My Euphoria
The weight of those words—“I am ready”—settled into the sterile hospital room like a thunderclap in the middle of silence. Everyone froze, stunned at Jungkook’s sudden agreement. Even Mr. Jeon, who was pale and barely clinging to strength, blinked in surprise.Taehyung’s brows knit together as he looked up at Jungkook, the softest question flashing in his eyes:
Are you sure?Jungkook didn’t respond immediately. He couldn’t. His heart was waging a war inside his chest—between fear and acceptance, between the truth and the lie he still hadn’t told. He doesn’t know… he doesn’t know I can read his mind.The guilt gnawed at his insides. He had promised himself he’d never take advantage of it. Never read Taehyung’s thoughts unless absolutely necessary. But he had—more than once. In moments of doubt, when silence dragged between them too long. When he couldn’t bear the ache of not knowing what Taehyung was thinking. When he was too afraid to ask.Jungkook looked at Taehyung, who was kneeling in front of him, still gently rubbing his back. His eyes were oceans—filled with worry, love, devotion.And that’s when he heard it."I don't want to lose you. Not when I finally found you."The voice wasn’t spoken, but Jungkook heard it clear as day.It hit him like lightning. Taehyung’s love, his fear, his desperation—they were all there, raw and unfiltered. And Jungkook felt like a thief. A silent, invisible thief robbing intimacy from a man who never spoke out loud but always spoke with his soul.“I’ll do it,” Jungkook said again, this time quieter, firmer. “But only if…” he hesitated, his throat tightening, “if we talk tonight. Just the two of us. No one else.”Taehyung tilted his head slightly, signing quickly:
Of course. Anything you want.Mr. Jeon smiled through the oxygen mask. “Now that’s what I call a blessing,” he said, eyes fluttering shut for a moment.“Appa, please rest. Don’t overexert yourself,” Jungsoonie said softly, brushing a strand of hair from their father’s forehead. She had calmed down a little, though her shoulders were still tense."I will just be back" jungsoonie not able to hold her emotions back left the room Taesha looked towards her and sighed she can't leave her baby like that no matter how angry she was no matter how their relationship was going on but leaving the reason of her breath is totally stupid She excused herself and left Mr. Jeon smiled looking at taekook who were still hugging each other and the way towards which taesha and jungsoonie left "My bunnies have their tiger"

Taesha and jungsoonie were standing near the silent cafeteria a park maybe
Only the sniffs and sobs were there Taesha’s heart broke in million pieces she wanted to comfort her baby princess so she did She hugged her pulled her closer And then silence again.
Not awkward not heavy it was peaceful Although the hug was needed but emotion they were still raw It wasPainful.Unsaid.Their Appa had just asked them to marry.And yet the silence between them screamed louder than any fight they had ever had.Until it snapped.“He really wants this?” Jungsoonie scoffed, more to herself than anyone. “Even on his deathbed?”Taesha flinched at the words. Her shoulders stiffened, but she didn’t reply.Still silence.
And then finally—“Don’t.”
Taesha’s voice trembled.when jungsoonie wanted to push her she knew what was coming jungsoonie Will hurt herself again if she let go and she didn't want that But Jungsoonie couldn’t stop now.
Couldn’t keep pretending it didn’t hurt.
Couldn’t ignore the heartbreak sitting like poison in her chest.Taesha’s eyes welled up instantly. She blinked fast. Once. Twice. But it wasn’t enough.“sweet do you still trust me ..?” she whispered, so soft only Jungsoonie heard it."More than my..self" Jungsoonie cried she cried her heart out she was safe with her love she was embraced protectively and safely but soon she pushed Taesha away "Y...You are g..o..ing to change..ee again like last time.. n..no" The trembling voice the distance all felt nothing but the face with tears stabbed taesha Taesha closed the distance in three slow steps.She didn’t say sorry.She didn’t beg.She just opened her arms and stood there.Waiting.And when Jungsoonie finally fell into them, it wasn’t romantic.
It was devastating.
It was like grieving all over again.
They weren’t kissing. Weren’t smiling.
They were just two broken pieces finally letting themselves feel it all.Taesha whispered, “I’ll do it. I’ll marry you.I will change myself there will be mo mext time i promise sweet”Jungsoonie didn’t reply.
She just gripped her harder and cried until her body gave out from They returned back to room with coffee for everyone Taehyung gave a small smile when jungsoonie gave him coffee but soon wipe the corner of her eyes pat her head and looked at Taesha who nodded "Soonie come here" Jungkook called hugging her little sister tightly they didn't cry this time too tired the sibling soon drifted to sleep knowing their love of the life were here to handle things The group stayed for a while longer, but Mr. Jeon had drifted off into sleep, murmuring something about his wife in his dreams. That left them all standing in quiet contemplation around the bed.
---That Night — At the jeons household The ride back home was quiet.Taehyung kept holding Jungkook’s hand as if afraid he might disappear. And Jungkook let him. He needed the warmth. The anchor.When they finally entered their shared space, Jungkook turned to Taehyung, not bothering to take off his weary emotions. His voice was barely above a whisper.“I have to tell you something. Before anything else happens. Before the marriage. Before tomorrow even begins.”Taehyung stopped mid-step, slowly turning toward him.Jungkook bit his lip, guilt swirling in his chest like a storm. “You always trusted me. Even when I didn’t deserve it. And you don’t know how hard it is to live with this… this power.”Taehyung’s brows furrowed..Everything felt blurry to Jungkook…Taehyung looked at him, alert, concerned. He didn’t sign anything. Just stood there… waiting.“I…” Jungkook swallowed, hard. His throat was burning. “I’ve been lying to you… Not really lying, but hiding something. Something big.”Taehyung didn’t move. Didn’t even blink.“I can read minds,” Jungkook whispered, ashamed. “I hear people. Their thoughts. Their feelings. I can shut it off sometimes. But when it’s you… I never could completely stop myself.”He laughed bitterly, wiping a tear before it could fall. “I promised myself I wouldn’t use it on you. That you deserved honesty, privacy, love. But I failed… I failed you, Tae. I read you. I heard everything. The way you panic when I cry, the way you talk to me in your head every night before sleep. I didn’t deserve that closeness.”He looked down, tears now freely falling.Taehyung walked slowly—one step, then another. And when he reached Jungkook, he didn’t slap, didn’t flinch, didn’t step back.He hugged him.Tight.So tight.So painfully tight that Jungkook felt like he would explode from the emotions he’d kept hidden all this time.Taehyung pulled back slowly and signed,"You always knew what I felt. But you still stayed. That’s not betrayal… that’s love."Jungkook’s knees gave out. He slid to the floor, Taehyung followed, kneeling in front of him. Their foreheads touched. Their hands gripped each other.“I wanted to tell you before the marriage,” Jungkook whispered, broken. “Because you deserve someone who doesn’t invade your silence.”Taehyung shook his head instantly, tears in his own eyes."You never invaded it. You held it. You understood it."Silence again.But this time… not stifling.Comforting.Like a storm that had passed.No promises were made under pressure. No decisions were forged in desperation.
-------Meanwhile Taesha and Jungsoonie were at jeons household in Jungsoonie’s room cuddled up they were tired and overwhelmed Taesha made sure soonie eats a few bites before sleeping and cuddled her entire night checking on her time to time The entire household was buzzing in silence the irony spaeking louder than truth Only one truth echoedThey had one month with Mr. Jeon.But they had a lifetime with each other
