The Kim mansion was unusually loud that morning. because Jin Kim had officially entered his wedding-planning commander mode.And once Jin decided something—
There was no turning back.
Everyone was gathered in the main living room.
Jin sat at the dining table with a notebook, pen tucked neatly behind her ear, glasses perched on her nose. She looked calm. Too calm.
Nam sat on the sofa with his coffee, calm as ever.Suga leaned back with crossed arms, already sensing chaos.Hobi was nervously tapping his foot.
Tae sat beside Kookie, one arm lazily wrapped around her tiny waist, fully enjoying her presence. Jimin and IU were whispering about lehenga colors. Lisa sat quietly, overwhelmed but glowing.

Jin clapped her hands loudly.
“Okay everyone—LISTEN.”

Instant silence.

Tae straightened subconsciously.Kookie blinked curiously.Hobi swallowed.

Jin smiled sweetly — the dangerous kind.
“ Hobi aur Lisa ki shaadi officially fix ho chuki hai… hai aur shadi next week hai.... Toh kaam bhut zyada hai aur time bhut kamm....”
She paused and looked at everyone
" toh kl se humlog shadi ki preparation start kreinge...."
She paused," to avoid last minute confusion and bhag daud...."
Proudly looked at them.
“Isliye maine shopping aur arrangements ko equally divide kar diya hai.”

Lisa’s eyes widened,“Shopping…?”
Her voice trembled between excitement and fear.

IU gasped dramatically,“FINALLY.”

Kookie clapped with excitement, “ shopping...Yes—!!!”

Jimin smiled softly, “ timing.”

Tae tightened his arm around Kookie.
“Hmm.”

Jin continued, confidently.
“Toh maine groups decide kar liye hain.”

Everyone leaned forward.

Jin raised her finger,“Girls—”

Kookie, Jimin, IU, and Lisa instantly sat straight.

“All girls,” Jin said firmly,
“Main, Jimin, Kookie, IU aur Lisa—”

Kookie grinned,“We’re together?”

Jin nodded,“Haan.”
“Hum log bride ke outfits, jewellery, gifts for guests, return gifts, accessories, rituals items—sab hum sambhalenge.”

Jimin nodded,“Perfect.”

IU squealed,“THIS IS HEAVEN.”

Then Jin turned her head slowly toward the other side,“And boys—”

Tae’s smile froze.  Not metaphorically.Literally. His expression went blank
Nam looked up calmly.suga sighed already.

“Namjoon, Suga, Tae, Hobi aur Bogam”

Tae blinked.“…Huh?”

Jin continued without mercy.
“Tum log venue booking, caterers, decorators, lights, music system, logistics—sab kuch handle karoge.”

Dead. Silence.

Tae slowly turned his head toward Jin.
“Wait.”

Kookie felt his grip loosen.

He blinked again, “WHAT.”

Tae straightened completely,“Matlab…?”

Jin smiled innocently.
“Matlab tum sb boys apna kaam kreinge aur hum girls apna.....”

Tae’s eyes widened,“…WITHOUT Kookie?”

The room went quiet.

Tae looked at Kookie.Then back at Jin.
“Matlab… main shopping pe nahi jaaunga?”

Jin frowned slightly.
“ Nhi.... Tum log apna kaam karoge... jo abhi maine diya hai....”

Tae’s voice cracked just a little.
“Bunny ke saath bhi nahi?”

Kookie looked up at him,“Tete?”

Suga burst out laughing,“Arre baap re.”

Nam coughed to hide his smile.

IU covered her mouth.

Kookie looked up at Tae, confused,“Tete…?”

Tae stood up dramatically, looked genuinely betrayed.
“Wait,” he said, raising a finger.
“So you’re saying… meri wife shopping jaayegi… aur main… decorators ke saath curtain ke colour discuss karunga?”

Nam calmly sipped his coffee,“Haan.”

"Aisa thodi hota hai...." Said while pouting

Suga smirked,"hmare yha aisa hi hota hai"

Hobi gulped,“ bhai… calm down—”

Tae turned to Jin dramatically.
“ mumma....Yeh kya nainsaafi hai?”

Jin raised an eyebrow,"Nainsaafi?”

Hobi tried to intervene,“Bhai—”

“No,” Tae cut him off.
“Tum chup raho. Jb se tumhari shadi fix hui hai.... Sbne mujhe meri bunny se alg krdiya hai.... Pehle 2no bchche mujhe bunny ke pass nhi aane dete the.... ab tum dono ke vjh se mujhe bunny se dur rhna pdta hai.... Arey..."

Lisa bit her lip to stop laughing.

Tae looked at Kookie like a lost puppy.
“Main bunny ke bina kaise rhunga?”

Kookie bit her lip, trying not to laugh.

IU whispered loudly,“devdas mode on.”

Tae stood up suddenly, "NO.”

Everyone jumped.

“No??” Jin repeated.

“Haan—NO.”

He walked straight to Kookie and held her hands, “Bunny… tum mujhe aise chhod nahi sakti.”

Kookie laughed nervously.
“Tete—shopping hi toh hai.”

He gasped.
“Shopping hi toh hai??”
“Tumhe pata bhi hai main kitna suffer karta hoon jab tum paas nahi hoti?”

