HAPPY READING














"...Sorry."

She felt like she vaguely heard his voice. Something pointy kept touching her face here and there. It was ticklish but it was also disturbing her sleep so she frowned and swung her hand in the air. Her hand was caught and she felt a pair of lips kissing the back of her hand and fingertips. Lisa opened her heavy-lidded eyes. She blinked a few times, driving away the sleepiness.

"...Jung?"

Lisa identified him with her slightly clearer vision. The bedroom was already bright, and he was already dressed up. He smiled and lowered his head, kissing her lightly on the lips.

"It's past noon. You should get up."

"...This is your fault though."

Lisa fell asleep at dawn today. He was so persistent in not letting her go that she didn't even know when exactly she fell asleep. She looked at the refreshed expression on his face and closed her eyes.

"I want to sleep a little more."

"You have to get up now to be able to meet your grandfather. He'll be here in about two hours."

Her sleepiness instantly disappeared. Lisa widened her eyes and unconsciously sat upright.

"Who did you say is coming? My grandfather?"

"You said you wanted to meet him. Have you changed your mind?"

"Ah...No. It's not that but...how did you contact my grandfather?"

"I asked the maid to find out where he was staying yesterday."

No matter what decision she came to, whether it was to meet her grandfather or to not, it was essential to first know how to contact the other party. It was a matter of course to Jungkook but Lisa didn't think of it at all. When he told her that he would find out how to contact her grandfather, she vaguely thought that with his capability, he would be able to find her grandfather after asking around. But there was such a simple way.

"...But my mind isn't ready yet..."

"There's no need for that If you drag it out, you'll only get sentimental. Why did you want to meet your grandfather?"

"I was curious about what kind of person my mother's father is. I also thought I should let him know about my mother."

"Then meet him with that in mind. Don't bother yourself with too many worries."

Lisa was surprised by him. He was sharp about the point that she hadn't thought of at all. It was natural that worries would increase the more time passed, but the fact that he knew that was fascinating to her.

When she married him, she was impressed by his rapid driving force. He had a personality that pushed forward without hesitation when he made a decision. He seemed like a man that would never waste his time on thinking for too long.

'Does he ever worry? Has he ever regretted a decision he made?'

These days, Jungkook worried almost every day. But the cause of this had absolutely no idea that he spent his days worrying and regretting.
