W-what’s going on? Is this another surprise attack?

Lisa wanted to think he’s just kidding but knowing this man, he will never say words he didn’t mean. She knew he couldn’t even handle a joke, making it impossible for him to even joke around.

Then what is he trying to make me do? Did he really think I’m going to beat him? Seriously?

Thinking about it, Lisa was lost for words. And while she was struggling to think properly, the man just sat beside her quietly as if he was a cute little kid waiting for his punishment.

His quiet stone cold demeanor and his almost unreal visual made him a semblance of a perfect life sized figurine.

Who on earth would beat a man like this?

Looking at him that moment almost couldn’t stop lisa’s urge to just squeeze him tenderly. She didn’t know why but every time he acts like that, he seemed to completely switched from a cold lifeless stone into an adorable soft beast in her eyes.

Thankfully, Lisa managed to suppress herself since her dearest brain finally started working at its fullest. Even turning her instantly into mission mode again.

Truth was that,

Lisa was puzzled and she still couldn’t believe it at all. She still couldn’t help but ask herself why.

However, the fact that he actually asked her to go ahead and beat him made her find a certain perfect opportunity to execute another step whether he was serious about it or not.

At that very moment, the first step that crossed her mind was...

’Step #15; be bold’

As stated by Jennie the great, in the science of seduction, although not at all times, boldness is greatly needed. She said that there are times that she has to take risk and bet for herself and see what will happen.

Thus, at that moment, lisa decided to do something in a higher level and more challenging. And so without wasting time, she immediately began.

Lisa breathed deep as she looked intently at the man beside her.

"Okay then, consider this your punishment for upsetting me." She said, looking like a lady general preparing to reprimand her delinquent soldier, while the man just calmly uttered a single sound, as if what she’s about to do to him was just some playful pinching. "Mm."

Looking at his usual collected and serene self, lisa then stood vigorously as if she seriously want to beat him for real while Jungkook just remained sitting on the couch, motionless.

"Close your eyes." She said as she stretches her arms.

And like an obedient kid, Jungkook then quietly closed his eyes as he remained unmoved like stone. A sight which almost made lisa burst out and just hug him tight. At the same time , looking at him that moment made her thought that she can’t possibly hit this man of all people. However, because of her mission, she has to punish him.

Thus, after she stared at him for quite a while, she finally made the most awaited move.

She raised her fist and she started counting.

"One... two... two and a half... three!"

The moment the last number came out of her mouth, lisa’s hand immediately landed on his shoulder, softly and...

A kiss landed on his lips.

As soon as her lips gently landed on his, the world stood still as if time no longer exist.

Lisa’s brain instantly created a spark powerful enough to start a fire that instantly spread throughout her entire being. The unexpected magic caught her off guard. She didn’t expect that the moment their lips met, she will feel something completely outrageous. That moment, she felt as though a deadly meteor fell causing an earth-wide blackout, turning the world entirely dark but at the same time revealing the billion stars in the sky at their brightest ever.

His unbelievably warm lips knocked her entirely senseless, evaporating every thought in her head. Causing her supposed to be just a second peck on the lips ended up lasting for five seconds before she finally snapped and pulled back as her heart was fluttering wildly as ever.

As soon as she pulled back, their eyes meet deeply like never before.

Then, a long deafening silence went by and they just stared at each other with no words being spoken at all.

Until at last, lisa opened her mouth.

"We-welcome home...

I-I-I’ll go prepare dinner," she said hastily with a wavering voice as her face turned entirely red before she walked away as fast as she could.

Watching her disappearing silhouette, the masked man remained motionless, dazed and speechless. His scary aura and unimaginable coldness were nowhere to be found as if it disappeared entirely into existence the moment she kissed him. As if the kiss just obliterated every sign of life he’s usually emitting. As if the kiss was a curse officially turning him into a real breathing stone.

"Oh my god! Th-that was the beating she’s talking about? Ah! My pure innocent eyes have been tainted. When did you two became this sweet?"

"Hey. Are you listening to me?" Jimin’s loud voice were akin to an annoyingly loud alarm clock waking him up in his deep sleep. Causing the stone finally moved and he stood as he started loosening his tie.

And without words, as if he didn’t hear a thing, the masked man walked towards the stairs. He went straight into his study room and as soon as he closed the door, he leaned into it for a long time before he walked towards the bathroom. He opened the shower without removing his shirt and he stood there quietly while the water flowed nonstop into his head.

Meanwhile, the girl in the kitchen was still struggling to calm herself. Even though she thought she prepared herself enough, she still felt as though she was entirely unprepared. She just didn’t expect it to felt that way. It was all beyond her expectation. She didn’t know that that single kiss could even shut down her entire consciousness against her will.

It was just a brief simple kiss, filled with inexperience and innocence, yet it caused an unstoppable wildfire inside her chest, a wildfire she felt that no one could ever extinguished. She felt as though that kiss which was originally a part of her mission will forever be ingrained within her, a memory that will never be forgotten for the rest of her life.
