The Kiss (Dreame version)

Lisa's POV Cold breeze of the wind. The sound of the waves. Distant sound of people chatting. Shining stars at the sky. The reflection of the moon to the endless sea. Sitting at the fine white sand. Beautiful night. My grip tightened to the beer that I'm holding, the colder blew of the wind made me shiver. I know that Jisoo and Chaeyoung are probably on hysterical for not knowing where I am, cursing themselves for letting me go. "Lisa, I've been looking for you' Jisoo said you should get back inside and not leave us like that." Chaeyoung hug me from behind, resting her chin at my shoulder. I didn't bother to look behind me, I don't want to see her worried face. "Or maybe later" she whispered, her warm breath linger on my ear. "Chae, sit beside me" I told her and she grumpily obliged. I chuckled at her childliness. "Tell me what are you thinking?" Chae asked me. Trying to look into my eyes despite of the darkness. "Nothing serious Chae" I replied smiling. "You can't lie to me. I know you so well. You're starting to hold your ears" she said smirking and I look at her amazed. Sometimes I believe that Chae knows me more than I knew myself. "I'm really starting to think that you can read my mind" I hug her from the side. She leans on my shoulder. She didn't respond but she smiles, staring at the sea. No one talks again. "If it's still about Jennie the witch, I swear. I'll beat her ass again" Chae whispered, breaking the comfortable silence and the tone of fury was evident. "No, it's not. I'm thinking how to start again. I want to start living again" I said truthfully. My bestfriends have done so much to me. Jisoo and Chae take good care of me while I lost myself. I'm done losing myself. I want to be happy again. Her eyes widened, her mouth hanged open a little. "W-wait? L-lisa? Is that true?" she sit at my lap. Cupping my face through her warm palms. I'm feeling her skin, we're both wearing a bikini. I suddenly blushed realizing the skin contact we currently share. Although it was known that Chae is the most clingy on the three of us, she still surprises me. "Yes Chae" I said confidently. "I miss you Lisa! You have know idea how much you made me happy!" And with that, she kissed my lips. A peck. I was shocked too. However, seeing her face blushing like a tomato made me laugh. I was thankful for the light from the moon. It was not awkward. "L-lisa I'm sorry!" she covered her mouth and her eyes widened. She get off from my lap and stand up, getting herself ready to run. Before she could do anything, I pulled her through her wrist and fell down. "Chae, you act like a high school kid" I said chuckling. "I'm not! I was just so happy. I got overwhelmed but I didn't mean to. I don't like the taste of your lips. It tastes like beer, makes me wanna puke." her face painted with disgust. I raised my eyebrow. She's holding back a smile. "Make you wanna puke huh" I tickled her mercilessly. Her back hit the soft sand and her laugh echoed at the shore. She was fighting but I had the advantage because I straddled her lap. I couldn't contain my laughter too because she knows where the spot that I felt 10× effect of her tickles. "Yahh, Lalisa stop! I'm o-o-out offf breaaa-ath." she said panting but I wouldn't let her go yet. "You two! You might get caught and accused for having public s*x. Chaeyoung is so loud!" Jisoo shouted from afar. Signaling us to come with her. "does Jisoo really need to shout? I swear I'll put all of this sand to stuff her mouth" Chae said blushing intensely. I laugh at it again. "Hurry!" Jisoo shouted once again. When we came to Jisoo, we're both panting. "What the hell are you guys doing? Lisa why the hell you disapper suddenly? And you, Chaeyoung you're so loud' I think people on North Korea could hear you" Jisoo scolded us and I just smiled at her. I gave her a tight hug. And now, she's confused. "Thank you Jisoo, I wanna live again" I said once again, repeating the same thought I just told Chae. "W-what? Are you our Lisa again?" Jisoo asked curiously. Her eyes became watery. I smiled, is it the alcohol that makes us emotional? "Yes" I want to live because you guys fought for me. I'm done. I want to fight for myself too. -*-*- Third Person's POV "Mom, I've been planning to study again for my Masteral Degree. I'm planning to take it in Seoul" the Daegu girl said happily but not smiling, her face is just like that. Her thoughts filled with scenarios about her career. "Sweetie, I thought we already talk about this?" her dad said to her, making a discomforting silence. The dinner looks appetizing, but the people around the table already seemed to be full by the tension that has started. The Daegu girl remain silent as her father finished talking. "Yes dad, but I can't remember anything that I agree into that." she said coldly. Her father's jaw tightened. "You don't need to study. You'll marry Suho next year. You'll just waste your money and time." Her father said sternly. The Daegu girl was unbothered. "I never liked Suho. What makes you think I'll marry him?" she said nonchalantly. There was a loud slam on the table. "Suho is the