A week later and nothing had changed, I hadn't had the courage to text Tristan. I just couldn't shake the feeling that I wasn't good enough for him, like he wasn't really interested.

And still, Jisoo was despicably hanging out with my brothers. More often than not she was at my house which made me uncomfortable to say the least. We barely spoke, barely even looked at each other. It meant that I had to avoid my brothers in order to avoid her which unsettled me as we had always been extremely close.

I knew I would feel better when my other brothers came home from college and I could spend time with them. In the mean time, I had been keeping my dad company.

He and I were sat in his study one evening after school, working on a puzzle. He loved puzzles and I loved to humour him, he said they helped to relax him when we played up; which was coincidently, quite a lot.

"I think I'll get some tea, do you want some?"I offered. He nodded dismissively in reply, too engrossed in his puzzle to merit a real reply.

When I reached the kitchen I nearly gasped, but I managed to contain my shock. There stood Jisoo, in my kitchen, making sandwiches with my bread. She turned and grunted at me, as if to acknowledge my existence before turning back to the food.

I tentatively crept into the kitchen and over to the stove, trying hard not to rattle the beast.
"You know, Jennie doesn't suit you" she said suddenly, turning to face me.

Wait, what? She was actually speaking to me? We were alone and she was choosing to interact with me, albeit only to insult me. I spun around to glare at her.

"It love my name!" I exclaimed, probably more angry than I should have been. But she made me angry, it was her fault! That little smirk on her lips only served to make me more angry.

"My mother actually names me so I love my name. My brothers love my name and most certainly my father does too. So I don't care about your opinion" I ranted at her as she stood staring at me with those intriguing eyes.

"What's your second name?" She asked without hesitation.
"The most girly name you could possibly imagine, as if I would tell you" I snorted, turning back to the stove.

"I'll find out" she stated simply, also turning away.
"My brothers won't tell you, so good luck with that" the smile on my lips could be heard in my voice.
"We'll see" she chimed as she wondered out of the kitchen and hopefully out of my life.

How could one measly stupid girl frustrate me so much! She made me want to tear my hair out and smash several plates at the same time. Most of all I wanted to grab her by her collar and sling her out of my house, but no. My brothers were infatuated with her, they practically worshipped her and it made me sick. One day i would get my payback I thought evilly. One day.

I finally managed to get some peace and quiet on the running track after school. For weeks I had Rosè and Lisa blabbering in my ear and if it wasn't them it was Hanbin.

All anyone ever talked about was Jisoo and I wasn't sure how much more of it I could take, she had practically become a permanent fixture at our house.

I finally felt some relief as I jogged, feeling the cold wind whip away my stress. I could barely remember her name by the time I reached the half way point, that was until I saw her.

WHAT?! Since when was she on the football team? I definitely did not take her as the 'team activity' type. But then I suppose she and my brothers were inseparable. Unfortunately, two of them weren't exactly the sporty type, but Hanbin was a prominent player on the team.
