"Hello, help me send it here." Jennie pulled out a courier slip from the counter and filled it out in imitation of Dara's handwriting.

After completing it, she handed it back to the counter staff.

Lisa handed over the packaged items for weighing.

"Miss, the total is $7. Is it going to the postal express point in Tarrey Town?"

Jennie  nodded to confirm and watched as the other person tore off the receipt and handed it to her.

Only then did she walk out together with Lisa.

The sky had already darkened, with the city lights starting to illuminate the streets.

The road was bustling with traffic.

Lisa held Jennie's hand and tucked it into her jacket's pocket to keep it warm.

The words spoken between the two of them turned into a white mist that quickly dissipated into the air.

"I asked Dara, and it turns out that all those winter quilts and clothing sent to Aunt Maria every year were not sent by her."

"Yeah, Seungri died, Rami also died, and Dara is in prison. Only Aunt Maria doesn't know anything. She always thought Dara  was a good woman, living well in the city with her child. Dara  often helped her and sent her things. But little did she know that the only person who had her in mind from beginning to end was a murderer."

Jennie  sighed slightly, not knowing how to evaluate Seungri. She reached into her bag with one hand and took out a cigarette.

With a flick, she lit the lighter.

Before taking a few puffs, someone snatched it from her without hesitation and didn't mind taking a drag.

Jennie  clicked her tongue, rolled her eyes, and planned to find another cigarette. But someone confiscated the whole pack.

The two of them stood by the zebra crossing, waiting for the traffic light.

Lisa hold her hand firmly.

With a cigarette in her mouth, Lisa had a somewhat carefree and unrestrained appearance, blowing smoke rings to the side.

"The doctor said that your illness is most vulnerable to lung infections. Smoke less."

"If you want to smoke, just say it. I wonder who it was that used to insist on not smoking ladies' cigarettes."

Lisa laughed, extinguished the cigarette on the nearby trash can, and threw it in.

"Now I like it. It has your scent."

"..."

These cheesy love words are just so predictable.

Thinking about the ambiguous and sticky moments in bed last night, Jennie's face turned red, and she tried to reach out to Lisa's ear attempting to pinch it. "Shut up."

Lisa dodged, seeing that the traffic light turned green. She quickly started the motorcycle and they rushed across the road in a flash.

"Finally, it's over. This client had quite a lot of demands."

A few men and women in suits walked out of the opposite law firm.

Rose stopped in her tracks, watching the two people playing around on the side of the road.

A colleague nudged her arm. "Rose, aren't you leaving? What are you looking at?"
