♫ Music Playing: Heavy Heart by RIO
"Chairman Kim Jiyong and Chairman Hong Jihoon are seen playing golf with their kids, Kim Jisoo son of Chairman Kim Jiyong, and Chairman Hong Jihoon's daughter, Hong Soojoo at The Trinity Club. Is this another arranged marriage between the two richest families in South Korea? We're looking forward for Kim and Hong to be united." Rosie read the latest news on her phone.
Students wouldn't shut up about the latest news on the internet seeing photos of Jisoo and Soojoo playing golf together with their fathers.
"That's why they both did not attend the class yesterday because they're together with their daddies." Rosie murmured to Jennie who was listening to her with her eyebrows knitted together, "Well that's not surprising Jisoo has been giving her a ride to school and her house." She put her phone down on her desk checking her newly painted nails. As she always does when she gossips with her friends.
Jennie looks at Rosie raising her eyebrows, "Until now?!"
Rosie looks at her friend with a face saying seriously you didn't know, "Oh babe, you didn't know? Where have you been?"
"I've been around longer than Soojoo does," Jennie said defensively.
Rosie gave Jennie a knowing smile, "Oh my gosh, Babe! Are you jealous of Soojoo!?" she squealed whispering to the cat-eyed girl.
"No!" Jennie said standing up from her chair making the students look at her.
Rosie burst out laughing in a sassy way, "Ohhh you do, Babe! Don't deny it I've been there!" She said still laughing at Jennie's outrage.
Jennie looks down at Rosie crossing her arms above her chest and raising her eyebrows, "So what if I am!? I am his best friend I have the right to feel jealous of her."
"Yes, you do have the right to be jelly, Babe. But as a best friend, not a girlfriend. Not in that way as if you're prohibiting him from be involve with Soojoo. She's fine, Jen gave her a chance she's a perfect girlfriend for Jisoo." Rosie explained to Jennie calmly observing her friend's reaction to her being supportive of Jisoo and Soojoo.
"Whatever! I'll go to the restroom." Jennie said walking hurriedly away from Rosie's view.
As she walked to the hall with faster steps she bumped into someone making her butt fall on the floor. Feeling pissed she looks up and gets more angrier it was the person she didn't want to see for the rest of her life.
"I'm sorry, Jennie! I didn't mean to-" Soojoo apologized, extending her hand to help Jennie stand up from the floor.
Jennie didn't take Soojoo's hand and helped herself up, "Next time look where you are walking so you won't accidentally bump into someone!" She yelled into Soojoo's face taking the students' attention to them.
Someone stands up beside her and when Jennie looks at it, it is her boyfriend.
"You good, baby?" Kai asked concerned holding Jennie's cheeks.
"I'm sorry, Jennie." Soojoo apologizes again bowing her head to Jennie.
"Yeah sure you do!" Jennie yelled again feeling so irritated with Soojoo.
"Baby, calm down. It's fine, Soojoo you can go now." Kai said smiling at Soojoo nodding his head.
When Soojoo is about to leave Jennie steps in her way.
"Hey! Next time make sure you know who you are bumping into!" Jennie said leaving Soojoo dumbfounded and made her way to the restroom.
Kai called her name but Jennie didn't look at her back. Smirking to herself knowing she got her revenge on Soojoo making her sit on the floor.
👣
"So what happened between you and Soojoo?" Rosie asked leaning forward to Jennie who was eating her salad.
"Nothing happened," Jennie answered shortly.
"Oh, really? Students are talking about what happened to the hall between you and Soojoo, babe." Rosie said sitting properly on the bench.
"At least they're not talking about Jisoo and Sojoo being together because I already had enough of that," Jennie answered putting some more salad in her mouth.
"I feel like you are telling me you can't hide your feelings to Jisoo anymore," Rosie said biting her burger bread and raising her eyebrows to Jennie.
Jennie looks at her with a surprised look on her face, "What are you saying!?"
Rosie finishes her food inside her mouth before she talks, "Oh come on, babe! You have been acting so weirdo ever since Jisoo is been with Soojoo like right now. You are fucking irritated every time you see them together like right now!"
