While Lisa and Jennie were walking along the school hallway, Lisa cough suddenly. Jennie stretched out her arm and grasps the forehead of Lisa; then checked its temperature.

"You've been coughing since yesterday. I think you have a fever. What did you do yesterday?!". Jennie said worriedly to Lisa.

"Nothing. Aside from being not with you", Lisa jokingly said then chuckles.

"That was so smooth!", Rosé spoke suddenly at their back while Jisoo besides her walk closer to Lisa.."You're such a hoe", Jisoo whispered at her then giggled.

Lisa widen her eyes on what Jisoo said.

"Yah Unnie! Stop what you're talking about?!" Lisa scratched her head because of embarrassment.

"You should go see a doctor", Jennie ordered to Lisa.

"But Jennie........no doctor could help a lovesick girl!" Jisoo giggled.

"Yah! Unnie stop teasing me! And Jennie come with me to the clinic", Lisa said compulsively.

"What? Are you a little kid?! Lisa you were born to be alone!", said Rosé trying not to laugh while teasing the girl.

Lisa glared her eyes to Jisoo and Rosé that are now laughing out loud.

"You guys want to die, right now?! Will you please go away.......both of you?", as Lisa said and get pissed off to her friends.

"Okay! Okay. Chill out, love sick girl. We Will go now  inside the classroom", Jisoo smiled and winked to Lisa.

"Bye Jennie Unnie! And Lisa stop blushing, you're so obvious!", Rosé chuckles.

The two girls walked away from them and went inside the classroom. Jennie laughed to the girls' craziness then look back to Lisa that is next to her.

"I have to study", Jennie said.

Lisa looks seriously to Jennie. "Until when?! Until 10:00 PM at the evening again!? Just study at home!".

"I go to the library everyday. What's wrong with you?" Jennie confusingly said and furrowed her eyebrows to Lisa's sudden acting strange.

Lisa remembered about yesterday that she's not with Jennie at the library. That Jennie didn't even tell her about it."Because I was with you every time!", as Lisa shouted that made Jennie startled. The two girls become silent and no one dare to speak at this moment. Then Lisa clear her throat and immediately change their conversation.

"Wha~whatever the bike......Y~you have to bring my bike anyway, since I can't ride it because I'm not feeling well. When it gets dark while your riding, you might fall and hurt your legs. What are you going to do then?!", Lisa stuttering while explaining to Jennie.

Jennie didn't understand what Lisa been saying coz the girl talks so fast." What? Hurry and go! Geez! go! ", Jennie just said it and pushes Lisa. Then, the girls started to walked towards the clinic.

After school, Lisa bid goodbye to Jennie and went home first. While Jennie will go at the library to study.

An hour passed and it's already late at the evening. Jennie notice the time on her phone; its 10:33 PM that's why she needs to go home now. She went outside the school and go where the bicycle being parked.

She's about to unlock the bicycle's wheel, and then suddenly the rain falls down and Jennie feels shocked when she didn't felt any single drop of it.

Then, she realized that Kai was there; holding an umbrella while smiling at her. "You don't have an umbrella, do you? It was worthwhile waiting for you. It's about time I look cool", said Kai trying to impressed Jennie.

"Did I tell you that you're really cheesy?", Jennie said and still looking to the boy.

"You mean, you're heart fluttered again, right?", Kai said smilingly then Jennie continued unlocking the bicycle. "Do you want to leave that bike and walk with me? Let's walk together", Kai added and Jennie agreed to it.

The two shared in one umbrella and walk home in the rain. Both were having a nice conversation and laughing together. The rain stops and Jennie is already in front of their house.

"Thanks for today. Bye. I'm going in", Jennie said and waved her hand to the boy. But when she's about to go inside, Kai speaks again.

"By any chance.......Can you answer my question today?" he asked.

"What is it?", asked Jennie.

"On my first day, we met at the back of the school wall. Since then, we accidentally met a few times, I asked you questions and we laughed together. It was all my expression of my feelings for you. I thought you knew. Maybe I should've just kept it short.....I like you. Do you want to go out with me?", as Kai confessed her feelings to Jennie. But Jennie didn't say any words to Kai. She was surprised on the boy's confession. After hearing that, she just looked into Lisa's house and thinks about her.

Lisa's POV

I felt uneasy and can't sleep early because of Jennie. It's already 10:00 PM but Jennie still not going home. Then the rain began to fall that makes me more worried at her. Even though I'm not feeling well, I get the umbrella and go back to school. I run fast as I could to fetch her immediately. I don't mind getting soaked in the rain. I only think of Jennie. Only her.

But unexpectedly, I saw Kai holding an umbrella and standing in front of Jennie. I was surprised on what I'm seeing right now– a painful view.

(Play the song entitled: It Will Rain by Bruno Mars.)

If you ever leave me, baby
Leave some morphine at my door
'Cause it would take a whole lot of medication
To realize what we used to have
We don't have it anymore...

My body froze; then I clenched my hands while holding the umbrella. I bit my lower lip to held the tears that may come out. I'm getting pissed off and this view makes my heart feels like it will going to burst at this very moment. I can't explain what's happening to me.

There's no religion that could save me
No matter how long my knees are on the floor
So keep in mind all the sacrifices I'm makin'
To keep you by my side
To keep you from walkin' out the door

"What is this feeling?! Am I hurting? No, no....It cannot be. Why I'm being like this?!", whisperingly I questioned myself.

'Cause there'll be no sunlight
If I lose you, baby
There'll be no clear skies
If I lose you, baby
Just like the clouds
My eyes will do the same if you walk away
Everyday it'll rain, rain, ra-a-a-ain........

This is the first time I felt sad and being hurt at the same time. Then, I quietly turn my back away from them and go somewhere else.
