FINALE • Part 3

Grandma laughed. "Then get to know him, maybe?"

She didn't want to, she didn't want to give that ruffian a chance. She didn't want him to feel accepted into a circle he didn't belong to nor did she want him to drag her daughter further away from her, into his circle of tattoo artists and God knows what else.

If she approved of this relationship, she would approve of Lisa taking a very bad path and then she would feel very guilty for letting this happen.

The older woman sighed and leaned over the counter with one arm across her chest, pointing at her with one of the fingers that held the wide glass of whiskey. "Listen, daughter, he's part of Lisa's life now and I know how hard you want to be part of her life, so you have to learn to cohabit with that man," she repeated exactly what Lisa had already told her. "If you make her choose it won't end well, if she chooses him you will lose her completely and if she chooses you, she will be angry at you for a very long time"

Her words hit her right in the chest because they were the raw truth.

She felt pure fear of losing all contact with Lisa once more, it generated real fear that her only daughter would leave her out of her life. But then she recognized that her mother had shot the arrow right on target.

Lisa was going to hate her if she took Jungkook away from her, even if it was just something of the moment. Preeda was convinced they weren't going to last. Lisa had better options and that Kun boy was perfect, they were still good friends and that could escalate. But now, after the things she did, she feared that Lisa's usual antics and her playful hostility would turn into real hatred.

What if the next time instead of making her life impossible to get her way, Lisa just left? 

Her heart tightened in her chest painfully because the idea of ​​her daughter truly hating her was horrible.

She could accept that Lisa was angry with her and her angry ways, she could even find pleasure in her meaningless arguments, but she could never accept to earn her hatred.

It had been painful enough to hear her tell her that she didn't want to share any of her life with her. That is why since that happened she had remained open to any word that Lisa said about her career, although she had not shared much.

(a/n: and whose fault is that?)

"What if he stays for long?" She asked in a choked voice, after taking a long, thoughtful drink.

"Isn't it better? Or would you prefer your daughter suffering from heartbreak?"

Did she think she was a psychopath?

"Of course not, I-"

Grandma cut her off, sliding her fingers down the back of a purring Leo who had just leaned in beside her. "I've seen the way he looks at Lisa, Preeda," she vocalized what Preeda had also noticed even though she had refused to accept that it was true. "That man will suffer ten times more than Lisa if he loses her and that's exactly the same way your husband looked at you when you both started dating"

Preeda feared so.

If she wasn't so upset, she would admit that Jungkook's eyes shone with love when he looked at her daughter. That boy was whipped to the bone and didn't even seem to care, he was kind of mesmerized by Lisa.

He seemed to adore her.

And Lisa deserved that.

But it was not the same.

"But my husband-"

"It's rich," the older woman finished for her, rolling her eyes at her. "You married him for that"
