Remembering Me

Chapter XXXIX: Truth

Third Person's P.O.V

After Jennie's outburst earlier, Jisoo never left her side. Jennie was already awake, she's calmer now but she's not talking nor looking at anyone. She just keeps on staring at the ceiling, her face void with emotion. Their friends already went home while Kai, Taehyung, Jisoo and Chaeng stayed. 

Jennie's parents visited her earlier after Taehyung informed them. They were thankful that their eldest daughter has finally woken up, yet they were saddened after Kai told them about Jennie's outburst. They stayed for awhile, hoping that Jennie wakes up again but unfortunately she didn't. Though they didn't knowing that Jennie was already awake, she just doesn't want to talk to their parents right now. 

"Jennie, you should eat some." Kai said worriedly, but Jennie didn't even gave him a glance. Kai sighed and just put down the food on the table. They just let her be, since they know that it's a lot to take in for Jennie right now. 

"I can't believe that five days has passed since that night happened yet I was only sleeping. I didn't even get to do something to help him." they all turned their heads to Jennie when she finally spoke. 

"It's all my fault." she said, holding back a sob. Jisoo hushed her, gently caressing her hand in comfort. "It's not your fault, Jendeuk. Don't ever blame yourself. Liam wouldn't like it." 

At the mention of his name, Jennie starts to cry again. Images from that night played back in her mind over and over again. "No, unnie. It's mine. If only I didn't got lost, if only I've listened to his side he would still be here by now." she sobs on Jisoo's embrace. 

"Something was still going to happen if you didn't get lost, Jen." Taeh spoke out of nowhere. Jennie looks at him confusedly. 

"Are we really going to tell her, right now?" Kai asks. 

"She should know already, and besides everything has already been done." Taeh said in monotone. 

"Stop talking as if I'm not here." Jennie said. The three looks at each other before nodding in agreement. 

"Jennie, it has all been a plan. Your accident, Liam getting framed up, his death, and everything." Jisoo said, trying to speak softly although there is still anger evident in her tone. 

"What?" Jennie asks warily. 

"Mingyu planned everything. He was obsessed with you. He was in loved with you, then Liam came into the picture and you two fell in loved with each other. He was jealous he did everything to separate you two. That time when you saw Liam in the hotel with another girl, that was set up by him and his friends. Your accident was also planned, they messed with your car in order for the car not to function and for him to show up and 'help' you." Jisoo paused, wetting her lips. Jennie was surprised with these information she can't utter a single word. 

"His plans went wrong when you got into an accident, they thought the car would just stop suddenly but they didn't know it was the brakes that they've cut. He took advantage of your amnesia and pretended to be your lover. We were against this but your dad was brainwashed by him that's why he agreed for him to act as if he's your boyfriend. That piece of shit did everything to own you." Taeh continues for Jisoo. 

"I..."

"Then his plans went down again when a part of you remembered that you two weren't lovers..."

"I didn't remembered it at that time actually. Hanbin just told me." Jennie cuts Taeh off. 

"What??" the four of them were surprised of what they heard. 

"Yes. He was the one who slowly explained to me about everything. That's why you guys sometimes saw me talking with him." Jennie said.
