Symptoms: None

Time in: 9:00 am September 29th, 2014

Jennie thought about changing doctors after the last visit, mainly because Jisoo - no matter how interesting,or whatever - was awful; but also because she was embarrassed by her outburst. She hadn't yelled like that since firing her first agent after he tried to shove his hand down her pants.

She looked down at her knees when Jisoo walked in, only looking up when Jisoo cleared her throat. And then suddenly words began to tumble out. "Listen, I'm sorry about blowing up at the last visit, I know that I don't know you - but, also, you don't know me. Still, it was wrong to - No, listen. Like I said, it was wrong of me. But you were being so insufferable for no reason, and I know you think I'm inferior to all those famous pianist, and I guess that's your right, or whatever - but I work hard too!"

"Can I--?"

"And it's really frustrating when people underestimate me because I am good at what I do, even if you look down on me. Even if people like you--"

"Jennie!" Jisoo finally shouted.

Jennie jerked her head up, lips parted slightly.

"You've done most of the talking, so - uh - listen to me now," Jisoo said, a faint red creeping up onto her cheeks. "I'm...I'm," she swallowed in, "sorry." Jisoo looked like she was having a stroke, her eyes wide, chest going up and down fast without rhythm. "I may have been wrong about you. But, it wasn't because you were an idol, even if I don't particularly enjoy that kind of music."

Jennie furrowed her brows, leaning in a little to study Jisoo's reactions. "Then why?" she asked.

"Celebrities have a habit of being entitled and annoying and awful. And maybe you are annoying, but I suppose you aren't--" deep sigh , "totally awful or anything." Jisoo muttered the last part into her hand before slowly twirling an already curled strand of hair.

"Wow," Jennie said, "That was a terrible apology."

"Says the girl who basically apologized while reiterating the things she was supposed to apologizing for in the first place," Jisoo said, though the smallest trace of a smile was beginning to appear on her lips.

Jennie started to smile back. "Okay, maybe we're both difficult and bad at apologies." She then tilted her head to the side, placing a finger to her lips. "But you're definitely the worst."

"Beg to differ."

Sighing, Jennie said, "You can't even realize when you're wrong, what a shame."

"Uh huh, sure, Jennie."

The sound of her name in Jisoo's mouth sent the tiniest chill down her arms, it was strange. There was no adoration in it, and it was almost - ironically - clinical, crisp. Jennie kind of liked it.

"Anyways, since you don't hate me anymore-"

"Who says I don't?"

Jennie rolled her eyes. "Are you going to start listening to super idol Nini's music." Jennie held out her sign, striking her idol pose the best she could while sitting down on an examination table.

Looking her up and down, Jisoo gave a derisive snort. "First of all, gross. Second of all, don't push your luck."

"But Jennie's so cute!"

She held the stethoscope bell up against Jennie's chest. "You're not doing yourself any favors, now breathe in."
