Lisa's eyebrows crinkle as her sister sits across her with clear annoyance written all over her. The older girl tries to compose herself, maybe Lila was making a mistake. 

"Alright, all you have to do is break up with her. It's that simple." Lisa puts her phone down on the table and Lila stretches her arms out feeling quite done with the entire situation. She clicks her tongue curiously.

"So, this has nothing to do with sexual orientation, nothing to do with the fact that I'm not a kid anymore, nothing to do with the fact that you're still jet-lagged, and nothing to do with Jihyun herself."  Lila lists down as Lisa nods her head carefully. Lila purses her lips and scoffs at the obvious way Lisa is getting impatient.

Park Jihyun, 22 years old, was born in February, met Lila in Thailand when Lila was still a Highschool senior. She was known to be rough around the edges however quite caring, so Lisa didn't have a big problem with that.

Lila used this as leverage to convince Lisa to move back to Korea, she had no complaints seeing as this was the original plan once Lila wrapped up high school. Two days back and she catches the two a little too close for comfort. 

Thus bringing them to the situation now.

"What do you want me to break up with her for?" 

"Making out in my house." Lisa crosses her arms and sighs. She leans onto the couch and sighs in annoyance. "Honestly, why did she even come over?" She groans and Lila puts on a thinking face.

"Cause I invited her." Lila snickers and Lisa glares at her. "I got that but you two are still students, I'd really rather not--"

"Weren't you a literal sex maniac back in high school?" 

Lisa clears her throat, gesturing for Lila to move on from the topic. Lila rolls her eyes and reluctantly does so.

Lisa Manoban, 23 years old, a graduate from college for about a year, has a major job in the fashion industry as of the moment, and most importantly she had just walked into her baby sister's room to see a "criminal" doing deeds she'd rather not put into words.

Lisa didn't particularly dislike Jihyun, they were pretty much the same age (give or take a couple of months difference between years). "I just got to break up with her cause you want to bleach your eyes? Why don't we take the latter?" Lila is fairly uninterested.

"Alright, maybe I was exaggerating, but I'd at least want to have a talk with her." Lisa says seriously her voice dropping in a couple of tones.

Lila Manoban, 20 years old, just turned legal in Korea and is currently a sophomore in college. Had no thoughts in dating until she had met her current girlfriend. 

"I never asked to speak with any of your girlfriends?" Lila refutes and Lisa raises an eyebrow with a proud smirk. "I haven't had a girlfriend, in case you forgot." 

"You're so proud of being a straight virgin since meeting Chaeyoung-Unnie like almost ten years ago?"

"It has barely been six years, shut up!" Lisa rolls her eyes and Lila takes a curious poke as to why she's so sensitive.

"I got it!" Lila snaps her fingers, catching Lisa's attention. "What now?" Her sister groans not to fond of her spur of random ideas.

"It's because you're too scared to contact her that you're taking it out on me!" Lila smiles as if she were a genius and Lisa almost scoffs. She shakes her head and refutes her answer with a glance.
