Third Person's POV

Taehyung exited from the hospital room, his eyes searching for his boyfriend.

After an hour long session, Taehyung was free. The therapist did ask him if he wanted to talk more or not, but he politely declined the offer, knowing she must need some break before her next patient walks in.

Taehyung is not gonna lie, but he felt a bit relieved after the session. He also talked a bit about his panic attacks which  has come back lately. She recommended him some exercises to calm his mind, to control his mind when he's feeling overwhelmed. He appreciated the lady for listening to him calmly as well, she had the warm smile on his face as she listened to him, not even a slight bit of judgement was thrown towards him. She even calmed him down when he broke down into tears. Maybe taking professional help wasn't really a bad idea.

Taehyung's eyes searched for Jungkook, but he couldn't find him there so a frown took over his face.
Jungkook said he'll wait outside, then where is he?

Taehyung got worried for a moment. He quickly called Jungkook, but the other still didn't answer, making him really worried now.
Jungkook always picks up his call, then what's happening right now?
Panic settles in him, eyes now desperately searching for his lover now. He took long strides as he walks through the corridors, trying to peek in every empty room he walks across.
As he turns towards the washroom, he collides with someone.

"Oh I'm so so-"

"Jungkookie..." Taehyung heaved out a sigh of relief before engulfing his boyfriend - who just collided with him - in a tight embrace.

"Oh Tae..." Jungkook smiled into the hug before snuggling closer into Taehyung's neck.

"Why were you not picking up your calls? I got scared for a minute." Taehyung voiced out, still refusing to let go of his lover. He really got scared for a second, thinking Jungkook left him there alone.

"Oh...I didn't hear it. I guess I mistakenly put it on silent." Jungkook said when Taehyung pulled away, still holding onto his waist, while Jungkook's arms encircles Taehyung's shoulders.

Taehyung pulled down his mask and gently kissed Jungkook's forehead, making the later sigh in contentment.

"How was your first session? Was it too overwhelming? Did you face any problem? Was she kind to you? You didn't feel uncomfortable, right? Were-" Jungkook's trail of questions were cut off by Taehyung who pecked his lips, making the other shut his mouth.

"One question at a time, baby." Taehyung chuckled out as he caressed Jungkook's waist over the later's hoodie.

Jungkook smiled a bit as he looked at Taehyung. The other looked happy.

Taehyung stared right back into his boyfriend's eyes, but frowned right after when he noticed Jungkook's slightly red and swollen eyes.

"What's wrong, Jungkook? Why are your eyes red? Were you crying, baby? Tell me, what's going on? I'll try to help, I promise, love." Taehyung gently cradled Jungkook's face into his palm, caressing his cheeks lovingly.

Jungkook's smile fell but he regained it back. He needs to assure Taehyung first.

"Oh no, something went into my eyes and you know my eyes are very sensitive so it  just started watering and swelled. I came to use the washroom for this only." Jungkook said with a little laugh to make it sound convincing.
Jungkook can't reveal that he cried after Mrs. Kim called him, it'll worry Taehyung. He's just taking steps to heal himself, he can't make Taehyung worried now. He first needs to discuss this with Mrs. Kim's doctor before talking to Taehyung.
