Dog House

"How cool" Jennie gushes about the music video.

Originally we were going to see the music video for the first time a week ago but the editor ended up taking an extra week to 'retouch" the video.

As the girls all sat on the couch rewatching the video I just sit there with a small smile.

The video turned out great but I did take notice of my screen time. All of my solo shots never made it in the video. The only scenes, I was in were the group dance.

I assumed this was the companies doing for my punishment, but was it also wrong of me to think such a thing?

It's one video. It's normal to not have a solo feature in it right?

It would mean more screentime for my members.

But would this be a one-time thing?

Or will I end up being cut out more often?

The girls watch the video 3 more times before they have enough with it.

"I'll make us lunch" Lisa gets up excitedly while we all turn to Jennie pleading with her not to let Lisa do this on her own.

"Ugh, Jisoo you help her" She slumps down on the couch.

"Fine" Jisoo gets up and walks to the kitchen where we hear Lisa singing to herself.

Rose busies herself with her phone and Jennie scoots closer to me and rests her head on my shoulder.

"I'm sorry, they cut you out" She whispers to me.

"Cut me out?" I ask faking a confused expression.

I don't want to draw attention to my lack of screentime and come off as spoiled or bratty.

When Jennie looks at me and raises an eyebrow signaling she doesn't buy it. I just shake my head.

Shrugging, "I had a bad day that day" Shaking my head, "The scenes I was in, weren't the best of my work".

"You're kidding" She shakes her head, "You were amazing on set" Jennie now rolls her eyes, "The company is stupid".

"No kidding" Rose agrees but still keeps her attention on her phone.

"Who are you texting?" I change the conversation.

Now call me crazy, but I've been so spooked after the meeting. I mean how did they even get such information?

I might have gone crazy and searched our whole dorm for cameras...

...

I still think there might be cameras here that are just too well hidden.

When Rose ignores my question and sends a text on her phone, me and Jennie turn to look at one another with the same facial expression.

Smiling, Jennie then scoots to the other side of the couch to peak at Rose's phone.

"Hey" Rose shouts while she holds her phone closer to her chest.

"Huhhh... It's Aiden?" Jennie starts smiling and I gasp.

Aiden doesn't even text me! His own twin sister!

When I look at Rose to see her cheeks turning red, I open my mouth wide, "You're texting Aiden!" I shout a little too loud but I was in shock.

"Who's texting Aiden?" Lisa comes back into the living room with plates of sandwiches.

I close my mouth shut and avoid eye contact and instead take a sip of water while Jennie does the same.
