"What? No!" Lalisa rubbed her temples out of frustration. "Taehyung just woke up, we can't have you fainting too."

Chaeyoung performed a few breathing exercises in an attempt to calm her nerves but to no avail, especially because now Jieun was already on the couch sitting next to her bestfriend.

"What?" Jieun looked at Lalisa with wide eyes which were feigning innocence meanwhile the younger girl just continued to narrow her eyes at the latter. "I just paid you guys a visit– why do you keep looking at me like that?"

"I know you unnie, and?" Lalisa prolonged the last word on purpose and continued to push Jieun to say it.

"Okay, fine, I was also hoping for free food." Lalisa had to sigh heavily at her unnies's confession, she knew she could be a kid sometimes and if it were any other day, she would've welcomed her with open arms and not have any problem with it, but she really had to drop by today.

"You too, Taehyung," Lalisa now looked at her still wide eyed male friend. "Don't faint again."

"Give us a few seconds to process, please." Chaeyoung muttered before taking a big gulp from her juice, eventually emptying the glass, while Taehyung on the other hand kept slapping his cheeks lightly as if it would wake him up from this dream-like scenario.

After a few more minutes of light slaps, wide eyes, and deep breaths, it seemed to appear that the two bestfriends were slowly gaining their composure which made Lalisa release a small sigh of relief.

"So. . .as I was saying, Bambam here is my cousin, and you already know that I'm friends with Jieun-unnie." Lalisa said.

"I mean yeah, you said you were close, but we didn't expect that you would be this close to the point where you visit each other's houses out of boredom." Taehyung uttered.

"Well yeah, the three of us go way back," Lalisa smiled a little, "Like way back."

But then the secret heiress' face morphed into a much more serious expression. "But can I ask you guys to keep this a secret? This will only stay between us and between us only but I won't tell you why yet, I can trust you with that right?"

"Of course, Li," Chaeyoung smiled softly, "Like you said, you have your reasons so we'll respect that in the meantime as we understand your cautiousness because we're not that close yet."

"Your secret is safe with us." Taehyung added with a unique boxy smile of his own.

Jieun and Bambam secretly gave each other a knowing smile, they were already pleased with Lalisa's preference in friends, the last thing they want to happen is Lalisa being hurt again, so it eases their minds that Lalisa was able to find good friends like them.

"You guys must be exhausted, you can just eat dinner here, like I said my house lacked food so I came here to cook too." Jieun offered kindly with a friendly smile on her face. She took notice of both of their shock as well as Taehyung's wounds so she thought it was a good idea to just invite them for dinner, the girl needed to restock soon and go buy grocery so in the meantime she decided to visit Bambam and Lalisa's house as she has spare keys anyways.
