"So what time will Jennie go home? " Jackson asks while we're both playing some video games and it's already midnight. It's always been like this for the past week and it's bothering me a lot.
"I don't know... She does that every day. She'll go to work and she'll go home super late" I said all eyes on the game
"Does it bother you? " Jackson says and the game is all done and we won as usual
"Always... But I'll just wait for her and when I know she's home I'll just go to sleep" I said putting the console down when we both heard the elevator opened so we turn our heads to see a smiling Jennie while she's looking at her phone completely not knowing that we're both here
"Why are you home so late? " Jackson asks making Jennie look at us
"I was at the office" lie
"I was at the office earlier and I found out that you're getting everything complete before 6 pm so you can get off of work early" Jackson says which I didn't know cause he didn't tell me about this earlier. Jennie looked up and rolled her eyes
"It's my private life... Give me a break, I'm finishing everything up anyway before I leave" she said defending herself while I'm just standing there as she keeps taking a glimpse of her phone probably waiting for something
"Have you eaten? " I asked when they stopped arguing... Jennie was about to answer but she received a text so she looks down towards her phone completely ignoring what I just asked. "Jennie, have you eaten already? " I asked once again and this time she put her hand out like gesturing for me to shut up
"Jennie-" I was about to say something again when her phone rings and she put it on her ear

"Yeah? Send me his schedule tomorrow " she said and talked for a bit more before ending the call. I look towards Jackson and I can see the confusion on his face as well
"Who's schedule? " I asked butting in even though I know for sure that she'll be mad
"Someone " she said not saying who it is so I sighed and massaged my temple
"Someone who? " I asked once again
"Lisa can you stop? " she asked annoyed as she glared at me
"No Jennie you are the one who needs to stop " I said clearly annoyed making her look towards me
"What did you just say? " she asked and it's obvious that she's getting mad
"Can you not go home in the middle of the night? Maybe you did forgot that you're living with someone here huh? " I said
"I didn't! And I don't know why the hell are you making a big fuss about me going home in the middle of the night... Who are you anyway?! " she yelled out
"I've been waiting for you every fucking night Jennie! I've been waiting for you to get home safely cause I don't fucking know where on earth are you and I don't know if you're safe and now I'm just asking you a simple question on who's schedule are you asking for but here you are being all bitchy about it! " I felt Jackson's hand on my back but I brushed it off and scoffed
"I'm out to go and see where Kai is and I'm trying to get closer to him every day! Is that what you wanted to hear?! Are you happy now?!" she yelled out and it causes my lungs to get heavy again
"Why the hell are you throwing yourself to a guy who doesn't even give a single fuck about you?! He left you for a long time already, wake the hell up Jennie!" I yelled out back at her

"You don't know how I feel Lisa! So shut the fuck up!"
"Well, how will I care for how you feel if you don't even know my feelings when you mention that Kai's name!" I saw how her face falls and how she stopped and stares at me
"You know what? " I paused calming myself a bit even though my breathing is so heavy right now
"if I can rip my chest off of me and change how I feel I would've done it way before it gets deeper. Do you know how much I fucking regret feeling this way, Jennie? Well, how funny is it that you don't know how I feel. After all, you're too busy chasing someone else cause you only care about yourself " I felt my face getting wet and that's when I know that I'm already crying right in front of her "well I'm sorry that I feel these things towards you, Jennie. It might bother you a lot... I mean it bothers me too. I know that I'm also chasing for the person who doesn't give a damn about how I'm feeling. " I wipe my tears away as I cleared my throat trying to compose myself "don't be way too self-centered Jennie... I know this was just supposed to be work for me but I didn't even know that that'll happen." I don't know how much I tried wiping all of my tears away but they just keep on coming back "I don't know how to make things work in this fucking job if I'm the only one who's trying to keep it. It's already a pain knowing that this is just a job.. nothing more. But it pains me more knowing that you might just break things apart just because you can already have someone that can make you have the company and also someone who you can surely love and someone who can make you smile more than I can. I don't want to stay if you don't want me to. But you can't stop me from feeling all of these. " I said and by that Jackson pulled me out of there leaving Jennie behind

2nd Chance
It's my first time writing a story so you might spot a lot of amateur mistakes but feel free to criticize my writing as much as you like. Anyways, to give you a quick idea of what the story is all about, the original title of this novel was supposed to be "The Yankee in Another World" but when I thought about writing that in the cover I immediately thought 'HELL NAW' and went with a different one and I feel like the new title captures the essence of this story more. because although it's categorized as an Isekai, the story is more focused on redemption rather than the Isekai fantasy. Hopefully, I'll be able to update this synopsis once I thought of one.
