Predestined - JENSOO - ENGLISH VERSION

Chapter 8

Jisoo

🐰: I was thinking that if we met in person...

Jen: What?

🐰: If you would have the courage to kiss me.

Jen: Yes

Jen: Are you high?

Jen: Are you drunk?

I let out a loud sigh as I read the rest of the messages and hit my forehead on the table. She could have stopped at 'yes' or just dumped me, but no, nothing with Jennie is that simple.

Just because of the second message, I can tell that she didn't take it seriously.

I praise her all the time and do everything I can to make her realize there's something going on, but she just doesn't understand or is sparing me the humiliation that will be when she gets fed up and dumps me.

I would prefer if she dumped me straight away or just asked me to stop complimenting her because then I would have a limit and know how far I can go, because I simply can't stand thinking about Jennie all the time.

Chaelisa comes back from the bathroom and is leaning on each other, laughing at some idiocy and I pout because I want to experience something like that too.

"Why are you so discouraged?" Lisa sits next to me and I show her the phone "Jisoo, what did you do? If I were her, I would stop talking to you."

"WHAT?! WHY?" I look at her in panic just thinking about this idea.

"You don't even know if she's available and you're hitting on her like that, maybe you scared her with that heavy advance."

"I don't have the courage to ask about her preferences because she seems to be very closed about it, I thought that by hitting on her, I would find out." I increase my pout and look at Rosé "What's your opinion, Rosie???"

"I think you're crazy, but if you like Jen and this is your tactic to find out what she's like, I support you. You look happier now than I've ever seen you before." Rosé shrugs and I furrow my eyebrows in confusion.

What do Rosie mean I like Jennie? Do I like being in love?

The pieces start to fit together in my mind. I'm in love with Jennie.

MY GOD!!!!

What am I going to do now?

I need to step away to analyze everything carefully, but I also can't do something that makes her upset.

How can I be in love with someone I don't even know what their face looks like? The only part I know of the person Jennie is is her voice. And what a beautiful voice. I'm still rooting for her to sing a song for me and for me to enjoy that voice.

I lean back in the chair and let out a heavy sigh as I stare at no specific point, letting my thoughts run wild after this realization. It doesn't make sense that I fell in love so easily with someone who doesn't even want me.

How did Jennie make me fall in love like this? Jennie doesn't seem to have made an effort to make it happen, but it just happened and I don't know what I'm going to do.

The ideal would be to move away, but I like having Jennie in my life so much, even if it's not in a romantic way, that falling in love with her isn't something I'm to blame, much less her.

Come to think of it, a lot of people say they have a crush on me or even like me, maybe I should use my charm to try to make Jennie fall in love with me. At least I can't regret not having tried, I'll do everything in my power to plant any seed in Jennie's mind and heart.

"What do you intend to do?" I feel Lisa poke me and I smile the biggest when I look at her.

"I'm going to make Jennie fall in love with me." I simply say.

"So easy?" Lisa looks at me in disbelief.

"You always say that a lot of people fall for my chatter and my flirting, the first step is for me to dedicate myself only to Jennie and make her understand that there is something going on. There's no way she doesn't have feelings for me, I'm pretty and cool."

"What self-esteem and ego are these?" Lisa continues to gape.

"What Jisoo wants, Jisoo gets." Rosé says and raises her glass for us to toast.

"Jisoo, are you really interested or do you just want to make Jennie fall in love to brag about it?" the thai woman says and I spend a few minutes thinking about the question.

"There's no way I want to make Jennie fall in love just to feel like I'm the best, so I really like her. Talking to Jennie makes my mood improve 1956% in seconds. She does me good, Lisa, I'm in love with her."

"Are you sure?" Lisa insists on the question.

"To be honest, I didn't want this to happen and, honestly, I didn't realize how much it happened, but it happened, and I'm not going to run away from that feeling. I'm liking everything she makes me feel, it's something new and different from anything I've ever felt for anyone before and what I can do is try to win her over, because at least I'll have tried something." I say firmly and look at her.

"I've never seen you determined like that for anything." Rosé says after a few seconds. "How is she? Beautiful?"

"I don't know, I never saw her face. All I know of her is her voice." I shrug "It doesn't really make much difference, I like the person she is."

"This girl abducted you and brainwashed you." Lisa says and I laugh.

"Yes, maybe, but it will be worth it. I feel like Jennie is worth it."

"What is the next step?" Rosé smiles. "I want to know everything!"

"I'll get her number."

"Don't you have her number?" Lisa is incredulous again.

"No, but I'll make it. After hitting on her, it's okay for me to ask for her phone number, right?" I smile widely and pick up the phone.

🐰: So, are you going to give me your phone number or not? 🤔

🐰: I'm tired of chatting here, I want to talk to you faster

Jen: I think you're really drunk 😂

Jen: But I'll give you my number anyway

"Look..." I show Lisa the phone screen "Jennie is still going to date me, you can write it down."
