Jungkook suddenly closed his eyes then held the girl’s wrist, stopping her from petting his hair. At that moment, lisa looked stunned, looking as though she just woke up from her warm fuzzy dream.

However, not giving her anymore chance to react, Jungkook abruptly rose.

And the next thing he did made her eyes widened. Jungkook lifted her without any warning and carried her like a princess.

Lisa was shocked, but she sensed the sudden surge of coldness coming from him, she thought she might have had really overdid it this time. His sudden coldness made her thought he might not like the petting she just did. So while holding on to his neck, lisa leaned her head into his shoulder, looking as though the girl on cloud nine just now suddenly fell on the cold ground. For some reason, she suddenly felt sorry. When she wrote these steps on her note, lisa already expected them to not always work one hundred percent and he might even end up disliking some of them. She expected the possibilities, however, now that it actually happened, she didn’t know it actually felt indescribable disheartening.

"I’m sorry," she uttered causing Jungkook to suddenly halt.

"Why are you saying sorry?" he asked with a voice frozen cold. Lisa felt a shiver down her spine as her eyes were locked on his sexy Adam’sapple.

"Be-because..." Lisa’s voice was sad and apologetic and nervous. Jungkook instantly felt her emotions so he breathed deep and he forced himself to suppress his inner darkness.

"B-because I kept petting your head... when you didn’t like it." She continued, and as soon as she heard the reason why she’s suddenly apologizing, Jungkook instantly loosen up and his terrifying aura instantly died down as he started walking again.

"You don’t have to, I don’t hate it." He responded, leaving lisa dumbfounded and mystified to the core. Then why did he suddenly felt really angry about something just now?

"Get the car," he ordered like an absolute dictator. And while lisa was busy brainstorming, Jungkook was thinking deep. He didn’t expect that she actually misunderstood him just now. He even scared her and made her apologized for something that wasn’t her fault at all. And thinking about those, his darkness almost burst out of its cage again as though he was getting really angry on a certain someone, to the point that if lisa wasn’t on his arms at that moment, something unthinkable might already have had happened.

Until they finally entered inside a car. Upon sitting, Jungkook talked right away as though he was in rush.

"To the hospital."

"Eh?" Lisa was surprised, "No need. I can take care of this on my own."

However, her protest didn’t make the man budge this time. He was obviously anxious with her wounds so lisa could only agree with him in the end.

...

City Hospital.

Lisa was on the disguised jimin’s back as they entered the hospital, leaving Jungkook and Jackson in the car waiting for their return. And after a while, she was treated right away like someone very special. And in no time, it finally ended.

She then hopped back to Mr. Park’s back and on their way back to the car, jimin started talking to her.

"Young miss, can I ask you something?" he asked.

"How about we exchange questions? I’ll answer yours and you’ll answer mine."

Speechless with her sudden negotiation, jimin could only chuckle. Not bad.

"Haha, how clever. Okay, as long as you won’t ask about the forbidden."

"I won’t."

"Then, I’ll go first... what do you think about the young master? I mean right now, how do you feel about him?"

The moment lisa heard his question, a short silence went by as her arm around his neck slightly tightened. Causing the disguised jimin to rethink about his question even though an instant disappointed expression carved in his face, as though he was a paparazzi who just missed the perfect chance to get the scope of his supposed to be next epic headline.

"Er... if it’s too hard to answer right now, I’ll just ask you another---,"

"No its fine, I’ll answer it."

Hearing her words, the light of the heavens returned into his face. And in an instant, he turned into a serious looking father who was ready to listen to her beloved daughter’s confession about her precious feelings to his soon to be son in law. He shut his mouth as he waited for the words she’s about to say, intently.

"Hmm... I haven’t thought of it until now actually, but now that I think about it... hmm." Lisa fell silent for another while and then, she continued. "I admit, he still scares me occasionally, but lately I think I’m getting used to him. Of course, he still sends me shivers down my spine but... It’s strange but... I felt like I don’t want to get away from him, that whenever he was being scary like that, I wanted to get even closer to him and just pet him and just embrace him... It’s not like I wanted to change him, I don’t want to. He’s scary but... and of course, I’m wishing he could be softer and warmer too but... when it comes to him being scary, I think I don’t hate that side of him, even though it almost seems like it was the only side he has almost all of the time. And his silence, whenever he’s quiet and all, lately, I think I’m pretty getting used to it as well. It’s strange but at first I thought I can never stand it, but now I think I don’t hate the kind of silence between us after all. Haha. Was that weird?"

"Not at all," he answered right away. Tsk. This girl... You don’t actually have any idea how wonderful you are, are you? Jimin was actually smiling wide as he listens to her sincere, warm and long statement. He even casually walked out of the elevator once they reached the third floor and took the stairs to gain more time to listen to her.

And after his reply, lisa continued talking. "I think all I want to do right now is stay beside him, I guess. And right now, he’s no longer stranger to me. And, I think, the reason why I haven’t felt any regret until now was because it was him. Maybe, no, I’m sure I was able to breathe again because it was him that I’m with right now. I was actually thinking things like, what if it’s not him and someone else that I ended up with, that day? I asked myself that question for countless times, and I could only shake my head, and almost don’t want to even think about it."

"Don’t you think, that’s just what they called fate?" Jimin uttered. He was quite being drawn emotionally by her that he responded to her without realizing. And the moment he realized, he had no choice but to keep going. "Well... Maybe, fate is real, after all... and you’re one among its victim."

"Haha. You think so? I don’t see myself as a victim though. At least as of now."

Somehow, lisa smiled and laughed thinking about the idea of it. If fate was indeed the one responsible, if it is indeed real, then won’t she need to give thanks to the god of fate?

At that same moment, upon hearing the last part of her statement, even though jimin mentioned the word ’victim’ in a good way, his gossiping side made him asked her again. "Why? Did you think, you’ll eventually become a victim in the future?"

Lisa fell silent for a while.

"Hmm... I don’t really know. But, do you think Jungkook will eventually turn me into a victim in the end?"

"Er... is that your question to me?"

"Uhh... No, that question can wait for the near future, I have a much important question right now."

"Okay then, go ahead."
