"aaliyah-"
"i don't wanna talk about it hoseok." i said as i went to my room.
"but aaliyah-"
"please hoseok, i'm serious." i gave him one last look before shutting my door.
hoseok's pov
i was shocked at how she reacted to what heather was saying. why did it make her so angry? it couldn't be because she...felt something? no, that couldn't be it.
i wanted to tell her that nothing ever happened between me and heather, i was told to never, ever, mess with turner. no matter how needy i was, i never went to heather.
i was scared though, i thought she was actually going to pull the trigger. it was badass to see her react that quickly though.
i just needed to give her time to cool off before talking to her.

hours passed and she never once left her room, only to use the bathroom and maybe get some food. but whenever she saw me she didn't speak to me or acknowledge me, so i let her be.
i pulled out my phone, going to my contacts.
"hello?"
"hey jenna, i need you to come by the house today. something happened today and i think aaliyah would like to have some dessert made by you." i said.
"oh of course mr. jung. i will be right over."
"thank you jenna." i pulled the phone away from my ear and sighed.
i got up from the couch, running my fingers through my hair as i poured myself a glass of whiskey. the house was silent, it sounded empty.
this house was beautiful, big, any person's dream house was mine. this house was big for just me and aaliyah. i felt like jay gatsby, alone and waiting for my girl to walk through the door.
just like daisy, aaliyah brought life to this empty house. and she made me, jay gastby, happy. except, aaliyah doesn't have another husband she's cheating on.
aaliyah's pov
i sighed as i stared at the ceiling, my body already sunk into my mattress.
after hours of thinking about today, i've realized something, on why i got so angry by heather's words.
i've crossed paths with heather before, like my dad and turner, we made petty and insulting remarks to each other all the time. her words never affected me until today.
hearing her say those things about hoseok..i don't know why but it just made me so angry, i was completely enraged.
out of all the girls he's hooked up, he did it with her. did he actually do it with her? was she lying? i was even afraid to ask him, i couldn't show that i care that much...
i rubbed my temples stressfully, i didn't know what to do. i didn't even know what to think.
"aaliyah? can i come in?" hoseok asked from the other side of the door. i sat up from my bed and sighed, "yeah."
his eyes turned into small crescents as he saw me, "come downstairs real quick." he said.
"why?"
"we didn't have dessert after our dinner."
i furrowed my eyebrows and stood up from my bed, hoseok followed me as i walked to the kitchen.
my eyes lit up as i saw creme brûlée, cheesecake, and chocolate covered strawberries on the island.
"m-my favorite desserts?" i smiled.
"all made by jenna. unfortunately she couldn't stay long again." he smiled back.
i let out a small laugh as i sat down and began eating away.
