The Love Island

💛 Chapter 10 💛

🏝️🏝️🏝️

                     Lisa squinted her eyes from the sunlight that filtered through the window. She stretched out her sore arms and let out a massive yawn. She turned on her side to see a sleeping Jungkook leaning against a coffee table. His soft brown hair was shining and his lips were bent in a cute pout.

        Surprised, she turned her head and studied the unfamiliar place. The last thing she remembered was the forest.

                     The bungalow was small and cozy and it had a nice, comforting smell. She turned back to look at JK again. She slowly lowered her legs from a soft, leather couch she was laying on. Suddenly, she felt blood rush back into her head. She sneezed and a small string of blood dripped down her nose.

                     She let out a shocked gasp, which woke up Jungkook from his deep slumber.

                     "Gosh, not again. Crap", Jungkook stood up and pulled Lalisa, who was trying to lie down again, into a sitting position. He grabbed a few tissues from the box on the table and gave it to the girl.

                     "Put them under your nose, I'll get Lucas"

                     "Who is Lu-"

                     "Just do what I say!"

Lalice shut her mouth with a pout and dabbed at the blood. Jungkook took big strides towards the kitchen, then suddenly remembered that he was barely familiar with this place.

                    "Uh, Lucas-ahjussi?!", Jungkook stuttered, not knowing how to address the man. No response was heard. He called again, but a different voice called back.

                    "Uh, is everything okay?" Kook's heart leapt out of his chest as he whipped around to spot a head peeking out of the window in the living room. A shadow was cast on their face from the bright sunlight shining around it.

                     Like an eclipse, it completely blackened their face, making it unable to distinguish their facial features. But he did remember the familiar short, curly hair of Margaret from yesterday.

                    He also recalled that she didn't speak Korean, therefore not understanding what he said and will say.

                   Carefully choosing his words, he spoke,

                   "Lisa, my friend, her nose is bleed", Jungkook grimaced again at how bad he speaks English. Ugh, why wasn't he at least a little bit as good as Namjoon-hyung?

                    "Alright, I will check on her now, I was just outside picking some fresh onions, or should I say digging? Hahaaha!", Margaret's head disappeared from the window as she walked around the house and through the front door.

                     She hurried to the kitchen, dumping the load of onions and washing her hands. She grabbed the first aid kit and jogged back to Lalisa. The little girl was already in awe of what was happening around her. The house, the strange woman, the mysterious 'Lucas', the foreign furniture, and so many other things Lalice could not comprehend.

                    She jumped back as the old lady tried to touch her nose with the cotton.

                    "It's okay, sweetie. I'm just wiping the blood from your nose, okay?", Margaret said with a gentle smile. Lisa stared at JK, bewildered.
