Author's POV

"WHAT?" Lisa slammed the table with her eyes large and bulged out.
"I was gone for two days! Two freaking days! And I missed a hell lot of a things?? Damn!"

"Shushh, keep it down girl, you are making a scene." Hoseok shushed her as her voice bursted inside agaist his ear drums and in the entire canteen, drawing few other students' attention towards their table.

"How the hell should I keep it down? My girl here got hit by a asshole and she smacked the shit out if him publically, and she didn't even bother to share about it to me and I got to hear it from some other random student! FOR GOD'S SAKE, I'M HER BEST FRIEND DAMN IT! How the hell should I keep it down??" She exclaimed in one breath. "Plus, I can't believe I missed the entire show!"

"Oh wow, Is that your problem? And here I was....thinking you were concerned about her." Hoseok rolled his eyes, leaning back to his chair, fishing his cellphone out from his pocket.

"Thaaaat I am." Lisa pointed her finger as she defended herself. "If I was present that day, I would've skipped the slapping part and jumped straight into kicking him right on his balls for touching my girl!"

"Ouch, not the balls Lisa, not the balls." Jimin pouted, shielding his own crotch under the table with his palms as he empathised a bit too much with that other guy. "I mean, I know he was a jerk and a dick head, but still, not the balls. It's precious to us men."

"Yaaaaah, whoes side are you?" Lisa glared at him lifting a brow.

"Of course yours. I was just...never mind." Jimin sipped back on his drink, shutting his words then and there, not wanting to be her victim.

In the midst of all these bickering, Jungkook anxiously kept glancing to his wrist-watch once in every minute, wondering why Jia's class was taking too long to end.

It was lunch break and the four had already gathered in the canteen at their usual seats. These simple breaks and hangouts were the only time their little squad could spent along with one another, after that they had to bid byes and run into their respective classes. Only Jia and Lisa had the luck to be in the same class, as Jimin belonged to science group, Jungook to arts, and Hoseok in the senior batch.

"Why are you here when she is still in the class??" Hoseok inquired to Lisa.

"Oh, I excused myself for using washroom, and then never returned back. As simple as that." Lisa said nonchalantly.

"Oh, chinchayeo? It's that easy to skip a class?" Jimin's eyes grew larger with admiration.

"You gotta be professional in acting for that kiddo, and brave enough to face the consequences." Lisa patted his head for which he smiled like a idiot, eyes crescent, cheeks all puffy.

"But I still can't believe she didn't tell me a thing about this!" Lisa jumped back to the topic as she played with her food.

"Oh come on, may be she didn't want to bother you. Don't dwell on it." Jimin spoke.

"What about our sisterhood then?"

"Lisa, It was just a slap. Not much. So leave it already, will ya? He asked for it, and she gave him one. That's it." Jimin concluded.
