By the time lisa finally revert back to her usual cheery self, she raised her head and looked at him. And again, she was mesmerized by his seemingly illusionary enchanting eyes. It was just too beautiful that there was no cure for it.

"D-did you disguised your eyes as well?" she asked. But her question seemed to be unclear to him that he just looked at her innocently as if he doesn’t have a clue.

Lisa somehow felt her question was stupid. However, she still asked.

"I mean... are you using contact lens?" she asked again and this time, the man shook his head. That same moment, lisa gasped in disbelief. She once heard that grey eyes were among the rarest eyes color on earth. However, to her, Jungkook’s smokey-silver eyes were still one of a kind that she couldn’t even begin to describe how beautiful it was.

Gosh! How could anyone have such godly gorgeous eyes?

In the middle of her fascination, she finally noticed that he was staring somewhere. Lisa then followed his line of sight and she saw the poor daffodil in her hand. It was pretty crumpled and bent.

"This... this is supposed to be for you but..." she said before she immediately hid it behind her as she smiled at him awkwardly. "I’ll just buy you another one," she added, however, the man instantly reached out his hand.

Lisa was surprised as she looked at him.

"I’ll take it." He said and his beautiful eyes seemed gravely intent to have it that lisa couldn’t do a thing but give him the crumpled flower in her hand.

As soon as he took it, lisa couldn’t help but smile radiantly, as if the gloomy weather a while ago magically turned into a fine bright day the moment he appeared. At that point of time, lisa thought that this was actually the real perfect moment for her to give it to him. Even though her original purpose on giving it to him was actually different.

Upon receiving it, Jungkook then lifted the flower and he scrutinized it for a while before he gazed back at her.

"What’s does this flower means?"

Jungkook’s unexpected question somewhat stunned her. She didn’t expect him to ask. Does this man really don’t know or he’s just trying to make me say it?

"Er..." Davi bit her lip as she looked at him and then at the flower in his hand. As what she learned from her late grandmother, the daffodil actually has few meanings, some of which were ’Regard’, ’Unrequited love’, ’You’re the only one’ and ’The sun is always shining when I’m with you’.

Wait, could it be that he was asking because he’s just making sure which of those meaning is the one I’m trying to convey? How sly.

Thinking about that possibility made lisa struggled a bit. It was because, the original plan in giving him that flower was initially to confuse him. She wasn’t supposed to tell him.

However, now that he actually asked, and because of the unexpected turn of events, lisa could only answer him.

Lisa then stared at him and began to talk.

"What does this flower means?"

"Er... The- the sun is always shining when I’m with you," she finally said. Her answer was what she really felt that moment. To her, Jungkook was like the sun every time the sky turned gray for her. And she just wanted to tell him that. That was why she decided to defer her plan for the mean time.

Truth was that she bought the daffodil for her to use as props in executing the next step.

’Step #20; pique his interest/ leave him wondering’

Jennie advised her to never spill the bundle all at once as if there’s no more tomorrow. She also stated; ’leaving your man wondering just how much you like him or just how much you care will make the show running forward. And as I’ve said, mysteriousness is seductive, don’t just spit it all out mindlessly, leave the person slightly uncertain about the extent of your feelings. You have to keep your alas hidden until the perfect time to strike arrives. But of course, never forget to drop obvious hints from time to time and never stop moving forward.’

Initially, lisa was supposed to execute both step number 19 and 20 when she reaches home, but, the appearance of that person ruined the plan.

Worse was that, step number 19, the art of slipping back unannounced, was obviously executed by Jungkook instead. He appeared out of nowhere and saved her at the time she needed him the most, even acting as her personal superhero. And eventually making her failed herself to execute her mission.

Thinking about it made lisa was imagining a scene where the two of them were having a race and she was about to win but Jungkook suddenly overtaken her. And it was a thought that instantly made her heart burns.

What is this? Jungkook, are you trying to seduce me instead? I’m supposed to be the one doing this to you!

Shortly after that, they finally left and on their way to Gray mansion, lisa was quietly encouraging herself.

No worries. No worries. I’ll just have to redo 19 and 20 again when the right time comes. Just you wait Jungkook, I won’t definitely let you get ahead of me.

Meanwhile, Jungkook was staring at lisa when she suddenly glared at him as though she just had a sudden thirst for his blood. That moment, Jungkook instantly froze. That was the first time she ever seen her glared at him like that. He was painfully confused, at the same time, he suddenly felt a certain strange feeling that was almost close to fear. Fear that he might have made her hated him. Why? Could it be that...

"Do you hate my appearance?"

Jungkook’s voice were somewhat cold and sad and the moment she heard him, lisa couldn’t help but felt perplexed. And she instantly shook her head multiple times.

"H-huh? Of course not. Why should I hate such good looking face?" She immediately answered as she looked at him with confused eyes.

Seeing the sudden change in her expression and her puzzled face convinced him that it must have been some misunderstanding in his part.

"Is it fine with you?"

"Of course is it." Lisa was still puzzled with his questions, however, she then realized that Jungkook must’ve been just trying to consider her feelings about him disguising himself. Thing that somehow made her smile and so she started moving closer to his face.

"Ca-can I touch it?" she asked and without saying a word, Jungkook moved his face closer to her and he let her touched his face.

The girl then started caressing his cheek as if she was trying to feel it whether it was just like human flesh or not. Afterwards, like a curious little girl, she started poking his face all over, not realizing that the man had been stiffened the moment she touched him.
