signed fate

< 6 >

I've fallen for you.

I've fallen for you.

I've fallen for you.

Normally this sentence would bring joy without a doubt, the person this sentence was directed to would be happy.

However that wasn't the case with Lisa, instead of being happy she was angry and more confused than usual. Come to think of it, the night turned out to make her lack sleep. She regretted sneaking out and not staying in her room, her going out made everything so complicated.

Ever since he said those words, they didn't see each other. She assumed it was, because his group was preparing for a comeback and Lisa was sincerely happy about it. Seeing him always led to interactions and these interactions led to him being bold.

Every time they saw each other he either insulted or messed with her. Lisa didn't like his company and dearly wished he would stop talking to her, it only caused problems.

"Life is so unfair, why do I always end up being the one with bad luck!", Lisa shouted through her bedroom while she was lying down on her bed, kicking the air.

Suddenly someone opened the door. It was Jennie, who had a facial mask on and looked at Lisa quite stressed. Lisa almost laughed at the sight of her small figure trying to look as frightening as a tiger, adding the fact that Jennie had Kuma in her arms. She looked way too adorable for Lisa to be scared.

"Dare to shout one more time and Kuma will bite you right away", she said and disappeared after saying that. Lisa was still able to hear what Jennie told Jisoo after leaving Lisa's room.

"How did we manage to get this wild monkey after raising a precious chipmunk?"

Lisa smiled mischievous hearing what Jennie said. Well, it was true that Lisa could easily pass as the loudest person in the whole building. At least if there wasn't Junhoe.

Which reminded her... she still had to give Chanwoo the snacks she promised to give him after losing to him on several games. She was so sure she could win against him, but that boy a lot more concentrated than Jisoo when there was a game.

Lisa stood up, reached for the bag of snacks and just decided to give him all of the snacks so she could go to the supermarket and buy new ones. Besides, she lost countless times so the number of snacks would probably fix it.

Without telling the members, she left the dorm and made her way to the elevator, since iKON's dorm was higher up in the building.
Unknowingly, Lisa remembered the time when Jungkook and her were stuck in the elevator, a horrifying experience for her.

Realizing that he still didn't leave her mind, she shook her head to knock some sense into it.

"That damn Coconut Head, I feel like punching him again", she murmured after pressing the up button on the elevator. Lisa was more than salty that she had to end the year in such an unpleasant way, with so much haunting her mind. On the contrary, maybe this year would be better than the previous ones.

The elevator doors opened and she immediately went out to finally reach the boys' dorm. Since the boys had two dorms she obviously headed to the one Chanwoo lives in. She rang the doorbell and waited for someone to open the door. Surprisingly, Bobby opened the door and she assumed he just came, because he liked to eat the food Yunhyeong cooked.

"Oh hey Lisa", he eyed her slightly confused, since it has been a while that she visited them. You could say both of them were friends, but they still were kind of awkward with each other. Lisa wasn't hanging out with them on a daily basis, she was closest to the Maknaes and her Jinhwan Oppa. "What brings you here?"

"Hey Bobby Oppa, I just came to give Chanwoo this bag of snacks, since it was part of a gaming bet", she greeted him properly and explained why she came there in the first place. Despite knowing each other for a long time, they seemed very tense while talking to each other. It was unlikely for these two especially, since they were known for being goofy all the time.

Lisa extended her arm to give him the bag and he nodded before taking the bag. Lisa lowered her gaze when she felt his fingers brushing hers while taking the bag.

"I will make sure to give him this", he said in a low tone and decided to not look at her.

"Thanks Oppa, I will go then", she responded with a light smile and bowed. The atmosphere both of them were in wasn't comfortable and she wanted to escape it as quick as possible. She was aware that he felt the same way, what she did was for the best.

Just as she wanted to turn around, he raised his voice again.

"Lisa", he almost stuttered and scratched the back of his head nervously. "Are you alright?"

She admitted the question was unexpected and it was quite a while ago, that anyone had asked her whether she was alright. It never bothered her, which is why Bobby's sudden curiosity confused her. However, Lisa answered the question rather than thinking about it longer.

"Yeah, of course I'm alright Oppa", she responded with a bigger smile than before. "Are you?"

Bobby seemed like he wasn't in the reality anymore, but still managed to nod.

Of course she was alright.

She was always alright.

"Eonnies, does love at the first sight exist?"

After Lisa asked that kind if question the three other members found themselves in a shock state. Jennie dropped her chopsticks, Jisoo started to cough loudly after swallowing her water the wrong way and Rosé felt like a piece of meat got stuck in her throat.

Lisa was curious about that, she didn't experience a first sight feeling and didn't know those who probably did. She was a hundred percent sure that Jungkook wasn't in love with her, because it would be impossible to fall in love that quick. He wasn't even acting like he was in love with her, all he did since their first time meeting was getting on her nerves.
In fact, it seemed like his 'confession' was another gag and there was no other way, it was the most simple thing to assume.

"W-Why are you asking that all if the sudden?", Rosé questioned after drinking a whole bottle of water. All three of them were suspicious of her.

"Yah Lalisa! You want me to suffocate?", Jisoo shouted while her cheeks got a little pinkish. Jennie rubbed Jisoo's back with the same expression.

"I was merely curious, no need to exaggerate", she replied and pouted while filling her mouth with rice.

"It depends on the person, what seems to be a short time for you can be an eternity to someone else", Jisoo finally answered after all of them composed themselves a little. "Even the amount of love a person can hold is different, there is a possibility that someone looks at you and already is fully in love"

Lisa nodded, but still couldn't push herself to believe what Jisoo said. It didn't seem realistic to her.

"Excuse me, I forgot I have to call someone", Lisa suddenly said and left the dining table, despite Jennie calling after her.

Reaching her bedroom, she took her phone out and quickly went through her contacts to find a certain person's number. When she found the number, she pressed the calling button.

The phone rang two times, before the someone spoke.

"Uhh Lalice, what an honour that you decided to call me", the voice of her childhood friend was revealed and she rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Don't even try to blame me, Mister tight schedule", she responded and leaned against the door of her room. "I have a favour to ask for, Bam"

"Well then, who do I have to kill?"

"Not funny", he was surely exhausted, at least she could tell by the tone he spoke with. "Listen..."

Lisa hoped it was the last time she would have to ask BamBam for that kind of favour.
