On the way back to her room, Lisa realised she was still holding Jungkook's hoodie. Remembering Jungkook earlier, she threw his hoodie to the ground.

Thud!

Something was in his hoodie. Quickly, she searched for the source of it. There it was the turtle food in the pocket. Thank goodness it didn't break. She picked up the hoodie and brushed away the dust. She put the close to her heart and brought it back to the hotel.

She waited for him in the lobby knowing that he will come back. Unknowingly, she slowly hugged the hoodie and kissed it. She lowered her head and reminiscing their memories.

"Lisa ssi..."

He sat in front of her.

"Are you okay?"

No response from her. She handed him his hoodie.

"Hold on... I'm sorry about last night."

Lisa just nodded and left the lobby.

That night, Lisa went to the lobby. She was looking for a magazine that she intended to read that day. When she entered the elevator to return to her room, her eyes caught Jungkook talking to his staff outside the building. As if controlled by something, her feet brought her to the secluded side of the glass wall near the roman pillar. There were not many lights were on. It was dark and she liked it.

Nobody can see her unless they deeply look at it. Lisa felt safe peeping over him from her position. He was getting ready to head home with his body half in the car.

He was wearing his black hoodie with his bucket hat on her head. His bunny smile invited a smile on her face. It was contagious. Her fingers then touched his face over the glass, imagined stroking his real face.

She looked like a madwoman, but it was satisfying for her. Letting out her longing in the most peculiar way.

Jungkook shook hands with the staff and left the hotel ground.

Lisa leaned her head against the glass wall and let out a sigh. Her hands' palms were facing the wall. Eyes closed preventing the tears from flowing.

Then,

There was a soft knock... she opened her eyes to meet a silhouette of a person.

Her eyes surrendered. Her tears flew like rainfall. With blurry eyes, she could recognize her Kookie looking at her. His eyes were filled with sympathy and love. He put his hands right across her hands and his forehead right across hers. She could say they were hugging only separated by the glass wall.

He was looking at her intently. He lowered his head and kissed her left palm and then her forehead. Lisa was too engrossed staring at him when he kissed her forehead.

He stood there, observing her reaction. He made a signal, asking her to not go anywhere.

He entered the lobby and went to her. He lifted his hand trying to wipe her tears. His hands on her face felt so good. It was so warm and soothing.

"Do you miss him?"

"Very much."

"May I know who's the lucky guy?"

The question that she wanted to avoid at all cost.

"He was unlucky. He got into an accident because if loving me."

"Where is he? Don't say that he's in your heart."

"He's there... but I can't get close to him. I can't talk to him... like other couples."
