The Renegade (Jenlisa)

WHAT MATTERS MOST

Lisa -

I stared at the ceiling and tried to think things through. It's been an hour since I dropped her off at her apartment next door and told her to stop texting me.

What should I do next?

I am now definitely sure that I am willing to lose everything for her but should I tell her who and what I am?

Ahhhh! This is driving me insane!

Flashback:

I saw Chaeng at the parking lot - watching Jennie from the diner.

I went out and meet her while I leave Jennie with Papi.

"You should know I'm okay with your decision Lis," Chaeng says. Her halo glowing and her feet dangling from the tree's branch.

"But you said... You. I mean you made me feel that you're not" I wasn't sure what to say either.

"I did huh?" she tilts her head to one side and held her chin as if she was thinking.

"Yes chipmunk, you did"

She then stared at me with lonely eyes then went down to meet me. Her hand reached under my chin, her wings wide open, her feet still in the air, and her face inches from mine.

"I just can't afford to see my best friend hurt" she whispered.

Her eyes pierced directly to mine and I smiled.

"I won't chipmunk. And if I do get hurt, I'll be okay as long as Jennie's safe"

She sighed and landed with her feet as gentle as she has always been.

"You don't know what you're talking about Lisa"

"I know you wouldn't tell me Chaeng but whatever happens to her, I'll make sure to protect her. You may just watch her but I'll protect her. No matter what the cost is, I'll do it even if it means I lose my chance for everything"

Chaeng sighs and cups my face with both her hands.

"Then protect her with all that you can Lis, I'll be watching" she finally says then disappeared.

End of flashback.

I peeked at the clock beside my bed and it was already 2 in the effin' morning. My eyes are still wide awake and my mind is clouded with thoughts.

Every time I try to sleep and close my eyes, I see Jennie laughing. The gummy smile that made me adore her more made me feel giddy and light. The sound of her laughter that's more beautiful than a thousand angels singing. Her sweet strawberry scent that's like a drug to me and became my new addiction. Let's not forget her feline eyes, those pair of cat-like eyes that sends me to wonderland every time she looks at me and those lips -

Jennie Kim and her damn lips!

Goddamn it! That's it!

I've had it!

I rolled out of bed and slipped on my sweatpants. I went out to my balcony and peeked at Jennie's.

I tried to listen to her thoughts even though my ability doesn't work when it comes to her.

I grabbed the railings and swiftly jumped from my balcony to hers as quietly as I could. When I turned around, I saw her and her -

Frying pan, of course!

"Woah. Careful with that, frying pan" I chuckled and tilt my head to the side.

Fuck! This feels like Deja Vu!
