Playing The Same Game, But In Different Levels

The following Monday, Kyungsoo made his way to Jongin's room with the bag of lollipops in his hand. As he opened the door, his gaze rested on his patient who was seated at what seemed to be his favorite seat whenever the doctor arrived – the table. The wooden chair was placed a few feet away but directly in front of the tanned male, waiting to be occupied.

Kyungsoo closed the door behind him softly before cautiously making his way towards the male who was staring at him with a fixed gaze. "Good morning, Jongin."

A smile that didn't quite reach the eyes bloomed on the other's face and he nodded in reply.

"How are you doing?"

Jongin casually shrugged and glanced at the doe-eyed male before throwing a sharp look at the chair placed in front of him.

Sighing, Kyungsoo sat down and looked up at the other. "So then, what did you do during the weekend?"

Jongin cocked a brow before he looked around the room and then back at the doctor. "Do I look like the type of guy who would be allowed to leave my room? Especially when the hallways would be filled with other patients?"

Kyungsoo bit his lip. "Well... no."

"Exactly."

Kyungsoo was racking his brains on how to start a conversation with his patient when Jongin spoke again much to his relief.

"But I would actually like to walk around if possible. It's suffocating to see only these four walls every single day. Maybe during our sessions you could take me out of this hellhole."

The shorter male fidgeted uncomfortably as he had no idea how to answer. When he had been assigned to another patient in this very hospital, he was allowed to take the patient for small walks and mostly spend time in a cafeteria like place that was for the patients to spend time in, but he wasn't sure about getting permission to take Jongin out of his room.

"Well," Kyungsoo started to wonder. "Have you ever been allowed to walk around this place?"

"With my first two psychiatrists, yes. And then they banned me."

"Oh. Why?"

"I picked a lot of fights with other patients then, and I also used to hurt the doctors who were assigned to me."

"Oh." Kyungsoo deflated; the chances of getting permission from Doctor Joonmyeon was slim. "Why did you pick fights with the other patients? Did they ever do anything to you?"

Jongin smirked. "Well, let's just say it was my way of sending a certain someone a certain message."

Kyungsoo's brows furrowed together. "A message? To who?"

Jongin leaned forward, bringing his head almost to the same level as the doctor's. "You don't need to know that."

"But-"

"I see you've brought the bag of lollipops again." Jongin interrupted and looked at the bag on the doctor's lap.

"Yes, I did, but to who-"

"I said you don't need to know that." Jongin barked suddenly, startling the other at his raised tone.

Kyungsoo blinked rapidly before looking away in disappointment.

Jongin cleared his throat after a few moments of growing silence and Kyungsoo focused his gaze once again on the other. "So, as I was saying, you've brought the bag of lollipops again. What flavor is it going to be this time?"

Kyungsoo sighed in defeat before throwing the bag onto Jongin's lap and glaring up at him. "I don't know, and I don't care. Pick whatever flavor you want today, and I'll just bring the bag again tomorrow, and the day after that, until you're done with all of it or until you finally choose the right flavor."
