The entire Kim Mansion was glowing beautifully under the warm evening lights.
After an extremely productive day, Suga and Jimin had already returned home.
The two were sitting side by side on the large couch in the living room. Their laptops were open. Files were spread across the table. Documents, reports, charts and project plans covered almost every inch of the center table. It was their very first official project together. The same project that had been handed over to them after their successful presentation earlier that day. Both were completely focused.

Jimin was checking financial reports while Suga was reviewing project schedules.

Every now and then they would discuss something seriously.

Suga-: This section needs a few corrections.

Jimin-: Hmm... I'll rectify it.

Their teamwork was surprisingly smooth.

From a distance...

Namjoon and Bogam sat together watching them. The proud smiles on both fathers' faces were impossible to hide. Watching their children handle such a huge responsibility made them emotional. After all...This was only the beginning of their journey as future business leaders.

A few moments later...

Namjoon looked at the wall clock. His eyebrows immediately frowned.

Nam-: kitna late hogya haii abtk yeh sb nhi aaye....

Bogam sighed. Knowing exactly who they were talking about.

Bogam-: dono jb sath hoti hai tb kaha dono ko time ya jagah ka kuch pta chlta hai.... Krrhi hongi shopping.... Aaj koi rokne wala bhi toh nhi hai dono ko.... Aur tae kookie bol rhe honge toh unki kaha sunti hai yeh kbhi..... Ulta bchcho se bag uthwa rhi hongi....

Namjoon instantly started laughing.

Nam-: (giggled) bechare bchche.... Aaj ke baad dono inke sath kbhi jane ka nhi sochenge....

Both fathers burst into laughter together.

Meanwhile...

Yoonmin also heard everything.

Jimin immediately giggled.

Jimin-: Poor Taekook...

Suga-: May God save them.

Both laughed.

Completely unaware of the disaster currently happening at the mall.

Shopping Mall

After almost twelve straight hours of shopping...The legendary shopping duo...
Kim Jin and IU...Finally reached the billing counter. Behind them...Two exhausted souls were barely alive. Tae and Jungkook.
Both were carrying shopping bags....Not a few....Not dozens....Hundreds....Big bags....
small bags....Luxury bags....Gift bags.... Branded bags....Boxes...Packages....Even the shopping staff looked traumatized. The billing counter itself had disappeared beneath a mountain of shopping items. The worker stared at everything. Then looked at Jin.....Then IU....Then the shopping mountain.... Then Taekook. Then again at the shopping mountain. Finally she spoke.

Worker-: y-yeh sab aapka hai....??

Jin and IU nodded proudly. Like two victorious queens returning from war. The worker then noticed Taekook. Their faces looked lifeless. Their shoulders had given up. Their souls had left their bodies hours ago. Immediately she understood.

Worker-: hmm... Smjh gyi.... Yeh aapka hi hai....

Tae almost cried. Jungkook wanted to cry.
Then the billing process started..Since the amount of items was so huge...Six workers had to work together. Even the mall staff looked tired while scanning the products.

Thirty minutes later...

The billing finally ended. Jin and IU proudly paid the amount using their husbands' black cards.

At Kim Mansion...

Both Namjoon and Bogam suddenly received notification alerts. The moment they looked at the amount...Their souls almost left their bodies.

Nam-: (shocked) what the hell....

Bogam-: itna kaun shopping krta hai....

Both immediately looked at each other.
The pain in their eyes was identical.

Bogam & Nam-: aaj ke baad inko apna black card kbhi nhi denge....

The moment Yoonmin heard that... They burst out laughing.

Back at the Mall

Everything was finally packed into large shopping bags. The staff had somehow managed to organize everything.

Jin looked toward Taekook.

Jin-: dono ache se saare bags laakr gadi mei rkh dena.....

Then both mothers simply walked away. Leaving the poor children behind. Tae and Jungkook slowly turned toward the staff.
Then gave them painful smiles. The staff looked at them sympathetically. A few workers even helped carry the bags.

