Feelings in Disguise

Lisa quickly retreated into the women's restroom, her cheeks flushed with a mixture of frustration and embarrassment. As she gazed at her reflection in the mirror, she couldn't help but feel a strange fluttering in her chest.

"Do I really like him? No, I don't!! No, no, yes, no, I don't!!" she muttered to herself, trying to convince herself otherwise as she lightly tapped her cheeks in an attempt to regain her composure.

But despite her efforts to brush off the unfamiliar emotions swirling within her, Lisa couldn't shake the nagging feeling of uncertainty. "But why did I feel weird? Like some sort of weird feeling? Oh my gosh, please no!! I can love literally anyone but not him!! Why? Wait, how do I know that I like him? I'm not sure? So it doesn't mean I like him! Yeah, I'm just thankful that he saved me, yeah, that's probably it," she reasoned with herself, albeit uneasily.

With a sigh of relief, Lisa splashed some water on her face and dried it with her handkerchief before exiting the restroom. However, her relief was short-lived when she came face to face with Jungkook standing in the entrance, causing her to startle once again.

"Yaa, wa-what are you doing?" she blurted out, her heart pounding in her chest.

"For what else? Waiting for you, of course," Jungkook replied casually, looking at her with a hint of confusion.

"Wa-waiting for me? Wh-why?" Lisa stammered, feeling her tension mounting once more.

"Because we belong to the same class? No more questions, come on, let's go, it's getting late," Jungkook said, pulling her closer by grabbing her wrist. As his touch sent a rush of heat through her, Lisa felt herself growing flustered all over again.

Feeling her cheeks heat up even more at Jungkook's touch, Lisa stumbled slightly, her mind racing with a jumble of conflicting thoughts and emotions. She tried to compose herself, but Jungkook's proximity made it difficult to think straight.

As they walked together, Lisa couldn't help stealing glances at Jungkook, her heart fluttering with every step they took. She found herself captivated by the way his hair fell effortlessly over his forehead, by the subtle curve of his lips, by the warmth in his eyes as he glanced at her.

But amidst the whirlwind of emotions, doubt lingered in the back of Lisa's mind. Was she really developing feelings for Jungkook, or was it simply gratitude mixed with the adrenaline of the day's events?

Lost in her thoughts, Lisa barely noticed when they reached their classroom. Jungkook released her wrist, and she reluctantly tore her gaze away from him, feeling a pang of disappointment at the sudden loss of contact.

"Thanks for the clothes," Jungkook said with a smile, while looking at his clothes.

Lisa nodded, managing a small smile in return. "No problem. I'm just glad I could help."

With a final glance at Jungkook, Lisa took her seat, trying to focus on the task at hand. But her mind kept drifting back to him, and she couldn't shake the feeling that something had shifted between them, something she couldn't quite define.

As the class resumed, Lisa couldn't help but wonder what the future held for her and Jungkook. Whatever it was, she knew one thing for sure: things would never be the same again.

Throughout the class, Lisa found it challenging to concentrate on the lesson. Her thoughts kept wandering back to the moments she had shared with Jungkook earlier—the unexpected encounter in the restroom, the way he had protected her from the paint, and the warmth of his touch as he pulled her closer.

As the minutes ticked by, Lisa couldn't shake the feeling of unease that gnawed at her. She needed clarity, answers to the questions swirling in her mind. Was it possible that her feelings for Jungkook ran deeper than she had initially thought? Or was she simply overthinking things?

Lost in her thoughts, Lisa barely noticed when the class ended and her classmates began to filter out of the room. She lingered behind, her gaze fixed on Jungkook, who was gathering his belongings at his desk.

Summoning her courage, Lisa approached him, her heart pounding in her chest. "Hey, Jungkook," she began, her voice slightly shaky.

Jungkook looked up, a warm smile lighting up his features. "Hey, Lisa. What's up?"

Lisa took a deep breath, steeling herself for what she was about to say. "I just wanted to say thank you again for earlier. You know, for protecting me from the paint and everything."

Jungkook's smile widened, his eyes sparkling with genuine appreciation. "Of course, Lisa. I'll always have your back."

Encouraged by his words, Lisa pressed on. "And, um, I also wanted to apologize if I seemed a bit... flustered earlier. It's just that, well, it was all a bit overwhelming, you know?"

Jungkook chuckled softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes. "No worries, Lisa. I totally get it. It was a pretty crazy situation."

Feeling a weight lift off her shoulders, Lisa smiled gratefully. "Thanks, Jungkook. I appreciate your understanding."

As they exchanged a final smile, Lisa felt a sense of relief wash over her. Maybe things weren't as complicated as she had feared. Maybe, just maybe, she and Jungkook could move forward as friends, leaving the confusion of the past behind them.

With a newfound sense of clarity, Lisa gathered her belongings and headed out of the classroom, her heart feeling lighter than it had in days. Whatever the future held, she knew one thing for sure: she was grateful to have Jungkook by her side.

But then, suddenly, Lisa felt like everything was out of place. It was very weird that they were talking so sweetly to each other when they usually exchanged rude and sarcastic remarks.

Lisa began to doubt herself and her feelings. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, that perhaps her emotions were playing tricks on her. Was she truly developing feelings for Jungkook, or was it all just a misunderstanding?

As she walked through the corridors of the school, lost in thought, Lisa couldn't help but feel a sense of confusion and unease gnawing at her insides. She needed answers, clarity on what was happening between her and Jungkook.

Unable to find solace in her own thoughts, Lisa decided to confide in her closest friend, Rosé. Rosé was always there to lend a listening ear and offer sage advice, and Lisa hoped that she could help shed some light on the situation.

Rushing to find Rosé, Lisa's mind raced with questions and doubts. What if she had misinterpreted Jungkook's actions? What if she was making a fool of herself by entertaining the idea of having feelings for him?

As she finally reached Rosé's side, Lisa took a deep breath and prepared to pour out her heart, hoping that her friend could offer some much-needed clarity in the midst of her confusion.
