(Story Theme: obsession, dark romance plot)

Jennie's P.O.V.

Maybe it was all in my head. Those gestures and smiles from her that made the days so worthwhile. The devotion and loyalty that consumed me wishing to only be hers. Maybe it was a fantasy the love we'd had but it felt so real as I watched and admired those memories of us on repeat in my head.

I was the CEO of a global fashion company and Lisa was a business colleague of mine. We'd known each other for years and as time passed my feelings became stronger but for the longest time I hadn't found the right time to express how I felt. Or to but it more accurately, I'd have the right time but I'd missed my opportunity on several occasions.

When I finally did tell her how I felt, she reciprocated and I was elated. We started dating and it was casual at first but it became so much more. We spent everyday together and I fell so deeply in love with her. It was like a fairytale. I'd never been happier and I haven't been since.

But all fairytale have there dramatic plot twists and ours was no different. After years of being together, Lisa was offered a promotion for another company and when I disagreed with her decision to take the job, she told me she needed space. She broke up with me, left the company and wouldn't return my calls. The love story we'd written together was over just like that.

"Hey Jendukie, do you want another iced tea? Jennie?"

I glanced up at my colleague and best friend Jisoo who was stood beside my desk. "Sorry, I must have zoned out."

"You seemed deep in thought. Are you okay?" She asked in concern.

"I'm fine. Just thinking." I returned my attention to the masses of paperwork that flooded my desk. Since Lisa and I had broken up months ago, I now spent most of my time at the office.

"Okay well Rosé's on her way. Is it okay if I go a bit early, everything's finish?" She asked but I reminded distracted and just stared at the answering machine on my phone. Still no messages from Lisa.

"Of course." I faked a smile and continued typing.

"Thanks, you're the best! See you tomorrow." Jisoo waved as she left and closed the door behind her. As soon as she was gone, I opened my drawer an found an old photograph of Lisa and I together.

Once happy memories were now flooded with sadness. I hated being apart and I hated more that I couldn't think about anything else. Yet as the days turned to weeks, I made a plan to get her back so we could be together once again.

Lisa's P.O.V. (2 weeks later)

Maybe it was all in my head when I awoke one morning to find myself in a bizarre and unfamiliar location with hardly any light. Maybe it was a dream as I held my head that was aching, barely able to sit up let alone stand as my hand was attached to the lone wooden chair I was sat on.

As I tried to understand what was happening, the sound of the door opposite gained my attention hearing multiple locks being unlocked.

"Goodmorning Lisa." Jennie entered the room, with a wide smile on her face and a coffee tray in her hands. I hadn't seen her in a while but I instantly knew something was different about her as she placed the tray in a small table and moved another chair from the corner to sit with me.

"Jennie? What's going on..?" I asked, my hands were shaking as I trembled glancing around still trying to understand where I was.

"Nothing, we're just taking a mini vacation." She replied cheerfully, brushing my bangs with her hand as she'd always done before often saying she found it calming.

"But... we broke up? Seriously, what's going on?" I repeated but she seemed consumed in her own world.

"Do you want some coffee? You're very grumpy when you wake up Lili but I got those coffee beans you like from the market to make you some."

"What's going on? Let me go!!" I yelled but she just sighed.

"I'll only answer your questions when you're calmer."

"Calmer?! You're keeping me!"

She rolled her eyes and began puring 2 cups of freshly brewed coffee, the scent invading the hot and humid air. "Don't be ridiculous Lisa, I just want to talk."

"Talk about what?" I asked in confusion.

"Us, what else?" She handed me the coffee cup but with the only slight bit of strength I had, I threw it across the room as it shattered to the floor.

"Jennie, we can't keep having the same conversation! You keeping me here won't help." I shouted but she just stated at the remains of the coffee on the floor. She'd been calling for me every day since we broke up to the point where it made it so difficult to move on. She was insisted we were still together and maybe I'd failed to really notice how obsessive she'd become in the past few months.

"You're right, we can't. So you need to think very wisely about how you speak to me or they'll be consequences." Her eyes met mine, suddenly a chill ran down my spine.

"What do you mean..?"

"I mean, you need to stop getting angry and listen to me. Now, come here." She opened her arms for a loving embrace like we'd always done before but I just shook my head.

"No..."

"Lisa, I'm asking nicely." She said but glared at me sternly.

"Let me go." I stated again, quieter this time to hold back my tears.

She scoffed. "So you can run off and leave me again? I don't think so."

"Why are you doing this?" I could feel myself become more emotional with every second that passed.

"Because we're meant to be together. We had it all, the business, the house, we were planning our future and you just left me like I was nothing!"

"It wasn't like that! I cared about you, I really tried. I loved you so much but things changed between us and it wasn't working. You kept constantly getting jealous, I never saw my friends and you started getting angry all the time! Then when I was offered the promotion at work you didn't want me to take it-"

"I wanted us to stay together." The atmosphere of the room suddenly became colder.

"Jennie, please listen to me-"

"I love you, Lisa."

As she wrapped her arms around me, it was a strange seeking to describe. It was nostalgic and yet I'd never felt more distant from her. I wondered if this was all really a dream and perhaps I would wake up tomorrow and the confusion and chaos would vanish.

As she sung our favorite song in my ear holding me closely, I clung to the hope that maybe this was all just in my head.
