JENNIE

"Please come home now, Jen,.. I need you here,"

When Lisa said those words, I got stunned because it suddenly caught me off guard.

"What?" I ask because I don't know what else to say.

"When are you coming back to Korea?" she asks instead.

"Probably next week it's already our last task, why? Are you not enjoying yourself there?" she chuckles, but the tiredness of her voice is still present.

"Ani (No) I just... miss you," she replied softly, and I can't help but smile.

"Why all of a sudden?" I ask as I slowly walk around the place.

"Are you uncomfortable about it?" she asks me instead of answering my question, and I was taken back.

"No, why would I?" I replied.

"Exactly, because you shouldn't be, the fact that we already kissed so..." the teasing tone of her voice can now be heard then after that she giggles.

"Are you going to mention our kiss whenever we call each other?" I try to sound like I'm not happy about it, but I failed because I was now grinning widely.

"Of course I am, I just kissed the person who caught my eyes, and also dumped me by the way."

"Hajima (Stop it)," I told her trying not to smile too wide because my cheeks are starting to get hurt.

"I see, you're not used to hear some cheesy lines huh?" she teases me again.

"Shut up, it's not like that," I replied, still smiling.

She hums for an answer.

"You sound tired, what did you do today?" I start to have a more extended conversation with her.

"Hmm, how should I say this... ah maja, I'm exposing myself too much that many people saw my beautiful face so I got tired accepting their compliments. Aigoo my cheeks are hurting because of smiling too much, aigoo," she replied, and I playfully groan.

"Is that a joke?" I mock her, and I heard her laugh, there it is, the sound that I really wanted to hear in the first place.

"Why can't you just agree with me, we both know that it's true, and that's the reason why you initiated our second kiss."

"Oh my gosh Lisa stop mentioning about the kiss," I scold her teasingly.

"If you're not comfortable about it then be my girlfriend."

"Very smooth Manoban," I said to her instead.

"Now it's confirmed that you're really avoiding that question every time I ask you."

"You didn't ask me anything, you stated it," she then giggles.

"Arasso, you win this time, only because I let you," she added, and this time I'm the one who laughs.

"Don't underestimate me Captain," I replied.

"I didn't," she said simply, and I'm still smiling.

Silence...

"Tell me Lisa-ya, why do you need me there?" I ask her directly, but the other line was still silent, did she fell asleep?

"...."

"My heart told me so."

Okay, breath Jennie.
