Jennie's birthday party was rapidly approaching and, in the days prior to it, the brunette seemed to be too occupied with its organization to notice anything that was happening around her.
And with Jennie's "absence", it seemed like the group had distanced itself.
They no longer ate lunch together nor waited for each other at the end of classes.
For a short period of time, it felt like those fifteen years of friendship had vanished in a couple of seconds, leaving behind four extremely confused but-too-proud-to-say-anything girls.
It wasn't like nobody of them had failed to notice it, they just chose to ignore the situation, like they were used to doing with a lot of their other problems.
Jisoo had seen Jennie and Rosé talking in the hallway one day, but she was quick to do a u-turn and avert the girls. That was about the most interaction her and Rosé had after Jennie's birthday.
Even though she was the one who had called their friendship quits, she couldn't help but be a little hurt that Chaeyoung hadn't tried contacting or approaching her in any way.
It made her think that maybe the blonde was happy about the situation. Or that she hadn't understood the seriousness behind her words that night at Jennie's house.
Lisa, on the other hand, had taken Jennie's lack of presence in the last days as an opportunity to clear her head and try to focus on school for once.
That's why she scheduled a session with Soojin.
She had found herself weirdly looking forward to it, her eyes glancing at the clock on her last period classroom a little too much to camouflage it as wanting to go home.
They had agreed to meet at the school library after school.
Lisa, who had skipped lunch to avoid Jennie, decided to pass by the cafe just outside of the school perimeters to grab something to eat. And maybe a coffee for the girl who was probably already waiting for her at the library.
That would make up for her being late, she though and hoped.
As soon as she stepped inside the coffee shop she noticed two familiar figures in the back, chatting and drinking coffee.
The girl had her back towards her, so she couldn't quite make out who she was, but as soon as she heard the sound of ice hitting hard plastic when she carelessly moved the cup in circular motions, Lisa froze.
Iced coffee. Jennie's drink. The only person who would order such drink on January and actually enjoy it.
The other person she was with was Taehyung.
Another reason to avoid them, Lisa thought while scoffing.
When the person in line in front of her was finally done with their order, she quickly took their place and ordered, careful not to speak too loud.
She waited a couple of minutes, staring so hard at the menu that was hanged behind the barista station that she had it almost memorized.
Everything was going according plans, all she had left to do was quietly take her orders when they'd call her name and leave.
"Two coffees, one muffin for Lisa! I repeat Lisa!" The barista almost shouted.
Lisa's face became red.
How could she be so stupid to give her name. Jisoo was right, she truly was dumb sometimes. Lisa thought, before hurriedly going to take her order and prevent the loud barista to shout her name one more time.
"Lisa!" A male voice called for her. This time, though, it didn't come from the barista.
Taehyung had stood up from his chair and indicated for Lisa to make her way where he was with a movement of his hand.
