Rent A Girlfriend (JENLISA)

Chapter 44

JENNIE'S POV:

"Yes."

I froze on the spot after Lisa said yes so lightly. As if she didn't think twice to say it.

As if she was very sure about her word, and she wouldn't regret anything, and it scared me, it scared me that I ...

I might have the same feeling in my heart.

I wanted to say that I also felt the same. The only person that could make me so assured of saying yes without thinking twice was PeuPeu. That little boy kept on insisting that he'd marry his Batman-J and would make his Batman-J happy forever.

*****
'Batman-J, remember that you must marry me in the future, okay? If you marry someone else, then ... ' PeuPeu paused for a moment. His gaze darkened like a predator that was ready to rip His prey's body. He wasn't like that cute PeuPeu that I knew.

"Then I will make your husband or wife disappear, like ... poof! Then you will marry me!' PeuPeu said. I got scared for a moment, thinking that PeuPeu really had violent thought even at such young age, but it was expected after I saw him smashing that frog mercilessly.

I just didn't expect the cute and gorgeous PeuPeu to really maintain that kind of thought, 'But what if Batman-J loves another man or woman? Will you make them poof also?'

PeuPeu stared at me with such a deep gaze. He grinned mysteriously, 'Batman-J cannot fall in love with anyone but PeuPeu. If someone dares to take Batman-J, PeuPeu will make them disappear, poof, and turn them to ashes!'

'Eeeh ... fine, Batman-J will not fall in love with anyone else but you,' I said, as I was afraid that PeuPeu would really become a criminal just because I dated someone else.

*****
'I wonder if PeuPeu still remembers all his antics when he was just a kid. Will he kill Lisa if I said that I have fallen in love with her?' I wonder in my heart.

Lisa was like a storm in my peaceful life.

In only three days, I felt like I had fallen in love and been familiar with her for more than fifteen years, just like how I kept my promise to PeuPeu that I wouldn't fall in love with someone else.

In fifteen years, this Batman-J, who had fallen in love with a boy named PeuPeu and kept my love for fifteen years ...

Might have fallen in love with someone else, a woman named Lalisa.

I didn't know how could my heart abandoned something that I kept for years, only to get swept in the count of days by an obvious playgirl called Lalisa.

'Am I a cheap woman?' I wondered.

Perhaps, I had been too frustrated about not having any romantic relationship with anyone for my entire life, so I fell in love with the first person that approached me, which was Lisa.

I wasn't exactly a nun who could keep her chastity forever, I knew. I just ... didn't expect it to be this easy and cheap. As if Lisa was the one that I've been searching for in my entire life.

'Aish, why am I like this, really? I'm not someone who's easily swayed and illogical. Falling in love with someone like Lisa, despite her cuteness, Lisa is was a dangerous woman. Even with only a split second after she unleashed her true nature to other people, I immediately sensed that she is dangerous.'
