Jungkook's POV
I woke up early to go wake my sister up for her appointment with Dr Shin with some help from Counsellor Ho
I haven't told her exactly really what we're doing there except I also have an appointment with him in relation to her.
"Come wake up" I try waking her but she just get a little squirmy.
'She's already a cafe boss but still that cute baby sister of mine' I softly giggle in my thoughts before scooping her up and holding her in my arms till she's awake.
Something I always do to her when we're young when she just doesn't want to get up.
She ends up waking up after a while hugging me. "How you're feeling now?" I asked her hugging her back.
"Groggy bored." She sleepily chuckling. "I know but we gotta get up for the day." I tell her scooping her up and putting her in the bathroom on her own to wash up.
I went to the kitchen making us both some food. Bora and Inhye have told me quietly in person before that Junghwa barely eats a small bowl of salad she made herself to last her shifts so I decided to message Jin for some ideas.
Jungkook: Need your help?
Jin: Yeah?
Jungkook: Any grand ideas for a good and hearty breakfast?
Jin: Good and hearty? You can use the ham and eggs, add some cheese on the eggs to make it creamy
Jungkook: Nice! Thanks!
I decided to make according to Jin's suggestion but give Junghwa a little more food so she won't go hungry.
'I think I will have to get up making her meals if she keeps this up' I think to myself looking at the food I made on the table.
Junghwa is soon out of the bathroom and I went to wash up. I took a quick washing up and came out soon to her looking at the food.
I just gave her the plate with more food while I have the plate with the usual amount I take. "Why does yours and mine look so different?" She asks me.
"It's the same." I tell her chuckling. She just nods her head and quietly eats her food which I also soon did as well.
"Thank you." she says. "Your welcome" I smiled seeing her eat. We both soon finish eating and I have everything washed up before walking her to Dr. Shin's place.
"So many new friends we are meeting lately." She shyly shows her bunny teeth as we walked
"So cute~~" I nod, agreeing. "Anyone you like so far?" i ask her. "I'm a little more comfortable with Blake so far, the rest I'm not sure." She answers as she opens the wrapper of the lollipop I gave her
"Good." i say. It was 3 blocks to Dr. Shin's place but a really quiet walk. I know Junghwa loves to play with those building blocks so I just let her play. "Good morning, seeing Dr. Shin?" The lady at the counter always asks me
I just nod my head. "Dr Shin will be out soon." the staff tells me. I understand and just join my sister playing the building blocks.
I know she's an owner of a cafe but she still has the heart of a child after all.
I smile as I watch her play. A short while later, Dr. Shin comes out of his room. "You are early today" He chuckles at me
I point silently to my sister. "She's so adorable~" He squeals a little before asking me her age. "2 years younger, she will be 20 this year.
"Really?" he asks, shocked. I nodded my head. My sister soon looks up and just waves at him without saying anything
Dr Shin waves back. "Its a 50-50 guarantee that she will talk. It took her a while to warm up to everybody at Big Hit." I whispered to him a little worried
He nods, understanding. "Junghwa, want to come play some interesting cards with me? I have a lot of new cards in my office" He politely asks Junghwa as he bends down to her height.
Junghwa just looks at him. She nods her head before packing up the building blocks and followed him in.
I decide to wait out here while those two go in. The annoying lady at the counter decides to start a conversation with ME instead.
'Help me' I think to myself as she starts that. "That's your younger sister?" She asks me
I nod. "She's so cute. Is she still studying?" She then asks me again. "She's running a small cafe." I softly said
"I believe she finished studying last year." i add on. "She will be an adorable boss. She look so cute~" She softly squeal
"She is cute and adorable.′ I say. After over an hour of the 'dreadful' conversation, Dr. Shin comes out with Junghwa and calls me in.
"Be careful of the counter people." I whispered to her before going in with Dr. Shin. She nods and I go in. "I can see your sister is as introverted if not, more than you." He says the moment I close the door
"I guessed that." I say. "She is surprisingly intelligent for a 19-20 year old I believe. I guess she did learn way lot during her 6-7 years in the United States." He says.
