Paging Dr. Kim

Chapter 11

Jin POV

Charlotte: kookie is gone for a week. Just text me the recipe, I'll make it. And thank you.

I read over her text a hundred times, I needed to help her.

Me: can you call your friend Jimin and have him go check on Charlotte? She is sick and Jungkook isn't home.

Bro: he's with his boyfriend in florida. Is she okay?

Me: she has the flu. Idk any of her other friends who could go check on her.

Bro: why can't you?

Me: my job. Duh. We had an agreement.

Bro: soooo..? She needs someone. Not to mention y'all both like each other, trust me I KNOW 🙄🤢🤮 just go check on her.

Me: Tae, I can't have any type of relationship with her outside of being her HCP.

Bro: and you and I both know, that won't work. Tell her to get a new PCP and go check on her. Give her some fucking cuddles and feed her some soup, be her prince charming. No one from your job is going to know. How could you get in trouble?

I thought it over in my head as the time ticked by. He had a point. If she got a new PCP, and we keep it under wraps until then.. I could keep my license, and we could have a relationship..whether it was purely physical, or grew into something more.

I haven't stopped thinking about her since she left my house that morning.

Me: okay.

Bro: I knew it! 🥳🥳

The end of my day came, I got into my car, drove home, made my mom's special soup she always made when I got sick, that I now make for Tae whenever he is sick and he's home from school, while it was cooking I ran up to my room and packed a bag with some pajamas and outfits to get me through the week, my phone charger, my laptop, and my razor.

When the soup was done, I strapped the lid on tight and carried the entire pot out to my car, and the rest of my stuff went into the backseat.

Me: did you pick up your meds?

Charlotte: no, not yet. I'm laying in the tub.

Me: which pharmacy do you use?

Charlotte: the medrite on centre street. Why?

I locked my phone and drove over to the pharmacy, I went through the drive thru, when I pulled up to the window I told them her name and birthdate. Her medications came out to be a hundred dollars, and I didn't think twice before swiping my debit card and covering the cost for her. I also made a mental note to talk to her about her insurance company and see if I could find one better for her.

I parked outside of her apartment building and got out of my car, throwing my bags over my shoulders and carrying the pot in my hands by the handles, I walked up the stairs and when I got to her door I knocked.
She didn't answer.

I knocked again.

Still no answer.

I put the pot down and turned the doorknob, her door opened so I grabbed my pot of soup and walked right in, locking the door behind me. I put the pot on the stove, and dropped my bags in the living room before grabbing her a glass of water and her medications, I opened her bedroom door and she wasn't in there, I peeked into the bathroom but it was empty, I opened Jungkook's door and found her laying in his bed covered by blankets and shivering while she was sweating all over the place.

"Hey" I said softly and sat on the edge of his bed.

"J-Jin? Why a-are you h-here?"

"Because I felt like you needed me" I smiled "here's your medicine, and a glass of water. I also brought a pot of my homemade soup, it's on the stove. I'll heat it up and bring you some broth okay?"
