Marriage || Taekook

-^-^-》Part 22《-^-^-

At the tone of his dear wife, Jong-suk immediately became alert. He turned to Jungkook with a questioning gaze—only to find his bunny of a son turning his head away guiltily.

Jong-suk sighed and rubbed his temples, already sensing this was going to be one of those moments.
“Kookie-ah, what did you do this time? Don’t tell me you thought the medicine bag was hiding in the picnic basket again?"

Ji-eun stepped forward, arms crossed but her eyes twinkling with amused frustration.
“Your very capable son searched the wrong car for 30 minutes because he was too busy being lovestruck by his fiancé!”

Jungkook pouted, cheeks puffed slightly.
“How would I know the bag was in the other car? No one told me!” he grumbled, sneaking a glance at Taehyung, silently hoping for backup.

"Oh really? Didn’t I clearly say it was in the car we came in? Huh?” Ji-eun asked, her voice rising in frustration.

“Sorry, eomma...” Jungkook mumbled with a guilty voice, eyes downcast.

“That’s enough now, Eun-ie,” came a calm, commanding voice.
Kim Shin-hye, the eldest among them all, stepped in with quiet authority.
“Jungkook said sorry. Let’s end this here.”

Everyone fell silent at her words—but the younger ones couldn’t help quietly laughing at Jungkook’s thoroughly embarrassed face.

"Jin, Yoon-ji, Jimin, and Tae-tae—didn’t unnie say it’s enough? Stop laughing and come help us in the kitchen with the dishes for the dining hall,” Bo-young’s stern voice finally silenced the giggling gang.

“Nae…” the four of them replied in unison and followed her one by one into the kitchen.

Time skip...

As all the gents walked into the dining hall, they were pleasantly surprised to see the traditional small dining tables laid out—and the most excited among them was little Seoki.

“Grandpa, look! Small, small dining tables! Wow!” Seoki’s sparkling eyes made everyone smile warmly.

“And Mr. Jung Yoo-seok, this smallest one is just for you,” Joong-ki announced fondly, pointing to the tiny table. Seoki’s eyes sparkled even brighter.

“And since Seoki’s table is the smallest,” Hye-kyo chimed in as she entered, “his cutlery will be the smallest too. Look, Seoki!” She held out an adorably tiny set of cutlery, making the whole room chuckle fondly.

With much talking and laughter, lunch finally ended, and as usual, all the elders went off for their afternoon naps. Meanwhile, the younger ones lounged around on the floor cushions in the living room, discussing what to do next—none of them in the mood for a nap.

"How about going to Tae-joon uncle's farm?" Hobi suggested, a bright smile on his face. He had really enjoyed the last time they’d visited the farm at the Kim mansion.

"NO!" came a unanimous and immediate response from three people—Yoonji, Yoongi, and Jimin.

"Nope, not again. I’m not going to the farm," Jin joined in, nodding vigorously.

Now, only Namjoon, Taehyung, and Jungkook were Hobi’s last hope.

"Don’t give me those eyes, Hobi. I’m with my Jinnie on this one," Namjoon said, brushing him off without mercy.

Hobi turned toward Taekook for support, but even he lost hope when he saw the state of the couple.

Everyone followed his gaze and collectively sighed at the scene before them.

One was sulking like a kicked puppy (Jungkook), still salty about the morning’s scolding.

The other (Taetae) sat beside him, giving his best puppy eyes, silently begging for forgiveness.

Throughout lunch, Jungkook had been giving Taehyung the cold shoulder. Why? Well, nothing too dramatic—just that his beloved fiancé hadn’t backed him up while he was getting grilled like a piece of toast in front of the whole family.

Others decided to leave the two be and started discussing what to do next—with a sulky Hobi still grumbling beside them.

Everyone threw in different ideas, but our WWH Jin’s suggestion won everyone over in the end… and they all agreed to go with it.

As for our main couple—well, they were still lost in their own little world.
