As Jungkook wore a mask, no one could see his expression. His head raised, he was still as he stared at the LED advertising board. His clear and dark pupils reflected the lights across the river and glittered like stars.
"Sir?" The shop assistant suddenly called him.
"Mm?" Jungkook turned his head only after a while and looked at the shop assistant.
The shop assistant passed the bag to him, "Your rabbit heads".
He was distracted as he took the snack and toy. He turned and walked towards the advertising board, as if pulled by an urge to be closer to it.
The shop assistant panicked. "Sir you haven't pair yet!"
"Sorry" Jungkook returned to make payment.
After paying, he carried the snacks and toys to riverside. He stood behind the railing and stared at those words. His chest was burning hot and he was so stirred that he was trembling slightly. He was about to melt from being too touched; it was if the world snowed sugar and even the breathes he took were sweet. Jungkook was certain that if he was to go for a blood test at this moment, his blood would be sweet as well.
He had the wild urge to see her immediately, to hug her and kiss her.
However, at the same time, he was afraid that if he saw her right now, his tears might start falling....
The LED confession caused numerous passers-by to halt their steps and linger by the riverside the entertained looks. Beside Jungkook was a couple. The guys said to the girl. "Jeon Jungkook must have saved the galaxy in his previous life". There was envy in his voice.
Jungkook in sighed agreement. "That's right".
The couple tossed him odd glances. What a weirdo. The guy must have been single for too long that he was lonely enough to cut into stranger's conversation.
The couple held hands and left hurriedly. Jungkook stood on the riverside and called Lisa.
"Jungkook, where are you dog?"
"Where are you at?"
"I'm at where we arranged to meet. Hey don't tell me that you're not here yet? If you dare to say 'yes', I'm going to break your stupid legs. You Coconut heat I----"
As she rambled, she turned causally and suddenly entered someone's embrace.
Lisa did not see this person's face. However, she was familiar with his smell.
Lisa was a little embarrassed to be hugging in public. "Jungkook, let's spare a thought for all those who are single on this street. This is their day after all...."
"Lisa", Jungkook interrupted her. He used his chin to nuzzle her neck. "I think that life has been good to me".
"It is. Your mom is a domineering CEO".
"I'm not referring to that".
Lisa's lips curved. One side of her face resting on his chest, she gazed at the advertising board across the river and said, "Jungkook, do you know that this is the most expensive advertising board in Rain City? Because of the festival today, it's even more expensive than usual".
"I know, thank you".
"No, what I mean is...." Lisa was suddenly a teeny weeny bit guilty. She felt that she might be one of those legendary female wastrels. "I want to inform you that there are only six yuan and five cents left in your card".
"I love you".
"...." Caught off guard by the confession, Lisa forgot what she wanted to say. Her mind went blank and she was dazed for half a beat. Then, she buried her thoroughly red face into his chest quietly.
