The Devil's Sweetheart

44

Right when Jennie and Lisa reached home, she kicked him out of her room when he started following her like a lost puppy. What's wrong with him today?

Jennie cautiously put the box in a safe, delighted that she earned the treasure. It was already ten in the evening by the time they arrived home and getting fresh, she went down to have her dinner not before accomplishing a mission which she has been thinking from the morning. Feeling heavy with all the food she dumped into her stomach, she went into the garden for a small walk.

Strolling for a while, Jennie played with the little puppy that was newly brought into the house today. The cute one's antics reminded of Carrot. I have to call that idiot, she has completely forgotten about her mommy.

Bidding goodbye to the little pup, Jennie turned around to leave but stopped when her eyes shifted on to the girl moving towards her. Since yesterday's incident, Jennie didn't talk to her.

"She must have suffered a lot for the past four days with the scums vitriol," Jennie whispered in a low voice.

"Are you ok?" Jennie inquired sitting on a nearby bench.

"I am good! Thanks, Jennie." Yong-sun started. For three days, she was sleep-deprived, and only when Trent was taken away by the cops, Yong-sun got relieved from the stress.

"For deleting the video?" Jennie solicited with a smile.

"Yes! But that's not the only thing. While everyone suspected I was the criminal, you believed in me even after we have known for a short while." Yong-sun was alarmed when Jennie asked her if she was framed directly. Even Austin didn't speculate her when they have been knowing each other for a long time.

"You can tell it's women's instincts. I know you live with morals and that's all it brought me to believe you might not be the fugitive. I don't come to verdicts until I see it with my own eyes." Jennie meant it. She would never jump to conclusions until she hears from the person or she sees it with her own eyes.

"Thank you! Friends?" With a hefty smile, Yong-sun handed a banana smoothie to her. "I made it by myself."

"You have successfully lured me with a banana smoothie. Then I accept your friend request." She smiled grabbing the glass. After a little chit chat with Yong-sun, they entered the house cheerfully clearing their misunderstanding.

...

Waiting for Jennie to come out of the bathroom is worse than waiting for the best plastic surgeon in Beverly hills. Lisa was not understanding what sort of skincare products she was scrubbing onto her body for two hours and that's the reason, he has been taking shower before dawn. Once she wakes up and goes into the bathroom, the end of the story.

Even after banging the door for the umpteenth time, Jennie did not acknowledge him. With frustration, he walked out of the room and appeared back after two hours. To his relief, she was back from her shower battle.

Getting fresh, he scanned Jennie's room, but she was still not back after her dinner. To drag her back, Lisa was about to depart when his eyes unconsciously scooted to a gift wrap that he has spotted near his bed.

When Lisa glanced at the gift box which had no return address on it, he warily opened it. Surprise, followed by astonishment when he saw a wristwatch sitting on the box. It looks similar. Was it bought by Jennie on the day when we went shopping? was it for me!!

Lisa wordlessly stared at the watch with an ambivalent expression on his face. He froze, running a hand through his hair unable to control his alacrity.

Strolling in the room back and forth, he thought of the possible reasons. Why did she give me? What if it was a mistake? That idiot would use it for her benefit if I ask more. But still, he wanted to confirm if it was for him.
