Having met Lisa downstairs, Jennie didn't tell yet the reason why she decided to make a general gathering with Taehyung. The girls on the way stopped at the store that was not far from the condo, bought a couple of beers and snacks for it, and made an order of Thai noodles. By the time they reached home, the order would arrive on time.

Forty minutes later, Jennie, Taehyung, and Lisa were sitting at the girl's apartment and, having had a hearty meal, were ready for their friend to lay out the main intrigue of the day for them.

Jennie took a few sips of beer and jumped up from the couch and started pacing back and forth in front of the TV, so that Lisa and Taehyung had to keep their eyes on her friend, who was walking like a pendulum.

-Why aren't you talking?- Lisa starts squirming on the couch, climbing fully onto it with her legs.

The brown-haired girl stops, kneads her neck, then shakes out her hands and takes a couple of deep breaths. After looking at the ceiling for a couple of seconds, the girl rests her arms at her sides, and her friends are already prepared for some terrible news. Taehyung even seems to be squeezed into the couch, preparing to hear some shocking content. Kim takes another breath and blurts out:

-I saw Rose kissing a girl at the bar....

Immediately there was silence. All Taehyung could mumble was: "Huh?". Lisa just opened her mouth, and then closed it with her palm.

-Noooo!- The girl said in shock, pointing her finger in Jennie's direction. - God, I told you!

Lisa continues to exclaim and a smile appeared on her face and the girl even started laughing as she watched the expression on Jennie's face.

-Wait.- Taehyung looked at Lisa sitting next to him and Kim standing across from him.- Rose? Who's that? Your art director?

Jennie sighs tiredly and sits down on the table directly across from her friends, covering her face with her hands.

-Yes!- Lisa nods excitedly several times and, sitting down on the couch, returns to the conversation about Rose.- Tell me! In detail. I deserve it!

The brown-haired girl straightens up and, resting her palms on her knees, kneads her neck again. Then, determined, she says:

-God, it's so horrible, you have no idea. - The girl says and gets up from the table and starts walking again. - I've been thinking about it for days and I think I'm going crazy. I'm begging you, tell me I'm making this up, okay? Just let me know that I'm making it all up and it will pass soon.

Taehyung frowns, seemingly still digesting the information, and Lisa smiles slyly, but covers her eyes and nods blissfully and watches her friend again, who is clearly starting to panic.

-Oh, don't worry about it.- Lisa smirks, receiving only a scornful look from her friend.

Kim sighs, but continues the story further:

-It all started when Taehyung and I were at a gay bar on Saturday. We were having drinks, and everything was cool, but then I saw Rose on the other side of the bar with some girl...- Kim stopped talking, waving her hand in a circle as if trying to find the words.

-Fuck!- Lisa couldn't contain her laughter, covering her face with her palms as if she were the one who'd seen Rose with the girl.- Fuck, I can imagine your face!

-Is that why you've been so pale all evening?- Snapping his fingers and pointing at the girl, Taehyung finally guessed.- Damn, there was something wrong with her all evening.
