Chapter 18
"Hi Jin, nice to meet you here," Jimin said, he hugged Jin. Jimin contacted Jin to meet and at first Jin never picked up Jimin's phone because he didn't want Jimin to know about his condition, but after 5 months he felt it was time he opened up.
"How are you?" Jin said after Jimin let go of his hug and sat in front of Jin.
"I should be the one asking you, how are you? Are you okay?" Jimin said.
"Yeah, I feel better," Jin said.
"Where have you been all this time? You seem to have disappeared into the earth," Jimin said.
"I just need time to think things over, what happened yesterday felt like a dream," Jin said.
"Yeah you're right it must be hard being you but you are great Jin you did well," Jimin said and Jin just smiled.
"What about Jungkook? I heard his memory is back, did he contact you?" Jimin said and Jin just looked down silently.
"What's wrong Jin?" Jimin said.
"Is he okay?" Jin said he raised his head with tears in his eyes.
"He didn't call you? It's been a while since I last called him and he's busy with work, he's not with Lisa anymore, he kicked her out and I thought she'd go back to her daughter but not" Jimin said.
"What? He kicked Lisa out?" Jin said.
"Yes, I know you must be surprised because all this time you have been loyal to taking good care of her daughter, right? How's Minji?" Jimin said.
"She's nice, she always asks where Lisa is, and I always give reasons to make her believe, I'll try to contact her," Jin said but before he could call Lisa, his phone rang first.
"Hello Minji, what's wrong?" Jin said.
"Uncle, when are you coming home? I want to watch a movie with you" Minji said.
"I'll be home soon, don't make your popcorn, I'll make it, okay?" Jin said.
"Okay, I love you, uncle, bye," Minji said.
"I love you too Minji," Jin hung up the phone and Jimin smiled at him.
"Why are you smiling?" Jin said.
"I think you should go home soon," Jimin said.
"Yeah, it's hard for me to go out alone, she'll always call me and make excuses for me to hurry back and accompany her," Jin said.
"She loves you right?" Jimin said and Jin just nodded.
"Why don't you adopt her? You know Lisa will never come back, there's never a chance for her to be better unless she meets some stupid rich guy" Jimin said and they laughed.
"I can't, I don't want her to forget her mother, I know what it feels like to be forgotten, and it will be very painful for Lisa if she finds out I took something precious for her, I know Lisa loves Minji, if not, it's impossible for Minji to always ask me where Lisa is," Jin said.
"Then, how is your relationship with Jungkook now?" Jimin said.
"What do you mean? the relationship is long over." Jin said.
"Are you serious? It just ended like that?" Jimin said.
"We just need to start a new life, at least he remembers what happened between me and him, that's enough for me," Jin said.

"Minji I'm home" Jin called out to Minji with a pizza box in his hand, he saw smoke coming out of his kitchen and he rushed into the kitchen, threw the pizza box in his hands on the floor, and to his surprise he saw a fire burning in the stove with the pans falling on the floor.
"Minji! Where are you?" Jin shouted for Minji and when he wanted to go to Minji's room, the girl came out of the room with puffy eyes.
"I'm sorry uncle," Jin saw Minji wrapped her hands in a wet towel and Jin immediately hugged her tightly.
"Oh my god Minji you scared me don't do that again I told you don't make your popcorn I will make it, you got me worried" Jin cried hugging the 6-year-old girl.
"I'm sorry Uncle Jinnie," Minji looked at his uncle's face and wiped away his tears.
"I'm okay, don't cry, I love you, uncle," Minji kissed Jin's cheek and hugged his uncle.
"I love you too Minji, please don't do something like this again," Jin said.
"I promise uncle," Minji said, she lay her head on Jin's shoulder, a very comfortable place for her to lean on.
