SECRET MARRIAGE - Book 1 [LK Adaptation]

177 - 178

Lalisa looked closely and realized that Long suho was carrying two chocolate ice creams in his hands as he rushed towards her. As Long suho neared her, he gave her a cone of chocolate ice cream, "Here..."

Lalisa took the icecream from him and gave him a puzzled look.

Long suho chuckled holding the chocolate ice-cream, "For the start of our new friendship." He smiled.

"Cheers then." Lalisa smiled taking a bite of her ice cream.

Long suho smiled eating his own icecream. "Was that Mr. Jungkook on the phone?" he asked. Lalisa nodded eating her own ice cream, "Yes... Wait a minute, how did you know that his name is Jungkook?"

Long suho gave her a look and chuckled, "I saw your interview. It was easy to guess."

"Beauty with brains huh?" Lalisa teased.

Long suho nodded. "Anyway, I'm excited about your movie. I am sure it's going to be a big hit".

" I hope so too."

"Umm... now that we are friends, can I ask you something?" Lalisa questioned carefully. Long suho nodded.

Taking a deep breath Lalisa asked, "Earlier you said that I am your first friend, what do you mean by that? I know it a bit personal and if you don't want to answer it, then it's fine.."

"Well, I had a friend before but be betrayed me and because of his one lie, many bad things happened to me. " Long suho answered with a sigh. " After that, I didn't believe in other people much. Since then, I never made any friends. So that makes you my first friend, after a very long time."

"Oh!" Lalisa nodded understanding his situation. After all, she was also betrayed by too many people. "Then Long suho you are not going to regret this decision of being my friend. " Lalisa laughed.

Long suho looked at her mesmerizing smile. I hope to be much more than your friend, Lalisa. Long suho wanted to say this, but he held himself back. He didn't want to scare her so soon.

Diverting his mind from that beautiful smile he glanced at the moon again and asked, "You asked me a personal question, so can I ask you a personal question too?"

"Sure."

"I heard how you answered this question in your interview but I really want to know more. What does love mean to you? Do you really love Jungkook that much?"

Lalisa smiled, "I do. I really love him very much. He's my life for me. It's like if I am heart then he would be my heartbeat. It's like I am the destination and he is my journey. You know suho, I might sound cheesy or as if I am repeating some movie lines but these are what I feel when I am with him. Being with him makes me feel complete. "

Long suho remained silent. Watching her confessing her love for that guy on television was a different matter and hearing that same thing personally was on a whole different level. "So what if someone tries to come between you or put a discord between you both? What would you do?"

Lalisa laughed at his question, "Nothing like that is ever going to happen between us. But still, I will answer your question. First of all, in any relationship trust is very important. If you love that person then you would trust him unconditionally. So, I do not think that there will be an opportunity for someone to create any discord between us."

"You love him that much?" Long suho asked.

"More than my life."

"And if..." Long suho hesitated, " What if there is someone who loves you very much and tries to take you away from him, forcefully, then? " Hearing this question Lalisa glanced at Long suho, "That a very weird question Long suho," she commented. "Why are you asking this? Are you that person, Long suho? Are you here to kidnap me and take me away forcefully from my husb - I mean Jungkook, my boyfriend? " she questioned seriously.
