Jennie's POV
We're done with work a bit early than usual and I told Rosie that she can come with me so we can hang out and stuff. Once we arrived at the penthouse we immediately heard talking in the living room and I saw Lisa with Jisoo on the couch playing some video games. Both of them looked at us and Jisoo immediately stood up seeing me while Lisa paused the game and walk towards us
"I invited Jisoo is that alright?" She asked so I just nodded and looked behind her to nod at Jisoo while she's just staring at Rosie who went for a hug with Lisa.
"Chaeng this is my best friend Jisoo...Jisoo this is Chaeyoung, Jennie's best friend" she said introducing the both of them. I started walking towards the couch seeing Kuma there so I sit down to pet him while all of them are still talking.
"Jennieyah, let's just order some food so we can all eat dinner together" Rosie said so I nodded and Lisa joined her in the kitchen so they can make a call.
"Jisoo" I called out and she walks towards me to sit right beside me "you're Lisa's best friend right?" I asked
"Yeah, you're Chaeyoung's best friend right? She's gorgeous" she stated making me roll my eyes which just earned a chuckle from her... No wonder she's best friend with another crack head
"Seriously Jisoo, I wanted to ask you something about Lisa" I said and put Kuma down on my lap so he can sleep
"What about Lisa?" She asked switching the TV back to some random show
"Her parents to be specific" I said making her stop and looking back at me "what happened to Lisa's parents?" I asked looking at her as well

"They died in a car accident" she said and I sighed hearing the same thing over and over again
"I'm not dumb Jisoo... She wouldn't cry in the middle of the night because of a nightmare and mumbling sorry to her parents" I said making Jisoo sigh as well as she scratches her nape not knowing what to say
"Lisa... She blames herself for the death of her parents." She paused and look back at the TV "that's all I can tell you Jennie... I'm not in the right place to say it, I hope you understand" she said so I just nodded not wanting to push her "don't tell Lisa about it.. It hunts her every time" she says so I nodded and stayed there looking at Kuma while my whole mind's elsewhere.
"We ordered already!!" Lisa went out of the kitchen cheerfully with Chaeyoung who has some food in her hand... She's probably that hungry that she can't wait for the food to be delivered.

When Jisoo's about to go home Rosie offered her a ride back home so she said yes without letting Rosie finish her question. And now it's just Lisa and me here while cleaning up the mess.
"Lisa" I called out making her hum as she turns around to look at me
"Tell me about your family... What are they like?" I asked and I can see how her face falls but she kept her gaze on me
"There's nothing to talk about them that much... Since we didn't spend a lot of time together." She said avoiding the topic already so I decided to just drop it "I'll go and sleep now Jennie Kim.. Goodnight" she said and went upstairs leaving me here. After a couple of minutes, I went to my bedroom and took a shower before going to bed. I tried sleeping by closing my eyes but I heard the door opened and I kept my eyes closed till the door shut once again. I open up my eyes and stood up immediately to walk towards my door opening it up slowly and quietly while going out and looking over the stairs seeing Lisa in a hoodie. I thought she'll just go to the kitchen or the living room but she takes the elevator to head out. I immediately run towards my room and grab my phone calling Mr. Kang

"Jennie, do you need-" I cut him off already
"Mr. Kang, Lisa's heading out make sure someone follows her and report back to me" I said hanging up and walking downstairs to the living room.

An hour passed and Jennie received a call from one of the guards so she answered immediately
"Ms. Kim, Ms. Manoban's heading back home. She went to an ATM to withdraw some money and she went straight to an old building and stayed there for at least half an hour till she got out. She's not hurt tho" he said so I hung up and waited for Lisa to come home.
Once she's home, Mr. Kang escorted her up to the penthouse
"Where have you been?" I asked looking at her and she just shrugged her shoulder
"I can't sleep so I went out for a walk again" she said making me furrow my brows... I don't know why she's lying
"I let someone go after you. Why did you withdraw some cash this late night and they saw you entering a building" I said and she ducks her head down sighing "Mr. Kang please leave us" I said and he bowed down before going out.
"I owe some debt to someone Jennie so I went out to pay them" she said
"Cant they come here instead? I'll pay all of your debt. Do you know how dangerous it is to go out this late?" I asked not raising my voice but keeping it authoritative
"I just know that that'll happen so I chose to go out when I thought you're sleeping already" she said as she looks up at me "and I'll pay them myself Jennie.. That's why I'm working for you, I wanted to pay my debts on my own. And I don't want you to be involved in this" she said making me furrow my brows
"Who are these people that you don't want me to be included with?" I asked
"It's better that you know nothing Jennie... No ones gonna get hurt neither am I if we keep it this way" she said
