Chapter Thirteen

Mini fidgeted with Chimmy who was seated on his lap. Mini's eyes bounced from window to window, observing his surroundings. He looked at Jungkook whose eyes were locked on the road.

"Why am I going to Dr Kim?"

"Mini, sometimes people go to see a therapist like Dr Kim to talk about their thoughts and feelings. Just like when you have a physical check-up with a doctor to make sure your body is healthy, seeing a therapist will help you take care of your emotions and mind."

"Is ma mind sick?"

Mini's interpretation of his words made an ache run through Jungkook's heart. He doesn't have to be a psychologist to know that there is a big mess in Mini's head. However, he understood he must lie to protect the mess from collapsing in on itself.

"No, no, your mind is fine. I just want you to be happy."

"But I am happy. I have you and Tae who makes me very happy."

A forced laugh left Jungkook's lips. He thought carefully about how to reply. "I want you to be even happier."

Mini was ready to say something again but then Jungkook parked the car and turned off the engine.

"We are here," Jungkook announced.

They stepped out of the car. Mini held Jungkook's hand while they walked through the parking lot. Before them stood a clinic. Its exterior boasted a clean and modern architectural style, featuring smooth lines and a blend of glass and concrete materials. The entrance, marked by a glass façade, welcomed them with an air of openness and transparency. After stepping inside, they found a well-lit reception area.

"How can I help you? Do you have an appointment?" asked the friendly lady behind the reception desk.

"Yes," Jungkook answered.

"Your name please."

"Jeon Jungkook."

The lady typed his name on the keyboard and then inspected the computer screen. Mini's eyes were curiously glancing at everything in his field of vision.

"Seeing Dr Kim Namjoon from 4 until 5?" she asked and received a nod from Jungkook.

"Okay, Dr Kim always comes in here and collects his patient as soon as he is ready. Please take a seat; I'm sure he will be here soon."

They walked to a tastefully furnished area with comfortable seating. Once seated, Jungkook pulled out his phone and started reading emails, while Mini watched him closely, occasionally trying to catch a glimpse of the content on Jungkook's screen.

As Namjoon stepped out of the hallway, he immediately spotted them: the man with neatly styled dark hair, wearing a high-end suit, and the one next to him in a light blue sweatsuit, with a yellow plushie on his lap.

Jungkook noticed the tall figure standing in his peripheral vision and turned his head, prompting Mini to look in the same direction. Namjoon greeted them with a warm smile as they approached him. Jungkook stood up and walked towards Namjoon, with Mini following suit.

"Hello again, Doctor," Jungkook greeted, extending his hand towards Namjoon.

"Good to see you again, Mr Jeon," Namjoon said, shaking Jungkook's hand.

Namjoon shifted his attention to Mini. "Hello, Mini. I see you brought your friend," he remarked, looking at the plushie in Mini's hands. "What is his name again?"

"Chimmy," Mini replied.

"Okay, do you know why you and Chimmy are here today?" Namjoon asked.

"To talk about feelings with you because you're a therapist and you're good with feelings," Mini answered.
