Never Ever Again (JENLISA)

Chapter 21

Lisa

AFTER OUR GRADUATION, we ate some delicious food together and talked about our lives before we separate our ways. Ten and Bambam will celebrate their success together. The five girls–Irene unnie, Seulgi unnie, Wendy unnie, Joy and Yeri will go shopping. Jisoo unnie and Chaeng will go on a date while I have no idea about Somi and Sunmi unnie. And about me and Jennie, we will buy our house. We're now inside the car. I'm the one who's driving, ofcourse.

Earlier, right after our graduation, Sehun and Kai approached us. So the squad finally met Kai. And they quickly clicked with each other. Because of that, they ate with us but they immediately left because of some reasons. But there's something bothering me. The moment Jennie and Kai met each other earlier, Jennie couldn't stop smiling. Should I be bothered about that? Aish. Nevermind. Jennie won't do something that will hurt me.

"Honey, congratulations again for being the Valedictorian." She said and caressed my hand that she's holding. I couldn't help but to smile widely.

"Congratulations to you too, baby, for being a Summa c*m Laude. I'm so proud of you."

"Thank you, baby." She said in a cute way. I chuckled at her.

After some more minutes, we finally arrived infront of our future house. I already contacted the seller and said that we will come today so I am sure that she's here right now.

We went out of the car and walked towards the house while holding each other's hand.

The first time we went here, the seller was obviously interested on me so Jennie couldn't stop glaring at her. So I hope everything will be fine now.

"Hey! You're finally here!" The seller named Tzuyu ran to us. I was surprised when she suddenly hugged me. "Nice to see you again, Lisa!" She said in excitement. Jennie quickly pulled me away from her and held my hand tightly. I looked at her and she's glaring at Tzuyu again.

Oh my gosh. The things she will do because of jealousy.

"So, you're really going to buy this house?" She asked for confirmation. I nodded at her. I took out my black card and politely handed it to her.

"You're accepting card right?"

"Ofcourse! Wow, Lisa, I didn't know that you're one of those people who have this black card. I didn't know that you're rich!" I shyly smiled at her.

"What is it to you if she's rich?" My eyes widened when I heard Jennie's cold voice.

"N-Nothing! It was a compliment." Tzuyu nervously replied. "Wait for me here. I'll just set up the payment and after that, you can finally get this house." She smiled warmly at us, or I should say at me, before she walked away.

"What's wrong with her? I hate her." My girlfriend said and there's really a hint of annoyance in her tone.

"Why do you hate her? She's nice." I uttered. She glared at me.

"She likes you for pete's sake and I hate that!" She hissed. I stopped myself from smiling.

"So, are you saying that you are jealous?" I teasingly asked her.

"Excuse me? What? Me? Jealous? Never. Tch." I chuckled.

"Oh really?"

"Really."

"Even if I'll give her my number?"

"No!" She quickly replied. I laughed at her.

"So, you're not jealous, huh?" I teased. She nudged me in the ribs. "Aww!"

"That's what you got for teasing me. And I'm really not jealous. Never." She then let go of my hand and crossed her arms. I knew it. She was pissed already.

"You won't really admit it, eh?" I poked her mandu cheeks.

"Admit what?"

"That you are jealous." She looked at me and threw a glare again.

"Stop." She firmly said. I shook my head and continued poking her cheeks. "Yah, I said stop!" She shoved my hands away. I pouted at her.

"That's rude!" I whined. She rolled her eyes.

"I told you to stop but you continued poking my cheeks."

"I love poking your mandu cheeks."

"What? Mandu cheeks? Are you serious? Do you want me to hit you?" I shook my head.

"So, you're really not jealous?"

"No." I pouted more. If she's not jealous, then why did she act like that earlier? Why did she glare like that at Tzuyu like she's going to kill her anytime?

I took some steps away from her and left some space between us. I'm upset. Is it hard for her to admit that she was jealous? Or she's really not jealous?

Aish! Nevermind.

