The Way I Loved You | LK ADAPTATION

85

After the New Year’s Eve celebration, they played in the square for a while, but not wanting the Kim family to worry, Jungkook sent Lisa home.

She hid her slender body under the red cloak, like an elf sneaking into the world from the night, holding the corner of her clothes and asking him, “Will we go to see the panda tomorrow?”

On the first day of the new year, she wanted to look at pandas.

Jungkook smiled and touched her furry hat brim, “Okay.”

Walking downstairs in the community, the innocent moonlight sprinkled from the dead branches of the Begonia and fell on her.

She waved to him, her eyebrows were like crescent moons in the sky, “I’m leaving, see you tomorrow.”

She could always make him look forward to tomorrow.

On the way home, he flipped through his phone and received a lot of congratulatory text messages and red envelopes. Mingyu sent a lot of them in the group:

"Brother, I heard that you went to see your in-laws?"

"How was it? Is your father-in-law satisfied with you?"

"Hanbin, that kid didn’t trip you up, right?"

"The brother-in-law is the most difficult to deal with!"

Hanbin who was pulled into the group by Eunha: Mingyu, rubbish.

Mingyu: Who is this white lotus??? Why do you call me rubbish??? There is a single opportunity for take-backs!!!

White lotus Kim: middle finger.

The group made a lot of noise, Jungkook turned over, shook his head and smiled and cursed. When he got home, he washed up and went to sleep. After all, he had to accompany his girl to see the panda tomorrow.

The phone rang at four o’clock in the morning.

Jungkook was confused, thinking he was dreaming, and ignored it the first two times.

The third time he realized that the phone was ringing. He was so impatient that he was disturbed by the ringing. He half-squinted and opened his eyes, and said angrily, “Hello?”

Jieun's trembling cry came from the earpiece, “Jungkook, Grandpa is going to die.”

Jungkook immediately became sober, turned over and sat up from the bed. On the phone, Jieun was still crying and told him the address of the hospital.

Before dawn, everything was silent, he hurriedly put on his clothes and rushed out.

The hospital was as bright as day.

In the corridor outside the ward, the people of the Jeon family were all there, along with many comrades in military uniforms and subordinates.

Jieun waited at the elevator entrance with red eyes. When she saw him coming out, she immediately rushed up. Jungkook felt his throat tighten and asked in a low voice, “Is he still there?”

She nodded and said in a low voice, “Granpa seems to…have something he has on his mind and so keeps hanging on his breath.”

Jungkook ignored the people in the corridor and went straight into the ward.

There were only doctors and nurses inside, as Grandpa Jeon drove everyone out.

There was a strong smell of disinfectant in the ward, and the heartbeat device was faintly audible. The old man on the bed half-squinted his eyes, hearing the sound of footsteps, and slowly opened them.
