Second Chance

82.Do you hate this?

"Why did you come back so late?"

Lisa had been waiting for Jungkook to ask her the question. From the moment she step foot inside, she had already guessed from his deathly glare.

"Why I came back so late?"

She arch a brow while trying to conceal her laughter. He looked like a little boy who's mother just tried to abandon him.

Seeing her answer him with a question, Jungkook pucker his bottom lip with a frown. Was she afraid to answer him truthfully?

Thinking again, he nod his head once. He wanted to know why.

"Mm."

Lisa touch her chin and acted like she was thinking of what to say.

"My employees weren't able to get the new design I assigned started by tonight, so I made them go home early. Naturally, I stayed behind and worked on it. I just didn't realize that once I finished halfway through, the sky outside was already very dark."

She shrug her shoulders, and continued to eat. If she keeps looking at the man, she would soon die from holding in her laugh.

"....."

Looking at Lisa, he could tell she was telling the truth.

He sighed in relief inside. So she wasn't out with Inu but at work.

Jungkook nod his head in understanding. He felt like something heavy was lifted from his chest.

Glancing back up to look at Jungkook, a faint smile cross her lips. He is her boyfriend, so she didn't need to hide anything from him. Of course, if he asks then she'll tell, if he doesn't then she won't.

After they finished eating, the both of them decided to watch a movie. Staying up later than usual was fine, they didn't have work the next day.

As they watched an action movie, they didn't cuddle but sat next to each other.

Half way through the movie, Lisa couldn't help but interrupt the peaceful moment between them.

Turning her head to look at him, she hesitated, but summoned all her courage.

"Jungkook."

"Mm."

Jungkook answered without taking his eyes from the tv. His attention was on the movie.

"Jungkook."

"Mm?"

This time, he turn his head and stare back at her.

Meeting his dark ink like eyes, Lisa blush and avert her eyes down, however she blush even more when her eyes landed on his naked upper body.

'Oh god! How could I forget that he's shirtless?!!'

Taking a big gulp, she close her eyes to steady her shaking heart. Looking back up, she takes a deep breath.

"Can we sort things out?"

Jungkook raise a brow in puzzlement. He stare at her as if telling her to continue.

Seeing this, Lisa couldn't help but sigh at this noble king.

"I meant, can we sort out things between us?"

She said with one index finger pointing to him then to her.

Jungkook didn't say a word expect make another "mm" sound.

"I think we should think this thoroughly. It's still not too late if you want to back out on this relationship. I will understand."

"....."

Listening to Lisa's words, Jungkook wanted to knock on the woman's head and have it open, so he could see what she ever thinks about.

It's not too late? Understand? Did he sound like he was joking?

His eyes dimmed, making him look dangerous and dejected.

"I'm serious."

Jungkook's deep and low voice triggered Lisa's heart to pound faster and faster. He sounded very serious. Extremely serious.

Before she can even say another word, she yelp in surprise.

"Ahh-!" action

Jungkook without warning had grab her by the waist and hug her close to him.

Lisa place both her hands on his chest. The touch of his skin felt like she was getting electrocuted, in a good way. 😏

She struggle with blushing cheeks and try to push him away, "Jungkook, let go."

He tighten his hold on her, hugging her as if he wanted to knead her with him. He whisper near her ear.

"Do you hate this?"

His tone of voice was indifferent, but there was a small hint of sadness. Like he was deeply hurt by her words.
