Eyes With Fine Lies

fin.

Kim Jichu or more widely known as BLACKPINK Jisoo, is loved by fans, males and females alike. But Jisoo's always been in love with Jennie as Jichu's always been in love with Jendeuk. All Jisoo given to all of Jennie, onstage or not, wanted or not.

She knows Jennie's affection is directed towards a certain thai. Poor Jisoo can only feel jealous and broken by this fact, hiding all the pain behind a mask. A mask she puts up whenever she sees the sweetness that is jenlisa.

Always smiling. Happy, sweet, gentle Jisoo.

Of course, just like a typical fool of a lover, she first ignored the obvious moves Jennie were doing. She thought maybe they're just that close cause they can both speak English and share their interests as rapper line. She tried to make sense of their closeness in whatever way she can with tricking her mind. Lying to her own self about the obvious love brewing between the two. But the lies she tells herself soon had to end.

It's the evening of Jennie's birthday and they were all given the blessing of being able to go home early to get some good rest and alone time after eating dinner.

"Chaeyoung-ah, I don't know whether I'd get rejected or not but tonight I will confess to Jennie. I want to tell her how special she is to me. I want her to see me too."

Her face shows how serious she is but Chaeyoung heard the fear and anxiety in her voice.

"Are you sure about this Jisoo-unnie? I know you had a hard time deciding this but maybe you should think about it for a while more. And also you said you think she likes Lisa.."

"Yeah but, if not now I don't know when I'd be able to have the courage again."

"But unnie maybe yo--"

"I'm sorry Chaeyoung but I already made up my mind."

Chaeyoung can only sigh in defeat. Sad about the events that are about to unfold that evening.

"Okay unnie, good luck. When you need me, you can come running to my room."

"Thank you Chaeyoungie."

When Jisoo was about to knock on Jennie's door she heard voices inside, the cat-eyed girl isn't alone in her room.

Why do I have to be so unlucky?

She opened the door by a few inches to peek and sees Lisa holding Jennie's hands. She was about to close the door when she heard Lisa

"I love you, Jennie-unnie."

Jisoo came to a halt. Her heart starts to beat faster, heavier, tighter. The dread suddenly falling upon her. She's too late.

She knows Jennie has feelings for Lisa. She sees the way Jennie keeps her eyes on the thai, always smiling whenever Lisa does, clinging on to her a lot even though she often says the younger is annoying. Jisoo knows. Jisoo sees. Because Jisoo has always been there. Observing, protecting, loving Jennie from a distance that's so close yet so far. And here she is. Standing in front of Jennie's room, holding her breath, hoping for a miracle, wishing that this is a dream. Somehow, she knew this would happen soon which is why she planned to confess yet again Lisa beat her to it.

The perfect Lisa-- Her non-biological sister, her member, her rival.

Jisoo tightens her grip on the doorknob as she hears Jennie confess back. She runs away, hand to her mouth afraid her sobs would be heard. Unknown to Jisoo one of the girls inside the room broke down a few seconds later. That night no one slept in Lisa and Jisoo's room.

Lisa catches Jennie just before she falls to the ground. Settling her to the bed, Jennie still won't stop crying. Holding tight on Lisa's shirt, crying her eyes out on the thai's arms. They stay like that for a few minutes with Lisa's coos to try to calm Jennie. Her sobs died down and soon enough she's just.. staring blankly.
