Slowly Falling | LK Adaptation

Chapter 62

The female coach who jumped with Lisa was really experienced. By the time they smoothly landed on the ground, Jungkook also landed not too far from them.

After detaching Lisa, the instructor applauded the couple in congratulations.

Jungkook walked towards her with a smile. "How are you feeling?"

After some thought, Lisa replied: "It was exhilarating. Your little stunt was a bit silly, though."

Jungkook chuckled. "It doesn't matter if it looked silly. As long as my intentions reached your heart, then it was worth it." Given the fact that Lisa made a heart sign when they were in the air, he felt that his proposal had successfully touched her.

Lisa: "...."

These past few years, together with his three-year stay abroad, made Jungkook's personality a lot more cheerful. He had finally put down the heavy burden that had weighed his heart ever since his father's passing.

Eunha used to talk about the 'heavy melancholy' in Jungkook's eyes, but now, there was no heaviness in his gaze. Instead, all Lisa could see was the endless, bright sky.

To be honest, while it was the old Jungkook that first attracted Lisa to him, she very much preferred to see him act like this.

"You've been looking at my face for a while. What are you thinking about?" Jungkook smiled.

She smiled back and said: "Look how thick-skinned your face has become."

Before he could answer, the other staff members approached with champagne to celebrate their successful landing.

Lisa accepted the flute of champagne and clinked it against Jungkook's glass. But he hooked his arm around hers and said: "It's better to drink it like this."

(T/N: That thing some people to at weddings where the bride and groom hook arms and drink wine.)

"..." Surrounded by cheering people, Lisa looked upward and drank her champagne.

After the celebration, all that was left was to wait for their video and photos. This process would take around an hour or two, so the skydiving club had a special rest area where the guests could wait.

In the rest area, Jungkook rummaged through his bag for a while, then reached for Lisa's hand.

Lisa looked at him suspiciously. "What are you doing?"

"Giving you something." He replied. Lisa raised a brow. "And you need to hold my hand to do it?"

Jungkook laughed. "No, but I want to."

She no longer questioned him and offered her right hand.

"The other hand."

"... you're quite picky." Lisa extended her left hand and then watched as Jungkook put a ring on her ring finger.

The design of the ring was simple. The diamond inlaid wasn't huge, but nevertheless, it made her heart tremble.

"Good, it fits." Holding her hand, he raised his head and said: "I can only afford something like this for the time being."

Lisa's trembling fingers grasped his hand and said: "I think it's wonderful. Big diamonds look too tacky to me."

Gradually, Jungkook's grip tightened, and he bowed his head to kiss her hand. "Let's get the license when we get back. What do you think of holding the wedding in early October?"

He's made her wait for too long already. He doesn't' want her to wait any longer.

Lisa nodded. "Nn."
