Quiet on Set (Jenlisa)

THIRD PERSON POV

"What do you mean by that?" Autumn asked.

"It means.. Lisa is unpredictable, she's unreadable, but now I can see she's doing better."

"Oh.. Are you two best friends?" Autumn asked.

Jennie bit her bottom lip to contain her smile before she glanced at the young Manoban girl.

"I'm not sure what we are. But, I do know I care about her. And, I'll continue to care. For the both of us." Jennie said.

"Well.. Add me to the list." Autumn grinned causing Jennie to chuckle.

"I'm sure you'll love her, just.. Give her sometime to adjust to it all."

"To a new sister?"

"To something good actually happening in her life." Jennie stated.

"Sounds like she's had it rough." The younger girl mumbled.

"Rough can't even describe it." Jennie said as she placed her hand on the door knob.

"Where are we?" Autumn asked before the girl
opened the door.

"My room."

"Why are we going to your room?"

"Because we're looking for Lisa." Jennie chuckled, knowing the girl would be in there.

The brunette then pushed open the door, her fingers immediately found the light switch and flicked it on. Her eyes then landed on the Thai girl sitting on her bed with her knees clutched to her chest and her brown hair falling over her face.

Autumn furrowed her brows and took a step
forward, only to be held hack by the brunette
who shook her head. It was clear to Jennie that
Lisa wasn't ready to have someone touch
her as yet. She needed to be by herself for a few
more seconds before approaching her, especially
when she's that vulnerable.

"Lisa?" Jennie whispered.

"I... I don't want to be in this house right now."

"It's okay, we can go somewhere."

"Please." Lisa whispered.

The brunette gave her a small smile before glancing at Autumn, mentally signaling her to go over there. The younger brown haired girl nodded before slowly approaching her sister.

"I.. Um." Autumn whispered.

Lisa's eyes glanced up to the smaller girl while her brows furrowed, she didn't notice the girl's presence until now.

"I know we don't.. Know each other that well. It's actually the first night we're meeting and everything seems so frustrating. Especially with yo-your parents showing up so suddenly and just harassing yo-"

"They're not my parents." Lisa stated,
causing the girl to furrow her brows.

"What?"

"They're. Not. My. Parents." Lisa gritted before her eyes met Autumn's.

"And they're not yours either."

Autumn's lips parted to speak, but she remained silent. The girl never felt apart of her new family since day one. It's always been her and her alone, just as it has always been with Lisa when she was younger. Autumn was repeating a cycle of Lisa's life and the actress wasn't going to let that happen.

"You should speak up for yourself, you know that?"

"What?" Autumn asked.

"If you're quiet, they have an advantage of doing whatever they want with you. They think you're weak, they think you'll take whatever bullshit they hand you and you can't say one shit about it. But when you're loud, they're threatened." Lisa said.
