His Past - choiseunghyun daragon gdragon kwonjiyong topbom

*Knock Knock*
A gentle tap on the door was heard when a young man in his late twenties was
busy typing on his laptop in his room.
"Come in!"
The man said without taking his eyes off the laptop in front of him.
"Ahmm...not even bothering to greet your own mother nowadays son!"
An elegant-looking lady in her late forties smiled and walked towards her son,
before leaning against his table.
"Oh Omma...I didnt see you...whats up?"
The man smiled sheepishly and gave his attention immediately, putting off his
work at once.
"Well...I wanted to remind you on your father's 50th birthday party that will
be held in two weeks time..."
The lady reminded as she looked at her son.
"Omma...you had told me like a month ago...I had already keep that in
mind..."
Her son chuckled as he pointed to the side of his head.
"Rascal...are you implying that Omma is old and naggy?"
The lady pretended to frown as she pinched the cheeks of her son.
"No...I wouldnt dare...you looked so young...people would have thought that
you are my elder sister rather than my mother..."
The man smiled as he stood up and threw his arms around his mother. To be
honest, a lot of people really did comment about how young his parents were,
considering the fact that their son was already turning 30 next year.
"You and your sweet tongue...it will be better if you use it on other girls rather
than your mother...so I assume we will be seeing our future daughter-in-law
on your Appa's party?"
The lady said before she looked at her son hopefully.
"What future daughter-in-law?"

The man asked in confusion.

"Hey hey Kwon Jiyong, dont try to trick your omma here...you told us that
time you had a girlfriend when your appa wanted to introduce some girls to
you the other time?"
Mrs Kwon said, trying to trigger his memories.
It then drawn to Jiyong that indeed he had lied to his parents the other day in
order to escape from the matchmaking session his father was trying to get him
to go.
"Oh...I think I did...okie...rest assure that I will bring the woman I loved the
most to meet you guys on that day..."
Jiyong forced out a smile and sat down on his chair, trying to avoid his
mother's gaze.
"Alright...thats good to hear...and...your appa gonna invite Kims too...I think
Taeyeon and Donghae will be there as well...after all...it isnt too nice to leave
them out since we had known each other for so long...but then..of course if it
is bothering you...we can just..you know..."
Mrs Kwon added on as she looked at her son thoughtfully.
These two names tugged his heart instantly.
"Omma...its fine with me...it had already been so long..."
Jiyong muttered as he continued to stare at his laptop.
"Jiyong...I hope you are telling the truth here...you have to accept the fact that
Taeyeon had moved on with Donghae...and I hope you have too..."
His mother said seriously.
"Omma...I already did...didnt I say I will bring my girlfriend on that day...and
you better dont let her know about all this..she is going to get so jealous..."
Jiyong tried to crack a joke before laughing heartily.
"Okie okie...I wont zip my mouth...anyway...I shall get going...dont stay up
too late..."
Mrs Kwon laughed as well before she patted her son's shoulder.
"Yes Mum! You too! Have an early night!"
Jiyong greeted before his mother walked out of his room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note:
Where can Jiyong find a girl to POSE as his 'girlfriend' !!?? LOL
Page 2 of 22
Jiyongs smile faded as soon as his mother stepped out of his room.
Switching off his laptop, he climbed up to his bed wearily.
He seriously didnt have any mood to continue doing his work after the
mention of his ex-lover, Kim Teayeon and his best pal ever since his high
school, Lee DongHae.
He lied on his bed, staring at the ceiling as memories started to flow back to
him instantly.
Thinking back, he and Teayeon had known each other ever since they were
toddlers. Their parents were good friends and both basically grew up in the
presence of one another. As everyone expected, both started dating as soon as
they reached their teenage years. Everyone would have thought of them as the
perfect couple and they thought they were one too.
Everything started to change as soon as Jiyong started to work in his fathers
company. Being a workaholic, he spent most of his days in the office, leaving
hardly any time for the girlfriend of his.
He had taken it for granted that Taeyeon wouldnt mind since they had been
together for so long. He thought that she would understand his situation.
Never did he expect that Taeyeon, just like any other girls who seek
companion of their boyfriend too. She needed him to be there when she was
feeling low. She needed him to be with her when she was feeling helpless.
However, he was never once with her whenever she needed him badly.
Gradually, his role as a boyfriend was replaced by his best pal Donghae who
started to get closer to Taeyeon as the days went by.
No words could describe the pain he was feeling when the two decided to
come clean with him one day. Up rage with what they had done, he couldnt
accept them at first. He hated the two of them for betraying him. Having
punched the guy and chided the girl, he came to realize that he was the one at
fault. He was the one who caused them to fall for each other indirectly.
By the time he came around with things, Taeyeon and Donghae had already
walked down the aisle. As much as he couldnt bear to let go of the woman he
loved the most, he could only wished happiness for them silently inside his
heart.
His heart still ached in pain whenever he sees Taeyeon with Donghae. He is
still very much in love with her up till now, even though he knew he shouldnt.

But then, who could throw away the relationship they had shared with each
other for more than 10 years?
Jiyong wiped the tears that had fallen down from the corner of his eyes
unknowingly. He may seem tough on the outside, but down, deep down within
him, he had a vulnerable side too. He will feel lonely occasionally and needed
someone to be with him. However, he couldnt get into another relationship as
long as the knot inside him remained untied.
It had been hard for him to act strong in front of his parents all this while. He
had to pretend that he had long forgotten the incident when he hardly did.
It was bad enough when he had to face the two of them two weeks later. To
make matter worst, he still has to find a girlfriend in two weeks time as what
he had promised his parents.
Not wanting to think any further, he shook the frustration out of his head. His
eyelid become heavier and he stumbled into his dreamland shortly.
Unknown to him, his tears rolled down from the sides of his eyes slowly,
wetting his pillow.

It was close to 6 in the evening. People could be seen scrambling out of the
office building hurriedly, waiting to rush for dates with their loved one.
Jiyong sat alone in the office, staring out at his full length windows, as if deep
in thoughts.
"Maybe I can just say she is away for a business trip!"
He thought silently. He was still pondering on the issue of how he was going to
bring his "virtual" girlfriend to meet his parents.
However, he gave up the idea quickly as soon as he thought of how
disappointed they are going to be if that really happened. They had been
pinning their hopes on his marriage ever since he gotten together with
Taeyeon. He had already let them down once and he certainly didnt wish that
there is a second time.
Turning his chair around, he put his head onto the table in frustration,
swivelling his handphone on it repeatedly.
"Maybe..I can just find someone to pose as my girlfriend!"
He brightened up with his idea immediately. However, he sighed as soon as he
thought of who was going to do the job.
Scrolling through his contacts on his handphone, he hoped to a suitable
candidates among his friends. However, most of them in his list were either

married or already have a stable boyfriend. It didnt seem too right for him to
carry out his sudden request.
Just as he was racking his brains, the ringing tone and vibration of his
handphone startled him.
Looking at name appearing on the screen, he broke into a smile before he
pressed the answered key.
----------------------------------------------------------Jiyong walked into the pub slowly. Scanning through the human crowd, he
finally saw the one who dated him here.
"Wow...wow...its so hard to date our Young Master Kwon nowadays!"
Seunghyun nudged his arms as soon as Jiyong reached the counter, standing
in front of him.
"Come on dear, you know who he is! I bet he must be too busy handling
different women each day!"
Bom, Seunghyun girlfriend, said before chuckling loudly.
"Is that how you guys welcome me?"
Jiyong blushed a little at their teasing before he broke into a wide grin finally.
The couple were the owner of the pub, and they had been friends with Jiyong
ever since they were in high school. They are like a big brother and big sister
to Jiyong.
"Alright alright! Our little Jiyong is still so shy as before! So man...how are
you?"
Seunghyun chuckled as well before pulling a seat out for him.
"Well...work is still the same...but I wouldnt say so for my life...you know...my
parents is rushing me again..."
He said restlessly.
"Well...just bring them a girlfriend then...you are not young anymore too..."
Seunghyun said before he signalled his waiter to prepare some drinks for
them.
"I wish it was that easy..."
He rolled his eyes at him before he slumped back onto the seat.

"Come on Jiyong! You are a prince charming! Every girls dying to get into
your pants man.. Dont try to say you cannot find!"
Bom noona exclaimed as she looked at him.
"Come on honey! It isnt the first day you know him! He must still be in love
with that woman..."
Seunghyun added on before he looked at him as well.
"Please...just drop that subject...I need you guys to help me...I promised my
parents that I will bring a girlfriend to them on my dad's 50th birthday two
weeks later..."
Jiyong said as he took a sip at the drink which arrived a few seconds earlier.
"Thats easy...just find any girl to pose for you...."
Seunghyun suggested easily.
"I had thought of that too...but the problem is...who is going to do the job..."
Jiyong muttered.
"Hmm...just pick any of your girl-friends..."
Bom proposed helpfully.
"There is no suitable one...most of them are already married..."
He shook his head before saying.
"Erm....maybe you can help me...Bom noona..."
Jiyong suggested cheekily as he pointed to her.
"Hey hey....are you treating me as dead here..."
Seunghyun spoke out hurriedly as he pulled his girlfriend close to him.
He was a big male chauvinist and certainly couldnt stand any guys close to his
girl, not even if they were merely acting.
"Sorry Jiyong...."
Bom shrugged her shoulders before she smiled at him helplessly.
"Is that how you help your dongseng..."
Jiyong frowned as he stared at his friend next.

"Well...at most I try to find you some girls..."

He offered.
"You better honour your promise....Bom noona...be my witness..."
Jiyong replied.
"Well..sure..."
Bom agreed straight away.
----------------------------------------------------------"Hey Jiyong, play us a song! It had been a while since we last heard you!"
Bom urged after a while.
"Nah...my skills had gone rusty already..."
Jiyong shook his head shyly.
"Dont try to bluff us...you know yourself...come on..."
Seunghyun added on as he dragged Jiyong to the stage.
______________________________________
Note:
Any ideas which BB or GD songs that Jiyong can sing? Must be sad songs..
Where is DARA? Will Jiyong able to get a GIRL?
Page 4 of 22
Jiyong bowed shyly to the crowd, before settling down in front of the piano.
He opened the cover slowly and rested his fingers on the familiar keys before
he started playing while he sings.
The winter had passed
And the spring has come
We have withered
And our hearts are bruised from longing
(Im singing my blues)
Used to the blue tears, blue sorrow
(Im singing my blues)
The love that I have sent away with the floating clouds, oh oh
Memories started to flow back to him instantly in the midst of his songs,
especially those he once shared with Taeyeon. She was the main source of

happiness for him in the past, and so the pain of losing her was so great that
he couldnt handle when it first happened. To make matter worst, his girl left
for his best buddy, the one whom he had trusted so wholeheartedly before.
The once noisy crowd went into a piece of silence as soon as he sang the
chorus. Each and every single words brought out his misses and longing for
the woman he loved the most.
The melody of the song was so beautiful yet heart-wrenching.
Dara stepped into the pub just when Jiyong reached the chorus.
Captivated by the melody and voice, she tried to make her way through the
crowd, wanting to see who the person was on the stage.
However, she gave up finally when it was totally impossible to move in front
with all the people crowding there.
She only managed to find some space at a corner far away from the stage.
Standing there, she enjoyed herself with the rest of his performance.
Although Dara couldnt see how he looked like, she could feel his pain just by
listening to him. After all, she had gone through the pain of losing someone
dear to her in the past.
----------------------------------------------------------The crowd roared and cheered loudly when Jiyong finished his last verse.
Thanking the people bashfully, Jiyong scrambled down the stage hurriedly.
Dara started to scan through the people, trying find the familiar person who
asked to meet him here.
Finally, her eyes set at the guy near the counter and walked towards him.
"Aww...what took you so long! I thought you get lost again!"
Seunghyun frowned at his god sister as soon as he saw her. This scatterbrain
had always made him worry for her.
"Come on Oppa! Its not as if I am a baby! Right Bom unnie?"
Dara chuckled as she sat down beside them.
"Yeah...I had told him to stop worrying..."
Bom agreed as she nodded her head.
"Please! You had just returned from Canada after so many years...I am just
afraid that you will lose your way here....and what happened to the handphone
of yours?"

