CHAELISA- Another Chance At Love

5. Unattended Feelings

This time, I was not wakened up by an alarm nor a phone call. More precisely, I was woken up by loud banging on my door and a never-ending scream of "Chaeyoung-ah, Chaeyoung-ah" I sighed as I sat up in bed groggily, it was only 4 in the morning. 

The thought clicked in place as I hurried down the stairs to open the door, it was Miyeon.

"Jesus, Unnie. You're gonna wake the whole neighborhood up!"

"I'm sure they are already used to it by now," she retorted. "You're packed and ready to go right? You have 30 minutes to get ready, I'll be waiting out here."

"'Kay" I replied, annoyed.

I was so tired, I unintentionally slammed the door but I seriously couldn't care less. "Guess no shower today," I mutter to myself as I walk towards the bathroom. I got changed and washed up, found a bag, and stuffed some things I might need inside. As I got ready to head out, I made sure I got everything and shut the door behind me.

"You're early!" Miyeon said as she looked up from her phone, she was leaning against the car.

"You were out here the whole time?" I asked, ignoring her comment as I gestured towards the freezing air around me.

"Let's go then, the other girls should be heading towards the airport as well. David and I will come with you," she nods towards David who is currently offering to take my bags.

I smile at him and hands him my bags, climbing inside along with Miyeon. "Isn't it weird to be a female manager?" I ask her.

"Well aside from the fact that I can't double as a driver or bodyguard, I don't see anything wrong with it," she replies, typing away on her phone without looking up.

I nodded and turned on my phone, I had a couple of texts from Lisa:

Lisa: sorry I hanged up so abruptly yesterday

Lisa: rough day, you know how I get before flights. 

I read the messages over and over again, still trying to cope with the fact that Lisa knows my existence. After deleting and re-writing a response for what seemed like the dozenth time, I sent it out.

Me: It's fine, happens to everyone. You've got a tight schedule and everything :D

within seconds she responds

Lisa: ❤️❤️❤️knew you'd get it! See ya at the airport!

I smile at myself as I shut my phone off and try to get some sleep.

My nap was soon interrupted by a harsh tap on my shoulder.

"huh? Are we there?" I ask as I remember where I was

"Nope, just letting ya know the arrangements and schedule," Miyeon shrugs

"Oh okay"

"So you'll land in LA, sitting with Jisoo. You'll room with Lisa. We got a concert right after and you guys get a free day. Then you guys will fly out to New York, then Hawaii. You'll sit with Jisoo on the flight to New York, Lisa to Hawaii, rooming with Lisa the whole way. You guys will have three concerts, afterward, it's a free day!" she lets out a lengthy exhale.

"Sounds great!" I replied, my heart jumping as the thought of rooming with Lisa crosses my mind.

As we arrived at the airport, we were bombarded by paparazzi. The other girls arrived around the same time as I did so we stood together by the gates as they took an endless amount of pictures.
