Checkmate! Loss!

Loss!

. . .

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Actually... I was hoping to speak to you in private.. 😥

Nanny Mrs. Myun

There are some things about Taeri you should be aware of.😥

Jeon Jungkook

I see... in that case..

Jeon Jungkook

Come with me lm We can talk in my office. *smiles*

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Thank you Mr. Jeon.

Jeon Jungkook

Please, just call me Jungkook.

Coming to Jungkook's cabin with the lost looking little girl follow them quietly, Jungkook was more intrigued to know what is she so sad about.

Jeon Jungkook

Okay, here we are.

Jeon Jungkook

*crouched slightly to speak to Taeri* Hey, Taeri why don't you go play with those toys in the corner while your nanny and I have a little grown-up talk? ☺️

Kim Taeri

*let's out a sigh as she quietly walked towards the corner with toys* 😞

Jeon Jungkook

(Such an obedient little girl, but why so sad? It almost pains to see her look so lost...)

Jeon Jungkook

*looks up at Mrs. Myun* Okay, why don't we have a seat?

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Okay, thank you dear.

Jeon Jungkook

All right... I hope I'm not out of line here, but... *speaks hesitatingly*

Jeon Jungkook

Why weren't her parents the ones to bring Taeri here on her first day?😟

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Oh, that is actually why I wanted to talk to you.

Nanny Mrs. Myun

The child's father is Kim Taehyung.

Hearing the name, made a surprise gasp leave Jungkook's lips as he couldn't really believe what he heard.

Jeon Jungkook

As in the owner of Kim Corporations?!😲

Nanny Mrs. Myun

*nods*

Nanny Mrs. Myun

And as I'm sure you're aware, he lost his wife about a year ago.

Jeon Jungkook

Yes, I recall hearing the news.

Jeon Jungkook

I'm so sorry.

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Well, Taeri is still grieving. 😔

Nanny Mrs. Myun

We've tried sending her to different schools, but she wouldn't settle down anywhere.

Jeon Jungkook

So you brought her here.

Nanny Mrs. Myun

*nods* That's right.

Jeon Jungkook

Mr. Hyun said you asked specifically for me...?

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Yes, well.. after this situation with changing schools, Mr. Kim asked around and your name came up in many recommendations.

Nanny Mrs. Myun

You're a well respected teacher, Mr. Jeon!

Jeon Jungkook

I see... um, so I assume you've been Taeri's mother-figure ever since her mother passed away, right?

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Oh, no dear!

Nanny Mrs. Myun

I tried to be that but, the child keeps asking for her mother.

Looking over to the girl in the corner playing mindlessly with the toys, Jungkook could only let out a small sigh as he decided to pry further just for the new girl he would soon be teaching.

Jeon Jungkook

What can you tell me of her relationship with her father?

Nanny Mrs. Myun

Oh, she loves him dearly.

Nanny Mrs. Myun

They grew even closer after her mother died, but still... she needs a mother-figure and her father's girlfriend isn't much help.

The more he heard about Taeri, the more sorry he felt for the little girl.
