AT BAE'S PLACE

"Joohyun, darling, why do you look so excited for the festival? Are you going to stroll out with Jinyoung?" Mrs. Bae asked her only child.

"Nope, this idiot and I will attend a friend's party but probably I'll meet up with Jinyoung. He invited me out. I probably just meet him later after the party."

Mrs. Bae looked at her daughter's side and only gave a bitter smile. "Oh, I am glad Lisa's going to the party." She said. "Just drink responsibly, okay? And be home on time. Don't make me worry about you."

"Yes, Mom. And Lisa is with me. She'll take care of me." Irene assured her worried Mom.

Irene's forehead furrowed as she watched Lisa slicing the carrot incorrectly. She forgot her mom was even there. When she woke up this morning she headed straight to the kitchen and saw her Mom preparing the ingredients for breakfast she then volunteered to help her mom to cook.

Lisa being Lisa who always hangs out in their house especially there's no class today since it's Holiday, joined her but it's just ended up in a disaster when she's around the kitchen.

"Yah, what did I tell you? Slice it vertically. Why did you make it into triangular shapes?" She looked at the carrots and the horribly cut potatoes too. She carefully took the knife from Lisa and demonstrated how to do it correctly. The latter just scratched her head.

"See, it will be easier for mom to cook this. Why are you not even listening to me, Lili? I thought you wanted to learn to cook. At least try to learn how to prepare the ingredients properly, okay?"

Irene giggled because Lisa only gave her a pout. She also felt bad that she was nagging like a mom to her. She just watched her as she suddenly stood up. "Where are you going, Lili? Hey, you told me you'll help me and mom too? We won't let you eat free foods if you keep making excuses. No room for your lazy ass, Lili. Come back here!"

Mrs. Bae took a deep sigh seeing her daughter laughing as she was running around the kitchen. She just sadly shook her head as she slowly took her to leave. Good old memories. Lisa and Irene were really close to the point that they would always bicker every now and then and fight like real lovers.

She knew better than the two had something special. She would never judge her daughter and she actually liked Lisa a lot even Jinyoung seemed to be really a nice guy. She knew Lisa's someone who could make her only daughter really happy. She was still wondering why her daughter didn't see Lisa's feelings for her. She then went to check outside their house to get the bills from the mailbox. Her attention turned to Lisa's scooter. She smiled as she remembered how the two would always complain about the scooter shutting down in the middle of the road that they needed to push it until they got home.

She kept reminding Lisa to have it repair and finally the girl had listen to her. Now the scooter is just sitting outside their house because Irene just wanted to walk around these days.

Mrs. Bae could still hear her daughter's loud laughs from the house. A mother always knows best and wishes nothing but her child's happiness, no more or no less. She wished she could somehow make it possible.

Irene bid her mom goodbye as she didn't want them to be late at Joy's party. They already promised to come on time because it's always hard to invite her monkey best friend. She was so glad that for the first time Lisa then accepted without arguing with her. Perhaps because it's their last year in college.

Well, Joy's party was a massive one with a lot of high-profile students and university club leaders. Irene joined her other friends inside to get them some drinks. Lisa decided to stay away from the crowd and just be comfortable watching everyone enjoyed themselves.
