There is only pain Jennie felt which no one understands except her. His absence was slaying her heart. She tried to soothe the anguish, but it is hurting from deep inside.

"Why did he leave for New York without telling?" Jennie asked in a whisper. If he has an important meeting, he could have notified me. It looks like I am not significant to him anymore.

"His grandfather got a sudden stroke in the morning and he left in a hurry. He did not intend to disturb you when you were sleeping steadfastly." Jungkook explained to make her understand that Taehyung didn't leave on purpose. "Don't worry! He said he would soon contact you."

"Stroke? Is he ok now?" Jennie asked in urgency perceiving that Taehyung must be miserable now.

"I am not sure. It's the second time his grandfather experienced. But I hope he would be fine." Jungkook explained while stepping down the stairs along with Jennie. Everybody was waiting for Jennie and Jungkook except the newly wedded couple. Austin and Leah already left for their honeymoon.

"You should come here often, child" Mark patted her head with a smile.

"The house would turn into a dormouse without you, Jennie!" Daisy stepped forward and hugged her. "I hope we will soon meet at your wedding."

Jennie's face turned crimson red and with a timid smile, she bid goodbye to everybody before stepping into the car.

"Are we going to New York by car? It would take fifty hours, Jungkook." Jennie exclaimed facing him.

"Wait and watch." Jungkook simply put up a one-word answer since he didn't want to reveal the surprise yet.

Since it was the peak time, the ride in the car was longer than they expected to reach the airport. Getting down from the car, Jungkook took her to a private terminal. From the time they footed into the car, Jungkook was bragging about some kind of surprise, and Jennie also did not probe further, patiently awaiting all though she was curious to know, why he would take her in a private terminal unless they are boarding a private aircraft.

The moment they reached the airfield, a private jet was waiting for them on a runway.

"We are going in a private jet?" Jennie asked studying the aircraft.

"This is V's private aircraft and none of our friends have stepped into it until now. We are the first one to enter." Jungkook was sounding all excited when Taehyung sent his private aircraft especially for them. Even though it was for Jennie, he was on cloud nine for getting a chance to travel in it. He quickly pulled out his mobile and posed for a selfie to post on his Instagram to annoy his mortal enemy.

If Jungkook was in his world of shooting photos on the mobile, Jennie was staring intently at the name written on the aircraft.

"Raven. What a coincidence!" The name carried her back to six years where she suggested a name to someone for a person when he told her he wanted a name for a plane. It's the sacred bird of God Apollo which was cursed to flew in the sky.

"Why did he name it Raven?" Jennie asked wanting to know if he has also listened to the story of Raven and named after it.

"I was also curious about the name but when our friends asked, V said, he doesn't have any clue on why he named it Raven."

'Who forgets such important things? It's worth billions unless he is rolling in money.'

"Is he made of money?" She asked. Jennie understood he must be a silk stocking rich kid but she was still unsure what he does exactly.

"He is. Soon, you will get to know. Right now my lips are sealed since you both are playing hide and seek." Jungkook rambled. He got to know from Taehyung that Jennie has no idea of his identity and until today, he assumed she was calling Taehyung with a nickname to tease him. The urge to vomit everything about Taehyung was at the tip of his mouth but when he recalled the Devil's face, he locked it.

After getting on the plane, they felt as if they entered a luxurious hotel. For a while, they explored the area, and finally Jungkook got settled on the couch turning on the television and Jennie opened her tab to watch her favorite TV show Just Add Magic.

"You know sister, V was the one to sponsor for Leah and Austin's honeymoon," Jungkook complained out of blue. When it comes to money, every woman would become a miser and he was sure Jennie would not leave the matter aside. He has lit the fire to get back on his revenge which is still pending.

"What? For a whole month, he funded?" Jennie exclaimed.

With a devilish smile, Jungkook nodded his head.

"Thanks for informing, brother," Jennie acknowledged. Does he have a money-printing machine or what? Jennie made a note to lecture him for wasting the money on unnecessary things and those two idiots are enjoying one month of his free service?

As Taehyung instructed, Jungkook dropped Jennie at her house after they landed in New York and Jennie has to decline Francis with another cook up story when Jungkook was not listening to her. Only when she entered her apartment safe and secure, Jungkook left the house.

...

"Is it a house or a laundry bag? Both have turned my house into a dustbin." Jennie glanced at the clock and it was still eleven in the morning. While she couldn't resist the urge, she began cleaning the house.

After a whole lot of cleaning, she dragged her tired body and slumped onto the bed.

...

She opened her eyes when she felt ticklish on her face, more likely someone was damping it.

"It's the nth time I told you not to lick my face, kuma," Jennie yelled and immediately kuma rushed out of the room when her purpose was attained.

"Jennie, I missed you a lot." Rosé entered hugging her friend.

"Now, admit the truth." Jennie pushed her away from Rosé's fleshy hug to breathe a little.

"I enjoyed my ten days without your presence," Rosé confessed when Jennie saw through her lies. "So, how was the wedding?"

"Amazzzzzinggg and I bought something for you. You will love it."

"Is it?" Rosé jumped from the bed and opened all the bags turning the room into a mess in the process. Finally, she found a gift which was neatly wrapped and her name was also etched on it.

"Poop ice cubes tray? Are you serious, Jennie?" Rosé yelled. The shape itself was disgusting to see and to her annoyance, it was something related to food.

"Well, the company claimed that the ice cubes would turn out to be delicious when you put them into your mouth." Jennie giggled imagining it already.

"Dirty girl." Rosé was about to charge on her to make sense into her brain, but Jennie interrupted.

"I want to tell you something important."

"I am all ears." Rosé collapsed on the bed to hear the story.

"I_I like someone." She hesitantly confessed gazing at the floor.

"Is it a woman?" Rosé lazily asked knowing the answer already.

"I am serious, Rosé."

"Don't tell me you took a liking to a man now." Rosé jumped from her position when she witnessed Jennie's shy smile.

"Woah! Who is he? You fell for him in ten days?"

Rosé was shocked to hear the sudden news. Who is that person who has tamed this man-hater in ten days when she took literally four years to accept Kai?

"Don't compare with him, Rosé. Please." Jennie whispered. It was still a surprise that Kai is his cousin. Both are polar opposite.

"Oh my, Jennie! you have turned into a cowed wife already." Rosé felt happy that Jennie finally found someone.

"Cowed wife? Sounds good and since he stole my heart, I am planning to take revenge on him." Jennie declared.

"Revenge? What kind of revenge?" Rosé asked in confusion.

"I am going to take his last name." Jennie proclaimed with a sheepish smile.

Rosé parted her lips in shock hearing her shameless answer.
