《A Mindful Relationship [Jensoo]》Chapter 23
Advertisement
"I really never expected you to be so forward Jennie."
"I'm sorry." I apologized right away to the person right in front of me. Legs crossed and arms folded, sitting on a chair with great poise, staring at me intensely and tone calm yet stern.
While I was here, a nervous wreck so early in the morning. Sitting on our table, looking down and fidgeting here and there. Trying to focus but can't help but think the worse happenings to come.
"Is what you said true though?" They started again after a long time of silence.
"Y-Yes." I stuttered out. But of course my tone was sure. I do mean what I said. And yet I'm still so nervous.
I messed up so bad.
"Look Lisa-."
"Hell yes!!!" An enthusiastic yell came out of her mouth and a wide smile plastering immediately on her face. She slammed her hands on our table then started ruffling my hair with joy.
I was about to scold her for ruining my perfectly arranged hair but couldn't when she just hugged me so tight. Squealing and jumping around. "Wh-Wha..."
"Finally!!! Gosh, you were being so obvious since the day you met her and FINALLY you admitted and realized your feelings!" She squealed out. Finally sitting back on her chair and looking at me like I was a treasure to behold.
What the heck is wrong with this blonde.
"Lisa-." I tried once again but to no avail.
"Don't worry! I won't tell her anything! I'll make sure to shut my mouth and keep this between us. She won't know I swear! Not unless y'know, you tell her yourself. Which I doubt because your such a shy baby to do that. Gosh!!! I can't believe my ship is sailing! I'll be the best Captain I swear!" She ranted on and about with so much excitement and support. Even clapping her hands together and creating childish expressions that makes her so cute.
"Lisa." I called out again. This time, she listened and prepped herself to face me with a little grin.
"Yes Kim?"
"Your... gosh... you already thought I liked her even before I realized it myself?" My hands wiped the very surface of my face from my forehead to my chin then looking at her incredulously while she just laughed at me. A little bit of remorse would be fine honestly. "Lisa, don't you think it's crazy? I've only met her for weeks! It hasn't even been much time that we've met but I'm already liking her!" I threw my hands in the air, slumped down in defeat, folded my arms while she laughed harder and harder.

Sensing my mood was getting down, she let out a breath of amusement then patted my shoulder.
"And..?" She reasoned out. Her eyes filled with concern, amusement and excitement.
She literally does not care.
"And... isn't that quite inappropriate? I mean, how can you feel something like THIS towards somebody when that somebody hasn't even been much in your life than anyone else?" I narrowed my eyes towards her and it took her quite the moment to start cackling again. I just sighed because hope is all lost for me now.
"Your point?"
"It's crazy!" I exclaimed while standing up, slamming my hands down the table and heaving for breaths because I am SO frustrated with this blonde.
"Being in love cannot be explained Jennie Kim. Love isn't understandable."
I opened my mouth to retort but then I couldn't say anything because she is right. She arced a brow as if telling me to continue and go on with what I was supposed to say and smirked in victory as I huffed down my seat.
I rolled my eyes and avoided eye contact at any cost with her because I KNOW nothing would come right of my mouth if I did look at her.
"Right, of course. Non understandable at all. I remember now that your the hopeless idiot in love here with us two." I mumbled under my breath which she obviously heard because she is suppose to hear it. Offensive or not.
"Hey... when I saw Chaeyoung for the first time I thought the world just stopped and her striking beauty overwhelmed me. Like I was in front of a goddess." Her tone filled with adoration and... gosh, love? She exclaimed out of joy. "I don't really know what stopped me from kneeling at that time and asking Chaeyoung to marry me when we were younger."
"Gross!" I cringed when I faced her again, only to see her hugging herself and sighing in satisfaction. With her eyes closed, she grinned like an idiot.
"Yes! I mean, no! Gosh, shut up Jennie. I'm here to help you and your making me lose my urge to help you. So listen to your Master yes?" She kept nodding her head then booped my nose with her finger.
"Um... what?"
"Listen to your Master! I'll be helping you with all of this!" She suggested with pure confidence. She's serious.
"Uh... thanks? But don't state yourself as MY Master." I was still all confused about all this but the fact that she called herself MY master does not sit right with me.

