PART 12

"I have something funny to show you." Jisoo tells me as we stop by my locker to pick up a few things.

Rolling my eyes, I give her the thumbs up as a go as she excitingly grabs something from inside her bag and lifts it to my face. When I close my locker and stare at the card in her hand, I'm suddenly very confused.

"Is that an Apologies Card?" I ask, furrowing my eyebrows as I continue to stare at it.

She nods furiously at me and sticks her tongue out. "Correct you are Lis."

I sigh and rub my forehead. "Why is it funny?" I ask, thinking deeply because this is somewhat irritating me.

Jisoo smirks and clucks her tongue as she replies to me, "It's from Jennie."

My brown eyes widen as I cover my mouth to stifle the laughter that's about to come out of my lips. I avert my eyes to the card then back to Jisoo before going back to the card again, trying to think of something to say. She didn't seriously...

"She so seriously did." Jisoo huffs, somehow reading my mind as she stuffs the card back in her bag. "Can't believe she thinks that by giving me a card it's going to solve everything."

Laughing, I close my locker, lock it and we continue our way down the corridors towards our next class together when I'm being halted by a cheerio—a cheerio who I have never seen before in SM High.

She must be new.

"Lisa Manoban?" she says, almost asking for my recognition if she got my name right.

Both Jisoo and I turn to face each other and look back at her, frowning. Why would she want to talk to me?

Slowly, I nod my head. "Yeah, that's me." I stuttered, tucking a lose strand of black hair behind my ear. Jisoo snickers beside me and elbows my ribs—causing me to hiss a bit.

It's a good thing this new girl didn't hear me.

"Awesome." She perks, smirking smugly at me as I see people narrowing their eyes on us as they pass by, wondering why a cheerio would be talking to the likes of me.

"I'm Hirai Momo, a junior transfer student." She introduces herself, extending a hand out to me as I stare at it shyly. No one's ever introduced themselves to me before I do, it's usually supposed to be me doing the work. It's actually pretty soothing to know at least one person wants to be my friend now.

Smiling widely at her sweetness, I quickly grab her hand and shake it, earning a giggle from Momo. "Lis—I mean—" I stop from saying my name, since she already knew it. Wow, someone knows my name!

"Nice to meet you." I end up saying, biting my lower lip as we let go but I felt her lingering a bit.

Momo crosses her arms together and we continue staring at each other's eyes, and it makes me tilt my head to the side because I may be a bit jealous of her eyes—are they nicer than mine? They can't be.

"Ahem." Jisoo coughs out, making me turn my attention to her as she side-winks at me and chuckles. I frown at her because I don't get what she's trying to say to me.

She rolls her eyes and nudges my ribs again before leaning in to my ear as we subtly watch Momo saying a brief hello to one of her cheerio friends.

"She's hot." She whispers, chuckling some more and if it were anyone else you'd think Jisoo is a grade school horn-dog.

"Okay, so?" I reply, shyly waving at Momo as she turns her brown orbs back to us, grinning from ear to ear. "What do—" I'm interrupted by an intense push from the back as I holler forward and save myself from tripping over, it's a good thing Jisoo's a ninja.
