*phone ringing*

Jennie wakes up groggily as she tries to locate her phone. After a few moments, she had finally found it and answered the call.

Jennie: Hello?

Jisoo: Jennie? It's Jisoo.

At the sound of Jisoo's voice, Jennie immediately sits up from the bed, her tiredness already forgotten.

Jennie: H-hey.

There was a slight pause on the other line in which Jennie waited for the older girl to reply.

Jisoo: So listen Jennie-ah... there's been some more complications with the project. I'm gonna have to stay here for another month.

Jennie: W-what?

Jisoo heaves out a sigh.

Jisoo: I'm sorry Jen. I wanted to get back to you as soon as possible, but I can't at the moment.

Jennie: But why another month? That... that's so long.

Jisoo: I know, but I have to. I'm sorry Jennie-ah.

Jennie took a moment to process everything in her mind. Another month without Jisoo. Why did the world have to be so cruel?

Jennie: It's alright Jisoo. I understand.

Jisoo: Will you be okay?

Jennie: Of course.

Jisoo: Remember to take care of yourself alright?

Jennie: I will. And... and the same goes to you too.

Jisoo: Hmm.

Another pause.

Jennie: How have you been? Are you eating well? Sleeping well?

Jisoo: Everything is fine. I'm fine. What about you? Does your leg still hurt?

Jennie: Not really. I'm getting used to it now.

Jisoo: Don't walk around too much on it. You might injure yourself again.

Jennie: Hmm.

Jisoo: I gotta go now Jen.

Jennie: Yeah, Okay.

Jisoo: Take care, okay?

Jennie: You too...

Jisoo stays silent, not yet wanting to say goodbye.

Jennie: So um, I'll see you soon then?

Jisoo: I'll see you soon then.

"I still think it's still a little early for you to leave Unnie."

Jisoo turns to look at Chaeyoung for the 20th time that morning.
