L I S A (working title)


// L I S A //

I woke up by the beam of sunshine coming from my opened window making me rub my eyes. I took a glance at the clock and it was 6:34. I remembered the mission we were supposed to do which the girls and I aren't really excited about. Unlike the other missions we had in the past which were all really cool, this one would need extra effort for we will be acting like the complete opposite of us (making it totally hard).

I turned my head to my right to see Rosé unnie still sleeping. I tiptoed my way to the bathroom and started taking a bath. I twisted the tap to the left to make the water a bit warmer. I closed my eyes as I felt water flowing down my body. I started adding shampoo in my hair then scrubbed the soap all over. I washed myself for the last time and then took the towel that was hung behind the curtains. I haven't thought of a name that I can call myself — fake name to be specific.

The students shouldn't know our real names. If they’ll do, then we'd be in big trouble. I wrapped the pink towel around my small body and proceeded in blow-drying my newly dyed hair. I had lighter blonde the last time but now, I chose a darker kind of blonde.

I went to my wardrobe and looked for an outfit to wear. Gosh, I can't choose any of my favorite styles. After a few minutes of dragging off and returning several stuff in my closet, I placed on a pair of black ripped shorts, a white hoodie and my Gucci shoes. I have lost most of my shoes and found it all inside Jennie unnie's shoe rack. I placed on my glasses (I picked my round, gold-rimmed glasses to match my mood today) and took a glance at myself in the mirror.

I was deciding if my hair will stay straight or should I curl it a bit when a sudden pair of hands started taking all my hair and I looked at the mirror to see who it was. Revealing a smiling unnie was all I saw making me smile too.

"You always straighten your hair or curl it. You need a new hairstyle Miss Manoban," she muttered as she took a ponytail and left some baby hair on the sides of my face with my bangs of course. She did a high one and then curled it a bit to make it look like it's messy.

"Tadaa!" she exclaimed as she shakes her hands like I was some kind of a presentation or something. I laughed at her cuteness and took a glance at myself in the mirror.

"You look beautiful, Lisa." She patted my shoulder making me look down.

"Look at my shy, Lali." She paused so that she can pinch my cheeks like I was still a baby. "You're so cuteee!" She muttered as she then ruffled my hair making me pout.

"Unnie, it's 7:03 already. Why won't you grab your butt and head to the bathroom. You don--" Before I knew she was listening, I found her rushing to the bathroom with her towel hung on her shoulder already.

"What an idiot!" I muttered in English.

"I heard that!" Rosé unnie yelled from inside the bathroom making me laugh at her silliness. Rosé unnie can hear well, not the normal hearing but she can hear more than the mundane. While my Jennie unnie can sense that things will happen. She can predict something and it would end up happening. Jisoo unnie has eyes like a hawk. She can see the littlest details when it comes to things or what. I am the quickest one. I have fast reflexes and I can hide almost everywhere I want. I'm pretty good in everything — well that's what my unnies and my manager said but all I know is that I'm just a shooter, a fighter that's acting like a strange, mysterious girl in a school that I'll be attending soon.

I headed downstairs following the smell of bacon coming from the kitchen. I closed my eyes just to be greeted by a surprise. "Boo!" A familiar voice yelled from behind me.

"Ahhhh!" I jumped in surprise and ended up falling on the floor with my heartbeat raising. All I heard were laughs and stuff. I looked up to see Jisoo unnie laughing her ass out.

"Yah! It ain't funny!" I exclaimed in English receiving a louder laugh from her.

"You should've seen your face, Lalice," she claimed between laughs.

"At least I can speak in English not like you who make me cringe whenever you speak the language." I muttered in a low voice so she won't kill me but the future made it otherwise.

"Yah! I heard that!" She then stopped laughing and started shooting glares at me, telling me that I still have five seconds to get away from her before she attacks.

I was about to run but a voice came calling from the kitchen. "Gurllllsss breakkfassstttt isss reeaaddyyyy!" Jennie unnie's voice was loud and clear but Jisoo unnie attacked making me run afterwards. We ended up running around the kitchen with a Jisoo unnie chasing me.

"Will you please stop acting like cats and dogs and be mature." Jennie unnie rolled her eyes as she crossed her arms at us, sending glares at me and unnie.

"Goodmo--" Rosé unnie's voice was heard by the door but she was cut off by... I don't know...

"Bacoooonnn!!!!!!" She then shrieked like there was no tomorrow (though as far as I remember, we also had bacon for breakfast yesterday and the day before and a couple of days ago…), running towards her seat making me and Jisoo unnie sit, too.

We all settled down in the dining area eating the breakfast Jennie unnie made whilst chitchatting about what we'd do later at school.

"So what do you want to be like in school? It should be far from your style at least.” Jennie unnie was all business now…
