"Ugh! This is too tiring!" Lisa whines as she drops her head on the table. I sigh tiredly while tossing another book to the side.

It's been a week and still, we've been reading and searching for answers back at my home, laying on the floor in the living room and found nothing that could relate to The Siren's Light. I huff and comb my fingers through my hair in frustration,

"How is there nothing that could help us in any of these books?!" I tiredly ask as I grab another and began to scan through the pages. Lisa sighs and lifts her head off the book,

"I don't know but my brain is hurting." She says as she begins to massage her temples. I nod in agreement and chuckle as her stomach began to growl but she acted completely unbothered.

"And I'm guessing you're hungry too?" I ask as I stood up and began to make my way towards the kitchen. Lisa lets out a breath and rolls on her back and begins to stare at the ceiling.

"So, when humans get hungry, their stomachs makes sounds?" She asks as she turns her face to side and begins to observe what I was doing in the kitchen. I grab a pan and placed it on the stove before nodding my head,

"Yeah it does." I simply state before turning my body to face her and leaned my back against the counter,

"What do you know about us humans Lisa?" I ask. It seems that she's pretty intellectual but when it comes to the human world, she's completely clueless. From the most part, she actually does know a few things about how us humans work or the objects we surround ourselves with.

Lisa sits up and crosses her legs while shrugging her shoulders,

"Well, I don't know much but I learned a lot about the emotions you guys feel." She says as she stands up and makes her way towards the kitchen. She happily props herself on the counter across from me and begins to swing her legs.

"But how did you learn?" I asked again. She smiles and looks down at her swinging legs before looking back up, but the look in her eyes changed into something I couldn't understand.

"I met a human that was lost at sea." She says and looks back down towards her feet that had suddenly stopped swinging. She takes a deep breath and awkwardly clears her throat,

"To keep it short, I just observed him and learned what I had to learn." She abruptly ends her reason and began to swing her legs again. I furrow my eyebrows and crossed my arms as I eyed her suspiciously.

"And that's it?" I asked, not believing her. The change of emotions was as clear as Jisoos feelings for Rosé. The only difference is I'm not as oblivious as Rosé.

Lisa averts her eyes everywhere but at me and nods her head while pursing her lips together,

"Yup!" She awkwardly says as I slowly push myself off the counter and make my way in front of her, never faltering my gaze away from her fidgety figure. I stop in front of her, her knees almost touching my stomach and placed my finger under her chin to slowly lift up her head for her to meet my eyes.

"Are you sure?" I firmly ask. She gulps nervously as she forces her eyes to meet mine, but when it did, my pulse had suddenly began to race as the look in her eyes suddenly changed. Lisa gently removes my hand from her face and holds it,

"You don't believe me?" She asks in a whisper as she hops off the counter and towers over me. I gulp and try to back away but her hold in my hand tightens and suddenly my back hits the counter and she places both of her hands on the counter behind me, leaving no room for me to escape.

But did I want to escape?

I look back into her eyes and shook my head,

"I don't." I state causing the corner of her plump lips to lift into a smirk that was causing my body to feel warm and different. She leans closer to my face causing my heart to pump wildly against my chest as her intoxicating scent suddenly engulfed my senses.
