Am I Pretty in your Eyes? || Kim Jisoo

Chapter 7

"Hey Y/N," You heard Jisoo call your name as you were scrolling through your phone on a Monday morning.

"Hmm?" You responded absent-mindedly, not paying attention to anything except the internet.

"It's Monday, shouldn't you be at your class?"

"Shouldn't you also be?" The remark flew out of your mouth before you could keep it in. Knowing her, she was going to go on a rant about why she wasn't in class. "Crap...sorry."

"Yes, I should be, but I'm not, and  I already talked it out with the dean. Well, I assume you haven't. Why aren't you in class?"

"Aish...," You sighed. "I stayed because I knew you would have pretty bad hangover, considering how much you drank. 'Come home sober' my ass. Pain relievers in the chest of drawers in the kitchen, third from the top, first from the left."

"Woah Y/N, you really care about me don't you?" Jisoo's eyes widened emotionally and formed non-existent tears.

You rolled your eyes. "Of course I do, I'm your friend."

"You're a good friend."

"Thank you. Also I set up a date for you later today."

"What?! No no, I take it back, you're a bad friend. Not a good friend."

"No need to thank me." You reclined back on the couch and continued swiping through social media. "Besides you have nothing to do this afternoon."

"Yes, I have plans! I was going to play Beggar Life 2 and Overwatch all day." Jisoo pouted, which made your heart flutter.

"Trust me, you'll enjoy it."

"Y/N! How did you know I had a crush on Hyejin?" Jisoo burst in the apartment after her date. She had a cheerful beam on her face that stretched to her ears.

"I have my ways." You smiled, trying to hide your melancholy. "Also, if you keep smiling so widely, I'm afraid your lips will get torn."

Y/N, stop getting envious. Jisoo likes- no, loves Hyejin, you can't change that by being jealous.

"Yah! You sound like a stalker! And my lips won't rip apart, for your information." She saw your slightly saddened expression, and got a bit worried. "What's wrong?"

"Not much," You shrugged, trying to act casual.

"What's wrong." Jisoo said the question like a statement this time.

"Fine, I'll tell you...," You faked a smile. "Well, my crush has a girlfriend."

"Omo! I'm so sorry!" Much to your relief, Jisoo didn't seem to realize you were talking about her.

"Hey, Jis?" 

"Yeah?"

"Am I pretty?"

Jisoo seemed slightly surprised at the question. "Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

"Then, am I pretty in your eyes?"

Jisoo turned away. "...Yes."

Why did she hesitate? Why did she turn away?

Am I ugly?
