2016
"Everyone, we are late already. Please be faster." Blackpink manager rushed the out from their van. Attending MMA was an opportunity that what Blackpink have been looking forward to. It was their first appearance in music awards since their debut and they performed Playing with Fire. The moment was perfect until their microphone decided to betray them especially Lisa and Jennie but as professional idols, they ignored the misfortune and keep on performing and sang louder.
Inside their dressing room, Lisa and Jennie almost losing their temper. They were very disappointed with the management team. Blink will so sad because of the quality of their performance. At least they did their best.
"Relax. You two handled it perfectly. Blink will be so proud." Jisoo patted Lisa and Jennie's shoulder.
"Yes, eonni. I just sad because this is our first appearance in music awards. The first impression is everything." Jennie pouted her mouth.
"Don't worry. We still have many awards await. We will rock them. Group hug!!" Lisa and Rosé joined while laughing. After the mood dropped they release the hug and sat in front of the mirror to fix the make-up. Lisa stood from her station and went to the door.
Rosé saw her and turned toward Lisa.
"Where are you going?"
"I need something sweet."
She left the dressing room and walking down the hall to look for a vending machine for snacks or drinks. As she turned to the left, she found one vending machine that sells choco bars. Licking her lip, she walked straight to the machine, eyes fixed without observing her surroundings.
A few more steps to the machine, she fell on her bottom due to collision on her right. She looked up and saw someone she hopes she won't see that night. The guy from her brother's wedding. The Jeon Jungkook a.k.a Golden Maknae BTS. Yep, she knew him after her eonni shoved an earphone for her a few years back during their comeback. Upon seeing him in the MV, Lisa' s eyes widen. She was shocked and at the same amazed by their performance. It was a bop. But not knowing that the man was her senior was kinda rude. Well, that time she was too dense to acknowledge what happened in the entertainment world other than practising and prepared for monthly evaluation.
"Hello, we meet again Lisa-ssi." He gave her his bunny smile. But Lisa saw that as a mocking smile. He must know that Lisa was embarrassed at that moment due to their last encounter.
She looked at his hand that offered to help her. Lisa ignored the hand gesture and got up by her own and control the blush threatened to form on her face. She cleared her throat and switched on her cold mode.
"Yes, sunbae. It was nice seeing you again. I'm sorry for not recognizing you back then. I hope that the incident will not happen again in the future." She bowed to him and proceeded to the vending machine to grab her snacks.
She puffed her breath to reduce her nervousness but started to select the choco bar she likes and reaching for her money in her back pocket but found nothing. Oh no! she forgot she wore her performance outfit and did not bring any money with her.
Stupid Lisa. She wanted the choco bar.
Suddenly a hand from her right entered her view, the hand, inserted a banknote into the machine and push a Snickers snack's button. Lisa looked to her right and saw the same face. He hasn't left yet. She stepped aside and gave space to Jungkook to purchase his snacks. Lisa pouted her mouth and eyed the Snickers longingly. But what happened next was beyond her expectation.
"Here take it. You face is ugly when you scrunched your nose. It's my treat. Eat well doll." He patted her head and handed her the choco bar. Lisa stood there overwhelmed, a hiccup escaped from her mouth.
When Blackpink was called to sit at their respective seats in front of the stage, Lisa tried to act natural. Her heart was beating like crazy and across from their group was where BTS sat. The big screen was located behind Blackpink, so Lisa's conscience felt many eyes were on her. But only one gaze that made her squirming in her seat that time, a certain maknae. She tried to act normal as possible but failed because Jisoo eonni noticed her behaviour.
"Are you okay Lisa?"
"Yes, eonni. I'm just tired." She gave her eonni and smile and coincidentally have eye contact with a guy across her. He was smirking in her way. Like he knew she was nervous because of him. Son of a carrot. Lisa grunted in her head.
She decided to ignore the penetrating glances she received by focusing on the stage and enjoyed other performers and clapped when someone won an award. And then when BTS was announced as a winner for an award, Lisa averted her eyes and looked elsewhere while clapping. The decorative plants looked more tempting and beautiful that night.
Soon when the night ended, Lisa felt very happy and laid on her bed with eye closed. What made Jungkook being friendly to her played in her mind. As she was drifting to sleep, her phone received a notification from an unknown number.
Unknown: Today was fun. Hope to see you soon doll.
Who was this? She panicked thinking about sasaeng.
Lisa: Who are you? Where did you get my number?
Lisa waited for five minutes without any reply. She bit her lip. Should she tell her eonni? Another notification entered.
Unknown: I'm your future bf or hubby (we can make that happen). No need to know where I got your number. Sleep tight doll. Dream of me okay 😊
That was it. She shouted for her eonni.
