Jennie

I walked through the private jet I borrowed from Dad and quickly took my seat. This is one of my perks as her daughter. Money doesn't buy happiness but it sure make life easier for you, No? 

The captain briefly greets me as he explains the do's and don'ts which I'm already accustomed with already.

As I opened my phone,  since I haven't really touched it after deciding I want to see Lalisa, I called my mom and dad. I told them about me leaving the country with the context of visiting Lalis, Yeah. I'm visiting her.

Out of nowhere. She didn't even know that I'm coming. Great, you're a really good guest Ruby Jane.

I heard my own conscience mocking me but I ignore it after seeing Lisa's name on the screen.

Lalisa

I'm sorry Jen. I'm really busy, I'll make it up to you, Okay? I'll see you soon.

I furrowed my eyebrows in disbelief. Is she serious?! My annoyance heightened seeing she only reply just once to my freakin' series of panicked texts.

What the fuck is she doing that she's this busy?!

I can't suppress the need to call her anymore. But then the airplane took off and I was forced to turn my phone off.

Itching to see her I feel too excited, but soon enough sleepiness took over my consciousness, drowning me in darkness.

-

"Miss Jennie, Miss Jennie, Miss Kim?" I slowly open my eyes as I look around.

Yeah, I remember. I fell asleep, I nod at the flight attendant who greets me as I pick my luggage up.

I was getting myself ready to go down when the pilot came out looking for me.

"Hey there, Miss Kim," I could tell just by the way he looks what he wants. It was that obvious.

"Thank you for the safe ride," I look at his name tag before meeting his eyes again. "Mister Walters."

Before I divert my attention away from him, I made sure that all my belongings were secured. As I went through the airport, I didn't expect the number of people greeting me.

It was my fans, waiting for me ( which I don't have any idea how they know that I'm here) as they yell my name.

"Jennie Kim!"

"Jennie!"

"I love you!"

"Saranghe! Jennie-yah!"

It really took me by surprise and thank god the airport guard was quick enough to dodge them for me or else I'd be swarmed and unable to move already. I walk forward searching for my chaperone, It's really hard to see since the amount of people is at least a hundred or so.

But thankfully, I knew the person who's going to drive me straight to Lalisa.

The guards escorted me, helps me block the people screaming my name as I smile politely to them. After all, who knows how much they waited to see me.

"Kim Dahyun." My cousin smiles at me as she guides me toward her car. The fans still followed me screaming at the top of their lungs, thankfully the guards guide me all throughout.

I would give their airline a 5-star review, their service is great.

"Hey cous. What's up? Why did you suddenly want to be here in LA?"

I could hear her overgrowing curiosity as she starts the car. My luggage was already on the trunk so we're set to go.

"Don't make it sound like I rarely travel Dahyun. This ain't that new y'know." I said as I buckle up my seatbelt, sassing up on her. Better safe than sorry. Dahyun has this little invasive tendency so I'm being careful. I don't want to jinx anything about me and Lalisa. I want it to be as flawless as possible.

"Don't push it Dahyun. I won't spill a thing." I said as I turned my phone on seeing no message from Lalisa light another fire in my heart.

Fuck it Lalisa! Why are you not contacting me?! Did you really forgot about me?! Did you meet another girl?! YOU'RE MINE LALISA!

My inner dominance growl as I look at Dahyun who's silently driving after I bitch on her.

"Speed up Dubu!" She was startled as she looks at my wide eyes, questioning why I called her in her nickname.

"Jeez.. what's wrong with you?! Jisoos! Don't shout at me, Okay? Why do you even want to go to LM Company? Do you have an appointment?" She didn't listen to me driving at a normal speed while asking a bunch of questions.

It fuels my annoyance as I yelled.

"Speed the fuck up Kim Dahyun!" She stared at me in confusion ( maybe because this time I called her by her whole name ) but seeing how serious I am she nods. And just like that, we fell into another silence.

I dialed Lalisa right away. I don't have any idea what time it is here in LA but fuck it. It looks like it's around morning, maybe 5? Or 4?

Also, the reason why I'm so shocked by the number of fans waiting for me earlier but nonetheless, that's really on the back of my mind.

I can't think of anything else besides Lalisa and why she's not contacting me. 

Fuck!

I'm practically boiling when the line ended and she's still not answering her phone.

Why the fuck?! My mind thinking is not helping at all, And I can't stop it!

I tried calling again as I watched Dahyun pulled the car in front of a huge building.

"Get your girl but I'm still not done with you."

I rolled my eyes at her as I got out of her car. "Send my luggage to my hotel. I'll see you there."

And just like that, I run off inside the huge building of LM. I didn't bother approaching the front desk and went straight to the elevator, ignoring the stares at me for whatever reason.

What's new anyway.

As I reached the elevator, Lalisa answered my call.

"He--"

"Lalisa! Where are you!" She didn't finish her words as I quickly interrupted her with my question.

Silence overtook us as I patiently wait for her response. Tapping my foot on the elevator floor.

"...At the company branch? What's wrong Jen?"

She must have heard how upset I am through my voice the reason why she asks that.

"Floor number, Lalisa."

"Why?"

"Just. Give. Me the. Floor. Number." As I emphasized each word; I heard her loud gulp on the screen.

"13-- Babe! Who are you talking to?"

I feel my whole existence flared up ready to explode. My inside where being squeezed by how hard I'm controlling my annoyance that now turns into instant fury. All my logic reasoning seems to vanish, just like every time there's something related to her and all I want to know is who Lalisa is with, why she's with that person, and how long. And so I pop the question.

"Tell me honestly Lalisa. Are you with another girl right now?" I heard a series of loud gulp before I heard her answer.

"Y-Yes. I- I am..bu--" I cut her out as I feel my tone dropped. My eyes hardened ready to rip out anyone-- that she's with.

"You're in trouble Lalisa. In big trouble."
