Hoseok would never forget the day he revealed Jungkook's existence to the rest of his family.

Jungkook had been a little over a year old and it happened on Christmas Eve.

He could remember the feeling of panic when his mother had asked him to come, had told him that she missed him and wanted to spend some precious time with her only son.
