28 dรฉcembre
๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ง๐ | ๐ฑ๐๐๐ ๐ฑ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐28 dรฉcembre is the date of Jungkook Jeonโs reunion with Min-ha in Seattle. Fixed to Monday, December 28, and 13:46, it anchors a scene in which anxiety about the past gives way to a long-awaited embrace and a more peaceful family connection.
Date and Setting
The narrative places the couple at Cascade Coffee Works in Seattle on Monday, 28 dรฉcembre, at 13:46. Jungkook is due to meet his mother that afternoon; although they have recently seen each other at an exhibition and spoken for much of the night by phone, he remains visibly anxious as the meeting approaches. The precise time marker gives this private encounter a firm place in the storyโs chronology.
The Reunion
Before Min-ha arrives, Shelby Anderson Barnum encourages Jungkook not to feel obliged to disclose his entire past at once. She reassures him that he can take his time and that his mother will continue to love him. When he spots Min-ha, he stands and welcomes her with an embrace. She closes her eyes and cries, overwhelmed by the return of a son whose presence in her arms had seemed unimaginable after so many years. After they part, she embraces Shelby too, and the three sit together at the table.
Family Memory and Its Aftermath
The afternoon continues with Min-ha and Shelby getting to know each other as Min-ha recalls Jungkook as a baby: calm, attentive, and often beside her. She also remembers Ye-junโs affection for his younger brother and contrasts that early family life with the change in Dong-hyun, who became an odious and unpredictable man when Jungkook was four. These memories give the reunion a complicated history without overshadowing its warmth. Jungkook listens with a smile, holding Shelbyโs hand while he drinks hot chocolate; the anger that had weighed on him seems to ease as he sees Min-ha present, happy, and rested. Thus 28 dรฉcembre marks not only their meeting, but a moment of renewed closeness in which shared family memories can be spoken and endured together.