Jennie laughed at Rosie's silliness.
"Stop pretending, Jen. I'm not dumb I've been watching you." Rosie said she had enough of pretending that she didn't know. She knows Jennie has feelings for Jisoo.
"Rosie, I have a boyfriend-" Jennie started to talk but Rosie cut her off.
"Sure you have but you don't have feelings with him like you have feelings with Jisoo. Face it, babe! If you don't be honest with yourself you might lose Jisoo forever." Rosie said drinking her milk, "The way Jisoo looks at Soojoo right now he might end up falling in love with her. And that's your fault for not entertaining him because you're too busy admiring Kai."
Jennie looks at her back and watches Jisoo looking at Soojoo's smiling face. He smiled differently and she felt her heart stop seeing him smile that way to Soojoo.
"STOP!" Jennie stands up from the bench and runs away.
"JENNIE!" Rosie called for Jennie making some students look at her. She looked at them and gave them a friendly smile and followed Jennie.
👣
Jisoo looks at Jennie's figure running away from Rosie.
"I'll go see what happened," Liam announced to the group taking their attention.
"You should, bro. Maybe Rosie needs some help." Seulgi said munching his burger and nodding his head in the direction of Rosie.
"I'll see you later in the room," Liam said running to where Rosie followed Jennie.
"Maybe I should go to?" Jisoo said taking everyone's attention to him.
"Why?" Seulgi asked raising his eyebrows.
"Because it's Jennie. She might need some help too. Liam is there for Rosie-" Jisoo didn't finish his sentence Seulgi interrupted him.
"No need, bro. Kai is following Liam." Seulgi pointed his long finger at Kai's figure disappearing.
Jisoo looks at where Seulgi pointed his finger and it reminded him again that that is not his place anymore. Kai has been doing that to Jennie ever since they were officially together.
"You okay?" Soojoo holds Jisoo's hands on the table.
"I'm fine, Soojoo." Jisoo smiled at Soojoo reassuring her.
"Glad to know because I'm starting to get worried," Soojoo said smiling back at Jisoo.
"Sorry for making you worried." Jisoo apologized to Soojoo, moving his hand and opening it so he could hold Soojoo's hand.
Soojoo looks into Jisoo's eyes, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, I am sure. Do I still look like I'm not?" Jisoo asked raising her eyebrows at Soojoo.
"Ehem!" Seulgi announced their presence, "We are still here guys!"
Bona laughed at Seulgi's announcing their presence.
"Why do you have to do that, Seul? It's cute seeing them this way. We're looking forward to where you're two goin." Bona said leaning forward to Jisoo and Soojoo.
"It's creepy seeing you two being lovey-dovey. Bro, can you stop holding Soojoo's hand?" Seulgi said looking at their interlocking hands above the table.
Bona laughed at Seulgi's statement again, "It's fine guys don't mind him he's just being jelly he has never been in love like you guys."
"Wanna try Bona?" Seulgi threatened Bona.
"Don't try me, Seul. You might end up falling in love with me and I can't be there to catch you." Bona warned making Soojoo and Jisoo laugh.
"It's not funny, bro. And don't laugh Soojoo." Seulgi rose from the bench throwing his waste in the trash, "I'll go back to the room first."
Bona rose from the bench too, "I'll go with him you guys talk first." She threw her waste too to the trash and followed Seulgi, "Seul wait for me!"
Soojoo and Jisoo were left on the bench still interlocking their hands under the table.
"Uhh - Should I remove my hands?" Jisoo asked breaking the silence.
Soojoo removed her hands hurriedly feeling shy, "Sorry I was surprised I didn't know how to react."
"It's fine I shouldn't have done that too in front of them. I'm sorry, Soojoo." Jisoo apologized bowing his head to Soojoo.
"I like you, Jisoo. I do. But I don't want to act as if I didn't know you have feelings with Jennie." Soojoo said playing with her hands on her lap, "If I agree to try us I wanted to make sure you won't be looking at Jennie like she has your heart."
"Soojoo," Jisoo called for Soojoo with sadness in his voice.
