Lisa woke up the next morning, feeling well-rested after how many days. She smiled more after feeling a feline beside her.

Did she pick up her cats last night? Why can't she remember it? And how the heck did she get home? Did...

Did T-taehyung carry her here?!

T-that...is so embarrassing!!!

She cringed at her bed for a long time like a worm being sprinkled with salt, until her door burst out open, revealing a guy that she least expected.

What

The

Hell?!

"J-Jungkook??"

"I'll get going now that you're awake."

He didn't even look at her. Lisa suddenly felt like crying. What is he doing at her house?

How did he get here?

How can he--

Wait...

"Jungkook, w-wait!"

She quickly run in his direction, pulling his arms to stop him which make Jungkook froze on his spot.

"I-I'm sorry. I j-just wanted to a-asked something..."

She quickly let go of her hold from his arm. Jungkook stared at her with an indifferent gaze, she suddenly felt discomfort in her heart.

Did he already move on from her?

Did he not love her anymore?

"What is it?"

His voice...

Lisa quickly shakes her head as she tries her best to smile at him. Jungkook nods his head before finally leaving her there...alone.

Lisa sighed, her tears finally streaming down from her eyes as she look at the door of her house.

When she decided to turn her back from the direction of the door, she heard footsteps coming towards her.

She turns around again, seeing Jungkook now standing in front of her. She didn't believe it at first.

She must be hallucinating...

She scratches her eyes a little, wiping her tears as she looks intensely at the guy standing in front of her.

She didn't even have time to process things when she felt herself getting wrapped by his embrace.

Hugging her tightly like she was his lifeline.

The nostalgia...

"I missed you, doll. So much."

Jungkook's baritone voice tickled her ears as she buried her face in his chest, finally crying her eyes out to him.

"I missed you too, Jungkook. So so much. Please forgive me, I love you!"

"I know, doll. I know."

"T-then, do you still love me? Can we still go back to how we were? Just like before?"

Lisa pulled out from the hug as she looked at Jungkook with hopeful eyes.

But after seconds of waiting, she didn't get an answer. Is this her karma?

What's happening?

Jungkook smirked at her lightly before pushing her away from him like she's some kind of virus, then turning his back from her, leaving her again, dumbfounded.








Lisa sobbed as she open her eyes, there were tears in them. She just woke up from that...dream.

A nightmare.

She looks around, there's no sign of him. She stood up from the bed, walking out of her room.

Her eyebrows creased up as she wander her eyes at her living room. It's clean and neat.

As she can clearly remember, she left her dirty clothes there, along with her bags and luggage.

Is there a chance that he's indeed here?

But if he is? Where is he now?

She frantically looked around, from the living room to the kitchen and bathroom.

She ran on the whole house like a maniac, trying to find any signs of him.

After she finished rummaging the whole place, she gave up. She felt her eyes brimming with tears as she look at the laundry baskets.

Who did this?

Who cleaned her place?

Who fetched her pets?

How did she get home?

Who brought her home?

Lisa slumped down on the couch, her tears finally made their way to her cheeks, wetting her face.

What the hell is happening?

Her dog, Love came towards her, licking her tears which gave a warm comfort to her somehow.

"Who brought us home?"

She mumbled as the dog wag his tail more before barking.

Damn, is there a dog dictionary? What does that energetic wags and barks mean?

"You know, I love your dad so much..."

"Why did I realize it so late? I'm so stupid!"

"Am I dumb for not evaluating my feelings well? Why did I even doubt answering Jisoo Unnie last time?"

"Ah! These tears made my head hurt!"

Lisa grunted as she pulled her hair in frustration. Her tears continued to flow like a river. Even her nose started to get stuffy.

The dog obediently listened to her rants just like a normal human friend would do. Just looking at the obedient dog, her tears continued to gush out. Finally letting out all of the emotions she kept for days.

"Damn it, where are the freaking tissues?"

She cried at Love who is still wagging his tail as he tried getting closer to her.

She pouted at the gesture, her heart warming as the dog looks like hugging her, comforting her.

"Do you think, it's really over between the two of us?"

Lisa continued her drama to the dog who is patiently comforting her.

"Well, I guess it's already over. Just like what he said before, one time thing, only one time happiness, one time experience. It will never be repeated. It will happen just...once."

(A/n: but the lovemaking isn't just once, tho ୧(﹒︠ᴗ﹒︡)୨)

Comically, you can hear a heart-shattering as Lisa uttered those words with pain.

She continued sobbing in the living room, not noticing a buff man entering her apartment with bags of groceries.

Jungkook looked at the heartbroken Lisa who is crying her heart out to the dog. She's murmuring some words that he can't even understand.

He reached the living room, remaining unnoticed by the crying girl--his girl on the couch with Like.

He cleared his throat before speaking.

"W-why are you crying?"

Lisa looked up in surprise. Her tear-stained face was enough to clench Jungkook's heart.

Geez, she looked like a baby crying!

She looked so small, vulnerable, and fragile. He wanted to go near her and hug her--

"J-jungkook?"