Seunghyun chided her slightly as he had been trying to reach her for the past
few hours.
"Oops...I think I left it at home..."
Dara said cheekily as she stuck out her tongue.
"See what I mean!"
Seunghyun rolled his eyes at her, before shaking his head leading all to laugh
heartily.
----------------------------------------------------------"Right! Oppa...who was the guy on stage just now? Is he your new pianist?"
Dara asked after a while of their chatting.
"You reminded me! I haven introduce you guys yet.... Jiyong.....come over
here..."
Seunghyun snapped his fingers at Jiyong, who was busy dedicating song at
the machine.
Dara turned her head curiously, turning into the direction where Seunghyun
was looking.
Page 5 of 22
"Jiyong...meet my god-sis Sandara...and Dara...this is Kwon Jiyong...my
buddy whom I had always talked to you about..."
Seunghyun did an introduction on the two, as soon as Jiyong walked over to
the counter.
Once their eyes met each other, both widened in surprised.
Its you?
The two said in unison.
You knew each other?
Seunghyun and Bom asked in surprise at the same time.
Well....it doesnt really counts....
Jiyong muttered shyly.
-----------------------------------------------------------

*Flashback*
Opps, I am so sorry! Did I hurt you?
Jiyong apologized to the lady he just knocked into, where she happened to
bump into him when both turned around the corner on the street.
Nope, I was at fault too!
Dara said before she smiled sweetly at him.
At the first glance, she reminded him of Taeyeon instantly, as both shared the
same petite size, big shiny eyes as well as the same sweet smile.
Hello Sir! Its there anything on the face? Why do you keep on staring at me?
Dara waved her hands in front of him after a while when she felt him staring
at her, before asking curiously.
Jiyong avoided her eyes immediately as he moved a little backward, blushing
profusely after her words.
No...No...sorry
Jiyong stuttered badly as his face blushed further.
Chuckling at how shy this guy could be, Dara walked away amusingly after a
quick goodbye.
* End of flashback*
----------------------------------------------------------"Its such a coincidence!"
Seunghyun chuckled after hearing their story.
"And Dara...he was the one who played on stage just now...its awesome isnt
he?"
Bom added on as she looked at Dara, before turning to smile at Jiyong.
"Really...you played very well...it such a nice song...."
Dara exclaimed in surprise as she praised Jiyong, overwhelmed by his talent.
"No...Its nothing...it just some random music I made up with..."
Jiyong shook his head and flushed a little with her commend, before rubbing
his neck shyly.

"Aww...Jiyong....you are blushing again...Dara..have you seen such a shy guy?"

Seunghyun teased as he patted Jiyong's shoulders.
"Yeah...this guy here had always been so shy with women...especially pretty
ones...."
Bom added on and teased their old friend further.
Jiyong nudged his elbow on Seunghyun's chest, before rolling his eyes at Bom,
as if telling them to shut up.
Dara broke into a smile at the sight of three of them. In fact, she had already
noticed how shy he was on their first encounter.
----------------------------------------------------------Oh yes! Why didnt I think of that! Jiyong...I found someone to help you!
Seunghyun exclaimed suddenly in the midst of their chatting, before turning
his head to Jiyong.
"Right! We should have thought of that!"
Bom caught his meaning immediately and nodded her head in agreement.
Dara looked at the two in confusion, as a big question mark surfaced in her
head.
Dara...be Jiyongs girlfriend!
Seunghyun added on, before patting his sister on her shoulders.
Page 6 of 22
Jiyong and Dara almost spat out their drinks at the same time after his words,
looking at each other in embarrassment before turning their eyes at the
culprit.
"Hey hey...dont get me wrong...I mean posing only..."
Seunghyun quickly explained, after being stared by them.
Upon hearing him, Jiyong muttered a soft "oh" while Dara continued to look
at them in confusion.
"What are you talking about?"
Dara asked as she knitted her eyebrow at her brother.
"Well...Jiyong promised to bring a girlfriend home on his dads birthday party
two weeks later..."

Seunghyun explained.
"And then?"
Dara probed, still not getting his meaning.
"Dara...to put it simply...Jiyong needs you to pose as his girlfriend!"
Bom added on, in hope of giving her a clearer picture.
"Oh...pose as his girlfriend....WHAT.. YOU MEAN ME?"
Dara said nonchalantly at first, but her eyes widened and exclaimed after she
got their meaning.
"Yes you! You are the most suitable candidate here!"
Seunghyun nodded as he pointed at his sister.
"But why me? Bom unnie can also do the job...after all.. she and Jiyong are
more familiar with each other...they will look more natural together..."
Dara suggested.
Come on sweetie....you should know she is attached to me already....
Seunghyun said before he frowned at his younger sister.
"So...you want me to sacrifice myself then? What kind of brother are you!"
Dara said sarcastically before rolling her eyes at Seunghyun.
No Dara...dont get me wrong... its just that you are single and available at
the moment...so I think you will be able to play the role better....and I am not
pushing you to any random guy out there...Jiyong is my buddy....
Seunghyun explained hurriedly to appease his little sister.
I cant Oppa....you should know how bad I am at lying....I will surely let the
cats out of the bag sooner or later..."
Dara said as she avoided their eyes, taking a sip of her drink.
Dara....you dont have to worry anything about that...Bom and I will train you
guys to look like a real couple during this period... dont forget we still have
two weeks to go...
Seunghyun encouraged hopefully.

"I still think I am not up to the job....you know how clumsy I am when it
comes to big function....it isnt too nice to bring home someone like me...you
are not going to please your parents...
Dara continued to cook up excuses, as she looked at Jiyong apologetically.
Come on Dara....you just have to show your face at the party with
Jiyong...thats all...right Jiyong? Say something...dont you need her help
badly?
Bom added on as she turned her attention to Jiyong who had been keeping
quiet.
Its alright if she is not comfortable with the idea...I am sure I can think of
some other way...erm...excuse me...I am going for the washroom...
Jiyong forced out a smile before walking away quickly. He seriously needed to
get away from them for a moment. It had been embarrassing enough for him
just now, when she refused to help him. He couldnt blame her though. Who
would agree to this ridiculous request out of a sudden when she barely knows
him?
------------------------------------------Sorry, short updates again...all chapter will be short be aware LOL ><
bomb me with lots of comments so i might update everyday!!

"Jiyong...."
Seunghyun and Bom called out at the same time, as soon as he walked off
from his seat.
However, Jiyong pretended not to hear them, before making his way faster.
"Dara...couldnt you just lend him a helping hand....look how dejected he is
now..."
Seunghyun shook his head as he chided his sister slightly, after Jiyong was
totally out of their sight.
"Oppa...Its not that I dont want to help him...its just that I might spoil the
entire plan...you know I am bad at lying and pretending...."
Dara pouted as she tried to defend herself, feeling a little guilty after seeing
Jiyong's despondent face just now.
"Dara....you are thinking too far....you just need to go home with Jiyong and
show your pretty face to his parents.. as simple as that...."

Bom chuckled at Dara's worries, before pushing her head a little playfully.
"I guess it wont take his life even if he did not manage to get a girl home
right...I dont think his parents will be killing him over this small matter..."
Dara replied casually as she took a sip of her drink.
"It is easy for you to say that Dara...you dont know his past...this poor guy
used to have a girlfriend whom he had dated for more than 10 years...but in
the end....she chose to leave him for his best buddy...giving him an excuse
saying that he had neglected her over the years...Jiyong had not be able to get
into another relationship since then...as his heart is still thinking of her up till
today...his parents had been very worried for him and had been trying hard to
introduce girls to him....in order to stop them....Jiyong had no other
alternative but to lie to them that he had a girlfriend already...but then...they
wanted him to show them on this coming party...if he didnt.. I bet his parents
are going to get so disappointed with him..."
Seunghyun explained.
"Aww....it must be so hurting to know his girlfriend dating his best buddy..."
Dara frowned as she replied.
"Indeed it was....I heard that they had gotten married recently...you heard the
song just now right.. it was composed on the day of their marriage..."
Bom added on.
"No wonder...the song is just so heart wrenching..."
Dara muttered softly.
"Jiyong was well-known for his filial piety...so he had been racking his brain
trying to get a girl home in hope of doing his parents proud..."
Seunghyun continued the conversation.
Cupping her chin in both her hands rested on the table, Dara went deep in
thoughts. She felt so sorry for him suddenly, after hearing his past. She
couldnt believe that a man could be so faithful towards a woman, even if she
left him for some other man.
----------------------------------------------------------"Jiyong.....good news...Dara agree to help you...."
Seunghyun said happily as soon as Jiyong sat back onto his seat.
"You do...?"

Jiyong asked cautiously as he looked at Dara in surprise.

Dara nodded her head, before giving him the sweetest smile.
*** Flashback ***
"Oppa...Ara, I think I will help him..."
Dara said after a while of silence. She felt that he deserved her help, especially
after knowing how sentimental he was. None of her boyfriend was this loyal
towards relationships in the past and she couldnt help but to admire his
faithfulness towards the woman he loved.
"Really....I know it Dara...you are my greatest sis.."
Seunghyun cheered loudly, before ruffling her hair in delight.
His action made Dara broke into a wide smile.
"Jiyong is going to get so happy once he knows..."
Bom added on and she chuckled as well.
*** End of flashback ***
"Thank you so much...."
Jiyong smiled gratefully, as a dimple appeared on his right cheek.
He felt so light suddenly, as if a heavy burden had been removed from him
instantly.
----------------------------------------------------------"Okie...let me draw up a contract..."
Seunghyun said after a while of silence.
"Contract?"
Jiyong and Dara said in unison.
"Hmm...I shall call it a love contract....in there... rules and regulations will be
drawn up...just to protect both of your rights..."
Seunghyun suggested thoughtfully.
"Is there a need to...?"
Jiyong lifted one of his eyebrow and asked doubtfully.

"Of course....it will be fairer to both of you in this way..."

Seunghyun said before he took some paper from one of his waiter.
-------------------------------------------Dara definitely AGREE!!!
What should i put inside the Contract? hmmm
Thanks for comments.. Pls subcribe and upvote tooo....