"Try moving on first to her before you try us I'll be waiting for you. I'm not going anywhere, Jisoo." Soojoo gave Jisoo a reassuring smile.
Jisoo reaches for Soojoo's cheeks caressing it, "I will. I'm sorry I made you feel that way."
"It's fine at least I know I have a chance to be the owner of your heart someday," Soojoo said smiling at Jisoo genuinely happy.
Jisoo couldn't help but hug Soojoo he wouldn't care if this would be the main gossip in their university. He wanted to hug Soojoo badly feeling so thankful for how understanding she was.
"Thank you, Soojoo." Jisoo whisperer to Soojoo's ear.
Soojoo closed her eyes and hugged Jisoo tightly. It felt so good to be in your arms. She thought feeling his masculine body in her petite body.
👣
"Why did you run?" Rosie asked feeling exhausted following Jennie in the girl's private restroom.
Jennie walks in circles around the restroom. Her breathing is getting louder. She's biting her nails as she tries to focus.
"Jen, what's wrong?" Rosie asked holding Jennie's arm to make her stop biting her nails.
"I can't. Seriously, I can't." Jennie says to her but Rosie can't understand her.
"You can't wait, babe?" Rosie asked concerned.
"I can't stand him falling in love with Soojoo." Jennie said looking directly into Roseanne's eyes, "Seeing him looking at Soojoo that way I felt my heart shattered into pieces."
Rosie was surprised to hear it from Jennie's mouth. She didn't expect that she was right maybe she did but she didn't know Jennie was deeply in love with Jisoo.
"If I let him be in love with Soojoo they might end up getting married. Jisoo promised he'd marry the girl he chose to be his girlfriend. You know how smart his mouth and mind are. You know he never back out of his words. He always meant it whatever he decided to do he'll do it." Jennie explained how she felt at that very moment.
"It might still change, Jen. Sometimes we can't predict the future maybe he only said that because he's still young-" Rosie couldn't finish her sentence Jennie interrupted her.
"This is the reason why he has never been in a relationship because he wanted to be sure when he does that the girl he's with deserves a marriage. He will do anything so they can work out well in their relationship that's his mindset, Rosie. I know him well ever since we were young." Jennie said couldn't stop herself from walking in circles around the room.
"Well if you know him so well did you ever feel like he's also in love with you?" Rosie asked holding Jennie's shoulder to stop her from walking her in circles again.
Jennie thought for a moment but right now she couldn't think right. The only thing on her mind right now is the way Jisoo is looking at Soojoo's smiling face.
"Fuck! I can't think of anything about us, Rosie!" Jennie yelled thankfully the room was soundproof no one could hear them.
"Just relax, babe! Think those moments when you guys are together and no one else." Rosie tried helping Jennie to think straight, "Try inhaling and exhaling, babe! You can do it, babe!"
Jennie tried again thinking of those moments she was with Jisoo. But as soon as it will show up the moments she spends time with Jisoo it gets blurry and changes to Jisoo smiling at the girl she most hated in Seoul.
"Fuck Soojoo!" Jennie yelled making Rosie surprised.
"Why?" Rosie asked looking at Jennie worriedly.
"I couldn't think of my moments with Jisoo because what happened earlier with them keeps repeating in my mind," Jennie said irritatedly stomping her feet on the restroom tiles.
"Rosie!" Rosie heard Liam's deep voice outside the restroom door.
"Jennie!" Jennie heard Kai's voice and knocked on the door repeatedly.
"Let's meet later at your house, Jen. We need a girl's talk later." Rosie said pulling Jennie with her and walking in the direction of the door.
Unlocking the doorknob Rosie opened it and got to meet her boyfriend who looked super worried.
"Are you girls okay?" Liam asked, checking his girlfriend.
"Yeah, we're fine, baby. No need to worry we are just gossiping. Right, babe?" Rosie said bumping Jennie's shoulder.
"Yes. It's just a hot gossip from Busan University." Jennie said trying hard to make herself feel not so irritated giving Liam and Kai a fake smile.
"You sure, baby?" Kai asked looking so worried to his girlfriend.
"Yeah, let's go back to our class," Jennie said taking Kai's hand to go back to their respective rooms.
