My Journey To Love

I'm currently walking towards the cafeteria. Alone. Jennie eonnie was called by Jungkook for a meeting. It must be for the upcoming intramurals.

You see, everyone's been hectic for the upcoming intramurals. Intramurals only happens once a year and so everyone's putting a lot of effort just so we could make this once-a-year-event memorable for each and everyone.

I was about to walk further away when someone blocked me from doing so. I frowned. Looking up, I saw the Campus Angel, Sana, standing in front of me with two more girls on her side.

"Uh, what can I help you with?" I asked her politely. I'm not one to be rude.

The girl raised an eyebrow before smiling innocently. "Actually, I need a favor from you, Lisa-ssi."

I blinked at her. Wow. Did I hear that right? Minatozaki Sana is asking for a favor from a nobody like me. That's new.

"About?"

"I know you're close to Kookie," Ugh, that nickname, "so can I ask you a favor and give this to him for me? It's a lunchbox that I made for him. I couldn't make it to their meeting place and so I thought of asking you to do it."

I felt a bitter taste in my mouth. I smiled at her despite the throbbing pain I was feeling inside, "why don't you give that to Taehyung oppa instead? Their closest so I think it'll be more convenient for you to give it to him instead."

I'm not being rude, okay? I just can't help but feel bitter. Was she trying to provoke me by doing this?

I know everyone in our campus already knows that I am pursuing Jungkook since I had openly told him about it. I remember confessing my feelings to him on the final day of our intramurals after our team—Jungkook's team—won the league.

"I wanted to but he is nowhere to be found so I thought of coming to you instead. I am only asking for a little favor from you, Lisa-ssi. But if you don't want to, I guess I would have to throw this away," she looked down looking dejected and lost that it made my guilt rise.

Sighing, I forfeited a faint "fine" and took the pink-looking lunchbox from her hands.

She smiled at me gratefully before leaving me on the same spot.

I bit my lip as I stared at the lunchbox. As much as it hurts me, I had to give it to him. It's better than wasting food right?

Resigning to my fate, I moved on and walked towards the cafeteria. There, I saw Taehyung oppa looking at the folders on the table.

"Oppa!" I cheerfully said while successfully masking the sadness that I am currently feeling.

"Oh? Lisa, it's good that you're here now. It sucks to be alone, you know?" I laughed at his silliness before sitting in front of him.

I munched on my french fries as we wait for Jennie eonnie and Jungkook to come.

Few moments later, I heard Taehyung oppa mutter something but I couldn't hear it because the cafeteria is too crowded and noisy.

"I wonder when will you ever look at me like that."

"Oppa? Are you saying something?" I asked while tilting my head at him questioningly.

The man tore his gaze away from somewhere before smiling at me. He shook his head before pointing behind my back. "It seems that their meeting is already done. Jennie's already busy gawking at her idol slash crush."
