4. Over sharing club

Lisa woke up with a heartache, yes she couldn't believe she would probably had to leave her home, it wasn't going to be that bad, at least that's what she said to herself, she didn't have lots of things, she tried to gather everything before go to school since maybe she would have to leave later on if her landlord didn't give her an extension, after arrange all her things she went to talk to the landlord.

She knocked on his door "Mr. Seok it's me, Lisa, can I talk to you for a minute?", the old man opened his door "Yeah, is something wrong?", Lisa was ashamed "I couldn't get the money to pay you today, and I'm sorry, I know you already let me stay longer and you waited for me to pay for two months already, I'm really sorry".

The man looked at her for a couple of seconds "Lisa, you know it's not me the one that asks for payment, it's just my job, and the owner Mr. Yang has been insisting to get each payment on time, I have covered you, listen I don't want you to leave, you are one of the nicest people here, come inside, let's talk, I bet you didn't had breakfast yet, take a seat", Lisa followed him and sat all sad "Kiddo what happened?", Lisa sighed "I lost my job, well I never liked it but it was good to pay for my rent and school and many other things, what should I do now?, I think I won't be able to stay at school for long, I don't have enough money to pay for the next month, actually I don't have anything left, just a couple of bills", he looked at the girl "Just eat kiddo, will solve things, I'll lend you money to pay for rent and school", Lisa looked at him "No, I'm sorry I can't accept it, I caused enough trouble", he looked at her with disapproval "Enough said, I don't have to explain anything to you, you'll pay later and that's it", she hugged the man "Thank you, what would I do without you?, I thought you were a bitchy old man".

After hear that Mr. Seok laughed out loud "Kid I am, but for some reason you are too nice and kind and I have a soft spot for you, so don't say this to other people, plus I'm tired of hearing you cry, I wish you would laugh more like right now, that's something I really like to hear, now let's eat and hurry up cause I don't want you get late to school", Lisa laughed and ate as fast as she could.

She had to hurry to go to school, she took her bus on time, then she got the newspaper that Mr. Seok gave her earlier to look for new jobs, "I guess I could be a waitress, even if I'm clumsy", after a little while she got to school and put her uniform.

The classes were good, specially the Management and Marketing one, then she had her Pâttiserie class, she baked macarons, apparently she was the only one that got them without get burnt, her morning was going good, at least she felt happy at school.

Before lunch Lisa got called to a classroom because apparently someone wanted to see her, she packed her macarons and went fast, she got inside and saw one of her professors, "Good Morning Mr. Olivier, someone told me you wanted to see me", he smiled "Yes Lisa, I have a friend that needs to talk to you", Lisa frowned a little bit, she was confused why a person like that would want to talk to her?, "They will be here in a few, please take a seat, I'll be back", Lisa nodded and was starting to get impatient.

10 minutes later, three people got inside "Lisa, this is my friend Mr. Smith and his boss, I'll leave you all alone a couple of minutes", Lisa looked at both people but she couldn't see them clearly, of course she forgot to use her contact lenses and she took her glasses out of her bag and that's when she gasped "Listen you both, I don't know what are you doing here, but I still have classes, I'm sorry about yesterday, like really sorry I'm no thinking about telling other people about you or about what happened, I'm a little bit busy today and I already have a lot to worry about to get more troubles, I promise I won't say anything, please just let this pass".

She tried to leave but Smith smiled and blocked the door "Miss Manoban, we are here just to talk, nothing more, please just take a seat or will be here for a long time", Lisa looked at her wrist watch, and sighed she went back and sat, Jennie got closer and Smith as well but only Jennie sat down.
