Chapter 14

After leaving Lisa's store, Hanbin drove around Starlight Park before heading back towards his bar. His brothers knew he was in a bad mood, so they didn't dare talk to him.

When Hanbin walked in his bar, he shut himself in the lounge and put on an album of PUMPKIN in the DVD player. Hearing the loud music coming from the lounge, Bobby subconsciously kneaded his ears. The person beside him said "Brother Bobby, Brother BI is doing it again."

Bobby sighed then said "Let him go, he's in a bad mood."

Every time Hanbin was in a bad mood, he liked to vent like this.

In the lounge, Hanbin played with his air guitar, completely immersed in the music. This time, he wasn't playing PUMPKIN's famous song 'Green Plum', but another old song he was familiar with-- 'Dorothy'.

It was said that the song was written by lead singer Ray for their band agent. They were childhood sweethearts, and the band was actually formed by the two. At the time, all the magazines and reporters said that the two would surely get together. But in the end, the agent married an ordinary outsider and later, PUMPKIN disbanded.

What the world said about the fated golden boy and jade girl had only been wishful thinking in the end.

It was now nine years since Hanbin had first seen Lisa. Nine years filled with compulsory education and resistance. But no matter how hard he had tried, he hadn't managed to move her heart.

He thought back to the day Lisa entered high school. She was standing in the corner of the classroom, her schoolbag slung across her back. She was looking around with cold eyes, as if she had never once thought of integrating herself into the people she would be with for the next three years. At the time he thought This girl is really interesting.

It was as if nothing could move her. That nothing had to do with her.

At first, he paid attention to Lisa just out of curiosity. He wanted to see a change of expression out of the girl. Bit by bit he paid more and more attention to her and saw that even in small groups she would isolate herself.

Although Lisa never cared about it. Or rather, she preferred to be alone and with no one bothering her.

Because Hanbin was a well-known 'school bully', others naturally didn't dare bother Lisa. But of course, this also meant that no one could stop Kim Hanbin himself from bothering her. Although Lisa was indifferent to his attention, Hanbin thought that with enough time, she would eventually be moved.

It was like a long-winded tug-of-war. Both were stubborn and both were waiting for each other to give up. Hanbin had been waiting for Lisa to be moved. Lisa had been waiting for Hanbin to stop bother her.

In the end, he lost. He had never moved her.

The song ended, and Hanbin collapsed on the sofa, gasping violently.

He had spent nine years and not once did Lisa open her heart to him. And that takeaway boy only knew her for a few days? Why him?

Hearing the music from the lounge disappear, Bobby tentatively knocked on the lounge door. "Brother BI, shall we go to lunch?"

There was no answer. Just when Bobby thought he wouldn't get a response, the door suddenly opened. with no expression on his face, Hanbin answered "I want to drink the best and most expensive alcohol in this bar."

"Good, good. But we can't just drink, why don't we order some barbecue?"

"Whatever, just bring me the wine." Hanbin took two steps outside, then turned back to Bobby. "Bring me the bottle of Yellow Tail."
