The room was enveloped with cold silence again. However, the moment jimin noticed Jungkook’s finger, curiosity gleamed in his eyes.

"Anyway Jungkook, what happened to your finger?" he asked mischievously as his gaze was directed into Jungkook’s thumb wrapped with a pink Band-Aid.

That moment, Jungkook just slowly raised his hand and the moment he stared at his thumb, the exact scene where lisa was sucking it popped inside his head. Causing him to just turned red again.

Looking at his reaction, jimin almost couldn’t believe his eyes.

My god! Did he just blush? Seriously? Am I hallucinating?

Jimin shook his head before he looked at him again. He even went and hastily turned all the lights on to see his face. However, when he confirmed what he saw was indeed real, he almost choked himself.

Holy sh*t! This monster is actually blushing!

Jimin was flabbergasted, he never dreamed that one day he will see this guy of all people blushing while looking at his thumb wrapped with pink lovey-dovey Band-Aid. That moment, jimin was too dumbfounded to talk, so he could only bring out his cellphone and took a shot of the man who was still staring at his thumb without saying anything and looking quite dazed.

...

Just after their quiet dinner...

Lisa was staring intently at

Jungkook when the masked man noticed her piercing gaze. He raised his head and looked at her.

The girl was just staring without saying anything, even though she looked like she definitely has something she wanted to say so bad.

"Tell me, what is it," he finally said causing the girl to snap as she blinked. And a second later, she suddenly stood and she quickly moved and sat beside him.

"Jungy, how about I’ll apply as your body guard?" she suddenly asked, with a serious look. Causing the man to fell quite speechless that three dots just appeared invisibly above his head. He didn’t expect her to say something like this.

"I... I will learn, the teacher that will help me grow stronger will come tomorrow morning, right? I’ll definitely become stronger." She continued, looking so determined even though the man wasn’t saying a word.

"You may not believe me but I’m quite good, if I learn more, I’ll definitely beat five men at once," she added and a wild strong will blazed across her alluring eyes.

Looking at her made the masked man felt quite surprised, at the same time, amazed. Even though he knew how brave and strong she was, this is the first time she expressed what she wanted so zealously like this.

So this is her, when she’s worried about me, huh...

That moment, Jungkook couldn’t help but felt amazingly amused. He didn’t know why but the way she worries about him right now made his heart unbelievably warm. He didn’t know how to describe it but he was happy. So happy that he didn’t realize that a smile slowly carved in his face.

"You don’t have to. I won’t let you. I have thousands of men to do that. I agreed to get you a teacher for you to learn how to protect yourself specially when I’m not around, okay?" he said softly and without fading the smile in his face as he lifted his hand and caressed her head gently as ever, as if she was his most precious treasure.

Not knowing that as soon as the girl saw his smile, she went dumbfounded that she couldn’t even understand what he was saying anymore. Her eyes widened and she reflexively covered her mouth as he stared at his thin gorgeous lips carving a smile for the first time ever in front of her.

When Jungkook noticed her being in dazed, the smile in his face faded. And he was about to talk again when lisa’s hands suddenly landed on both of his cheeks.

"Smile again, please." She suddenly said, looking so damn excited, as if she just saw her cute little pet smiled for the first and she wanted to see it again.

"Please, smile again." She pleaded while the man was once again fell completely speechless. More than three invisible dots appeared above his head again as he looked at her as she pleads. Well, it was because Jungkook didn’t realized he just smiled.

The next second, lisa started pinching his cheeks gently as she continued pleading excitedly with stars in her eyes.

However, before Jungkook could even say a thing, Mr. Park came.

"I’m really sorry young miss but the young master has to answer this call at all cost." He said as he reached out the cellphone to the man.

And like an excited little kid being suddenly scolded by her strict mom, lisa slowly let go of Jungkook’s face as she bit her lower lip. Jungkook’s eyes immediately glanced at the cellphone’s screen and when he saw who was the caller, he stood right away as he took the cellphone. He landed his hand in her head quickly before he walked away, leaving her in the dining hall.

When she couldn’t see her husband’s silhouette anymore, lisa’s shoulders fell and she bumped her head on top of the table. She thought she was already quite used with this situation, since this always happens when she’s with him.

However, that moment, lisa was still ecstatic. She was a bit disappointed that she failed to make him smile again but the fact that she made him smile just made her felt a huge achievement. Moreover, she was beyond happy because she finally saw him smile.

Ahh, he looks so cute. A smiling little beast is just so adorable. Wait... did he smile because he was happy when I told him I wanted to be his bodyguard?

...

Later that night, Jungkook was in front of his computer again when jimin who was sitting just behind him broke the silence.

"Anyway Jungkook, are you even aware that you actually smiled at her?" he asked and his question instantly caught the man’s attention.

He turned towards him as he realized what happened hours ago.

"So that’s why she was pleading me to smile again, huh." He said as he averted his gaze and stared at the moon peeking in the large window.

"Hey, is that the only reaction you have? Don’t you know that you never smiled even once for a decade? I repeat, a decade!" Jimin was just trying to make him talk more. However, the man stayed silent. He looked like he was deep in thought again, as though telling him he won’t hear anything more from him. But as usual, jimin won’t just give up.

"And seriously, you’re even blushing now. I can’t believe this. You, blushing over a lovey-dovey little pink Band-Aid was just unbelievable, just so you know."

"Jimin, tell me..." he finally talked again while his gaze was still glued to the moon. "What do you think is going on with me?"

"..."
