ROSE.

It's Monday. The time has come for me to spend a good first day in Sydney University and I couldn't even sleep last night from the excitement and nervousness that I was feeling.

I never changed school before, so this will be a huge adjustment phase for me, but since Jennie keeps reassuring me that she will try her best to be with me throughout the first day then I couldn't afford to worry anymore.

Well of course, I texted her first thing in the morning, beaming my enthusiasm through my message. So much for being whipped. I thought.

Rosé (7:01 AM): Good morning, gorgeous! I'm so excited to go to school knowing that you'll be my tour guide again! see you.

After sending, I quickly grabbed my towel, went to the washroom and showered myself. I kept singing Paris in the Rain on repeat since the time Jennie sang that song to me as a confession of her feelings, the value of the song is priceless now.

I didn't know a song could mean so much to me until now. Until Jennie sang that lovingly under the mystic ambiance of the moonlight. It was breathtaking.

After I've showered, I got dressed with Galles Blu Pants paired with a comfy blue cropped top hoodie and finishing it with my favorite basic white nike sneakers. I grabbed my bag and laced my ID around my neck, grinning proudly in the mirror before rushing downstairs just to smell the bitter aroma of the brewing coffee mixed with the smoke of bacon and eggs.

I surprised myself when I saw Alice was the one cooking breakfast.

"Yah, I can't believe my eyes." I greeted her with an astonished tone. My sister never wakes up early, specifically, she never wakes up early just to cook breakfast.

"Oh, shut up. Can you just drink your coffee while I finish this (?)" She prompted with a crunched face, obviously annoyed with my comment. Alice's hair was tied up in a bun while her left hand was on her waist while the other was busy holding a silver spatula as she cooks my favorite morning meal-bacon and egg.

"Why are being like this all of a sudden?" I asked, still wanting to find out what kind of dark magic she was in. Because really, she's never a morning person. Never.

"Yah, listen." She pointed the greased spatula straight at me paired with an annoying stare. I flinched at her action. "If you think I did this because I realized that I've never been a good sister to you for the longest time, then you're wrong. Mom worded me out of this. Besides, this will be your last first day of school, so this means I couldn't do this again." She brazenly revealed.

I shrugged off her defensiveness. "Yeah. I love you too." I replied with a soft smile, appreciating the hard sacrifice she's making for me, even though she wouldn't admit it.

"Now, don't you go soft on me young lady. You know, I cringe too easily." I saw her blushed expression and I exhaled a soft laugh as I sipped my morning coffee to awaken my senses. I love how Alice goes uncomfortable when I say soft words to her.

After finishing my breakfast for five minutes, a text notification suddenly popped up. I grabbed my phone and swiped it up.

Jennie (7:34 AM): Morning babe! I'm all ready. I'm at your door right now.

Woah, she's fast. I thought as my eyes flickered at the screen and my mouth munching and swallowing the eggs as fast as I can before I quickly grabbed my bag, waved my sister goodbye, and went to the door just to find Jennie already flashing her gummy smile. "Good morning!"

I silently took notice of Jennie's first day of school fashion, because you know how meticulous she is when it comes to her style. That's why she never fails to look alluring everytime I see her.

She was wearing a black intarsia check knit dress paired with white sheered vans. She looked so luxurious yet still giving that laid-back aura.

"Well look at you! I didn't know a person could be hotter than the morning." I said with a cheeky expression. Everytime I see her is like the first time, which means the amount of sweat my armpits are making is totally unfathomable. "Oh, shut up. You just want me to kiss you." She playfully hit my shoulder as she got embarrassed.
"Am I getting one?" I continued to push her with one eyebrow raised, taunting her to do it.

She scanned the area to assure that no one was looking and she hastily dragged me closer to her with her hands on my waist. I flinched so hard as I felt her hot breath lingering before my lips, I can even smell her natural scent, it's all alluring to my senses. I trembled at her touch as her hands slowly traveled around my nape. I closed my eyes trying to ready myself for what's about to happen...

But i've been closing my eyes for too long and I didn't even feel her move an inch so I opened my eyes with confusion and met hers, "Oh, babe, you think I'm that easy?" she huskily whispered with a conceited tone, as she distanced herself, removing her hands from my waist as she triumphantly chuckled at my disappointed reaction, and I never felt so betrayed in my life. Damn, Jennie knows how to play. I cursed.

"You think keeping me heated up in a moment like that is funny?" I complained with both hands placed on my waist. She excessively nodded as she continued to laugh. "If you keep playing dirty like that then I can't keep my hands off of you any longer." I warned trying to approach her in a seductive way as I stepped closer to her. Automatically she rested her hands around my neck as I circled mine on her waist. We were close again.

"Really? I should do this more often then." She said with a teasing smirk. "Yeah, you really enjoy watching me suffer." I rolled my eyes in complaint. She chuckled at my face, "Why are so freaking cute in the
