The world was still and silent there was irresistible magic in his voice.

Even if his proposal remained ever unromantic and exceedingly sloppy, Lisa was caught as a warmth surged in her mind's eyes, realizing for the first time then that her heart could beat so powerfully and vigorously.

She finally understood what a heartthrob and butterflies in the stomach meant as well.

Still, she felt conflicted was he proposing for her, or for their son?

He never once said that he liked her, even if everything he did pointed towards that reason.

Taking a deep breath, she asked calmly, "Jungkook, do you really want to marry me that badly?"

"What other reason would there be?" he asked in return, raising a brow.

Even if he had host him memories, he had to admit that he immediately had the thought of marrying her the first time he met her.

Amnesia is just a loss of memories it does not mean replacing a person of affection.

He was convinced that she was who he cherished most before losing his memories.

Meanwhile, Lisa's fingers tightened over her knees.

The more he looked at her longingly, the wider the scar in her heart would be torn apart and bloody.

Perhaps seeing the struggling look on her face, Jungkook's eyes darkened a little.

Lisa felt a little hurt when she saw him like that, as if unwilling to see the fire in his eyes dim.

"Yo-your proposal is sloppy", she said, "You didn't even get a diamond ring"

He quickly took off his seat belt, ready to get off, "I'll get one".

"Come back" Lisa caught him, unable to decide if she wanted to laugh or cry.

He was being a little too efficient.

****

Lisa never acted randomly.

The eyes never lie Jungkook really wanted to marry her, but he had lost his memories.

Even if she agreed and married him, what If he regained his memories one day?

When the time comes, would he still be annoying her at every moment like today, or regret marrying her?

Moreover, neither of them knew a thing about what happened four years ago. It was a tremendous gap, and with emotions being a fragile thing, everything would splinter in an argument without hope of recovery.

Lisa did not want to gamble.

She did not have the guts to gamble.

Even so, she could not resolves herself to refuse his hopeful look.

What should she do?

Although she was biting her lips and stammering for a long time, she still could not give a definitive.

Jungkook sighed softly and offered, "I'll give you time to think about it"

She instantly sighed in relief, only for him to add, "One minute, that is"

"Then I refuse"

"Is it that hard for you to marry me?" Jungkook sounded at once annoyed and helpless.

How many women could not wait to marry him and become a part of the Jeon family?

Somehow, this woman didn't care.
