I quietly pushed the door of Reese's room. There I saw my sister playing with her cats and giving them treats too. I heavily sighed as I stare at her. Her hair is covered with this silk cloth like the last time I saw her. But she's getting thinner and tinier. Her jawline is more prominent and her cheekbones too. Her skin looks so pale and damn, I can't even stare at her for too long.

I looked up, stopping those tears trying to escape from my eyes. Hell no, I ain't crying tonight. The revelations that Jisoo told me is enough. Knowing Jungkook went through a drastic tragedy is making me think twice to leave again. My loneliness and regrets when I left just became worse when I knew about what he went through.

Seeing how Jisoo trembled while recalling those hopeless times is like me right now. The way she feared for her brother's life is exactly what I am feeling right now. I sighed and brushed my sleeve against my eyes and finally knocked on her door.

"Hi, Princess." I greeted with a small smile. She lifted her head up with a wide smile, almost closing her eyes. She is sitting on the carpeted floor playing with her four cats. She reached for the chair to help herself up but I made big steps to immediately reach her. "No, no. Stay down. It's okay." I said and helps her sit down on the pillow on the floor. I sat beside her too and looked at the playing cats around her.

She smiled and looked at me. "What happened? You got scratches." She said and her eyes darted on the visible wrapped bandage on my shoulder. "What happened, Lisa?"

"No biggie." I answered and crunch my nose. "Just crashed Mr. Kang's car yesterday."

"Oh, my God. You drove? Lisa, what happened? Tell me." She said, squeezing my hand. "Mr. Kang is supposed to drive you anywhere. Wait, can you get my phone? No, let me--"

"Hey." I called and stopped her from getting up the floor. "Relax, grumpy Princess. It wasn't his fault. I demanded to get the car. Don't fire the guy. He's good at his job."

She released a heavy sigh. "It's just-- I'm worried."

"Yah. I'm tougher than you think. I'll survive." I answered and smirked. "How's you? I mean-- did you ask Dr. Jung out already?"

She smiled and nodded. "But I wasn't the one who asked. It's him, okay?"

I rolled my eyes. "He should! We had a chat the last time I visited you. He said, he fell in love with you when you're still in College."

She shrugged. "I kinda know that." She answered and looks at me. "We-- we just didn't talked about it too much. We'd rather spend more time with each other and just-- let things happen." She continued as she tickles the chin of the other cat sitting on her lap.

"How did he take it when you got married?" I asked, making her pause from scratching her cat's head and weakly smiled.

"He went to my apartment the night before my wedding." She said and continued playing with her cat. "He's drunk and he asked me to run away."
