Is it Love? :Liskook

Chapter 19: Killing two birds with a stone

"You didn't had to come for my rescue" Lisa muttered, taking her hand from his hold and breaking the silence between them as they were walking towards the bus station.

But Jungkook did not reply anything. He silently just walked beside her.

Lisa knitted her brows at the lack of response and tried again.

"I mean...I was handling the situation quite well on my own"

Once again, No reply came. And Lisa couldn't help but to wonder if she had made him angry. But what else she can do?

Nara seemed nice at first so she accepted her invitation and later when she understood her true motive, She told her off because how could she even listen to her lies and stay calm?

Finally, Jungkook glanced at her this time and his gaze bored at her.

"What were you thinking when you accepted to meet her?" He asked in disbelief and Lisa found herself pursing her lips.

"Umm...I thought she would be...nice?" She replied the exact thing that she thought.

At first when Nara invited her for a coffee, Lisa really thought that she was a nice girl upon seeing her attitude. But unfortunately, It turns out nara was just pretending to be nice infront of her.

"You should've just decline her invitation" Jungkook tsked and ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. But the strange thing was he didn't seemed too angry but rather deep in thought.

And Lisa did not find it very settling.

She gulped, slowing her pace as she stared at his side view "Is there something wrong?"

Lisa was worried and confused at the same time because he looked upset for some reason.

Jungkook lowered his gaze "You should've just stayed silent and let her tell you whatever she wanted" He said and Lisa furrowed her eyebrows at his suggestion.

"What the hell are you talking about?" She questioned him in disbelief "She was sprouting nonsense about you and you expect me to stay silent?"

This time, Jungkook turned to her "Of course! You should've just stayed silent and not let yourself get involved with my problems!"

"But I cannot just listen to her nonsense!"

"Why?" Jungkook questioned "She will talk nonsense about me so why does it bothers you?"

"Because I freaking can't stand when someone talk shits about you!"

Upon hearing her statement, A deep frown appeared on jungkook's face and he stared at her, confused.

At that moment, Lisa too realised that she has said something that she shouldn't have said in the first place but unfortunately, It was too late.

It was too late to take it back.

Lisa did not even know where THAT came from!?

Lisa's face turned red and she tried to cover it up by some excuses "I-I mean..umm..I cannot stand..um..yeah! I cannot stand injustice!"

"What?" He stared at her and Lisa continued with her excuse.

"Yes! I love justice so h-how can I stand injustice that is happening infront of me!" She said, her voice rising to octave, a habit that she learnt whenever she is lying.

Jungkook stared at her flustered face and couldn't help but to wonder if she was blushing or fussing in anger. The reason she was giving to him was nonsense in his opinion.

But he knows better that he shouldn't make her angry because she DOES know judo and can beat his ass anytime she wants. So he just nodded.

"O-okay, okay, I get it!" He said and looked away from her "You don't need to explain it to me"

Hearing his response, finally a sigh of relief escaped Lisa's lips and she found herself silently thanking her god in her heart.

Soon they reached the bus station and luckily, The bus arrived at the same time so they really didn't have to wait there and stand together in an awkward silence again.

Lisa quietly took a seat and Jungkook sat behind her.

Throughout the whole journey, None of them spoke and enjoyed their own company. Lisa tried to have a quick nap while Jungkook stared out from the window, occupied by his own thoughts.

___________________________________________

"Thank you for dropping me home even though it was not necessary" Lisa thanked him when they reached Lisa's neighborhood alley.

To her response, Jungkook nodded "No need to thank me" He said and signalled her to go on.

"Goodnight" He wished and Lisa nodded before turning and walking away from him.

But for some reason, Upon staring at her fleeting back, A sudden suggestion rised inside his mind from nowhere.

"Why don't you make an another deal with her?" His mind told him while he frowned.

"What deal?" He asked himself and the answer came to him automatically.

"Nara already thinks that you are dating Lisa so why not use this opportunity?" It suggests "Lisa has already gotten involved in this whole situation and already knows most of things, She is a perfect candidate to be your fake girlfriend!"

"What?? I don't want nara to target her!"

"Nara has already targeted Lisa. So even if you try to  set apart Lisa from this mess, Nara will eventually target Lisa again and again. So why not just pretend to date her? You can also protect Lisa from being bullied by announcing that you are both dating because Nara will surely try to take revenge from her, directly or indirectly and also, You can take your revenge from your best friend"

The suggestion seems wild and crazy to him but for some reason, He couldn't help but to wonder if he should really use this piece of advice from himself.

Because if he thinks about it, It was true that Nara will not stay silent after what happened and try to take her revenge from Lisa so if he pretend to date her then people will not be able to target Lisa. They will not take Nara's side by the fear of him.

And also, He can make Nara feel what he felt the moment he saw her with his own bestfriend.

It was a perfect plan. It is like killing two birds with one stone.

And Lisa will agree to the deal,right?

"LISA!" He called out and soon confused Lisa turned back to look at him.

Nervous yet excited by the plan, Jungkook spoke "I want to offer you a deal!"
