It's Over, and So Are We

Five

"Kim Jisoo I seriously can't believe you..." Jennie sounds exhausted.

"Don't be like that, Jenduk-ah! Come on, let's go back to the first store we went."

This is something that actually rarely happens. Jisoo who drags Jennie around the shopping mall to get something. They have been circling this place for one hour. Got inside and out some clothing store, watch store, even a sport store. Jisoo just now asked Jennie to go back to the clothing store.

"What I know is that you have a shopping phobia, and yet you have so much energy today. Also, I'm surprised that you can be this picky when you got yourself a boyfriend." She complains.

Jisoo laughs. "This is our first valentine together, so I should give him something special."

"And why do I have to help you to choose again?"

"Because I trust you!" She grabs Jennie's hand. "And because you and him both like the colour black. You have good taste too."

"It actually sounds like you took me for granted but nevermind. I'll take it as compliment. Look, we're here again."

They stop at the cap section. Jisoo is actually interested in buying Haein one since the very first time they arrived here, but she hesitated.

"Listen, Eonnie. Guys are very simple. You can just buy anything and they will be happy. Especially it seems like he is head over heels for you. Just pick one, already."

"They all look good... but they also look the same to me it's confusing..." Jisoo picks one of the caps on the shelf, then puts it back.

"What about this one? Isn't this your thing? From the drama, I mean." Jennie grabs a cap from the shelf behind her then gives it to Jisoo.

Jisoo's eyes widened. This cap has simple design yet it looks elegant with the small dove logo in the front. It has Haein's favorite colour too and Jisoo can already imagine how good he will look with this cap on.

"How did we miss this before? Jendeuk-ah it's perfect. Thank you!"

Jennie smirks. "You owe me one, Eonnie."

A slow pop song, like Teddy says, is a brave choice for her solo debut. It's not like any other Blackpink music, but it surely is Jisoo's kind of music. The one that match her vocal. Once again she's being out of the box and lucky for Jisoo, everyone support her decision to choose this song.

"Waiting for My Love." Jisoo says shyly on her phone call with Haein that night.

"Just hearing the tittle already gives me chills."

She laughs with weak voice. "It feels a bit personal, actually. I feel like Teddy Oppa can read my mind when he shared the lyrics to me. The song is like our love story."

"Full of waiting?"

"Right." Jisoo sighs heavily. "Last time it was me. Now you have to go all the way to Busan."

"One month, Love. I'll be back before you know it."

It won't be that easy to wait. Jisoo has no idea that there will come a day like this in her life. Her days ahead will be full of longing. It will be hard not being able to be near Haein even if it's just for a while. She gets too attached to his presence and yet she doesn't mind at all.

"Tomorrow, you don't have to come if you can't make it. I'll be fine." Says Haein again.

"I don't want to!" Jisoo quickly reacts. "You'll be gone for a month. I should send you off, at least."