After nearly fifteen minutes of struggle...

The entire mountain of shopping bags was somehow loaded into the car. Jungkook collapsed against the driver's seat. Tae dropped into the passenger seat. Both looked dead.

Meanwhile...

The two mothers sat comfortably in the back seats. Completely refreshed. Completely satisfied. And proudly discussing today's successful shopping adventure. Along with planning their next shopping trip. The horror on Taekook's faces was immediate.

Thirty Minutes Later

They finally reached Kim Mansion. The car stopped. Jin and IU immediately got out.
Then happily walked inside.

Inside the hall...

Everyone looked up.

Nam-: bchche kaha hai....??

Jin-: aarhe hai.... Car park krrhe hai...

Bogam-: aur shopping bags??

IU-: taekook ko bole hai... Vhi dono laarhe hai....

The moment the fathers heard this... They were worried.

Outside...

Taekook parked the car. Then started carrying the shopping bags .....Again....Both looked like overworked delivery workers.
After somehow balancing all the bags... They entered the mansion. The scene was absolutely unbelievable. Their shoulders were hidden. Their arms were hidden.
Even their faces were hidden beneath the mountain of bags. Only voices could be heard.

Jungkook-: Hum aagye...

Tae-: sab hatt jao.... Bhut bhari hai....

Everyone immediately rushed forward.
Yoonmin helped them place all the bags properly. The moment the bags were removed...Taekook directly collapsed onto the couch. Both were breathing heavily.
Looking completely exhausted. Namjoon and Bogam immediately were worried.

Nam-: yeh kya kiya aap dono ne hmare bchcho ke sath....

Jin casually shrugged.

Jin-: kuch nhi kiya.... 4 bag kya utha liye aise halat hogyi dono ki.... Aaj kl ke bchche.... Kitne kamzor hogye hai....

The entire room became silent. Everyone slowly looked toward the giant mountain of shopping bags. Then looked back at Jin.
Then again at the bags. Then sighed. Nobody even bothered arguing. Because everyone knew she would never admit her mistake.

Suddenly Tae sat up dramatically.

Tae-: 4 nhi.... 400 bag bolte hai.... Voh bhi 400 hum dono ne uthaya.... 400 bags each....

Jungkook immediately supported her.

Jungkook-: exactly.... Itna kaun shopping krta hai..... Dono hosh kho deti hai mall mei jaakr.... Inka bs chle pura mall ka sara samaan khreed le....

Yoonmin looked toward the mountain. Then spoke together.

Yoonmin-: pura mall toh khreed hi liya.... Aur bhi kuch baki tha kya....??

The entire room erupted into laughter.

Meanwhile...

The shopping queens defended themselves.

IU-: kaha kuch zyada khreeda hai....itna thoda sa hi toh hai....

Jin-: haa.... Hmei toh aur lena tha... Voh toh yeh dono mummy mummy krke pgla ke chhod diye the.... Issiliye kitna samaan hum chhod diye....

IU-: haa.... Pr koi nhi.... Fir agli baar le aayenge....

The moment they heard "agli baar"...

Taekook froze. Their souls left their bodies again.

Taekook-: hum nhi jayenge ab.... Akele jana ab dono....

Jin-: haa theek hai.... Mat jana.... Hum akele hi jaakr lelenge....

IU-: ek din kya chle gye... Dono aise krrhe hai jaise koi bhut bada hum pr ehsaan krdiye....

Taekook looked absolutely betrayed.

Meanwhile...

Yoonmin were already laughing uncontrollably.

Taekook-: kaun hai yeh log kaha se aate hai..... Aur kyu.....??

Everyone burst into laughter.

A few moments later...

Jin dramatically crossed her arms.

Jin-: itne der se aaye hai.... Yeh nhi ki koi hmei pani pilaade....

Immediately...

