Make It With You

27

Second stop, Japan.

The girls decided to just stay in one big suite since they are all ended up sleeping in the same room like what happened in the Philippines.

Do you have something for us here in Japan, unnie? Lisa asked curiously.

Monique chuckles at the question. No, not really guys. Go and enjoy Japan freely.

How about you? Jisoo asked pouting.

Hey, pouting is illegal. Monique shook her head. Don't worry about me. I have investors meetings, then I am visiting the office and checking in to my brother Joseph. Monique added.

Your brother is here? Rosé asked nervously.

I don't know yet, that's why I am visiting the office. He is supposed to be here in Japan. Why?

No... nothing. Rosé said stuttering.

Hmmm... Ok then, see you guys later! Monique said eyeing Rosé.

BP went to visit historical places in Japan like Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Historic Kyoto, Bamboo forest in Kyoto. While the girls enjoyed the views, taking photos, and eating local street foods, Monique was in the meeting with a big investors that will sponsor the Blackpink for their next upcoming projects.

After the meeting, Monique went to their office in Tokyo to have a meeting with their staff and to check her brother while the girls went to Mount Fuji cherry blossoms. The trees along the shore provide magnificent sight of Mount Fuji in the combination of the lake and cherry blossoms. Jisoo keeps sending Monique a photo to every place they are visiting.

At the end of the day, the girls decided to meet Monique in the restaurant to have dinner.

The group meets at L'OSIER. L'OSIER, you can enjoy delicious cuisine and excellent service in elegant surroundings. Their dishes are made with local products sourced from all over Japan, such as the seafood that the head chef personally selects straight from the best production areas. As they have a formidable collection of wines, it is recommended to ask the sommelier for their suggestions on what would best match your selections.

Who chooses this place? Monique asked.

Chaeng. Lisa commented.

Hmm... Monique said eyeing suspiciously Rosé. Monique was about to speak when the manager approached her.

Agassi, yeogiseo mannaseo bangabseubnida. (Miss, I am happy to see you here.)

Hatake, geunyang nae ileum-eulo buleulago haessjanh-a. (Hatake, I told you just to call me by name.) The four of them look at Monique and the Manager confuse as they listen to their conversation.

How were your wife and daughter? Monique asked.

They are good Monique, your brother Joseph making sure that Sarada is not failing her subjects. And we thank you and your family for helping us, for helping all your employees to support financially and the education for our children. The manager bowed and Monique did as well. What can we serve you and your exceptionally beautiful guests? The manager looks at Blackpink. The girls gave their orders and Monique added more teasing that she doesn't want to starve Chaeng and Jisoo.

Why the manager knows you and your brother? Jisoo asked curiously while savoring her food.

Oh, we owned this restaurant and Joseph is the one managing this. Monique explained and the girl dropped their jaws at the revelation. Nice choice Chaeng. Monique added.

Rosé choked on her food after Monique the last comment.

My brother Joseph is managing hotel chains and restaurants along with Asia and US. Monique explained.

Where is he now? Did you meet him in the office? Jennie asked.

That idiot. Monique rolled her eyes. He is in Korea right now and he told me that we will see each other on my Europe business trip together with my parents and the kids. Sorry guys, everyone is going to be there. Monique said looking at them apologetically.

Rosé choked again. Hey Chaeng, why do you keep choking? Are you ok? Lisa asked.

Ye.. yeah, I... I am ok. Don't mind me. Rosé replied stuttering.

Are you sure? Monique asked. Rosé just raised her two thumbs then smile.

It's fine unnie, that is going to be fun. Jennie stated.

What's next after Japan? Lisa asked.

Short trip to China then to Thailand. Monique said. Are you ready Lisa? Monique added smiling widely. Jisoo and Chaeng look in Lisa's direction also smiling.

Ready for what? Jennie asked confused looking at the others.

For work! Monique quickly replied.

By the way guys, why don't you fly directly to Thailand? Monique pointed at Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé. While Lisa and I will do a short trip to China then followed you guys to Thailand immediately. Monique added.

Why do you need Lisa in China? Jennie asked with raised eyebrows.

Do you speak Chinese? Monique asked back Jennie. Chaeng and Jisoo, do you speak Chinese?

No. They answered in unison. So am I. Monique said then laugh. That's why I need Lisa because she is fluent in Chinese, yes I have an interpreter with me in China but I need Lisa just to make sure. Monique said in one breath.

When you arrive in Thailand, Honey and Chaeng do not forget your "special" job that needed to be done. Monique said emphasizing the word special. They nodded for understanding.

What is that special job? Jennie asked eyeing everyone.

It's an individual activity for Jisoo and Chaeng. Monique immediately reply.

After that "special" job, Lisa and I will meet the three of you for the Harper Bazaar Thailand shoots and interview. After that, we are all going to watch Lisa do that "special" event. Monique finished giving thumbs up to everyone.

Why is everyone having "special" work to do? Jennie asked crossing her arms stressing the word special.

Hey, you will have one too after Lisa. Monique said winking at her.

Something is going on here. Jennie grunted.

Everyone laughed at her action. Lisa kiss her cheek, Rosé tapping her shoulder while Jisoo messes up her hair.

What is going on here is we need to move our asses back to the hotel. Monique said laughing. Come on now kids, move along. Monique added still laughing.