"Why not?"
"It ain't for you."
"Oh?"
I stared at her with eyes of disinterest then sighed and laid my head down the table. Already wondering what she's thinking. Must be stupid.
"What's with that smirk?" I drawled out, uninterested with whatever she's really gonna say.
"Nothing."
Knew it was stupid. I raised my head and glared at her stupid grin.
"Nothing. Nothing. Now let's focus on getting you with my Unnie." Lisa's expression became serious while she closed her eyes and thought?
After a couple of minutes of just staring at her. Trying to find a bit of expression change but none. She was in DEEP thought. I sighed, defeated.
"Unbelievable. I'm actually taking lessons from an idiot. Who's in love for years with our best friend. I suppose that's not too bad." I mumbled to myself and was hoping to see a slight shift of expression from Lisa but I guess she didn't mind what I said "Still can't believe you like our best friend that only thinks of her soulmate and herself."
"Correction!" She suddenly yelled and pointed a finger to the sky then pointed at me with her eyes still closed but a soft smile displaying on her face. "I love Chaeyoung."
"Disgusting." I whispered to myself which she unfortunately heard.
Her eyes shot up and she gasped in offense. Her hand on her chest and her brows quite furrowed.
"Please... the way you look at Unnie is something else." She rolled her eyes while flapping her hand in front of my face vertically.
I swatted her hand away then glared at her before asking, "What about it?"
"I can see hearts in your eyes Jennie Kim." I blushed at that because that may be true. She cringed and gagged. "Disgusting."
"Shut up Manoban."
A long moment of silence passed by and I felt the anxiety crawl up to me again and so I anxiously asked Lisa about her opinion about the situation because she seemed to not be taking anything seriously at all. Except Chaeyoung.
"Sure am! I've been rooting for the two of you from the start." She nonchalantly replied while shrugging and there I was just gaping at her.
She doesn't understand at all!
I huffed down then groaned. Lisa was helping me with literally nothing. What did I really expected from such an idiot. Except that she was a lovesick idiot for our best friend.
"Okay, so how many did you drink?" She suddenly asked while tapping her fingers on the table and I looked at her incredulously. "When you sent me the message that you liked Jisoo Unnie so much." She added while narrowing her eyes towards my direction that made my eyes go round in shock and embarrassment.
And then it hit me. She was talking about last night! Last night that I couldn't quite remember. Some flashes of me drinking and texting came to me which made my head spin.
"How did you know I was drinking?" I asked while holding my head and cursing myself silently.
"Except for the hundreds of gibberish but understandable enough that you wrote for her through message, it was pretty bold of you to say all those." She replied while nodding as if agreeing to her words. I scoffed and looked her blankly. "So I assumed right away that you were drinking."
"Gosh..." I facepalmed myself and grumbled incoherent curses at my drunk self.
"You were quite cute Kim."
"Ew!" I immediately exclaimed once she said that and deliberately had the audacity to wink at me. "Shut up Lisa. I just felt goosebumps all over." I held my arms and rubbed them up and down.
"I was complimenting you!"
I didn't mind that because I was busy contemplating all my life choices.
"If I would've sent that to her myself... gosh... I can't believe this." I covered my face and let out a full out groan of embarrassment.
Just thinking of whatever could've happened makes me nauseous. I feel like I'd bury myself alive right here and now.
"That would've been funny!" Lisa laughed in amusement. "Unnie wouldn't know what to do when she sees your oh so romantic confession."
"Don't talk anymore." I squeezed her mouth shut and there she goes mumbling whatever.
I was too busy being miserable here and there she is laughing at me. Why am I even friends with this jerk.
"Wanna know some info about Unnie?"
A total jerk who is friends with my crush.
I gave her a side eye then smiled a bit before facing her and telling her, "Shoot."

Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder
I, Mick Chadwick, regret to inform my readers that this memoir contains nothing but the truth, which in the case of Tobias MacClain, most ridiculed as Pajama Boy, is far from pleasant. If you seek to relate to a hero more than to aspire to them and have the stomach for unpleasant things such as a hero left for dead, villainous scars, bomb threats, and murderous intent, then look no further. All of these gruesome things and more await from my research, and though I do not wish them on any man or woman, I cannot bear this burden on my own much longer. In the words of Tobias MacClain himself, "Sometimes, a villainous act can cause the greatest good." I hope that all my villainous acts of sneaking, blackmailing, diary-reading, and grave-digging, among others, will be redeemed as I present this complete and truthful memoir to the world, and with any luck, open eyes to the truth of what we call "villainy". Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder ********* MATURE FILTER IS FOR:- violence- graphic imagery (blood, burns, fairly dark headspaces)- cartoon depiction of burn scars for visual aid Despite graphics, Mick Chadwick's writing keeps Mr. MacClain's terrible tale light somehow. This is foremostly a comedy.