"But I'm wondering something though." He then adds on. "That is?" i ask. "Did your younger sister told you that she was under treatment for panic attacks from 2015-2017?" He brings up his question to me.
'Panic attack? Junghwa didn't tell me anything!' I thought to myself looking at him in shock. I shake my head. "Apparently she did, I have a record here from the psychology unit in Sutter Medical Center" He then shows me my sister's record on the computer.
"I didn't know." i say. "Does it say why?" i ask. He then did some things to the computer before he found something. "She's been bullied in school, stalked, beaten up, framed by 3 individuals but was always being coerced to get along with them by even the school principal..." He reads out but looking very uncertain if he should continue
"wow." i say in shock. 'Why didn't I notice something is up?' I think to myself. "S-She has a period of 3 months where she simply won't speak to anybody." Dr. Shin continued hesitantly.
"Is there a way we can help?" i ask. "Just be there for her when she needs it, don't go over or under, communicate with her, and simply let time heal the wounds. I can also see that she has seen things that were traumatizing for her during her time in the US." He suggests to me.
I nod, understanding and listening. "I can see you're feeling quite down about it also." He looks at me saying with worry
"I'll be fine." I say. "You sure?" He asks me. "I just wish I notice something's up with her at the time." I admit to him sighing. Dr. Shin nods. "We can't be on top of everything all day. So just have a move on and be there for her." He advises me.
"I can see how much she really cares for you as much as you care about her, that she isn't willing to worry you." He adds on with a whisper. "Thank you" I thanked him
"No worries." He says as I leave the room. Junghwa is just quietly back at her blocks that I can't help looking at her.
She notices me and just tilts her head looking at me. "I'm fine, hungry?" i ask her. She nods her head. "We will head back and I will get you some food alright?" I asked her ruffling her hair.
We wave our good byes, pay for the sessions and leave. On our way back, I've received a text message from Jimin in the group chat
Jimin: +Jungkook Can we crash at your apartment tonight please? We have nothing to do!!!
Jungkook: Fine. Just don't mess it up
"I have to open the shop up in 3 hours time." My sister then reminds me. "Oh yes! I will make you lunch and dinner for today. Will it be good for you?" I asked her. She nods and I can't help smiling.
We headed back and went to make her lunch and dinner. 'I should get Bora or Inhye making sure she eats.' I think to myself at the kitchen. I grab her phone and text the two
Jen: Jungkook here, can you both please make sure my sister eats?
Bora: My mum's sick and my dad's out so I can't come today but subsequently I can make sure
Inhye: We can make sure, better than of 5 days, she will forget to eat her dinner for 3 days or makes herself salad +Bora +Jen
Jen: Wow
Inhye: I'm coming now
Jen: I will tell my sister that you're coming soon
Inhye: 👍
"Inhye is coming soon" I went to the bathroom door where my sister's at knocking. "Okay." She says. I just then finished her lunch and put it in my new lunch box. "Yummy?" i ask.
"Looks yummy? For you?" She looks at it asking me. "Have you eaten?" i ask. "Only the breakfast you made this morning" She softly says
"Have some lunch." I tell her as Inhye walks in. "Bora has to be at home cause her mum's sick so she can't come." Inhye walks in telling my sister after waving to me.
"But it not official hour though." She tells Inhye. "I'll be fine. I don't mind." Inhye tells her. "Have food?" My sister asks Inhye as she eats
"You need food." Inhye tells her. Junghwa just nods her head eating up as I go and make the dinner the girls can eat at work
After I am done i hand them food in lunch boxes. "I have plenty and you both can have the lunch boxes for free" I tell them both.
"Really?" Junghwa asks me. "Yes." I said nodding my head. Soon after, Junghwa finishes all the lunch I made for her as well as Inhye and they decided to go and set up the cafe.
