Chapter : 28

Continuation
(Third person POV)

As the fan slowly stepped out of the cubicle, her head was spinning, her heart thundering in her chest. She looked around the now-empty bathroom, eyes wide in disbelief. Was I dreaming just now? She wondered, her fingers trembling. Or... is it really true? Lisa and Jisoo unnie are... dating?!

She blinked a few times, trying to process what she had just overheard. No, I couldn't have imagined that. They were right here, whispering to each other, laughing. They sounded so close, so... Her face flushed as the realization hit her like a tide. So much like a couple!

She pressed her hands to her cheeks, her mind racing. Lisa and Jisoo... they've been hiding it all this time? I can't believe I actually heard them talking like that! No one's ever going to believe me. I barely believe it myself!

But then, a heavy realization weighed down on her excitement. Wait... if I tell anyone, this could get out. And if it does, it'll ruin everything for them. Her heart sank as she imagined the headlines, the invasion of privacy, and the chaos that could follow. I can't let that happen. I love them too much to risk hurting them like that.

Her thoughts swirled as she stood frozen in place, still grappling with the gravity of what she'd stumbled upon. It's my dream come true, but... it's also their secret. I have to protect them, no matter how excited I am.

She glanced toward the door, her pulse still racing, but her mind was clearer now. Lisa and Jisoo unnie... dating. I know the truth. And I'm going to keep it safe.

With one last glance around the bathroom, she smiled softly to herself, holding onto the precious moment like a secret treasure. Maybe someday the world will know, but for now... it's just between me and them.

The fan stepped back into the party, the music and chatter filling the air once again, but all she could focus on now were Lisa and Jisoo. Her eyes scanned the room, and suddenly everything felt different. Now that I know... she thought, her heart fluttering. I can see it. Every little thing.

She couldn't believe she hadn't noticed it before. The way Lisa glanced at Jisoo from across the room, her smile was soft and almost imperceptible to anyone who wasn't paying attention. Or the way Jisoo's hand casually brushed against Lisa's when they passed each other by the snack table, so subtle yet now so obvious to her.

They've been doing this all along, haven't they? She realized, biting back a grin. All these tiny interactions... it's like a secret language they've been speaking right in front of us, and no one even noticed!

Her heart soared as she watched them, her idols, sneaking these brief, private moments while maintaining the perfect façade. To everyone else, they were just friends, laughing and mingling with the rest of the partygoers. But to her, it was so much more now. They're in love... and I'm the only one who knows. This is amazing.

Every time Lisa leaned a little too close when she whispered something to Jisoo, every time Jisoo's eyes sparkled just a little brighter when Lisa was near, the fan could barely contain her excitement. She giggled to herself, hugging her arms, feeling like she had unlocked a secret world only she was privy to. I can't believe I'm witnessing this! My ship is real!

As the night went on, her gaze rarely left them, her mind buzzing with excitement but also a quiet pride. They're so careful, so sweet. No one else here has any idea. She smiled to herself, giddy and warm with the knowledge that this secret was something she would treasure.

Finally, as the party began to wind down, Lisa and Jisoo exchanged one last, fleeting glance across the room. The fan caught it immediately, her heart skipping a beat. There it is again. They think no one's watching... but I see everything.
