Lost Memories | A Liskook Adaptation

Chapter 68: A Profile within the Profile Part 1.

The Land Rover is on its way to the suburbs.

Jungkook has both hands on the wheel with his eyes looking straight. After receiving the call about another female victim's body has been found, he has been carrying a grim expression on his face. Lisa is sitting in the passenger seat with her arms crossed and also has an indifferent expression. After a while, she notices Jungkook moving with the corner of her eye.

She shifts her gaze and sees that he still has a stark expression on his face. One of his hands is on the steering wheel while the other is reaching into his pocket. He fetches for a while and then pauses.

He then puts his hand back onto the steering wheel.

Watching these subtle movements of his, Lisa smiles slightly. She tosses the troubling case to the back of her mind for the time being and asks while looking at him from the side. "You want a smoke?" She empathizes him.

But he glances at her and answers, "Yes, but not as much as you do."

Lisa hums."..... hmph!"

She lowers her head and starts flipping through the things in her bag. Her eves gleam she fetches a pack of betel nuts.

She puts one in her mouth and starts chewing on it enjoyably. Although it's not as satisfying as smoking a cigarette, at least it helps decrease her cravings a bit.

The interior of the car is soon permeated with the smell of betel nuts.

"Give me one." Jungkook says.

Lisa holds onto the pack of betel nuts tightly and crosses her legs, "You wish! You snatched my cigarettes yesterday and now you want to eat my betel nuts?"

Jungkook smiles seeing her like this and doesn't insist to eat them.

After driving for another while, he asks suddenly, "Can you take a look at the rear mirror for me? Is it slanted?"

Lisa gets serious upon hearing him. She pokes her head around to examine the right back side of the mirror, "It's not slanted."

"How about this side?"

The car slows to a stop as the traffic lights turn red. Lisa stretches over to his side to look. Her face is very close to his, "Let me see......"

Before she finishes her sentence, Jungkook lowers his head and kisses her. Without taking half a second break, his tongue pries into her mouth as he sucks her lips vigorously.

"Mm...... "Lisa realizes his motive, so she smiles and attempts to push him away, "How can someone be like this? Just because I don't let you have any, you want to take it by force?..... She feels him grabbing onto her waist tighter. She also can't dodge away from his lips and is being sucked on even harder.

"Focus on driving!" she scoffs.

"It's fine....." he says biting on her lips. "Aren't I Brother Thirteen? I can close my eyes driving on this kind of road." (Chp 13-a poetic name that stands for being able to finish a lap on the Second Ring Road in thirteen minutes, passing two-hundred cars a minute. )

"I'm wrong! I'm wrong!" Lisa says helplessly, "I'll give you the betel nuts."

Jungkook releases her finally and puts his hands hack onto the steering wheel looking straight. The lights turn green at the same time and the car starts moving forward. Lisa lets out a loud "Hmph," but he has a smile on his face.

Lisa peels a hetel nut and stuffs it into his mouth. They each chew on their betel nuts quietly. The intense mood in the car from before has loosened up a bit.
