Dressed in a black T-shirt and gray sweatpants, he lounged on the sofa, running a hand through his messy hair as he opened an Instagram Live.

Upstairs, you and Minji had just woken from your afternoon nap. Still holding your two-month-old daughter, you came downstairs, unaware that he was live.

Jungkook was busy reading a comment, his lips moving silently as he tried to make sense of the fast-moving chat. Then he finally looked up.

His expression softened instantly, the familiar look of a man seeing the two people he loved most.

Jungkook glanced back at his phone. His smile vanished as the comments multiplied faster than he could read.

Six years of secrecy. Three years of marriage. Two months of fatherhood. All exposed in seconds.

His phone vibrated with notifications. Across Seoul, the other BTS members were probably discovering that their best-kept secret had become the internet's newest obsession. Kang Doyun, their manager and longtime accomplice, was almost certainly having a terrible afternoon.

But Jungkook couldn't care yet. His attention returned to his family. He wasn't ashamed or angry. The woman standing there was his wife, the person he had loved for six years, and the little girl in her arms was his entire world. Neither had done anything wrong.

Still, the camera was on. Jungkook quickly ended the Live.

Silence settled over the room, broken only by his buzzing phone. He exhaled, rubbing his face before looking up again. The playful idol from moments ago was gone, replaced by a worried husband trying to protect the two people he loved most.
