Still in the cafe Lisa has been sending heart eyes to Rose while Taehyung sending a glare to Rose and a flirtatious smile at Jimin. He didn't know why but this is the first time he felt a connection to someone else, let alone a stranger.
When the elderly couple decided they had enough chilling in the cafe they went out leaving a tip for the nice service they recieved, Lisa strolled towards their table to clean, letting her hips sway from left to right in hope Rose would look her way. But much to her dismay, her boyfriend was the one who got interested and stared at her milky exposed knee a little too much which didn't go unnoticed by Taehyung."Jimin, who is this girl? I, I thought you stopped playing around" Rose asked her boyfriend with a cracked voice when she saw his facebook post with a girl wearing almost nothing.
'So jimin is his name, cute' Taehyung thought before biting his bottom lip.
"Babe dont worry your my number 1" Jimin assured her cupping her cheeks and pecked on her nose.
"No, why can't I be the ONLY one. Im tired of this Jimin" Rose stood up and ran out of the cafe.
'Theyre going to break up! Yas!' Lisa and Taehyung screamed internally.
Jimin groaned before standing up and followed her. But not before slipping a piece of paper on Lisa's hand. And here's another jerk. Lisa thought. The girl deserves someone better. Someone like me.
She huffed taking a step towards the door in attempt to follow Rose to comfort her and they are going to be inlove forever.
But before she can take more steps, a hand grabbed her arm forcefully. It was Kim Taehyung who is glaring holes on her head.
"May I help you, sir" Lisa asked.
"The number" he said which puzzled Lisa. Number? Which number? Priority number? But she doesn't have any customer anymore. She tilted her head sideways with a confused expression.
'Cute' he thought.
"I said, can I have his number? That guy earlier?" He clarified.
"Uhm, i dont know him sir. We are strangers. I dont have his number"
"Then what's written in the paper?"he asked. Lisa's eyes widened in realization and read it.
meet me tomorrow at bangtan park. Lets hang out. @ 9pm. See you ♡.
Lisa scuffed "the nerve of that jerk. The poor girl shouldn't be dating him! If she will be my girlfriend then ill give her all the love she deserved" lisa ranted not minding that she still has one customer listening to her. Its the first time she became protective over someone. She never felt this with she was with jungkook.
He heard a giggle which is like music to her ears. Wow, his giggles are addicting. She thought.
"Wow, I think we are going to be best buddies. So i like the guy and you like the girl. Do you know what that means?" He hinted wiggling his perfect eyebrows. She squinted her eyes, still processing whatever he said then gasped in realization.
Oooh, we can plan on something to break them off then we can be with the one we like. Nice. Nice. I took a moment to stare at him contemplating if he is telling the truth. Wow, this guy doesn't look bad either. He must be a model with those edgy face and pearly white teeth and milky skin. Wait what?
I shook my head, trying to think of something else. Something, or someone like that angelic girl earlier.
She grinned. This must a good way for her to be with that angel.
They both grinned at each other.
"So, im guessing you're thinking what Im thinking?"
"Sure is. So its a deal between great minds" she reached her hand out waiting to be shook.
"and great looks." Taehyung said shook her hands feeling a little tingle when they touched. Maybe because of too much sugar. He thought. Yep. Too much sugar.
As the two made their silent agreement, the invisible beings kept on blaming each other. Not even noticing Lisa and Taehyung's hands illumanating red that were still in contact (only visible to cupids).
"Aish, I can't believe I was paired in a mission with you"
"Me either. Now we have to stay for a longer time, tsk. I should have shot them first. Maybe itll be as perfect as what I have planned"
"Ugh, can we stop fighting for a minute, and try to solve this?" Cupid Chae offered.
"Good suggestion. Do you know anything that can alter the arrows' effects?"
"Actually no. But grandma once said that a cupid's arrows are not a determinant that it they will end up together. Sometimes its just to test the fated couple. And it is up to the cupids to guide them"
"Wow nice storytelling chae"
"Shut up. Im just suggesting. There no harm in trying. Maybe with this couple, the red string of fate will reappear"
The red string of fate.
Thousands of years ago, cupids dont need computers nor certificates to check who matches with who. They can automatically see it from the red string attached to their pinky with its other end attached to their match. The bows and arrows are just to make them realize their feeling to each other.
But due to cupids not having control to the people round the couple, some fated ones ended up with the wrong person. Parents forcing their children to marry someone else. or prostitution, and even rape. The red string of fate began to loose its meaning and little by little it vanished.
"Guess we have no choise, but can we try not to annoy nor bark at each other? Its kind of annoying. Plus I think we would need to stay by their side for a longer time than we expected"
"Deal" cupid chae agreed stoping the scowl on the face. "Uhm, where are they?" She asked when she realized the cafe is empty.
"Ugh, lets find them"
