Infidelity. What causes your other half to seek affection from other person? Perhaps, they're not what you expected them to be- they're not your other half as they cheated and ruined everything that you both have.

Seokjin would never understand what urges his husband to cheat. No reasons will be valid so therefore no explanations should be heard as none of it will matter- he cheated, that's that.

He looked at his phone that suddenly lit up seeing the name of his daughter on the screen. He's driving and before he could even reach it, the call ended.

He just chuckled and drove a little bit faster to get to his lovely princess. The girl called her saying that she'll stay in her friend's house for a movie and he should just come over to pick her up, Taehyung's house.

When he got inside the house, he smiled when he saw his daughter sitting on the sofa next to Taemin with each bowl of popcorn in their hands and a juice set on the coffee table.

"Hi, lovely."

Seokjin leans down to kiss his daughter's forehead, the girl giggled and also gave the man a kiss on the cheeks.

"Hi, Taemin." Seokjin said as he looked at the boy sitting next to his daughter.

The said boy looked up at the man and smiled showing his adorable boxy smile that looks a lot like his father.

"We're going home after the movie, okay?"

"Yes, Pa. Thank you!"

Seokjin nods his head and only hummed in response looking around as if searching for someone.

He protruded his lips and went inside the kitchen when he heard little noises coming from the area so he chuckled when he saw Taehyung putting the groceries in their fridge.

"Oh you're there already," He said as he looked at the younger, "Not busy?" He asked.

Seokjin shook his head, he doesnt have anything to do for the next days since he cleared all of his schedule because Jungkook and him were supposed to go to Japan together.

That trip is obviously cancelled. Well! Atleast for him, he's supposed to accompany Jungkook in the country for a business trip and they're supposed to stay there for atleast a week.

There is no way that he would spend a day with Jungkook alone, the both of them cant stay in the same place for too long. Seokjin doesnt want it, he cant bear to be with his cheating husband.

"Seokjin..."

The younger raised his brows when Taehyung looked at him for a minute before shaking his head and putting the last carton of milk in the fried and he's finally done.

Seokjin squinted his eyes, "What is it?" He asked, he nods his head encouraging the older to continue what was he about to say.

The older leaned against the countertop before taking in a deep breathe as if weighing some things, if he should really say it or not.

"Well! I am not sure about this, okay? Dont get mad at me," Taehyung soothingly said, "I saw your husband in my friend's condo building with a man." He nervously said.

Seokjin let out a tight-lipped smile nodding his head trying to keep his tears at bay, it really is different when it came from another person.

The shame and the feeling of getting betrayed all over again with the mixed emotion of anger and frustration, it is all too much for Seokjin to handle most especially to hold it all in- he just wanted to explode but he knows that he shouldnt, he needs to be strong.

"He's.. he's," He looked down before trying to compose himself, "He's a friend of him." He breathed out.

Taehyung almost believed him, almost- if it werent for the tears that he saw slipped out from the younger's eyes.

He licked his lower lips and immediately walked towards the younger, he turned his chair so he was facing him as he knelt down which made Seokjin looked away because of the tears continuously running down his face.

"Hey," Taehyung called out but the younger didnt even looked at him, "Hey, why? Why are you crying, hm?"

His voice sent shivers down the younger's spine, warmth starts to enveloped him, the natural deep soothing voice of the older calms his every nerves but still, it wasnt enough to conceal the pain caused by the infidelity of his husband.

"It's not a friend, right?"

Seokjin couldnt help it anymore. He knows he shouldnt but he suddenly bursted out in tears when he heard that simple question from Taehyung, it makes his heart aches for he lost count how many times.

He bit his lower lips when Taehyung suddenly stood up pulling him closer to him, he buried his face on Taehyung's stomach while the older's hand is just caressing his hair hoping that it would give him a little bit of comfort.

It feels nice, it actually feels good to cry with someone. You doesnt have to tell them the story but you just cried- pouring all of your unsaid thoughts into the tears that keeps on streaming down your face.

"It's okay, cry it all out. Im here." Taehyung keeps on whispering as he caressed the younger's back in circular motion.

Seokjin is tired, he's very exhausted. He is worn out by everything. He is just so damn hurt! He couldnt understand and see the damn reason as to why Seokjin didnt got contented with what they have.

The older bit his lower lips when Seokjin finally looked up causing him to see his glossy eyes and runny nose that looks very much innocent. Though, in misery.

"P.. please, Tae," He continuously shook his head while tears is still pooling down his eyes, "Keep it a secret especially from Jea, please, please." He said in a very desperate tone.

Taehyung hissed not wanting to see the younger in such a state so he immediately nods his head. As of this moment, he will do anything just to give Seokjin comfort, a thing that he desperately needs.

"Yes, trust me. Im telling no one."

He smiled as he wiped the tears away from the younger's face.
