Predestined - JENSOO - ENGLISH VERSION

Chapter 16

Jisoo

"Jisoo, I'm really worried.' I feel Lisa shake me by the shoulders and I blink several times "What's going on?"

"I...huh...I don't know..." I look back at the phone screen and let out a sigh.

"What happened, Jisoo?"

"Jennie..." I say softly.

"What happened to her?"

"She asked me to be her girlfriend." I furrow my eyebrows and look at Lisa again. She looks surprised and then confused.

"Is this bad?"

"I'm just having a really strong gay panic."

"Don't you like her?"

"Yes."

"And she doesn't like you?"

"Yes."

"So what's the problem?"

"I'm confused, I wasn't expecting it."

"Jisoo, I don't understand anything."

"During the day we had a pointless argument and I don't even remember why" I scratch my chin " And now she sent an audio apologizing and asking if I want to date her."

"You're going to web date."

"Yeah?"

"If you accept."

"I already accepted."

"So?"

"I'm still processing everything."

"And when will you see each other?"

"I don't know."

"What do you mean?"

"We haven't talked about it yet."

"Do you make video calls?"

"No, why?"

"How will you date without these things?"

"I don't know, I've never done this before." I'm still confused, it seems like I can't assimilate anything.

"Has Jennie ever dated?"

"I don't think so, we don't talk about it either."

"For God sake, Jisoo, what are you talking about? What do you know about her?"

"I know she's amazing and I like her." I smile when talking about Jennie "I also know that we are still going to get married."

"Jisoo, control your gay hormones and pay attention" Lisa shakes me again "You've dated before, you know how things work. You need to have contact, as you are going to date, you have to have calls, video calls, doing things together in whatever way you can."

"But Jennie doesn't like calls... she's not a fan of talking on the phone."

"How are you going to date? How will this work?"

"I don't know, her routine is demanding and tiring, I can't keep demanding these things from her." I pout "I need to be understanding with her."

"Yes, but for the relationship to work, both parties have to talk and give in on some things to make everything flow, how will a long-distance relationship work without the basics?"

"Lisa, I don't know!!! I can't be toxic and demand things from her that she doesn't like to do." I shake my head and deny. "It's the first time I've done this and I'm also learning how it works."
