Once Jennie's words landed, Lisa suddenly felt like the world was silent.
The two of them were still hugging each other, having forgotten to let go.
She couldn't see Jennie's expression, and Jennie couldn't see her expression.
She couldn't smile; her eyes and heart were both filled with shock.
Her brain whirled as she tried to think: exactly where had she accidentally exposed her identity as an IU fan?
Then a lightbulb went off in her brain as she figured it out.
It was when she was replying to Jungkook!
She had let Jennie help reply back then.
Damn it, she was actually the one who let Jennie use her phone!
She had been too careless!
She was very upset about it and even started wondering unconsciously if she should try to muddle her way through it.
But she had just promised Jennie she wouldn't lie to her; how could she go back on her word like that?
But how should she try to explain this?
If she lied, she was untrustworthy.
If she was honest, she was worried Jennie would feel deceived and stop talking to her in anger.
Thinking about it, she suddenly became very despondent.
Unable to make a decision, she shouted for Jackson to help her.
After calling out in her heart twice, Jackson finally appeared.
【What is it, what is it?】
【What happened?】
"I've encountered a lethal problem, and if I'm not careful, I might have to confess right now."
【I just looked away for a moment, and you immediately threw a life crisis at me.】
Lisa told him everything.
"She's been too good to me, and I was so moved, so I said I would treat her very, very well in the future. Then she said I had to be honest with her and that I couldn't lie. I thought this was something that friends should do anyway, so I agreed."
Jackson propped up his chin and listened, not hearing a problem: 【Isn't that pretty good?】
"That's because you don't know what question she asked me."
【What question?】
Lisa was on the verge of tears. "She asked me why my phone's home screen is Jieun. What should I do?"
Lisa started deliberating again, only being able to ask Jackson for help.
"I just promised her I wouldn't lie to her, but if I tell the truth, will she get mad at me and ignore me? I only just managed to make such a good friend."
She didn't want to lose a friend like Jennie.
Jackson watched the data jump on the screen, silently contemplating.
It was like he was an old father facing his teenage daughter now.
After a moment, he said: 【If you're scared, then be honest. Cherished friends are even more deserving of honesty. Lying will only make you grow further and further apart. Besides, didn't you pretend to be her fan in the beginning because you were scared of disappointing her? This can't be blamed; you had good intentions. And Jieun means so much to you that it's normal for you to like her. I believe Jennie will understand your feelings as a fan.】
