When lisa was walking down the stairs, her eyes instantly fell into the rose that was already put in a plain black vase on top of the table. Its view was so beautiful, a single red rose in the middle of a large dull and black gray sofa was looking so outrageously catchy. Looking at it, lisa smiled pleasantly, feeling extremely wowed.

She then walked towards the table and stared at the rose while the masked man was quietly watching her across the table.

"It’s pretty," she said and Jungkook just agreed with her with a nod.

"I’m glad you liked it. I’m actually getting nervous just now, afraid that you might have thrown it away. Haha." Lisa’s voice was accompanied with a soft chuckle. Part of her words was obviously, a joke, but Jungkook’s response made her partly, speechless.

"I won’t throw it," he said. His voice, serious and firm.

Lisa doesn’t know what to say. Does this person doesn’t know how to deal with jokes as well?

She could only clear her throat then smiled at him while thinking deeply about something she should say.

"Uhm... thanks. But is this okay with you? I mean, putting a flower here."

"Is there a problem putting it there?"

"Huh? Uhm... no, nothing... but I thought you don’t like colorful things... that’s... why." Lisa almost couldn’t answer him properly. She spoke hesitantly.

And when her statement was followed by a long silence, lisa could only look at him and wait for his response, anxiously.

Until finally, he opened his mouth. "As long as you like them, its fine with me."

Lisa blinked three times. She was shocked. She wasn’t prepared to hear those kind of words suddenly coming
from this man of all people. It was the first time she heard words like those coming from his mouth. What’s going on? Is he aware that his statement is somewhat flirty? When did this person who’s uninterested in human beings learned to spew such cheesy pick up line?

"Anyway, your personal study room is done." He continued as he stands. Lisa haven’t even recovered from the shock yet and what? M-my personal study room?

Lisa’s eyes turned wide as she slowly followed him towards another room just right after his restricted place.

And the moment he opened the door, a spacious room with lots of books appeared in front of her. The room looks comfortable and it seems like everything she needed was already there, even computers and shelves were already arranged in a really convenient style. Lisa was stunned. She looked at Jungkook with a really bewildered face.

"When did you..." she uttered.

"Few hours ago."

"Eh?" She can’t believe it but she realized this wouldn’t really be that hard for someone like him to do at all. Lisa was amazed she almost want to cry. "Thank you," she uttered sincerely.

Hearing a word of thanks from her, Jungkook looked at her. "You still haven’t asked me anything at all. You haven’t even used that card I gave you."

Hearing the words, he said, lisa was silenced. For some reason, the way he said it seemed sad, and she didn’t know what to respond. She wanted to tell him that she doesn’t need anything, that her brother’s safety was the only thing she needs, and it’s all what she was paying for. She wanted to say that him being so good to her was enough.

However, she didn’t speak.

And seeing her unusual silence, Jungkook just landed his hand in her head.
