"Lisa?" Jennie asks from the bedroom.
"Here..." I say leaning against the counter. I cleaned everything, moved the table next to the sofa more towards the window and I just kept the lights of the kitchen on...
She enters the open space and looks at me... and at the bottle of Soju next to the two glasses, placed on top of the counter.
"... I have wine too..."
She tries not to smile and walks over to me. She sits on the counter chair, near the wall and the vase of flowers, and pours the Soju into the glasses in silence.
She drinks hers... I grab mine and drink it too.
I walk behind the counter.
"... I just know two songs... so bare with me."
She chuckles as I grab my ukulele.
"Then choose wisely... because I'm still annoyed..." she says still using her cute, cold tone with me.
Aish, this girl... I sit on a chair's counter next to her. One of the songs is the over-the-rainbow... so do I really have a choice...?

"~... I'm a little bit soft ~"
"~... But don't beat yourself up Jennie ~"
"~... It wasn't just the angy you that I was hiding from ~"
She chuckles smiling.
"~... We were messed up kids who taught ourselves how to live ~"
"~... And I'm still scared that I'm not good enough ~"
"~... I've always felt like a Monster~"
"~... Long before I was bit ~"
"~... But only seen as a monster ~"
"~... Let's just say I'm used to it ~"
"~... And I grew tough 'cause love had only hurt me back ~"
"~... But loving you is a good problem to have ~"
"~... And I'm used to that, but I could get used to this ~"
Her soft brown eyes...
"~... Yeah I'm used to that, but I could get used to this ~"
"~... And I know we'll never grow old together ~"
"~... 'Cause, you'll never grow old to me ~"
"~... You're the pink in my cheeks ~"

"~... I'm a little bit soft ~"
"~... You're the pink in my cheeks ~"
"~... And I love that it means ~"
"~... I'm a little bit soft ~"
She holds my face and kisses my cheek with so unnecessary strength, making me close my eyes and laugh.
I place the ukulele on the counter.
"... The song you owe me, you better play it with your guitar too..."
"Mhm..."
"Are you still annoyed...?"
"It depends... what I gain if I say yes...?"
"I'll take that as a no..." I chuckle and hold her hand on her lap... lean in and kiss her.
"... Do you still remember what you also said that you wanted tonight?" I get up.
She smirks.
I chuckle.
