Lisa searched for the spare clothes she hadn't used, which she had lent to Jennie. Her eyes repeatedly darted towards Jennie as her hand scoured the room for the clothes.

Meanwhile, Jennie sat quietly on the bed, wrapped in a towel, her gaze fixated on her phone that had begun ringing.

Lisa diverted her attention, not wanting to intrude on Jennie's privacy, and resumed her search.

Finally, Lisa found a shirt and walked over to Jennie, offering it to her. "Here. I haven't used it yet."

Jennie thanked her and accepted the shirt. Lisa couldn't help but notice that Jennie's phone continued to ring, displaying Bobby's name.

"Why aren't you answering the call? Maybe it's important," Lisa suggested, stealing a glance at the phone.

Jennie hesitated, avoiding eye contact. "Can I?"

Just as they pondered the call, the doorbell rang, interrupting their conversation..

"I think it's Seulgi. I'll check it first," Lisa suggested.

She quickly descended the stairs and opened the door, finding Seulgi outside, struggling with a bunch of paper bags.

"Why did you take so long?" Lisa complained.

Seulgi shot back, "Shut up, pussy! Why don't you just help me instead of complaining? Get out of the way!" She shoved Lisa aside, determined to enter the house.

As Seulgi fought with the bags, an apple fell to the floor. She tried to catch it, but in the process, everything she was holding slipped from her grasp. "Damn it!" Seulgi cursed in frustration.

Lisa burst into laughter at the sight of Seulgi's predicament.

"Seriously? You're just going to laugh at me instead of helping?" Seulgi grumbled, clearly annoyed.

Lisa, still chuckling, couldn't resist teasing. "Chill, bro. Why do you look so worn out? Are you on your period?"

Seulgi's irritation flared. "Do you think it's easy to go to the grocery store? You didn't even give me a list. I looked stupid there!" She scolded Lisa angrily. "I had no idea what to do or what to buy first. This is my first time doing this, Lisa. But, thankfully, 'Irene' helped me."

As Seulgi mentioned Irene's name, her voice softened, and a faint blush touched her cheeks.

Lisa, now understanding, secretly laughed and helped Seulgi bring the groceries inside.

Eventually, Seulgi had to leave for an important committee meeting, so she bid her goodbyes.

After Jennie had finished talking to Bobby, she went downstairs and was greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly cooked food. She followed the scent to the kitchen and was pleasantly surprised to find Lisa there.

Lisa was cooking, humming a tune, and flipping meat in a pan. She hadn't noticed Jennie's presence and was using a spoon as her makeshift microphone.

🎵 Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way through the crowd...

Jennie stood there, smiling, watching Lisa sway and sing with all her heart. Her hair was half pulled back, and the other half cascaded over her shoulder. Lisa's aura was sweet and lively, a side of her that Jennie hadn't often seen. Seizing the opportunity, Jennie playfully snatched the spoon from Lisa.

🎵 And I need you...

Jennie sang and smirked at Lisa, who was momentarily surprised but quickly pulled her close. "Since when?"
