HOME [JENLISA]

Chapter 31

It was funny. She only knew her for over a year but how come it felt like they've been together since forever? 

One thing among all that she loved about Lisa was her 'straight to the point' personality. Lisa could be intentionally cheesy sometimes but mostly, she only said what she had in her mind without sweet-talking intended. 

Lisa didn't have words to say when Jennie was sad or angry but she did have pair of arms to hold her and a shoulder for her to rest. Her ears were ready twenty four seven to listen whatever she wanted to talk about and most importantly, she had Lisa's heart as a place she could come home to. 

"Nini-ah?" Lisa's fingertips touched her face softly, her eyes were anxious- searching for any rejecting sign. 

"Why me?" 

A soft smile drew upon her face. "You are the love that come to me without warning, Nini. I didn't prepare myself for you, I never knew I'd fall for you but you're there. You catch me when I fall even way before I trust you. I'm in love with you I'm in love with myself. And it's hard to love myself as me but you make it so easy it's surreal."

"Kiss me."

Lisa was confused, she was asking the question, wasn't Jennie aware of the distress in her heart? Why didn't she answer straight yes? 

"Kiss me." she repeated. 

Lisa did what she told. Jennie closed her eyes as soon as their lips touched. Her kiss was gentle and tender. Her tongue was exploring every inch of Lisa's lips, tracing every curve, savoring the sweet taste of it. She was hunger for her. 

"Yes," she whispered against Lisa's lips. "I'm yours for eternity." 

A wide smile formed on her lover's face. 

"Yes?" 

"Yes," she nodded emotionally. 

She took the ring out of the box and slipped it through her finger. 

"Mine for eternity." she took her hand and kissed the ring with all her heart. Jennie once again brought her face to Lisa's.

"Love me, Lisa." she mumbled. Her breath was getting heavier by each contact Lisa made on her skin. 

"A- are you ssure?" she stuttered. 

"Love me, take me, all of me. And let me love you too."

She whistled through the Surgery Department aisle. The grin never left her face. There were no yelling nor sarcastic comments in morning report she led. She forgave the mistakes her resident made during surgery. She treated her friends free pizza, she even let them to purchase take away two box each.

"You're extra happy today." 

"You should buy us lunch more often." 

"Unnie, can I have those cake too?" 

"Sure Sana," she nodded. 

"Take whatever you want." 

"Really?! Wohoo! Unnie you're the best!" 

"Seriously, what happen to you? You're so not you today." Seulgi commented. 

"I'm just happy and I love you guys so what's my crime?" Lisa laughed. 

"Fine, whatever. It's free food no I'm not complaining."