best man I ever known! He's the best for you!" her father said while gritting his teeth. "Marry him then." The Daegu girl said. If there's no tension at the moment, her sibling Yeri would laugh so hard. But it was Yeri, so a small low sound of laugh escaped her lips. Her father glared at her. Her father was red from anger. "Sweetie, let's talk about this some other time okay." her mother said to her. Trying to ease the tension. "No mom, I've been telling you this for months you always tell me some other time, I'm getting tired." Irene said holding a stern decision. "You're going nowhere Irene. Marrying Suho is the best thing you can do for this family. Whether you like it or not, it's going to happen!" Her father stand up. Pointing intensely at Irene's face. "I'm telling you this not because I'm asking for your permission. It's a goodbye. I'm on right age to decide for myself. No one is going to tell me what to do. Mostly, who to marry! You can't control me. If you badly want Suho to be part of this family, go to his house, call a priest and marry him right now. Kiss him f*****g torridly!" Irene lost her temper. Everyone was looking at her with their eyes wide open and mouth agaped. Her father was furious, he couldn't help but to slap her oldest daughter to her right cheek. Leaving a red swollen mark. "Dad! You're hurting her!" Yeri shouted. Irene stood still, a cold smile slip on her lips. Her mom was trembling at the sight of his husband holding her daughter's small arms. "You're so good at this aren't you? Acting all superior to try hiding all of your failed decisions in life." Irene knew that surely hit a nerve. Her father was about to slap her again but she turned her back and proceeded to her room, where she slammed the door loudly. That s**t hurts she thought to herself. "Irene open up!" Her mother shout from the other side of the door. "Unnie" Yeri begged. Hearing their voices, her body automatically stood up and open the door. Her mother cries as she saw the swollen part of Irene's cheek. They both get inside. "Unnie" Yeri said sadly. "I'm fine" Irene said. No one believes her. Her mother went outside to get some ice. "You were so brave. I want to be like you" Yeri hugged her sister. "You'll be like me as long as you stand firm for your dreams." Yeri hugged her too. "Irene, your face is swollen" Her mom came back. "I know mom" she smiled reassuringly. "Is is true? That what you said was a goodbye?" Her mother's eyes were pleading. "Yes mom. I have much dreams to fulfill." she looked away. Yeri hugged her tighter. "I'll support you then" she said as she damp the ice on her daughter's face. "Me too unnie, I'll support you" "Thank you mom" Irene said hugging the both of them. "I'll be leaving tomorrow night. I already plan this long time ago. I got my apartment and car there at Seoul." Irene declared. "That soon?" Both of them said at the same time. Irene softly smile, which she rarely do. "Yes. I don't want dad to know, don't tell him." "ofcourse sweetie, I'll only let him know once you called us that you're already in Seoul." her mother told her hugging her tightly. "Are we going with you to the airport?" Yeri asked her. "I don't think that's a good idea. I might cry and choose not to leave. I'd like to go alone" Irene explained. Both of the lady insist but Irene was stern to her decision. They finally gave up. "I'll call your aunt, so they'll visit you once you get there." her mother said, Irene know it's the best thing she could do for her mother to stop worrying. So she just nodded. "Sleepwell unnie" "Don't worry Irene, tomorrow this sore will be gone". her mother assured her. Irene didn't care whether it would be there or not. -*-*- She was on the airport. The last passenger to enter the airplane heading to Seoul. She gave one last look to the place, she wore an expressionless face but she was internally smiling before fully entering to the door. She was scared and happy. Finally, a freedom was ahead of hers. Clueless on what will happen next she sat and mouthed a "Goodbye Daegu." -*-*- Lisa's POV "hey Chu, I'm wondering if you and Chae could come over and cook for me." I asked nicely. I am trying to sound cute. I'm so hungry and wants an actual food. I'm getting tired eating instant food. I can't cook an edible food neither. "I'll asked Chae. You must be so hungry huh, Lalisa." Jisoo said on the other line. I pressed the elevator at 15. Good thing, I'm the only one at the inside. It's quite embarassing if there's anyone who heard me talking how hungry I am. "Chaeng! You wanna go with me? We'll cook for Lisa." Jisoo shouted, my ears hurt a little. Chaeng squealed from afar. I chuckled because of it. "We'll be there in 10 mins." Jisoo said laughing as well. "Okay, take care guys" I ended the call and went out. My unit is at the very corner of the 15th floor. I squinted my eyes when I saw luggages and few boxes at the front door of the unit beside mine. It was two months ago since someone has occupied it. I walked slowly, waiting for my new neighbor to come out. I see none. I stand at the front of the door, pressing softly the doorbell. Few