"Finally done....
Seunghyun announced proudly after a while, before passing the paper to
them.
The Jiyong and Dara took over and read the content curiously at the same
time.

----------------------------------------------------------"So, any problem with that? If you guys have no objection, please go ahead

Seunghyun broke the silence at last, when the Jiyong and Dara were still busy
reading the words on the paper.
Oppa...Its only acting...what are these conditions for...
Dara shook her head unbelievingly, blushing at the thoughts of holding hands
with a man she barely knew.
Yeah...its not as if we will be doing any of the above. I just need her to be her
presence at the party.....
Jiyong added on shyly before he took a quick glance at Dara who avoided his
gaze quickly.
"Come on guys! We have to give it the best shot even if it is only acting! Do you
think your parents will be convincing if you were to bring Dara to meet them
in this manner? You guys totally looked as if you are strangers!
Seunghyun exclaimed as he looked at the pair.
Yeah....Seunghyun is right....you guys need some touching up to fool the
crowd...
Bom nodded in agreement.
Alright alright! Enough saying! Just put down your names down....
Jiyong....why arent your hands moving...dont tell me you are scared of being
cheated... Dara..you too..."
Seunghyun chuckled as he looked at the both who were pondering.
"Nah...There is nothing to lose on my side...its me who needs her help...but
then...you dont have to sign if you dont wish to....I mean you can drop out
anytime if you find the plan uncomfortable..."
Jiyong looked at Dara thoughtfully.
"Hey hey Jiyong...dont try to act cool here...dont come crying for me when
she decided to quit on you within these two weeks....thats why I put in the
breach of contract...."
Seunghyun chided him slightly.
"Oppa...am I such a person....I wont quit on him since I had already agree to
help...anyway... here you go..."
Dara said before she put her name on the paper.
After her, Jiyong did the same before he shoved back the paper to Seunghyun,
who signed as the witness.

----------------------------------------------------------"So what am I supposed to do now?"

Dara asked after some time.
"Okie...let Teacher Choi start the 1st lesson....hmm.. well...we will touch on
getting to know you better..."
Seunghyun announced proudly.
The two looked at each other blankly, before turning their attention to
Seunghyun again.
"Oh gosh! Dont tell me you guys had never dated before... You two looked as
if you this is your first love..."
Seunghyun chuckled at the two, and stopped as soon as he received glaring
stares from them.
"Hey honey....stop teasing them already...well...just let each other know more
about yourself...for example... where you guys are staying...your likes &
dislikes...your hobbies...and anything you can think of...."
Bom suggested helpfully.
The two nodded and started their lesson, beginning with their personal
particulars.
---------------------------------------------------------"Alright....testing time..."
Seunghyun clapped his hands for their attention after some time.
"Yup...1st question....Jiyong....when did your girlfriend went to Canada?"
Bom looked at the question she was holding in her hands, before looking at
Jiyong.
"Huh...did she...did you Dara...aww...we didnt touch on this..."
Jiyong muttered as he scratched his head in confusion, after Dara nodded her
head.
"Lets jump to Dara next....erm...well...this question should be easy...when is
your boyfriend's birthday?"
Seunghyun looked at Dara as he asked.

"Err....I think...18...erm...should be Sep 18...."

Dara made a wild guess after looking at Jiyong, who was busy hinting to her
with his fingers.
"My god...you guys are going to get exposed immediately.."
Seunghyun shook his head before looking at the two.
---------------------------------------------------------Having no alternative, the Jiyong and Dara could only practise harder.
It was a little awkward at first, but then, things started to improve when the
two began to open more to each other as the time went by.
----------------------------------------------------------"We shall call it a day....the lesson will resume tomorrow....lets go home
now...Bommie..."
Seunghyun said just after the clock struck one in the morning.
Bom nodded as she stood up with Seunghyun tiredly.
"Oppa...arent you sending me back?"
Dara asked as she stood up as well.
"Its your BOYFRIEND's job now...he had the responsibility to fetch you...and
Jiyong..I will hand my sister to you for these two weeks...make sure you take
good care of her ara..."
Seunghyun said as he pushed Dara to him slightly.
Looking at each other, both could only blushed slightly at his words.
"Erm...sorry to trouble you then, Jiyong..."
Dara forced a smile awkwardly before she looked at him.
Just before he could replied Seunghyun interrupted him.
"Hey hey...what did you just call him Dara?"
He frowned before he looked at his sister.
"Jiyong...isnt that his name?"
Dara asked in surprise, and Jiyong looked at him in surprise too.

"I dont think a couple deep in love will call each other so politely... please use
terms like honey, dear, sweetheart, darling or even baby....anything except
your name...it sounded so formal..."
Seunghyun explained.
"Yeah..its quite true also..."
Bom agree as she smiled at the two.
"Huh...but that is so mushy..."
Jiyong and Dara blurted out at the same time.
"Whatever...but then...during the training...you guys are not allowed to call
each other your names except those terms I mentioned earlier on..."
Seunghyun insisted before he walked away with his girlfriend.
------------------------------------Contract Done !!! ... LOL
What should they calll each other? I think Honey and Darling too common..
any ideas?

The next day, Jiyong went to the pub after his work, waiting for his second
lesson to be conducted.
Wheres Bom and Dara?
Jiyong asked curiously and looked around the pub, when he didnt catch the
sight of Bom and Dara.
What kind of boyfriend are you? Didnt you know that your girlfriend had
gone shopping with mine?
Seunghyun teased as he passed a drink to him.
Come on, we are just acting....dont sound as if we are really together....
Jiyong frowned and shook his head disapprovingly, before taking a sip of his
drink.
Hello...can you be more serious...even if you guys are only acting....you got to
play your role well..."
Seunghyun said seriously.
Jiyong looked at him blankly before he shrugged his shoulders.

Anyway....I guess you had come empty-handed huh?

Seunghyun probed as he looked at his hands.
Yeah.....you are not expecting any present from me...are you....
Jiyong put up his hands playfully in front of him before chuckling.
Stop playing...its not funny...
Seunghyun rolled his eyes before he shoved his hands away.
Not me...I really pity Dara for agreeing to help you....you dont even have a
stalk of flower for her on your very first date....
Seunghyun added on as he shook his head.
Come on....as I had said....we are only....
Jiyong tried to explain once again, but was cut off by his friend.
Ah...ah...don't keep giving yourself that excuse...you got to put yourself into
the scenario to play your role well...anyway enough saying....lets go and get
something for your girlfriend....as well as mine....
Seunghyun announced as he wiped his hands with the towel on the table.
Before Jiyong could even protest, his buddy had already dragged him out of
the pub.
----------------------------------------------------------The two walked to the next street, and stopped in front of the florist store.
Come in, pick something for Dara...
Seunghyun said to Jiyong, as soon as they stepped inside the shop.
Huh...I dont...
Just as Jiyong wanted to say he doesnt know anything about flowers, his
buddy had already scurried in front, busy choosing his present for Bom.
Jiyong could only walk around the store on his own, exploring the different
kind of flowers that came into his sight.
Hey, finished choosing?
Seunghyun asked as he stood beside him after some time, with a beautiful
bouquet of flowers in his arms.

You are not expecting me to carry this right...it is so girlish..."

Jiyong frowned as he looked at the flowers his buddy was holding in his arms.
Goodness...you are such a boring guy...I wonder who will like
you....anyway...if you are not going to choose...I will help you take
this...miss...."
Seunghyun threatened and called out to the store owner, before he pulled up a
stalk of white chrysanthemum from the pail.
Are you crazy...that is for praying to the dead...forget it...I will choose
myself....
Jiyong stopped the lady anxiously as he hit his friend hardly on his chest,
before moving on to the roses section.
----------------------------------------------------------Aww....never thought a blockhead like you can choose such beautiful
flowers....
Seunghyun teased Jiyong as they were walking back to the pub.
Stop your crap....can you please hurry up...people are staring at us....
Jiyong blushed shyly as he looked at the people who were staring at the
flowers he was holding in his hands.
Hey hey...dont walk so fast....wait for me...
Seunghyun laughed at his friend in amusement, before running a little to
catch up with him.
----------------------------------------------------------Why are you so shy...its perfectly normal for us to carry things like this...
Seunghyun said to Jiyong, as soon as they stepped into the pub.
You still say...it is all your fault that I am being stared as if I am a weirdo...
Jiyong chied before he rolled his eyes at his friend, as if blaming him for the
loss of his face on the street just now.
Bom and Dara were already in the pub by the time the guys were back.
As soon as Jiyong saw Dara, he hid the flowers behind his back immediately.
Dear...where have you guys been...?

Bom asked when the guys came over to their seats.

Getting something for you...like it honey?
Seunghyun grinned as he passed the bouquet of flowers to his girlfriend.
Oh...it's so pretty....thank you dear...
Bom smiled as she gave a peck on his cheek lovingly.
"Bom unnie...dont forget there are still people around..."
Dara teased as she looked at the couple in front of her.
Bom shrugged her shoulders before smiling bashfully.
You dont talk so much...its going to be your turn soon...
Seunghyun said as he pushed Jiyong in front of him.
Not knowing what he meant by that, Dara stuck out her tongue at him
playfully.
----------------------------------------------------------Come on Jiyong...quick....we are running late for our next lesson....
Seunghyun urged when Jiyong still stood rooted to the ground without doing
anything after a while.
He then pushed out Jiyong's hands which were holding the bouquet of flowers
behind his back.
The three pairs of eyes fell on Jiyong instantly before they stopped on the
bouquet of flowers in his hands, causing him to flush badly with their stares.
"Erm...its for you..."
Jiyong muttered bashfully as he shoved the bouquet of flowers in front of her
in fluster.
For me....?
Daras eyes widened in surprise as her face reddened instantly with his words.
After all, it came just too sudden for her to handle.
Aww...its so sweet of you Jiyong...how did you know Dara likes pink
roses...did you hint to him dear...?"
Bom exclaimed as she looked at Seunghyun.

"No...This guy picked himself...maybe it is what we call fate..."

He teased as he patted Jiyong's shoulders.
"Stop your nonsense...
Jiyong muttered as he stared at Seunghyun.
"Dara...arent you going to accept the flowers...his hands is going to break off
anytime...
Seunghyun chuckled as he pointed to Jiyong's hands, leading Bom to laugh as
well.
"Opps..sorry...thank you Jiyong..."
She smiled awkwardly before she took over the flowers from him.
"No more names you remember..."
Seunghyun reminded as he looked at his sister.
"Oppa...please...were only acting..."
Dara protested immediately.
"I know you guys will play dirty...lucky I forced you to sign the contract...you
must listen to the trainers... thank you who?"
Seunghyun insisted.
Dara passed a quick glance at Jiyong, who was rubbing his neck uneasily,
blushing as well.
"Come on Dara...dont be shy...as you say..its only acting...its just for
fun...thank you who?"
Bom joined in and teased her further.
"Thank you...Ji Oppa..."
Dara muttered so softly that one could hardly hear and flushed badly.
"Didnt you say we are running late...lets go..."
Dara added on before she scurried in front of them hurriedly.
"Aww...look how shy your girlfriend is...still standing here for what...go after
her..."

Seunghyun chuckled as he hit Jiyong lightly on his arm, before he pushed him
in front.

