Jisoo was starting to realize that Jennie Kim was literally everywhere. It seemed strange that she never paid attention before. Coming into the office every day she couldn't not see Jennie's face on one of the magazines laid out in the waiting room. Pictures of Jennie walking, looking at her phone, buying coffee... vaping (something that now Jisoo only found mildly disgusting). And she always looked so...good.

Jisoo saw the one outfit she was wearing, the overalls and brastrap number, on the cover of a tabloid magazine. And it didn't look skimpy, just cute. Jennie was cute, and begrudgingly, Jisoo could see the appeal.

Her music wasn't terrible either. Jisoo had made the mistake of turning on a mainstream station out of curiosity, and Jennie's newest single just happened to be playing. From there Jisoo listened to snippets of other songs.

It almost became hard not to think of Jennie, just because everywhere Jisoo turned Jennie was just there, her music or her face of some random merchandise. So actually seeing her felt weird. Like it was just registering that Jennie actually was a celebrity and not just some bratty patient.

Jisoo said nothing but a short greeting upon entering the room, giving the occasional glance to Jennie.

Jennie swung her legs back and forth, watching Jisoo closely. She could feel it. It made her squirmy, like performing under pressure. And how was she supposed to really act after their last meeting? She should act normal? Right?

"How are you feeling?" Jisoo asked, taking a quick look at the chart and seeing nothing of real significance.

Jennie covered her mouth with her hand as she let out a loud yawn. "Tired. Have you listened to my music yet, Jisoo?"

Jisoo whipped her body around. Why did she say that? She brought her hand up to her hair, curled it at the ends, a brief distraction from Jennie - not that she needed to be distracted or anything. "I--yes. It's kind of hard not to," Jisoo said.

Jennie's entire body lifted at that. " Well , did you like it?"

The cool metal of her stethoscope rested in Jisoo's hands as she brought it over to Jennie. "It wasn't bad. Breath in."

Jennie sucked in a gulp of air, then exhaled it all while saying, "Wasn't bad? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Are you like, incapable of compliments or something?"

Jisoo circled the bell to Jennie's back, leaning over her. Like this, she couldn't see Jennie's face, but they were pressed tighter together. "Maybe I was just trying to spare you from saying it was bad."

Jennie huffed in, more out of indignance than to help Jisoo hear the steady, but quick pace of her heart. "It is not bad. I don't do anything badly!"

"Except stay still?" Jisoo asked, pulling away. She cocked her brow, watching Jennie's face scrunch up in that strangely adorable - wait, not adorable - annoying way she does.

"An idol should never stay still for too long!"

"You're insufferable."

"Just admit you like my music, Jisoo. Everyone does." She placed her hand on her chin, leaning in on it. If she tilted forward anymore Jisoo thought she'd fall, which could be amusing, but also could delay her entire day.

"You're going to fall."

"Answer me."

Catchy, interesting composition - not that Jisoo would say it out loud, but good vocals. "It was...okay," Jisoo said.

"Okay?" she pouted, gave a small, " humph."

Child. "Okay."

"Okay," Jennie said back, her lips twisting up this time. Jisoo didn't like that look, it was devilish, a scheming look. Definitely scheming. But after that, Jennie didn't bring up the music again, settling with tiresome small talk for the rest of the appointment.
