LOWKEY

DAY 02

He just nodded and stepped closer. He fixed the jacket on my shoulder and wrapped it around me.

"Thanks"

"No problem. Why are you out here?"

"Uhmm I couldn't sleep so I decided to go for a walk. How about you?"

"Well, I wanted to talk to you actually. I thought you're asleep already so I was ready to head back to my tent but then I saw you"

I only nod and started walking. He matched my pace and now we're walking beside each other.

He started telling me some stories about himself and I didn't noticed I was suddenly enjoying his company. He would crack some jokes and I find myself laughing but we would immediately cover our mouth so no one could hear us.

"I already told you half of my life. How about you?"

"What?"

"Tell me something about yourself"

"Oh uhm I'm a uhmm ahhhh..."

He suddenly chuckled so I look up to him.

"What? What's funny?"

"How come you don't know yourself?"

I pouted and look ahead.

"You don't have to tell me if you're uncomfortable about it. I'm good with it"

"Thanks V"

"Uhmm Jen, I was actually wondering if you'd li---"

"I hope I'm not disturbing something"

We turn around and saw Lisa looking at us with a blank look.
I gulped and unconsciously moved away from V.

"Actually you are. You don't go snooping on someone else's conversation, Lisa" V said to her.

"Please watch your words, Mr Kim. You don't want to go against me"

"You can't keep doing that to me, Lisa. We're not in school right now so don't use your authority against me"

"We're not in the academy but I am in charge of everyone here so you follow what I say"

"We came here on our will, Lisa. You don't need to look after us like we're children. If something happens, I can assure you that you won't get into trouble if that's what you're afraid of"

Lisa suddenly stepped forward so I immediately went in between them and placed both of my hands on their chest.

"Please don't fight. I'm sorry, Lisa. We were just walking" I tried to explain and look at her.

She was clenching her jaw and was looking at V sharply. I felt V holding my hand and pulled me beside him.

"Come on, Jen. I'll walk you to your tent"

"N-no it's okay. You go ahead. I'll just have a word with her" I said and removed his jacket and gave it to him.

"I'm not leaving you with her"

"Please. I'll follow you soon"

He took a deep breath before taking the jacket and walked away.
I saw him bumped into Lisa as he walk passed her.

When I made sure he's already far away, I step closer to Lisa while fidgeting my fingers.

"Are you mad?"

"Why are you still awake?"

"I'm s-sorry. I couldn't sleep so I needed a walk. I didn't know he's still awake"