"Erm...sorry about that..."
Jiyong said softly and scratched his head shyly, as he walked beside Dara
along the streets.
Seunghyun and Bom were walking behind the duo, enjoying looking at the
"newly formed couple" whom they had created.
"Nah.. its okie...I should be the one feeling bad that you had to spend on
this...I bet is my Oppa's idea again right....you dont have to listen to him in
future..."
Dara smiled bashfully, before she pointed to the flowers in her hands.
"No...dont put this to heart...its just a little token... I should be the one
thanking you for agreeing to do me this great favor..."
Jiyong replied and returned her smile.
----------------------------------------------------------"Hey hey....had you guys forgotten that your training had already
started....what happened to your hands..."
Seunghyun and Bom went up to the Jiyong and Dara after a while, before he
lifted his interlocked hands with his girlfriend.

"Oppa...surely there is not a need for us to do this right...after all...we are only
acting...and some more the show to his parents is just going to be a few
hours...."
Dara protested immediately and looked at Seunghyun.
"Yeah right...bro...no one will be able to tell that we are a fake one..."
Jiyong added on in agreement.
"Come on...you guys looked so polite and shy with one another...with one
look...one would have guessed that you are not a couple....I bet your parents
will see through you immediately too..."
Seunghyun exclaimed as he looked at the two.
"Yeah...dear is right...you guys still need some practises... come on...just give
your best...it doesnt hurt anyone."
Bom said helpfully, before she placed Dara's hand into Jiyong's.
Dara's heart skipped a beat as soon as she touched Jiyong's hands. After all, it
had been a long time since she was last held by a guy.
Jiyong was no better. His heart was thumping so fast that he almost stopped
breathing at that instant.
"Alright...lets go...the movie is starting..."
Seunghyun announced in content before he led his girlfriend to walk in front
of them.
The duo avoided each other's gaze awkwardly when they accidentally met
occasionally. Holding their hands stiffly, they continued the rest of their
journey in silence.
----------------------------------------------------------"What movie are we catching?"
Dara asked just when they were about to enter into the theatre.
"This..."
Seunghyun pointed to the advertisement, after he passed the tickets to the
usher.
"Huh...Oppa...you know that I dread horror movie.. aish you still choose
this...are you picking on me..."
Dara pouted as she looked at Seunghyun with her puppy eyes.

Her look was so innocent and cute at this moment, and Jiyong couldnt help
but to chuckle at the sight of her.
"Dont be such a scaredy cat...look...even your boyfriend is laughing at you..."
Seunghyun teased as he winked at Jiyong.
"Hey...dont put words into my mouth...I didnt say that..."
Jiyong shook his head and waved his hands playfully.
---------------------------------------------------------"Hey...why arent we seating in the same row..."
Jiyong asked after they sat on the fifth row, while Seunghyun and Bom sat a
row in front of them.
"Come on....is it your wish to be a light bulb..."
Seunghyun retorted to him sarcastically, before passing him a packet of
popcorn, together with a cup of coke.
Jiyong rolled his eyes at him before he took over the snacks.
"Wheres mine?"
Dara looked at Seunghyun, asking for her food item.
"Share with your boyfriend...you see any couple eating two sets...aish"
Seunghyun knocked her head lightly before he pointed to Jiyong.
"Fine..."
Dara folded her arms as she sat back onto her seat.
----------------------------------------------------------"Sorry..."
Dara smiled sheepishly as she whispered to Jiyong, when her hands
accidentally touched his for the umpteen time when taking the popcorn during
the movie.
Jiyong shook his head as he smiled shyly.
It was not long when the movie reached its climax. The scene was much more
horrendous than what Dara had initially imagined. Even Jiyong was a little
taken aback by the sound effect.

What made the surrounding even creepier was the lack of people watching the
movie at this time.
Curling herself in her seat, Dara closed her eyes and covered her face with her
hands whenever the ghostly figure appeared.
Jiyong glanced at her occasionally in the dark, and his urge to protect her
surged whenever he saw her terrified face.
"Are you very scared?"
Jiyong couldnt control himself and asked softly after some time.
Dara nodded as she looked at him weakly.
Just then, one shrieking scream coming from the big screen echoed the entire
theatre, making Dara shivered even further.
"You can move closer if you dont mind...."
Jiyong whispered as he took up the handle that were separating their seats.
Nodding earnestly, she nudged closer to him quickly. It definitely felt better to
have someone beside you at this moment, when the whole row is empty.
Unknowingly, Dara started to hug his arms after some time, hiding her face on
his shoulders occasionally whenever she was scared stiff.
---------------------------Short update.. bet u gals miss this so much~~~
Comments welcome!!.... more more more pls!
Page 11 of 22
Time flew in a wink.
It had been over a week since the Jiyong and Dara started their trainings.
From the initial awkward atmosphere between the two, their relationship had
moved to a new edge over the days.
The duo had definitely grown much closer together now, after opening
themselves to each other with Seunghyun and Bom's constant pushing.
They seemed to have so much to talk each time they met, so much so that one
would have thought that they had dated each other for years.
Jiyong was not a man who will open himself so readily to a girl within such a
short period of time. However, Dara managed to convince him.

Maybe it was because of the similarities she shared with Taeyeon that made
him so comfortable with her. Each and every actions of her simply reminded
him of Taeyeon, so much so that he couldnt control but to drawn himself to
her.
----------------------------------------------------------It was a Saturday afternoon.
The four had arranged to meet in the theme park, to enjoy a day of relaxing
activities that were awaiting for them.
Dara was walking to and fro impatiently in front of the entrance, waiting for
arrival of Jiyong.
Seunghyun and Bom had long went into the park, busy enjoying those
thrilling rides.
"Sorry Baby girl, I am late...."
Jiyong smiled apologetically at Dara, and panted a little with his running.
He had given her the nickname, after Seunghyun insisted that they were not
allowed to call each other by their names. So Jiyong decide to call Dara, Baby
girl
"Its not late...it is very late..."
Dara folded her arms as she pointed to her watch. It had passed more than
half an hour from the time they had agree to meet.
"Sorry...I was held up by some clients just now...didnt I told you to join
Seunghyun and Bom first?"
Jiyong asked curiously as he looked at her.
"I dont wish to be such a big light bulb..."
She explained. In fact, she knew she wouldnt enjoy herself without his
companion.
"Alright alright...I know it is all my fault...will this make up to you?"
Jiyong pulled out a tiny santokki plush toy from his pocket, before holding it
in front of her.
"Aww...its so cute...."
Her eyes brightened up immediately with her newly present, after taking it
from him.

"Come on! Lets go inside...."

Jiyong announced after a while and grabbed her hands before they run into
the park.
As she glanced at their interlocking hands along the way, a smile was formed
on her face instantly for some reason, still unknown to her.
----------------------------------------------------------"Lets take that!"
Jiyong stopped behind a line of people, before he pointed to the roller coaster.
"Huh...can we skip that?"
Dara pouted as she pleaded at him with her puppy eyes.
"Why..oh...I guess someone is scare hmm..."
Jiyong chuckled as he pinched her cheeks gently.
"Its not funny..."
Dara pouted at him before she rolled her eyes.
"Okie..okie...but lets give it a try alright baby girl....come on...dont worry..I
am just beside you..."
Jiyong persuaded as he looked at her encouragingly.
Slowly, she nodded her head after hearing his words. His presence beside her
certainly made her forget everything she feared.
----------------------------------------------------------"See...told you there is nothing to be scared about..."
Jiyong smirked proudly after they came down from the ride.
Indeed, it was a lot better than what Dara had initially imagined.
"Yeah..yeah...you win..."
Holding hands walking side by side, she stuck out her tongue playfully at him.
Before he knew it, Dara wriggled out of his grab and ran away from him.
"Hey you...stop...wait for me..."

Jiyong shouted, before chasing after her hurriedly.

----------------------------------------------------------"Sorry...."
Dara said right after she knocked onto someone along the way.
"Hey you...look where you are going..."
A voice cursed loudly at her.
As their eyes met, it was the man she feared to meet again.
It was her ex-boyfriend, Lee Minho whom she had dated in Canada during her
school days.
This man was a big flirt, unknown to her at that time.
"Oh...its you...you came back to Seoul too..."
Minho smirked as he looked at her.
"Yeah..."
She muttered softly and avoided his gaze.
"Darling...who is this woman?"
A woman dressed skimpily beside him asked, before scanning Dara from head
to toe rudely.
"Oh...just one of the girls I dated in the past..."
Minho chuckled impolitely as he explained.
"She...oh my...you had such a good taste..."
The woman sneered sarcastically before the two broke into laughter.
Dara could only stood there helplessly, as she lowered her head in humiliation
in front of the two.
"Honey...dont say that...she had her good points too.. just that...well...she can
get a little boring at times..."
Minho pretended to defend Dara at first, but then put her down further later
on, leading his current girlfriend to mock loudly at her.
Dara bit her lips in frustration, as tears were about to well up in her eyes.

"Anyway... did you come here alone...no guys came with you isnt it...or you
cant find anyone else after me..."
Minho added on as he smirked at her, before pulling his girlfriend close to
him, as if showing off to her.
Dara could only swallowed back the hurt she was feeling and started to walk
away from the two.
----------------------------------------------------------Standing behind the three, Jiyong could no longer curb back the anger that
was rising in him.
He didnt know the two person, but then, they seemed to be so mean with
their words.
Storming up angrily, he decided to give them a little lesson for bullying his
baby girl like this.
"Baby girl....you are here! I had been trying to find you! Hmm...are they your
friends?"
Jiyong asked and slipped his hands of her waist, before looking at Minho as
well as the woman beside him.
Even though Dara was a little taken aback by his sudden action, she forced out
a smile and cuddle close to him before nodding her head slowly. He was her
only support now, the only person who could helped her preserve the little
dignity left in front of her ex-boyfriend.
"Jiyong....meet Lee Minho...my classmate back in Canada..."
Dara introduced as she pointed to Minho.
Jiyong nodded before giving him a fake smile.
However, Minho ignored him rudely and looked sideway. He was just having
his fun mocking at his ex-girlfriend and didnt like anyone to hinder his way.
"Shall we make a move first? We are running late for our next appointment!"
Jiyong smiled as he looked at Dara sweetly.
Dara nodded obediently and cling his arms, before bidding goodbye to the two
who looked as though they were on fire.
"Dont get so smug! I will see how long you will last! You will be getting rid of
her soon! I dont believe you can stand being with a woman who you cant
even touch a bit!"

