"welcome back to our daily gatherings," seokjin smiles. "i'm glad to see you all here today. shall we begin?"

sooyun stands up, her long hair swaying behind her. "baek sooyun. 19 years old. depression, anxiety, slight OCD, suicidal. 806th session."

"welcome back, sooyun," seokjin greets. "feel free to take your seat whenever you're ready."

sooyun nods and sits back down.

"min yoongi. 21 years old. depression, social anxiety, OCD, suicidal thoughts. 2nd session."

"welcome back, yoongi," seokjin waves. "it's great to have you back here."

"thanks," he nods back, taking his seat.

"now," the therapist says after everyone introduces themselves yet again. "is there anything anyone else would like to share?"

sooyun stands up. "coffee is a good antidepressant and reduces suicidal tendencies."

yoongi smiles at her statement, looking up at her from his seat across the circle.

"that's great to know, sooyun," seokjin praises. "are you starting to drink coffee then?"

sooyun nods, her hair flying everywhere. "yoongi is paying for it though."

yoongi laughs. "aish, using me for coffee, huh?"

"you're the one that offered it," she teases, sticking her tongue out.

"i thought you didn't know me well enough to let me spend so much a day for you."

"yeah well i do now."

seokjin opens his mouth to say something but shuts it. he'd rather not interrupt their lover's like quarrel.

sooyun turns back to the therapist. "but yeah, two to four cups a day," she comments before sitting down.

"well, we learn something new everyday, sooyun. thank you for sharing your knowledge. would anyone else like to share their thoughts?"

no one volunteers.

"we'll move onto our group activity then," seokjin, claps, standing up.

"seokjin is so optimistic that it hurts to be near him," sooyun says as she leans against the community center walls.

"being optimistic is good," yoongi says. "better than being negative all the time, like someone."

"hey, i'm not negative," sooyun defends, "just truthful."

"sooyun," yoongi calls, "you're not gonna get any better if you think like that."

"i'm not the one that wants to get better," she replies. "you're the one who insists on 'helping' me recover."

"i'm trying to help you."

"how come?" she asks. "you're the one that called mental illness an endless pit. how do you plan on getting me out, huh? did you ever think about that?"

"everything has an ending, sooyun. even infinity has to end somewhere," yoongi says.

he takes a deep breath before speaking.

"since forever has a stopping point, i'm here to help you out of what seems to never end; your diagnosis."
