Deception

Chapter 5

IRENE

"Fine, remember that I will never run after you. You're just one of those women and I will find someone better for sure. Don't think I'll ever accept you back if you realize your mistake." It was the first time I had ever seen Lisa being angry. She is always calm and has this purest soul which I find myself being unworthy of her.

For almost 2 months of being together, she never raised her voice on me. And I deserved all that. She should hate me to the core and will never want me to be part of her life. She deserves to be happy with someone who can love her without having any restrictions. I can never give her a normal life. I killed countless people. Regardless if they are innocent or not. For as long as it was the instruction of the High Order then I will gladly do it. Imagine that has been my life for a very long time. I never questioned them who are those people they wanted dead.

Being with me will complicate a lot of things. Now that I am all cleared to go back, my only goal is to leave Lisa to ensure I would not put her life in any danger anger. However, things aren't simple like that. Some of my sisters know her existence and they have a common goal to eliminate her to protect me. I already told them not to do anything to Lisa. As strange as it is I could kill my sisters for Lisa. I had this sense of responsibility to protect her at all costs. Although, I did break her heart for ending something beautiful, it does not mean I will stop caring about her. I may not show it on the outside but my feelings for her kinda grow. I wanted to wipe her tears earlier but it would defeat my purpose of protecting her. She does not need to know my real reason for breaking up with her. From the very start, I was lying to her. I didn't know that my lies would eventually backfired at me. Everything should end there. I want her to hate and forget me. I prefer if she would go back to Amsterdam and have her life there.

I don't know what happened to "I will kill her myself if she gets in the way." Why did I become too soft for Lisa when I was just pretending to be in love with her? A part of me wishes I could stay by her side. But we are living in a complete opposite world. For the first time in my entire existence, I questioned myself why I couldn't kill just one person. What did Lisa ever do to me to become this weak?

My sisters were here to fetch me. They said they got the order to bring me back to the ground. And I am so happy to finally reunited with them.

"Wow, that was fast?" Jisoo jested. "I thought we would need to stay here for several hours before you would finally leave that place." I don't know what's funny about it. Maybe I easily got irritated because I kinda felt she was mocking Lisa.

"But she's going to be a problem for sure. Why didn't you just kill her?" Jennie asked. "If you are having a second thought then I can finish the job for you." That's the only time I paid attention to Jennie. It's like another head grew on me and I wanted to choke her until she couldn't breathe.

"Don't even think about touching a single hair of her." I gave Jennie a dead glare. I don't care if she is my sister. I could kill anyone who would dares to touch Lisa. Although, I broke up with her, I still wanted to protect the woman who gave me a sense of purpose. Everything I did was for Lisa's own good before the High Order knew about the existence of our relationship.

I was frustrated when I found out that Minnie was dead because of Yeri. But it was an accident. I only lashed out to Seulgi for not watching the youngest sister properly. Joy and Wendy were forced to dispose of the body in the ocean to ensure there won't be a trace. They are all scared of me and I always have the authority over my sisters. The rest just follow whatever I say to them. But I am still worried that one of them could go against my instruction and look for Lisa. That is the greatest fear that I wish that I will not deal with.

I don't know how I would explain to Lisa that her friend wasn't missing and she had been dead for several days. I couldn't risk exposing my own sister. If the investigation starts then the public will also know about our existence. Although, Yeri does not have a record of her identity it would be more questionable for everyone.