Minho threw out his words harshly, as soon as the two turned their backs.
During their dating in the past, Dara would always pushed Minho away
whenever he wanted to get intimate with her.
Jiyong looked at Dara after his words, and his princess avoided his gaze
immediately, obviously hurt by the insult.
"Oh...thanks for being so concern about us....but I dont think I will ever let
her go...coz I simply love the way she is..."
Jiyong turned his face sideway and said proudly, before leading Dara away.
Along the way, Dara couldnt help but to feel deeply touched by his words.
--------------------------------Thanks for all the comments and suggestion...
We will go for Baby Girl since all my beloved reader prefer Baby Girl more
(even myself LOL)
Please continue reading and comment welcome!!
Page 12 of 22
"Hey...dont get so upset...it isnt worth to spoil your day because of a jerk like
him.."
Jiyong tried to cheer Dara who looked so unhappily along their way.
"I am fine...and thanks for your help just now..."
Dara forced out a smile at him before saying.
"Dont lie to me....you are not okie...come on... you can tell me if there is
something bothering you..."
Jiyong added on as he looked at her in concern.
"Actually what he had said just now wasnt wrong....I am really a bad
girlfriend..."
Dara muttered sadly. In fact, her few boyfriend in the past left her after they
couldnt get what they wanted from her.
"Baby girl...dont take his words to heart...I can see you are a perfect
girlfriend...it is he who doesnt match you... just forget everything okie...come
on...lets take this..."
Jiyong defended before shifting her attention to the huge ferris wheel in front
of them.

----------------------------------------------------------"Hey...wait for me...I will be back soon..."

Jiyong said after queuing in the line for some time.
Before Dara could ask further, he was already out of sight.
He came back just in time and seemed to have something hiding behind his
back secretly.
However, Dara didnt pay much notice, as she was thinking of what had
happened just now.
Entering their cabin, they sat on the opposite sides.
The ferris wheel started to move upwards slowly inch by inch.
Dara looked outside and observed the glamorous view quietly, still deeply
affected by Minho's words just now.
"Nah...for you...."
Jiyong took out a candy from behind, trying to cheer her up.
"Candy floss...how did you know I like this..."
Dara's eyes lighted up immediately at the candy. Since young, she had a sweet
tooth and one of her favourite sweet will be candy floss.
Watching Dara, Jiyong couldnt help but to smile at the sight of her nibbling
the sweet. She is just like a child, and a simple gesture like this can cheered
her up so quickly.
"Hey...how come you are eating all by yourself...I want some too.."
Jiyong nudged her before he asked playfully.
"No way...I am finishing it up soon.."
Dara shook her head firmly.
"Please baby girl...."
Jiyong pleaded as he eyed at her candy floss greedily.
"Hmm...okie...since you had done me a great favor today... I shall reward
you...come on...open your mouth..."
She said and pulled a mouthful of the candy, before placing it into his mouth.

The candy dissolved sweetly inside him instantly, so does his heart, unknown
to him.
--------------------------------"So...hope that you have fun today....let me know once you are safely inside
your room..."
Jiyong said sweetly to Dara and placed his hands on the steering wheel.
The two had just finished their hearty dinner with Seunghyun and Bom,
before Jiyong sent his Dara back home.
"Yeah...I did...and thanks for your help just now..."
Dara smiled before she released the seat belt from her.
"Not a problem...they ought to be taught a lesson... and dont think so much..
sleep well..."
Jiyong returned her smile before saying.
"You too.."
Dara replied her last piece before getting down the car.
----------------------------------------------------------Looking down through the windows as soon as she reached her room, she
smiled when she saw Jiyong was still downstairs.
Her handphone vibrated at the same time, and she beamed further when she
saw the name appearing on the screen.
"Jiyongie calling"
These words flicked a few more times on the handphone before she finally
pressed the answered key.
"Reached?"
Jiyong asked as soon as the line was engaged.
"Yup..I just reached my room.."
She nodded and said happily.
"Alright...have a good rest baby girl.. you had a long day.."
Jiyong repeated as he switched on the ignition of his car.

"You too...drive carefully..."

Dara reminded in concern before the two ended the call.
----------------------------------------------------------Wiping her hair with the towel in her hands, Dara sat down on the chair after
a long refreshing bathe.
Her eyes stopped at the tiny plush toy Jiyong gave to her earlier on.
She grinned happily when she took it up from the desk.
Holding the toy on her hands preciously, her mind drifted to what Jiyong had
said to Minho today.
"I dont think I will ever let her go.. coz I simply love the way she is.."
She smiled and her face flushed a little with that thought. She began to
wonder if Jiyong meant what he said just now.
However, she frowned the very next minute the moment she remembered the
love contract. He might be just playing his role as her fake boyfriend.
But then, the way he said seemed to be like coming from the bottom of his
heart. He looked so serious back then. Furthermore, the way he had been
treating her this while seemed to have exceeded their acting.
Not wanting to think any further, she climbed up her bed wearily with the
plush toy in her hands, before she drifted off to her sleep a while later.
----------------------------------------------------------A few days later, the duo met for dinner once again in their favourite
restaurant.
After calling the bill, Jiyong threw his arms over Dara's shoulders, before
making their way out of the eating place.
They were about to knock into someone who was at the entrance. Luckily, they
managed to stop their step in time.
"Taeyeon..."
Jiyong muttered as soon as his eyes set on the lady in front of them.
Quickly, he released his hands from Dara instantly.
Page 13 of 22
"Jiyong...."

Taeyeon forced out an awkward smile and muttered as soon as her eyes met
his.
It had been a long time since they last seen each other after their break-up.
Dara then shifted her gaze from Jiyong to the lady in front of them as soon as
she felt his hand withdrawing from her.
At the first glance, she was surprise to find the lady sharing a similar outlook
as her. Both of them were short and petite in size, and they had those big
sparkling eyes which stood out from their flawless skin, not to mention the
smile which warmed up people's heart instantly just at the look of them.
Who is she?
Dara couldnt help but to wonder when she saw the two looking at each other
in silence.
----------------------------------------------------------"I didnt expect to meet you here..."
Taeyeon broke the deafening silence at last.
"Me too...and how have you been all this while?"
Jiyong asked and stared deep into her hazel brown eyes. He was still very
much concern over her, even though he no longer played a part in her life
now.
"Life had been good for me...."
Taeyeon nodded before smiling blissfully.
The wound in Jiyong hurt further the moment he saw how contented she was
at the moment. She seemed to be much happier with Donghae now, rather
than when she was still with him. He knew that he should be happy for the
two of them, but then, his heart was feeling so pain at the moment that he
could hardly breathe.
Seeing how Jiyong was looking at Taeyeon, Dara knew that she must be
someone important to Jiyong.
It then drawn to her that she might be the one that Seunghyun and Bom had
been talking about the other day, the one who left Jiyong for his buddy.
----------------------------------------------------------"I guess life had been good for you too right...gotton yourself a girlfriend?"

Taeyeon asked about Dara after a while, before looking at him.

"She...she is just a friend..."
Jiyong stuttered as he avoided her eyes quickly.
Dara passed a quick glance at Jiyong in hurt, before smiling at Taeyeon
awkwardly.
"Aww.. your term of friend is so wide...anyway...arent you going to introduce
us?"
Taeyeon chuckled with a hint of sarcasm in her tone. She thought Jiyong was
still so shy with girls. He used to address her as friend too when they first
gotton together in the past.
"She is Dara...and this is Taeyeon, my childhood friend..."
Jiyong did a brief introduction on the two girls, before they shook their hands.
"Anyway, I got to run Jiyong....I suppose you will be bringing her to the party
this sat right...we will talk again then..and Dara...it had been nice meeting
you..."
Taeyeon smiled as she bided the two goodbye hurriedly.
----------------------------------------------------------The Jiyong and Dara walked in silence on the streets after Taeyeon left.
Jiyong was in front, and she tagged along behind slowly.
He seemed to have so much on his mind now, and the sorrow in his eyes were
back again.
It made Dara dread to even talk to him now, with the look on his face.
As for Dara, her mind kept on thinking of what Jiyong had said just now.
"She...she is just a friend....."
This sentence kept on ringing in her head.
So all along, she was only his friend.
But then, he didnt deny when the waiter addressed her as his girlfriend just
now, or any other time before this.
Why did he change so suddenly after meeting Taeyeon?

Maybe it was what their relationship was supposed to be in the first place. She
was the one who had complicated things.
They were only two strangers who were put together to play a show. Their only
connection was the love contract between them, the one where their
relationship will ceased as soon as the party on Saturday was over.
"So after the function, we will not be together anymore..."
She thought silently.
-----------------------------------------------------A few days later, the duo were in the cinema, catching the latest comedy in
town.
Laughter could be heard echoing the entire theatre, when the movie reached
its centre part.
Dara too was laughing her heart out, so much so that her tears had already
started to form at the corner of her eyes.
However, Jiyong sat in his seat remaining silence. His eyes were on the screen,
but sadly to say, his heart wasnt.
Dara bit her lips in disappointment the moment she took a quick glance at
him. She no longer have any mood to continue laughing, after seeing the state
he was in.
It had already been a few days since they met Taeyeon and ever since then,
Jiyong always seemed to be deep in thoughts whenever he was with her.
It seemed like his heart was still holding on to someone he couldnt bear to let
go.
The one she knew also.
----------------------------------------------------------The two walked out of the theatre slowly after the movie ended, enjoying the
moonlight under the sky.
"So...are we going home now?"
Dara broke the silence and looked at him.
However, Jiyong seemed to be miles away, even though he is just right beside
her.
"Jiyong..."

Dara tried again.

Still, there wasnt any response from him.
Dara then nudged him a little in displeasure.
"Hmm...yes?"
Jiyong spoke up finally as he forced out a smile at her.
"Nothing..."
Dara avoided his eyes and shook her head. Actually, she wanted to ask what
was on his mind lately. However, it seemed too obvious to her. She then
swallowed back her words as she dreaded the answer from him.
----------------------------------------------------------Dara fastened the seatbelt as soon as she sat inside his car.
Just before Jiyong switched on the ignition, his handphone rang.
"Anyeong...Taeyeon?"
Dara turned to Jiyong as soon as she heard the name.
His face seemed to brighten a little instantly after hearing her voice.
"What...your gastric is acting up again...are you okie then...I'll be right there..."
It made her heart sank further when she saw how worried Jiyong was when he
heard she was feeling unwell. Just one call from her and she is able to make
him fall head over heel with.
----------------------------------------------------------"Sorry Baby girl...I cant send you home..."
Jiyong turned to Dara after ending his call.
"I heard that...run along now..."
Dara forced out a smile, even though her heart was hurting from his words.
"I am sorry...I will get you a cab..."
Jiyong added on as he jumped out of his car hurriedly.
However, as if luck wasnt on his side, there wasnt a single cab in soul.

Cursing loudly, he turned his head left and right anxiously searching for one,
as he looked at his watch from time to time.
Seeing his action further, it made her heart ached more badly.
----------------------------------------------------------"Jiyong....you go ahead first...I can cope alone..."
Dara came down from his car after some time.
It was no use keeping him with her now, when his mind was all on Taeyeon.
"Really...you be okie on your own? I will get going then... call me when you get
home..."
Jiyong reminded before he got into his car quickly.
Not even bidding a goodbye, he drove off shortly.
Looking at his car until it was no longer in sight, Dara's tears fell unknowingly.
Page 14 of 22
"Sandara Park! Why are you crying for? Why should you care if he is going to
meet her! He is not your anyone in the first place!"
Dara chided herself harshly and wiped off the tears that was dripping down
her cheeks after Jiyong left her.
She wanted to be nonchalant about him going to meet her, but then, her heart
proved her wrong when it was still hurting from the fact that he left her for
Taeyeon.
It was as if heaven was crying with her. It started to drizzle gently after a
while. Within minutes, the rain turned into a storm and it poured down
heavily.
Running to the nearest shelter, Dara was already half drenched by then.
"Ah choo!"
She sneezed as she pulled her damp jacket around her, freezing a little when
the wind blew across her.
Popping out her head once in a while, she wanted to catch sight if any cab
happened to pass by the way.
However, none seemed to be in sight today.
It was closed to midnight when she finally see an empty cab coming along the
way after a long wait.

