Ring ring...
It was Jisoo.
Jennie picked up her phone, "Hey~"
"Jennie!" Jisoo was clearly panicked, "Are you being serious?"
Jennie rolled her eyes.
"What did you do to Eunwoo and Doyeon??"
"Oh come on, who cares about them."
"Jennie, they will be expelled!"
"Deserved! The things they said and did to you were unacceptable."
"Oh no. I ruin their lives..."
"They don't deserve your mercy, Jisoo."
"Jennie, I told you it wasn't a big deal! I am okay."
"Are you tho..."
"Is there a way to fix this?"
"I'm sorry, it's too late now, The report has reached the head of faculty. And even if there's a way to undo this, I won't do that."
Jisoo murmured on the phone. She was clearly upset.
"They deserve it, Jisoo. Is there anyone else that bothered you? Please tell me and I will..."
"On God, no Jennie! I told you I am okay!" Jisoo then said with a softer voice, "You don't have to do anything for me."
"And you don't have to hide your true feelings in front of me. Do you think I will appreciate you less if you're actually not okay?"
"I'm fine..." Jisoo whispered softly.
"In case you don't know," Jennie paused, she weighted the words she was about to say, "I want you with everything you are. Not only the good things that comes with you, but also your pain, your weaknesses, your flaws."
The sincerity in Jennie's voice hit home in Jisoo's heart, being vulnerable and showing the ugly side of herself was never an option for her. But strangely, the words freed her. She had been trying too hard to be perfect, to be strong... But after all, she was not a superhuman. She did got hurt.
And she did needed some remedy. And Jennie was her remedy.
Damn this Jennie Kim... She really meant it when she said she would be my Edward...
At that moment, Jisoo learned a thing or two about vulnerability. And at the moment, her heart vowed to let her true self known to the one she adored. Jennie.
