Song of the chapter: Yellow Coldplay

Pov Lalisa Manoban

- I can't believe it. - I automatically sat up when I heard the news. - How is she? Why didn't you call me before?

- Rose didn't have the strength to speak Lisa so she asked me to do it, she's taking care of the funeral on her own, in fact.

- Do you need anything?

- Good, actually.

- Go ahead.

- I think the funeral is taking a bit too much out of Rose's plans because it's two people, but she's trying to get some money from the bank.

I looked at the large window in front of me, imagining the sadness and emptiness that Rose would be feeling at that moment, imagining that she hadn't expected this at all, least of all me. Rose had left Korea so happy and brave, I feared that this loss would pull her back to the beginning when she had simply given up on everything.

- Lisa? - Jisoo brought me back and I blinked a few times.

- Jisoo, can you do me a favor?

- Sure, Lisa can talk.

- Don't let Rose go to the bank before 3 p.m., give me the branch and her account, please.

- Lisa, I don't know if Rose....

- Don't worry Jisoo, I'll deal with her later, when's the funeral?

- It'll be early tomorrow morning, do you think you can make it? I imagine your support would be very important to her.

By then Rose had already let Jisoo know all the information about us and I honestly felt relieved, Jisoo was a very important part of Rose's life and would be present at many of our moments.

I smiled to myself as I went over that phrase, "moments of ours", I was already including her in my future plans.

- Lisa? - Jisoo called me again, now with a laugh at the end. - Rose makes you very airy.

- I have to agree with that, I'll do my best, just don't tell her I don't know what time I'd be able to get there.

- All right, thanks for all your support, Lisa.

After Jisoo hung up the phone, I started packing for my return to Australia. I had to confess that I wasn't planning on going back any time soon.

But what could I do if my mind wasn't there? in Korea, I was with a beautiful young woman with pink hair and an angelic voice in Australia, I could organize myself to do the rest online or by video call Miya would help me with that, she was very good.

It took me at least two hours to reschedule some meetings and sign some contracts, my jet had already returned as soon as it dropped Rose off at her destination.

I was walking to reception when I was stopped by Min-ji. She was one of the last people I wanted to see at that point, her overbearing manner put me off and she seemed to get a kick out of it.

- Good morning Miss Lalisa. - she was wearing a very tight black top, well, when I say very tight, I mean breasts screaming for space. She also wore black sweatpants.

Her forehead was sweaty and a few strands of her short hair fell around her face.

She snapped her fingers in front of me and it was only then that I realized I'd spent a long time staring at her, great, another reason for her to think she had my attention.
