"Hi~ hyung~" Jungkook greeted the elder who stood under his door frame.

"Hah, do you want to go somewhere specific tonight?"

Jungkook's smile turned into a small frown.

"Actually, I need to talk to you about something. Uhm, come in please." Hoseok removed his footwear and stepped inside the apartment.

"You dont hate me, do you?" Hoseok wondered and Jungkook chuckled.

"No hyung, not at all. You're the next safest person I can talk to, after Jimin."

"Continue.."

"Please don't think of me disgustingly but I just feel the need to tell someone else other than Jimin."

"Jungkook, hey, calm down. You're getting too tensed. Are you sure you're ready to discuss it with me?"

"Im nervous of how you may react."

"Unless you've murdered someone, I know it's not that bad. Go on tell me." Hoseok comforted the younger as much as he could.

Jungkook breathed in and out through his nose. Hoseok took the younger's hand in his and lightly rubbed them, hoping it would calm him. He felt more at ease under Hoseok's touch.

"Im..." Jungkook started. "... I have my own way of escaping my adult life. Hyung... I'm a little." Jungkook pulled his hands away from Hoseok and hid behind them. He was expecting a negative reaction, though none of that happened. Hoseok held both his wrists and pulled them both, east and west.

"Peek-a-boo." Hoseok cooed. Jungkook's heart did all kinds of flips.

"Hyung, you're okay with it?"

"Of course I am."

"Really? really?!" Jungkook was excited and the elder nodded to ensure that he was more than okay.

"Minnie, is just like me!"

"Who's Minnie?" Hoseok picked up the sudden change of tone on Jungkook.

"Its Jimin, you may have seen him with me when we were at your university." Namjoon popped up in Hoseok's mind as he wanted to meet this certain little.

"Hyung, wanna see my toys? I've been collecting them."

"Sure thing, Love."

Jungkook happily skipped to his room and revealed to Hoseok his separate reality. The walls were different compared to the others outside the room. His walls were painted a baby blue. Toys and plushies were on the perimeter. Jungkook's coloring books were stacked on the bedside table. His crayons scattered on his mattress. Finally, the giant teddy bear on his bed.

"Jungkook.." Hoseok called out in a whisper.

"You don't like it?" Jungkook frowned.

"I do, I was going to say that you're cute. You know? You're such a cute and a good baby boy."

"Im always a good boy."

Jungkook announced proudly. Hoseok didn't want to ruin the mood but he had to find out, where his parents are.

"Jungkook, may I ask where your mommy and daddy are?"

Jungkook's eyebrows drew a worried look. He bit his lips.

"Im sorry if the topic threw you off. I just wanted to ask."

"They left me. They saw my things and threw me away. Mommy and Daddy told me they don't want Jungkookie anymore.."
