I am staring at Lisa beside me, her head is rested on my arm and the other is playing with her hand. She talking about her memories when she used to live in Seoul when they were younger. And I am half-listening to be honest, I spent most of the time staring at her.

"-- so, she never went out of the house. She usually stays in our basement, the laboratory it's what I call it to make her immune system as stable as possible." She said and looks at me.

"Maybe that's why I never saw her too when I was picking you up from your street." I said and she nodded.

"Yeah. But sometimes, we go out too. At night, of course. I take her to our roof to watch the stars like this." She said again and looks at the sky. "I love her so much, it's just that I had to leave too because the Continental might go after them. Besides, my Mom and Dad aren't in good terms back then. When I flew back to Bangkok to be with my grandparents, Dad followed me home. And that's when we settled down to forget about Seoul." She said and looks at me. "You're not listening."

"I am, I am listening." I answered and reached her lip for a quick kiss. "How's your Dad, by the way."

She lowered her gaze. "Mom is not letting me see him. It was like a punishment because I screwed up with the Playing Princess. And I had to close deals as much as I can for her to let me see him. She's really cruel. I don't know why Reese chose to stay with her." She answered and sighed.

"Would you like me to help?" I asked, making her shoot her gaze to me with her wide brown eyes. "I can talk to your Mom."

She blinked several times. "What are you going to tell her?" She asked and frowned her forehead. "No, you will not going to tell her why I screwed up with the Playing Princess. Forget it, I can close deals for her." Then she released a frustrated sigh. "Damn, she's playing same games to me like how she does to Reese."

"You'll see him soon too. You're really good at doing this. I mean, being the director like how Reese do it." I said, this time my attention is on tracing those little freckles on her cheek.

"Not as good as Reese. You know one day, the Playing Princess will have to stop. And I had to leave." She answered, making me pause from touching her face. She noticed that and looks at me.

"Y-you're leaving again?" I asked, lifting my back to look at her.

She smiled weakly. "I can't do the Playing Princess forever, Jungkook. I am not her. I have a life in Bangkok too."

I released a sigh. "Of course."

"But I am not technically leaving you. That doesn't mean I can't come back, aren't I?" She said, making me weakly smile and nodded. "I mean -- it's 2020. Heard about phones and calls?"
