No Strings Attached

Epilogue

One year later

“Manoban, what in the world are you doing here?! You should be at home accompanying your wife-to-be,” Jisoo roared. This was the umpteen time Jisoo tried to chase Lisa home. It was the night before Lisa’s engagement party and being the star of the party, she was supposed to be resting at home and preparing for the big day instead of working.

“She’s not home. She’s burying herself at work,” Lisa answered without looking up from the wedding cake she was decorating.

“I thought she was on leave for these few days?”

“They had something urgent to rush and she had to go back to office today,” Lisa replied with a tinge of sadness in her voice.

“Well, be thankful she has been promoted to a strategic position and doesn’t need to travel that often. Lisa, trust me with the cake alright? It would be the most beautiful cake by tomorrow morning.”

“But… I want it to be the best cake that she has ever seen and tasted!”

“It will be. You baked it. I’m just helping you with the décor. You wouldn’t want to look like a panda at your engagement party right? With immediate effect, you’re banned from the cafe. Go rescue your princess from her office and bring her for a nice dinner,” Jisoo commanded.

“Lisa unnie, don’t forget the flowers!” Yeri called out, running after Lisa as Lisa was leaving the café. She handed Lisa a bunch of pink roses and waved goodbye as Lisa drove off.

Arriving at the foot of a tall office building, Liaa parked her car along the road and waited outside the car. Soon, she saw a brunette rushing out of the building with that familiar red Prada briefcase. The briefcase was getting worn out from the constant use but Jennie didn’t want to throw it away as it held precious memories of how the both of them met.

Jennie flung herself onto Lisa and enveloped the taller woman in a hug.

“Whoa whoa, I’m falling backwards from your weight!” Lisa said as she struggled to maintain her balance.

Jennie took a step back and frowned. “Are you saying I’m fat?”

“No no, of course not!” Lisa replied hurriedly.

“You’ve the perfect S-line figure and I know it best!” Lisa said cheekily as she ran her hands down the sides of Jennie’s body, stopping at her waist. She was proud to be the only person who could feel that sexy figure daily.

“That sounds better,” Jennie replied conceitedly.

Before driving off, Lisa carefully removed the bunch of pink roses from the rear passenger seat and handed it to Jennie. “Beautiful flowers for an even more beautiful you.”

Jennie took a sniff at the roses and smiled. Pink roses were one of her favourite flowers. In fact, she insisted on having pink roses as part of the decorations for her engagement party.

“You and your sugar coated words.” Jennie scrunched up her face and stuck her tongue out at Lisa.

“Must be the sugar rush from making meringues and macaroons this morning. All for our engagement party tomorrow,” Lisa beamed.

Jennie leaned across the seat and gave Lisa a kiss on her cheek. “Thank you.”

“Hmm, that’s not enough.” Lisa pointed to her lips and pouted.

Jennie whined before giving Lisa a light kiss on the lips. However, Lisa was quick to reach one hand behind Jennie’s head to prevent the brunette from escaping and the kiss turned into a deep one.
