The melodious tune of 'Zhen Ming Ge'[1] started to play, Lisa's consciousness woke from its sleep. She stretched one hand out of the blanket, moved around and turned off the alarm clock without looking. Then she retracted back into blanket to continue sleeping.

Ten minutes later, the melody of 'Zhen Ming Ge' started again.

Lisa climbed out of bed and turned off the alarm clock. With bleary eyes, she scratched her messy hair.

"Do you want to do a commercial voice over in the future?"

"En......of course I do......"

"Then give me your phone number."

"......Oh."

Lisa recollected her conversation with Taehyung last night. She buried her head into the pillow again......

Oh my gosh, she had given V Da Da her real world contact information!

They were in the same school and it was very normal to have each other's contact information. But it happened too abruptly and she was not ready for it psychologically.

For the whole morning, Lisa sat semi-consciously through her Applied Calculus class. Her brain felt as if it had been glued in place. Before the class was over, the professor left some time for students to self-study. She looked at the questions in the exercise, the parameter of Y was, the parameter......Y......She suddenly remembered one thing.

Currently, V Da Da had her cell phone number. But he had not called her back......So she did not have his cell number......

Lisa scratched her hair. So only V Da Da could initiate contact with her? But it was impossible that he would call her no matter what.

Probably heaven had heard Lisa's request. Or maybe her mind could perform telepathy. Lisa's cell vibrated in her pocket the next second. She looked around the classroom and noticed that everybody was already relaxed and waiting for the class to be dismissed. She shamelessly pulled out her cell from pocket.

【Do you have class in the afternoon. I will take you to a place. Let's eat lunch together。--206-xxx-xxxx】

Lisa blinked her eyes. She hadn't responded yet to this strange number and was just about to write it off as someone texting the wrong number. By then the next text message had already arrived.

【I am Kim Taehyung。--206-xxx-xxxx】

She didn't know how to respond.

While Lisa followed the flow of students and walked out of the large classroom, she was still staring at the two newly received messages and was lost in her own thoughts. She opened the Contact list on her cell and solemnly added his name to her contacts. She typed the name 'Taehyung.'

She hesitated for some time and before she knew how to reply, her finger accidentally touched the Call icon.

Lisa watched the screen display "Calling" helplessly. She only moved the cell to her ear after she heard the sound faintly coming from the other end.

"How are you, I, I am Lalisa Manoban."

The other end paused shortly. The magnetic voice was laced with a light smile. "I know."

Lisa felt quite awkward for a while, then she remembered the messages. "Uhm......That, Oppa, I just saw your messages......" Then, then what to say next? Lisa bit her lower lip. What would be a proper way to ask?

"Where do you want to take me to?" Wouldn't it be too straightforward?

Or "Are you sure that you did not send it to wrong person?" Wouldn't it be too cold?

Some hissing sound from the other end, the man's voice was a bit vague. It seemed that he was eating something. "Just a minute......" Then he hung up the phone.

Lisa was puzzled, but felt a great sense of relief.

In the next second, she saw somebody in the crowd before her was waving at her.

Though he was among the large crowd of Americans, he was still very eye-catching.

He wore a simple black T shirt with blue jeans, plus one black hunting cap. He looked like a sophomore or a junior student. He looked very young among them, who had more mature appearances.

He waved to her; and his quiet eyes under the cap watched her come closer and closer.

He grinned as she walked closer. "No class in the afternoon?"

Lisa shook her head.

"Then let's go." Taehyung turned around and tilted his head to look at her. "I am taking you to eat good food."

Ha?
