their discussions aren't serious enough and the topic they are talking about isn't strange and creepy as well. it's just like a normal chit chat with a therapist and a girl who needs a friend.
"well, I've been noticing that, yeah, you are gathering me here... mostly every Tuesdays" li chuckled. "or... are you secretly in love with me huh?"
jo couldn't believe what he was hearing. but did not feel guilty anyways since he isn't in love with anybody. he just wanted to make friends with his beloved client nor patient.
"actually, I'm not gonna love you in a whole new level... for now.."
"i- but why?"
"go finish your studies first before having a boyfriend." he scoffed. "but I just wanted to become friends with you because I knew you wanted a friend. you are afraid to trust someone that's why. but I wanted a friend aswell. even if I have sasha at my side. I have a feeling of practicing to interact with people. and yes, I know this is stupid and strange but I don't really care. I'm gonna continue caring for everyone."
"same feeling here. but why would you care for somebody else?"
"when I saw a person struggling, I felt bad and have a feeling to help them anyways."
"so, you are trying to tell me that... you want to be a softhearted and optimistic, kind, and loving person huh?" li's eyes widened and she didn't expect that kind of answer from him.
"indeed." jo nodded.
"that's nice... but the truth is.. I'm the complete opposite of you.."
"what does it mean??" jo didn't believe what she said again.
"actually, I'm a cold type of person. I am mean to people sometimes, I may be rude but it doesn't mean... I shall take over the world and make everybody my slave since I'm a princess." li admitted it.
"but how? why are you so mean to people..? but atleast you still have a good heart anyways."
"what you said was right... my heart says I should go out and make friends but, I don't believe in the word trust anymore. that word sounds useless to me."
"oh, so that's why you avoided being in contact with people now. I was also like that before but, atleast, I've tried all of my best to do what I wanted to be treated."
"as you should. but we are almost sharing something in common..."
"wait, I've noticed that.. so that means... we are both antisocial and introverted people for real?!"
"uhuh. friends are nothing so just teach me how to move on doctor big heart." li smirked to him and admired him now. from now on, when li has problems, she seeks her favorite doctor, and her best friend's advice.
same goes with jo. when he has problems, his new best friend can make him laugh with her quirky sense of humor. they began to be close and both gain respect and mutuality and trust with each other but they won't love each other as couples for now.
