After the last session, multiple others continued.

Again and again, Minho ended up walking to the therapist, only to have a few minutes and working alors with it.


Genuinely, it started getting harsh for Minho.

Not only he constantly pushed away, but also, seeing his lover freaking out again and again was hurting him a bit too much.

But he wanted to push that out of his mind.

Jisung needed help, and Minho really wanted to do his best for it.


There was different kind of sessions.


"Minho, step closer please"

And Jisung would raise his hand with a cry as soon as Minho did.

Minho would go back home, just like that.


"Okay, Minho step closer please"

Jisung would keep his calm at first, then at fourth or five step, would stop it all, overwhelmed.


"Ready Jisung ?"

Jisung would always nod at first.

"Come close Minho"

And sometimes, when everything was too much, he would yell the word 'Red' over and over, completely tearing Minho's heart out.


At some point, Minho had thought of giving up.

Not that he wasn't motivated anymore. He simply felt like torturing Jisung with that. The only contact with him was to watch him shudder in fear and yell out. 

Sometimes, it was a bit too much for him.


But then, he really didn't want to let Jisung down.

If Jisung was still coming, still agreeing to have him in his room, then Minho wanted to go there.


At some point, he even succeeded walking closer.

"Okay Jisung, he's really right next to you" She said calmly.

Jisung took deep breaths at that.

"He's going to sit right next to you, okay ?"

Jisung didn't nod at first.

"Just for 5 seconds, do you think you can do it ?" She asked

He ended up nodding, taking a deep breath.

Minho sat down, delicately, trying to make no sound at all.

Jisung sat straight, staring right in front of him, and counted in his head. 

When 5 seconds passed he stood up and rushed to the corner of the room.

Minho smiled sincerely, hopping out of the chair and stepping back.

He was proud of the boy, even though it hurt.


And the progress continued.

More and more, Minho succeeded on sitting beside him.

At some point, when Jisung got comfortable enough, he even stayed there for the entire session.
