Lisa
Everyone seemed to be lost in their own thoughts on the car ride over, barely speaking with hardened expressions as if they were each analysing and predicting how this was all going to play out.
How is Richard going to react? Will he try to confront Dara? Will he kick her out of the house? Or worst of all... will he deny it and defend Dara?
"I'll get my flight changed so I can stay until we get this shit squared away." Marcus offered as they pulled through the gates.
"I appreciate it man." Lisa responded.
The group filed into the house and Lisa sent Marcus with Jennie so she could go straight to Jennie's medicine cabinet to survey the contents and make sure nothing had been moved or tampered with. Knowing that Dara had motive to hurt Jennie lit a fire within Lisa and she had to see with her own eyes that Jennie's medications were exactly as she'd left them.
Fuck it. I'll get a fresh supply from the pharmacy once we leave tonight. Not worth the risk. I don't want her touching these meds that have been sitting here in the house. Dara has full access to it and God knows what other tricks Jiyong and Seungri will have up their sleeves.
Lisa was lost in her thoughts, trying to figure out the logistics of Jennie's medications when the worst sound in the world slammed into her ears. Jennie let out the most gut wrenching, blood curdling scream and it stole the air from Lisa's lungs.
"Lisa!" Jennie screamed as if her soul was being ripped from her body.
Lisa's feet couldn't move fast enough as she ran toward Jennie's anguished screams into Richard's study. Marcus was with Jennie just now. There's no way he would have let anything happen to her. "Get in here Doc." Marcus' deep voice boomed from within the room. All of Lisa's frantic forward motion instantly stalled as her eyes adjusted to the scene in the study.
Oh my fucking God...
Richard was lying in a pool of his own blood with Jennie crouched over him, feeling wildly for a pulse or a sign of life that Lisa knew she wouldn't find. Richard was pale white as if he'd been void of his life blood for hours with a gun in his hand indicating that the bullet wound in his temple had been self-inflicted.
"Do something!" Jennie screamed, doubling over in pain as she leaned over her father's body.
Lisa dropped to her knees beside Richard, but knew there was nothing she could do even if she had been there when it happened. A bullet wound through the temple wasn't something she could fix and Richard had been dead for a while, but Jennie couldn't be convinced of that at the moment.
"You're going to be okay dad, Lisa's going to fix you." Jennie sobbed as she readied herself to give him CPR.
"He's not breathing Lisa, go get your medical bag and I can start CPR." Jennie screamed with tears streaming down her face.
"Jennie... baby... he's..." Lisa tried to form the words, but her heart wouldn't allow it.
"No!" she sobbed, starting compressions on Lisa's chest. She pressed down on her father's lifeless body over and over as tears rolled down her cheeks. "Save him Lisa Please! Please save him!" she begged and sobbed as her tiny arms pressed onto Richard's hollow silent chest, yielding absolutely no results. "Okay baby... okay. Let me take over for you." Lisa said, giving Jennie what she needed as Lisa took over the useless chest compressions.
"He's gone Bug." Jin said from the doorway with tears in his eyes.
"But what if Lisa can..." Jennie couldn't accept it yet and shook her head in denial.