Suga choked on his drink,“Bro—”

Tae ignored him.
“Kookie—tum mujhe akela chhod kar—”
“Lehengas dekhogi?”
“Bangles try karogi?”
“Without me?”

Kookie giggled,“Tete, aap girls section mein kya kroge....?? Aap bore hojaoge.”

“Main bore nahi hota,” he argued.
"Mai toh shopping mei tumhari help krta hoo.... Remember suga bhai aur jimin bhabhi ki shadi ho ya hmari shadi.... Sbme toh humne sath mei shopping kri thi na.... Toh iss baar kyu mujhe bunny se alg krrhe ho....??

IU dramatically wiped a fake tear.
“So romantic.”

Lisa covered her mouth,“Oh god…”

Jin crossed her arms,“Bas ho gaya.”

Tae froze.

Jin looked directly at him,“Tae.”
"nautanki bnd kro aur jaao jo kaam diya ho voh kro...."

Kookie burst out laughing.

Tae pouted," gajab beizati hai"

Kookie stood up and held his face gently.
“Tete, bas ek din ki toh baat hai.”

“Ek din?” Tae repeated.
He gasped," 1 din mtlb 24 ghanta..... 1440 minutes and 86400 second.... Can you imagine.... And you're saying bas 1 din...??

Kookie giggled by seeing his cute dramatic expression....

He pouted,"Tum jaanti ho shopping mein ‘ek din’ ka kya matlab hota hai?”

IU chimed in innocently,“Poora din.”
“Lunch break.”
“Phir ek aur shop.”
“Phir coffee.”
“Phir photos.”
"Full on masti.... Enjoyment.... Mtlb bole toh mazaani life....."

Tae stared at her....,
"Tum meri taraf ho ya unki?”

IU smiled sweetly," jiju you know na.... I can't choose between you 2.... Obviously dono ke taraf...."

Suga put an arm around Tae’s shoulder.
“Bhai,” he said, trying not to laugh,
“soch… hum venue book karenge, decorators and caterers ko instruct kreinge.... Dekh kitna serious aur zimmedari wala kam hai.....”

Tae sighed,“Serious aur zimmedari wala kaam toh main bunny ke saath bhi kar sakta hoon.”

Kookie’s cheeks warmed.

“Tae,” Jin warned softly.

Tae looked at his mother.
“Mumma… please..... Chahe toh aap mujhe bunny ke sath shopping pr lechlo.... ya kookie ko mere sath decorators and all ke kaam se jane do.... Pr jaha rhenge dono sath rhenge....”

Jin folded her arms.
“Bilkul nahi.”

The firmness in her voice left no room for negotiation.
"Tu kookie ke sath rhega toh na khud koi kaam krega na usko koi kaam krne dega.... And I don't want that.... Issiliye jisko jo kaam diya hai voh kam sb chup chap kro..."

Kookie blinked,“Exactly.....”

Tae looked betrayed,“Tum bhi?”

She smiled apologetically,“Thoda sa.”

Nam stood up, placing his cup down.
“Decision final ,” he said calmly.

Tae dropped onto the sofa dramatically.
“Koi mujhse pyaar nahi karta.”

Suga kicked his leg lightly.
“Drama mat kar.”

Kookie walked over and sat beside him, slipping her hand into his.“Tete,” she whispered,“main jaldi aa jaungi.”

He looked at her,“Promise?”
“Promise.”

He sighed, defeated.“Fine,” he muttered.
“Par raat ko shopping ke saare details sunane padenge.”

IU gasped,“Live commentary?”

Kookie laughed,“Yes.”

Everyone groaned.

BOYS’ SIDE REACTIONS

Suga looked at Tae.
“Bro—tum venue dekhne aa rahe ho ya nahi?”

Tae sighed,“Haan… aa raha hoon.”

Bogam nodded.
“I’ll handle decorators and caterers.”

Tae sighed again.
“Main curtain choose karunga.??”

"Nhi tu gadde bichhayega....." Suga taunted

Everyone laughed.

Nam stood up.“Chalo.”
“Boys, kaam shuru karte hain.”

Tae looked back at Kookie again,“Bunny…”

Kookie waved.“Jaao..... Bye”

He sighed,“Fine.”

The moment boys left—

The girls screamed,“SHOPPINGGGG—!!!”

Jin opened her notebook again.“Achha,” she said,“shopping kal se shuru.”

Kookie clapped,“Finally.”

IU jumped,“Kookie—hmara pehla stop jewellery store hoga.”

Jimin laughed.
“Lisa—tumhara bridal lehenga discuss karte hain.”

Lisa’s eyes sparkled & looked at Jin hesitantly.
“Mummy… aapki koi specific pasand?”

Jin smiled warmly.
“Bas simple aur elegant.”

IU leaned toward Lisa.
“inke simple ka mtlb jo sbse heavy and designer lehanga hoga voh lena hai.”

Lisa groaned,“Haye.”

Jimin chuckled.
“Welcome to Indian weddings.”

Kookie hugged Jin,“You’re the best.”

Jin kissed her forehead,“I know.”

As both groups went their separate ways—

One side filled with lists, budgets, and responsibility.The other filled with colors, laughter, and endless teasing.And somewhere between venue bookings and lehenga trials—A wedding slowly began to take shape.With love, chaos.
And with Tae finding ways and excuses to get closer to His bunny.....
