THE EX { ChaeSoo| Rosé G!P }✔️

CHAPTER 10

Jisoo was on her bed trying to sleep
but she couldn't because she was
restless. She couldn't understand why
Haein didn't pick up her call. She knew it was late when she had called but she was certain that Haein wasn't asleep at that hour because he normally stayed up late. She hoped deep down that something wasn't wrong with him but what she couldn't figure out was why he hadn't called her back.

He should've seen her missed calls by now, she thought to herself. She was trying hard to sleep when she heard her phone ring. She jumped from her bed excitedly thinking that maybe Haein  had called back. She hurriedly picked up the call without checking the caller ID.

"Hello, baby. Are you okay?" She asked.

"Jisoo, it's me, Chaeyoung." She heard
Chaeyoung's voice to her disappointment

"Jisoo, are you okay?"

She composed herself for Chaeyoung  not to notice the disappointment in her voice.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Hi."

"I'm sorry to be calling you at this hour. I know it's late but I was wondering if we could go out tomorrow."

Jisoo wasn't expecting that so soon.
She had no idea how to reply to the
invitation. She and her ex going out
on a date, that was questionable, she
thought to herself.

Chaeyoung, on the other hand, was worried he had said something wrong since he didn't hear her say anything.

"Please, don't misunderstand me, Jisoo. I just want us to go out, nothing more.But, it's okay for you say no."

"No, no, please don't take my silence
the wrong way, Chaeyoung. It's just that I wasn't expecting your call and I'm a little surprised at your invitation. Although, you know you already mentioned something about us hanging out, I wasn't expecting it so soon." She honestly replied.

"Im sorry, if you like we could postpone it. Maybe some other time?"

"Please, don't. Tomorrow is fine by me. What time should I be ready?"

Chaeyoung was excited that she agreed to hang out. Jisoo  could hear it in his voice.

"8 pm would be fine"

"Okay, I'll be ready by 8."

"Okay then, goodnight. See you
tomorrow."

"Good night," she replied and the line
went dead.

Jisoo  decided not to stay up any
longer because she was already
developing a headache from worrying
too much, so she went to bed with the
thought of her date with Chaeyoung  the following night.

Jisoo  woke up the next morning glad that the headache was gone. She decided not to go to the company that
day after having a stressful previous
week and also because she knew that if she went to the company, she wouldn't be able to get prepared on time for her date with Chaeyoung.

She called Craig to let him know that she wouldn't be coming to work today, so he was in charge of the company that day. She hung up after the call and headed downstairs for breakfast, she was wearing a tank top with denim shorts.

"Good morning, Mom," she greeted her mom who was already at the dining table.

"Good morning, love. I thought you'd
never wake up and I didn't want to
bother you," her mom said.

She then took a better look at Jisoo
and noticed that she wasn't dressed for work as she was just in a white crop top and denim shorts.

"Aren't you going to the company
today?.. Or wait, don't tell me you're
already tired, cos I'm your mother and I took care of that company for over 3 years now and you've only been there for like 2 weeks and a half?

"Mom, could you let me explain
sometimes before you come to your
own conclusions?"

"I was only asking, honey." her mom
replied.

Jisoo  began twiddling her thumbs.
Her mom stared at her with a questioning look, a little surprised at
her sudden nervousness.

"Is there something you wanna tell me, honey?" Her mom asked.

Jisoo  then stopped and turned to her
mom, she took a deep breath and said,

"Chaeyoung called last night and wanted us to go out on a date tonight and, I said yes."

Her mom was excited to hear that.

"Honey?! She did that?"

Jisoo just nodded in reply.

"So, we'll go shopping then, to get you
something nice to wear."

"Mom?"

"Yes, sweetie."

"Am I doing the right thing?... I mean,
going out on a date with my ex?"

"Look honey, you're doing nothing wrong. It's not like you're getting back
together with her.... It's only a date, so
don't be so nervous about it."
