Blind Date Gone Wrong || JenLisa

Chapter Twenty-three

Minutes later
Outside Irene's Sorority House

"Hey, what's wrong?" Lisa asked, noticing that Irene had not even uttered a single word on their walk home. "You've been silent lately."

The streets were still covered by snow, making Lisa hug her elbows. All of a sudden, Irene turned around, her brows furrowed in confusion and something between fear and rage. "You and Jennie... did you two use to date?"

"What?" Lisa stopped walking. The streets were almost deserted apart from some students going about their late night errands.

The dark haired girl avoided the thai's eyes. "It's just that I... I sense some tension between the two of you... and it's really bothering me.."

Lisa felt a sudden ache inside of her, realizing that she was the worst person in the entire world. Irene deserved to know the truth. Irene didn't deserve being lied to, or even being played upon.

The Thai slowly nodded her head then upon seeing a change in Irene's expression, Lisa quickly explained about the whole blind date thing and that Jennie was a straight girl. Or so Lisa thought, but she left that part out.

"Jennie is not straight, she's wearing rainbow socks, for Pete's sake," Irene snapped. This startled the thai. She had never seen Irene this mad before. In fact, Lisa had never seen Irene got mad at her like that.

"I..."

"You're holding something back...."

"What?"

"Did you two... you know...."

Lisa only dropped her mouth open but she couldn't get herself to explain.

"Oh my God!" Irene was freaking out.

"Hey... Irene.. Jennie and I are just friends, okay?"

Then Lisa received a strong blow against her cheek. The sound filled the chilly air of the night and it might have echoed towards the next street.

"Is this what you are, Lisa, huh?" Irene exclaimed, her voice loud and breaking. "Taking advantage of your dates? Lying to them just so you can get laid with each one of them? I thought you were different!"

"No, Irene, that's not true-" Lisa stepped closer towards Irene. She wanted to hug the girl, to make her believe that she was trying her best to keep her promise. But Irene pushed her by the shoulders, her nostrils fuming.

"Fuck off, Lisa!"

Minutes later
Lisa's bedroom, Chahee's apartment

Lisa stared at the white ceiling before her as she lay on her bed. She didn't bother to change from her work uniform. Sleep seemed like a long way to go as she thought about Irene, about Ten and about Jennie. It was all too much and overwhelming to the thai.

What Lisa did to Irene had been unforgivable. The thai led her on, thinking that they would eventually have a future together. It was all for nothing. It was all for trying to get over from a certain brunette. And Lisa hated herself even more for it.

Irene deserved so much. And Lisa only took her for granted. She should have just been honest to her from the start. She had used Irene for her own benefit, she had used her as a cure to her loneliness.

Lisa's tears started to fall uncontrollably from her eyes. She grabbed her pillow and covered her face with it. She screamed and screamed with rage and hatred into the pillow, hoping it would muffle the sound as she released all her emotions. Or so, she tried.

The next day, lunchtime
Cafeteria, University of Seoul

Jennie and Jisoo approached the table already occupied by Lisa, Rosé and Taehyung. Jisoo gave a small peck on Rosé's cheek as she sat down beside her. Jennie sat beside the thai, making Lisa flinch.
