Contrary to popular belief, Lisa was one hundred percent an extrovert and sincerely enjoyed hanging out with all sorts of people, creating new bounds from time to time. The only thing concealing her extroverted nature was the fact, that she was a workaholic and barely made time to focus on her friendships. It was hard balancing school, work and other activities as all three of them were heavily time consuming. As often as she could, Lisa tried to strengthen her friendships, but there were limited chances for that. Other than a stressful schedule, the past four years were rough time for her - at first it was hard to meet new people, since Lisa was still clinging to the person that left her. Things turned out for the better lastly, Lisa was able to live her life normally again - at least she claimed that.

As of the moment, she not only jumped out of her comfort zone, but also came face to face with another reason to conceal her true nature. Lisa was surrounded by strangers, minus Jennie, not just any strangers, but influential ones at that. None of them threatened her, they even introduced themselves to her in a polite manner and seemed welcoming in weird kind of way. It only came off as weird to her, because she felt threatened regardless and with Jungkook sitting right in front of her the feeling of irritation grew steadily.

Lisa stopped fidgeting with her hands and slowly lifted her head to look at what Jungkook was doing. She was already sitting there, no going back on her decision, and the only option was to take whatever she could get her hands on.

Unfortunately, she did not calculate his sharp senses and immediately noticed Jungkook's eyes on her. Right there the cold in his eyes felt similar to an icy territory that was about to cage her, not a shred of mercy was visible in them. Luckily, this was not the first time Lisa had to hold his cold gaze, therefore the low temperature he made her feel did not intimidate her much. It was still somewhat overwhelming, but nothing she could not handle. Lisa held his gaze and stared back in an almost challenging way, causing him to raise his eyebrows in mild surprise.

It was only when she heard someone speak up, that Lisa averted her gaze from him.

"Now that I get to see you up close, I do remember your face," Namjoon said and pointed a finger at Lisa in realization. "You're in my english class, aren't you?"

Lisa was surprised to hear, that he recognized her, since she was not that remarkable. She did not know why, but him particularly remembering her felt like a praise - perhaps because he was among the five best graded students in Seoul. A smile spread on her lips and she nodded.

"That's true, my seat is right next to Roseanne Park," Lisa told him and saw him hum in response, acknowledging. What she did not expect was him smiling at her charmingly and making a certain suggestion.

"Why don't you join me in the front row next time?," he offered her in his polite but charming manner.

"Uhh getting to sit next to mister big brain? Don't miss this chance," Jennie commented, winking at Lisa, while getting a fashion magazine out of her bag and slammed it on the table. She pulled at Taehyung's sleeve, which was an easy task considering the fact that Jennie was seated in between Lisa and Taehyung. Taehyung stopped talking to Jimin in front of him and both turned to look at Jennie.
