(Song of the Chapter: Don't Know What To Do)
Lisa's POV:
When our lips touched, something sparked inside of me. Things never really changed. My feelings for you still remain, but one thing did change, it all doesn't feel the same. I'm so angry at myself for not having the courage to tell you that I loved you when you have given me millions of chances to do so. I'm so angry at myself for taking for granted all the days I could've spent with you. I'm sorry for making you wait. I'm sorry for all the pain. I'm sorry I pushed you away. But above it all, I still love you. No one loved me like you did. I never loved anyone but you. After all these years, the thing I regret most is not being able to say all these things. I should've been more open with you. I know all you wanted to do was protect me and help me, but I thought pushing you away would protect you from all my mistakes. Instead, I broke you. I chose to marry someone I didn't love anymore and I lost all of you as a result. Maybe, there's a chance for me to fix all my mistakes. A time machine perhaps. Maybe, I would've chosen you and you and– only you. Maybe, my decisions would've been different. Spencer, he wasn't what I thought he was. He had these mood swings and along with it, he abused me. Many times I tried to call for help, but no one came. He made me do things–
Y/N: Lisa, wait.
Her voice startled me. Perhaps, she's giving me a chance to redeem myself after these past eight years. I stopped in my tracks and turned to face her.
Lisa: What do you want?
Y/N: You got the job.
Lisa: Really? Thank you so much! I won't fail you.
Y/N: I hope not.
Lisa: Can I– Can I try something?
Y/N: Depends. What is it?
I raced towards her and hugged her.
Lisa: This.
She softly pats my back.
Y/N: Okay, okay that's enough.
Lisa: I'm sorry. I should go now. I must share the good news.
Her plain expression turns into a bright smile. I missed that smile. Returning the favor, I smiled back. . . . .
  Do you think you will pursue your evil plans?
