I'm Not The One

— Who is going to move into my apartment?

Jisoo and the agent immediately turned their heads towards the voice they

had heard.heard. In fact, the South Korean did it so quickly that it was neck

aching, but of course he hid the pain by transforming the grimace into a

subtle smile.

Without embargo, to the contrary of the Others two, Jennie turn slowly

and with thethe great tranquility that characterized her. She did not

was I going to to do when kicking out the unpleasant occupant of your

department... or so I thought.

The tremor, what do I say tremor, the earthquake, what do I say

earthquake, the tsunami that ran through his entire body as soon as his eyes

found the body and face of the tenant, threw overboard the previous

tranquility and temperance.In just two seconds, that little body that had

been left stuck at the front door, had managed to make him feel what he

had in his24 years of life had not felt. With just one look, the blonde who

was only eighteen paces away, Jennie quickly calculated, had made that the

businesswoman felt naked as her mother brought her into the world.

— What the hell are you? —Jisoo's voice brought out the three women of

their different thoughts—. Did you have a date with Chris Brown or

something like that? —the South Korean asked again, clearlyhad focused

on the bruises, scrapes and small cuts that occupied the largest area of the

blonde's face. Although the wounds did not They were recent, giving his

face a gloomy appearance. —This is Lisa Manoban, she lives here —before the tenant could answer,

the real estate agent rushed the introductions to try to lighten the

moment—. Miss Manoban, are you okay? —he asked, taking several

steps towards the blonde.

As soon as she saw that the agent took several steps towards her, the

tenant He quickly backed away, moving away from any inquisition. The

wall madethat he could not go back any further and he internally thanked

the woman would have stopped his advance upon noticing her discomfort.

— By that are in my home? —he returned to ask to none in particular.

That was the only thing Lisa was going to say before resting against the

wall, waiting for one of the other women to explain why they were there

while she is dedicated to inspect them from its place.

When he met Jennie's appraising gaze, he decided it was bestkeep your

head down, your eyes told too many stories that not even She herself

wanted to remember. On the other hand, the brunette shortened her gaze a

little distance without taking my eyes off the other girl, not because I

didn't want to, I just couldn't.

“Miss Manoban,” the saleswoman cleared her throat before continuing.I

understand that you informed my boss that you had no problems in have

roommates, he told her.

Far of to answer, Lisa HE limited to assent with his head.

"Okay," the real estate agent continued. "These ladies," she pointed.to

Jennie and Jisoo in a useless way because Lisa still didn't look at them—

they wish move tomorrow, if there is no problem with you, of course," he

added,looking back at the blonde and getting the same apathy as before—.

Do you want to interview them or ask them any questions? —what else

did I want?She wanted someone to give the two women a bad time. had

been his nightmare for several hours.

Lisa, again speechless, simply shrugged her shoulders, taking away

importance to the what was i saying the woman. Sighing, the agent continued.

—Well, now that the problems are over, I think there's nothing left to do

but...

"Hm," Jennie's clearing of the throat stopped her. "Is the trouble over?"

Obviously Jisoo wasn't moved one bit by Lisa's accusatory gaze.There is

—Jisoo —Jennie spoke without nervousness—, calm down —she asked

authoritatively and then return his gaze to something more interesting. Like

the blonde, the problem was that Lisa was no longer in the same place.

Jennie shook her head desperately throughout the apartment. looking for

her and released a sigh of tranquillity, bit usual in she, when the found her sitting at the kitchen counter, drinking water while herlegs

swayed in time.

The blonde It seemed alien to it that was passing by to his around.

The brunette frowned as soon as she noticed the suspicious tranquility of

the another young woman and advanced towards her with a firm step. The

sound of her heels againstthe wooden floor, alerting Lisa to the brunette's

movements. The blonde He quickly got down from the counter and walked

away from the brunette, going around the table to stay right at the entrance

to the hallway that led to the rooms.

Jennie stopped at this gesture and, frowning even deeper, spoke.

— How soon can you move in? —he asked dryly and without

anesthesia.

Now I had his attention.

With that, Lisa locked eyes with the brunette and with her head twisted,

focused on analyzing what she had heard. Jennie saw how the mouth of the

—No, no, Miss Jennie... excuse me... I think you misunderstood... —

The agent immediately regretted having said those words. TwoSeconds

later, the brunette's breath was on his neck.

— Did he say that I didn't understand something? —the brunette

asked.stinging.

