Jungkook was not used to so much formality. He was expecting some roughness just like a new apprentice experiences on his first day at job but the moment he stepped into the official ministry building he was treated as if he was their present prime minister.

He wanted to learn and not be worshipped like god just cause his father was the minister. He was assisting his father, but he already had a cabin which was bigger than some old ministers and that didn’t settle well with him. He asked his father to make the changes, but his father just laughed it off saying that becoming accustomed to the workplace was also a part of his training.

The only thing that didn’t bother him was that Taehyung was with him constantly and unbothered. He was the only normal one in there and whenever Jungkook felt down, Tae was there to kiss and make him feel better. It had been a week since Kook's training and today he was to participate in his first ever government meeting. It was about the medicines they should import for the healthcare sector. He did his research, found the required medicines, found their prices, duties on them….everything. He rehearsed his speech but he couldn’t help but get nervous.

"Kook it's good just come back to bed." Tae who was on the bed, whined.

"Just one more practice tae then I will sleep."

"This is the hundredth time you are doing this bunny. I am sure they’ll love you tomorrow."

"You sure?" Kook climbed into the space Tae made from him.

Taehyung immediately pulled him closer and hugged him tightly. Placing a small kiss on his cheek and hair, he continued saying sweet nothings to Jungkook and once the boy was deep in his sleep, Tae carefully detached himself and walked out of the door.

With a final look at the sleeping boy, he smiled and left but Jaeseuk who had come to see his son saw all this. Taehyung was really gone for his son. But did Jungkook reciprocate the same feelings? Jaeseuk needed to know cause if so, he will do everything to make it happen.

The next morning after the formal greetings were done, the meeting started. Jungkook was nervous but eager as well to present and much to his request he started first. He was calm, collected and explained everything just as he had rehearsed. Occasionally he looked at his father who only smiled in response. When he was done, his father motioned him to come sit next to him.

"So, gentlemen what do you think about the boy’s presentation?" Jeon asked.

"It was well researched and there was a flow. Didn’t break it, so understanding was easy." Mr.Park was the first to speak.

Jungkook thanked him with a curt nod and Jaeseuk smiled at his son proudly.

"But Mr.Park you couldn’t disagree that it will be pretty heavy on our budget. Mr.Jeon’s estimation is thrice our present health package." Mr.Sonsung, the Mister of Human Resource and Development said.

"Sir this is the minimum health care package. I researched a lot and this is the least amounting one. These basic necessities must be provided to any citizen in any country. Appa we can’t go cheaper than this." Jungkook defended quickly.

"Jungkook let’s see mr.sonsung’s presentation and then we can decide."

Jungkook looked at the minister who had an evil grin on his ugly face but Jungkook was pretty confident that he couldn’t get a cheaper package so Kook returned his grin with an equally mocking smile. When Mr.Sonsung had finished, his budget was far cheaper than Jungkook’s but Jungkook was really confused because he knew nothing about even one medicine that was shown in the presentation. But how could that be? He had done his homework, checked and rechecked but still he didn’t know about other cheaper alternatives? When he looked at the minister again and saw him smile victoriously, he knew his very first attempt was a failed one and it made him even more sad.
