"And now, it's liveable." Jennie muttered to herself as she placed the vacuum at the side after cleaning up the unit.
It is now filled with furniture after five days of only the bedroom functioning unit. Jennie dropped herself at the soft couch and opened the television.
Come to the realization that, this is her life now. After her anticipated divorce (hopefully) she'll be living on my own. Would she be able to find anyone, whether she would or not, she's certain that she'll have her girls' back. And that's enough for her. In addition to that the growing bond between her and Lisa is something she'll cherish from that day on.
Jennie's train of thoughts was shortly cut after her phone buzzed at the coffee table.
From: 09xxxxxxxx
Hello, Lisa here. Got your contacts from the form your husband sent. I'm here to formally let you know that your husband rescheduled your counseling session at the last week of the month. Are you free during that day?
Jennie frowned, as she's certain that this matter was supposed to be sent via e-mail? She viewed texting as definitely not Lisa'e type. Especially this kind of matters.
To: Lisa Manoban (Marriage Counselor lol.)
Well, a pleasant surprise to see the great marriage 'savior' texting instead of emailing a client. But anyway, I'd make myself available as much as I can. But for now I'mma say I'd be able to answer you in a week if I successfully pull something out of the way during the session.
Jennie chuckled at her response as she reread it before clicking the send button anticipating Lisa's response. On the other hand, Lisa hid a smile while reading the message thinking of a way to get herself out of the situation that will make it look like she wants to be more informal with Jennie.
The thing about Lisa is that, client is a client, she always make sure that what she and her client do is purely professional. Thus she always resort to e-mails whenever there's a need for appointment or what sort of professional related communication. But with Jennie, she didn't mind texting at all, or the fact that she skimmed through pages of clients profile just to look for Jennie's contact number and to text her.
From: Lisa Manoban (Marriage Counselor lol.)
Guess I'll stick on emailing. Have a pleasant day Mrs Lee.
Jennie rolled her eye as soon as she saw the message she received. Lisa, sticking on email is a thing that made her eye roll and Lisa calling her Mrs Lee is another thing.
To: Lisa Manoban (Marriage Counselor lol.)
With all due respect Ms Manoban, quit calling me Mrs Lee, it's disgusting.
Lisa chuckled at what she received from the gorgeous cat eyed girl and was about to construct a reply but she received another message from the girl
From: Jennie Kim
Anyway, are you free later? I was hoping to throw a house warming party within this week, and I don't know anything about throwing a party much more a house warming one, can you perhaps help me with it?
To: Jennie Kim
For as long as I am invited to your house warming party, I'll help you. I'm free later by the way, Let's meet at Steakhouse near my office?
From: Jennie Kim
Of course you're invited, and bring some friend too. The friends you've told me before. A'ight, I'll be there at dinner. I'll book a reservation?
To: Jennie Kim
No need to book a reservation, I'll be taking care of it. See you later.
Lisa turns off her phone as she enters her car, driving to where Jisoo is, as her friend asked her for a favor since her car is under maintenance and is in need of a ride to a family meeting.
Jisoo, is currently at a flower shop nearby and once Lisa sees her, she beeps calling the attention of Jisoo.
"Are you planning on planting those?" Lisa asked as Jisoo kept on going in and out of the flower shop and shoving bouquets of flowers at her backseat.
Jisoo kept silent and shoved the last bouquet before entering the passenger seat.
"Nah, it's like a family get together with one of our family's closest friends, so i bought bouquets for the moms and their daughter." Jisoo said and Lisa just nod but kept on staring at Jisoo to tease her, as if she knew Jisoo is up to something.
"Don't stare like that it's weird." Jisoo said with a bit of an annoyed tone.
"Whatever you say, Is this about the love of your life that you can't pursue?" Lisa said and stopped on that teasing as she now stepped onto something in Jisoo.
"Hm yeah." Jisoo said timidly amd Lisa nodded.
The ride was short and it took them 20 minutes before arriving at an mansion's gate.
They were as soon as they both got out of the car they were welcomed by guards. Lisa helped Jisoo took out the bouquets and gave some of them to the guards.
"But Jisoo, if you know you love her, and you will do your best to keep her and you think she's worth the risk and the pain, then jump for it. Know that life is full of risks and pain, you just gotta figure out if it's worth the risk and the pain. I'll be going now, I have an important dinner." Lisa said meaningfully tapping Jisoo's shoulder before entering her car and she drove off.
