How We Met

37

"Jagi..."

"No, baby" Chaeyoung tilts her head to meet the Thai's doe eyes. "No more kissing until the funeral is over"

"Ugh, I hate you"

"Yeah, I love you too"

They walk down back to where they left their family and friends behind, hands in hands.

A few people come and greet Lisa, offering  her  their condolences before scooting away and Chaeyoung couldn't help but to grin at Lisa's disgusted facial expression whenever she is forced to hear one.

"Be nice, baby" she reprimands her fianceé before connecting their lips lightly and pulls away, just in enough time to make the Thai smiles giddily.

"Hey, kiddo. How are you feeling?"

Mason greets Lisa after the funeral. Lisa smiles weakly before feeling Mason's arms around her whole existence. "Just want to tell you that you're doing great and we are all proud of you"

"Thanks, Mr. Park"

"You can call me dad, now" the man winks his eyes.

"Ugh, umm ... maybe later?"

"Lisa!" Clare mentions in her clear voice. "You look tired my baby. Do you want me to cook you something? Just show me where the kitchen is and I'll make something real quick for you"

"Clare... It's okay..."

"You should call me mom" the woman insists. "I mean, I'm practically your mom. Your are engaged to my other daughter"

"But..." Lisa pouts.

"No but, young lady. Come on, show your mom where the kitchen is and I'll cook your perhaps a soup to call you down"

"Fine, Clare" Lisa sighs before is met by Clare's death glare; the same one like Chaeyoung's.

"I mean mom!" Lisa says in panic before calling her maid in Thai. "Can you take my mom to the kitchen?"

"Sure" the woman nods before guiding Clare into the kitchen.

Lisa takes a seat on the couch, her hand is fixed to Chaeyoung's.

"Do you guys have to look like that always?" Jisoo snickers as she grabs a magazine from under the coffee table, flipping through its pages before giving up, knowing she can't read Thai at all.

"Like what?" Lisa spreads her other arm around Chaeyoung's shoulder.

"Like this. So disgustingly in love with one another"

"Shut up. You're always like that too when Jennie is around" Lisa claps back and Chaeyoung throws her head backwards as she laughs.

"Also, Lisa. Are you coming back with us tomorrow?"

"To where?"

"Korea?"

"Oh" Lisa scratches her nape. "Maybe? I don't know ..."

"You can't stay here" Jisoo rolls her eyes.

"She's right" Chaeyoung nods. "You can't stay here"

"Maybe I need to for a moment"

"Umm, no" Chaeyoung says as she stares into Lisa's dreamy eyes. "I know you're gonna be sad if you keep being here. So, I suggest we can go back and have fun for a couple of days before school starts again"

"Chae" Lisa laughs. "You are ..."

"Actually excuse us for a moment" Chaeyoung says, grabbing Lisa by her hand. "I need to show her something if you guys don't mind"

"What's that something?" Jisoo asks innocently before earning a slap on the back from Jennie and Mason coughs loudly before retreating to the kitchen where Clare is.

"Something important"

Chaeyoung mumbles as she shoves Lisa up the stairs.

"See ya in an hour"

"Jagi, what's wrong?"

Lisa asks as they are locked inside her room, again.

"I actually bought you something for Christmas"

The blonde says, producing a small box from her pocket.

"You don't have to, baby"

"But I want to. So, chill and open it"

"Fine"

Lisa tears the wrappers but pauses dramatically.

"But I didn't get you anything for Christmas"

"I got mine" Chaeyoung waves her ring at Lisa. "This one, remember?"

"That's not a Christmas gift"

"It is to me, dummy. Now, just take a look at what I have got you, Manoban"

"Fine, miss Cranky"

Lisa tears the wrappers apart perfectly and this time her face blushes.

"It's a stupid gift" Chaeyoung explains, pointing at a box of Condom she has gotten Lisa. "But the real gift is when you wear it and sink inside me" Chaeyoung mumbles seductively, nibbling on Lisa's earlobe.

"Jagiya..."

"What say you?"

"Bed" Lisa pants. "Let's go to bed"
