Jennie's POV
Lisa stopped talking to me the day we left the event. She wasn't talking too much like how she used to so I asked her what's wrong and she told me that she's just tired. The next day I woke up and she's not there already so I found out that she was mad at me. When I got home that day she texted that she won't go home since she has tons of work. I planned to go visit her at work the next day but to my surprise she bought me breakfast and went back to her old bubbly self. I asked her if she was mad at me but she told me she was just really tired and drained so I didn't bother her about it a lot more. She's back to her old self but something about her seems a bit off. Like she used to be very clingy even if I'm working but it seems like she's less clingy. She always drop me off of work and even wait at the company if I'm having a late meeting. She'll always bring me food during lunch time if I am so busy like she always do since then.
"Lisa doesn't really tell you if she was mad or disappointed about something" Jisoo said while we're having lunch in my office with Jackson and Rosie.
"What did you do tho?" Jackson ask while looking at me
"We attended an event last time with some VIP people and I told her to stick around" I said
"Was she suppose to really go with you?" Rosie ask
"Well.. not really. She told me she'll just drop me off cause she needs to attend something else"
"Was it important for her?" Jackson ask
"I think so... but the point is the event we were is more important "
"You should go talk to her and apologize"Jisoo said
"I didn't even know what I did wrong" I said
"Well please ask yourself my dear sister before everything goes wrong" he said standing up "let's go Kim Jisoo" he said before pulling Jisoo away to work
"I'll go ahead as well.. fix it okay?" Rosie said as she stood up "uhh.. will you still eat these?" She ask pointing at the gimbaps on the table so I just shake my head so she can just take it with her

So I decided to take go to Lisa's workplace since I don't have any works to do anymore. Also I don't know if what I said to Lisa at the event was the one who upset her but I'll just apologize anyway.
I was about to step inside the elevator when i saw Niki come out of it "Jennie" she greeted me so I just nod back to her "can you join me for a cup of coffee?" She ask
"I'm not here for you" I said with a straight face. I was gonna step in again when she said something that pulls me back
"I was just gonna discuss why Lisa's acting differently" I look back at her and she already have a knowing look. She nod her head outside to follow her before she walk out of the building
"Do you need sugar?" She ask while stirring her coffee
"Just go straight to the point " I said while still looking at her
"What did Lisa told you when you're at the event?" She ask. Lisa probably told her where we are
"That she'll meet with someone." I answered
"Do you have an idea who it was?" I looked away and keep my posture on with my arms crossed as I shake my head "he's one of the most respected world class photographer who agreed to help Lisa boost up her name and career on the photography industry" I look back at her not knowing that's how big deal it actually is for Lisa. I cleared my throat to not show any emotion infront of this girl.
"I can still get him to talk to Lisa. I have my connections Niki... don't under estimate me" I said sternly
"And do you think I haven't tried that?" She said "i tried several times but he keeps telling me that if it is Lisa he won't accept it. Do you really know anything Jennie? Have Lisa talked to you?" I just keep silent and just let her talk "Lisa told me that the photographer scolded her. He was pissed that she left him hanging and felt disrespected. He even told Lisa that she will never be successful for acting like that... will Lisa really do that if she weren't doing things for you?" She said with her calm natural voice while still stirring her coffee "lisa even told me she doesn't want to be mad at you cause in the first place she was the one who insisted to take you there. But if I'm not mistaken she also told you about her appointment. Lisa is just a really kind woman that she didnt even point fingers to the one who's really at fault"
"Are you trying to say it is my fault?" I said
"isn't it?" She said making me look away again... to be honest. I really feel bad right now I just don't want Niki to see it. I wanted Lisa to succeed on her craft but I also ruined it. "You're always asking her to do stuff for you but have you really appreciate it enough Jennie? Or have you been repaying her by being a sweet clingy girlfriend? You're both basically grown ups. You can't just be sweet, clingy and loving towards each other just to call it a perfect relationship. You should also know what your partner truely wants. You should be the one encouraging her to push herself towards her goal and not the one who keeps pulling her back to just spend time together for your so called perfect relationship " I can't even speak right now because I seriously have no excuses "when she spent the night in her office.. before I even go home she told me that she doesn't want you to worry about her and I guess she's the one who worry a lot more about you. It's like you thought you're giving a lot of love to Lisa but the truth is what you're giving is not even a quarter of what she have done for you. Have you even thought about that? Or are you enjoying every single moment of her taking care of you and giving you everything you desire while you don't even know that you're not the only thing than can make her happy"
