"So tell us, what is the deal between you and Jennie-unnie?" Rosé asked me while she was waiting for me to put all my things in my locker.
"Friends." I answered, and she laughed sarcastically.
"Friends, my ass." Seulgi suddenly appeared from nowhere, and that made me flinch.
"Admit it, Lali, you fell for her again." Rosé said something that made me look at her. "Don't worry, we will be there to support you."
"Me too. If you are happy with Jennie, then go for it. Just make sure that this time no one will intervene in your relationship with her. " Seulgi gave me a reassuring smile.
"Should I?" I asked and they looked at each other before they looked and nodded at me. "Don't I look pathetic or something if I get back with her?"
"Absolutely not." Seulgi and Rosé answered in sync.
"I will think about it." I closed my locker and I was about to walk away when suddenly someone grabbed my arm.
"Long time no see, Manoban." It's Hanbin, and he's grinning at me.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't know you." I removed his hold from my arm.
"Kim Hanbin." He introduced.
"Do you need something from me?" He nodded. "What is it?"
"Your best friend." I furrow my eyebrow. "I want Jennie back, so can you help me?"
"The audacity of this asshole." I heard Seulgi say under her breath.
"If you want to have her again, do it by yourself. Don't involve me in your business because I'm not interested." I responded, earning a chuckle from her.
"You still like her, don't you? Did you know she just used you? She chose me instead of you." He asked and he pointed his index finger at me, that made me sigh.
"Yeah, she chose an asshole, dipshit, and dickhead like you, and to be honest, that was the most regrettable and disgusting decision she made in her life." I smirked at him when I saw he gritted his teeth. "You are the one who got used here, not me. She was just curious to know what it feels like to be in a relationship with a disgusting boy like you. "
I saw Seulgi cover her mouth, stopping herself from laughing. Rosé smiled, shaking her head in amusement.
"Still, it doesn't change the fact that she chose me." He boasted, and I rolled my eyes.
"But, she broke up with you after 2 weeks, just like what she did to her other exes. I was her girlfriend for 9 months, and I believe it's already obvious that you are the one who has really played here. It's already five years ago and you're still bringing that up. Aren't you sick of it, Hanbin? Nobody's perfect, we're all making mistakes. Jennie made a wrong decision by choosing someone stupid like you." He clenched his fist and I knew he was going to punch me soon.
Therefore, I'm preparing my first fist as well. I've read a lot of books about self-defense and I haven't tried it on someone yet. If I'm lucky enough, I would be able to prove if the book was useful.
He annoyingly smirked at me, "Answer me, do you still like her? Do you still like that playgirl? Yeah, she is a pretty, hot, sexy, stunning, and smart woman. Sometimes, I can't help but to feel lust towards her. That's why I'm trying my best to have her again because I haven't experienced heaven with her. "
I rolled my eyes.
"You asshole, dickhead, twit, bastard, jackass, pervert, douchebag, scumbag, rascal, lowlife, shit, trash, nasty piece of shit, and son of a bitch. You are never going to have Jennie again, and you should shut your mouth before I make you. If you talk again about nasty things about Jennie or think perverted stuff about her, I'm going to cut your small wiener. " I pointed at his crotch and I glared at him.
He got offended and he was about to punch me, but I punched him first. I felt pain in my knuckles, since this was my first time punching someone in the face.
He stumbled on the grunt and his nose bled. I targeted his nose and I think I broke it.
"Stay away from Jennie. She is already mine, so go find yours." I clicked my tongue in annoyance.
"Looks like my punches and kicks didn't satisfy you, Hanbin-shii." Seulgi crouched down in front of him to match their height and she pulled his hair. "If I see you approaching Lisa and Jennie again, I'm going to kill you."
All the students were just watching us and some of them were taking videos of us.
"What's going on here?" I heard Jennie and the Student Council members approaching us.
Seulgi gave Hanbin a slap in the face before she stepped back.