seconds, there's no one opening it. I'll just offer some help. But since no one is around, I decided to enter my apartment. Few minutes had passed, Chae and Jisoo entered the apartment. I gave them a copy of my key so they can come over anytime. "Lisa, you should watch Jisoo cook so you can do it yourself!" Chaeyoung said as she hug me tightly. I stood up and included Jisoo to the hug. We squeeze her until she decided to get out. "Okay, you know I tried but it's not working for me." I said pouting. Releasing them from a hug. "Lisa' that's disgusting" Jisoo said referring to my pout and I throw her an apron. "Does someone starts to occupy the unit beside you? There are empty boxes outside." Chaeyoung said to me as we sat to the kitchen island. "Hmm yes. But I didn't seen him/her/them yet." I shrugged. "You should bought something whoever that is an welcome stuff." Jisoo suggested and I just nodded. "Yep, who knows maybe that someone is as kind as unnie Dara." Chae said smiling. "okay guys, I think I could handle that welcome stuff you know. Anyways, how are you guys doing? Are you ready for tomorrow's classes?" I changed the topic. They are always more excited than I am on whom I am going to be my neighbor. The occupant usually stays only for 6 months or less then they'll left. The best so far was Ms. Dara. She always gives us free food from her trips. "Hmm, yes after all it's our last year as college students." Chae said while she devours my yogurt. It didn't sink in on me yet. "Let's not talk about that." Jisoo said rolling her eyes. Chae and I laughed. We finished Jisoo's delicious Japchae. I burp so loud that it startled Chaeyoung. Jisoo couldn't help but to laugh, throwing her head and holding her stomach. I suddenly felt embarrassed. It was really too loud. "I think I want an ice cream." Jisoo said as she recovered from laughter. "Me too. Don't worry Lisa got us." Chae wink at me and I smiled. "I got no stock on fridge but give me a minute. I'll go down and buy some for all of us, okay" I said while getting my purse. "You want me to come with you?" Chae asked. But I simply shook my head and smiled. -*-*- The boxes that Chae was talking about was gone. Anyway, the convenient store is almost empty. I was glad since I don't have to queue for a long time. I bought an strawberry ice cream for Chae, chicken ice cream for Jisoo and three Mango sandwhich ice cream for myself. Of course I'm kidding, I bought Chu an Cookies and Cream flavor. I pulled the door and then someone bump into me. A small lady. She was looking down. Her head hit my chin but it wasn't that painful. "Am I too small for you to see me?" I joked but kept my straight face. Her face look up and she also had straight face which seems to be more real than what I've done. I suddenly shivered since she was not talking and her stare is empty, nothing but coldness. "hmm, sorry 'bout that I was just kidding" I chuckled nervously but instead of acknowledging me, she just passed by me. It left me dumbfounded. Did she hit her head that much to my chin that it left her incapable of talking? I started to walk heading back to my building but someone tap my shoulder. I turn around and saw Mr. Sungki. "Good evening Mr. Sungki!" I greeted him happily. "You look different tonight Lalisa." he noticed. It was almost 2 weeks since we came back from the beach. And I'm trying my best to be same girl before Jennie. "Thank you! I just realized some good things" I giggled. Proud of what I've been doing, my progress. "Yahh, you should smile more often. Here's for you." Mr. Sungki handled me a bag of mangoes. I get my purse and handle him my payment. "No, it's free. I'm happy to see you like this again. Just take it as a present." he showed his contagious smile. I shook my head. I know it's his business and I won't take it for free. I keep on insisting but he insisted it to be free too. "Okay!" I gave up. And then he smiled and started to walk again with his cart. I run to go after him and put the mango sandwhich on his palms. I didn't wait for him to response and run to a safe distance from giving it back to me. "Eat it while it's still cold!" I wave at Mr. Sungki and he gave me an approved sign. -*-*- I pressed the 15th floor but it opened again, a struggling lady covered with stack of boxes that she carries, appeared. "Hey, I can help you. What floor are you?" I immediately offered a help. "15th" she answered coldly. I was stunned at the coldness of her voice. "We're on the same floor. I'll get this box okay so it won't block your vision while walking." I carry the box to reveal her face and I was stunned more. Her eyes widened too but she recovered quickly. She was the small lady at the convenient store. "H-hey" I said. She was about to grab the box but she knows she can't when her hands are occupied by other boxes. "I'm on unit 1590B" she said not looking at me. "I know" I smiled at her. She looks at me like I'm some sort of stalker. I was suddenly nervous. "N-no. I'm not a stalker okay. I rent the unit beside you. The boxes outside awhile ago made it known that someone is moving in." I explained to her I might creep her