3 months later

In the past three months, Lisa barely saw Jungkook. If he was at home, she had brand deals to work on. When she was at home he was on business trips.

In a way, this was relieving to Lisa. After that incident 3 months ago they haven't even slept in the same bed. Jungkook slept in the study or the guest room most of the time.

Sometimes, Lisa would remember Jungkook from the past. The school mate  Jungkook before he left for Italy.

The topper boy that had many fan girls but never dated anyone. past incidents had them two involved together but with time, all of them faded away. And just like that, about 7 years later, they meet again, not as classmates or seniors, but as two people forced to marry each other.

"Lisa." Changbin woke Lisa from her daze.

"Huh?" She looked away from the window at Changbin.

"Do you want to go there? Or do you want me to drive you to sir's hotel?" Changbin knew damn well that Lisa was happy to not see Jungkook but as her bodyguard he was nowhere near of having the right to decide that on his own.

"Take me there" she looked away once again, right through the car window at the Han River glistening in the golden rays of Korea's sunlight.

Couples that were eating ice cream, kids playing with bubbles, parents smiling at their kids, Old couples arguing.

She smiled to herself.

If only she was born to an ordinary family. If only she married into an ordinary family.

The fancy rolls Royce parked on the sidelines as usual.

"Do you want me to escort you madam?" Changbin asked.

"Thank you Changbin but I'll walk from here."

She walked towards the gates of JaeSol orphanage. Drenched in golden sunlight, this was a beautiful entrance to be at in the summer.

Lisa walked in through the gates, greeted by a bunch of little kids around the age of six or seven. The giggles and laughter came along with "Lisa Noona!" Or "Lisa Unnie!".

"Oh! Mrs Jeon!" The manager of the orphanage came hurrying to greet Lisa immediately.

"Hello Mrs Kim. Long time no see." Lisa smiled as she handed the large white gift bag over to Mrs Kim.

"I have work this afternoon. Sadly I cannot stay over for tea. Please dont hesitate to text me if there's anything needed." Lisa smiled.

"Thank you for all your help Mrs Jeon." Mrs Kim flashed a genuine smile at Lisa.

Lisa waved at them with a sympathetic yet genuine smile before turning around to walk back to the car.

As she took steps one by one in the pavement, she looked back one more time. The sunset was beautiful. Her mom always used to say, "Watch the sunset with someone you value because you'll never see a sunset you wouldn't like."
