Jennie's POV


As soon as we finish the shoot, I immediate run away from everyone. I needed to be alone because everything came rushing back to me. Lisa. Us together, meeting her after several years and not able to recognize her. I slumped on my chair once I reached my office; I closed my eyes and grabbed my hair.

I sobbed as familiar pain came back. Why do you have to come back Lisa? Just when I thought I already moved on? My mind asked over and over. I opened my drawer and took out a rectangular box. I was hiding this for a long time. I grabbed the omega choker and stared at the gemstone. Is this fate telling me that it time to give this back to you?

"Jennie!" a loud voice startled me and fixes myself right away. I turned around and see Jisoo unnie panting. Her eyes filled with worry and confusion. "What happened back there?"

"I.." a tear fell from my eyes. She hurriedly pulled me in her arms and caressing my back.

"You can always tell me, Jennie, I'm here for you." She whispered. That made me sobbed more. I was shaking so hard, still not believing everything.

"How can I not recognize her? How can I be stupid when everything about her is familiar?" I cried in her arms. Jisoo moved away and eyed me questioningly.

"I don't understand, what do you mean?"

"Pranpriya Brüschweiler...she's... She's Lisa." I said and sat on the couch to get some support. I feel like I've lost all my strength.

"She's what?! Lisa...that's why I felt comfortable with her a while ago. And the way she looked at---" she shook her head. "Are you okay, Jen?" she continued and sat beside me; holding my hands.

"I'm not ready to face her again, unnie. What will I say to her?" it is true that when I realized she's Lisa, I just don't know what to say, so I did what I think I should, I run away.

"You've moved on right? And so is she, I think. Just act professional when you meet again especially that she has a contract with our company. If you meet outside, just be civil, who knows you can be friends." She advised. I nodded my head in agreement. Jisoo unnie is right, what happened to us, remains in the past. We both have different lives now; she's different now.

We stayed and talk for a little longer; I feel much better now that my sister is here. We heard a knock and the photographer came in. He bowed.

"Ms. Kim, I'll be sending the output of the photo shoot in three days. You may choose which are going to publish on the magazine." He informed.

"Alright, I'll be expecting it then." I said flatly.

"Uhm, Ms. Kim, uhh, Ms. Brüschweiler said to give this to you." He handed me a folded piece of paper. As soon as I get her excused and left. I opened the paper and read what's written.


You owe me a dinner for running away like that. I'll pick you up on Friday 8PM sharp.

"What does it say?" Jisoo asked.

"She wants us to meet, unnie." I said still staring at the handwritten note. She's definitely Lisa, same clean and beautiful handwriting.

"Then go, maybe it's time for you to talk. You've wanted this for years Jen." Yes. I've wanted to talk to her for a long time. But can I handle her presence? Knowing that the woman I loved is right in front of me?

"I guess you're right, unnie." I said not confident in my voice. I sighed heavily. I felt her hold my hands.

"Everything will be okay, Jendeukie." She assured. I nodded and smiled.