out, she just nodded, still expressionless. This would be my the longest ride to the elevator. It felt like years. She's so intimidating. No one dared to enter the elevator after seeing her face, leaving only the two of us. Luckily the door opened at the 15th floor. I just walk after her. I didn't notice that she's wearing a black jeans and a black fitted top, showing some of her white skin. She basically looked like a vampire. "Here". I smiled at her. "Thank you" she said plainly, no smile, no expression. Why does I felt like I'm the one who asked the favor? I shrugged the thought on my mind. "Do you need any help?" I ask her once again. She didn't respond and locked the door. At. my. face. Woah. Anyway, let's look at the bright side. Atleast she knows how to say thank you. -*-*- I knocked on the door since I forgot my keys and Chaeyoung hugged me while keeping her eyes on the bag. "Give me that! I'll eat it all!" Chae said grabbing hers. "Careful Chae, you might swallow the spoon." Jisoo said with concern. Chae glared at her and I laugh. "I'll have sleepovers this week okay, don't bring here any b***h. I only want your smell and not any w***e's smell lingering here on your place" Chae said munching her ice cream. Jisoo looked at her, widening her eyes. I was a little shock to be honest. "You act like Lisa's girlfriend" Jisoo said. I tried to shrugged it of. Chaeyoung is just like that, especially after Jennie left me. "I am" Chae giggled and I just laugh at her. "When did I brought someone over?" I asked them curiously. "It was a joke, Lisa." Chaeyoung rolled her eyes. "Do you wanna watch movies?" I stand up, waiting for them to follow me at my room. "I wanna watch game of thrones" Jisoo said smiling. "Yea me too! I wanna try that!" Chae said as she sat beside Jisoo, leaving a space for me. I set up the television and it started playing. Jisoo and Chae are so engrossed. I myself, don't understand a single god damn thing. I still tried my best to watch with them. Jisoo, laying on my lap and on the other side. Chae used my shoulder as a pillow and hugs me. "Oh damn! Arya got some skills" Jisoo said. "Jon Snow is handsome" Chae giggled. "Yup. But he's small" I said stating the obvious. Chae glared at me. "That's okay. Tyrion is small too" I said nervously. Both of them laugh. I didn't understand why they are laughing. I just tried to save my ass from angry Chaeyoung. After watching almost four episodes, which I felll asleep occasionaly, I can say it was good! But sleeping is better. They decided to go home. Chae and Jisoo are leaving in one dorm. Their parents are bestfriends that's why. -*-*- I don't have to call for a delivery since Jisoo left some Japchae for my dinner and I just have to reheat it. I opened the television and it was Soju's commercial. Damn, I feel thirsty. I have to buy some. And then I remembered I didn't give anything yet for my new neighbor. I can't cook, neither bake, so I decided to call for delivery. I hope she likes Thai food. I just asked the delivery guy to meet me at the building's lobby since I'll be buying soju. I pressed twice to her doorbell and she opened the door. Her left eyebrow raised. Damn, this lady is always crazy mad. "Uhm hey, good evening. This is my welcome hmm i don't know what to call this. Welcome present I guess?" I chuckled nervously. I raised the paper bag at her face and smiled. She looks at me coldly. "I can't cook nor bake so I just called for delivery to make sure it's edible and clean. Hmm. Wow nice place" I said instead, roaming my eyes to her organized apartment. Then I get back my gaze to her, I notice she's sweating. She just move in by morning and her place look so good although there are still two boxes unopened. Her gazed was intense. Was this small lady born angry? She's obviously hesitating to accept my present. I lower my hands and starts to say something when I heard her stomach growling. She immediately snatched it from my hands and mouthed a "thank you" then locked the door again at my face. I chuckled, she's cute. -*-*- Morning came. My class would start at 9am. I got calls from Chae and Jisoo trying to wake me up. I texted them I'm already preparing myself. I decided to wake up extra early since I know I'm not good at finding a right parking spot and felt like using my skateboard. Our school is just 15mins walk. Sometimes I used my scooter, but most of the time it's my bike since I don't want to add more carbon footprint. I wore a black track pants and a white crop top. After putting my gears and helmet on I went outside. Luckily, its windy and not that hot. From afar, I saw my small angry neighbor panicking to insert her key at her car. She's maybe late for work. I was concerned and shouted at her. "You wanna ride with me?" I asked her smiling and she just rolled her eyes. "W-why?" What did I do this time? "Your skateboard is blocking the way." she said from inside the car emphasizing the word. That's the longest sentence she have said to me. And I immediately picked it up and laugh. Damn, she got me distracted I thought I was using my scooter. Maybe she thought I was making fun of her.
