The next morning...

The sun was already high when Jungkook opened his eyes. He actually fell asleep in his study room after dealing with that man he was supposed to meet.

And by the time he stepped on the living room, the butler said that his wife wasn’t awake yet. Causing Jungkook’s brows to knit as he raised his towards the stairs.

Is she still sleeping?

Jungkook was about to move towards the dining room when he stopped. And the next second, he walked towards the stair, thinking that he will just go and check her out.

However, as soon as he opened the door, what appeared before his eyes made him leaped like flash towards the girl who just came out of the bathroom and was about to fall.

Thankfully, Jungkook manage to catch her in the nick of time before she fell on the floor. And as soon he touched her, extreme worry immediately flashed across his eyes the moment he felt that she was too warm.

"Are you alright?" he asked worriedly as he carried her in his arms.

Lisa on the other hand forced her eyes opened the moment she heard Jungkook, but due to the pain of her throbbing head, she couldn’t talk.

Looking at her seemingly in pain, Jungkook started being extremely troubled.

"Are you in pain? Should I bring you to the hospital?" Jungkook then said worriedly. But the moment lisa heard him, she immediate shook her head multiple times.

"I... I’m fine... I’m just having... hangover... it’ll get away if I rest." She said as she squeezed her eyes shut. And upon hearing her words, the intense worry that Jungkook was currently feeling slowly diminished as he heaved a long sigh of relief before he gently laid her back to bed.

However, as soon as he put her down and watched her still looking like she’s in intense pain, Jungkook’s worry intensified again.

He then slipped his hand in his pocket and brought out his phone. He dialed jimin’s number hastily and when the call connected, Jungkook immediately ordered him to call a doctor.

However, the next moment, someone knocked on the door before it opened and jimin entered.

"What’s wrong?" he asked.

"Is the doctor coming?" Jungkook asked anxiously when lisa who was burying her face on the pillow talked.

"Jungkook... I don’t need a doctor... this is just a headache." She said, causing the two men to shut their mouths.

Realizing that lisa was having a hangover, jimin looked at Jungkook to tell him it’s alright when he almost burst out of laughter. It was because Jungkook was wearing a face of a mother who’s extremely worried over his child’s cold.

Hey... why are you looking like that? She’s just having a hangover for heaven’s sake, it’s not like she’s about to die okay?

Jimin could only shake his head as he looked at him. The horrifying look of him just hours ago was now nowhere to be seen. As if he was a completely different person from last night.

He turned into a terrified puppy again... puffy!

"You don’t have to get worried so much---"

"Are you saying, I’ll just watch her like that?" Jungkook’s voice suddenly turned cold as he gazed at him sharply. Causing jimin to just scratch his neck.

"Err... come... I know some remedy to help her." Jimin then said and dragged him out of the room.

As soon as jimin and Jungkook left the room, jimin started talking like a wise old man.

"Look, Jungkook... It’d be shameful to get hospitalized just because of a hangover okay? And she’s a lady, do you want her to be shamed?" he said and as expected, his words were a lethal blow that instantly extinguished Jungkook’s wish to bring her to the hospital.

"Then, tell me... what should I do to ease her pain?" Jungkook then asked with his same anxious voice.

"Calm down, wait... there’s actually some helpful tips I saw before." Jimin replied calmly and Jungkook seemed to felt some sort of relief the moment he heard him.

However, when jimin lifted his phone and started typing the words ’how to nurse a hangover’ in a certain website, Jungkook’s expression began to turn unbelievably cold. As if his sharp gazes were saying that he doesn’t trust whatever that appears in it. Causing jimin to look at him warily.

Err... what’s with those ’I don’t trust anything that comes from the internet’ look? Wait... don’t tell me he’s thinking about that ***novel case?

"Look Jungkook, this site is reliable ok---"

Not letting jimin to finish his statement, Jungkook just spoke with a terrifyingly firm voice.

"Call a doctor to come, now." He said and big sweat drops just appeared above jimin’s head.

"You wanted a doctor to come here and nurse her? Did you forget that you just sent Rica, the only woman doctor you have in your disposal to America yesterday? Do you want me to call a male doctor to nurse her? Do you want another man to touch her?" Jimin then replied with a proud look as though telling him to just calm down and listen to his golden advice. And as expected, Jungkook immediately succumbed to jimin’s trap.

However, the next second, he snatched jimin’s cellphone and dialed the number of the best doctor he has, old doctor Sou.

And the moment the call connected Jungkook immediately talked like a panicking little kid.

"Tell me, what’s the cure for hangover?" he asked firmly without even saying hello first. Causing the old doctor in the other side of the phone to immediately reply with straightened spine.

"I’m sorry young master but there is no clinically proven way to cure it---"

"What do you mean?" Jungy’s aura turned unbelievably dark the moment he heard the doctor’s statement that made jimin just began to have series of invisible sweat drops falling in his forehead.

"I mean there’s no magic pill to make it go away, but there are ways to ease the pain." The doctor answered making Jungkook’s dark aura to disappear in existence and he asked again.

"Tell me... right away." He said and as the doctor kept talking, Jungkook just nodded and as soon as the call ended, he looked at jimjn and ordered him to get a painkiller to ease his wife’s headache.

"Yeah, yeah... I’m going, stop panicking like an old hag will you?" Jimin just said before he finally left. Jungkook on the other hand hastily went to the kitchen and took a jag of water.

Thinking about the doctor’s advice about keeping her hydrated, Jungkook quietly poured a water in a glass before he approached the girl on the bed.

He stood there holding the glass of water with both of his hands as he stared at his wife’s face. That moment, she was still creasing her brows in pain. And the sight of her in that state just made Jungkook froze for a moment as he looked painfully anxious like a troubled little child, as if the only thing that was missing was for his eyes to welled with tears.

Until he finally managed to talk.

"Y-you have to drink water." He said as he bended his body towards her. However, the girl didn’t respond causing him to turned even more worried. He stretched out his hand and landed his palm gently in her forehead. She was still a bit warm but knowing that her temperature didn’t rose made he felt relieved.

The man then squatted as he began to talk again in an extremely hesitant way. It was because he didn’t want to disturb her rest, but as he thinks about the doctor’s advice, he could only force himself to touch her shoulder anxiously as ever.

"Lisa..." he called her name unconsciously but the girl who was feeling awful slowly forced her eyes opened the moment she heard someone who called her name.

D-did I just heard jungkook’s voice calling my name? He’s calling my name? Ahh... my head is throbbing... was that just my hallucination?
