''A fucking Pharma CEO!'' Jennie burst out in surprise. She knew Leius is one of the leading Pharma companies in the world but haven't thought the CEO is a juvenile. ''What's stopping you from accepting then? Is he bad characterwise?''
''Nothing like that. I mean, Landon is a nice person but we have known each other for a very little time, Jennie,'' Yong-sun replied. Landon Derwin is a sweet person but at the same time, there is something mysterious surrounding that man which is stopping Yong-sun to take a further step. Besides, his family is influential in society, and being an illegitimate daughter, she knew there would be conspiracies in the future. But somewhere, Yong-sun wanted to try, but a little push was needed.
''Get out that blocks, Yong-sun. Go on dates first. If you feel he is good, take a further step.'' Jennie advised.
''Should I?'' Questioned Yong-sun.
''Of course. If he is not up to the mark, tell him, ciao, ciao brown cow.'' Jennie winked, taking a sip of orange juice.
''Where do you learn these funny phrases,'' Yong-sun asked with a smile. ''Your talks can lift anyone's mood.''
''By now you might have known, I am born intelligent.'' Shrugging her shoulder, Jennie sipped the last drops of orange juice with the straw, noisily sucking air at the end. She often plays this game out of boredom.
''Yes Yes. I can't disagree with that.'' Yong-sun giggled. If she disagrees with the statement Jennie will brag until Yong-sun agrees. It's better to play the safe game around her. Skipping Landon's topic, they resumed chatting, and in a while, Jennie got a text from her mom.
''I will go. It's late already. My mom is calling.''
''Alright. Stay in touch.'' Before parting, Yong-sun hugged Jennie and then walked in the other direction.
....
Jennie did not stay in the hospital for a long time. After reaching home, she got fresh, and just when she started preparing dinner for Lisa, she heard the footsteps of her babylicious.
Without going inside the bedroom, Lisa straight away walked into the kitchen and hugged Jennie from behind. ''When did you come back?'' He asked, kissing her temple.
''An hour back. I had no work in the evening. So, I went to meet mom.'' She explained the story that is happening inside her office earning a deep chuckle from Lisa.
''So, you reconciled with Yong-sun.'' He stated affirmatively. Lisa was glad Yong-sun turned out to be innocent in the end. Even if they have gone to the same school, he wouldn't have spared if she had a hand on the spy cameras.
''Yep,'' Jennie stressed the word. ''Friendships are like a walk in the park.''
''Who said that?''
''Jurassic Park.''
''You are not gonna leave than name ever?'' He asked, grabbing the knife from her hands, and started chopping the vegetables. Lisa has become an expert, not in cooking, but at least not in burning the kitchen.
''That's my favorite name.'' Jennie leaned back on Lisa's chest and gave a thought over the morning incident. ''Do you want to know how I met him?''
Lisa neither nodded nor shook his head, and Jennie took that as a positive sign and started.
''Irene, I and Rosé used to visit lots of places every weekend during our university days. Once a local voluntary runaway fashion event was organized to highlight animal rights. Interested has to get dressed in full-body animal costumes and walk through the runaway. To support, we three of us also participated in the event. I picked a zebra outfit, Rosé was dressed as a frog, while Irene was a cow. To make the event more interesting, we were to walk as a couple. I got a rabbit partner.'' Jennie's thoughts recollected the day as she began explaining to Lisa.
