Even though the examination can be done with just a few strands of hair, Lisa insisted on doing a blood test. Lisa said that she wanted the results to be completely accurate and Jungkook just nodded quietly in front of her.

On the way out of the gene testing lab, Lisa smiled at Jungkook who still looked tense. But Jungkook still didn't smile back at her.

"When will the results come out?"

"He said tomorrow."

"Can't it be right now? In American movies, this kind of DNA test is usually quick."

Lisa tilted her head in surprise. Apparently movies were different from reality.

"It's not that easy."

"Even if you force them?"

"I've never done anything like that."

Jungkook could have urged the laboratory to see the test results right now. But he did not do that. No, he couldn't do it.

Even though Lisa insisted that they were not related by even 0.1%, Jungkook was still not convinced. Therefore, he didn't want to know the real truth.

"Just watch out if you come to this place yourself tonight and check the results."

"I won't do that."

Lisa warned him in a threatening tone. Jungkook still looked worried, while Lisa didn't look that way at all. Her mom would never betray anyone. But why would her mom send such a message?

"If you were my sister......"

"I wouldn't."

"Listen first. I'm not a super optimist like you."

Hearing Jungkook's unreasonable assumption, Lisa shook her head firmly. However, it seemed like Jungkook ignored her words.

"Alright. Think of me as your younger sister."

"Who said that? No, no."

Jungkook, who seemed to have forgotten that he was the first to make that assumption, wrinkled his forehead. Meanwhile, Lisa laughed with a surprised face at his reaction.

She thought Jungkook was back to the old Jungkook, but the man's face was tense again. Maybe Jungkook would stay like this, until the results of the examination appear.

"That's right. It's impossible. So far, I've been overwhelmed enough taking care of my two younger siblings and one of my uncle's children. I can't afford to take care of a brother like you."

"Yes. I don't need a sister like you either."

Jungkook doesn't need Lisa as his sister, but as his partner. Lalisa Manobal. He needs this woman as his lover.

However, in contrast to his true heart, his words just now sounded very cold in Lisa's ears.

It was a very clear statement to Lisa who couldn't know his heart.

If I were his sister, of course I would be with him sometimes.

If I wasn't, I would probably be completely separated from him.

Lisa knew that she couldn't have any feelings for this man. The crescent moon that was only as big as the tip of a fingernail slowly grew bigger and tonight seemed like it would be a long night for Lisa and Jungkook.

The work at the campus cafeteria looks more relaxed during the holiday season. In fact, Lisa wanted to work busy that day. If she had more time like this, she would have had all kinds of thoughts running through her head like now.
