Chapter 38 • Pt. 5, 2

"Jungk-"

He left her with the words in her mouth and strode furiously along the sidewalk. The guest house was on the same street that led to the beach, right in front of huge hotels and resorts, bars and restaurants, obviously with prices as high as your blood pressure could get when eating there and seeing the bill.

Lisa followed quickly, sliding her arms into the sleeves of his jacket so that it didn't fall off her shoulders. "Jungkook!"

He stopped for her but he was breathing heavily and clearly outraged. Lisa was so used to him being calm and her being the angry one that she was shocked and she doubted what exactly to do. But what else was left to do?

She smiled and took his hand. "Don't let me behind, gosh!" she playfully scolded him and pulled him to keep walking towards the beach. If she expected to find a smile in response as always happened, this time it didn't happen.

Jungkook was still tense and furious and she became awkward, afraid of starting a talk that would end up being a hundred times more awkward and she had no idea what to say.

The breeze was good company and the streets were not even completely empty, several drunk or "very happy" people had just left the bars and had gathered at the edges of the beach entrance to drink more or dance to music coming from some cars.

"It's not that bad," she finally told him, in a relaxed tone.

He sholdn't be so angry for something so insignificant, as she thought before, they could take their things and go to another place without other problems. Unpredicted issues like this happened all the time. And she also didn't want him angry, they were having a good night.

Jungkook let out a big sigh and ran a hand through his hair, releasing his hand from hers. He was frustrated as well as angry and she understood that he was blaming himself for what had just happened. It made sense when knowing Jungkook. He had been just as frustrated on their first date, when he couldn't take her out to eat at a restaurant because of that claw machine incident.

"Jungkook, c'mon, we had a good night and good days, this is really nothing," she added, trying to calm him down.

"It is something!" he refuted her, spitting out the words. "Why aren't you mad? Don't you want to sleep?"

Lisa thought about it and shrugged. "No?"

Not like she was sleepy right now when he was so altered. She wasn't even sleepy before, tired, yes and with her feet hurting, also yes and those were the only reasons why they called it a night. No one wanted to sleep there to begin with.

Or did he?

Jungkook sighed again and pinched the bridge of his nose, his other hand on his waist, as if he was controlling himself not to explode.

What the hell was wrong with him? It wasn't really that deep!

"We can take our things and go to another place tomorrow, not even tomorrow tomorrow, just in two hours"

Jungkook scoffed. "Sure, because we're going to find a new place in the middle of the summer season at a good price"

Ah, so now he was being sarcastic. AND FOR WHAT?! She was just trying to loosen up the situation for him to feel better.

And why was the price even a problem? She brought her savings with her, she could pay for it if he was running out of money.

Lisa took a deep breath, crossing her arms and feeling a slight hint of Jungkook's perfume. This wasn't going anywhere and the argument was dumb.

"Jungkook," she called out to him, reaching out to take his hand in hers, stroking the back of it with her thumb. Jungkook finally looked at her after sighing and was met with an exhausted but complacent look. "Can we just walk on the beach? I don't want to fight, not with you"