Running out happily, she put out her hands to hail the cab hurriedly.
Unfortunately, a couple rushed out before her and shoved her slightly away,
before hopping into the car shamelessly.
"How could they!"
Dara pouted as she went back to the shelter again.
It was even harder for her to catch one when the midnight movie ended 15
minutes later and row and row of people started to scramble out of the theatre
slowly.
-----------------------------------------------------------Ringing the doorbell anxiously, Jiyong waited in front of the door.
He had went to the nearest convenience store to get her usual medicine for
Taeyeon before rushing to her house.
He knew how bad her condition was. She could hardly speak properly when
she called him just now. It was one of her old ailment since she was a kid.
"Taeyeon.. How are you?"
Jiyong asked in concern as soon as the door was opened.
"Still hurting a little...."
Taeyeon forced out a smile weakly as she held on to her abdomen, before
leading him into the room.
After helping her to the sofa, Jiyong went into the kitchen to take a water for
her, before feeding her with the medicine.
"Feeling better?"
Jiyong asked after she rested on the sofa for a while.
"Yeah...much better...the pain almost kill me just now..."
She nodded her head before she replied.
"You must have skipped your dinner again..."
Jiyong frowned as he looked at the documents that were scattered all over the
dining table.
"Well...I cant seem to hide anything from you...I was rushing for a project.."

She smiled sheepishly while she said.

"You better take care of yourself.. you don't you cannot afford to be starve.."
Jiyong reminded before he chuckled slightly.
"Yeah.. I will...anyway...I am really thankful for your help just now...my
parents are out of town and Donghea went overseas for a business trip too.. I
couldn't get anyone except you...so sorry to have disrupted your evening..."
Taeyeon explained before she looked at him apologetically.
"Nah...Dont be so polite with me...I wasn't doing anything important...just
finished watching a movie..."
Jiyong rested himself back onto the sofa before he said casually.
"Movie...with Dara.. I suppose...aww..is she angry with me for calling you
here..?"
Taeyeon asked and looked at him worriedly.
"Angry? Why should she?"
Jiyong knitted his eyebrow in confusion.
"No girls will allow their boyfriend to care for other woman like this
Jiyong...especially if we did have a past together..."
Taeyeon added on.
"Well...she didn't say anything...she even ask me to rush here..."
Jiyong replied honestly.
"She is really big-hearted enough...you got yourself a great girl Jiyong...I can
see she is the right one for you...but then... I still think she will mind...you
better explain to her... woman tends to be more sensitive
Taeyeon suggested helpfully.
Her words lead him into deep thinking.
-----------------------------------------------------------It almost took Dara two hours before she reached home.
She was already drenched from head to toes by the time she stepped into the
house.

Slumping down the chair in her room wearily, her eyes stopped at the tiny
plush toy he gave to her that time.
She began to wonder was he still with Taeyeon at the moment? If yes, what are
they doing now? What will they be chatting about? Will there be any chance if
their love will rekindle anytime?"
Her tears dropped once again the moment she thought of that.
Taking out her handphone from her bag, she was hoping to receive some sort
of concern from him. However, there wasn't even a single miss call or message
from his side.
She was pondering whether she should call him. After all, he did remind her to
give him a call as soon as she reached home.
Dreading who will pick up his call, her hands pressed the dial key finally.
Unfortunately, no one answered the phone, and the line was cut dead after
some time.
Biting her lips in disappointment, she went to create a message before
pressing the send key.
-----------------------------------------------------------"Nah...I am okie...dont be so naggy...Donghea.."
Taeyeon giggled as she spoke to the other person on the phone.
It was Donghea, who had called her after knowing that his wife was feeling
unwell.
Jiyong sat on the other side of the sofa, looking at Taeyeon who was talking
and laughing sweetly on the line.
She looked so blissful at the moment, so much so that one could feel her love
for Donghea.
Surprisingly, Jiyong no longer feel hurt in his heart. Instead, he felt a moment
of relief. He had decided that it was time to let her go.
Taeyeon had already moved on with Donghae to another stage of their life,
and so should he.
He should no longer looked back in the past, where it would only hurt him
further.
After all, it was already enough for him to know that they are happily together
with one another.

Giving her a last smile, he went off her house silently.

-----------------------------------------------------------Sitting in his car tiredly, his eyes stopped at the handphone that was left on
the passenger seat.
"Oh right....have that Baby girl reach home?"
He muttered softly as he pressed his phone.
"Hey...just want to tell you I had reached...and hope that Taeyeon is fine...give
my regards to her.."
Her message read.
He had an urge to call her now, just to make sure she is safely at home.
But then, he held back his decision when he looked at his watch.
After all, it was already two in the morning.

"The number you had just dial is currently not available. Please try again
later."
Jiyong slumped his handphone onto his desk restlessly, after trying to call
Dara for the umpteen time today.
Swivelling his chair to face the full length window in his office, he wondered
where his baby girl had gone to.
He had been trying to reach her since morning, but then, her mobile had been
switched off completely.
------------------------------------------------------------

Stirring a little on the bed, Dara opened her eyes slowly.

Sitting up weakly, she gave a few sneezes before pulling the blanket closer to
her.
Taking a tissue to blow her nose, she threw into the dustbin next to her bed
after use. The bin had already been half filled by her used tissues which she
had been using throughout the night.
Her head was heavy and her body was shivering in cold, even though the sun
was shining brightly outside.
She must have been caught down by a bad flu from the state she was in at the
moment.
Knowing she could hardly move in any condition, she fell back onto her bed
drowsily after a while.
There was nothing better than to have a good sleep in a condition like this.
-----------------------------------------------------------"Hey bro? Did you see Dara?"
Jiyong asked as soon as saw Seunghyun, once he entered into the pub after his
work.
"Why? Cannot find her? What kind of boyfriend are you...."
Seunghyun teased as he patted his chest playfully.
"I am serious....you know where she is? I had been trying to call her..."
Jiyong said seriously before he took a seat on one of the bench.
"I received a call from Aunty Park just now...she told me that Dara was caught
with a high fever and heavy flu...she is resting at home...."
Seunghyun replied as he passed a drink to Jiyong.
"She is sick? Why so suddenly? She is still fine when I see her yesterday!"
Jiyong asked curiously before he took a sip of his drink.
"I was just about to ask you...how come she is so sick under your care...I heard
that she is caught in the storm last night...she is totally drenched when she
returned yesterday...didn't you send her back?"
Seunghyun probed in surprise. It was not like Jiyong who wouldn't send her
back after their meetings.

At the mention of that, it was then he realized that she might had been caught
by the storm last night, after he left her in front of the cinema alone.
"Well...I had something urgent last night and couldn't send her back..."
Jiyong explained guilty.
"You left her alone in the heavy rain...what is so important..."
Seunghyun exclaimed unbelievingly.
"No...it wasn't raining when I leave her there...well... Taeyeon called me last
night...she needed my help to buy her medicine as her gastric is acting up
again..."
Jiyong explained.
"Oh...its she....no wonder...no wonder you can leave Dara all alone on the
streets in the heavy rain heartlessly...poor Dara..."
Seunghyun chided sarcastically.
"I told you I didn't know it rained so heavily...I wouldn't leave her there if I
knew..."
Jiyong retorted.
"Dont say I didn't remind you...Taeyeon got a husband now...you better stop
thinking anything beyond your relationship with her now..."
Seunghyun said seriously.
"What are you talking about...I wouldn't think of anything like that...anyway..I
am going now...."
Jiyong said before he stood up from his seat.
"So soon...where are you going..."
Seunghyun asked in surprise.
"Playing my role as a boyfriend now...shouldn't I visit my baby girl who is sick
in bed?"
Jiyong chuckled as he cracked a joke.
"Thats sounds better...you really should...and you better take good care of
your girl huh...boyfriend..."
Seunghyun laughed as well before bidding him goodbye.

-----------------------------------------------------------"Missy....its time for your medicine..."

Her servant woke her up, shaking her gently.
"Hmm..."
Dara muttered and sat up with the help of her.
"Missy...your friend is downstairs...he wanted to see you..."
The servant added on after Dara gulped down her pills.
"Who is it?"
Dara probed in surprise as she held her head weakly.
"Its a guy....I had never seen him before...."
She replied politely.
Stepping down the bed, she pushed her curtain a little sideway.
Jiyong was leaning against his car, staring in front.
"Erm...tell him to go back....just say I am asleep..."
Dara said firmly.
She had decided to keep a distance away from him now, in case her feeling
started to get deeper for him as the days went by. After all, their relationship
will be over once their contract ended. It is better to get prepared now.
"Yes, Missy!"
The servant nodded her head before going out of the room.
--------------------"Sorry Sir...our missy is asleep..."
Dara's servant did what she was told and informed Jiyong, who was still
waiting downstairs.
"Oh....is she...."
Jiyong muttered and lifted his head, only to see the lights on the 2nd floor
being switched off instantly.

"Anyway...is your missy alright?"

Jiyong added on and asked in concern.
"Yes.. she is...but her flu is pretty bad..."
The servant replied honestly.
"I see...do you mind helping me to pass her these?"
Jiyong said before he popped his head into his car and took out a big paper
bag to her.
Inside contained at least 10 bottles of herbal drinks, ranging from the sweet
honey to the bitter herbal. He had specially went to a Chinese physician earlier
on to buy these for her. He had wanted to buy only a few, but then, he ended
up purchasing so many as he seriously didnt know which one Dara would
prefer.
"Yes sure! Good night sir!"
The servant smiled politely and took it from him, before bidding goodbye.

Dara took a peek through the window, only to catch sight of Jiyong who just
jumped back into his car.
Even though she wanted to see him so badly, she thought that it was best for
her to keep a distance away by now, just in case she fell deeper for him as the
day went by. After all, everything was going to end in a few days time.
"Come in!"
Dara answered when the knock broke her thoughts.
"Missy...your friend passed you these.."
The servant said after she walked to Dara.

Taking over the bag curiously, she took a look inside immediately after her
servant left her.
One by one, she placed the bottles on her desk, accumulating a total of 12.
On each and every bottle, there was a note written by Jiyong, telling her what
the drink tasted like and a brief description of what ailment it was supposed to
treat.
A gush of warmness rushed up instantly to her, after scanning through a few.
She began to wonder on what earth did he knew that she was sick with fever
and flu. She did not even contacted him for the whole day.
However, upon second thoughts, she realised that it must be Seunghyun who
leaked out the secret.
That silly guy must have tasted all the drinks himself, so that he knew exactly
which one was bitter or sweet.
She couldnt help but to feel deeply touch by what Jiyong had done, as no guy
actually did this for her before.
Looking at the handphone on her table side, she had an urge to call him now.
She wanted him to know that she was feeling awful with her bad flu so that he
could comfort her. She wanted him to feed her with her medicine, so that it
would not taste as bitter as it was now. Most importantly, she wanted to know
if he would be as anxious for her as he was when he heard that Teayeon was
unwell last night.
However, her heart sank when she reminded herself that their relationship
was nothing more then just a contract. He couldn't possibly be caring for her
like a real boyfriend, not to mention that his heart had already be occupied by
another person.
Sighing loudly, she was about to turn her back from the windows when she
saw a familiar car parked right outside her house. Taking a closer look, she
was even more surprised to know that the car belonged to Jiyong.
----------------------------------------------------------Jiyong leaned outside his car, rubbing his hands occasionally from the cold
wind blowing against him.
He had no mood to return home, without seeing Dara personally.
Even though he knew that she would be fine under her servant's care, his
mind was still constantly on her. Part of him was pinning to see her again
while the other part was still worried for her. After all, it was him who landed
her into this state.

