The crisis with Jinwoo over, Jennie was back on site. Jisoo would watch her from a distance.

Jennie was putting this together in her head. Jisoo could tell by the way she tapped her pencil at her lips before writing something down on paper and effortlessly guiding Bobby and Yeji.

Why was she still hiding it from me? That question nagged at Jisoo more and more.

She approached the unit as Jennie was instructing Bobby on what she wanted done in the kitchen.

"Looks good," Jisoo said, startling her.

"Jisoo, I didn't hear you."

Jisoo stepped closer. Looking down into her eyes, "Have you worked out that meeting with the designer yet?"

Jennie thought she'd forgotten all about that. Jisoo hadn't brought it up.

"Jisoo, you can obviously see the designer knows what she's doing. Why on earth do you still want to meet?"

"Because now that I see what she can do, I'm curious."

"Curious?"

There was that nervous tone again. Jisoo smiled.

"Yeah. She has to be a genius if she's able to relay all she wants to do through you. And yet, she's not interested in checking out her work? Seems rather odd."

"She's been busy."

Jisoo gave her that look that told Jennie she wasn't buying it.

"Jennie, I build buildings. There is no way I wouldn't want to see them raised along the way."

"Designers aren't architects," Jennie tried.

"Sure they are. We both create. Something that starts out as an idea, makes its way to paper, then computer, to physically putting it all together."

"After the accident, do you really think she'd want to chance coming here?"

"Not buying it. Give me her number. I'll call. You know, use my charm."

"I doubt your charm would work on her."

Jisoo leaned in closer until her mouth was oh so close to Jennie's ear. "For some reason, I think it would work on her."

Like it worked on your girlfriend?

"Let me see what I can do."

"That's my girl," Jisoo said softly and smiled as she stood straight.

'That's my girl. Come for me Jennie.'

"Something wrong?" Jisoo asked.

"No. Nothing," Jennie nervously answered. She had to get these hormones or whatever it was under control. "I need to get back to work."

"Me too," Jisoo said as she turned and made her way outside.

Jennie plopped down on the stool nearby. Things were going so well. Now she felt that pressure again.

Just like when Jisoo was insisting on meeting the designer before. She wasn't going to let Jennie stall for long.

What do I do?

**********

The past week was taking its toll. Jennie's body ached in places she didn't know existed. Her latest cycle began and she hated the weepy feelings.
