Lisa's POV

"Why are we here?" I asked Chaeyoung. She's dragging me towards the back part of the school, there is no one here but just the two of us. "Just chill." Chaeyoung said as she continue to drag me. After she found a spot, she faced me and sighed. I was right there standing, confused. I can sense that Chaeyoung is nervous and I don't know why. Her lips are trembling as well as her hands. She closed her eyes and sighed once more. "Lisa, I-i can't t-take it a-anymore." Rosé stated that made me more confused. "Can't take what? You better tell me straight to the point, I am confused as hell, Rosie." I said with an irritated tone. She held both of my hands with hers and stared at my eyes. I can see worry and sadness at her eyes.

"Lisa... "

"Yes?"

"I-i l-love you... "

After she said those words, a tear escaped her eyes. I wasn't surprise, we all knew Rosie has a thing for me. I was quite happy that she already confessed her real feelings. But as I've mentioned before, she's only for my sister. I liked her, it was before. But it's now in the past. She sobbed silently that made me guilty. I've already known her feelings yet I didn't confronted her. I didn't told her as soon as possible that she doesn't have a chance. I made her wait and that's wrong. I should've told her about Jisoo's feelings and mine, that way she'll avert her feelings to Jisoo. I was so coward, I didn't want to hurt anyone. If the both of us would end up together, then I'll hurt Jisoo. If I'll reject her then she'll get hurt too. I have no choice but to tell her what I really feel. I don't want to play with her feelings. Yes, I'll hurt her, but I know it'll heal. I know she'll move on. That's the best for the three of us.

"Chaeyoung, listen up. I know that you love me, a lot. But just to be honest with you, we can't be together. I'm not the one for you. I know you'll get hurt but I know you're a strong person. You must've be aware of the people around you, someone might be secretly inlove with you. I'm sorry but I can only offer a friendship to you." I spoke and looked directly at her now swollen eyes. I cupped her cheeks and wiped the tears. I hugged her tight as she sobbed. I was fighting my tears back. Seeing this beautiful creature hurt because of me is also tearing me up. She don't deserve this, she deserve better. I can't lie to her and also to myself. If I'll push the two of us, I'm slowly breaking her heart. She's loving someone who doesn't love her back, isn't that unfair? I just want her to move on from me.

She pulled away and stared at me. "If it's not me then who is it?" She said with a hoarse voice. "There's no one, Rosie. I'm not into someone else." I said in a calm voice. "I don't believe you!" Chaeng yelled and ran away from me. I didn't stopped her, she need it. She needs time and space. I understand her. I sighed and headed back to the practice room.

Jisoo's POV

"Rose-ah!"

I yelled, trying to catch the crying girl. I was roaming around the campus since it was breaktime when I saw two familiar figures. I sneaked and followed them, ending at the back part of the school. I searched for a perfect spot and stayed there. I listened to their conversation. I heard it all. It pierced my heart when I heard Chaeyoung's confession, though I expected it. Then, I heard what my sister said that made me realize that Lisa did thought about me, she cared for my feelings. When Chaeyoung yelled at Lisa, it was my cue to follow her. I don't care if she'll hate me after but I just want to comfort her. I wanted to express my feelings for her, slowly.

Rosé stopped while panting. "Chaeng, I'm here. Let's find a seat." I said and roamed my eyes around searching for a bench. I guided her towards a bench and there we sat. I hugged her and rubbed her back, she must be really hurt. If I were in her place, I would probably feel the same way too. She sobbed hard, I pushed her head to my neck and I rested my chin at the top of her head. I continued to rub her back and kissed the top of her head. She pulled away and looked at me. "J-jisoo... " She uttered while still crying. I pulled her again and hugged her tightly, "Hush. Just cry it all out." I said and cupped her cheeks. "Am I u-ugly?" Rosé asked out of nowhere. "No, you're not. Actually, you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen." I said with full honesty and looked directly in her eyes. "I don't know but it's like you have a magnet and I was attracted to you." I lightly chuckled while wiping her tears away. "R-really?" She asked as she stared into my eyes. "Yes, you're so gorgeous. But for now, I know you're hurt. Just cry it all out until you feel numb that you can't even feel the pain anymore. I'm right here for you." I said and kissed her forehead. "T-thank you." She said and hugged me tightly.

We stayed there for more than hours. We talked and talked. When she stopped crying, we shared each other's stories. I knew more about her. I realized that I fell inlove with someone that is beautiful inside and outside. We were so happy, we didn't even care about the time. I can say that she enjoyed talking with me. But of course, I must thank Lisa. Without her, this is just in my imaginations and nothing real. All I can say is I'm really happy, I wish that it will last long and will experience more of it with Chaeyoung.