----------------------------------------------------------"Why are you still here?"

Dara broke the dead silence after opening the gate. She could no longer hold
back her urge to see him, especially after what he had done for her.
"I thought you slept already..."
Jiyong said in surprise as his face lifted up upon seeing her.
"I was...at first..."
Dara muttered faintly and pulled her jacket closer to her.
"Hey...are you okie..you looked so pale...."
Jiyong added on in concern and held her hands, before touching her face
gently.
It was an action so used to him that he had forgotten that they were just
acting.
She looked so vulnerable to him now, so weak that made his heart ached at the
sight of her.
Was it guilty or was it the fact that he felt pain for her?
He didnt know himself.
"I am fine..."
Dara blushed at his intimate action and backed off a few steps backwards. Not
the fact that she minded his action, but the fact that she was going to fall
deeper if he continued to show such concern to her.
Jiyong remained silent and rubbed his neck uneasily, upon seeing her
reaction.
He found her a little cold to him today, for a reason he didnt know.
"Erm...you better go back now...and...we better dont meet these few days..."
Dara said after a while of silence.
"Why....?"
Jiyong exclaimed in surprise after her words.

"Well..I...I just dont want to get you sick...you should know the function is
just around the concern..."
Dara avoided his eyes as she stuttered.
"My body is strong enough...you dont have to worry..."
He explained quickly.
"Erm....I need to rest also...anyway...its really very late now...go back..."
She added on coldly and turned her back swiftly, trying to leave his sight.
"Baby girl...take care of yourself...."
Jiyong reminded softly as he grabbed her hands just in time before she
stepped away.
Nodding her head without looking at him, she wriggled out of his hands and
closed the gate.

I won't let Jiyong get away so fast!... Agree? LOL
Sorry for the short chapter.. ><
Page 17 of 22
Pressing the ending call button once again, Jiyong threw his handphone onto
the desk in frustration.
He had been trying to get hold of his baby girl ever since he last met her in the
night two days ago. However, all his calls were either diverted to her voice
mails or left unanswered. Worst of all, she did not even bother to return any of
his call even though he had called her like endless times.
He had tried to send her messages too, and the replies he got from her were
short and cold, as if they hardly knew each other.
He wondered what had caused the sudden change in his baby girl. They were
still fine when they went for their last movie the other day. Everything started
to change only after she had gotton sick.
"Maybe she was angry with him for making her sick."
He thought silently.
-----------------------------------------------------------

"Hey...your phone is ringing..."

Bom nudged Dara, when the two were enjoying their shopping spree.
"Its okie...nothing important..."
Dara forced out a smile and threw her handphone back into her bag after
taking a look at her caller ID.
"Whos that?"
Bom asked in surprise as Dara seldom would ignored her calls.
"Just a friend..."
Dara tried to reply nonchalantly.
Seeing her reaction, it made Bom even more suspicious. Slipping her hand
into her bag quickly, she took out her phone before Dara could stopped her.
"Its Jiyong..."
Bom stopped her foot and exclaimed after looking at the screen, before
turning to face her.
Dara remained silence at her words and continued walking.
"Why...you guys had a tiff?"
Bom asked in concern as she walked beside her.
"No...Why would we..."
Dara shook her head and muttered.
"Then why did you ignore his call...arent you guys getting on very well?"
Bom probed further.
"Well...you should know its all for the sake of the contract..and somemore it is
going to end in two days time...and so are our "fake" relationship..."
Dara replied wearily.
"Hmm....am I sensing some unhappiness here...tell me honestly Dara....are
you feeling something real for my shy friend?"
Bom smiled as she put her hands over Dara's shoulders playfully.
"No...of course not...crazy...we are just acting..."

Dara blushed as she denied immediately.

"Oh really...?"
Bom asked and looked at her eyes.
"Of course.."
Dara muttered and avoided her gaze quickly, before she walked faster.
"Dara...have you forgotten you are bad at lying..."
Bom chuckled at the sight of her and caught up with her shortly.
Dara could only remained silence and flushed further. She knew that the more
she tried to explain, the more she would complicate matters.
"Come on Dara...there is nothing shy about liking him... I mean he is so
eligible...eight out of ten women will like him if you ask anyone out on the
streets..."
Bom joked as she tried to ease her awkwardness.
"Anyway...are you planning to let him know?"
Bom asked earnestly.
"No way..."
Dara exclaimed and shook her head firmly.
"But why...you guys looked so suited with one another... and maybe...he might
have feelings for you too..."
Bom encouraged helpfully.
"It cant be...I know his heart is still occupied with someone..."
Dara muttered sadly.
"You mean Taeyeon...erm...maybe he had forgotten about her already.."
Bom added on.
"You know it is impossible...he was so worried the other day when she got
sick...anyway...just forget about the whole thing..."
Dara replied.
-----------------------------------------------------------

"Bro...is Dara very busy recently...?"

Jiyong asked as he took a sip of his drink at the counter.
"I dont think so...why....?"
Seunghyun shook his head and replied.
"Well...I dont know how to say...but it seemed like she is trying to avoid me..."
Jiyong explained.
"Avoid you...for what...arent you guys getting on very well...?"
Seunghyun probed.
"I cant say it also...I thought we are.. but then...she didnt pick up any of my
calls these two days...when I visit her that time she was sick...she even say we
better dont meet again until the function day...do you think she is angry with
me for getting her sick...?"
Jiyong asked worriedly.
"That is not like Dara...she isnt so petty...."
Seunghyun analyzed.
"Or...is she seeing someone now that she find it awkward to act with me...?"
Jiyong came out with another reason.
"Hmmm...That might be a possibility...I heard from Aunty Park that some boy
is chasing her hot on her heels recently..."
Seunghyun touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Really...who is he...do you know him...have they gotton together...when did it
happen....?"
Jiyong exclaimed anxiously and shot out all his worries at the same time after
hearing Seunghyun's words.
"Come on Jiyong...relax...one question at a time... hey wait wait...why are you
so anxious...."
Seunghyun teased him.
"Well...I am just concern..."
Jiyong blushed a little as he tried to avoid his eyes.

"Only concern...or are you minding the fact that you have a rival now....come
on Jiyong...we had been friends for so long..tell me...are you feeling
something for my sis...?"
Seunghyun probed further.
Not nodding his head nor denying, he continued to sip his drink.
"Aww Jiyong...I take it as a yes then...go for it...Dara is a nice girl...."
Seunghyun cheered as he chuckled.
"Dont be so ridiculous...I dont even know how she feels.."
Jiyong muttered softly.
----------------------------------------------------------Dara was about to walk into the pub when she saw the familiar back view.
The pub was not open for the day yet and thus, she could see Jiyong clearly at
one glance.
"What do you think of Dara then...?"
Dara could heard Seunghyun asking Jiyong at the counter as soon as she
opened the door.
Hiding herself behind it quickly, she tried to listen to what Jiyong was going to
say next.
"Well...she reminded me so much of Taeyeon..."
Jiyong replied.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I can hear lot of complaining now.... hahaha

Page 18 of 22
Dara's heart sank to the bottom as soon as she heard his words. So all along,
he had been treating her as a substitute of Taeyeon. No wonder he could get

along with her so well, although they only knew each other like just two weeks
ago. Even Seunghyun and Bom were surprise by their sudden closeness within
such a short period of time.
No wishing to hear him further, she closed the door gently and walked away
sadly.
----------------------------------------------------------"Ouch! Whats that for!"
Jiyong complained after receiving a hard slap from Seunghyun on his arms.
"Its on behalf of Dara for you! How dare you treat my sister as a substitute of
Taeyeon! Its so unfair to her!"
Seunghyun chided as he looked at him seriously.
"Come on! I didnt! I am just saying my first impression of her. They looked so
much alike after all!
Jiyong quickly explained.
"They might resemble each other, but bear in mind that they are two different
people!
Seunghyun added on.
"Of course I know that! Their characters are poles apart. Dara tends to be
more introverted as compared to the outgoing Taeyeon. However, she will
brighten up with every little things you do and that made you feel as though
you had done something great. She is rather timid when encountered with
problems that just made people want to protect her..."
Jiyong analyzed and said dreamily. He grinned when he thought of the time
he cheered her up with the little plush toy and candy floss, not forgetting the
time when he helped her to get back at Donghae as well.
"That sounds a little better.. at least you seemed to know Dara well
enough...and yup.. that scatterbrain seriously need someone who can take
good care of her.."
Seunghyun nodded in agreement.
"She does definitely...she needed someone whom she can depend on..."
Jiyong chuckled as he thought of how muddle-head Dara could get at times.
Luckily he was with her whenever she needed him by her side.
"I know you can fulfill the role Jiyong..."

Seunghyun hinted. After all, he knew Jiyong too well. He was a guy who liked
to protect the weak and Dara seem to suit him well.
----------------------------------------------------------"Dara...why are you still here...I thought I told you to go in first..."
Bom asked in surprise after she met Dara near the car park.
"Well...I think I will give it a miss today...I am tired..."
Dara came out with an excuse as she smiled wearily.
"Well...just go in for a drink...I will get your brother to send you home later..."
Bom offered.
"But.."
Before Dara could protest any further, Bom had already dragged her into the
pub.
----------------------------------------------------------"Hi...."
Jiyong greeted and looked at Dara in surprise as soon as she and Bom joined
the two guys at the counter. After all, he was not expecting her sudden visit to
the pub today.
Dara forced out a smile before she took a seat awkwardly beside him, much to
Bom's insistence.
After the couple left them alone, the duo fell into greater silence.
"Erm...are you very busy recently..?"
Jiyong decided to break the silence after a while.
"Yea...I am..."
Dara muttered uneasily.
"I see...anyway...I am sorry for landing you sick that time...I should have sent
you back home instead of leaving you there..."
Jiyong said apologetically.
"Its not your fault...I mean...my health had been weak since young..."
Dara shook her head before she replied.

"Well...ahem...the function is on this Saturday.."

