Gods and Demon Assassins

3. The arrogant sinner

JENNIE

"Ok, what was that?" Nayeon asked and took back her hand from my grip after we got back inside our flat.

"What?" I asked innocently.

"What are you doing inside Lisa's apartment and why are you in a rush?"

"Oh, IU invited me in, I was just asking if you were there." I said with a shrug and pad on the couch to sit down, ignoring her last question and shrugged off all the fear I felt earlier when I saw the frame hanging on the wall inside Lisa's apartment. 

Of all places, why did I end up here and found a sinner? Though I don't know Lisa, but the girl on her left is Ryujin, one of the deity's daughters. So the chance of getting found is highly at risk if Ryujin tries to look for her friend, but on the other hand, Lisa is here, so that means she's really a sinner and got kicked out. And there's no way in heavenly God that any olympians can do what I did, which is escaping from heaven and hiding here in this land or should I say the land of the sinners, just like what my father always says.

Nayeon creased her eyebrows and followed me, sitting on the single couch across me and crossed her legs and arms while staring at me intently.

"Let me sort out things here before I let you stay, first, Lisa is mine." She started and I nodded my head slowly even though it's obvious that Lisa doesn't like the idea of Nayeon owning her. "Second, you have to stay five feet away from Lisa." I chew my inside cheeks while nodding my head relentlessly and suppress the smile to break out. "Third, Jisoo is dumbass, you stay away from her and lastly, IU is an angel, so you also need to stay away from her."

"You're also a woman but why do you sound like you're a possessive girlfriend of those three?" I asked mockingly.

"I am, because they were my only friends." 

"I can be your friend." I said with a shrug but sincerely.

"I don't even know who you are and where you came from." She scoffed and uncrossed her arms.

"Then why did you accept me as your roommate?" 

"Because my bills are gradually killing me and I need someone who can share some of my burdens!" She said half yelled with her arms stretching out. "But even if I'm in need, I still want you to answer my questions before I could trust you, so the first question, who are you?"

"I'm Jennie Ruby Jane Kim." I replied.

"Your name is longer than my legs, wow. But go off, we have the same height and it's just your name is long, next question, where are you from?"

"Mt— New Zealand." I said and smiled at her forcefully when I almost told her where I came from. 

"I'm not familiar with any countries so I'm going to pretend that I didn't hear Mt. New Zealand." She said dismissively and uncrossed her legs to lean over the center table and shoved me the paper sitting above it. "So here's the rules of this house, read it then sign it after."

"There's only one rule written on it." I said confusedly.

"And that's the most important thing." Nayeon said as she took back the paper and signed it. "Lisa is mine, it's written loud and clear, do we have a problem here?"

"Does Lisa know that she's yours?"

"You're such a bitch, aren't you? You didn't have to attack me like that!" She sneered and tore the paper violently. "Guess what? We have no rules, you can use everything here and your room is on the left corner, we'll split every bill—."
