Lisa's POV

I carried Jennie and rushed her to a nurse passing by the corridor outside. "Please help me get a doctor! My friend just fainted out of nowhere.. please be quick i don't know what happened to her..."

As soon as the nurse called for a doctor he brought her to another ward to check up on her. I sat down on the couch waiting impatiently, my heart was still beating fast.

After awhile the doctor took off the hearing piece from his stethoscope and strode towards me.

"Late evening to you, ive run a few check ups on your friend Ms Jennie Kim here, and her blood pressure is slightly above normal. I advise you to make sure that she does not involve herself in strenuous activities. Lastly, may i ask if you know if has she recently suffered from recurring headaches or migraines, or even an accident which involved her head?" The doctor asked inquisitively.

I shifted my foot nervously as i replied him. "Yes, a few days ago she was knocked down by someone at the skiing mountain and her head hit a flat rock. But she was brought to the hospital and the doctor said that she was fine, other than a minor bruise on the side of her head."

The doctor wrote down some quick notes as he listened, then he paused to ponder for a few moments before answering.

"Hmm... did the doctor say anything else?"

I jolted up in my seat as i recalled an important detail. "Actually yes. He said that Jennie was suffering from amnesia but it would only last a day. So after 24 hours she would not recall anything that had happened that day."

The doctor stopped writing and smiled. "Ahhh.. so this is the lady whom had that weird condition. Yes the doctors were all talking about it because we've never encountered such an occurrence, it was pretty bizarre my colleague was baffled by the brain scans. But anyway, from my experience i think it is safe to say that like any other cases of amnesia, the patients have a slight chance of regaining their memories. Sometimes just partially, sometimes entirely especially when they have been very memorable to them. The patient might experience sudden flashbacks or what they think are voices in their heads which are actually memories of the past incidents, which could be a blur and thus causing lightheadedness or headaches." He said calmly.

My heart skipped a beat as i heard this revelation. Jennie could remember... she could remember me..

"Miss?" The doctor called waving at me and i was suddenly aware of myself who was lost for words at the moment.

"O-Oh. I see... Th-that's great i guess.." I mumbled.

"Well if there isn't anything else, i'll take my leave. Remember about my advice earlier on about the blood pressure. Have a good rest." The doctor stated and left the room to attend to other patients.

I slumped back down on the couch, my thoughts were whirling through my head at a thousand miles per hour. No, don't think about it yet. For now i will have to focus on Jennie's health and also Jisoo.

I brought my phone out of my pocket and called Rosé, she has to know about Jisoo.

"Mhmhmmm...mmm- hello?"

What the?

"Yah! Chaeyoung-ah what the fuck are you doing?!" I shouted into the phone.

"I- Lisayah? I'm eating this amazing bowl of fruit salad i made for myself, why the heck are you shouting?!" Rosé replied as i heard the sound of crunching in the background.

Oh my god my dirty mind aishh.

"Hahahaha nothing. Glad to hear that you're eating something and not someone-" I laughed.

I don't know why but its not that i am being a hypocrite for not letting my bestfriend be involved in sexual activities, its just that i couldn't imagine my innocent chipmunk doing that with someone.

"Yah! What the hell Lisa! You are so pervert urghhh im going to have to go church this week. I'll pray for you." Chaeyoung whined.

I continued chuckling. Rosé always cheered me up no matter how terrible my mood was.

"Anyway, why did you call this time? Let me guess, you bought Jennie fifty tubs of milk ice cream and you're now broke and need money from me." Rosé said.

"Hey! Why do you always assume such stuff about me? I'm not that crazy to buy that much ice cream... or maybe yes for Jennie... but still! The supermarket wouldn't have that many tubs instock." I replied.

"Okay whatever Lisa, i don't wanna hear about your whipped side for her, so what exactly is the problem?" Rosé asked as the sound of crunching leaves intensified.

"Well.... this is serious actually. You might want to stop eating first and listen to me." I said seriously.

"Yah just shoot, im not stopping this bowl of goodness." Rosé insisted stubbornly and continued eating.

"Fine suit yourself. Jisoo is in the hospital." I said.

A sound of choking could be heard on the other end of the call.

"Kggsb- Jisoo is WHAT?!" She shouted.

"You heard it right... Jisoo unnie is in a coma right now and the doctors are unsure when she is gonna wake up.. chaeyoung-ah, Jisoo might not even ever wake up." I said tears forming in my eyes again as i tried to keep my voice steady.

"Ji.. Jisoo unnie...." Rosé said her voice cracking. I knew that she too was trying not to cry.

"Send me the location. I'll take a leave this week and drive over as soon as possible." Rosé said forcefully.

"Alright then i'll hang up now. Goodnight chae, don't worry too much, she'll be fine." I said reassuringly.

After the call ended with Rosé i decided to inform Jennie's other colleagues, Seulgi and Irene about her. I figured that she would not like it if she woke up and saw me. Besides, the doctor had said to becareful of her blood pressure, i didn't want her to faint again or anything worse. I explained everything including Jisoo's accident. I was glad i called Irene because she had surprisingly remained calm and listen to everything and she didn't immediately yell or blame me for anything.

"Thank you for understanding... could you also help me inform Jisoo's family? Yes i'll text you the details of both their wards. Thank you." I said as i ended the call.

I walked over to Jennie and stared at her beautiful features. As i bent down to kiss her on the forehead, i stopped myself and sighed. Then i simply stroked her hair. "I love you Jennie. I hope im making the right decision." I said softly and exited the ward.

I went to visit Jisoo one last time to check on her. She was still laying peacefully on the bed, her chest heaving slowly. At least she was still breathing.

"I hope you can forgive me unnie. And i promise i will be back. Maybe by then you would be awake and you can smack me on the head. But for now.. i think i really need some time to think things through. I hope you understand." I said to her and even though she was in a coma i knew that she was listening.

I left the room and went to the counter to make arrangements for their hospital fees to be put on my bill. I also informed the same doctor to explain their conditions to Seulgi and Irene when they arrive because i could tell that it was still confusing for Irene even though i had briefly explained to her in the call earlier. Once everything was settled i went back to my hotel room.

I packed all my stuff and booked a last minute flight. I had been thinking of this all night and the doctor's words earlier had confirmed my decision.

I stood infront of the hotel entrance holding onto the handle of my luggage with my right hand and my phone on the other.

I have to leave you Jennie. I have to go somewhere far from everyone and i will try to forget you and everything that has happened no matter how long it takes. If i stick around, i would just cause you more pain and you might even remember me. As much i want you to, i realize that it would do more harm than good. You have to forgive me first and i have to forgive myself. So maybe years later when we are both healed and whole, i can appear in your life again. But for now... i think its right for me to say goodbye.
