Jungkook's age in this chapter
is 25.

"Dada!!! Let's play!!!"

Minjun deeply sighs at y/n whose sparkling eyes are fixed on him with hopefulness.

"I can't play now baby, I'm busy..."

He says while typing something on the laptop, which made y/n utterly dissapointed. She doesn't argue back and silently goes back to her room, not wanting to get more scolded.

"Everyone say that I'm sick, Teddy. So no one likes me and I think dada doesn't like me too now..."

She says whatever comes to her mind to Mr.Teddy, her adorable plushie toy and her best friend. Catching her attention the door bell rings and she hears Minjun descending the stairs to take the guest and y/n gets up from her bed too, excited to meet someone because she doesn't have friends at all. She stands behind Minjun, staring at the taller figure with her tilted head.

"Hello, I'm actually living in the neighbourhood... I wonder whether you have any tools I can use for some repairs? I noticed some problems in my waterline..."

The young boy speaks and Minjun smiles at him, inviting him inside the house.

"Of course, I have some tools. You must be new here..."

"Yes, I just moved in yesterday. I'm Jeon Jungkook by the way..."

The boy, Jungkook, noticed how Minjun's face is covered by some cloudy feelings at the mention of his name and the little girl who was staring at him like no tomorrow suddenly ran towards him.

"Koo!!! It's finally you!!! Where have you been? I was feeling very lonely!!!"

Jungkook stumbles backwards a bit as the girl hugs him tightly. He was confused because he never knew her and Minjun immediately reacts, forcefully peeling off the girl from Jungkook's body.

"Y/n, go to your room!!!"

Jungkook watches the way Minjun says to her and the way y/n's eyes fill with tears.

"B-but, Koo is here, dada..."

"Go to your room!!! Right now!!!"

Y/n nods at last and she took few steps back, reaching towards the stairs with her lower hanging head.

"I'm sorry for my daughter's behaviour..."

Minjun says which made Jungkook pulled out from his train of thoughts.

"It's fine, but she looks like she knows me very well. Is there any chance that I---"

"No, Mr.Jeon... that's a long story..."

He sighs before continuing his words.

"...would you like to have a seat? And drink something warm?"

"No, don't bother too much. I'll just have a seat so we can talk..."

Jungkook politely says and Minjun nods, leading him towards the cozy living room.

"That was my daughter, her name is y/n..."

Minjun starts the story, while Jungkook listens to him attentively.

"...when she was six, means five years ago all of us--my wife, y/n and I faced an accident. I and my wife were fine but unfortunately, y/n got some serious injuries. Her head was damaged and it affected her brain. The doctors said there were thin chances her to live, but she made it..."

Jungkook couldn't help but to feel sorry for the little girl who has suffered beyond her age.

"...She underwent few surgeries too. She was in coma for almost a year and after she woke up, everything turned upside down. It turned out that the damages on her brain caused her to go through some types of retrograde. Like, she's growing up physically, but her mental age is no difference with a kid. It's a rare type of disease as the doctors say and her mental health will be always a few years back comparing to her actual age..."
