I got up from the bed and headed for the door, “I can’t listen to any more of this Lisa, I’m sorry.”

“Jennie, please, we need to talk about everything,” she pleaded.

“Why, so we can hurt each other again with our words?”

She put her hand on my face as I backed away. “My illness is tearing us apart. You can’t handle your emotions and neither can I. We just end up hurting each other. I have a question for you and I want you to be totally honest with me, are you trying to save me to erase the guilt you’ve harbored over the years about your ex-girlfriend?”

Fuckity fuck…I couldn’t believe I just asked her that. She stared into my eyes with her cold eyes, like all the love she felt for me had just been erased, as if it never existed.

She closed her eyes. “I think it’s best if you go back to Busan and I stay here.”

She turned around so she didn’t have to look at me. She gave up and it was my fault; I pushed her to this point. Tears streamed down my face as I turned around and walked out the door.

I walked back to the hotel and grabbed my bag. As I was walking out a text from Lisa came through. “My private plane is waiting for you to take you back to Busan. Text Bangchan your location and he will pick you up.”

The heart wrenching pain reared its ugly head again as I didn’t respond back. I called Bangchan and within 5 minutes he was at the hotel picking me up. I slid in the backseat. He turned around and looked at me.

“I’m sorry Miss Kim, but I’m going to tell you what I told Mrs. Manoban, you two are the most stubborn people on the face of this earth and you couldn’t be more perfect for each other.”

I gave a small smile. “We are a disaster together.”

He pulled up to the private landing strip where Lisas plane was waiting for me. She opened the door and helped me with my bags.

“Do not let your fear sabotage your relationship with Mrs. Manoban, Jennie. It’s not fair to you or to her.” I kissed him on the cheek and entered the plane.

“Jennie,” Sehun smiled as he met me outside with a big hug. “How are you, we missed you?” He knew the minute he saw the sadness in my eyes things were bad. “Not again” he frowned. He walked me upstairs to my apartment. Jisoo was calling so Sehun went back downstairs.

“Hi Jisoo,” I said.

“What the fuck Jen? What is going on with you two? And why didn’t you call me?”

“I was going to. I wanted to get back to Busan first. I’m sorry Jisoo I just can’t talk about it right now. How did you know?”

She sighed, “I went to Lisas place to give you something and she went off on a tangent about you. I looked over and that driver of her was escorting some chick out as she was holding her mouth yelling something about you and telling Lisa never to speak to her again. She told me you punched her, is that true?”

“Yeah, I did punch that bitch square in the jaw and she deserved it.”

“That’s my girl,” Jisoo shouted. “Make things right with Lisa, Jen. She loves you, and you love her and sometimes people do stupid stuff.”

“I know Jisoo, but I’m not sure we’re good together as long as I’m sick.”

“Jen, you’re overthinking things again. You don’t want things to be right because you’re scared and I get that, but she’s scared to, and it seems to me that you two don’t get that.”

“It seems like every day I’m finding out something new about her and it’s driving me crazy Jisoo.”

“I understand that Jen, but you need to realize that maybe she keeps some things from you because she doesn’t want to hurt you.”
