The Best Of You | L.K Adaptation

Chapter 43

When Jungkook returned, Lisa was still not asleep. The girl just lay on the bed with the tightly closed blanket. Only her palm-sized face was visible, along with a pair of large black eyeballs that looked bright in the dark.

Seeing Jungkook return, she hastily lifted the blanket and said to him, "Hurry in".

Jungkook walked to the side of the bed and was stunned for a moment, but he did not move.

He had just taken a cold sower for quite a long time. The heat in his body finally subsided, but....

His dark eyes fell onto Lisa's soft lips, unconsciously his throat suddenly felt dry.

He was indeed at a young age that was full of enthusiasm. Being able to sleep together with his beloved girl, of course, couldn't escape some urges to do so.

Jungkook stood at the side of the bed for a while. But in the end, he just bent down and helped Lisa tidy up the blanket, then lowered his head and gently kissed her forehead, "Sleep well, don't kick the blanket".

Lisa was stunned, "What about you?"

Jungkook replied, "I'll sleep on the sofa".

After saying this, he stroked Lisa's head and straightened himself.

Lisa grabbed his arm subconsciously, looked straight into Jungkook's eyes, and whispered, "You just sleep with me, it's no....no problem, really".

Jungkook smiled, then bent down and put back Lisa's hand under the blanket. Then touched her forehead, looked at her for a while, and said softly, "Go to sleep".

Jungkook took a blanket from the cupboard and went to sleep on the sofa in the living room.

The room was quiet, Lisa laid alone on the bed. The blanket and pillows were full of Jungkook's body scent, a light, and refreshing mint scent.

Subconsciously, Lisa buried herself even more in the blanket. She hide her mouth and nose in the blanket, only a pair of black eyes could be seen. She stared at the door without blinking.

She remembered what just happened, actually....if Jungkook wanted to do 'something more', Lisa was also willing.

On the eve of Chinese New Year, the streets were illuminated by bright lights. The sound of firecrackers and fireworks outside continued until three or four in the morning before everything gradually stopped.

Lisa stayed up all night, staring at the gray ceiling above her head without blinking. Her mind was full of thoughts about Jungkook's parents.

All this time, she knew that Jungkook's family condition was not very good, but she did nit know that Jungkook had earned himself his tuition and living expenses for him and his grandmother since long ago. Jungkook never told her this.

She remembered when Jungkook was smoking on the bridge alone. At that time, Jungkook must have been so sad when he saw everyone gathered in their house.

No matter how strong the young man was, he was only 20 years old.

Lisa burst into tears at the thought of this, her tears falling uncontrollably.

During her lifetime, it was the first time she had insomnia all night along.

The next day, she got out of bed before dawn.

She put on her jacket and slowly opened the door.

It was just as a little past five o' clock, Jungkook still hadn't woken up yet.

Lisa walked on tiptoe and slowly walked over to Jungkook.

Jungkook had a habit of running in the morning. Every day he would wake up at six in the morning.
