Ara and Taehyung's schools were very far apart, after school started, despite the two remaining in contact, they weren't as close as before.

When Ara called, even though Taehyung was a little listless, he still raised his spirits and asked after her current circumstances. Seojun had been back for quite a while already. He didn't continue his education, rather choosing to start working at his family business.

Taehyung jokingly asked them when they were planning on getting married.

Ara said they were waiting at least till after she graduated from College. Next to her, Seojun started joking around, saying why would they need to wait for her to graduate from college, they could just go get registered tomorrow.

In the call, Ara asked how Taehyung was doing.

Taehyung said he'd been fine. Who knew that after Ara heard this, she unexpectedly suddenly said, "You sound so feeble, it can't be because of excessive indulgence, right."

Taehyung, "......"

Ara was only joking. Taehyung was such an obedient baby, so severely watched by his father, how could he possibly fool around with people in College? But what Ara could never have thought of was that...... It was Taehyung's father who actually didn't want any face and acted first.

Ara said that she and Seojun had something on and just happened to need to return for a bit, and invited Taehyung to come out for a get-together when the time came.

Taehyung agreed.

Ara then asked if he was happy in College. Taehyung originally wanted to brag about finding a cute girlfriend to Ara, but was hindered by the fact that Jungkook was sitting right next to him, and could only bear it, mumbling out an "It's okay."

Ara was in a good mood, humming a song as she hung up.

Who knew that just when Taehyung got off the phone, Jungkook then suddenly said, "You like her."

Taehyung widened his eyes, thinking why would Jungkook say that.

Jungkook lightly said, "When you were going to school you would go visit her every month...... Furthermore, that Rose from your school, shares a slight resemblance to Ara."

If Jungkook hadn't said it Taehyung wouldn't have noticed, once he said that, after a bit of thinking, Taehyung found that the eyes of the two ladies really were a little similar, he: "......" At this point, he couldn't say anything to deny it.

Jungkook glanced at Taehyung, and said, "What? Still haven't given up?"

Taehyung was only able to act as a common Cassanova and calmly said, "That's already passed." Jungkook let out a cold laugh and didn't say anything else.

Upon reaching the school, according to the convention, Jungkook gave Taehyung a passionate kiss. Only when he'd kissed Taehyung until he was panting for breath, did he let him go.

After getting out of the car, Taehyung directly returned to the dorms, and just so happened to run into his roommate from Busan named Jimin shaving his legs.

When Jimin saw that Taehyung had returned, he loudly yelled, "How come you're back?"

Taehyung said, "If I didn't come back you'd just mess around in the dorm?"

Jimin's eyes were round, a little embarrassed, "Isn't having too much hair not good-looking?"

Taehyung: "......"

Jimin said, "You Seoul girls all prefer less hair, right?"

Taehyung seriously thought it over, before saying, "Seems like it...... Wait, what do you mean by you Seoul girls? Am I a girl from Seoul?!"

Jimin stood up and patted Taehyung's shoulders, saying, "You totally count, with your body, even females can't compare to you."

Taehyung: "......"

Jimin said, "Then what were you doing these past few days? In the hospital again?"

Taehyung said in a low voice, "En."

Jimin said, "Aiya, from now on you should come exercise with me, I can guarantee that you can become like me." He then squeezed his own pecs. Jimin then chatted with Taehyung a little more, before going off to play basketball. The dorm quieted down once more.

As this time he had done Taehyung too roughly, Jungkook actually abstained for a while, and didn't touch Taehyung for more than ten days.

Furthermore, within those few days, Ara and Seojun returned as promised.

The first thing Ara said when she saw Taehyung was, "How come you've become even skinnier?"

Taehyung asked, "I have?"

Ara carefully looked over Taehyung, before finally confirming with a nod, "You have before your chin used to be round."

Taehyung replied, "Oh......"

He said this perfunctorily, originally assuming that Ara was only a casual question, but when he looked again carefully, he found that both Ara and Seojun's eyes were filled with worry. He said, stunned, "Why are you guys looking at me like this?"

Ara couldn't bear it anymore. She bit her lip and replied, "Taehyung...... We, we all know already."

Taehyung had a face full of confusion, "Know what?"

Ara said, "We know you...... and Jungkook......"

Taehyung's first thought was that Ara knew that he and Jungkook had done those kinds of things already and blushed for a moment, but he quickly realized, that what Ara and Seojun knew definitely was not that. Most likely, they knew about him not being Jungkook's biological son.

Seojun thought that Taehyung was upset and quickly patted his shoulder to console him. He said, "Taehyung, don't be scared, you still have us."

Taehyung's eyes turned red, starting to act once more, he said, "You all already know?"

Seeing how upset Taehyung was, Seojun didn't quite know what to do. He made an 'en' in affirmation, before saying quietly, "This information is spreading in the circle...... Don't, don't be too upset."

Since this news could appear within the circle, Jungkook must definitely have been involved.

Taehyung knew that Jungkook was a pervert, him asking whether he wanted to end the father and son relationship between them before, one would fear that that was only a taste of what was to come. Since when could Taehyung make decisions on the things Jungkook wanted to do.

Taehyung let out a bitter laugh, and said, "That's right, I'm not his biological son."

Ara and Seojun met eyes for a moment, and both saw helplessness in the other's eyes. Gossip news was one thing, but hearing confirmation straight from Taehyung's mouth was another thing entirely.

Now that Taehyung himself said that, that proved that this was definitely true.
