STILL THE BACKSTORY..
"What the heck Jennie?!" I almost choke from my cheesy flavored chips I'm munching and Wendy quickly hands me some tissue. While Irene's jaw drop in shock, all our eyes quickly shooting at Chaeyoung's reaction. Because of what I told them.
"Sorry for startling you all, I was just astounded and disappointed at her. Please don't tell me there's no Jenlisa content anymore." Chaeng quickly explains and pouts.
Yesterday was the most awkward and embarrassing moment I had with Lisa. After my confession. She didn't utter any word. No expression. Literally none. We rode in silence and when I stepped my feet on the ground, she drove off like a mad woman without glancing at me. Hurt instantly lingered in my chest so bad when she left me with questions I couldn't even answer on my own. One moment we're fine, then we're not. What about when she helped me when I tripped? The way she waited for me going to school everyday? The way she protected me from danger? Or when she said she hated to see me cry? Every bond that we had was what for her? Is she really annoyed to me all along? Am I just assuming things will be better for us? Oh right, there's no 'us' in the first place.
If she doesn't like me, even a bit.. she could've just told me right away. I always thought that maybe, just maybe there's a chance that we could get along. But instead, she keeps pushing me away everytime I try to get in. I was just being bold to tell her my feelings though, I'm not even expecting her to feel the same way. Okay.. there's a tiny, tiny, tiny part of me that I wish we are on the same page. But I guess I should stop being such a delutional.
"I'm actually embarrassed. I don't know how to face her later." My face flustered as I start fidgeting my fingers covered with cheese powder, some drops down on the table.
I called my friends last night to go to school early today so I can tell this unfortunate news here inside the room of journalism club, while we wait for the first subject.
"You don't have to face her. She's sitting at your back anyway." Irene sarcastically say as she playfully roll her eyes. I frown and pout at her remarks. "What I mean is just.. don't. Don't even dare take a glance at her."
Wait, do I really want to do that? No glance, means no talk. No talk, means no giving milk shake.
"I agree. You have to let her know without telling her that you are hurt from what she did." Wendy butts in when she's done throwing the plastic wrappers. She sit beside me and settle her arm over my shoulder.
"Did? She chicken out all the time." Irene corrected, "and if she notice the changes in you and starts taking a move to at least talk to you." Irene says and sits on a free spot on my other side.
"Then maybe she have reasons that's why she's always running away from you." Chaeyoung finish and crouch a little behind, giving us a big embrace from her slender arms, squeezing the three of us together while the two beside me nods to agree, hands connecting to one another. Tears starts to show at the corner of my eyes from the love and support I'm receiving from these trustworthy friends of mine. We all stayed in that moment for a while.
"We've got plan." Wendy mumbles and Irene smirk in return. I confusedly look at them.
"What-"
An unpleasant smell like a rotten rat disgustingly envelop the place. "WHO FARTED?!" I shout, hands automatically blocking my nostril. Wendy and Irene run farther away from the rounded table we're sitting with a grimace expression. I look behind the culprit, her tight-lips innocent smile changed right away.
"I'm sorry I-i was bending a little forward and I was confident that it wouldn't smell. But.." Chaeng rumbles, her face now pale in embarrassment while throwing her arms in the air to clear the smell but it didn't help.
