LISA

The fuck?

My head is spinning. Not because of my sickness, but anger. I know I don't have any reason to get annoyed with the fact that Kai knows Jennie, or she just agrees to his invitation even though I am sure he has forgotten because he didn't talk about it until Jennie called him back. And, why did she have to ask him?

If she wants to have dinner, she can tell me or something. Jisoo is her friend, and she doesn't need to go with a friend she hasn't met for a long time. It must be uncomfortable for her, right?

How about you? My mind is trying to reason out, but I don't give a fuck about it.

When Jennie turns back, looking at me. My anger explodes, "Happy?"

She scowls, but I continue. I can't seem to shut my mouth up nowadays. "I can't believe you are that easy. I mean you just meet him, and you decide to go out with him."

She bites her bottom lip before literally yelling at me, "Easy?!! Can't you find another word that is, maybe more considerate than this? I have already told you that we have known each other for a long time, and you don't have to worry about it because as I know, you're just my boss."

My chest tightens at her words, but I ignore it. "Well, I am just your boss who worries about your safeness than others do," I say, walking away, leaving her standing there.

"Lisa," She calls, but I don't have the feeling to talk to her anymore. I am afraid that I could do something that I may regret if I stay there a second more.

Unfortunately, she doesn't know my intention of walking away as she follows me to my office and closes the door behind her. "What's wrong with you? You can't just get angry every time I talk to people around me or going out with them. It's not fair for me." Both her hands fly on her hips.

"Just leave!" I sit on my chair, opening my laptop and stare at the screen.

"No, if you don't tell me why you always act like that because I am not the person who deserves to be blamed all the time when I don't really do anything wrong." She shouts as if she were afraid that I couldn't hear her in this office with only her and me.

"I just can't believe that you are that easy to men." Fuck! Easy again.

My mouth can't seem to shut when I get furious, and that's why I came here to calm down, and she followed me means it will be worse for both of us. NO! for me!

"WHAT?! I can't believe what I was hearing. Is something really wrong with you, Lisa? Maybe, fever or severe cold this morning? As I remember, I only go out with men I have known." She scowls while shouting to my face. Her gaze stays on mine. She looks like she wants to kill someone here. I need to say something, but my mind refuses to find words that are helpful.

It says, otherwise. "Men, you know? They are still men, aren't they? I just care about your safety here."

She seems to tense a little before recovering. "Why?"

"Huh?" I ask in confusion before she adds, "Why do you care, Lisa?"

"Tell me," She comes in another step. Her voice, her body, her eyes, and everything seem too familiar to me that my head starts to spin, but I shake my head to brush it off, only to double the pain in my head.

"Ouhhhhh," I hiss, holding my head with both hands.

"Lisa," She bolts towards me as my vision blurs.

"LISA!!" I hear her shouting my name, and her cheeks burn with tears before I pass out.

I wake up due to the sobbing sound beside me, but I can't even open my eyes because of too much exhaustion in my body.
