Jenna was doing better than she thought she would after the world came crashing down and it was almost entirely due to Bryce's efforts to get her involved in things that would keep her busy but also potentially become a new passion. Meeting with Killian and finding out about her new restrictions as a permanent member of the program had been a devastating blow.
That was why she finally told him a version of the truth about what was going on with her. She wanted him to understand that she wasn't being difficult on purpose.
