Dear Jungkook,

I got your letter! Hope you're doing well. I can't say the same for me though.

Frankly, everything's been a blur. Mother is adamant that I get married as soon as possible, but Father says the church is very busy nowadays. I'm relieved because I don't want to get married.

At least, not to someone who's not you.

I mean, Taehyung is a great person and everything, but he doesn't get me the way you do. I'm not in love with him. And I don't think he's in love with me either.

My parents don't seem to see it the way I do, though. They say that you're not, I quote, "of equal social standing and status and thus, not worthy" of me. Just because your parents own a tea shop. So what? I happen to think that tea planting is very cool.

I hear them talking about Taehyung and I now. They're gushing about how cute we look together. It just feels wrong when they talk about us like that. Oh, how I wish you could be here now.

Oh no, they're talking about paying the church extra money in order to bring forward my marriage. I have to go now.

When are you coming back to Seoul?

Love,
Lisa.

P.S: It's day one, and I think I can get through this.