Jimin's eyes landed on Jungkook. Who was currently lying dramatically across the couch. Like a fallen soldier. A mischievous smile appeared.

Jimin-: haa toh.... Iss ghr mei jo sbse chhota hai vhi pani sbko peelayega....

The moment Jungkook understood her plan...He sat up.

Jungkook-: kya....?? Sb mere tarah kyu dekh rhe ho..... ??

Jimin-: suna nhi jin aunty ne kya kaha.... Pani laane.....

Jungkook-: haa toh jaao... Le aao..... Kaun sa mai glass ke ander baitha hoo....

Jimin-: arey...ghr mei jo sbse chhotta hota hai vhi sbko pani pilaata hai....toh jaao sbkeliye pani lekr aao....

Jungkook-: yeh kaun se kitaab mei likha hai....?? Arey mai chhota hoo iska mtlb yeh thodi hai ki Mai jbtk pani nhi dunga tbtk koi ghr mei pani hi nhi peeyega.... Aur tum toh kbse ghr mei padi ho jaakr pani leaao sbke liye....

Jimin-: but its a rule..... Ghr ke chhote hi sbko pani pilaate hai....

Jungkook-: rules are meant to be broken.... Mai nhi maanta iss rule ko....

Everyone prepared themselves. The legendary Tom and Jerry fight was about to begin. But before it could start...

Tae gently held Jungkook's hand. The moment her soft fingers touched his... Jungkook instantly looked at her. Then Tae made the cutest pout. Looked at him with her adorable doe eyes. And softly spoke.

Tae-: bunny.... Please mere liye pani le aao....

Without even one second of delay... Without argument. Without debate.
Without protest.

Jungkook-: ok....

Then he immediately stood up. And went to bring water. Not only for Tae. But also for both mothers. The entire hall became silent. Then everyone started laughing.

Jimin pointed at him dramatically.

Jimin-: yeh dekho.... Itne der se Mai pani lane bol rhi thi toh yeh khargosh kahi ka mujhse ladd rha tha.... Abhi kaise tae ke bolne pr turnt jaakr pani le aaya....

Suga immediately joined.

Suga-: toh tum iski tae thodi ho.... Jo yeh tumhari sunega.... Isse kaam sirf tae hi kra skti hai....

Jimin-: exactly...

Everyone laughed again. Even Jungkook couldn't defend himself. Because unfortunately....Everyone knew it was true.

Soon...

The families decided something. Since it was already late...The Jeon family would stay at Kim Mansion tonight. And return to Jeon Mansion the next morning after breakfast. Everyone agreed. One by one...
They went upstairs to freshen up.

Meanwhile...

Two exhausted souls remained downstairs.
Tae and Jungkook. The entire day had drained every bit of energy from them. After changing into comfortable clothes...
They unknowingly fell asleep on the couch.

Tae was curled up beside Jungkook. Jungkook's arms were wrapped around her protectively. Both were hugging each other like sleepy babies. Completely peaceful. Completely comfortable. Completely unaware of the world.

A little later...

Yoonmin came downstairs. They were discussing project work. But the moment they saw the couch...Both stopped. There...
Taekook were sleeping peacefully together.
Cuddled up. Looking absolutely adorable.
Jimin immediately melted. Her heart couldn't handle the cuteness.

Jimin-: aww so cute....

Suga smiled warmly. Looking at his little sister and kookie.

Suga-: dono bchche.... Aaj bhut thak gye hai.....

Jimin nodded softly.

Jimin-: hmm.... Thodi der sone dete hai.... Fir dinner ke time utha denge....

Suga smiled.

Suga-: haa chlo.... Dono ko sone do....

Both quietly walked away. Leaving the exhausted couple sleeping peacefully on the couch. And for the first time that entire day...The mansion became calm. No shopping. No arguments. No chaos.

Only the peaceful sight of two tired hearts sleeping comfortably in each other's embrace while their families watched over them with endless love.

A perfect ending to a wonderfully chaotic family day. ❤️
