Second Chance

153.Where's your car?

Lisa walks out of the meeting room. She just finished her last meeting about De L'amour's winter fashion. Bambam didn't attend the meeting because she had asked him to do something for her.

Entering her office, she sits behind her desk and takes out a sketch book and pen. Flipping the pages until she came to a blank page, she starts doodling sketches to add to the new designs in her head.

*ring ring*

She looks at her phone; Lee Rosè.

Seeing the name, Lisa felt her heart tighten. She still hasn't told anyone from City Z about Jungkook....

Reaching for her phone, she stood up and walks to her floor to ceiling window. She lower head and she looks at the name. Taking a deep breath, she answers the call.

"Rosè."

["Mami!! Do you not miss me at all? How come you haven't called me? Hm? Hm?"]

Hearing the cheerful voice of her best friend, Lisa smiles a smile that didn't reach her eyes. She did miss everyone back in City Z. But the reason why she hasn't called, is because she doesn't know how to tell Rosè about Jungkook. She was hoping to say it when she gets the chance to visit, but.... she knows, it was either now or never.

Taking a deep breath again, she steady herself, and spoke the words.

"Rosè, if I tell you that I'm seeing someone, will you hate me?"

["...."]

"Rosè?"

["You dare to betray my oppa?!! Hm? If you do, I will not be your friend anymore."]

"..."

["Hahah, I was just kidding."]

"....."

["Hmm.... You know.. I always hoped you'd be my sister-in-law. I hoped that you, me and oppa would be one family..."]

Lisa didn't say a word. She didn't know what say to Rosè. It was really hard telling her ex-fiancé's sister that she found someone... someone who made her happy...

From the other line, Rosè's voice continues...

["I know oppa will want to see you happy. Your smile meant everything to him and he wouldn't want to see you live in grief forever. Neither do I... Mami, if you're happy, then that's all that matters."]

Hearing those thoughtful words, Lisa's heart tightens before it turns soft. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted from her shoulders.

["It's been three years since oppa left this world. It's time you moved on too. Don't let anything stop you from finding your own happiness. Not me, not Baekhyun or anyone. Your happiness is yours and it counts."]

Lisa's hand on the phone tightens and her lips tremble. She was happy to hear Rosè's encouraging words. Especially since Rosè is Shin's only family.

"Thank you, Rosè."

["So.... tell me, who is this man? How did you two meet? Is he nice to you? Details. Give me the details."]

Lisa's lip curls upward hearing her best friend's excited voice. Even if they were only talking on the phone, she knows that Rosè was genuinely happy for her. She told Rosè everything. From her and Jungkook's first encounter to their relationship now. She didn't leave anything out. Except the parts about their shameless acts.

However, she still needs to tell her Yeye, Hyunjin and the members of FAITH about her and Jungkook's relationship. She doesn't know if they'll react like Rosè, but she needs to tell them soon.

As their conversation continue, they laughed and talked about everything that's been happening to them.

Outside Lisa's office, Bambam stood in front of the door, not daring to go inside. His hand that was in midair about to knock on the door, slowly lowers. He turns around and walks to his office. Sitting down, he takes a deep breath. He had heard everything Lisa said. It can only mean, she has told Rosè about Jungkook.

Like a proud father, he smiles. He is happy that his boss found her new happiness. It means the world to him to see his boss happy. Bambam knows that behind that smile of Lisa's was nothing but a facade. She didn't want everyone to worry about her, so she hides her sorrow behind her smile.

However, he can see the change ever since she met Jungkook. The man may be cold and ruthless like the world put him to be, but Bambam knows the man is sincere towards Lisa.

As his mind continues it thoughts, Lisa's angelic voice suddenly sounds from the door.

"Bambam, you're back already?"

Looking up, he smiles at his beautiful boss, "Mm. I got everything needed."

"Lets go, I want to visit Hyunjin and Bangchan."

"Me too? Where's your car?"

"Jungkook has it."

"..."

—————

Currently, at Jeon Corps, Kim Lalisa and Jungkook's relationship was still the hot topic. It didn't take long before all the men agreed that Jeon Corps beauty can only belong to their future lady boss. Sana was nothing in comparison to Kim Lalisa.

Ever since Sana was embarrassed, she didn't leave her office at all. She locked herself in, not wanting to show her face.

"Kim Lalisa. Just you wait. I will definitely get rid of you."

She spoke through her gritted teeth. Holding a pen in her hand, she stabs into a printed picture of Lisa on her desk.

*knock knock*

"Miss Sana?"

Hearing Yujin's voice, Sana quickly crumbles the picture of Lisa and toss it in the trash bin. She smiles and welcomes her assistant.

"Wanlin, What is it?"

Yujin enters and sets a folder on Sana's desk, "These are the blueprints you asked for."

"Mm. Thank you." She pretends to look hesitantly at Yujin, then asks, "Is the meeting with Cha International still taking place?"

Not thinking much, Yujin answers, "No, it just ended."

Hearing this, Sana's heart leaps excitedly. She nods her head, "Mm. You can leave."

The moment the door to her office closed, she takes out her make up bag and retouch her makeup. After applying her red lipstick, she stands up and walks to the mirror in her office. Fixing her clothes and adding more exposure to her body, she smiles in satisfaction. Without grabbing any documents like usual, she leaves her office.
