《Hate Me Now, Love Me Later》Chapter 6

Advertisement

Lisa starts to admit that something really is wrong with her.

After they ate lunch the other day, with her trying to casually feed the bitch of a baby with shaking hands and with the casual stares they get from strangers which Jennie nonchalantly says to Lisa to 'do what I've asked you to and stop staring back at them because it's none of their business to stare and it's none of your business if they are staring or to stare back', Lisa realizes one thing,

She starts to love all the things she used to hate.

She starts to love bringing Jennie her breakfast. She starts to love preparing Jennie's things. She starts to love helping Jennie with assignments. She starts to love opening the car door for Jennie. She starts to love fetching her from her room.

Worse, she starts to love being with Jennie.

Lisa confuses herself with the sudden turn of events.

When did she start loving to be bossed around by a bitch?

Lisa doesn't know either.

Though one thing's for sure,

It has to stop.

---------------

"Good morning, Jennie."

When did mornings start becoming 'good'?

"Wow, you're chirpier with each morning." Jennie comments as she stretches in bed.

When did Lisa start becoming chirpier greeting Jennie?

"R-Really?" Lisa asks nervously.

And when did Lisa start becoming nervous around Jennie? And why?

Jennie openly stares at Lisa confusion is evident from both of them.

"Are you high?" Jennie finally asks, a soft giggle following after.

Just when did Jennie's giggles become so darn charming?

"I-I'm not!" Lisa stammers, "I'm always like this."

"Yeah, right." Jennie decides to let it slip, "Give me my food."

"Oh, right." Lisa snaps from her stupid thoughts, "Here you go."

"Hey! Careful!" Jennie quickly holds the tray because apparently, Lisa is shaking. "Why are you shaking?!"

"Wha-? I am?!" Lisa looks at her hands, they were a bit shaking. "Why?!"

"I don't know! Don't ask me about your illnesses!" Jennie creases her eyebrows at Lisa, then it softens, "Wait. Are you sick?"

"What?" The question caught Lisa off guard, "Sick? No, I'm not."

Jennie doesn't seem to hear Lisa, or she just completely ignores it, but then she casts aside her tray of food to stand up and check Lisa's temperature.

Maybe Lisa was really sick because then she can feel her body get real warm from Jennie's touch.

"You're hot." Jennie says.

"I know. No need to state the obvious."

Lisa still manages to joke around.

"Not the 'hot' that you think." Jennie makes a face, "That didn't even cross my mind. Like, hot, hot with a fever."

Jennie continues to place a hand on Lisa's forehead, and Lisa continues to feel the unexpected warmth in her body.

"R-Really?" Lisa gently takes Jennie's hand off her forehead.

Which was a bad idea because Lisa's own hand lingered with Jennie's a little bit longer than Lisa originally planned,

Making Jennie teasingly say, "Are you ready to let go of my hand yet?"

"Tch." Lisa quickly and dejectedly let go of Jennie's hand, "You're stupid."

"Whatever you say, Manoban." Jennie continues with her smirk,

"Whatever you say."

---------------

"Take the day off." Jennie says coolly as she brushes her hair.

Jennie has heard Lisa cough for at least twenty times in a minute already.

"What do you mean?" Lisa looks up from wiping Jennie's study table.

"You're obviously sick!"

"I'm not."

"You are."

"I'm perfectly fine."

"You're perfectly dumb."

"And you're perfectly wrong."

For the first time, it was Jennie who stops answering back. Again, surprising Lisa.

"Lalisa Manoban," Jennie puts down her hairbrush and looks seriously at Lisa, "I order you to take the damn day off and rest."

Lisa only laughs weakly, "Seriously, why do you care, Kim? It's not like you at all."

Lisa continues with her smile, "Maybe you're the one who's sick."

"Shut up." Jennie says lazily, "I just don't want you spewing on the carpet any time soon."

"Oh, really?" Now it's Lisa's turn to tease Jennie with a smirk, "If I haven't known you, I'd rather say you're worried about me."

Jennie starts to walk to Lisa. Jennie only stops when she was inches away from Lisa's face, making Lisa take a step back in shock.

Lisa was expecting Jennie's usual 'Shut up', or her normal 'Stupid' or her casual grunting or scoffing, but instead, Lisa gets the most unexpected answer from Jennie.

One that she was not expecting at all to ever come from Jennie's own mouth.

Ever.

"So, what if I am?" Jennie looks at Lisa straight at the eyes, piercing Lisa with her stares,

"So, what if I am worried about you?"
