Smile, you're here, with me

Jennie looked back to see Roseanne sitting at the center table of her apartment circle. Jennie smiles as she was surprised to see Rosie again, but something was different, Jennie thinks. As she looks at Rosie, she seems like not the Roseanne she used to know, this Roseanne that's looking right at her now, is somehow sad, like a gloomy weather. Like when she smiles it doesn't reach her eyes. Jennie wonders what happen.

"I do weddings, head shots, baby showers, you know for the money" Roseanne looked at all the pictures Jennie took that's on display at her living room "but I met a girl at a party, a gallery owner, she said she might show my work there so..." Jennie smiles shyly, she hands Rosie a Coke in can.

"That's really cool. How'd you do that?" Rosie pointing to a picture of a couple that's almost kissing, and their back ground was a blurr of lights

"You leave the shutter open. The hard part is staying still, otherwise you're just a blur, like the cars in the background." Rosie just smiles, but not her usual smiles that Jennie was used to

"I'm gonna go, splash some water on my face, so just make yourself at home." Said Jennie, spreading her arms wide, she retreats upstairs.

"Wait, she just landed on your doorstep? honey that's perfect" said Jisoo on the phone. Apparently Jennie called Jisoo to report whats currently happening

"Don't get excited, she lives in New York. I don't even know, why she's here" Jennie stands up in a chair to see herself fully in her mirror, as she checks her outfit

"Jennie, let's not get picky"

"And I couldn't look less sexy" she twist and turns her body to see in the mirror

"Oh shut up. You're gorgeous"

Jennie steps down at the chair, and thinking if she should change her pink sweater

"Has she put the moves on you yet?"

"She's not the type" Jennie said in whisper

"Someone's gonna have seeex" Jisoo sings it as she teased Jennie

"Will you stop it? I've got to go. Wish me luck" Jennie took a peek at the gap from upstairs, to see what Roseanne was doing, she was just sitting at the couch, flipping through some pictures that was at the table.

"You don't need it. Call me later okay??" Jennie hung up the phone

Jennie didn't changed her pink sweater, she went down, offer Rosie some wine which latter gladly accepts

"Thank you" Jennie pours onto Rosie's glass. Jennie being extra clingy to Roseanne as she keeps on leaning her body towards Rosie

"You're welcome" and Jennie's voice extra slutty

"She owned a business, right? Like, selling antiques. Well, she used to work for the mayor's office as an advisor, but she said she didn't like it" Rosie blabs, her hands flailing around

"Wow, two careers already" Said Jennie, her voice is huskier than ever

"Yeah. So I thought she would understand" Rosie leaned forward her elbows rest on her knees as she continues to rant "you know, the kind of work you've got to put in she you're first starting out, but..." Rosie's voice grew weaker and smaller, she shakes her head, and plays with her glass of wine "She said, that she couldn't be number 3 or number 4 on someone's list of priorities." Rosie looked back at Jennie, who is listening quietly, nodding, her chin is propped on her hand, Rosie continues "She said she could be number 2, but not if number 1 was selling diapers." Rosie pouts as she remembers exactly how she and Suzy had that conversation
