Keep Holding On (Complete)

Chapter 27

Jisoo saw that Rosé was finally awake. She excitedly stood up from her seat and held Rosé's hand. "Rosé, can you hear me? Rosé nod your head if you can hear me," Jisoo told her. Rosé just looked at her emotionless and closed her eyes again. "Rosé?" Jisoo called again Rosé who went back to sleep.

Jennie prepared a tea and brought it to Lisa who slept on the couch.

"Good thing you're awake," Jennie said when she saw Lisa sat on the couch. "You're too drunk to drive last night that's why I didn't wake you up when you fell asleep," she said while putting the cup of tea in the table.

"I'm sorry, I disturb you. Don't worry, I'm leaving," Lisa apologetically said. "Wait, drink the tea first to remove your hangover before you drive," Jennie sincerely said and Lisa took a sip.

"It's good," Lisa commented. "I used to prepare that to Kai before," Jennie sadly said. Lisa then stood up and went to look at the pictures of Jennie and Kai in the picture frame.

"We're the same. I still can't throw my photos with Rosé," Lisa stated. "Kai and I were married for years so it's not that easy to throw these pictures away. Not all the memories he left were bad. We were happy too," Jennie replied.

"Yeah, same for us. I really don't get it why it's so easy for Rosé to betray me and to give up on her marriage like that. And you, I know you're thinking the same thing with your husband," Lisa told Jennie.

"I really did think that Kai loved another woman. But it doesn't mean that he doesn't love me anymore," Jennie responded smiling at Lisa. "Yeah, they did love us. Just not enough to remain faithful to us," Lisa bitterly said. "But it's still love right?" Jennie replied. "Is it? Or it's just a lie which we choose to tell ourselves," Lisa answered.

"It seems you're frequently playing golf," Lisa's mom commented when she saw her husband getting ready. "No, I'm going to my friend. Maybe I can invest in his solar energy business," Lisa's dad answered. "I saw your ring in the bathroom. I know that if you're not wearing it, you're seeing your other family. You know, it's better to tell the truth. Because it hurts more when you lied to my face," Lisa's mom confronted.

"You know, I need to get going. Thanks for the tea. Thanks for taking care of me. I appreciate it. And thanks for lending an ear," Lisa sincerely told Jennie. "I'll see you tomorrow? That is if you still want to be our supplier?" Lisa added.

"Do you want to get me as your supplier again?" Jennie excitedly asked. "Hopefully. Well, if you want. I would understand if you won't. I acted like a total jerk and you didn't deserve to be treated that way. I'm really sorry if I over stepped..." Lisa explained which Jennie cut off.

"Oh no, no, no. I already forget about it. I'll see you tomorrow," Jennie gladly said. "Sure?" Lisa asked. Jennie nodded in response. "Thanks," Lisa said smiling at her. "Thanks also," Jennie replied smiling at Lisa too.

"Where are you? Come to the hospital ASAP" was the text that Lisa received from Jisoo. Jennie's mom arrived and saw that Lisa came out in their house.

"Jennie! Why did you let Lisa sleep here?!" "Mom, she was so drunk last night," Jennie reasoned out. "Drunk? What are you? A hostess that when someone is drunk you will entertain immediately?" Jennie's mom mockingly asked. "You're calling me a hostess right away? Can't I be a good person mom? You know what she's going through. She really needs someone to talk to," Jennie defensively said. "Yes, she needs someone to talk. But why does it have to be you? Remember, last time she talked badly about you," Jennie's mom argued. "She already apologized mom. And she gets me again as supplier in her resto," Jennie proudly said.

"You're really stupid. She apologized to you and now she's getting you as her supplier. Jennie, you're done with the bad experience in your life and now you're entering another one? No, quit it," Jennie's mom asserted. "But mom," Jennie disagreed. "My daughter, don't you see it? She'll just use you to take revenge on her wife. Believe me," Jennie's mom insisted. "Mom, Lisa is not like that," Jennie argued. "Oh really? She's not like that? Why? How come you know? Are you close with her now? You're really crazy. People will be talking behind your back and that Lisa will say people are talking about us so it will be the end. Jennie, you'll be the loser at the end," Jennie's mom sighed.
