's a moment of silence as Taehyung seems lost in thought. 

Hoseok furrowed his brows as he caught the  look on Taehyungs face," What's on your mind?"

Taehyung sighs," I had the weirdest dream last night...ugh, it's just a dream."

Hoseok raised his brows, " Oh yeah? What about?"

Taehyung licked his lips and inhaled deeply," There was this girl with long, dark hair and the most beautiful smile, but I couldn't see her whole face, only her smiling mouth. She wasn't Dilraba, that is for sure, but she felt so familiar. We were on this island; it was like paradise, and I was... I gave her a platinum ring...I couldn't see the sparkling gem inside the ring," he trailed off. It bothers him, and he can't understand why he feels that way.

Hoseok furrows his brows, trying to keep his composure, "A ring?"

Taehyung nodded with confusion, "Yeah, like a proposal or something. But I couldn't see her face. It's driving me crazy, Hobi. What do you think it means?"

Hoseok is trying to choose his words carefully," Dreams can be strange sometimes, Tae. Maybe it's just your subconscious playing tricks on you...or perhaps it is your brain healing itself."

Taehyung sighed, "Yeah, maybe," but Hoseok could see that he looked unconvinced.

Hoseok starts to feel uneasy, "Hey, don't worry too much about it. Focus on getting better, okay?"

Taehyung smiled, "Yeah, you're right. Thanks, Hobi."

As Taehyung looks away, Hoseok can't help but feel a pang of guilt. He knows the truth about the girl in Taehyung's dream—about Cha-Young, their past. But he also knows it's not his place to reveal it. Taehyung told everyone in his family and his friendship circle that he didn't want to hear anything about Cha-young. So, it was like a forbidden book that nobody could open. Jimin is tired of keeping the secret because he and Jungkook are the ones who are still partially in contact with Cha-young, who had moved on in the last two years, dating a national soccer player.

Hoseok thought to himself regrettably, Then when will we tell him?

As they discussed the jewellery at Taehyung's gallery, Hoseok couldn't help but marvel at the efficiency of the police investigation, "The police did their job well," he remarked, impressed by the thoroughness of their work.

Hoseok stood up from his chair beside Taehyung's bed, the tension easing as they shared a few moments.

Hoseok smiles, "We've been through a lot together, haven't we?"

Taehyung grinned," Yeah, we have. Moments like these make me grateful for our bond as brothers."

Hoseok smiles warmly," Definitely. Listen, the other guys will be coming to visit you soon. They're just as worried as I am. Seokjin-hyung said he wants to bring you some excellent and well-prepared food even if the food here is high class." he chuckled.
