LISA POV

The life is back to normal now or may I say almost normal. Liam still has nightmare from time to time but other than that he is so strong he didn't lost his innocence or his joy and I am so grateful about that. Jennie still being treated for her shoulder since four weeks now and there is a great improvement.

But the only thing is, she is like changed, I don't how to explain it but something in her was not the same anymore. She of course came to see us and spend a great time with her son but with me is another question. Sometimes I found her looking at me with sad eyes but she diverted her eyes once I look at her. She behaved like she did everything to not disturb me, to avoid me. She didn't even try to make any physical contact with me. Maybe she is tired of asking for forgiveness, if that is the case so I am very disappointed how could she give up so fast. I don't deserve for her to fight more for me?

I really need to know where we stand, after what happened with Liam everything has changed. I am convinced that I can't live without Jennie, the life is so short that I don't want to live with regrets but in the same time I have my pride I can't just fall in her arms without any effort from her. I know you will tell me that she did do a lot of efforts to ask for my forgiveness but I am eager for more. Especially since the accident her behaviour was completely different I am not sure if she wants me anymore.

Argghh I will become crazy with all these thoughts.

Comfortably seating in my couch with a warm cup of tea, cuddling with my son in front of The Lion King, I heard someone trying to break my door. I run to open it.

"Why you don't pick your phone for God sake." Jisoo yelled at me.

"It's on silent what happened?" I replied.

Seeing Liam on the couch she grabbed my arm pulling me towards the room and closed the door.

"I'm not going to turn around the pot because we don't have time Jennie is leaving."

"Leaving? What do you mean?"

"Leaving like going somewhere far from here, like leaving us, like definitely." She said impatiently.

I couldn't speak for a moment trying to get what she said.

"But...why?" I end up asking.

"Because Jennie is an idiot." Jisoo said with a huff.

I sat on the edge of the bed, not believing it. So she decided to give up on me, on us. So that's the reason of her weird behaviour with us two nights ago. I saw tears in her eyes when she hugged Liam longer than usual.

"It's her choice. What do you want me to do." I replied softly I didn't have any strength in me anymore.

"What I want you to do are you asking me for real!" She barked.

She didn't let me the time to speak.

"Listen and listen well because I am so tired of you two! How long will you play at cat and mouse? Lisa!?"

"I am not playing." I replied.

"Of course you do. Look at me Lisa.." She said kneeling on front of me.

"Do you still love Jennie?"

I gave her the look Do you really need to ask.

"In this case go after her, fight for your love.  I know it's not you who has to do it but Jennie is convinced that you don't want her anymore and her presence is making you sad so she decided to leave she is so in love with you that she prefers to let another man make you happy."

"That what she said?" I asked. She nodded. Her belief on our love is so weak I thought.

"Let your pride aside Lisa and go bring her back, for you, for your son, for your happiness."

I stared at her, debating with myself.

"Don't be stubborn, if she lost hope give it to her, you are the one able to do this.... go!!" Jisoo said making me stand by pulling my hand.

Yes I have to do it lets us reunite again, be a family and start a best future. After some seconds I nodded eagerly, Jisoo let out a deep breath and smiled.

"Where is she." I asked.

"The airport he has a flight to New Zealand ... You still have an hour and half." She replied checking her watch.

I grabbed my coat and started to walk when I heard.

"Hey take this." Jisoo said throwing the keys of her car.

"Thanks and take care of Liam." I said behind my shoulder.

"Of course I will.."

By chance the road was empty I reached there 30 minutes later. I run like a crazy looking everywhere when I heard someone calling me. It was Jennie's driver. We exchanged looks in silent before he said.

"Follow me.."

After endless minutes I saw her, I recognised Jennie back in a white simple shirt. Seeing her waiting for hers turn calmly bring up in me such rage that I run to her I grabbed her shoulder making her turn towards me. Before she could recognise me, I gave her a hard slap. I heard gasps from the other passengers but I didn't care I could only see Jennie no one else.

"Lisa..."

"Lisa.." I mimicked her. She looked at me like I had two heads.

I pulled her from the queue and pushed her in a corner we stared at each other until I spoke.

"So you are doing it again." I said with my arms crossed on my chest.

She narrowed her eyes at me.

"What do you lost your tongue... I didn't know you are a coward."

"What..." I didn't let her finish.

"You are leaving us alone again, you abandon us again. I thought you learnt your lesson but I was wrong."

"I don't... it's just I want you to be happy.."

"You really don't understand... In addition to being a coward you are also an idiot! You really thought that I can be happy without you Jennie?!"

"But you said that you don't want me anymore and..."

I stopped her lifting my hand in front her face.

"I know what I said but I expected from you to be a fighter, to believe in our love. It's not you who said that you won't ever give up on me or that was a lie too." I asked.

"I am sorry, I know you deserve someone better than me." She said looking at the floor.

"Oh stop this for God sake, I don't want your apology." I replied. I saw her face broke down like she didn't know what to do anymore. I smiled inwardly, seeing her so lost with her eyes pleading. I decide to end hers torture.

"Just kiss me already.." I said with a smirk.

Hers expression was so funny, eyes like a saucers, open mouth and trembling hands.

"For how long I have to wait." I added tapping with my foot impatiently.

I kept looking at her waiting to feel the warm of her lips on mine again. Once she regained hers spirit she caught my face with her two hands and gave me the most powerful kiss he never gave me.

That's what I want, that's where I belong.
