They closed their eyes. Their lips were about to touch.
"Lisa, Jungkook"
"We weren't doing anything...Nancy?"
(Promise Chapter 18)
Omg! We're they about to kiss? Dang it, I ruined their moment.
"Sorry, did I interrupt you guys?" I apologized. They looked at each other, "No, it's fine. We were just sitting here" they laughed nervously.
Pfft, it's so obvious that you guys were about to kiss.
I chuckled.
"I came here to...apologize" I said, Lisa looked at me. I sat down on the couch. "When Daddy told me about the arranged marriage, I didn't care at first. But then, I saw Jungkook. Of course, I fell in love. I told my Dad I want to marry him. When we tried our outfits, I noticed you weren't having fun. I was sure that you were thinking of Lisa. I was pissed. Then, on the day of our wedding, you left. I realized that you and Lisa were meant to be. You even chased Lisa" I explained, they chuckled.
"I was selfish and wrong. I'm sorry"
"It's okay," they said and smiled.
When Lisa said that It's okay with a smile, I was like Wow~, Lisa is a great person.
Nancy apologized. I'm glad that everything turned out great. However, I feel like I'm blushing about what happened earlier. I can't even look at Lisa right now.
"Anyway, I want to invite you guys to my wedding," said Nancy, Lisa and I were shocked.
"W-wedding?" I stuttered.
Nancy nodded. "When you left the wedding, my childhood best friend came. He was from Canada. While I move on, he was there for me. Then, he told me that he likes me. You know how it is" she said, Lisa smiled. I looked at her.
"Pretty"
And so, Lisa and Jungkook agreed to attend Nancy's wedding. Everything was fine with Nancy and Mr. Jungin. They were glad that everything was okay. Except for one thing...
Rosé POV
I was laying down on my bed, thinking. Jimin went out today so he's not here. I was very confused. One time, Jimin said that he wants to get over something. Today, he went out. He was wearing very nice clothes. I can even smell perfume.
"Hey, where are you going?" I asked, sitting on the couch, watching a show.
"To meet...a friend" Jimin replied
He stuttered. I wonder what it was. He never goes out wearing nice clothes and perfume. I think he's going on a date.
Wait, why am I thinking about him? Stop it, Chaeyoung. You're weird.

I went to the rooftop to get some fresh air. I saw the apartment owner. I approached her.
"Excuse me, ma'am, since when did Jimin move here?" I asked her politely.
"Mmm, maybe 4 years ago" she replied.
"Was there a person who stayed in the other room before me?"
"Yes. It was a girl. She moved in here 3 years ago. Then last year, she moved out. I think it was Jimin's ex-girlfriend. I heard that she left Jimin"
"Oh"
"Dear, can you help me bring these boxes to my office?"
"Oh, sure" I helped her bring the boxes.
While I was carrying the boxes, I kept thinking about what she said earlier. Jimin had an ex-girlfriend? Is she the person who Jimin will meet today? I have no idea why but I felt heavy. I have so many questions.
Chaeng, don't tell me you like him.
"You can place them here, thank you very much" the owner stopped me from thinking.
"Oh, no problem," I said and smiled. I went back to my room.
"Park Chaeyoung, you do not like him. Let's just go to the mall and forget about it" me talking to myself.
If you're wondering what happened to Jennie and Taehyung, well, things went nicely.
The day when Jennie got drunk
They were sitting in the kitchen counter. "Yeah, don't let strangers enter your room. That guy was trying to-" Taehyung scolding Jennie, she cuts him off. "Water... I want water" said Jennie. Taehyung sighed and gave her water.
Jennie couldn't drink properly, she was too drunk. "Here", Taehyung holds the cup and pats Jennie's back.
"Why were you drinking alone? Did something happen?" Taehyung asked.
"Nothing, it's just that my crush...had a datE with anOther giRl"
"Oh, you have a crush..." said Taehyung, sadly.
"Stand up" said Taehyung. He holds Jennie's waist as she gets off of her seat. The chair was a little high soooo ;).
Taehyung was placing his arm on Jennie's shoulder, helping her walk. Jennie too. Jennie lays down on her bed. Taehyung breathes.
"You go rest, I'll go now" said Taehyung. He opens the door but Jennie grabbed his wrist.
"Stay" Jennie whispered.
Taehyung smiled and nodded, "Okay".
I was inside the car with Jin Hyung going home. I still couldn't stop thinking about what happened earlier. We almost kissed. After many tries, I finally confessed to her. No distractions or anything.
"Ooooo why is kookie smiling?" Jin Hyung teasing.
"Shush it" I said. He chuckled.