The woman swallowed and ran a hand across her forehead. Suddenly She

was starting to feel very hot, she sought help from Jisoo, but the South

Korean She was busy trying to locate Rosé with her phone to see if she

could convince Jennie that this was crazy. —What... what... what I meant —he swallowed again—. WhatI meant

that I didn't explain myself well," he corrected himself. "Miss Manoban

—AH WELL, IT ONLY THAT It was missing —Jisoo I was coming back to

She grabbed her purse and walked toward the door. “Let’s go, Jen!” she

said to herfriend—. Make sure this boob-watching saleswoman never

door handle.Maybe one with a better butt if possible because... Jennie? —

with her outside that stinking building.

— MY GOD! —Jisoo, who had been following the interaction, protested.

seemed immune to them.

—Miss Jennie —the real estate agent saw the perfect opportunity toend

this nightmare. Is it any inconvenience for you to have “to share an

apartment with Miss Manoban?” he asked.

—YES —Jisoo screamed.

— “NO!” Jennie snorted.

The woman decided to focus on Jennie, she was going to give her the

—If I'm not mistaken, you informed my boss that this situation was

“Bullshit,” Jisoo added, receiving a disapproving look from herfriend.

—...And as you can see, Miss Manoban has no problem at all — The agent

continued, pointing to the place where the blonde had remained. after

Jisoo's scream, but it was obviously no longer occupied now for her. Jennie

and Jisoo just rolled their eyes at a new change of placefrom Lisa. "We're moving tomorrow," Jennie assured, grabbing her purse.

— WHAT?! NO, NO —the South Korean was still in her state of

denial—. Jennie, wait... -there was started to chase to his friend— think

about it good

—her friend asked her.

—The tit looker is right, Jisoo —the South Korean gave her a look

poisoned to the women. After of all, she had the blame-. Is by fewmonths

and what better way to go unnoticed than to live in a apartment in which

we have to share expenses with another person

—he told her.

—Yes, but with another person, not with this one who is in a mental state.

"Deplorable, Jennie," the protests continued. "Look at her, please!" he

insisted.the South Korean, asking something that the brunette No had

issues in do. HeThe problem was where to look because Lisa was never in

the same place. Let's skip the fact that he needs immediate facial surgery,

let's skip the fact that he has a tattoo on his neck...

The brunette remembered the image that was already engraved in her retina,

a dove.A dove drawn with fine black strokes and with small lines in its side

that gave it movement.

—But... have you seen how she dresses, Jennie? My God! She has a long-

sleeved T-shirt millions of sizes bigger than her, some pants that haven't

been washed for years and some sneakers that I'm sure that I myself

donated last year —Jisoo looked at the empty space where ought be Lisa—.

AND NO FOR FROM MOVE —he added with a shout which stopped Lisa

in mid-travel again. “Besides, there aren't enough rooms in this place for us

-this fact Yeah did arrest to Jennie.

Jisoo sighed in relief, she should have thought of that a long time ago.

— How many rooms did you say were available? he asked theagent.

—Four rooms, —he answered to the chagrin of the South Korean— but

twoare occupied by Miss Manoban and... —You go to have that vacate a of the rooms -you said Jennie to the

motionless blonde.

For the third time that day, the brunette watched as Lisa twisted her head

and He stared straight ahead and then opened his mouth and stayed in that

position.for a moment. Jennie thought that again the girl was not going to

saynothing and HE arranged to go out, but, as rare times Come in, Jennie

thought evil.

"I can't do that," Lisa said in a soft but firm tone of voice.Jennie turned

around, surprised.

— That you said? —he returned to ask.

—Miss Kim, I'm sure...

“Shut up,” she said sternly to the agent. Lisa’s face frowned as she See

the other woman being mistreated again. “What did you say?” Jennie

insisted.with his question.

Lisa tilted her head, stared at her, and answered.

—There are only two rooms available, the other is my room and the other...

Well, the other one is busy, she answered while playing with her own

hands. hands.

Jennie smiled, looking at Jisoo, who in turn looked at Lisa as if the blonde

as if she were saying the worst nonsense. Jennie smiled even more, but

This time he did it with a laugh.

When silence returned, the brunette focused on the blonde's body thatwas

in front of me.

"Well, you're going to have to fix it," he said firmly. "Because Tomorrow

Jisoo, Rosé and I are moving here and we want a bedfor each one, okay?

—he asked without taking his eyes off her.

As was of be expected, all he ritual of the blonde HE did present: look,

twisting his head and opening his mouth, added to the fact that now,

nothing came out of his lips and only a shrug of the shoulders answered the brunette's question.

—YOU ARE DESPERATE —was the last thing Jisoo said before leaving

the door followed by the real estate agent.

For her part, Jennie looked once more at the other girl and followed the

steps of the rest. This day had been strange for young Jennie, very strange,

and it was timereturn to normality. However, bit I was going to to last.