"Hey, why are you so far from me? Do I have a virus or what? Come here, you dumb." I heard her said. I ignored her. I just stayed on my place.

"Yah! Come here!" She repeated. I shook my head.

When I didn't come closer to her, she approached me and held my wrist.

"What's the problem?" She irritatedly asked.

"You said you're not jealous." I whispered and looked away.

"What? I didn't hear you." I tsked. Ofcourse, she won't hear it because I just whispered it. "Fine!" I was startled because of her loud voice. I looked at her with my brows furrowed. "I'm jealous! I didn't like it when someone shows interest to you! I didn't like it when someone else is clinging to you." She stated. I blinked my eyes repeatedly.

"P-Pardon?" She rolled her eyes.

"I'm jealous, Lisa. I don't like seeing someone else clinging into you and even making you smile." She said in a serious tone. A smile immediately formed on my lips.

"My Nini is jealous, huh. I knew it." I teased. She threw a glare on me. I pulled her closer to me and repeatedly kissed her cheeks. "I love you, okay? Only you and it will always be you." And with that, I gave her a peck on her lips. She couldn't help but to smile. She jokingly nudged me in the ribs.

"I hate you."

"No, you love me."

"Yeah. I love you more than you love me."

"No. I love you more."

After a few more minutes, Tzuyu went back to us and gave me back my black card.

"Welcome to your new house. Hope you'll enjoy living here. Especially you, Lis." She uttered.

"Ofcourse, she'll be happy because we will live together under the same roof." And here we go again with my bitchy jealous girlfriend.

"A-Ah, yeah. I-I think I should go now?"

"Sure. Take care and thank you." After that, she finally left. I held Jennie's hand and intertwined our fingers before we entered our new house. It's so clean inside. You won't see any dirt.

We were busy looking around the house when I suddenly realized something.

"Jennie." I called my girlfriend's name. She looked at me with a small smile on her face. "Is it okay to your parents that you'll live with me?" I asked. Ofcourse, I want to make sure that her parents is fine with Jennie living with me. Because if they are, it means they trust me and their daughter. But if they aren't, I need to gain their trust, first.

"Don't worry, Lili. They are fine with that. They trust you." I couldn't help but to smile brightly at her.

After we looked around our new house, we went in the living room and sat on the couch.

"We'll transfer our things here tomorrow. For now, we need to rest. Do you wanna sleep in your house or we'll just rest here?" I asked her while I'm holding her hands. Her hands is so tiny. She's really like a baby.

"Ofcourse, I want to rest here with you." I lovingly stared at her. A goddess. Her kissable lips, her mandu cheeks, her gummy smile that makes my heart flutter every single time, and her cat-like eyes. She's so perfect.

"Hey, Lili, are you listening?" I was back to my senses when I felt Jennie tapping me.

"Oh, sorry if I spaced out. What is it again, baby?"

"I'm asking you if it's okay if I'll just ask our drivers to transfer our things here so we wil not get tired."

"Hmm, if that's okay with them, then okay."

"Alright. I'll tell them to transfer those now." My brows furrowed.

"Now?" She nodded. "Baby, don't you think we should just do it tomorrow?"

"Lili, we can do it now. So no more buts, okay?" She took out her phone from her bag and messaged her drivers. She also sent them my address. While she's busy with that, I dialled Chae's number. Luckily, she picked it up.

"Hey, Lis, what's up?"

"Hey, are you in our house?"

"Yep. Chu, Bam and Ten are with me. Why?"

"Jennie's drivers will come there to pick up my things to transfer it here." I stated.

"Wait, what? Where? Where are you?" She asked obviously confused. I was about to answer her when she spoke again. "Oh, wait! Right. You already bought your house?"

"Yup. So, can you wait for the drivers?"

"Ofcourse! I'm happy for the both of you, Manobal."

"Yeah. Thank you. I am happy, too." I replied with a wide smile.

After some more chitchats, I already ended the call.

"Rosie said that they can wait for the drivers to pick up my things."

"Wait, Lili, did you already pack your things?" I assured her with a smile.

