HELLBOUND WITH YOU 🅱️🅾️🆗 2⃣

Finally here

The Kim family and  Lisa were dining peacefully and harmoniously in the kitchen. As per last time, Jennie grandma did the same thing again and heaped a mountain of food on Lisa plate.

But this time, Lisa didn't wait for Jennie to offer him her help. The man just started feeding Jennie instead.

"Eat more," Lisa told her as he lifted a spoonful of food near her lips. Lisa wasn't even bothered by the presence of Jennie family members. His eyes were on Jennie the whole time and nothing else.

Jennie was blushing as she quickly devoured the food on his spoon, glancing shyly at her dad and grandparents. Her dad and grandpa just continued eating while her grandma was smiling as she watched them, looking amused.

"My, my, how sweet of you, Lisa, dear," Jennie grandma said with a pleased smile. "But you should eat, too. Jennie, feed him as well. He's forgetting to feed himself because of you," she suggested and Jennie complexion turned even redder.

But Lisa looked at the grandma and told her it was okay. "I'm not really hungry," he said but Jennie stabbed a piece of meat with her fork and lifted it near his lips. Lisa happily ate it and the couple fed each other throughout dinner that way.

Jennie pale face had somehow gotten better and her family was so relieved at seeing her looking fine again. Andrew never said a word to Lisa. He finally understood the reason behind the uneasy feeling he felt the first time he met Lisa on that stage during Jennie play. He was uneasy because of something he saw in the young man's eyes. The way he looked at Jennie was exactly the same as the way he looked whenever he had stared at his late wife. He could see the depth of his love for her and he could only sigh silently.

After their dinner, Lisa and Jennie sat with her family in the living room. Lisa was holding Jennie hand tightly because she seemed to be feeling nervous. Even though she had already agreed with Lisa request, she still couldn't help but feel worried, not for herself but for Lisa. But thinking that she could finally do something for him, even if it was just granting this one request of his, she would definitely do it no matter what the result may be.

"I'd like to ask for your permission and let me take Jennie with me for six days," Lisa told them. His face was serious and his voice was full of sincerity.

"Oh, you're planning to go away on vacation?" the old grandma asked, looking quite excited.

When Lisa nodded politely, Andrew spoke. "When do you plan to go?" he asked and Lisa felt so relieved. It was a relief that Jennie family were very lenient.

"Tomorrow," he replied and Andrew sighed. He looked at Jennie and asked his daughter this time.

"Do you want to go?" Andrew was scrutinizing his daughter's face. He had spoken with her this morning while she was crying and he was glad because his daughter seemed to have chosen to face her fears head on. Seeing the new sign of fighting spirit in her eyes, Andrew was relieved and was very proud of her. Because his daughter was strong. No matter what anyone said, she was a strong, sweet girl.

Jennie looked at Lisa before she faced her dad and answered him. "Yes dad, I want to go."

With that, Jennie family didn't ask any more questions. Her grandmother even told them to go and pack their things now upon hearing that their flight was going to be early in the morning.

In Jennie room, Jennie just took few things with her because her things were already at Lisa house.

"I will only need these," she said as she zipped a small bag. She stood up to leave when her eyes caught the lovely jellyfishes. She walked over to them, watched them closely as she touched the tank. "I want to take them with us." She pouted when Lisa hugged her from behind.

"You can't. They will die if we move them again. Your dad already promised to take care of them," Lisa assured her and Jennie finally let go.

Once they were by the door, Jennie hugged all her beloved family.

"Be careful on you trip, okay?" her grandmother said and Jennie nodded. She then walked towards the car as Lisa slightly bowed his head towards them, something that he still wasn't used to doing, and turned to leave when Andrew, who was standing one step above him, held his shoulder.

"Take care of Jennie," he said, his voice exuding a tone of loving concern.

Lisa faced him and looked at him with certainty and assurance. "I will take care of her," he declared and Andrew nodded.

"Enjoy your trip."

"Yes."

"Well then, drive safely."

"Yes."

Andrew then glanced at his daughter one more time while Lisa remained standing there like he was unsure if it was rude for him to turn his back to his girlfriend's father first. Seeing him still not moving, Andrew told him to go and when he finally jumped in the car, Andrew smiled as he watched them disappear into the horizon.

…

The car arrived at Lisa mansion early that night.

Jennie nervously stood in front of the huge double doors. She couldn't believe it was just last night when she decided to leave this place forever. But now, here she was again, standing before this very place. This place that was filled with the memories she created with Lisa.

It was still hard to believe.

"Come, Jennie," Lisa called out stretching his hand before her. Jennie placed her hand in his as she smiled despite her hammering heartbeats and then, they both entered the house.

No one was around so they both went straight to the third floor. Once they were in Jennie room, she suddenly felt like she had missed this place so much.

It was like a dream. She sat on the bed, with her legs swinging, and looked at Lisa. The man walked over to her and looked deeply into her eyes.

"I can't believe you're here again," He suddenly said. "I came here last night and… not seeing you here… it was maddening," he confessed and Jennie gaped at him. She imagined him being here last night, all alone, and the first thing she did was embrace him tight.

"I'm here now, Lisa," she uttered, trying her best to console him.

Lisa smiled and kissed her hair. "Mm. I know." You're finally here and I'm not going to let you go again.
