Hanbin became angry, “That’s the women’s toilet! Who’s going in there?!”

Jungkook took two steps back to put a distance between them. His index finger was placed on his lips motioning to be quiet. She couldn’t even speak.

Footsteps were approaching.

Jungkook tore off his neck tie, turned and leapt up towards the window of the ventilated place and jumped out.

Lisa exclaimed silently, ran to the window and looked down. From the height of the second floor, Jungkook landed on the ground steadily, got up and clapped his hands, and strode up to the mountain bike parked downstairs.

The roar steadily rose then the black and red shadow pulled out from the residual stillness of the air and disappeared from her sight.

Behind her, Hanbin sneaked in and seeing Lisa standing in the restroom, felt relieved. He took a lingering glance at the door of the woman’s toilet and reported to Jiyong, “Sister is all right, just watching the scenery by the window.”

He also glanced out the window and saw nothing but the exhaust smoke that hadn’t yet disappeared from the air, his facial expression was depressed and he pulled Lisa away.

Downstairs, Jiyong drove to the Italian restaurant for dinner. When they looked at the menu, the price was really expensive. Lisa also saw it and turned the menu around, well, as long as they have vegetable salad. Jiyong knew what she was thinking when she looked at the menu and he suddenly felt a bit sour.

He whispered, “Your aunt told me that Lisa likes pasta the most.”

Hanbin looked at his dad for a moment.

The corner of Jiyong's eyes were a little red and he rubbed his eyes to cover it up. “Your aunt can’t go anymore, can’t I let her daughter eat a little spaghetti.”

He called the waiter over and ordered the signature pasta on the menu.

When they were served, Lisa froze and looked up at Jiyong.

Jiyong mouthed in an exaggerated manner, “Eat fast.”

She smiled, nodded, help the fork and rolled the pasta into her mouth. This was her first time eating pasta, but it tasted familiar, like an old friend, bouncing all the along the tip of her tongue.

A woman’s loving face flashed in her head.

Sitting opposite herself, she said tenderly, “Lili, eat fast. After finishing, let’s pick dad up from work.”

Her heart clenched fiercely, as if pierced with a barbed needle, and her tears almost came out.

This body still couldn’t accept memories of her parents.

Lisa clenched her teeth and forcibly interrupted the both familiar and unfamiliar pictures in her head. Hanbin cut up his steak and put a few pieces on her plate, “Sister, this is delicious.”

She understood what he was trying to do and nodded with a smile.

The first class of the second year in the afternoon was physical education.

In the first PE class of the semester, the students heard that the PE teacher had changed and were looking forward to it.

The bell hadn’t rang yet so everyone was free. Eunha didn’t like sports. She bought two creamsicles at the canteen and pulled Lisa to the steps near the basketball court to eat them.

Talking using WeChat: “I hate physical education the most, it’s hot and tiring. I hope all the physical education classes this semester are delayed by the math teacher!”
