Lowkey, Wifey | Jenlisa (Book 2)

7 - nothing happened

- Lisa's POV -
-- Two Weeks Later --

I paused the music in the dance studio and made my way to a seat, dropping down in exhaustion from dancing. "Hey, Lisa, i'll edit the youtube video tonight and send it right to you." The guy came up, explaining. "Sure, yeah. Like the old days." I gave him a quick glance and smile before burying my eyes in my phone.

"Lisa, you not coming?" I heard one of the dancers ask, bringing my attention up to see her as the last one in the studio by now. "I'll take a breather for minute." I replied. "Something wrong?" She continued, throwing her gym bag on her shoulder. "Why do you ask?"

"I know it's none of my business but for a good week now you have been coming in so early and leaving so late even if it's unnecessary. Why are you overworking yourself like that?" She slowly made her way closer.

"It's good to give into some cardio at times. I'm all good." I pushed up a smile to assure her. "Lisa, what cardio are you talking about? You're literally hurting yourself by sleeping so little and the dancing, have no desire to take a break like we all do when we are learning the choreography."

"I'm seriously fine. Don't worry." I started packing up my bag. "Well if you say so. See you next time." I heard the door shut as she had left. I gave out sigh and relaxed back in the chair.

Genuinely it has been getting worse and worse. I don't know what is wrong with me. Being honest to each other is the first rule in our situationship but to tell her that i'm leaving early and arriving late on purpose is gonna make me feel even more terrible.

And why am i even doing it? I can't explain it to my own self. It's almost like i'm scared to see her. To watch her give all her attention to me, be loving.. it makes me want to say sorry about everything but mainly for the fact that i'm losing interest to put effort in the situationship.

My thoughts were cut short as my phone started ringing. I grabbed it and picked up the call. "Listen, no declining because i know you are free on an evening so get dressed and i'll send you the location of a restaurant. We're having dinner together tonight. Long time no see." Jisoo just rapidly blurred everything out, making me take in a second to understand everything properly.

"Don't even try to think of an excuse right now. Lisa, we have to get back on track with spending time together." She continued. "Alright, alright. I'm down. The four of us again? Like old times?" I questioned. "Well the best k-pop group back then and until now so of course all four of us, it'll be difficult to see us not hang out together." She gave off a laugh through the phone.

"Okay, okay. Send me the location and i'll be there in a few minutes." I ended the call and stood up, grabbing my bag before heading over to the showers. Honestly i knew it's gonna be a hassle with what Jennie and i experienced just two weeks ago but there was something in me that just couldn't say no to meeting all of them again.

--
I entered the restaurant and scanned my eyes across the tables, immediately spotting the three sitting down, buried in their menus. "Was planning on ordering before i got here?" I stopped by their table, gazing over them all. "Lisa, we would never!" Rosé answered with a smile, opening her arms for a hug that i gave into.

"Exactly. We never had the idea of ordering before waiting until you get here." Jisoo suspiciously looked at me, purposely making it obvious that she's lying. "Yeah, right." I chuckled back, leaning over the table to give her a hug as well.

My eyes traveled to the other side. Jisoo and Rosé being sat together so my only option was to sit next to Jennie. "Lovely to see you again." I scooted next to her whilst saying. "Same to you." She replied yet i grabbed my menu, already looking over the options for meals.

"What's going on again?" I heard Jisoo speak, bringing my eyes up to her in confusion. "8 years weren't enough to get over the break up?" Rosé spoke in, almost like she's fully acknowledged about what Jisoo meant.

"Well that was harsh." Jennie allowed herself to answer first. "What do you mean harsh? We both here understand that it might be hard to adapt to meeting your ex so often but come on! You both have partners and yours relationship feels like was decades ago." Rosé explained herself.

"Well, exactly. Both taken and no feelings attached to one another so what are you on about?" I gave a glance to Jennie before back to them. "You know a good greeting, in our case a hug, is something we always do. I didn't see that happen so that's what i'm on about."

"Oh, Rosé, calm down! We said hi and that's at most something." Jennie chuckled to herself by how childish this is. "What can i get you ladies?" The conversation broke apart as the waiter had came up.

--
"No because that was the most funniest stage fail we ever had!" Jisoo continued, laughs coming out of all of us around the table. "Those truly were great times. Nothing can beat that." Rosé eased out, giving us a smile.

"Lisa, can i have a word with you?" My arm was nudged by Jennie so i put my knife and fork down, giving her a nod as we both stood up. I followed after her to the bathroom, having us both alone now. "So? I think i might have an idea on what this is gonna be about." I proudly crossed my arms, seeing the guilt appearance on her face.

"Then your idea is completely correct because i truly want to apologize. The alcohol did get the best of me and that mixed with my emotions is already a wake up call for disaster." She flowed the confession out.

"It's okay. Time might have passed but when you drink, it's a whole new Jennie that appears." I chuckled to my own words. "Thank you for understanding and it would be great we act as if nothing like that happened. Just like we are surprisingly doing right now." She pulled up a smile.

"You know it's never an excuse to blame actions on alcohol but i'll let this one slide." I proudly replied. The two of us sharing a laugh about it.
