Grey and Ocean's Fate | JenLisa

Chapter 5

As days went by, college and classes were getting easier. I had no distractions since Miyeon was basically never at the apartment, but Taehyung always kept in touch. He and I spent almost every other day at the coffee shop studying together. Every day I was with him, he was always good to me, so when he needed help with some of his classes, I took every opportunity to help him.

Today was no different. I was sitting at the coffee house once more, waiting for Taehyung to arrive. The café was the same, always with new customers coming in and the door chiming to announce their presence.

No soon after I ordered my first coffee, the door called again. I took my nose out of my writing and darted my eyes to the entrance in hopes to see Taehyung's natural bright smile. But instead, my eyes had taken notice of the tall, familiar black-haired woman filled with arrogance. She walked in with a bitter face and another guy at her side, who contrary to Lisa, looked cheery.

I groaned and focused back on my workbook, silently praying that she wouldn't notice me, but my prayers were left unanswered. The more I tried to ignore her, the closer she got. Though thankfully, she didn't bring her little friend with her.

Lisa stood behind the chair opposite me and stared down not saying a word.

I didn't lift my eyes from my book because that would have been a sign I was interested in talking to her, which... I wasn't.

"I know you," Lisa smirked willingly. "You're the girl who was hanging out with that moron." She looked at my bag on top of the table, more specifically at the keyring with my name. "Jennie, was it?"

When I looked up at her, the smile she wore was proud and annoying.

Again, I didn't say anything, which caused her to shift on her foot in irritation.

"Are you ignoring me?" She spoke once more, leaning over the table slightly with both hands on the smooth dark wood.

I shut my large book with a thud, earning her undivided attention. I didn't need to be distracted by anyone... let alone her.

"Yes. I am ignoring you." I say bluntly.

I put away my class textbook and took out my reading book, paying the least amount of attention to her as I could manage, though it was hard when she was so frustratingly attractive.

Without an invitation, she sat on the chair and smirked. "What are you reading?"

"Why are you talking to me?"

"Am I not allowed to talk to another civilian?" She mocked me.

Jerk.

"I just doubt someone like you would be interested in talking to someone like me, that's all." I faked a smile and turned the page, trying my best to bite my tongue and focus on something other than her annoying grey eyes.

From what Taehyung and almost everyone else had been telling me about Lisa, I didn't doubt talking to her was a bad idea. She was rude and selfish, someone I didn't need in my life when it was already messy enough.

"Well, you're not wrong." She scoffed and sat back in her chair lousily. She took the cup she brought over to her hands and played with the back lid.

"Isn't your friend waiting for you?" I gesture to the blond-haired boy talking to a waitress.

"Hardly," She took a big drink from the cup of coffee she had ordered before, and I watched suddenly amazed as the liquid passed down her throat. I blinked quickly and looked away, my cheeks burning a bright red.

"So, what are you reading?" She asked again.

"A book."

"Just a book?"
