JENNIE

It's been weeks already since I last saw her. I kind of want to admit that I missed her company and I've been fighting myself to text her number that I sneakily got when I called my own number. Chu has been bothering me to call her when I accidentally told her what happened that day.

"One call won't hurt you if you try." she says and rolls her eyes on me. She walks her way to our other friends and I decided to approach Tzuyu who's at the lobby of the company that we're working at. Tzuyu is busily laughing with someone when I got near them. The girl is wearing a beanie, baggy hoodie and washed jeans and she kind of look familiar to me. I thought and smile when my friend turns to me.

"Jen!" she greets and smiles brightly like always. I notice that the person she's talking to stiffens but I choose to ignore it. Tzuyu mischievously smiles and takes the flower and letter for me. "Your admirer says good day again." She teases and wiggles her brows at me.

I just shake my head and ignore her look. I shift my eyes to the sunflower and smile widely to myself.

"Here's your sunflower to brighten your day just like how your smile brightens mine.

-L"

The girl beside me turns to Tzuyu again and speaks. "Tzuyu, I should go now. Rosie's looking for me." Wait? That voice. She's—

I turn to the person beside me and was surprise to see the girl who's been haunting my sleep these past few weeks. "Oh. Hey!" My gentle stranger greets and her very adorable toothy grin shows again.

"You're—" I was frozen stilled and felt that I lost my voice as I stare at her dumbfounded.

"It's nice to see you again... Jen?" She greets and fists her hands in her jeans' pockets.

My heart starts to pick pace as I continue to just stare at her blatantly.

I clear my throat and nod as I regain my composure. "Jennie, my name is Jennie." I stated and shyly push my hair behind my ear, getting nervous under her stare.

She lightly laughs and tilts her head. "Since I promise that I'll tell you my name. Pleasure to meet you. I'm Lisa." she introduces and lends her hand.

I quickly take her hand. "Lisa." I awkwardly nod my head repeatedly, obviously still nervous around her.

She laughs again on my reaction and nods her head while shaking my hand. "Jennie." she mumbles and smiles as let go of my hand.

"Well, I should be going now. It's nice seeing you again, mandu." She starts to bid her goodbye to Tzuyu and turns to me as well.

"Wait! C-Can I t-take your number?" I shyly ask and timidly smile as I play with my fingers. "I think I should treat you... well since last time you—"

She unexpectedly pulled her phone in her back pocket. "Here. Type your number." she states and hands her phone. I hastily type my number and give it back to her.

She quickly types my name and saves it as she gazes back at me. "I'll call you when I'm free and then see if we can go." She utters as she places her phone back on her pocket and winks at me. "See you around, mandu."


It's already evening and Jisoo decided to drag me off somewhere with her. On our way here to her girlfriend's restaurant, I have accidentally mentioned to her about bumping into Lisa this afternoon which is my mistake.

"You what?!" Jisoo loudly exclaimed as she hits our table. She hisses after but quickly recovers as she puts down her chicken in her plate. "You bumped to her today?!"
