WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING [JENSOO]

025

A/N: Hello! Happy 1k reads, everyone! I hope all of you continue to support and read this book! As a thank you gift, y'all have gained yourselves another Jensoo moment. Enjoy!

"Mom, I'm home!" Jennie exclaimed to her mother who's scrubbing fresh crabs. Slipping her leather jacket off, she went closer to the elder. "Why did you buy so many crabs?" The younger asked as she went to also grab some gloves and a scrubber. "Mom, I saved that person. The girl that got hurt in my dream. So, as we promised--"

"I never made you a promise. You just assumed that I made a promise" Jennie looked at her and sighed, "Mom, you know how I love writing journals. Even when I slept for an hour as a rookie, I made sure I wrote my journal everyday. I probably wrote ten pages badmouthing my senior reporters. But lately, I can only write three words. 'Same as yesterday.' I can even write it in advance, 'Tomorrow will be the same.'"

Soyeon stopped what she was doing as she listened to her daughter's words. "All the journals from the past year combined are less than the journal from a day when I was working." 

"What's your point?"

Jennie glanced at her mother and smiled, "Mom, I just want today to be a bit more interesting than before. I don't want to waste my days because I'm scared of my dreams." Her mother then turned to look at her, "So you're telling me that you want to go back to work? Even when you died in your dream as a reporter?"

"I won't die! I can change my dream, you know? After meeting Jisoo and Wonwoo, I can change my dreams. See? I changed it today too. I realized this when I changed it." She sighed and looked up, "There's one thing certain about life."

"What?"

"That nothing is certain in life."

Soyeon scoffed and got back on scrubbing the crabs, "You're not here to ask for my permission. You're just here to inform me." And Jennie did the same. "I'm not informing you. I won't go back to work without your permission."

Jisoo walks out of her room, only to be greeted by heir living that is full and surrounded by smoke. She waves her hands to clear out some on her way and she heard Lisa's voice talking. 

"I'm in charge of breakfast. Cook? I'm really good at cooking!" 

The prosecutor heard as she finally reached Lisa who's oblivious to her presence. Jisoo searched for the cause of it, only to find out it was the mackerel Jennie's mother gave her. "Chaeyoung-ah, when you come to Korea on vacation, I'll grill you mackerels. I'm really good at it!"

That's when Jisoo decided to mess it up. 

Smacking Lisa's head, she put her face close to the phone and shouted, "Chaeyoung-ah! She's lying! Do a video call!" Lisa pushed her away and threw the slipper she was wearing at her sister, "Get away from me!"

But of course, Jisoo kept going as she ran.

"THERE'S A FIRE!"

Wonwoo bit on his sandwich sandwich as he looked at his notebook, which is full of information from the recent dreams he, Jisoo and Jennie had. 

While holding a tray, the prosecutor found the officer sitting alone. Smiling, she went over to him and sat in front. "Do you have breakfast here?" Jisoo asked and Wonwoo quickly smiled. "Fancy meeting you here. I burnt my toast so, I decided to have breakfast here. What about you?"

Jisoo laughed at the question, remembering Lisa's horrible cooking skills. "Well, it's somewhat similar."

"By the way, I have a question."
