My Sweet Devil - JENLISA

Chapter 16 : Unclear

LISA'S POV

I went back to work with a hangover. Last night after drinking and having an intense session with Jennie, we went back to her place. I thought I could finally rest because, honestly, I was this close to falling asleep. As soon as I stepped into the apartment, she jumped on me and kissed me hard as we almost fell. This girl just drew all my energy out of me and I don't know how she remains so active after all what we did a moment ago. 

When I returned home this morning, Yaya and Lia were not there because she had been accompanied by our daughter to school. I took the opportunity to take a shower and wash my clothes because they smelled like alcohol. I had prepared myself mentally that I could see a furious Jisoo coming into my studio asking for explanations and I honestly wouldn't know what to say to her.

I was now in the process of completing my file for my project. As the big day approached day by day, I was eager to present my work to the best photographers who would then be my juries. I made the cover page and placed some photos of Jennie's black and white zoomed body parts interposing them one on top of the other. I wanted this project to be as similar as possible to me, simple and complicated. I went to my small library where all the magazines I had been a photographer were in. I flipped through the pages to admire my successes because sometimes it feels good to say that there are a lot of things we have accomplished. Then I heard a few giggles at my door and I knew exactly who were there.

"Good morning Lisa!" Rosé shouted in a cheerful tone. This girl was always in a good mood even when she was depressed, she could see the good side of things, "I brought you some refreshing natural drinks that will boost you!"

"I don't think she really needs it since she already has her way of regaining her strength." Jisoo says mockingly before closing the door. I pointed look to her praying she wasn't going to reveal the bad secret. 

"Hey Chipmunk, how are you? It's been a long time since we've seen each other. I was getting tired of seeing your girlfriend's ugly face." I set the tone on the ugly word while looking at Jisoo.

"Can you behave like adults for a moment, please? Jisoo, give Lisa the bag of drinks." she handed me a bag containing various bottles of tea, which I imagine was organic tea. I could read some labels that said they were rich in vitamins and minerals. I am a bit skeptical about the effectiveness of these but I will not start arguing with Rosé otherwise she may be offended because according to her, all the things she brings me are of high quality.

"Thanks guys, but you didn't have to."

"Jisoo told me that these days you're rapidly exhausted and since I know it's soon to be the new photographers' project competition, I figured you must be under a lot of stress. So I brought you these organic teas from a village I visited with my parents a few days ago." Rosé explained as if she was trying to sell her products. No wonder their restaurant is doing so well.

"Princess, maybe the villagers work with factories and they claim it's tea they made themselves."

"Impossible because I went to see with my own eyes how they did it." she proudly said, "anyway, I hope we're not disturbing you."

"No, I'm almost done with my project. Aren't you two working today?"I asked and picked one of the bottles out of the bag. I chose the one where it was written refreshing tea - ideal after a hangover, it suited the situation perfectly. I took a sip but I nearly puked, it was awful to drink it. 

"Actually, I'm going to leave now because the seafood delivery guy arrives in an hour, but since I wanted to see you, I thought a few minutes was enough to see how you were doing."
