Let me help you[JENSOO]

Jennie probably seemed calm as always, but Jisoo had learned to read the girl too well. And looking at the brown-haired girl now, Jisoo could unmistakably say that she was on the very edge beyond which her consciousness turns off, and she acts based only on internal impulses. It is not difficult to guess that now the main impulse was the desire to escape from the parents' house as far as possible.

-Don't stand there, go into the kitchen, Rose, show your girlfriend out, come on. I'll join you in a minute, and we'll all finally get to know each other.- Jennie's mom's hurried voice could be heard somewhere in the hallway, but Jisoo ignored it, already being in the kitchen next to her girlfriend.

Jennie was breathing fast, staring blindly at the photos hanging on the refrigerator. Her tense posture was exactly the same as that of her father, in which he stood in the living room when they entered. It was hard not to notice their physical resemblance, but, apparently, this wasn't the only thing in which they were similar.

-Coming here was a bad idea. They hate me.- Jennie muttered, barely audible, as if talking to herself, shaking her head violently.

-Hey, look at me.- Placing her palms on the girl's cheekbones, Jisoo almost forced her to raise her head and look into her eyes.- Jennie, honey, your parents love you. They missed you and are very glad that you are here. Stop worrying so much.

-Yes, I saw with what joy my father looked at me. Nothing has changed, I'm the biggest disappointment for him, just because I'm not going to be as insignificant as...- Jisoo saw Jennie getting more angry with every word, and her gaze filled with malice.

-Jennie!- Jisoo stopped the girl harshly, lightly slapping her cheeks for greater effect.- He's your father, at least try to talk to him properly. Don't even dare go into yourself, you're not alone here, I'm always there for Rose and your family. Please talk to us, I can't watch you shut yourself in and then go off the rails because you can't stand your own thoughts. In case you haven't forgotten, I should be the one panicking about meeting your parents right now. Don't take my role.

-I'm sorry.- The brown-haired girl exhaled, taking a step closer to Jisoo and snuggling up to her, noticeably relaxing.- I was a little nervous. I knew I missed my mom, but I didn't realize how much until I saw her.

The soft voices of Rose and Lisa could be heard in the hallway. Lalisa was hurriedly asking the other girl about something, and she was trying to calm her down.

-I swear to God, Ella, if you don't come down in a minute, I'll let you down myself." And you know I'm not kidding.- A loud shout from a woman who sounded from the depths of the house, presumably from the stairs leading to the second floor, made Jisoo swallow nervously and cling closer to Jennie, while the brown-haired girl was amused, recalling her childhood years.

-Don't worry, she's a little noisy and sometimes seems tough, but that's just an appearance.- The girl whispered, kissing Jisoo on the temple.

-Your sister and Rose and their girls are already here, help them get their things out of the car now.- Meanwhile, the woman continued to broadcast. Her voice sounded even louder and closer. She walked past the kitchen, opening the door to her husband's office.- What did you do?- Without changing her intonation, she began to scold her husband, but this time speaking much more quietly, so that after she closed the door behind her, her words were impossible to distinguish.

-It's eight fucking o'clock in the morning.- A sleepy grunt of displeasure was heard even as Ella began to descend to the first floor.

Jennie and Jisoo moved to the exit from the kitchen to see the young woman coming down the stairs at the end of the corridor. Jisoo had seen her just a day ago at the police station, but now her image was strikingly different. In soft indoor tracksuits, a rumpled T-shirt, disheveled and still not fully awake, she looked younger and somehow calmer. However, the whole aura of calm was shattered by her muttering curses and a look full of desire to kill.
