LISA SLOUCHED IN HER CHAIR as she
stare out the window of Dr. Suji's office.

Her Mom started dragging her here
a couple of weeks ago.

Lisa pov *I'm not in the mood to spill my guts to a complete stranger. Our hour is almost up, and I've hardly said a word.*

"Your mom mentioned you applied to
a school in New York. Have you ever been before?" Dr. Suji asks.

She checked the time on her phone, and then she stand, patting her legs,"It looks like the session is over." She turn her back to Dr. Suji and walk out of the room.

Her mom is sitting on bench,  when she sees her, her mom gave a bright smile and says "How did it go?".

"Oh, it went", Lisa looked at her feet.

Her Mom pats her shoulder and says,
"Jzt wait her a second"and walk past
into Dr. Suji's office.

Lisa pov** Mom tries to whisper but
with the door wide open, i can hear
their every word**

"Why hasn't there been any progress?"
her mom asks.

Dr. Suji hesitated and answered "Lisa
has to want to heal. Its not something
you and i can force."

"I don't know, I've tried everything,
I've been nothing but understanding"
mom says.

Her mom rushes out of room and pulls lisa along taking her arm. "I'm going to find you another therapist" her mom says.

Lisa pov** when we arrived home after listening to music through my headphones entire way, i walk on autopilot toward the door. A tap on my shoulder causes me to stop.**

She spins around.

Jungkook stands there with her homework packet. She pulled her headphones down.

"You'll like the math assignment
from today," he says.

"Why?" she mumbled, snatching the packet.

"Because it drained my soul," he says.
"And yet you're still here", lisa replied. Jungkook makes a face.

Lisa's mom appears with the bag of groceries, "Jungkook, how are you?"she asks.

"Pretty good. Oh I'll carry that inside for you" he says.

"Thank you", mom says handing him bag.

After entering house, lisa takes one step upstairs. Her Mom grips her jacket and tucked her back down. "We have a guest," she says.

Lisa raised an eyebrow, "No we don't,  its jzt Jungkook."

Her Mom speaks up, "Five minutes or I'll turn Wi-Fi off."

Lisa's face falls, she lost.

She walks past toward kitchen,  Jungkook is already taking things out of bag and setting.  He smiles at lisa as she walks upto him.

He's holding out a box of cereal. "I can put that away," she says.

He tosses it to her and she catched it second before falling into ground. Jungkook mouth opens as he's about to say something funny.

"No comments," lisa says. "But I've a good one" he says. "I'm sure", she replied while setting cereal box.

Jungkook takes the eggs and hands them to me as she sets can on shelf. "There's a group going bowling tonight. Are you going?", he says teasing her.

Lisa eyes narrowed "In all your seventeen years of life, have you ever seen me pick up a bowling ball? No."

He shrugs "I think you'd be good at it. You have a knack for knocking things over. Jzt look what you've done to me yesterday."

Lisa jaw drops, she jump closer covering his mouth with her palm. "Be queit," she says, scanning if her mom is in sight.

After the realization that her hand hasn't moved hits her, she flinch away from Jungkook.

She says "Don't joke like that. I don't need my mom playing matchmaker." He leans against the counter.

"What's wrong with that? Don't think
you can handle this?" he gestures
to himself.

"Trust me I'm good," she says.
"Your loss", he replies. Lisa suck in a breath, "You're right. I'm devastated."

"Whatever you say, lily," he laughs. Lisa gives him a glare, "Stop calling me that. You know i hate it." He bites at his smile, "I would, but its a little too perfect."

Lisa pov **I step out the hallway. "She needs to get out of house," Mom says. Her voice carries up the staircase.

"So what its not like we can force her," dad says. "She won't be able to go to college next year" Mom yells.

My heart anchors to the floor. College is the only way I'll be out of this nightmare and move on with my life.**

Lisa race down the hallway. Her
parents heads turn as she come down.

"What are you talking about I'm
senior" lisa say.

Her Mom glared toward her dad, he walks past her mom as he's done with her and he doesn't cares.

"Tell me what's going on?" lisa says.
Her mom says, "The school is requiring you to finish rest of year in person."

Lisa staggered back, "No. No, i can't do that." "Then you'll have to redo your senior year" her mom says.

Lisa face burns red, "Thats not fair. How would i even get there?" Mom half laughs, "School have buses, remember?"

Lisa pov ** The Bus. Thats right**
Lisa shaked her head and flee up the stairs.

"What are you going to do?" her
mom yells after her.

Lisa pov *i don't answer because i don't know. I'll find out tomorrow when my alarm goes off.*