The Student Council is looking at us back and forth. They analyzed the situation, and I think they already got it since they are all smart and fast enough to understand things.
"What happened here?" Jisoo asked, and she looked at me.
"I punched Mr. Kim Hanbin in the face, and I intentionally targeted his nose because I read online that it can make someone cry." I explained, and I heard Seulgi chuckle.
"Nice one, Lali." She gave me a fist bump, and Rosé shook her head in disbelief.
"Is it true?" Jennie inquired, and I nodded. "I'm not asking about what you did to him."
"Then, what are you talking about?" I looked at her with confusion.
"Is it true I'm yours?" She asked while smiling widely, showing me her famous gummy smile, and that's when my words sank into my head.
"Jen, we have a situation here and I think you should talk about that later in private with her." Irene-unnie said, and I nodded in agreement.
Jennie shook her head, and she walked towards me with a big smile on her face, looking excited to hear my answer.
"Did you already own me? Did I hear it right? I'm already yours." She tilted her head and looked at me cutely.
"Jen, I think you should fix this situation first." I said, she pouted, and she shook her head.
"Answer my question first, Lili." She keeps tugging at my flannel. I shyly scratched the back of my head and I bit my lower lip.
"Y-yes." I stuttered.
"What? I can't hear you, Lili. " I know she heard it, but she is just pretending because she wants everyone to hear it.
"Yes." I looked down.
"Louder Lili." She cupped my face and made me look at her. "Say it loudly and proudly."
"YES, I SAID YOU'RE MINE!!" I shouted, and that made her smile even wider. She tiptoed and she pecked my lips.
"I'm yours, Lili, no one else but yours. No one can steal me from you and remember that you're mine." She kissed the tip of my nose before she turned back to Hanbin.
"Bring him to the principal office." Jennie demanded, and two men suddenly appeared from nowhere.
"Everyone, the show is over!!" Jeongyeon shouted, and everyone got back to their own business.
"Let's go, baby." Jennie smiled at me and she started dragging me. I didn't have a chance to talk to Seulgi and Rosé.
She is so small but she is so strong.
•••
I went to Jennie's private office, and she fed me because she discovered that I skipped lunch to finish my essay. She scolded me for skipping my lunch, and she glared at me when I told her I could feed myself.
I'm already a 23-year-old woman, but she keeps treating me like a 5-year-old kid.
"Say ahh." I opened my mouth and she fed me. "Good girl." She patted my head.
Did she forget that I'm an adult and not a baby?
We finished our food. I think my tummy is going to explode because she fed me too much food. I think she's planning to make me gain some weight.
"Do you want some dessert?" She asked, and I immediately shook my head.
"I'm already full and I think my stomach will explode." I took a deep breath while leaning against the backrest of the chair.
"You sure?" She asked, and I hummed in response.
She sat beside me, and I put my head on her shoulder.
"Are we now girlfriends?" She asked, which made me chuckle.
"You haven't asked me." I closed my eyes and I sniffed her scent.
"If I ask you today, will you say yes?"
"I don't know. Can you give me more time to think?" She hummed in response. "To be honest, I'm having a struggle choosing between following my heart or my mind."
"Following your heart means you agreeing to be with me, and following your mind means you think that we are better off as just friends than lovers." I nodded, and she sighed.
"My heart wants to be with you, but my mind doesn't want to." She held my right hand and she interlaced it with hers.
"Let me change your mind Lili, I want to have you and I promise I'm not going to hurt you again. I'm no longer the Jennie Kim you loved five years ago. I've already changed to a mature and better Jennie Ruby Jane Kim. "
"Can you do me a favor?" I asked.
"Of course."
"Give me 5 days, then I'm going to give my answer on the 6th day."
"Sure, if you need more time to think, I'll be fine with it. Just think about it carefully. Follow your heart, but you should use your brain at the same time. " I felt like she kissed my head.
"Thank you, Jennie."
"You're always welcome, Lalisa."
