Too Perfect (Jensoo)

Episode 9

|Jisoo|

Jennie decides to install a home security system.

A very high class home security system.

I don't get this sudden change in her but maybe she's hallucinating and becoming paranoid from lack of sleep.

She has been sleeping. Just not at night. I convinced Taeyang that Jennie sleeping during work is part of her design process. I made a PowerPoint and explained to him exactly how naps should be relevant during work and he agreed...just for Jennie though since Jennie studied in an Ivy League school with a scholarship for a double major in computer science and math. He showed me her resumé and the previous work she had done for clients. It says that this is her first company and that she had worked privately for clients on a contract and listed them as references. Taeyang told me that each reference matched and he had to check because Jennie was too good to be true.

I honestly don't entirely believe that a woman could have enough wealth to build her own robot and live in a house for 12 years on just private contracts. Jennie made them a lot of money but I don't understand financially how that works.

The only conclusion I can come up with is that she worked for a broker company that got her clients and contracts. But why would she lie about working with a broker company?

"Jisoo."

I look up from the book Jennie let me borrow and see her holding another hammer. I widen my eyes and jump out of bed. I walk towards her and ask, "What are you doing?"

She laughs. "Don't worry. I'm not doing anything like with what happened to my phone." She raises the hammer and I close my hand over her grip on the arm of it. "I need you to help me reach something."

I frown. "You mean....like lift you?"

She nods. "Yeah. I need to go buy a casual home stool or ladder but for now....Help would be much appreciated."

I nod and move my hand off hers. "Okay let's go."

I follow her down the hallway and see her trying fix a home alarm. She places the hammer down and picks up a screwdriver. "I need to mount this so just pick me up—SHIT JISOO!"

I had already bent down and wrapped my arms in a tight lock under her butt and lifted her up. "What?"

"I WAS GOING FOR TELL YOU WHEN!" She shouts.

"Why are you shouting?"

"BECAUSE I WASN'T READY!" She places her hand on my head and digs her fingers into my hair, clutching tightly. "PUT ME DOWN!"

"You have everything! Why don't you just fix it?" I say logically.

She huffs out a breath and says, "I hate you."

I pull my head back and little bit more back so that I'm not staring into her chest. She stares down at me as I frown and ask, "What? Is everything okay? What did I do wrong? I'm sorry. Please don't hate me."

She moves her hand from my hair to hold my cheek as she says, "No Jisoo. You're fine. I'm just.... Just hold me steady okay?"

I nod and hold she closer as I rest my forehead against her stomach. I hear her ask, "Can you take a small step back?"

I follow her instruction and she stretches a bit and her shirt goes up so that my nose is touching her actual skin. I feel this overwhelming thing inside me and I take a bigger step back until my back crashes into the wall.

Jennie grunts and asks in surprise, "Are you okay Jisoo?"

I swallow and I don't know why I do it because I'm basically swallowing air. I don't know what it means but I do know that seeing Jennie's skin is making me feel things. I can't feel things. I'm a robot.
