Make It With You

39

Monique choked on her coffee when Iu showed up in front of her.

You! She said pointing at Iu while coughing.

You're gross. Mina commented while tapping her in her back.

Hanashiai ga hitsuyōdesu. (We need to talk.) Monique said pulling Iu's hand and start running to her room.

Everyone look at them in a confused state, too late for them to react, and just watched the two running til they are gone from their sight.

Huh, that was fast. Irene commented.

It's weird. Jennie said.

What do you think is happening? Lisa asked curiously.

Do you think Iu can full it off? Rosé added.

I think this is a bad idea. Jisoo stated.

It was your idea. We can't stop now. Besides, Monique probably broke up with her. Mina joked.

Do you want to go for a swim?

You said you wanted to talk? I don't have clothes, so no.

Yes, I wanted to talk while swimming. Monique deadpan. I have a lot of clothes so no worries. I'll wait for you on the veranda. Monique added.

Monique suddenly feels pain in her head. She saw groups of friends having fun on the veranda but its blur and she can't tell who are those people.

Hey, are you ok? Iu asked appearing beside her.

I just remember something but it's hard to tell, it's all blurred. Monique explain.

It will come along soon. Don't rush it. Let's talk and swim. Iu said then dive into the pool.

Iu,-

But before Monique can continue, Iu interrupted her. Hear me first, after that we talk. Iu said seriously.

Iu started telling Monique what they explained to her. Monique was in disbelief hearing everything.

You're telling me that my girlfriend is Jisoo? Monique asked.

Yes. That is correct. Iu confirmed.

And you are pretending to be my fake girlfriend until my memory comes back? Did they ask you to pretend? Monique asked again.

Yes, I will be your fake girlfriend for a while. They do not ask me to pretend. I don't know how can I explain this. Iu said trying to find the exact word. Jisoo loves you, no question about that. But in this current situation, she wanted you to remember her on your own accord not because she told you or we told you. She doesn't want to force you to remember her. If I was in her position, I will do that too. Iu explained and reassured her.

Do you get what I am trying to say? Iu asked her.

Yes, I kinda do. I just don't know how I feel knowing that they did that to me and to you too. Monique said confused.

You can do anything for love. Iu joked then chuckled. Don't hate them or get mad at them, we are all trying to help you. Maybe this is their best solution to help you.

Why did you agree to it?

Because you're my friend. A good one. I wanted to help you too. Iu smiled at her.

Why did you reveal their plan?

As I said, you're a good friend. Iu smiled again. So, are you going to break up with me or we continue pretending that we are girlfriends? Iu asked her.
