The one day theater play ended smoothly and gracefully which receives great feedbacks from theater patrons and critics. Besides that, the lead actress of the play who happens to be a celebrity attracted a lot of audiences, it became a nationwide talk about.

It was the first time Lisa had performed in such a huge crowd and the pressure of being the supporting role on top of being her debut play was almost unattainable but she's able to get through it nonetheless, gaining numbers of supporters and a good score for her career.

This time, Lisa's parents were able to attend the play who sat in the front row along with Jennie, Jisoo, Rosé, Mark, Jackson, Wendy, Seulgi and few other students. It was a successful and beautiful event for everyone.

With sad smiles, Lisa sent her parents to the airport 3 days after her play with a promise of making them proud in any way possible.

 

The following weeks are just Lisa being all busy and exhausted from all the catching up that she needs to do for missing a month. When all her exams were done, she slumped her body straight to the unaware Rosé who yelped but later on cradled the exhausted woman in her arms as they sat together in the same spot, with the other two.

 

Lisa had her eyes closed while resting her head on Rosé's bag. "This poor thing." Rosé says, gently caressing her back and her now brunette hair, she had it dyed after the play.

"You're done?" Jisoo asks receiving a nod and a hum from the in question. "You don't have upcoming practices, do you?"

She turns her head to face the woman but still having her head rest on the bag. "Luckily no so I am free until the new one comes."

 

Shutting her eyes close again, letting the touches from the older and the breeze lulls her to peace and exhaustion. Such long weeks she just had.

Literally had no clue if she's being observed by the silent woman across her, all she wants is a nice sleep. She remains idle for a few more minutes before she felt a sudden growl in her stomach and grins— eyes still close — and heard Rosé's laugh, she definitely heard it.

 

"Oh well.." she opens her eyes and meets the other woman's stare before they burst out into a laughing fit, causing Jisoo to fuss over them.

"Someone is hungry." Rosé says and pats Lisa's head. "Let's go grab something to eat."

 

Can't find any good place to stay and eat, Lisa invites them over her unit instead, all of them had no shifts or schedules tomorrow anyway. They bought groceries a long the way, Jisoo and Jennie offered to cook for them instead of taking out.

Rosé and Jisoo had been in her unit multiple times but it's going to be first for Jennie. Good thing she'd left the house clean and arranged this morning because she knows how clean freak the woman is, all four of them as a matter of fact.

Once home, Rosé immediately slumps herself onto Lisa's couch bed and stays sprawled on it while the owner heads straight to the kitchen to deposit some grocery bags before she left for her bedroom.

 

"I'll go have some quick change. Do you wanna change shirts?" she asks.

"Yes! Oversized sleeveless shirt please!" Rosé says from the couch, now reaching for the remote.

"You know what I want." Jisoo says, grabbing some veggies out of the paper bags.

"Oversized shirt then." Lisa then looks at Jennie who's not answering and closely pays attention in  taking the meat out of the sealed container. "How about you Jennie unnie?"

Jennie looks up and meets her eyes causing churns in her stomach. 'The things you made me feel. Sigh. Pathetic.'

"Oh, any oversized clothes will do."

"Oversized bra?" she tries to joke but ended up mentally facepalming herself for the wrong word.

"Ha ha ha. Very funny." Jennie mocks whilst smiling, Lisa saw it and got relieved. That was close.

 

She chuckles and left them to change and grab the clothes they wanted to wear. Minutes later, Lisa came out with hair tied in a messy pony tail, an oversized sleeveless practice shirt from the school's play and a gray sweatpants on.

She tosses the baby pink sleeveless shirt towards the face of the unaware woman on the couch making her whine once it landed, hands another one in color gray towards Jisoo then one for Jennie, a black oversized shirt before she joins Rosé in the living room.

Jisoo and Jennie heard a sudden loud whine and grunt from the living room which made Jisoo sigh whilst shaking her head.

 

"Lisa probably rolled over her again."

"Do they always do that?" Jennie asks while slicing some of the ingredients, they're going to have kimchi fried rice with pork in it and grilled beef.

"Not always but most of the time."

The older ones are busy getting their meal done when Rosé runs, heading towards them while laughing and holding the remote and a Lisa chasing her.

"What the.. What is it now?" Jisoo says, Rosé effectively
