Something About Her

CHAPTER 9 - Drowning and Breathless

Seoul, 11:03 am

Jisoo POV

"Plan? Meeting? What are you talking about, Chu? I am really confused" was the last thing I heard from Pri. As I was about to respond, I squinted my eyes as I stared intently on my phone screen as I looked passed Pri's shoulder. Oh Shoot.

"Chu?" / "Jisoo?" Well ladies and gents, I present to you, The Mandu Kim and My One that got away.

And yes, I froze the second I saw her, again. But apparently, we all mirrored the same frozen reaction.

"......" dead silence.

Third Person POV

When Lisa turned to look back, she first saw Rosè, who's eyes were glued to her phone screen – looking at Chu. But then, the moment she glanced to the blonde girl's left side, it happened again- The cliché scene and more. She knew it was the same woman she saw earlier.

She was captivated by those feline cat-eyes that looks directly back at her. It sent a thousand waves of rushing feelings to her system, all at once, making her heartbeat fast. She can hear nothing but her heart, pounding wildly inside her chest. And all she can think of was to remind herself to let out a breath. But then again, her gaze landed on the woman's pair of pink lips, and at that moment, she knew she was doomed. The only thing she can do was to gulp as she takes in the overwhelming view.

On the other hand, Jennie was not doing any better. The second she stepped beside Rosè, her heart skipped a bit as a pair of brown doe-eyes stares back at her. She felt like drowning on those round orbs as she felt her cheeks start to burn and her lips part involuntarily, only to inhale a little air as she mask off the gasp she was so sure of releasing.

Her heart started to pound faster the second she studied her face. Her thoroughly scattered bangs, her button nose, the spot-less smooth skin, and her lips. Those Lips. Those pink and glossy and perfectly pouty pair of Lips. She cannot help but to mirror the gulp she just witnessed as she herself felt her throat dry up. And like a magnet, her eyes stare right back on those ocean-like eyes. And just like that, she was again... drowning and breathless.

The both of them were brought back to their senses when Rosè cleared her throat rather loudly, which caught their attention. They too, cleared their own throats as they blink frantically, both blushing as they looked anywhere. It felt like forever, and as if on cue, everything started to move back to normal for Lisa.

"Oh, ughhmmm...", she then faced the women as she brought down her hand holding her phone. She looked at the mysterious beauty. She completely forgot about the Turtle Rabbit on facetime. Until...

Jisoo POV

It's Her. I managed to tell my frozen self. She was everything but beautiful, like always and more. I cannot seem to understand how on earth did I ever let this one go? She is my everything. And my everything is looking right back at me as she slowly goes nearer to Pri, making it easier and clearer for me to see her.

I can't help but smile slowly as my heart started to pound and my eyes start to warm up.

"Chu...", she said again as she stopped just beside the monkey. She mirrored the smile I was giving her as she awkwardly tucked her lose hair behind her ear as she looked away a bit while innocently licking her lower lip as she puck it in afterwards. A habit of her. Jisoos Kites! I'm about to die!

But I refused to let that happen just yet. So, I managed to acknowledge her, and I muttered, "Chaeyoung"

"Hey....ughmmm...", she was practically speechless just like me as I awkwardly sat up straight whilst scratching the back of my neck. "Uhmmm...Hello", I said. She then smiled more as she looked down. Can you stop making my ears redder than it already is? Damn you, my woman" I internally thought.
