Seulgi paced back and forth in the living room, her mind racing. She had tried calling Jackson multiple times, but each attempt went straight to voicemail. Frustration and worry gnawed at her. She needed to talk to someone who could help. Without another moment's hesitation, she dialed Jisoo's number.

After a few rings, Jisoo answered, her voice cheerful. "Hey, Seulgi! What's up?"

"Jisoo, can I ask you something?" Seulgi said, trying to keep her voice steady. "Do you know someone named V?" she asked impatiently.

Jisoo was surprised by the name but managed to reply, "Yeah! Did Jennie introduce him to you?"

Seulgi felt a wash of relief at hearing Jisoo's confirmation. "It's a long story," Seulgi sighed. "Can you come over? I think it's better if we talk in person."

"Of course, I'll be there as soon as I can," Jisoo replied, already grabbing her keys.

Within minutes, Jisoo arrived at Seulgi's house. She was greeted by Seulgi, whose expression was a mix of frustration and worry. They quickly sat down on the couch, and Seulgi began to recount the events of the day.

"We saw Jennie and V at the ice cream parlor," Seulgi explained, her voice trembling. "They seemed too close, and we accused Jennie of cheating on Lisa. Before anyone could explain, Jackson just... punched V."

Jisoo's eyes widened in shock. "That's insane! V would never do something like that. He's our friend."

"We didn't know," Seulgi said, her voice tinged with desperation. "I tried to tell Jackson it was a misunderstanding, but he wouldn’t listen. He stormed off, saying he was going to tell Lisa."

Jisoo took a deep breath, her expression hardening with determination. "We need to clear this up before things get any worse. Jackson needs to understand the truth. I'll talk to him."

With that, Jisoo stood up, ready to face the impending confrontation and make things right.

Jisoo arrived at Jackson's place, her mind racing with what she was going to say. She knocked on the door with a sense of urgency, hoping Jackson would be willing to listen this time.

Jackson opened the door, his face still etched with the remnants of anger and confusion. "Jisoo? What are you doing here?"

"We need to talk," Jisoo said firmly, pushing past him into the living room.

"What's going on?" Jackson asked, already sensing the gravity of the situation.

"I just got off the phone with Seulgi. She told me what happened with V," Jisoo began, her voice steady but laced with anger. "Jackson, you punched V based on a wild assumption. V is our friend. He's been a part of our lives for years."

Jackson looked down, the weight of his actions starting to hit him. "I thought he was... I mean, Jennie and him looked..."

"You didn't give them a chance to explain," Jisoo interrupted. "You jumped to conclusions and let your emotions take over. V would never do anything to hurt us."

Jackson ran a hand through his hair, frustration evident on his face. "I messed up, didn’t I?"

"Yes, you did," Jisoo replied bluntly. "But now you need to fix it. Apologize to V and Jennie. Make things right. This misunderstanding can’t continue."

Jackson nodded slowly, realizing the extent of his mistake.

Jisoo placed a hand on his shoulder, her expression softening. "Let's sort this out together."

As Jackson and Jisoo prepared to face the consequences of Jackson's actions, Jisoo felt a renewed sense of determination. They would fix this, and their friendships would emerge stronger from the ordeal.
