How Long Will I Love You?

About Time

All laboratory results came back normal but Sangyun and the rest of the medical team insisted that Sungjae and Joy should stay for another day at the facility, that way they can also keep a closer eye on them while Got7 together with Seung-gi, Huta and Peniel searched the island.

Joy slept most of the day after a hearty meal which worried Sungjae but Sangyun explained and reassured him that her body was trying to cope up and recover from shock and the drug and that he has nothing to worry about.

Sungjae then decided to prepare an event for Joy while she rests. With all the happenings in the island and the misfortunes Joy has to go through, from three years ago and at present, he wants to do something for her that will only remind her of something good and magical when she thinks of B Island. He fixed his gaze at the ring on a necklace dangling in his hand; it was similar to what he was wearing around his neck hidden under his shirt. He smiled at himself as he carefully placed it in a case and then kept it in his pocket. I hope she'll like it.

"What is this Sungjae~ah? A proposal?" Eunkwang teased him as they stood watching the breath-taking view of the island from the rooftop.

"Don't you think it's a bit too early for that though?" Changsub asked while enjoying his coffee.

"No. It's not like that bro... It's a promise ring." He played with the case in his pocket as he explained. "I've been meaning to give it to her since three years ago but then things happened and I was not given the chance to do so." He said sadly as he looked around the decorated rooftop thanks to RV and BTOB's help.

RV members which include Eunwoo was checking and finalizing the placement of cameras that they installed to capture and record the event. Sungjae was in awe at how fast and how good RV works when it comes to event preparations. The rooftop was transformed into a cozy and intimate space for the couple. Tiny lights surrounded the rooftop railings while different shapes and sizes of candle led light were scattered around the rooftop to brighten the area. A loveseat was placed in one corner overlooking the majestic view of the ocean and some parts of the island. On the opposite side were a grand piano and a comfortable chaise lounge.

As dusk fell across the island, bonfires and lights came to life. Everything was in order and ready so the others decided to gather in a room just below the venue while pretending to do their own stuffs as if they were busy, leaving Sungjae alone at the rooftop. They were trying to give the couple some privacy but in reality they were actually secretly watching the scene from the rooftop through a number of monitors in the room.

Sungjae who was waiting for Joy was getting nervous as the clock ticks.

"Ahh, what do I do? Why am I trembling?" He sat at the loveseat while he tried to calm himself.

"What will she think about the event?" He stood up and leaned on the railings while tapping his foot.

"Ah, really~ what should I tell her? How should I start?" He walked towards the grand piano and zoned out.

"Wah... So events like this... makes a person... ugh –" He leaned on the piano keys, hiding his face, and sighed loudly. "Breathe Sungjae...one... two... three... Yook can do it!"

Meanwhile, in the control room of the rooftop cameras...

"Could anyone explain to me what is he doing?" Wendy who was focused in front of the monitors asked after noticing Sungjae who can't keep still.

"It's actually my first time seeing him like that... I think he's nervous." Eunkwang answered as he stood next to Wendy.

"Yes. He is obviously nervous." Changsub chuckled as he joined the two in front of the monitor.
