"Jungkook, are you done already?"

At best, she thought she would see his face late in the evening, but at Jungkook's suggestion to drink tea together even before sunset, Lisa sat opposite him with a mixture of wonder and joy and drank a cup of fragrant tea.

"...... I can't get my hands on work today. I should take a break with a cup of tea."

"Yes, that's a good idea."

Knowing Jungkook who had been busy for a while, Lisa gladly welcomed his break. His face, which had always been neat, was more damaged than before because of old fatigues and thoughts. Have things not been going well these days? His blue eyes were sunk as dark as the deep sea.


"......"

Lisa felt upset and gently put down her teacup. It was said that it was his choice, but it was true that Jungkook was not at ease when she thought about the way Jungkook was entangled in a pile of documents that didn't suit him.

Besides, today, Jungkook seemed to be going through a difficult problem. He had a hardened expression and had artificial gestures. He also had a different attitude towards his daughter, who he thought was always pretty enough to die.

"Jungkook."

"......!"

Lisa got up from her seat and approached him, who was sitting quietly, and carefully pulled his broad shoulders, which looked in need of shelter, and held him in her arms. Jungkook reflexively stopped breathing as a hand gently caressed his hair as if to appease a small beast, and had to feel her sudden body temperature.

"Lisa, what are you doing......"

Lisa put herself down on his lap, then pressed herself against his broad chest. At Jungkook's belated restraint, she lifted her head from his arms, met his eyes, and tilted her head as if asking what the problem was.

Jungkook's mind went into a mess again. Lisa was a kind person, although she sometimes showed a playful side. He tried to think that the touch on his shoulder was simply comforting his busy self, but the affectionate gaze contained in her eyes caught his ankle to merely see it as a simple consolation.

Why is she looking at him like that? Even though he wanted to turn away like he had seen it wrong, the clear shimmer in her shining eyes was her unmistakable love.

"What's the matter? Do you have something to say?"

"No, wait, Lisa......!"

Lisa quickly made a mischievous expression and placed kisses on Jungkook's face with an explicit wet sound, perhaps because Jungkook looked perplexed by the sudden hug. As soon as she did that, he hurriedly stopped her and raised his voice, and a clear laughter burst out of Rachel.

Today, her husband was strange. Lisa felt like a bully who committed bad things because he reacted so much for just a light kiss. His red-colored ears didn't know when it would subside at the glance.

Jungkook, too, sensed that his own body was heated by the unexpected touch, and hid her in his arms, obscuring his foolish self. Jungkook was convinced by her last kiss. Lisa loves him. At that likely guess, Jungkook swallowed a puzzled sigh as to whether he should be delighted.

Lisa's behavior of kissing his cheek as if she were doing it to her lover was very natural. He had heard that even if people were in a political marriage, they sometimes live happily together over time, but he didn't know that the case would be him.

'Does that mean I fall in love with Lisa too?'

He suddenly thought of that, but he soon passed it by lightly. He had no reason to think deeply about his relationship with her because he would go back to where he was anyway, and then everything would come back to its place.

'I'd better get to the point first.'

Whatever Lisa's feelings, Jungkook didn't want to get into trouble with her anymore. Jungkook thought he had to get to his point in a hurry so that he wouldn't be swayed by her any longer.

"Lisa, that...... There are things you make as a hobby."

"...... Magic potions?"

"Yes. That."

Lisa's eyes widened at Jungkook's sudden request for a potion.

"By any chance... Can you make a potion that goes back in time?" Or wake up from a dream or hallucination....."

"What? What are you talking about all of a sudden? I don't know about a hallucination, but if I had been able to make a potion against time, I would have been hailed as a genius in academia right away."

"...... I know. I was just joking."

When she smirked and told him not to say nonsense, Jungkook realized that he, too, had said silly things, and hurriedly turned around.

So what is the current situation?

As he continued, Jungkook's voice stretched helplessly like a boy who lost confidence. Jungkook avoided Lisa's eyes because he thought she was talking about something far from reality. However, when he again felt heat on his face from Lisa's kisses, Jungkook got embarrassed and sworn silently.

"......! Why do you keep doing that?"

"What's wrong with a kiss? Why are you reacting like that, between us?"

"...... I just remembered something urgent, so I'll have to go."

Jungkook jumped and scouted at Lisa's kiss again, but lost what to say when she said that it was natural, so he used a silly excuse to cut it off. Fortunately, Lisa didn't catch him when he stepped out of the door, but she smiled quietly, covering her mouth as if he were cute, looking at his back.
