Chapter 11: Rest in Peace
Jennie's POV
I keep looking at the wall clock above the door of my office to check the time.
She'll be here anytime soon.
Why does it feel like I'm uncomfortable? I keep looking at the papers in my front but I can't focus on it.
I'm just reading and not understanding any words.
Since it's lunchtime, I already told my secretary to let my awaited visitor come in.
I unconsciously stood up when I heard the door open.
But no, it's not the person I'm waiting for.
"What are you doing here?" I asked her in my cold tone.
She just smirked.
"Is it true?" She asked that made me raise my eyebrows.
"Are you going to destroy my career?" She added.
"Get out." But instead, I answered her.
"You're something eh? Are you that insecure to me? You wanted to snatch that author to me?" I can't figure out the emotions in her face.
Well, that's usual.
But mine will forever be hatred, every time I see her.
"She's what I've been looking for—
"Damn you!" I was taken aback when Jisoo shouted.
"How can you fucking do this? Do you know how much I'm sick of acting so kind to you? Like I have to be good to you because you are fucking sick! Like I have to pretend that you didn't kill our brother in my front!" She's shouting like hell.
I clenched my fist.
"Get out, get the fucking hell out of my office!" I shouted back.
She chuckled.
"I can still stand your fucking attitude Ruby Jane, but do you know what I can't stand? You're doing everything to destroy me, and please be a sister to me at least once, that author, Lisa, I need her in my career, if I got her, you're not going to see me again, as you wish." And with that, she left the room.
My heart beats fast.
I'm furious.
I know.
I sit down since I can't take it anymore.
I got the calming pills in my mini drawer.
I closed my eyes to calm down.
I need to fight for this, I need to.
I need to help myself.
Lisa's POV
"The CEO is waiting for you, Ma'am." The secretary said.
I sighed deeply.
"Hey, you sure about this?" Rosé whispered to me.
I asked her to accompany me.
"Don't worry Baby, I'm fine," I whispered back.
She smiled.
"Oh wait, you go first okay? I'll just go pee in the comfort room, wait for me okay? Tell her your manager will be late a second."
I just chuckled.
Rosé wanted to be my manager and so she's the one receiving those letters from so many publication companies.
Even letters and gifts from my fans, she's the one picking them up at the fake address I sent to my readers.
"Go take your time, I'll wait for you before I enter the room." I smiled at her.
She waves before running somewhere.
"How can you fucking do this? Do you know how much I'm sick of acting so kind to you? Like I have to be good to you because you are fucking sick! Like I have to pretend that you didn't kill our brother in my front!"
I was shocked when I heard someone say those words in a loud tone.
And so I noticed the door wasn't locked, it was slightly open.
I don't want to peek inside but my curiosity is killing me.
"Get out, get the fucking hell out of my office!" I saw Jennie shout back at the lady I can't see.
Only her back.
I was just content watching them when suddenly my head ached.
"N-No, no, not here." I was panicking now.
And so I remembered my medicine's not here.
It's inside Rosé's pouch!
I immediately run to find her though my head keeps on aching and aching...
Until everything went black.
LEO's POV
"Miss? Are you okay?" I look at the lady in front of me.
I wander my eyes around.
I'm in a building.
Perfect place to die.
"Where's the rooftop?" Instead, I asked.
She looks so confused.
"A-Ahm, just after this floor—
I didn't wait for him to finish her words and just walked inside thelevatoroopenedned
"Weird." I heard him whisper.
But that's the least I care.
I was looking at the dress Lisa's wearing today.
I just hope this is her favorite dress, so she'd be happy to die.
A refreshing air welcomes me.
I saw in the elevator that this building has 45th floors.
I looked down and saw the busy street below.
"Lisa, I'm sure your suffering will end up now. I'm going to free you, you will fly high, you will own your body after this again." I was just closing my eyes while I was standing at the edge.
One more step and I'll be flying.
I saw Lisa's phone and that girl named "My Chipmunk" kept calling.
I declined the call as I always do.
I throw her phone on the railings.
I move my right foot in the air.
Balancing my body with only one foot.
I'm still closing my eyes feeling the moment.
This.
This is peace.
And so I'm willing to give this peace to Lisa.
She will finally feel it after so long.
I won't let her suffer anymore, I'm going to end this now.
May her body rest in peace afterward.
I was about to jump when someone hugged me from the back and pulled me.
And so we roll over until I'm on top of her.
"What the fuck are you doing?!" She shouted.
I was just staring at her, without blinking.
She has this breathtaking charisma.
Her deep eyes were like the Pacific Ocean.
Those cat-like eyes.
It's glaring at me, but I can't seem to care.
It was full of concern.
It was afraid.
Is she afraid to lose me?
Because this is the first time, someone's afraid to lose me.
