"Ms. Manoban?"

The three of them stood up abruptly once the man in the robe entered the waiting room, a sheet in hand and a sympathetic smile at the corner of his lips and dimpling his cheek.

"My daughter is fine?" Anne was the first to speak.

"Oh yes, she's fine, but then she'll start to feel the side effects of the anticonvulsant," he barely finished his sentence and the older woman made mention of answering, however he cut her off with a wave of his hand, "While we were to apply painkillers and ease Lisa's fever, she had a seizure."

"Oh my God-"

"Can you please shut up-" Jennie started to speak through gritted teeth, however her mother intervened.

"Kim Jennie!"

"I'm sorry." She huffed, crossing her arms and going silent again.

The doctor cleared his throat, trying not to laugh and looked down at his sheet, "Well, it was a mild seizure, we managed to control it and gave her an injectable anticonvulsant. Apparently, Lisa is autistic, according to her history, is it true?" After the older woman's positive nod, he nodded and continued. "I presume she had a breakdown...?"

Jennie felt the gazes fall on her, and she sighed and made quick eye contact with Anne before facing the doctor.

"Um, well, she had a very stressful day, but she didn't have a meltdown."

"As you know?" Anne asked.

Jennie raised her eyebrows.

"Because I know Lisa better than myself."

Aurora smiled proudly, pulling her daughter's head against her chest and stroking her hair gently.

"Um...she was almost having a meltdown, but after she called mom and saw that Lisa was running a high fever and then we got in the car," she took a breath before continuing to speak. "She stayed still, I don't know why."

"Okay...thank you," the doctor nodded with a sympathetic smile and glanced at his chart quickly. "Certainly, what Lisa had was an emotional fever. It was surprisingly high that it led to a seizure."

"But...she's fine now, right?" Jennie asked, her heart suddenly clenching.

"Yeah," he nodded, showing his dimples with another smile, "we just need to run a few more tests to ensure nothing in his body is affected before we release him. Other than that, he can only do a little work with the patient's reactions." medicine."

"Doctor, I don't know how to thank..."

"Well, I know how you can thank me..." he laughed, "Stop calling me doctor, I feel old! I'm Jeon Jungkook."

"Wait..." Aurora looked at the boy, "What is your mother's name?"

"Uh..." she looked around and after adjusting her robe "Jeon Sunmi, . Do you know her or-"

"Oh my God! Kid Jungkook, don't you remember me?!" she whispered, squeezing the young man's cheeks. "I took you in my arms!"

He forced a smile and then widened his eyes, feigning disbelief, "Oh my God, was it you?! Of course I remember!"

Jennie raised her eyebrows, sitting back down, a long yawn falling from her lips.

"Slow down, honey," Anne tried to control her daughter's hasty footsteps.

Lisa stopped walking as her eyes met the Korean girl at the end of the hall. Still, she remained silent, only pulling away from her mother's touch.

Jennie ran to her, however, with all the care in the world she wrapped her arms around her pale neck. A brief sigh escaped from the lips of the older, her hands posing on the back of the younger, remaining motionless.
