We Don't Talk Anymore

Chapter 14 (JK's 6th Step - I Like You)

*LISA's POV*

"Lisa.. Doll.. I like you!" he said.

I was so shocked.

I already knew it earlier when Jennie Unnie said it all of a sudden but why it's so different hearing those things with his lips.

I don't know how to react.

I look away to avoid his eye.

Heat is covering my whole face and I feel my heart beats fast.

He holds my chin and slowly moves my face to look at him.

I see his doe eyes, forming tears.

I gulp and blink my eyes, I need to say something.

"Ahmm.. JK I'm..." I never finished my words when he suddenly stops my lips by holding with his thumb.

He never takes his eyes off me, "Before saying anything, I want you to listen to me first." He said and I just nodded

He let out a heavy sigh, "Every time you're around, I always see myself staring at you and smiling in the air. I don't know what is happening to me but when I'm with you my heart beats like there's no tomorrow. I always feel nervous and my tongue stuck every time you are talking to me. My world literally stops when I see you smile, when you're calling my name and when you're holding my arms. I don't know if it's appropriate to say but you're the reason why my evil self-awake and you're also the reason why that evil of me calm. In short you're my weakness and strength." He stated.

Hearing those words to him makes me feel more confuse. This feeling is so unfamiliar to me.

He sighed again and look away to hide his forming tears, but before that I already see it.

I finally have the chance to talk, "Look, I'm sorry that you feel that way to me. If it's because of what happened to us last time in the director's room, I am really sorry. May be you're just confuse with your feelings because we're so comfortable to each other that time. And if it's because of our tag name, don't misinterpret it when I am calling you bunny. What I mean is you can't say that you like a person if you just met him/her a few days ago." I said.

I waited his reaction, this is not the first time that someone confesses their feelings to me but this is my first time to respond, and I don't know if I said the right word that would not hurt his feelings.

He keeps on staring at me, no reaction just his doe eyes.

I feel worried, maybe he was offended on what I said.

I hold his arm, and slightly shake it.

"Hey, wanna say something? I'm sorry!" I said

I was shocked when all of a sudden he laughs.

"Yah, why are you laughing? What so funny huh? I knew it; you're just making a joke, right?" I said while hitting his chest.

He stops laughing and hold my hand that's in his chest. I try to let go my hand but he is so strong.

I look at him; I see that his laugh turns to a very bright smile.

"You don't understand Lisa; I like you since the first time I saw you and it's not in the bar nor in the director's room. I like you for almost 2 years, and I still feel the same up to now." He said.

I move backward, look away again to hide my tomato-like cheeks.

Why I feel this way again? Why I feel nervous?

He move forward and put his two hands in my shoulder.

"Doll, I don't want to force you to like me too. I just want you to know what I feel towards you. I'm so tired of hiding it for years. And I don't want you to change after knowing these things." He said.
