Play Date with You (JenKai)

14: FATHER

"Jen." Jisoo Unnie called my name but I'm still in daze.

"Jen, you're phone." Jisoo Unnie went near me to wake me up.

I felt my hand shaking as I fetch my phone out of my pocket. I felt how my stomach run cold when I saw her name on the screen. Is it really today?

Eomma calling..

"It's your mom.." Jisoo Unnie whisper.

I looked at her and excused myself before I run inside my room. Still contemplating if I should answer my phone. Can't I be sick today? Can't I just made a reasonable excuse for me not to come? Like, going disappearing into another dimension or travelling to Mars.

I am being stupid even in my own head.

"Eomma.." in the end, I knew I have no choice but to answer her calls.

("You didn't forgot this day of the year didn't you?") Her strict tone on the other line.

I look up the ceiling as I rested my back on the wall. "Ne."

("Don't be late and wear something formal. We have important visitors, understand?") And by important visitors, she means my father's business partners' families in which they want to set me up with.

"Okay." I sighed, heavily.

And before I could even say another word, she already ended the line. I bit my lower lip as I walked inside my walk in closet to find an elegant dress to wear for tonight's family dinner aka soon to be one of my most hated dinner. I can't just say no to them, especially to my father.

"You didn't eat lunch, where are you going?" Jisoo Unnie stop me when I finally went out of my room, wearing a red bodycon strap dress with my hair falling down my waist.

"To my father's place. One of my appointment with him and his family." I couldn't even call that mansion my home.

Because after my real mother left, I don't feel it as a home for me anymore.

"Okay, goodluck Jendukie~" Jisoo Unnie gave me a hug before I left.

I'm really lucky to have them. At least, when I felt lost.. they found me. And now I got a whole new family with my members/sisters with the blinks with us.

When the person I loved the most left. Jisoo Unnie, Rosé, and Lisa came to my life to fill the void. But even so, my mother still left a huge scar. A scar that I know will never disappear inside my heart.

"Good evening, Miss Kim." Many servants greeted me as I enter the mansion in which I only nodded in response.

They led me to the extravagant dining hall where my family and three major stock holder's families in my Father's company is sitted in a long dining table. They were all laughing and talking about something, probably throwing empty praises to boost each other's egos.

"Appa." I went straight to my father and kissed his cheek to greet him.

"You're late, Jennie." What a nice greeting.

"I just run some errands." Actually, I wasted my time thinking for an excuse not to come.

"And that errand has something to do with your nonsense job? Or should I even call it a job?" My Father raised a brow at me as I sat.

He finds my dream and passion nonsense because it has nothing to do with business. Honestly, everything he cared about is business.

"Daebak!" One of his investor's son is staring at me with his mouth's agape.

I maintain a straight face because that caught my Father's attention. The guy even has the guts to stood up and pointed at me, he looks like he wants to jump or something.

"You.. you're Jennie Kim?! You're BlackPink's Jennie Kim? Daebak! Is it real?" I fought the urge to laugh at the guy's reaction.

"Shin Jae." His father ordered him to sit back.

"Mianhe." His ears reddened. "I-I'm a fan."

"It's okay." I meekly answered as I sipped on my water.

"Wow. You have a very pretty and passionate daughter Mr. Kim. An idol? That's a very tough job." One of the ahjummas gawked at me.

I only smiled, I want to leave this place as early as possible so I don't want anyone's attention. But it seems like all of them are interested at me because their eyes are all on me. Which I couldn't believe, I just want to escape this place. How could I escape with all their attention on me?

"My son would love to get to know you." An Ahjumma said as she put a steak on my plate.

I stopped eating and glance at her, "I have a boyfriend."

That made my Father stopped eating too. Suddenly, everyone on the dining froze and waited for my Dad's violent reaction if there is any. I know my relationship with Jongin is not real but if it's my only way to escape this situation, being forced to be with my Father's business partners' sons, then so be it. I'd rather be with Kai than any other men that could be likely like my Appa in the future.

"And who could it be?" Eomma, my Dad's new wife asked. I called her Eomma because that's my Father's command.

But if it's only me, I would've just call her by her name.

"I don't think it's necessary for you to kno--"

"Oh right. You're currently dating Kai of EXO." Shin Jae, the guy who claim to be a fan said.

I sighed heavily because of him answering their queeries about my relationship with Jongin. And Shin Jae answered as if he knows everything about my relationship with Jongin. I grimaced because of his useless answers that I know will add fuel to my father's disappointment.

"Appa--" I was about to say that I'm not really in a serious relationship with Kai.

Because Jongin's worst nightmare coming true would be meeting my father.

"I want to meet him." Appa looked sternly at me, "I want to meet this Kim Jongin or Kai of EXO as they say."

I gulped. He can't..

I will never let him meet Jongin.
