Seven days has been marked off.

"I need to do this."

"So you're telling me you haven't seen her or spoken to her in a week?" Jisoo asks, seeming to be in disbelief. After their so called date, Jennie had believed that a connection was growing between her and the mysterious blonde, but she quickly thought otherwise the moment Lisa suddenly ghosted her.

Jennie has tried a couple of times to contact her but received no word from her. The whole week Jennie couldn't help but feel insecure. She wondered if it was her doing that the Thai has suddenly ignored her without any warning or justification. Sighing in frustration and nodding her head for the 5th time, Jennie replies with annoyance etched into her tone.

"For the last time Jisoo, yes."

She was seated at her usual booth with her friends, Chaeyoung and Jisoo at their favorite old fashioned diner. They had noticed her sour mood and finally decided to confront her on it which Jennie didn't hesitate to oblige.

For the whole week, her head was filled with so many questions that may never be answered which created a heavy feeling in her chest. The blondes silence was slowly beginning to irritate her and all she wanted to do was demand for answers. But how can she if there was absolutely no way for her to contact miss ghoster. Jisoo lets out an annoyed grunt as she continues to let Jennie's words process into her mind.

"I just don't get it. There has to be a good explanation for this." Jisoo gently says, wanting to ease the frustrated girls mind. Chaeyoung feverishly nods, agreeing with Jisoo's statement as she continues to silently eat her fries.

Jennie lightly chuckles at the sight of the quiet chipmunk. You could never have a real conversation with Chaeyoung whenever there's food around. The pink haired girl quickly swallows her food and sheepishly smiles towards Jennie before responding.

"She's right Jen, I mean the way you talk about her it doesn't seem like Lisa is the type of person to ignore anyone without any reason." Jennie sighs and begins to rub her temple, trying to ease the growing pain in her head.

She had to agree with what they were saying, but if she did she would only grow worried for the blonde. If it was an emergency, there would be no way for her to know, which excessively grew the irritation she was already feeling.

"So what if you girls were right and she actually had an emergency? What then? There's literally no way for me to contact her or see her. I don't even know her damn address!" Jennie threw her arms around wildly as she yells out her response, earning a few odd looks from a couple of strangers in the diner. Jisoo and Chaeyoung share a look before shaking their heads. They didn't know what else to say. Jennie sighs and drops ten dollars on the booth before sliding out,

"I'm gonna head out," she says. Jisoo furrows her eyebrows together,

"Where are you going?" Jisoo asks. Chaeyoung frowns, "You didn't even finish the rest of your fries," she says. Jennie sadly chuckles while putting on her jacket,

"You could have it. See you later girls," Jennie says while turning around and leaving the diner. The duo share a look before sighing in defeat. Chaeyoung shrugs while reaching for the fries but freezes as Jisoo had sent a look. She sends a sheepish grin,

"Can't let the fries go to waste," the pink haired girl says while shoving the fries in her mouth. Jisoo just rolls her eyes while muttering incoherent words under her breath before following Jennie entering her car with her eyes. All Jisoo knew she could do was hope for the best.
