Lisa's POV

"Do you think your mom will like this?" I asked her as I showed her the bouquet of flowers I bought before picking her up from school.

"You are too anxious, for sure even if you give just a leaf to mom, she will be very happy." she looks so sure of what she is saying which made me smile, i put the bouquet of flower at the backseat and I just drove home.

Hyunji messaged  to inform me that the conversation between Jennie, and her soon-to-be ex-husband went well, so I was relieved the rest of the day.

God knows how anxious I was a while ago.


After I parked the car, Jessie immediately got out and ran inside the house, she was so excited to see her mom and to play with love. I carefully picked up the bouquet of flowers for Jennie, praying that she's not mad at me.

I already knew that she was annoyed with me earlier because my message to her was consistent, and i know that she doesn't like the feeling that i don't trust her.

"go clean yourself, what did you do at school why are you dirty, huh?." She asked her daughter who didn't bother herself to answer and immediately ran to her room and my dog followed her .

"scrub your body properly Jessie." She shouted, I leaned against the door while staring at her.

"I will mom."  Jessie shout back.

"Hi!" I smiled at her while handing the flower .

"Wow, what is this for?" She took it  and kissed me on the cheek before smelling the flower. " What's so special today huh?"  She smile.

"Every day is special when I'm with you, you know that." I said casually.

" you're such a sweet talker, hope you also know that. " she rolled her eyes before turning her back on me.

I hugged her  from behind and smelled the crook of her neck.

" I'm sorry about earlier, i'm just so worried about you."  I mumbled.

She broke the hug and faced me.

" I understand, but next time all you need to do is to trust me."  She kissed me before she walked to the living room.

She put the flowers on the table.
" These flowers are so beautiful, I'll arrange them later, can you please give me a crystal vase that I asked you to keep last time?"  She asked one of our helpers.

"How is it talking to him?" I asked.

She faced me again and caressed my cheek.

"he agreed." she said calmly.

but why does she look so upset? I frowned.

"Is there anything wrong?" God I'm nervous.

"Nothing, it's just, I found out that I was hurting him without knowing it, in fact I'm guilty, but there's nothing I can do, I can't force myself to love him and I can't be with someone who doesn't know how to accept that his own child is different." she shrugged.

She told me everything including that he kissed her.

I want to be upset about it because she promised me that she won't allow him to kiss her, but I don't want to add to the weight she's feeling right now.
