missed chance

8 | calling it off

Some might say that the moment you see your fiancé after about a month of being away for each other, a certain longing will be fulfilled in your hearts. Like all the greatness has showered you upmost pleasantries for today and you get to see the person you're longing for. But what if Jennie doesn't feel even an inch of gratitude? What if she's questioning why Chahee is here? And why is she peacefully drinking her morning coffee on the dining, like it's wrong for her to be here.

"Good morning." She said while standing up to give Jennie a much needed morning kiss.

"What are your plans for today?" Jennie asked.

"Nothing much. I was hoping we can spend time before I go back."

"I'm not so sure of that, I have work. I'll be meeting with the team that will handle the photography in Spain."

"Spain?" she asked. Shoot. Jennie forgot to tell her about Spain.

"Oh, well I'll be in Spain. For a shoot."

"How long? With whom?"

"I'm not sure how long, it's a long shooting process."

"Will you be with the company where Lisa works for?"

"How did you even know about that, Chahee. Are you investigating on her?" she asked in disbelief.

"Just answer."

"Yes. And Lisa will be with me in Spain."

"Well isn't that marvelous?" She asked sarcastically.

"I am not having this conversation. Thanks for cooking breakfast but I lost my appetite." Jennie politely said before going back to the bedroom and quickly showered.

Chahee was always the jealous type, but it was bearable when they only talk virtually. Now that she's here, Jennie feels bothered she'll sense something wrong and starts questioning her. Right then, Jennie remembered what Jisoo said, She needs to tell Chahee. But how?

After dressing up, it was almost ten in the morning, good thing the meeting will be two hours from now. She picked her bag up and walked out of the bedroom. She saw her in the coach with her laptop on her lap.

"I'm going." Jennie said without looking at her.

"Okay, take care," she said. But she shouted something just before Jennie could close the condo door, "We'll meet with someone later for the wedding preparations. I'll pick you up."

The mention of wedding creeped up something weird in her. She's getting married to her, is that what she wants?

Jennie shrugged the thought and went to the parking where she drove off to work. Arriving on the fifteen-storey office building, Jennie felt a bit grumpy. She entered the office, not giving a glance on the workers. She was sure some would say her attitude is off right now, but that's the least of what Jennie's mind can cater. When she entered the studio, she saw her manager.

"Good morning, Jen. Bad morning, maybe?"

"Sorry, just not on the mood." Jennie explained.

"How so? Didn't Chahee arrive yesterday? She told me she would."

"Oh, so you knew?"

"Yes. She's been asking about your schedule. It's a surprise I think." Her manager said.

"She's at my condo. And she indeed surprised me last night."

"Then why are you grumpy? Was the one-month-sex-abstinence lacking?" Her manager said which made Jennie's eyes wide.
