it took some time for lalisa manoban to heal completely, and even better with the help of mark lee. she never confronted yukhei, she didn't want to see him at all, and as much as mark would've liked that to happen because he felt that would be better to end things personally than over he phone; he respected that she didn't want to.

so, it took a few months, but eventually, mark and lisa ended up together. he helped her as she looked around for a place where she could sell her photos, placing them in big and small frames, to help her, mark would even send some to his parents in hopes they'd get someone to buy it.

a few people often came in, and that helped. her life was moving on, mark was getting near his graduation and lisa felt excited for him. because that also meant that he would finally send out the book she knew he had already finished.

so when the time did come, right after the ceremony and the small party, mark right away went to lisa's apartment. not knowing at all she had a small party planned for him that consisted of just the two of them.

so to say that when he arrived, he was shocked to not only have small explosions of glitter onto him, but also his girlfriend's squeals full his ears and her tightly embracing him while pampering his whole face with kisses as she let her body hung to his — was an understatement.

they commemorated it for the whole night, drinking and and trying not to be so excited as to have the neighbors complain about it. but at some point, lisa pulled out from behind the cushion on the couch while they were hugging, what seemed to be a parcel.

mark had his brows furrowed in confusion as he caresses his girlfriend's face. "what's that?" he questioned.

lisa's smile widened and pecked her boyfriend's lips. "this here," she shook it slightly. "is going to be the best selling book out there — dear dreamer." she loved the way the male's eyes widened in realisation after a slight giggle, because he then, knew what the female held. and she was faster than him when jumping off the couch.

they ran in circles for a while lisa laughed loudly, and they came to a stop as mark was on the other side of the table and not even being able to corner her at all. he was flustered and she could tell.

"lisa, give that back." he pointed out sharply and his girlfriend gasped, dramatically feigning shock.

"didn't your mother ever teach you it's rude to point at others?" she was mocking him, obviously.

the male was that close to climbing on top of the table just so he could tackle his girlfriend to the ground as she held a copy of the book he finished. and she knew he was holding back on sending it out.

his eyes narrowed as she hummed mischievously. "should I just push it into the mail for you?" she asked while pretending there was an imaginary mail box before her and even making sounds as if she was putting the letter in. "or... would you like me to put it in the mail for you?" she repeated.

"lisa!" he exclaimed and she arched a brow. "please, I'll put it in the mail already."

"oh yeah?" she grinned. "I know you finished this three months ago, what happened to sending it the moment you got done with it?" she taunted, mark struggled with his own words. instead of being able to corner lisa, he was the one being cornered.
