Lost Memories | A Liskook Adaptation

Chapter 11: Between Time and Space

When Bambam reaches the top of the stairs, he spots Jungkook standing by the side of the wall smoking.

Bambam is still a little scared of this great detective, but he respects him a lot. He puts away his usual careless personality when he talks to Lisa and walls to him properly. He hands over the information, "Super Detective Jeon, these are the details of four additional suspects,"

Jungkook takes the files from him while holding his cigarette between his fingers, "Mm. "

He turns around and walks into the room. Bambam thinks for a minute and says, About that...... Super Detective Jeon"

Jungkook turns his head to the side to look at him.

"Our Leader has a bit of temper, but she's very nice and very knowledgeable. She has always admired you," he says quickly, so please don't mind. "

Jungkook glances at him, doesn't say a word, and walks into the room.

Bambam walks away cheerfully, believing that he has helped Leader to flatter this great detective.

He pushes the door open; the room is quiet. The sun shines into his eyes.

Jungkook raises his head and sees a tall figure standing beside Lisa's desk and bending over her. The sun shines on the two of them; he can just barely see Taehyung's refined side profile getting close to Lisa's cheek. He probably didn't think that anyone would suddenly come into the room at lunch time: Taehyung turns his head away instantly.

Their eyes meet.

Jungkook walks to his desk and sits without any expression. He throws the files onto the desk.

The office isn't big to begin with, so their desks are only a meter apart. Taehyung glances at Jungkook and slowly stands up straight. It's just that his handsome face is slightly red.

Jungkook lowers his head and starts reading the files as if the man in front of him does not exist.

"Boohoohoo......" a soft sound of crying suddenly breaks the awkward silence in the room.

The two men look toward the person who is making the noise Lisa.

The sun is shining directly on her face; a face that is pale and smooth like jade . Her dark eyebrows are scrunching slightly. Her expression looks sad; a drop of tear slowly runs down from her eye accompanied by the sound of crying in her dream.

Taehyung is a bit worried. He gets closer to her, bends down, and stares at her. Just when he wants to wipe away her tears with his hand, an impassive voice comes on, "She's already crying, and yet you still want to kiss her?"

Taehyung freezes and lifts his eyes to look at him. But Jungkook still has his head down reading the newspapers. He seems unconcerned, as if he doesn't care about what happens in the room.

Taehyung reaches out his hand and wipes away her tear anyway. Lisa, who is still in her dreams, seems to be able to feel the comfort from the outside world: she mumbles something softly, her eyebrows ease up, and she stops crying.

The door opens again with a loud thump. Bambam is here.

He immediately notices Leader sleeping peacefully while one man is sitting and the other is standing in silence. It feels a bit odd, but he doesn't put too much thought on it. He smiles at Taehyung, greeting him softly, and puts the file in his hand on Jungkook's desk, "Super Detective Jeon,, there's one more.

Taehyung picks up the lunch turns and leaves. He suddenly stops at the doorway and calls out, " Bambam."

"Hm?" Bambam looks at him quickly.