"I already prepared everything, baby." She moved closer to me as she placed her face on the crook of my neck while her hands are wrapping around my waist. I couldn't help but to enjoy her sweet scent.

After an hour, Jennie's drivers arrived here in our new house. They placed our things on the living room because I said so. After that, they already left.

"Nini, that one on the left is your room and the one on the right is mine, okay? Come on. I'll help you with those." I helped her on carrying her things inside her room. She stopped me at first because she didn't want me to get tired but I refused. It's my responsibility so I'll help her always.

"I'll visit you later after I arranged my things in my room." I kissed her forehead first before I entered my room and started arranging my things such as my clothes. As I mentioned before, dresses and feminine clothes doesn't fit my tastes so I have a lot of loose polo blouses, hoodie, shirts, and jeans.

To tell you honestly, I feel so nervous because this will be the first day that me and Jennie will live together under the same roof. I mean, I already readied myself for this but I couldn't help but to feel nervous.

While I'm busy on arranging my clothes inside my closet, my phone suddenly rang. I saw Kai's caller ID. Even though I don't know why he suddenly called me, I still picked it up.

"Hey, oppa."

"Aigoo. Lisa-ssi, no need to call me that, okay? It's okay. You're just 3 years younger than me."

"Alright. Why did you call?"

"Actually, Sehun asked me to call you because he wants to congratulate you for being the Valedictorian. And I want to congratulate you, too, man." I chuckled. He's really fun to be with. Funny, right? I hate him at first but look at us now. I already managed to let out a chuckle because of him. I am sure that we will get closer in just a short time.

"Thank you, Jonginie." I called him in his nickname.

"Wow. My nickname sounds so weird when it comes to you." He joked that made me chuckle again.

"That's a nice pet name, Kai."

"Hey! Don't call it a pet name!" Base on his tone, I can tell that he's already pouting. I cringed on that thought.

"Stop pouting, Kai. Disgusting."

"You're so harsh."

"Oppa, I'll hang up now. I'm currently doing something." I uttered.

"Okay. Let's hang out together next time, okay? Don't worry, I won't take you away from Jennie. You're like my sister." He said with a laugh. I laughed, too.

"Okay, okay. Just call me when and where. Bye, oppa. Also, congratulate Sehun, too, for me."

"Noted, Lisa. Bye." And with that, we ended the call.

He's a nice person. I want to know him more. I feel like he's going to be my brother. Not in blood. But in heart.

"Lili, dinner is ready. I ordered some foods for us." Jennie said from outside my room. I hurriedly stood up from laying down on my bed before I headed out of my room. "Hey, you looked so tired. Are you okay?" She worriedly asked. I love how she cares for me. I held her hand and squeezed it lightly.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Let's eat." We went in the dining area and started eating the foods together.

"Do you want to go somewhere tomorrow?" I asked in the midst of eating.

"It's up to you, Lili. If you want to go somewhere, then I'll go with you." She replied with a smile. I smiled back.

While we're busy on eating, I suddenly remembered something. I let out a deep sigh before I spoke.

"Jennie, I want to tell you something." I seriously said. She looked at me with her brows furrowed.

"What is it? Go on. As long as you're not going to break up with me." I chuckled because of what she just said.

"I'll never do that, baby."

"So, what is it?"

"I have to go back in Thailand for a month. You know, I already miss my parents. I want you to go with me but sadly, you need to stay here and pursue your dreams. Don't worry, baby, I'll come back quickly." I softly said. She pouted as she held my hand and caressed it.

"I'll wait for you, honey. Don't worry. If you want me to stay here and pursue my dreams, then I'll do it. I love you." My heart melted upon hearing those sweet words from the love of my live, the one and only Jennie Kim.

"I love you, too, baby." I uttered.

But the question here is, what if when I come back, she's already in someone's arms? What if she'll fall out of love? What if she'll end things between us?

There's so many what ifs in my life. And I won't live a peaceful life with those what ifs.

But I trust her. I love her, so I trust her. Even just this time, I want to take the risk.
