Jennie's POV

The police came and arrested the man that tried to rape Lisa while she was brought to the hospital. She fell asleep on my arms while we waited for them.

We basically forced Jisoo to return to the game while Rosé informed the guards and the principal. Even with the guys combined strength, the man was giving them a hard time. Good thing one of our security guards managed to overpower the man.

Lisa was given a rape kit and I was glad it turned out negative. It was such a relief that I managed to stop him on time. She was now resting on the hospital bed.

Due to this unfortunate incident, I was forced to call Irene to help baby sit Ella. Good thing those two managed to get along. Ella was just shocked to find no familiar people when she woke up that was why she freaked out on Irene but everything was fixed the next morning.

"Hey there." I said in a soft voice when Lisa opened her eyes.

"Where am I? What happened?" She asked.

"You were attacked."

Lisa's POV

"You were attacked." At her words, I suddenly remembered the events that occurred. Images of that man began assaulting my memory.

He was the one thing I have struggled to forget and just when I started to be okay, he returned.

"How are you?" Jennie asked. "The doctor's said that the rape kit was negative..." Jennie managed to save me on time at the moment but it doesn't mean that the rape didn't happen because it happened. It was very long time ago but still happened. "I'm sorry that I forced the doctor to reveal the test results."

"It's okay." I assured her. "How's Ella?"

"She's with Irene."

"Can we go home?"

"I'll have to ask the doctor."

When Jennie left, I was left to dabate if it was the right time to tell her. The incident with him should already spread to the whole campus and whether I like it or not, my connection with him will be revealed.

I felt like I have been hit by a truck and fed to sharks. Why do bad things always happen to me. What have I done to deserve all this punishment. If it weren't for Ella, I may have already committed suicide.

After a few moments, she came back with a doctor. "Hi, I'm Dr.Jerkins, let me do some check then I'll see if I can release you." The doctor looked so young as if she just graduated med school. She poked me everywhere, placed a light on my eyes and all other stuff. "Okay, I'm clearing you but if you feel anything you need to comeback." She said to me. "You on the other hand can also go since you managed to walk from your own room to here. Just continue to ice that nose so it won't turn badly and careful on your ribs you broke three of them."

Looking at Jennie, I can't help but feel guilty. She got hurt because of me. It must be hard to breath by having your ribs broken. I knew since I had a first hand experience on it. Her face was badly bruised, her nose was broken and her lips was cut. "Hey... It's not your fault. I did it without knowing it was you... So don't feel guilty."

Jennie's POV

We took a cab home since I caught a ride in the imbalance with her. My friends wanted to come but I told them that I'll just meet them at the penthouse later and to bring our stuff.

Jisoo texted me the result of the game. We won by freaking one point. It was a buzzer beater show stopper that was made by a freshman. We'll be playing on the finals which was next Thursday, a day before the thanksgiving ball.

Damn... I haven't asked Lisa about that. I mentally sighed and slapped myself.

The receptionist helped us to the elevator after explaining the events to them. She also told me that my friends were in the penthouse.

Since I didn't have the key, there was no other choice but to knock and I was very much surprised to see the woman on the other side of the door.

"Oh... You're back... I thought it was the pizza guy." She said as she gave us a way to enter.

"Detective Kang... What are you doing here? And... Pizza?" I asked confused.

"Is that the pizza?" Irene yelled from my bedroom.

"No... It's your sister and her girlfriend." She told her. I was about to correct her but then I remembered that she was the detective assigned in Lisa mother's case. "I told you it was too soon."

"What are you doing here Detective Kang?" I asked again. None of these were making sense. "Did somebody die?"

"Oh... No one died and please call me Seulgi since it was my day off." She explained. "I was with your sister when you called her so she dragged me along."

"Oh! So you're the mystery girl! That she was head over heels with!" I teased. I knew my sister was dating someone but kept her as a secret.

"I don't know what are you talking about." She denied.

Then there was another knock on the door. She thought it was the pizza guy so she offered to get it. Then I noticed that Lisa probably retreated back to their room. Ella was also missing so she's probably sleeping since it was quite late.

"Oh! Paul! What are you doing here?" She asked. So it still was not the pizza guy.

"Seulgi! I'm the one who should be asking you that? I thought it's your day off? What are you doing here?"

I laughed at the partners exchange of words and expressions. It was priceless.

"Detective Simmons... It's nice to see you again! Somebody died again?" I joked. "Come in... Come in..."

"Nobody died but someone's dead." He deadpanned. "I'm here on official businesses... Why are you here Seul?"

"Irene had an emergency. I didn't know she was Jennie's sister until she brought me here."

"How come you didn't know?"

"I don't do background checks on the people I date..." She was even surprised herself on her admission but it was too late to retract.

"Aha! So you admit it! You're dating my sister!" I celebrated in response.

"What's happening?" Irene came out from the room. Her hair was still wet from the shower and thank goodness she was wearing a PJ. "Where's the pizza? And who's he?"

"Seulgi slipped that you guys are dating!" I exclaimed. "And this man is her partner. He's here on official police businesses." I pointed at detective Simmons. "And the pizza Guy's late as usual."

"I'm sorry..." Seulgi said.

"It's okay hon..." Irene replied.

"Ehem..." Detective Simmons cough. "Since everything's been settled, let's talk about the case."

"What is it about?"

"It's all about the man that was arrested in your school."

"What about him?" I asked.

Instead of answering me, he turned to seulgi. "Remember the multiple homicide case that we got last month?" She nodded. "It was him. He's our guy."
