HAPPY READING

















It was afternoon and Jungkook was busy working on documents in his office when the scent of tea drifted into his nose. He knew someone had come in but he was focusing on something else so he didn't pay much attention.

After a while, he looked up, glancing at the cup of tea that Jisung had placed quietly before leaving then he put his pen down on the table and leaned back in his chair. He picked up the cup of tea and walked into the balcony, deciding to take a short break.

Because of the incoming party, the garden was filled with a lot of people busying around. He looked around the garden, searching for his wife.

He found her soon enough at a corner of the garden but she was not alone. She was with a black-haired child-Soobin.

'They're really friendly with each other.'

He muttered to himself, frowning slightly. Looking at it objectively, their relationship was one where they could never get too close to each other.

He was a little worried about her taking Soobin to the garden party because a considerable amount of people would be suspicious about her intentions.

He considered telling her about his thoughts but shoved that idea away. She would know at least that much, she wasn't a foolish woman.

Although it was interesting that Soobin was getting along with her quite well. He wasn't a very sociable boy but within a few weeks, he was made into an obedient puppy.

Even his butler Jisung was the same. 'Milady', 'Milady', was all he could say.

She seemed to have the amazing ability to turn people to her side. Even though many people liking her was definitely much better than their being her enemy, for some reason, he felt displeased inside.

'What are they doing?'

For a while now, the both of them had been crouched low and their heads were facing each other. He couldn't see what they were doing and he couldn't see their faces properly because he was too far away.

'What the heck are those two doing?'

He grumbled inwardly.

'Without me.'

The last words were what was truly in his heart but because he was so childish, he couldn't even bear to say it to himself.


***


Lisa and Soobin were so engrossed in watching the amusing baby fox that they weren't paying much attention to anything else. The big-eared yellow fox had awkward steps, toddling as it walked.

Whenever it tried to escape from between the two of them, it was gently blocked with one hand. It didn't take long for it to give up on escaping, sit down and begin chasing its tail.

[He's a rare mild and gentle guy for a fox. He'll be easy to tame]

This was the common remark that the experienced breeders, which Rosé sent to help, made after looking at the fox.

"Did you decide on a name, Soobin?"

"Lisa, is...is it really okay for me to name it?"

"Of course. I'll be happy if you name it."

After Lisa asked him to give the fox a name a few days ago, he'd worried about it for a while and rummaged through all sorts of dictionaries while his studying took a back seat.
