Jungkook looked at the disoriented girl in front of him. Her inky pupils were still unfocused...

His gaze held against hers for a few seconds, then shifted to the two pet dogs that had been roused by their voices. Gureum and Love had rested themselves against each other by his leg, and were looking at him with their little heads raised. Their Samoyed smiles were the cutest he'd ever seen.

Jungkook paused and looked at Lisa again. Why did he feel like he was raising three pets in his house...

Strangely, the chilliness on Jungkook's expression eased.

But Lisa's immediate reaction was to frantically let go of him, jump from the sofa, and say awkwardly to Jungkook: "Sorry, I fell asleep by accident, wait just a moment! I'll go make dinner right away."

It wasn't until she ran into the kitchen that Lisa realized something. Upon first glance, Jungkook's expression was very cold, but it seemed to have warmed slightly afterwards. That... Couldn't have been because of her random hugging, right?

In the living room, Jungkook looked at Lisa's panicked silhouette. A thin smile formed on his lips, then disappeared as quickly as it emerged.

Jungkook sat down on his sofa. His furniture, usually used by him and no one else, was still warm with Lisa's temperature. It felt peculiar, because her warmth seemed to linger on his waist, too. Jungkook wasn't very familiar with this sensation, so he went to the air conditioner and turned it down two degrees.

As he put the remote back on the coffee table, Jungkook's gaze fell upon the documents. The words "Underworld of Wolves" were stenciled very clearly on the cover. He picked it up and randomly flipped through. The papers were riddled with meticulous notes like an ant hill, and the writer's care and dedication could easily be seen. Jungkook flipped to the last page and saw the two words "Peaches" written at the bottom.

Peaches, Lisa.

Jungkook stared at the girl in the kitchen. So it was her, all along.

"Three dishes and a soup, complete." Lisa took her apron off and set two bowls of rice on the table.

Jungkook sat down on a chair and examined the dishes. Twice-cooked pork, sauteed green beans, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a mushroom soup. Though they were common household dishes, they were made very delicately and were impeccable.

Lisa rested her chin against her palm. "Have a taste."

Jungkook picked up his chopsticks and took a bite. Lisa's gaze lingered on his hand holding his chopsticks. She felt that his slow though elegant pace was extremely attractive.

"It's not bad, right?" At least, Lisa was still confident in her cooking abilities.

Jungkook nodded. "It's decent."

"That's for sure." Lisa's mood rose greatly from his compliment. Before, she had never thought that her cooking was very good, but today... She felt that all those years had beenworth it.

Lisa picked up her chopsticks and also began to eat. Jungkook's hand stopped as he pinched some green beans. He looked up at Lisa, who was munching very naturally and didn't show a sign of hesitation. However, he didn't recall saying that she could eat with him.

Normally, he would probably boot someone like that out the door, but today he lost that impulse. Whatever, it wouldn't be very practical if she refused to cook for him anymore as a result of him doing that.

The two ate silently, and Love and Gureum also trotted over to catch up on the fun. They barked a few times and Lisa was exasperated. "What do you want, are you not full yet?"
