Predestined - JENSOO - ENGLISH VERSION

Chapter 13

Jisoo

Soojoo: Don't you think you should stop flirting with everyone?

Soojoo: You are uncontrollable

🐰: Why are you so worried about this?

🐰: The girl I like dumped me

🐰: This gives me the right to do whatever I want

Soojoo: Is this your way of overcoming?

Soojoo: It's a ridiculous way

I lock the phone screen and roll my eyes. Soojoo has been unbearable lately. She complains all the time that I only pay attention to Jennie and that I barely talk to her like I used to.

It's not my fault she's been really annoying lately.

I even understand that she has some family and work problems, but that doesn't give her the right to treat me however she wants or to take her frustration out on me. And there's the fact that she wants me to be satisfied with everything I do or who I'm with.

I don't even make this kind of report for Jennie, who will say to Soojoo who is nothing more than a simple friend.

I need to keep busy so I don't think about Jennie too much and I need to find a way to forget about her. I like our friendship and I can't let these feelings mess up the dynamic between us.

"Why do you have that angry face?" Lisa says as she sits in front of me. We're at a coffee shop and she wants help choosing an anniversary gift for Rosé.

"Soojoo is annoying me, she seems like a toxic girlfriend."

"In her head, she is." Lisa says softly and takes a sip of her cappuccino.

"What?" I furrow my eyebrows when looking at the thai woman.

"How is Jennie?"

"Godd." I shrug and look away.

"Are you still grieving for her?"

"I wasn't suffering." I say in my defense.

"You're in love and you got dumped, obviously you're suffering." Lisa says as if it were obvious.

"She doesn't have to like me and I understand that."

"Why do I feel like there's a but there?" She lets out a little laugh and I roll my eyes.

"I just don't understand." I look at her again.

"What do not you understand?" now she looks confused.

"Look at me, look at me and this beautiful face" I point to myself "How could she not have fallen in love or felt any spark of attraction for me?" I say with irritation and Lisa laughs "I'm serious, there are a lot of people who say they like me or want me, when I barely talk to them, not the way I do to her and she just doesn't feel anything for me."

"You have a bruised ego." Lisa continues laughing "Despite your legion of fans, you quickly fell in love with the person who seemed to be immune to your charms and beauty."

"I still think it's impossible for her to be immune to my beauty. I'm not called Aphrodite for no reason." I cross my arms.

"See, Kim Jisoo, that's the problem with people with too big an ego, when someone doesn't act like others, you get irritated and your ego is hurt." I wave with my hand for her to stop talking bullshit and I watch the street "Why don't you stay away from her then? She doesn't like you, she doesn't feel anything, why will you continue to be friends with her? You will suffer."

"I can't" I let out a sigh after a few minutes.

"What can't you do?"

"I can't get away from her." I look at Lisa again "And the fact that she doesn't like me doesn't bother me, even though I don't understand. I just want to have her in my life, I really enjoy talking to Jennie. Somehow she became important..."

"For God, Jisoo, you really are in love. "Lisa is really surprised and I just shrug, letting out a sigh. I can't deny this truth.

"I didn't want to, Lisa." I say when Lisa is finishing her croissant.

"What? Croissant?" I start laughing when I hear it.

"I didn't want to fall in love and I'm not saying that because she didn't want me, I just don't understand how it happened." I take a sip of my coffee, which is already lukewarm "I have no idea how I got to this point, I just realized that I was in love and that was it. There was nothing I could do, but I didn't want to. If I could choose, I would choose not to have fallen in love."

"Why not? Being in love is so good, I love being in love with Rosé." I give a brief smile when I hear her. Chaelisa really makes a cute couple and they complement each other, in some crazy way.

"Because I only wanted to fall in love if I were to live a romance like you and Rosé live. I think what you have is beautiful and I wanted something like that for myself, so I didn't want to fall in love since I'm not going to experience love as it should be."

"Didn't you experience beautiful love with Bohyun?"

"In a way yes, calm and comfortable, but I was talking about intense and passionate love." I let out another sigh.

"And what are your tactics to overcome Jennie?"

"I flirt with anyone to try to distract myself from thinking about her."

"And with that you will increase your legion of fans."

"No, I already told you, everyone flirts as a joke, it's nothing serious. No one is going to travel here to kiss me and I'm not going to leave here to kiss someone."

"Would you travel to kiss Jennie?"

"Yes." I answer too quickly and without thinking, making Lisa laugh.

"You are crazy."

"Maybe I be." I smile wide when I see the phone screen lit up with Jennie's name on it "Crazy about her."
