Jungkook threw the phone and Lisa caught it.
The screen showed a document, listing clearly everyday detail about Eunha since her childhood until present, and actually included her number of lovers too.
She was now in Ocean city, and the address was so specific that it even included the avenue, the alley, and the room number.
Lisa had been scowling, but was all smiles once she saw the address, her eyes sparkling as she watched him, "That's very impressive, Jungkook"
She was full of a little lady's worshipfulness towards a man.
Now she is smiling at him!
Did she think he would forgive her just like that?
Did she think he would forgive her just like that?
Dream on!
Jungkook snorted coldly and turned away coldly and impassively
Huh
Lisa could not quite understand why he was acting like that.
Didn't he already talk to her just now? Being on speaking terms meant he wasn't angry, right?
Why was he being angry now?
She felt a pain in her head just then.
That was when the little one scurried over and whispered into her ear. "Mommy! Daddy wants you to sweet-talk him!"
If Daddy was angry, then he wouldn't kiss-kiss with Mommy.
And he wouldn't have a little sister.
That wouldn't do. Daddy mustn't fight with Mommy!"
Sweet talking again....
Lisa suddenly grew a conscience then, and realized that she did not really respond to his declaration.
She was afraid, however, because this man wasn't being angry like he usually was.
But her also did say that he would her everyone except her.
"Are....Are you angry?" Lisa asked gingerly, clearing her throat.
Silence.
"Don't be angry, okay?"
More silence.
"Well....thanks for giving me Eunha's address. I'm super thankful!"
Silence mode!
Tension could be felt whenever Jungkook kept his silence or stayed impassive, to the point that it became stressful.
Lisa did all she could to smile, wrap her hands around his arm and tenderly cooed, "Don't be angry. It hurts your health anyway, so spear me...."
Jungkook turned slightly to glance at her with the corner of his eye before snorting coldly again.
Tsundere, the high and mighty kind
"...."
What was he trying to communicate? Could he say something and stop snorting?
Lisa promptly let go of her arm and sighed, "So you're not going to let this go?"
Jungkook looked up and stared at her with a look that said 'what-do-you-think'
Fine. It's alright if he wouldn't let this go since she did all she could anyway.
Standing and sighing, she said, "Alright, I can't do anything if that's what you want"
With those words, she turned and led the little one, "Let's go. You must be hungry, I'll cook for you something"
"LISA!"
She turned and look at him blankly. "What?"
"Come here!" He gritted his teeth.
"If you're not going to forgive me, aren't I going to be beaten up going to you?"
"....You come here" He had lost all patience.
Lisa quickly went to him, and he pulled her into his arms despite his dark look, his voice suddenly becoming quiet and meek. "Am I really not as important as my son?"
That wronged look on his face stabbed into Lisa's softest spot, and she felt faint heartache.
What should she do....?
She suddenly felt an impulse to press him into her own bosom and tousle his short hair as furiously as she could.
Her heart overflowing.
Jungkook looked even more wronged when she said nothing in return, his dark obsidian eyes glimmering miserably.
In that very moment, he looked no different from a little puppy unable to find his mommy.
"You're very important" Lisa said as if compelled to say so.
Still, Jungkook's eyes immediately regained warmth and light, his constant ice-cold demeanor crumbling utterly.
Now, he resembled a boy yearning for love.
Lisa suddenly remembered the Jeon Family and his past which he never let on to others, and her heart softened unreasonably even more.
She slowly extended her arms and embraced him, putting her ears lightly on his strong chest.
She could feel a beating there; rumbling, powerful, and rhythmic.
Keeping her wrapped in his arms while his eyes softened a little, Jungkook asked, "How important?"
Lisa bite her lips. "Just....very important"
In truth, there was no definite position for Jungkook in her heart.
Because....he had really bought her much pain.
But that pain was slowly and silently healing in her time with him.
There were times when she thought she was being low and hated herself for it.
She wanted to run, but Jungkook's fiery passionate feelings kept her between a rock and a hard place, giving her no place to hide.
And she was unable to hide too.
"Am I important enough that you would marry me?"
Jungkook freed her and looked at her hopefully.
Lisa had never dared to look him in the eyes since his gaze only over intended to burn her to ash.
But just as she tried to turn and escape, Jungkook held her face with both hands, "Look at me"
There was a command that must not be refused even in his calm voice.
Lisa could only force herself to look at him.
"Do you want to marry me?" He repeated.
"I've....never thought it now"
"Then think about it now"
She felt a little helpless. "Jungkook you can't force me like this"
She was serious towards everything especially relationships.
Love means love, and no means no
Even so, she was conflicted and drew a blur when it comes to him.
Moreover, she would never agree without a definite answer in her heart.
And yet, he would feel sad if she refused.
Nonetheless, after a long moment passed without any answer from her, Jungkook let of her, "I understand"
Lisa discreetly breathed a sigh of relief, "Then....are you angry?"
His face was inscrutable; "No"
Then why did she feel like he was even angrier now?
Either way, he kept quiet, and there was now silence.
He sat down with his legs folded, his eyes leveled at some unknown spot, looking just like a statue in his silence.
Slightly breathless. Lisa left him and went to kitchen to cook.
Then, Jungkook suddenly clutched his head in pain, his brow tightening and his lips pursing in slight anguish.
He took out a small bottle from pocket, opened the cover and was about to take a pile, when the little one dashed to kitchen and yelled like there's no tomorrow, "Oh my god, Mommy! Daddy is going to kill himself! Hurry!"
Crash.
Lisa sprinted out and ran to Jungkook, snatched away the bottle of pills and the one on his hand before dumping everything into trash can.
After that, she fired away like a gatling gun in her irrepressible rage. "Jungkook, I didn't say I won't marry you! Did you have to kill yourself for that? What else do you know aside from threatening me again and again? I hate you the most! The most! I'm telling you, I'm going to leave you with our son and marry someone else right away if you die, so that you won't rest in peace!"
So that he would become so infuriated that his coffin wouldn't close.
Jungkook only stared at his empty palm even as she ranted away, but his eyes turned as cold as ice at the last part. "You dare?!"
