Lisa's POV

I stopped my motorcycle on the side and took my helmet off. Jennie got off the vehicle first then I followed. I looked at her as she looked around, it was nothing to see really, just a field of grass in a high place.

as soon as I placed my helmet on the compartment I went over to her and started removing hers.

"where did you take me huh?" she says looking straightly at me, our faces we're a few inches away since I couldn't remove the buckle under her chin.

"you'll see" I said as I took the helmet from her head. I also placed it inside the compartment, I took something from there then walked to the field of grass.

I knew Jennie would follow and when I found a good spot, I placed the huge blanket down on the ground.

"you took me with you to stargaze?" She asked while I laid on the soft blanket and placed my arms behind my head.

"pretty much..." I replied. I saw her rolling her eyes but smiling right after before she laid down beside me with her hands resting on her stomach. It looked uncomfortable for her since there wasn't a pillow so I extended my arm which made her look at me confusingly.

"use my arm as your pillow" I told her. "but you'll get numb" she says but I just shook my head and lifted her head with my other hand gently as I laid her head on my arm.

"there, much better" I told her and went back to star gazing. I thought that it would be nice to do it since the stars are so bright tonight.

"Lisa..." I looked at my side to look at her, she was just staring up in tbe skies.

"hmm?"

"I just wanted to say thank you..." My eyebrows knitted with what she said. "why? as far as I know I just took you to lay on the ground and watch the stars." I replied.

"exactly, you're making my wishes come true..." she says which made me speechless. "It's even funny because I never even told you any of my wishes like riding a motorcycle for the first time, going to an amusement park again without the fear of riding any extreme rides, and stargazing with someone special to me..." the last phrase she said made me surprised.

"I'm special to you?" I asked. she looked at her side, now we're looking at each other. She smiled while nodding, "ofcourse you are grumpy iceberg" she giggled which made me break into a smile.

"no one have said that to me...." I confessed, and she looked at me with a frown. "well, remember this Lisa Manoban, you're always special to Jennie Kim because you will always be her walking iceberg" she chuckled which made me roll my eyes but chuckle right after too.

"crazy annoying dumpling" I said and looked at the stars again.

"silly grumpy iceberg" she shot back which made me smile on the inside.

"Jennie, can I ask you one thing?"

"what is it?"

"what was the paper you dropped the last time I saw you in the hospital?" I asked. She suddenly became silent, hesitating whether to say something.

she sat up and I did too. The reason why I brought that topic up is because this was the jacket she was wearing the day I saw her at the hospital.

"hmm, it's embarrassing really..." she chuckled and pulled something out of the pocket of her jacket. It was the piece of paper.

she handed it to me then she hugged her knees. I opened it up and it was her bucket list, I started reading down the list and some of it made me chuckle and some of it made me surprised.

"so I really did make some of your wish come true?" I asked and she nodded at me with her priceless smile.

We stopped over at a 24/7 convenience nearby. We went in and grabbed some snacks since we're both feeling a bit hungry.

"so you're telling me that you haven't experienced most of these stuff in here that most people most likely already did when they were young?" I said while taking a chip from the bag.

"there's a word 'strict parents' genius..." she shot back.

"okay but why?"

"my parents have always been so protective of me because of one reason...."

"and that is?"

"uhmm...I'm only heir to the family business?" My brows arched when that came out of her mouth like a question rather than a statement.

"are you sure?" I said trying to hold my laugh since I think that she's not serious about it.

"well yeah! why would I lie? even ask Rosé and Jisoo, they know that we have a family business" she defended. a bit too defensive I must say.

"I believe you don't worry, I just don't think that that's the only reason" I replied which made her go silent.

We came back to her apartment at 11:00 pm, she's looking really drowsy now, Probably tired from today.

"thanks again, Lisa...I had a great time" she says. I just nodded and smiled.

"By the way, before you go....can I have this?" I asked her as I showed her the paper. She narrowed her eyes on me getting suspicious of what I told her.

"what are you planning huh?" she asked with her arms crossed. I just grinned at her and looked at the stars.

"only the stars know" I looked at her and winked. she just shook her head and chuckled softly.

"you really are a silly iceberg huh?" she says while leaning on the wall.

"I'll take that as a compliment, dumpling. I got to go now though, I'll take this with me aight?"

"okay...okay, it's not like I have a choice, it's already on your hand" she says as I hopped on my bike.

"actually, you do...unlike you, I actually give people a chance to say no." I chuckled but she just chuckled at what I said.

"whatever, grumpy iceberg. Have a good night and see you tomorrow" she says and smiled. I put my helmet on then waved her goodbye before driving away.

I laid on my bed and took out the Jennie's list. There's a lot written here now that I could read it clearly.

I know I said that I don't care about her but something's pulling me to make this all happen just to see her happy. She's literally like a magnet pulling me in.

I got up from my seat when I read a particular activity from the list. I immediately got up from my bed and went straight to my desktop to check on the web.

as soon as I saw what I wanted to see, I felt like the luckiest person in the world.
