I Hate U | Jenlisa

Bonus Chapter VI

Past

"Are you crazy?"

Lisa flinched when she heard the voice of the girl running towards her with long strides. The students stepped aside to make room for the small girl.
She stopped right in front of Lisa of all people and shoved a piece of paper in her face.

Literally in her face.

All eyes were immediately on Jennie and Lisa, and Lisa didn't even know what was going on.

"Am I crazy? What's wrong with you?"

Lisa was annoyed, but maybe it was just a misunderstanding. Surely there was a reason why her crush was embarrassing her in front of all the students.

"What does it say?",

Jennie asked sharply.

Lisa looked at the piece of paper and immediately grinned.

It was the list of teachers that had been hanging in the hallway for a few weeks. A black X was drawn over Mr. Park's mouth. Lisa's work, indeed. If he spoke a little more quietly in class, he might as well not say anything at all. Anyone not sitting directly in front of him heard practically nothing.

"Speak louder!",

was written next to it.
And Lisa had also taken notes about other teachers, occasionally joking and drawing a few moustaches.

Jennie didn't seem too thrilled with Lisa's reaction.

"Do you think this is funny?"

Lisa shrugged.

"A little actually, yes. But it's a serious topic, of course.",

Lisa admitted.
Of course, she'd turned the topic into a funny prank, but only to draw attention to important problems. Almost every criticism Lisa had addressed directly or indirectly affected the students' grades and learning.

Jennie snorted.

"A serious topic you say? You're right. Calling Ms. Lee a cheap feminist cunt is a very serious issue."

Lisa paused.
Had she written that?

"Don't act so innocent. There are witnesses to you smearing the teachers' photos."

Jennie's voice got louder. Lisa just laughed. Not because she thought it was funny, she just didn't know what else to do. How could she defend herself against an accusation that was half true and half false?

Of course, laughing was not necessarily the ideal reaction.

"Very funny, isn't it? We can take this to the school authorities right away and we'll see if you still feel like laughing."

"Is there any proof?",

Lisa asked, almost relaxed.
Jennie raised an eyebrow.

"I just mentioned that there are witnesses. Did I stutter?"

"Witnesses are not evidence.",

Lisa said simply and smiled relaxed, while the girl in front of her became visibly angrier. Meanwhile, the outsiders were watching the argument with great interest, some had already taken out their smartphones and started filming.

"So you're denying it?"

"I didn't say that.",

Lisa said relaxed.
Jennie smiled cold and confidently.

"Even without evidence, you'll at least get suspended if they look at your past."

"What past?"

Jennie rolled her eyes.
