The sun is blazing and the cars around them are still honking.

Lisa hugs Jungkook while watching the cars drive past them; many people are turning and looking at them. And not far away, a policeman is walking quickly towards them.

Lisa's tears slowly stop flowing.

She was crying simply out of reflex. Hearing Jungkook recite that phrase and seeing his watery eyes, she couldn't think clearly of the outcome and the Iogic behind what was happening; a kind of unexplainahle pain surging up her heart. And as a result, her tears began to flow. And now, her emotions gradually calmed down.

An unthinkable conclusion also floats clearly into her mind.

But..how is it possible?

She knows that he has a fiancé. She can also guess that the person that he has been looking for all these years is his fiancé. But she has never once connected herself with this person.

Yet Jungkook has just recited the exact words that her fiancé said in her dreams.

She suddenly recalls the time when she first met Jungkook. He was sitting behind the screen at the Su Se Nightclub; proud, aloof, and still.

He pinned her down on the ground. His eyes were cold like ice.....she knew very well in her heart that this arrogant and obstinate man had already captured her eyes.

She also recalls the day when they were running on the rooftop; the blurry memories and pain that drowned her suddenly.

She even recalls the time when she saw him via video conferencing while she was far away at Jiangcheng and the voice came to her head: No matter where you go. I will find you in the crowd.

All this time, he has only made her think of another person. But...... what if that person is him? Her heart pounds heavily. But many doubts and suspicions are occupying her heart. All she can do is turn around and stare at the side of his face.

"......Why?"

What is the reason for all of this?

Jungkook lets go of her slowly while still grabbing onto her shoulders. He stares at her at a close distance.

The traffic policeman has already made it to the side of their car, knocking at their window, "What's the matter?"

Jungkook lets out his breath slowly. He takes a look at her, lets go of her shoulders and takes out his identification card for the traffic policeman to see.

"Everything is fine. I'll move the car now," his voice is a little raspy as usual.

The officer nods and backs away.

Lisa stares at him and doesn't say anything. He turns to look at her again. With one hand on the steering wheel, he grabs her hand with his other,

"Let's go home first," he says.

"Mmm.."

The land rover makes its way back onto the road.

He's quiet throughout the whole ride. His eyes are looking straight; not sure what he's thinking about. But he doesn't let go of her hand all this time. And Lisa's heart is in a mess: more doubts and suspicions arise. The more she thinks about it, the more she can't believe what's happening. She can't think clearly.

They soon arrive at the station. The road on the right leads to the policemen dormitory. Lisa is looking out the window when she suddenly notices that the car isn't making a turn; it's heading straight.
