Jennie's POV

When I got home and Lisa and Jessie weren't here, I immediately called Lisa because i'm so worried and I breathed a sigh of relief when I found out that they were on their way.

I took a shower to relax my body because of the tiring day of looking for a job.

Since I graduated from college nine years ago, I just looked for a job now because Taehyung, doesn't want to let me out of the house and most especially he doesn't want me to work, so now in my 30's and I don't have any work experience, companies are having second thoughts about giving me the job position I am applying for.

I'm desperate to find a job because I don't want to be a burden to Lisa, I know that she's willing to support me in my daughter but i don't want to abuse her kindness . She offered me a job but I turned it down because I want to have a job that I worked hard for but now, it seems I have no choice but to accept her offer.

I was drying my hair when my phone suddenly rang and I took a deep breath when I saw that Taehyung was calling.

"Hi!" I greeted him nonchalantly.

I was planning to go to see him tomorrow to talk about the divorce, I was supposed to call him later to inform him that I will visit his office but he called me first

" your daughter almost ruined my business deal, can you tell her to learn to ignore me."  He sounds mad and  didn't let me react and hung up the call.

What happened? what did he do to his daughter? I couldn't help but think badly because of the fear that he might have embarrassed Jessie.

I know Taehyung, I know that he can't embarrass Jessie in public especially in front of his business partners.

he cares too much about his good image.

I wonder how he will react when everyone finds out about what he did to his daughter.

I'm worried about my daughter, as an 8 year old kid, Jessie wants her father to give her attention even though she knows that he always ignores her and every time he does that, Jessie ends up crying because her father yells at her.

I didn't finish drying my hair so when I heard the horn of Lisa's car, I immediately went down to meet them because I was so worried about my daughter, but I was shocked to see her laughing because Love, Lisa's dog was welcoming her.

"hey! I know you miss me and I miss you too." She hugged Lisa' s dog.

What happened? I know my daughter, I know if she hides her emotions and now I know that she is genuinely happy.

"Hi mom!" she snapped me out of my thoughts.

She looks fine and happy.

She tiptoed to kiss me on the lips before hugging me.

" are you okay?" I asked her worriedly.

"yup I'm fine mom, why?" She asked confused.

" your dad called me and he"

" mom please don't worry, look at me do I look bothered by what happened?" I shook my head.

Lisa came in with a bag of food and ice cream. "thanks to Lali." my daughter said, looking at Lisa with a smile.

what did Lisa do? and what did I hear my daughter call Lisa again?

"Can we eat now, I'm hungry." Lis said when she noticed my confusion.

"Mom, I can do it myself." She keeps on complaining as I put lotion on her arms and immediately put on her pajamas.

It's just upsetting that she's getting uncomfortable that I've been dressing her since she turned eight, which means she's grown and I don't want that to happen.

"I want to do it, so let Mommy do it" I kissed her. " I love you sweetheart, if only I could fill with love the love you want from your dad." I caressed her cheek lovingly.

She also caressed my cheek and kissed me many times on the lips. "I'm okay mommy. Stop worrying yourself. I cried earlier when dad ignored me again, but when Lali took me to the playground and she played with me, I realized that I don't need dad's attention to be happy." She smiled

I couldn't help but smile knowing that she was getting close to Lisa, she even gave her a nickname.

"I thought you didn't want to go to the playground before because the first time I took you, you didn't want to go back."

"I like, I always imagined that I was playing in the playground but when you brought me, Dad scolded me so I always said that I don't want to." she looked down. "I didn't tell you because I don't want you two to fight" she added.

" sorry honey, I promise from now on we will make good memories of you and me."

"And Lali." She added.

"You're getting close to her." I took the comb and combed her hair.

" she's annoying sometimes but I'm happy to be with her and she lets me play with her dog." she mumbled softly.

"I'm happy to know that the two most important people in my life are getting close to each other."

"If you and dad are divorced, will you marry Lali, mommy?" I giggled at what she said.

"That's unlikely to happen, honey, because Lisa and I's friendship is endless." I'm not sure but I think Lisa and I will just work as friends.

"If you're worried about me, Lali is okay with me, if there's anyone I want for you, it's Lali, mommy, because I know she'll take care of you." She said seriously.

"we can take care of each other even if we are just friends honey and let's not talk about it anymore let's go to sleep." i commanded and she pouted and crawled onto the bed.

"mommy why Lali's penis so big and why is it looks so different from ."

" yahhhhh lets not talk about it, go to sleep." I cut her off.

I know that at her age she is confused and as a mother I have to make her understand about the things that are bothering her but I don't want to talk about Lisa's thing, I don't know but I feel uncomfortable to discuss.

"why? And why are you blushing mommy?"

Jesus, why all of a sudden she's talking about penis ? I know Lisa has a dick but I've never seen it.

"Go to sleep, good night." I said sternly. I kissed her and fixed the duvet to cover her body.

"Okay, good night mommy. I love you" she said sweetly.

"I love you so much." I smiled at her and started patting her butt and hummed a song to make her sleep.

She nuzzled her head into my neck while she rested one of her palms on my tummy, this has been her habit since she was a baby, but now she doesn't put her hand inside my clothes anymore, she just touches it from the outside.

I laid her down properly on her bed and stared at her with tears in my eyes.

My baby is not a baby anymore. I know that what she is going through is difficult but I believe that she will be able to handle it, I hope that Lisa will help her.
