The next morning at J Corp...

Jungkook walks into his office. No one is here to bother him. Good.

He sits down and starts work. He wants to get as much done as possible so that when he goes home, he doesn't have to think about it and can just focus on Minkook.

Knock-knock! There are knocking sounds at the door.

"Come in," the owner of the room allows.

Dogeon enters with a cup of tea and places it on the boss' desk. As usual, Jungkook picks it up and takes a sip.

"Why aren't you leaving?" he asks without looking at Dogeon, placing the cup back down.

"Mr. Jeon, how's the tea?" Dogeon asks.

"It tastes better than usual. You improved. Good job," he compliments with his nonchalant face while his eyes stay on the computer screen.

"Actually, I didn't make it. Mr. Park did." Dogeon smiles gladly. It's a good sign that Mr. Jeon likes it. One step at a time.

However, suddenly, Jungkook grabs the cup of tea and stands up from the chair. Dogeon halts, astonished with how fast Jungkook's demeanor changed upon hearing about Mr. Park. 

Grimly, Jungkook walks past Dogeon, out of the room, taking a few steps from the door, and as expected, a particular someone is there, standing, staring at him.

He's even smiling.

He dares to smile.

At once, Jungkook throws the tea near Jimin's foot. From the sudden action, Jimin got startled.

Jungkook walks past him, heading to the trashcan near Assistant Kim's desk. He drops the empty cup in there then walks around Jimin back into his office.

Jimin sighs, letting the tea drenches his shoes and clothes. Meanwhile, Dogeon walks out of the room with his head lowered. Jungkook probably yelled at him again.

"Mr. Park..." Dogeon utters.

"He really meant it when he said he hates me." Jimin smiles with his comment. The hands grabbing the corner of his coat. "I'm sorry I'm dragging you into this, Assistant Kim."

Dogeon shakes his head, gesturing that he's fine. He's been with Jungkook for so long that the outburst of temper—from the little ones to the disastrous ones—he has dealt with them all. He's more worried about Jimin.

"Are you okay?" he asks.

"This is nothing." Jimin continues to smile.

"Are you going to go see President Moon again? I don't think she's here today."

"She told me ahead of time... She also said that Minkook is doing fine. So happy with the new toys his Papa spoiled him with." Jimin lifts his face up and smiles thinking about it.

President Moon told him that Jungkook and Minkook are inseparable, and the pair play around all day long. It warms his heart knowing Minkook is doing fine, and Jungkook is taking great care of him—and Jungkook did bring the blanket to Minkook.

"She also said I just have to show my face here every day and eventually, hopefully, Jungkook will let me see Minkook again." Jimin looks at Dogeon. "Do you see it working?"

Jimin doesn't understand why Madam Moon advised him to do this.

According to how things are now, won't he make Jungkook angrier if he shows up here every day? He just doesn't see it working. Jungkook said it himself—he grossly hates him.
