"Easy... just let her beat you and it’s over."

Hearing Jimin’s advice, Jungkook shrugged Jimin’s hand off his shoulder.

"I can’t wake her up now. We still need to go back right away," he said and Jimin could only tug his hair, showing his extreme disappointment.

Damn it! What a bad timing.

"Then just let her beat you when we’re officially back, okay?" Jimin obviously sounds like he just wanted to see him being beaten by his wife so he just replied him a cold "Shut up" as he walked towards the entrance.

Some moments later, the door of the bedroom was pushed open gently and silently.

Footsteps then drew closer and Jungkook sat at the side of the bed as the yellow light from the bedside lamp lit the room softly.

Jungkook stared at the sleeping girl with a book in her hand for a while before he slowly took the book away and put it on the table.

For some unknown reason, looking at her peaceful angel-like feature, Jungkook suddenly felt strangely comforted. As if she was an alluring oasis in the middle of a vast dry land.

He watched her quietly like that for a long time until he reflexively started caressing her soft cheek gently as ever.

Shortly after, Jungkook was stunned finding himself touching her face. And he was about to pull back when lisa  suddenly reached out her hand causing Jungkook to froze as if he was a thief caught red-handed. Lisa immediately caught his hand with her eyes closed then she hugged it as if his hand was some teddy bear. At that very moment, he remained thunder stricken while the girl just continued sleeping soundly without letting go of his hand.

Jungkook didn’t move an inch after that. He can’t wake her up and he needed to leave as soon as possible. However, he didn’t know how to remove his hand without her waking up.

Meanwhile, jimin sent Jungkook a message. They’re running out of time and they needed to leave now. However, what Jungkook replied to him made him looked at it twice with widened eyes. "Bring me teddy bear."

"Huh?! Teddy bear?! Why?" Jimin’s loud voice echoed in the quiet large sofa. But he soon somehow understood what was going on.

"Suho, find a teddy bear, fast. Go to the maids’ house, they might have one there." Suho instantly disappeared and after some moments, a small teddy dear was now on his hand.

Jimin took it and he immediately ran upstairs. Upon opening the door of their room gently, his eyes bulge out when he saw Jungkook in an awkward position as the girl was hugging his hand. He walked quietly beside Jungkook, trying his very best to not make any noise. Jimin was aware that the moment they awakened her, they might not leave the house in time anymore.

Thus, as if they were elite partners who’re in a process of defusing a bomb, Jungkook started pulling his hand from her grasp while jimin was replacing it with a bear. However, midway along the process, Lisa’s brows knitted, causing the two guys to immediately halted and held their breaths. They stood still motionless, as if they instantly turned into perfect figures made of stone for a long while until the girl went back to her deep sleep again.

The moment the girl fell deeply asleep again, jimin signaled Jungkook to continue removing his hand and after a short while, they finally succeeded. However, just right after Jungkook stood, Lisa unexpectedly moved and out of nowhere, jimin suddenly pulled Jungkook down, signaling him to immediately hide. With confused face, Jungkook didn’t have a choice but to follow the guy who’s pulling him, thus the two ended up lying down on the floor, as though they were soldiers hiding from their enemies. Jimin was covering his mouth, looking like a child who was desperately trying to suppress his laughter, while Jungkook was like a confused stone, looking as though he was wondering what the hell are they doing and what the hell is going on.

A second after that, they heard her moaned. Then the two went completely frozen when the light was turned off.

Damn! She’s awake!

Thankfully, she seemed to be half-awake when she turned the light off and she returned to sleep right away. The moment they realize she’s asleep, the two carefully walked out of the room like ninjas.

And as soon as they reached the sofa, the two breathed so deep as if they just came from a place with no oxygen.

The experience was one hell of a kind that the two of them doesn’t know how to react. They’ve never been in a situation like this before.

Holy sh*t! That was extreme.

Jimin soon burst out as soon as they were out of the house that he even teared up and rolled on the ground. Jungkook on the other hand just looked back at the house. He stood there quietly for a moment before walking back to the car.

Lisa woke up suspicious the next morning.

She was staring at the book on the table she was just holding last night. Then, her eyes fell towards the small white teddy bear on her bed. She was still half-asleep but by the time she remembered her dream last night, that Jungkook was caressing her cheek as she fell asleep on his arms, she got up instantly and ran towards the door.

Her hair was messy as she quickly walked down the stairs. She looked around but she saw no one. She then walked towards the kitchen and thankfully, Mr. Gou was there preparing her meal.

"Mr. Gou, did Jungkook came home?" she asked, surprising the butler slightly.

"He did arrive late at night young miss. How did you know?" he replied with a smile on his face. Lisa’s eyes immediately sparkled as soon as she heard he arrived.

"Where’s he?" she asked, sounding excited.

Looking at her brightened spirit, the old man felt sorry as he speaks. "He already left, young miss."

Lisa was silenced. She didn’t know why but this time she really felt so damn upset. She sat on the chair and landed her head on the table as if some powerful force just sucked all her energy.

Why did he leave without even waking me up?

That moment, realization finally dawned on her, that she’s being like this because she’s been missing him too much. She wanted to see him so bad.

"Please don’t feel sad young miss. The young master dropped by last night just to give you this." Lisa immediately raised her head upon hearing the old man’s words. Her mouth hanged opened as she stared at the cellphone he’s giving her. "The young master said that if you wanted to contact him, you’ll only use this phone. His number is already there."

Lisa was looking at it with her eyes filled with disbelief. Moments later, he accepted it and she quietly opened it. And when she saw a single phone number saved in it, lisa finally smiled and she hugged the old man briefly before walking away, leaving the old butler smiling happily for her.

...

At the quiet gazebo, Lisa was thinking deep. She realized that Jungkook surely have some not-so-simple reasons for all of this and she felt bad for feeling upset towards him. However, she comforted herself right away, telling herself that feeling upset was normal. And it looks like the result of her showing how upset she was, was actually a good thing. She was happy to know that Jungkook was actually looking out for her even though he’s not beside her.

Thinking about it, she was motivated to work even harder. She breathed deeply and her eyes started to burn passionately.

However, as time goes by, Lisa’s eyes were getting narrowed as she stared at the phone on the table. She looks as though she was simulating a certain strategy before starting the war, but it looks like she’s having some trouble.

She was considering the fact that she can’t possibly call him whenever she wants since she doesn’t know where he is at the moment. What if he’s busy or he’s actually at the other side of the globe and it’s already past midnight in the place where he is?

Apart from that, Lisa was also having a hard time choosing which step should she execute first.

However, after minutes of thinking, an excited and meaningful smile finally carved in her face. She looks like she finally found the perfect strategy.
