Chapter 1 - COLD DEMEANOUR

~

Walking in his Chelsea boots as it made sound against the marble floor of his company, Jeon Jungkook, the CEO of JJK corporations was heading towards his meeting room for a discussion of his upcoming project.

His face held that cold demeanour as he entered with his head held high into the meeting room with his secretary following behind.

As soon as he entered inside, everyone stood up and greeted him.

He, the Jeon Jungkook, is well known for his phenomenal business skills and his diligence behaviour towards his profession.

There are many trying to compete with him but at last they fail brutally because no one can defeat Jeon Jungkook, no one. "Please start with the presentation." He utters in his frigid voice and the meeting starts.

~~

"Uhh where did I put it?" Shuffling through the upper drawers in the kitchen, you were unable to find the box of spices.

"Maybe here, oh yes here it is!" You smiled as you finally found it.

You were making tteokbokki and some ramen with kimchi for dinner.

You, Jeon Y/n, the wife of Jeon Jungkook.

Y/n is a housewife. Since childhood she dreamt of getting married with the love of her life and building a family with him together.

She loves cooking for her husband. She is pretty, has a kind and big heart, and is sensitive.

She is also really talkative to the ones she once gets comfortable with.

"Ohh.. we are running out of cabbage. I should go and buy it and also there's a lot to shop for groceries as well." You mumbled to yourself as you checked the refrigerator and found a few things you were running out of.

You got the dinner ready as thankfully there were enough items for today. You decided to go for groceries then so you got ready and went out after locking the door.

~~~

Signing heavily, Jungkook enters his luxurious apartment while loosening his necktie lazily.

He looked around, expecting you to greet him with that sweet smile of yours but he found no one.

"She must have gone out" he mumbled to himself as he popped on the couch after entering the living room.

Closing his eyes for a brief moment, he opened it after taking a deep breath, relaxing his muscles.

He has been working on a very important project these days which will take God knows how long but he is determined once it comes to his work as the diligent man he is.

He badly needs a glass of water right now but doesn't have energy to stand up and get it by himself and as if on cue, the main door of the apartment clicked open as you walked in with 2 heavy grocery bags in both your hands.

You entered the living room tiredly with the bags but as soon as your visage got a view of him , your eyes immediately lightened up seeing your husband.

"Jungkook, you came back?" You asked him as you ran up to the kitchen, as the kitchen is connected with the living room, and put the bags on the counter before grabbing him a glass of water and walking up to him with it.

"Here" you handed it to him. "You must be really thirsty and tired." You said looking at him gulping the whole glass in one go as he nodded his head tiredly and handed the glass back to you.

"Aigoo, our kookie is so hard working" you said sweetly as you attempted to caress his cheek but he stood up before you could do that.

"I'm going to shower and then sleep" he was going to walk away after saying that making your smile drop.

"But koo.. the dinner?" You questioned slowly. "I already had it in the office."

He uttered those words and your heart shattered.

"And yes, no need to wait for me next time." He said, coldly before walking away to your shared bedroom.

Your hand reached out to call him but stopped in the middle and took it back before looking down.

You licked your lips and blinks continuously to stop the tears that were threatening to fall from your eyes.

But you could not stop it anymore as your lips quivered and the tears fell one by one.

And this is the reality of the Jeon couple. Cold and distant.

He is so passionate about his work but when it comes to his own wife, he becomes heartless.

Acknowledging her feelings are far away, you doubt if he even considers you as his wife.

It will soon be A whole One year since your marriage but never once has he talked to you in a sweet way or even tried to put effort into the relationship.

It was always one sided. Love, feelings, efforts, care.

He talks to you as if you're a non living thing, just being a decorative piece in his house.

Everyday, you wake up with a hope of him giving you a dainty smile, tell you that he is here and always be here by your side.

Everyday, you wake up, thinking he will change but all in vain because now maybe you've started to lose hope and faith in him.

And what if ? What if you just give up one day? What if you get tired of all this one day? What if he realises it someday but it will be too late?

Maybe, just maybe, he will change... tomorrow or someday... he will. I believe him.

Like this you always assure yourself.

You feel like he gives blind eye to all your efforts. He does not see how hard you're trying to build it together with him.

All he knows is his work but what about his wife? He should acknowledge her at least. No doubt he has everything to give you.

This luxurious apartment, a car, branded clothes, shoes, accessories, jewelleries, healthy and expensive food, but, what about his love and time, just a little time? You don't know if he could ever give you that.

You took a look at the dining table and chuckled softly before looking away, feeling pathetic by the fact that you made all that for him so that you both could at least have dinner together but...

you sighed before wiping your cheeks.

You put all the dishes in the refrigerator. You do not want to eat because you've lost your appetite.

Walking up to your shared bedroom, you entered it as your eyes searched for him and watched him already in his comfort clothes sitting on the master bed with his laptop on his lap and wearing his glasses, doing his work, still.

You purse your lips as you walk up to the bed and sit on your side.

He felt your presence as he looked up at you for a second and then again continued his work. "Jungkook, you should sleep now, you're overworking yourself." You said, worriedly.

He just hummed and continued typing. You sighed watching him.

Does he remember? I should ask him. Maybe he does?

"Umm.. What are your plans for tomorrow?" You asked him, with a small smile on your face.

"Why? Is something there tomorrow?" He said without looking at you.

Your heart raced hearing his question. You feared his answer for your upcoming question now.

"Uh.. you don't remember what is it tomorrow?" You asked, shakily smiling as you waited for him to answer.

"What is it?" He finally looked at you. Your smile dropped slowly.

You blinked once as you looked down as a chuckle left your lips.

"So, you really don't remember..."

and somewhere you knew his answer but you expected too much, didn't you?

"Stop beating around the bush y/n and tell me what it is tomorrow?" He huffed.

You smiled and shook your head at him before laying down on your side, back facing him and covering yourself with the duvet.

He looked at you before shrugging as he continued his work. He did not know why did you react like that?

Your tears fell again, drenching the pillow by them but you did not make any sound.

He really forgot our wedding anniversary.