I haven't told Lisa that I remember her. Maybe later. Suddenly, Dad pops up in my mind. I wonder how he's doing.
"Let's visit Dad" I said. Jin Hyung smiled.
"My sons" said Mr. Jungin, "Hi Dad" said Jin, Jungkook just smiled. "Listen, I'm very sorry. I was selfish and rude. I'm sorry I dragged you into this. I'll try to change for the better" said Mr. Jungin. Jungkook glanced at him. "Jin, will you excuse us for a moment?", "Sure".
"Jungkook..." Mr. Jungin tries to talk to Jungkook. He wasn't looking at Mr. Jungin. "I know you're angry. Please forgive me. I was wrong. Lisa is a very nice girl. After all the things that I did to her and her family, she still forgave me. To pay her back, I'll let her be with you" said Mr. Jungin, Jungkook looks at him.
"What do you mean?" Jungkook asked.
"I saw your upcoming project. The idea you and Lisa worked with. It was amazing. Separating you and Lisa from each other was wrong. That's why from now on, Lisa will be working with you" said Mr. Jungin, Jungkook smiles and said, "I forgive you". Jin was watching, he smiles.
Days later, Lisa and Jungkook started on they're new project. They've never been more closer. They still text each other at midnight. "Lisa, it's 3 am. Why are you giggling?" Jisoo woke up. "Huh? It's nothing" Lisa hides her phone. Jisoo smirks, "You're talking with Jungkook, eh?". Jisoo laughs, "Okay okay, I'll leave you two alone".
Lisa POV
After many years, I've waited for you. I've always wanted it to be like this. Us hanging out, being closer than ever. I missed you so much. I hope you kept your promise.
Everyone was whispering at work. "Look at Jungkook and Lisa", "They look so cute together while working", "I swear, after this project, they're gonna start dating".
"Ohh I see" said Jungkook, he smiles. Lisa stares at him.
"I like you too".
"Everyone!!" Jungkook came out of his office, shouting. Everyone looked.
"Our product got sold out in just a few hours. Now our company has the highest rates ***** here in Seoul!!"
Everyone claps and cheers when they heard the big news. Meanwhile Jungkook and Lisa...
Everyone inside started teasing them. " Kiss, kiss, kiss" they chanted. Jungkook looks at Lisa and leans closer. "Woops, save it for next time" Lisa covers his mouth, then holds his cheeks. They both giggled.
"Ms. Manoban, something happened" three employees appeared to Lisa, looking worried. "Why what is it?", "It's Mr. Jeon",
" He said he was just gonna go to the park. He always comes back after 2 hours but now he's been gone for 5 hours" the employees said.
"Why did he leave without telling me?" Lisa whispered. "Have you tried calling him?", " He won't answer. He didn't take the guards with him".
"Okay, stay here, I'll tell you when to call the cops. I'm gonna find him" Lisa rushed.
After Lisa left, all the employees were giggling.
Jungkook where are you??? I can't lose you again. Why did he go out by himself, gosh.
I arrived at the park. No one was there. Not even a single soul.
"Weird", I whispered.
I found a note on a bench.
Looking for Jungkook?
There was another note on the other bench. Each bench there was a note, leading Lisa to a place.
The last note says,
"Look up"
Lisa looks up. She gasped.
"He remembers it" Lisa whispered.
It led her to the playground where she and Jungkook met. The pictures were hanging at the swing.
Lisa was smiling very brightly as she looks at the pictures. Someone tapped her shoulder. Lisa turns around.
"Jungkook"
"Don't cry"
Jungkook wipes Lisa's tears off. They smiled.
"Many years ago, you and I met at this exact same spot. This is where you saved me from those bullies. You were my one and only friend. This is where I left too...I promised that I will remember you. And I broke it. Now, I am here to restore my promise" Jungkook holding Lisa's hands.
"I missed you, Lalisa Manoban"
He said. Lisa smiles.
"I'm glad you remember me again" she said and hugs Jungkook. He hugged back.
Everyone came out, cheering and clapping. The boys and girls were there too.
"Oh my, they were in this too?" Lisa surprised.
They all nodded.
"Wait, there's something one more thing" said Jungkook.
"What is it?"
"Remember I confessed to you the other day? I want to know your reply" Jungkook speaking slowly.
"Well... I do like you too" Lisa said shyly.
They both smiled. Everyone started teasing.
"Well? Go date already!!! Date, date, date" Jin started to chant. Everyone joins.
"What do you say?"
Lisa hugs Jungkook.
"I'd love to be Mr. Jeon's girlfriend"
They both smiled. It started raining. Everybody brings their umbrella out.
"No kiss?" said Jisoo.
"Well, maybe-"
"Sorry, I couldn't wait" said Jungkook.
They all teased and smiled.

The Sun's Remnant
Two people are transported to a world with magic, but it is no Wonderland. When the god of light died, he decided to take the world with him. At least, that’s what many believe in the Kingdom of Rhine, a once vast kingdom of which only a small corner remains — and even that is threatened. On one side, by the Twisted Forest, a corruption spreading from the deathplace of the gods that has already swallowed up most of Rhine. On the other, by the resurgent Kagrathan Empire, resurrected by the infallible God-Emperor Karlatz. A holy order of knights carry out their mission despite the death of their god. A band of talented misfits prepare for a heist out of their league — by stealing. Mages hunt for secrets even as the world ends. A ruler does what must be done to save the living, no matter the cost. Into this world of magic and murder, two adrift souls are inexplicably dragged: a mother estranged from her young daughter due to her own mistakes, and a young man with a love of fantasy who has gradually drifted away from his friends and family. As they each struggle to find their place in this world, they must also answer the question: do they want one?***Content Warning: I've drafted about 100,000 words (most of the first volume), and there is no sexual content so far, though I may add it in the future. There is occasionally gore and traumatising content as the story demands. I commit to keeping all of the above non-voyeuristic. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
