The night Seoul crowned its newest fashion queen was also the night two hearts broke without warning. Inside the penthouse suite of K-House, the city glittered beneath Jennie Kim's heels. her smile precise - everything about her immaculate except the tremor in her voice when she whispered, "Tell me it's not true." Lisa didn't answer. She stood by the window, shoulders soaked from the rain, eyes carrying a kind of silence that begged to be believed. "It wasn't what you think," she said finally, low and breaking. "Jennie, please-" "Don't." Jennie's voice cut through the room like a blade. "You think I'll stand here and pretend you didn't lie to me? That you didn't use me to get ahead?" Lisa's jaw clenched. "You really think so little of me." "I think exactly what you showed me." Jennie's words were cruel, but her fingers trembled as they gripped the wine glass. "You disappeared in the middle of my show, Lisa. You knew how much tonight meant. And you were with her." Lisa stepped forward. "She's a client, Jennie! I told you-" "Enough!" The glass shattered against the floor. Wine bled into the marble like spilled blood. Lisa froze. For a heartbeat, there was only the sound of rain and Jennie's ragged breathing. Then came the whisper, soft but fatal: "Leave. Tonight. I don't want to see you again." Lisa's throat closed. "You don't mean that." Jennie met her eyes - the same eyes she'd once kissed beneath studio lights, the same eyes she used to call home - and said it anyway. "I do." For a moment, neither moved. Then Lisa picked up her coat, silent tears caught in the reflection of the window, and walked toward the door. She stopped once, hand on the handle. "If I leave now," she said, "I won't come back." Jennie didn't answer. Pride was louder than love. The door closed. ⸻ Seven years later, she'll see those eyes again. And everything she buried will rise to the surface.

Before BLACKPINK became global icons, Lisa and Jennie were two girls with big dreams who found each other in the tough world of K-pop training at YG Entertainment. Their connection was instant, and as their friendship deepened, so did their feelings for one another. However, the pressures of training, competition, and the need to debut as a group kept their love hidden. As BLACKPINK's fame grew, so did the complexity of their relationship. Behind their public personas as teammates and idols, Lisa and Jennie shared a secret bond, full of quiet moments and stolen kisses.

Just a heads-up-sorry if the story makes your fave look bad, it's just how the plot went. If it's not your thing, totally okay to skip it. And let's keep things chill in the comments-too much negativity and I might take it down. Can't really change that part without rewriting half the story. Thanks for understanding! 💛 ⚠Lisa GIP!⚠

En un mundo donde la venganza y el rencor pueden consumirnos, hay historias que nos recuerdan que incluso en las circunstancias más oscuras, el amor puede florecer.

Jennie Kim is a no-nonsense, high-powered CEO of a luxury lifestyle brand. Known for her icy demeanor and impeccable standards, she runs her company with precision and commands respect from everyone around her. Her employees admire her brilliance but tiptoe around her temper-except for her newly hired personal assistant, Lisa Manoban. Lisa is everything Jennie's usual assistants aren't: she's casual, cheerful, and sometimes a little too comfortable breaking Jennie's strict rules. Initially, Jennie is annoyed by Lisa's unconventional approach, especially when Lisa insists on bringing her "relaxing tea" instead of coffee or suggesting ridiculous ideas during meetings just to "lighten the mood." Despite her exasperation, Jennie can't deny that Lisa is oddly efficient, always managing to get things done in her own chaotic way. As the days pass, Jennie starts to feel something she hasn't felt in years-she enjoys Lisa's company. But Jennie's growing possessiveness becomes evident when Lisa's charm attracts attention from coworkers and clients alike. Jennie finds herself in situations where she has to remind others-and herself-that Lisa is her assistant, and no one else has the right to monopolize her time.

Lisa stared at the the second floor and her eyes were fixed on the glass windows. To her surprise, she saw someone is watching her behind the window. Even though the lights in the room is dim, but her vision is not wrong, when the moonlight passed through the room, she clearly saw that someone is there. The person's face isn't very clear, but she knew it is a girl. For a mere second they stared at each other before then the girl disappeared behind the curtain.

( On revision ) Lalisa Manoban had her life mapped out: gain real-world business experience before taking over her father's conglomerate. When she lands a job as the personal secretary to Jennie Kim, the sharpest and most feared CEO in the industry, she thinks she's ready for the challenge. Jennie is ruthless, cold, and unrelenting-traits that earned her the nickname "The Ice Queen of Korea." From day one, Jennie sees Lisa as just another pampered heiress who won't last. Lisa, determined to prove herself, works tirelessly to break through Jennie's impossible standards, only to find that the CEO's icy exterior hides much more than a ruthless businesswoman. The line between professional rivalry and deep attraction begins to blur, but love has no place in the cutthroat corporate world...or does it? Not Gip ... - All photos ctto -

"If you still want to be with me, I'll stay by your side..." Lisa firmly said, her voice steady but heavy with unspoken emotions, as if she were standing on the precipice of a life-altering decision. Jennie blinked, caught off guard. Her breath hitched in her throat, and she struggled to gather her thoughts. "H-Huh?" she stammered, a whirlwind of nerves churning inside her. "Do you still have feelings for me?" Lisa asked, her gaze piercing through Jennie with an honesty that left no room for evasion. "W-What?" "Do you still like me, Jennie?" In that moment, time seemed to stand still. Jennie's heart raced, each beat echoing in her ears like a distant drum. Fear and hope collided within her, creating a tempest of emotion. After a moment that felt like an eternity, she nodded, breathless. "Yes." Lisa held her gaze, the silence stretching between them as if the weight of their shared history hung in the air. Finally, she spoke, her tone resolute. "I regret it, Jennie..." "What do you mean?" Jennie's confusion deepened. ...I regret the time we've wasted apart... "Let's be together," Lisa declared, her voice unwavering. "I don't need you to do anything. I don't need you to promise me forever or to stand by me without fail. If the day comes when you want to leave me...when you want to walk away, then let's part ways. But right now, at this moment, let's choose to be together." After ten long years of searching and thousands of miles of being alone, it turns out... ...the only thing Lisa truly wanted was to be with Jennie. ••• This is merely an adaptation.
