Flashback after the dinner date with Jennie
Lisa's Pov
After I drove Jennie and Liam back home. I went straight to meet my bestfriends. It's been awhile I haven't seen them. After everything that happened with my family.
"Lisashiii"
"Monkeyyy!"
"Hi Rose, Jisoo" I said plainly
"What's up with you?" Jisoo asked as soon as I got in and sat down
"You look like you're lost" Rose said
"I know right" Jisoo continued
"I'm sorry, It's just.." I hesitantly said
"Lis, don't you even miss us?" Rose asked making me look at her
"I fucking know right! You should be embracing us right now!" Jisoo slightly yelled
"I'm sorry..." I sighs and stood up to give them hugs
I honestly didn't know how I was going to do this all... What if I fucked up again? What if things are different now and it doesn't turn how I want it to be?
"Lisa?" Jisoo called me out
"What's bothering you?" She asked again
I stared at her and rose for few seconds before dropping the words that scared me the most
"I'm going to ask her to marry me."
I said straight and stood up walking back and front with my hands on top of my head
"You mean, Jennie?" Rose asked
"Who else would it be Rose.." Jisoo said
"You never know.." Rose said and shrugged her shoulders
"It's Jennie, Alright." I said and continued to panicked
"That's what's been bothering you?" Jisoo asked
"Is it so much of a big deal, you're acting like that?" Rose asked
"Yes, and Yes." I said looking at them like this isn't a big issue
"Then go and marry her Lisa, who's stopping you?" Jisoo said
"No one is. I'm just nervous.."
".. What if she says no?" I continued before sitting down
"Lisa, I'm sure that she loves you" Rose said
"Besides, why would she say no to Liam's daddy" Rose continued
"Because I clearly fucked her up? With our past and everything else.." I said
"Lisa, I'm sure Jennie has moved on." Jisoo said and rose nod
After my conversion with Rose and Jisoo, I left and went straight home
I stood at my balcony as I stare at the simple diamond ring I bought for Jennie while I take a sip of my red wine
"Will you say yes to me Jennie?" I whispered to myself
I put back the ring inside my pocket and returned to my room to rest.
Next day
I only have today to fix everything I needed. I decided I was going to tell my mother and Liam about this. The fact that I know my mom would support me with my decision calms a lot. But it doesn't change the fact that I'm nervous about what Jennie's answer would be.
I know I'm not perfect and I fucked up a lot of times.. what I did to Jennie long ago. I shouldn't even be in her life after everything.
But I can't help it, I love her so much that I'm willing to risk anything.
Even if she says no. At least I asked.
It's just the start of the day. I'm nervous about telling my mom and Liam about the news. I wonder what would Liam say?
"Mom!" I yelled as soon as I got inside her house
"Lisa! I'm here in the kitchen!" My mother yelled making me chuckle
"mom." I said shortly before giving her a kiss in the cheek
"What brought you here?"
"I have something to tell you" I said and she smiled at me as if she knows what was on my mind
"Perhaps, over brunch?" I asked
"Sure sweetie, Go prepare the table for me" She said and I nod before leaving
"So what's this all about?" She asked once we settle down for brunch
"Well mom, I'm about to make a big decision with my life ...again" I stopped
"And.. I'm afraid I might fuck things up... again.." I continued
"And I'm so nervo-"
"Lisa, I'm sure Jennie would say yes." she continued
"Yah.. But the thing is I'm Jus-" I stopped and looked at my mom who is smiling at me right now
"How'd you know?" I frowned
"That's you're going to ask her to marry you?" She asked and I nod
"Lisa, I'm your mother." she said and patted my shoulder to comfort me
I smiled at my mother. She truly understands me without having to hear me out
"Besides, your action says it all." she continued and laugh making me chuckle
"Did you talk to Liam?" She asked and I shook my head no
once again, feeling afraid of what my own son would think and say..
"I'm sure Liam will be excited" she said and I nod slightly
"Thanks mom" I smiled and held her hands
"You have no idea how much this means to me" I continued
Later that day
After spending some quality time with my mother, I left and went straight to my office to fixed everything that needed to be fixed before the proposal. I told everyone except one more important person in my life.
My son, Liam.
Part of me is so excited to tell him because I know that all he wanted was to have a complete family, and I'm going to give him that.
But part of me says he might not want that family with me anymore. Liam's is a very smart kid, He mostly grew up with me and he saw all my flaws in life.. all my mistakes and I don't know if he still accepts me.
But I know he loves me. And that's the only thing I'm holding on to or why I still have my hopes up
So right now, I'm on my way to his school to pick him up, Jennie's at work right now so she has no clue that I informed her friend that I'll be the one picking Liam up.
I also took the opportunity to take him out, anywhere he wanted to go to.
"Daddy!" Liam yelled as soon as he saw him
"Hey Buddie!" I yelled back waiting for him to run to me
"How's school?" I asked
"All good dad!"
"Where's mom?" he asked and I smiled
"Mom's at work, Today it's just you and I ok?" I said making his nod
"Great" I smiled back before letting him inside my car
we arrived at the park. Liam suggest to go to the park since it's been awhile and I couldn't say no to him either ways.
"Dad, I'm happy that you brought me here today" he said while eating his ice cream
"Yeah? You are?" I asked looking at him
"Yeah, I wish mom was here tho" He continued
"Buddie?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't tell mom we met up today ok?" I said and he frowned
"Why dad?" He asked
"Because Dad's planning a surprise for mom, and she doesn't know about it" I said and smiled
"Alright!" He happily said making me chuckle
"Aren't you going to ask me what's my surprise?" I asked
"What is it?"
"Well.. before that.."
"I wanted to ask you something" I continued
"What is it dad?"
"What are your thoughts about having a complete family?" I asked
"Complete family?" He frowned at my question
"Yeah.. Like with you, mom and you know? a dad?" I asked and looked away, trying to avoid eye contact with him
"Well, I love it" He said happily making me smile
"Buddie?"
"Will you be okay if mom and dad gets back together?" I asked while he stares at me
"If mom is happy, I'm happy" He said
"Do you still want me?" I asked
"You've been nothing but a good dad to me daddy"
"I know mommy loves you. And I love you too" He continued making me tear up a little
"So are you okay if I asked mommy to marry me?" He asked
"One condition" he said making me laugh
"I want a baby sister" He said making me laugh even harder
"Dad is going to give you a lot ok!" I happily said making him smile
"I love you so much buddie" I said and hugged him
"I love you to dad!!" He said before hugging me back
