They were on their way back to Lisa's brother's villa. Jungkook had left with a driver to BTS's dorm. The situation in James's car was tense. Nobody dared to say anything. Lisa's mom's face was red.

"I don't agree, Pranpriya. We are a well-known family in Thailand. The media, our foes and allies were watching our movements. We can't have your wedding that simple in secret with no reception? What will people say? Did their daughter get pregnant with a random person? Do you want to have a rumour like that? We need to at least have an announcement in local newspapers. We need to take care of our face too!"

"Calm down, dear. We talk about this later." Mr Bruschweiler said.

"How to calm down? Their wedding is in one week. We still have tonnes to do. We agreed to postpone the reception in Thailand for a year, so at least make this one works. Don't we want to celebrate Jungkook into our family? The Jeons also concerned about this matter. Their first child is getting married. Shouldn't it be grand? We are reconsidering that you guys are idols that we hold our desire to has a grand wedding."

"Mom, I just want to reduce your burden..." Lisa tried to reason with her mother. Tears were flowing.

"It's not reducing my burden but otherwise. I can't even invite our family who lives in Thailand just because you want the wedding simple. They were disappointed. And now, you said you just want to get married in the Registration Office."

Lisa's eyes were red from unshed tears. James who was driving gave a signal to Lisa to stop talking from the rear mirror.

Lisa dried her hair and rubbed the lotion all over her body after shower. James came knocking at her door. Lisa fixed her robe and waited for the door to open.

"Louis wants to sleep with you. Is that okay?"

"Of course. Come here, baby." Lisa reached out for Louis from his brother's arm. Lisa laid Louis on the bed and James passed her his bottle.

"Can we talk for a while?"

Lisa nodded. Knowing that sooner or later they will have some talk.

"I'm not saying that I do not agree with what you said but as mom said, both of you are high profiles figures. I know why you want your marriage a secret. Both of you being together is considered taboo in Kpop especially you are from two biggest groups in the world.

You don't want people to attack you when they learn about your marriage. I know that the girl would get affected the most and likely to affect your whole career. You can keep the secret as long as you want. But you can't stop us from appreciating you.

I understand if you want to make the wedding simple, but don't you think that get married in Registration Office is too simple? It looks like you don't have family and friends to celebrate with you. You deserve walking down the aisle, having your maid in honours and bridesmaids, having your wedding reception.

You are guys are not just anyone, you are somebody. Our families have reputations Lily, so does the Jeons. Plus, you are the only one left in our family. Why can't we celebrate you guys? Just think about it, okay?"

Lisa nodded again and James left. She was feeling helpless, upset and sad. Luckily Louis was there to entertain her.

"Aunty, I want to brush your hair." Lisa laid Louis on her thigh and let him brush her hair. He was a little rough but his gesture made her calm for a moment.

She felt like talking to Jungkook that night.

Just in time, a notification came in.

JK: Are you sleeping?
