Certain Things | Chaelisa & Jensoo

Chapter 12

It's been almost a month since me and Lisa started dating and Jensoo still didn't know about us. We were enjoying being secretive maybe a little too much. We felt as if we were Romeo and Juliette, minus the killing part, sneaking around so no one would know. Our friendship didn't change with the change of our relationship status whatsoever though. The only thing that did actually change was the fact that Lisa had more ways of teasing me.

Even though we liked sneaking around, we didn't like ignoring each other, so we came up with a plan to slowly start talking...well more like bickering. Slowly but surely we got more okay and nowadays we were back to how we used to be.

Every night after Jennie and Jisoo unnie went to sleep, me or Lisa sneaked out of our respective rooms to go sleep to the other ones room. Sleeping with Lisa soon became my favorite part of the day. Sometimes Leo and Luca joined us on the bed and I couldn't help myself but to think we were like a little family, with the cats being our kids. It felt really good to be with her like that, to not have secrets anymore, to finally be able to say that I loved her with her knowing it was more than in a friendship way and to know she loved me the same way too.

The only downside of us not being out to our unnie was, that every morning we had to wake up earlier, so we could go back to our rooms. The both of us really wanted to tell them, but being all secretive was just so much fun, but we decided to tell them soon. We'd tell our families too, well, once we were actually with them, since we both thought it was more personal that way and this was a pretty important matter.

So the both of us agreed that it would be better to say to their face not through face time or texts.

Lisa wasn't scared of coming out to her parents because they were really supportive of the LGBT community, so she knew they wouldn't mind and as she always used to say, "They absolutely adore you Chaeng, when I tell them they'll probably say something like 'finally, you better treat her right' or 'We'll disown you if you don't marry her and let her get away' or something" and laugh.

I on the other hand, was pretty worried. Not because my family didn't like Lisa or something like that, because sometimes I felt as if they liked Lisa more than me, their actual daughter. The problem was that my family was pretty religious. When I was younger me, Alice and my parents used to visit the church all the time and I was always taught that God was the way to live life. I never doubted that and I still attended church once in a while, but I knew that God was supposed to love everyone and why would he be bothered that people loved whoever they wanted. I mean God doesn't hate anyone, that's his whole thing isn't it?

But that was my way of thinking. I wasn't really worried about Ally because I felt that the younger generation accepted it, the older generation on the other hand...it depended really. Not every older person hated or didn't support queer people, but there was definitely more of them than between people my age. I mean, just look at Korea.

My parents never had any homophobic comments but we never really openly talked about it. But even though I was worried I knew that they loved me more than anything and that even if they didn't like it, they would accept it eventually because my happiness was what mattered to them the most. I made up my mind and I wasn't changing it, I was going to tell them as soon as we were together.

Since we had our world tour with Kia and my solo was finally approaching, we would go to Australia soon. I would go a little sooner than the other girls because of shootings for the solo MV, but they would come a few days later and me and Lisa would go visit my parents together. That was the plan anyways.

I was really excited to go back home, I've been all bouncy and giddy ever since Monday...today was Thursday and unnies made fun of me for being 'hyperactive'. But who could blame me, my dream would finally become a reality.
