Chaeyeon squinted her eyes as she tries to adjust to the sunlight that was shimmering through the thin white curtains. Once she was fully awake, she then remembered from last night as she suddenly starts to blush.
She looked behind her as she saw Jungkook still deeply asleep as she tries to slowly and quietly move out of bed as she takes the thin blanket from under the thick layer of blanket on top and wraps the thin blanket around her body.
When she was almost out of bed, a hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her back onto the bed and was pressed against a hard chest. Chaeyeon chuckles as Jungkook leaned between her neck and snuggled while continuing sleeping. Chaeyeon playfully hit his arm.
"We need to get up. It's already 12 pm." - Chaeyeon
Jungkook childishly whined as he continue to sleep with Chaeyeon in his arms as Chaeyeon sighes.
"No. I had enough of you last night. I'm full." - Jungkook
Jungkook said with his raspy voice as Chaeyeon gently hit him in his chest causing him to chuckle as he snuggled her into his arm even more.
"Just sleep in a little bit more. We have nothing to do anyways. We're on our honeymoon, remember." - Jungkook
Chaeyeon rolls her eyes playfully as she finally gives in and slept in his arms for the rest of the day.

RyuJin was about to walk into the courtroom until Yoongi came up to her and held onto her arm. She turned around to face him. Yoongi sighed before he spoke up.
"Are you sure about doing this?" - Yoongi
RyuJin nodded her head.
"I'm sure. Today is the last day and if we don't catch her, she'll keep coming back to hurt us, even Chaeyeon. We can't let that happen." - RyuJin
Before RyuJin could walk further, Yoongi's words rings into her ears as she halts.
"Are you doing this for Chaeyeon or for yourself?" - Yoongi
RyuJin sighed as she turns back around.
"I'm doing this for all of us. Years ago, I couldn't do anything to help my dad to bring his family together and I'm not going to waste time when I had this chance to put our family together again." - RyuJin
Yoongi nodded his head as RyuJin walks into the courtroom.
Two Hours Later
"Mrs. Shin, according to our votes and discussion, you are hereby guilty." - Head Judge Minister
Mrs. Shin arched her eyebrows as RyuJin, Yoongi, and Aunt Jiyoung smiled at their accomplishment. Mrs. Shin immediately stood up from her seat in anger.
"Why am I the only one guilty here?! If I'm guilty, so are they!" - Mrs. Shin
Mrs. Shin points her finger at Yoongi and Aunt Jiyoung as RyuJin and her lawyer also stood up to defend their witnesses.
"Mr. Min Yoongi and Ms. Min Jiyoung didn't do anything wrong but to witness what you've done all these past years. If what I think you are doing, accusing someone can add more punishments into your case." - RyuJin's Lawyer
Mrs. Shin scoffed at his words as two police men came up from behind her while one police man handcuffed her hands together at her back. Before Mrs. Shin could be taken away, she glared at all of them. RyuJin, Yoongi, and Aunt Jiyoung also walked out of the courtroom and all of three of them sighed in relief.
"We did it. We actually sent her away, for good." - Aunt Jiyoung
"Yea. Our family can now stay and live in peace." - Yoongi
Aunt Jiyoung and Yoongi both hugged as RyuJin smiled at them. RyuJin then walks off, but before she could go far, Aunt Jiyoung called out her name. She turns back to them.
"You're also part of our family." - Aunt Jiyoung
Aunt Jiyoung opened her arm, waiting for RyuJin to be involved in the hug. RyuJin smiled as she walks back to them and hugged them for the first time as a family.

Three Weeks Later
Chaeyeon lets out a sigh as she sits down on the couch, looking through her phone. While she was busying on social media, she didn't notice that someone came in and sat down next to her. That person cleared their throat as Chaeyeon flinched.
"Gosh, you scared me." - Chaeyeon
Yoongi chuckled as he looked at what she was looking at.
"Where's Jungkook? I thought he would be with you?" - Yoongi
"He's out working. He's still the CEO of his company, don't forget that." - Chaeyeon
Yoongi rolled his eyes playfully.
"You know I was kind of shocked seeing you sitting around not doing anything. Whenever I come and visit, I would always see you do something around the house." - Yoongi
"It's because of Jungkook. He told me to stay put in the house and not do anything." - Chaeyeon
Yoongi arched his eyebrows in confusion.
"Why's that?" - Yoongi
"I don't know either. Sometimes I just don't understand him. He can be weird, be too excited, or just be too lazy at times." - Chaeyeon
"It's not my fault that you felt for him." - Yoongi
"But I'm glad that I fell in love with him. Not everyone gets the man in their dreams." - Chaeyeon
Yoongi scoffed as Chaeyeon gave him a smile.
"I'm glad too. That you found a man to take care of you and to protect you in my place." - Yoongi
Yoongi ruffles Chaeyeon's hair as she whines.

One Month Later
Chaeyeon was just done getting ready as she felt dizzy all of a sudden. She stumbles back a little as Jungkook came out of the bathroom and ran up to her, holding onto her. Chaeyeon heaved out a sigh as Jungkook looks at her with his worried eyes. She knew he was worried as she tried to assure him.
"I'm fine, Jungkook. I'm just feeling dizzy, that's all." - Chaeyeon
"Are you sure. You've been sick for a while now. Maybe we should go to the hospital and check what's wrong." - Jungkook
Chaeyeon shook her head.
"It's fine. Taking medicine then I'll feel better. Don't worry." - Chaeyeon
Chaeyeon turned to him and gave him a smile as Jungkook held onto her in case. After Jungkook continue to look at her, he notice how pale she's been.
"Maybe we shouldn't be going to the party. Maybe we should stay home and rest. Especially you." - Jungkook
"I'm fine, Jungkook. Besides, we already promise them we would go to their party." - Chaeyeon
Jungkook shook his head.
"No. I'm calling them to let them know that you're not feeling well." - Jungkook
Before Jungkook could walk away, Chaeyeon held onto his arm.
"Jungkook -"
"No, Chaeyeon. Your health always come first." - Jungkook
Jungkook lets go of Chaeyeon's hand as he picks up his phone and dialed their family relative.
As Jungkook was talking on his phone, Chaeyeon noticed that the energy in her body wasn't there. She was swinging back and forth due to her dizziness. She held onto her head in pain as she looks up at Jungkook.
Jungkook ended the call as he turned to her. Before Chaeyeon could utter a word, darkness overtook her as Jungkook ran up to her and held her in his arms, before she could hit the ground.
Jungkook called out her name as he was worried sick. He then picked Chaeyeon up in bridal style and rushed out of the house to the hospital.
