porcelain doll, chapter 7

taehyung was stunned.

his eyes were wide and his lips were wide open as he stares at the doll stretching her arms like a human would when waking up.

lisa's eyes fell on the small figure a few meters away from her, "oh! hi?" she shyly says making taehyung's eyes more wide if that's even possible.

"y-you can t-talk?"

lisa was taken aback from the boy's words and soon drowned in her thoughts.

how can she talk? how was she able to talk? why does she look so realistic? why is she acting like a real human? those thoughts filled the two's heads.

"woah, uncle joon is a genius!" taehyung suddenly exclaimed, looking over to lisa who was confused as ever.

"uncle joon?" she whispered making taehyung nod, "yes! he created you and i don't know that it's possible for you to act human as well!" the boy said, admiring the doll's features.

"i-i'm a doll this whole time?" taehyung nodded.

lisa tilts her head in confusion, "how can a doll move, though? no dolls have moved before. does that mean i'm not a doll?" taehyung shook his head, "you're a doll. uncle joon must've put something in you to make you talk but it's weird that your voice doesn't sound robotic. what are you?" the boy curiously questions making lisa quiet.

"yeah... what am i?" lisa mumbles to herself.

"are you possessed like those in horror movies?" taehyung questions, feeling scared all of a sudden.

lisa giggles before shaking her head, "i must've already attacked you if i was." she said.

taehyung sighs in relief, "thank goodness."

lisa chuckles, "what are you doing here anyway?" the doll questions, taehyung then smiled remembering the beautiful voice he heard earlier.

"i heard a beautiful voice here earlier so i came to check it out."

taehyung can't believe he is talking to a doll right now but at least he can have someone to talk to, weirdly cause he felt less lonely with lisa by his side.

"oh-"

"oh! how about you sing, lisa? what if it's you?" taehyung's eyes lit up and started jumping excitedly.

lisa let out a nervous laugh, "my voice is not really good though." she says, her doll eyes looking elsewhere but taehyung.

the twelve-year-old boy huffs, "come on, lisa. i bet it's really going to be beautiful." he says.

lisa sighs in defeat and sat down on jennie's bed, fidgeting her fingers.

she then started singing with her head down low, beautiful words mixed with melodic sounds engulfed the whole room sending chills down taehyung's spine.

taehyung's eyes widened and when lisa finished singing, "you're the voice i heard earlier! i really love your voice." this made the doll blush, not really sure how can a doll blush when it's not a real human being.

taehyung smiled at the blushing female before running his way out of jennie's room, his voice echoing through the house's thin walls.

"dad! can we move lisa back to my room?!"
