Healing Sunshine

Chapter 5.3 - You Are By My Side

Suddenly, there was a jolt, Lalisa felt as if she had flown upwards.

Then she was stirred awake by the pain, opening her eyes, in the midst of confusion, she unexpectedly could see only the collar of a black shirt, and that she was being tightly enveloped between Jungkook's two arms, her whole body embraced by him, firmly protected.

She suddenly made a movement, he said: "Lili, don't move." After saying this, and taking a looking in front, did he finally slowly loosened his arms, then, very quickly examine her to see if she was hurt anywhere.

"Your mouth is cut?" he asked her with a low voice, using his index finger to feel her lips.

His voice had always sounded rather cold; therefore, when he actually tried to make it warm, it always had the ability make others feel that hint of gentleness.

It was this type of voice, that could pull a person out of fear and anxiety.

"Um." Her heart was thumping; she did not know what had happened, licking her lips, perhaps she had bitten it?

In the fleeting moment of confusion, she finally noted the tragic state of the car.

The driver had, when they were just two hours away from entering Chengdu, unexpectedly fallen asleep, the whole front part of the car had bored into the underside of the truck's front. Although he had turned the steering wheel in time to protect himself, the whole roof over the passenger seat was slitted through, the glass was broken into pieces. The moment she caught a glance, she was completely terrified, blood was dripping down the driver's face. She realized a moment later that it was because of the cuts from shattered glass.

Fortunately, Jungkook did not sit there.

On their departing journey, he always sat there; only this half of the day, to accompany her, that he sat on the back.

Jungkook speedily discussed with the driver, quickly calling a car, taking the driver and Lalisa to the hospital. Jungkook insisted on having the doctor examine Lalisa, only when it was certain that there was not any problem, did he take her home.

Somi's mother was inside the study anxiously pacing up and down, upon seeing her, was finally relieved.

"Lili," Somi's mother felt extremely guilty, examining her, asked Jungkook, "Already thoroughly examined?"

Jungkook nodded his head.

Lalisa on the contrary felt that she had caused more troubles for others.

As she was leaving the study, she thought for a minute, then said to them: "Please don't tell Somi."

Jungkook and Somi's mother looked at her; she embarrassedly said: "Worried that she would be afraid."

Her and Somi's friendship, was just so precious. Lalisa would feel guilty that she had caused trouble for Somi, Somi also would feel guilty that she had left early, leaving her to face danger alone.

When Lalisa had left, Jungkook thought about what she had just said, hesitated to speak.

"Wondering why Lili is so mature?" Somi's mother could guess his thoughts, "It is a little difficult to explain. Her dad and mom were one of those people who went up and down the mountains, her mom, in order to return to the city, married her dad, there weren't any feelings, thought that they would separate afterwards, not sure why they had Lili, and even gave birth to her."

"Um, then?"

"Why only care about giving birth but do not care about raising her," Somi's mother heaved a sigh, "They let her grandfather carry her back. The problem is, Lili, her dad is the only one in their family who didn't wear military uniform. Her father's relationship with her grandfather is very bad. They said, Lili's grandfather only raised her for the sake of morality, putting his heart to care for her was impossible."
