As soon as she realized that Rosé was freaking out, she figured it out, and as she thought about it, it’s not entirely hard to fall for Sofia; the hard thing is not knowing if she also loves you back. Her thoughts were then interrupted by the woman that she’s currently realizing she’s attracted to. “Are you ok?” was Sofia’s question to Rosé. “I’m fine, she replied as she calmed down. A part of her felt happy that she fell for Sofia, but she couldn’t entirely believe that it took this long for her to realize she was in love with her. She remembered everything as she watched the fireworks with Sofia.

After the show, they left the park, and Rosé noticed the height difference between them. She can compare it as she’s the same height as Jennie, and she was subtly looking at her hands for some reason, as she feels like she wants to hold Sofia’s hands. “What’s happening to me?” she asks herself in her head. “Is this what being in love feels like? was her next thought as she noticed that Sofia was staring at her. Then Rosé spoke. “So do you want to eat dinner?” she asked, and Sofia shook her head. “I’m so full and tired, and I just want to sleep in the comfort of my hotel room,” she said as she acted like there was a pillow right in front of them. Rosé chuckled. “Yeah, ok, do you want me to drive you to the hotel?” She offers it to Sofia, who shakes her head again. "Nope, if I tend to sleep in the car if I’m tired, no thanks; I’ll walk as I learned this is somewhere near the hotel,” she says to Rosé, who understands as she remembers sometimes sleeping in cars with the girls before when they’re too tired. “ok, stay safe,” she says as Sofia nods and waves her hand in goodbye as she walks away.

During the drive back home, Rosé still could not believe what just happened, and as she went home, she first texted Sofia to see if she had arrived at the hotel, and Sofia’s only reply was a sticker of a bear in bed sleeping, making her smile softly at how cute she is. Then, as she got home, she messaged their GC to tell the girls what happened.

Was what Jennie messaged in the GC, and before Rosé could say anything, her phone rang and she answered, and there she was virtually face-to-face with her three best friends or sisters. Rosé decided to speak. “Before we talk about me, where are you guys?” she asks curiously of them. “I’m currently in Hae-In’s family home for a family reunion, and we just arrived after we finished shooting a scene,” Jisoo said, but it looked like she hesitated before saying it. “Wow, unnie, it looks serious now.” Lisa teased her, and here’s the reason why Jisoo hesitated: “Lisa focus.” Jennie told Lisa, who stopped her teasing, “Well, I’m currently finishing up recording my new solo song.” She announced, which made everyone congratulate her. Then next was Jennie: “I’m collabing with a brand I'm working with.” She tells them, “My designer girlfriend.” Lisa says with admiration as Jisoo rolls her eyes, “Anyways, now that we’ve established what we’ve been doing, let’s go back to you, Rosie,” Jennie says as the other two stare at her.

Rosé gulped as they focused on her, it was like she was being interrogated by the girls. “So how did you realize?” Jennie’s question as Rosé then recounted the events on how it led to her realizing she was in love with Sofia. “And I don’t understand it, but when I saw her with those glows of the fireworks, she looked so pretty; she was there, and all I guess was the unrealized attraction that burst out of her and it made itself known,” she said, finishing her explanation and waiting for her friend’s reaction. The first one to speak was Lisa. “That’s kind of how I realized what I felt for Jennie wasn’t a crush,” she revealed to them.

Hearing that made the others curious, as Lisa explained more. “Me and Jennie were hanging out in the balcony on the dorms and we were talking about stuff until she pointed out the clouds had dispersed and the full moonlight had shone on Jennie’s face, and from there and at that point I realized that what I felt for her wasn’t just a crush; I was in love with her,” Lisa said as she finished explaining and reminiscing, “oh, so that’s why you acted a bit weird when I looked at you.” Jennie said what she remembered, and then they stared back at Rosé. “My advice, Rosie, is to check to see if Sofia meets your standards in dating and to observe and know if she likes you back,” was Jennie’s advice. “But you two didn’t even know you liked each other.” Jisoo pointed it out. “Yeah, unnie, but it’s to check if Sofia feels the same.” Jennie explained, and Rosé thanked them, and then the conversation ended as Rosé decided to take a bath and sleep as she dreamed of her and Sofia.