Jiyong cleared his throat and announced when they fell into another silence. It
seemed like they had nothing much to talk about recently, ever since she tried
to avoid him.
"I know...dont worry...I will be there as what I had promised...."
Dara replied coldly.
"Erm...I am just reminding in case you had forgotton... anyway Dara...we are
still friend after that day right?"
Jiyong asked hopefully.
"Well...it might be hard...."
Dara muttered softly.
Jiyong looked at her immediately as if he didnt hear her words.
"I...I will be returning to Canada right after the function..."
Dara replied, without looking at him.
After that, both of them remain silent and in a deep thought..
What will happen after the contract end.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
** D-Day **
Dara sat in front of her dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror.
The day had finally arrived, the day where their contract will formally end at
12 am sharp tonight.
Everything will be over by then, every single memory she once shared with
him.
Nothing will be the same tomorrow, for she will be in Canada by the time, to
the place without his existence, without him in her life anymore.
"Brace yourself up Dara! You should be glad that the acting will be over
tonight!"
Dara convinced herself in the mirror, bringing her fingers to both sides of her
mouth, trying to create a smile for herself.

However, she seemed to be moodier the more she tried to force herself to
smile.
Pulling out the cosmetic in her make-up box slowly, she started to doll herself
up.
No matter how worst she could be feeling right now, she had to give the
best shot tonight, in front of his parents for she had promised to help him.
--------------------------------------------Jiyong sat at the back of his car, looking outside the windows quietly.
He was on his way to pick up Dara, his baby girl for only tonight.
"I will be returning to Canada right after the function..."
Dara 's words kept on ringing inside his mind.
He felt so lost after hearing her in the pub that night, so helpless that he didnt
know what he should do.
Was it love that he felt for her?
Or was it just a habit to him?
He seriously did not know what he was feeling for her.
He was scare to enter into another relationship after Taeyeon, for he feared to
be hurt again.
He certainly did not wish them to end up the same as what he did with
Taeyeon, where all his efforts and feelings came to a naught after so many
years. The pain was simply beyond description.
However, what he knew was that he did not want her to leave him, to leave his
side.
It just seemed like his life will not be the same without her in it.

"You...you looked so different...!"

Jiyong muttered in surprise as soon as he stepped out of his car and looked at
Dara who was waiting at the door.
Throughout these times with her, it was the first time she was so formally
dressed, and she looked extremely stunning that she took his breathe away.
There she stood wearing a white gown, where her curves were beautifully
presented. The whiteness of the gown brought out her elegance, making her
flawless skin even fairer under the mild evening sunlight. Her hair were
magnificently curled into simple waves that made her look a little more
feminine than usual.
"Erm...do I look very bad?"
Dara asked cautiously after seeing Jiyong's surprised look.
'No...not at all...you looked gorgeous!"
Jiyong shook his head and said shyly.
Dara blushed a little at his comment before she sat into the car, after Jiyong
held the door for her.
----------------------------------------------------------Inside the car, none of them spoke a word.
The duo looked so deep in thoughts as if they were thinking of something
serious.
"Are you nervous?"
Jiyong asked after a while of silence.
"A little..."
Dara nodded her head honestly and looked at him.
"Dont worry...I'll be right beside you..."
Jiyong smiled assuring at her, before taking her hands in his.
As much as Dara wanted to retreat from him, she didnt release his hands.
----------------------------------------------------------Jiyong led Dara into the grand ball room, as soon as both stepped down the
car.
A lot of guests had already arrived, as the room was almost filled up with
crowds.

Guiding her to the two folks standing near the stage, Jiyong placed his hands
on her delicate waist as soon as they stopped in front of them.
"Dad, Mum! Meet Dara!"
Jiyong smiled and introduce proudly his so-called girlfriend to his parents.
"Anyeong, Uncle and Auntie Kwon! Nice to meet you!"
Dara greeted politely as she smiled at the two of them.
"Nice to meet you, young lady!"
Mr Kwon chuckled as she shook hands with Dara.
"Very nice to see you dear!"
Mrs Kwon added on as she scanned her from head to toes contentedly.
"How come you didnt tell us you have such a pretty nice girlfriend, rascal!"
Mrs Kwon commented before she turned to look at Jiyong who shrugged his
shoulders playfully.
"You flatter me, Auntie Kwon!"
Dara shook her head bashfully before she replied.
"You are too modest Dara! She is right! No wonder our son refuse to accept
any girls we introduced him!"
Mr Kwon pointed to Jiyong before he laughed heartily.
"Well...I told you I only have eyes for her..."
Jiyong smirked proudly before he held her closer to him.
Dara's heart skipped a beat as soon as she heard him. She wished that he was
telling the truth. However, her hopes were dashed when she remembered that
it was nothing but an act to please his parents.
"Okie okie! We all can see that! So I guess its time to discuss your marriage?"
Mrs Kwon smiled as she looked at Dara, before turning to Jiyong.
"Marriage? Mum...its still too early to talk about this thing..."
Jiyong exclaimed before he looked at Dara in embarrassment.
Dara could only remained silence as she blushed at the topic.

"Its not early Jiyong! Its about time! We are dying to carry our grandchild!"
Mr Kwon added on.
Upon hearing that, Dara could only flushed further.
"Anyway...we will talk about this later....I'll bring Dara to get some bites.."
Jiyong ended the topic hurriedly before dragging her away.
----------------------------------------------------------"Sorry about that.."
Jiyong said apologetically when they reached a corner.
"Its okie.."
Dara smiled as she shook her head.
"I'll get you some food...wait for me alright..."
Jiyong returned her smile and let go of her hands, before making his way to
the eating table.
*A few hours later*
"Hey...you look like a kitten..."
Jiyong chuckled when he turned to Dara, where the side of her mouth was
stained with some fudge from the cakes they were having.
Putting down his plate on the table, he took a napkin and cleaned it for her
gently.
As he was concentrating on her face, Dara stared at him.
Her heart ached when she thought that everything was going to be over by
now.
"Jiyong...I am leaving now..."
Dara backed a few steps away from him, before running to the exit quickly.
Not caring even though Jiyong was calling out for her, Dara dashed out of the
ballroom as quickly as she could.
Her mind couldnt think of anything else at the moment.

The more she wanted to forget Jiyong, forget about all the memories they once
shared with each other, the more the recollections between them came back to
haunt her.
She thought that she had mentally prepared herself for this day to arrive, but
apparently, her heart ached more than she could imagine when she thought of
the day where Jiyong wouldnt be in her life again.
----------------------------------------------------------Jiyong stood at the ground dumbfounded, as Dara took him off guard with her
sudden departure.
"Where was she going?"
This question kept on ringing in his mind.
The clock on the tower struck 12 at this moment, which broke his thoughts
instantly.
It was then he realised that the love contract between the two of them had
officially ended now.
They will no longer be labelled as a couple, and most importantly, Dara
wouldnt going to appear in his life anymore after today.
"Son, where is Dara rushing off to?"
Mrs Kwon came up to Jiyong after seeing Dara running to the exit earlier on.
"She...she...left...."
Jiyong muttered softly.
"Left...why didnt you send her home...its your duty to make sure she is safely
back to her house... go...chase after her now..."
Mrs Kwon urged her son who was still rooted to the ground.
"Chase...chase...after her?"
Jiyong repeated her words slowly.
It seemed as if his mother's words had enlightened him suddenly.
Nodding earnestly, Jiyong made his way out of the ballroom.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bet I heard lot of you shouting 'Pabo Jiyong' ..shouldnt have let go Dara!! LOL

Last update of the year..See you gals next year! Happy New Year 2014!
Page 20 of 22
Dara stood in front of the huge ferries wheel, looking at its magnificent view
which was moving upwards slowly.
The theme park was still opened at this hour, as it was a Saturday night.
Smiling a little at the few couples who sat inside the cabins, her mind flashed
back to the time when the two of them took the ferris wheel, where Jiyong
tried to cheer her up with the candy floss he had gotton for her secretly.
She felt so loved at that time, so filled with happiness as if she had gone back
to her first love.
----------------------------------------------------------Looking out of his car windows anxiously, Jiyong turned his head left and
right repeatedly, trying his luck to catch sight of Dara on the streets.
His mother's words earlier on seemed to struck him, and he couldnt help but
to chide himself for not holding back her much earlier.
He should have known what he was feeling for her long ago, just that he
refused to accept the fact that he had fallen for her, for he still couldnt
convince himself to cross the barrier inside his heart until now.
He knew how much he needed her, when she said that she was leaving his life
for good.
"Pick up the call, baby girl!"
Jiyong muttered anxiously as one of his hands pressed the call button, as the
other was busy on the steering wheel.
A ringing tone could be heard instantly, and he turned to take a glance at the
back seat.
"Shit!"
He cursed and pulled out his ear piece as soon as he saw her handphone lying
at the corner of the left seat behind.
She must had dropped it accidentally when he fetched her just now.
----------------------------------------------------------His car halted quickly in front of her house.
Jumping down his car, he pressed the doorbell repeatedly.

"Yes Sir?"
Dara's servant greeted as soon as she opened the door.
"Is you missy back?"
He asked, panting a little from his rushing.
"Missy came back for her belongings just now. She is on her way to the
airport!"
The servant replied.
Thanking her quickly, Jiyong went back to his car and dashed to the airport.
----------------------------------------------------------Jiyong stepped into the airport within 15 minutes, panting heavily from his
running as sweat flowed down the sides of his face profusely.
Ignoring the stares he was getting from the passer-by, he rushed ahead,
scanning at the departure notice.
There were two more hours before her flight to Canada will take off.
Turing around frantically, he started to search for any signs of her. He combed
every possible area, but he still couldnt catch sight of her after half an hour.
Jumping back into his car, he was nearly on the verge of breaking down.
"Think Kwon Jiyong! Where could she be!"
He hit on the steering wheel hardly as he scratched his head in frustration.
"Daddy, I want candy floss!"
Jiyong could vaguely heard a daughter saying to his father as they just walked
past his car.
"There isnt any store selling here...daddy will bring you to the theme park
tomorrow okie?"
The father replied and coaxed his five years old daughter.
"Theme park...right.. Why didnt I think of that!"
Jiyong said excitedly as he switched on his car ignition immediately.
-----------------------------------------------------------

When Jiyong finally spotted the one he had been looking for, his heart nearly
stopped beating for that second.
Grinning to himself at the angelic figure in front of him, he lowered his body a
little and rested his hands on his thighs, panting heavily.
Sprinting towards her at the fastest speed shortly, he grabbed hold of her
hands and turned her around.
"Jiyong..."
Dara gasped in surprised as soon as she came in contact with Jay.
"I...I finally found you..."
Jiyong muttered in relief as he pulled her into his embrace.
"Why are you here...?"
Dara asked curiously, while he was still hugging her tightly.
"Dont leave...stay with me...will you?"
Jiyong looked into her eyes and asked, after he released her from him.
"What are you talking about Jiyong....our contract is already over..."
Dara shook her head and reminded him.
"I know it had....but I wish to renew our contract...for indefinitely...can I?"
He walked up nearer to her and asked sincerely.
"Jiyong...I had fun with you throughout these days... but we all know that this
day will come to an end sooner or later...it just happen to be today..."
Dara said honestly.
"I dont want it to end like this...."
Jiyong replied sadly.
"Jiyong...all we had is just a contract...a contract drawn up by Seunghyun
oppa to act in front of your parents...you remembered?"
Dara asked as she avoided his gaze.
"Yes, we did have a contract.. It shouldnt involve any feelings in the first
place...but I did...how about you?"
Jiyong confessed as he continued to stare into her eyes.

Dara bit her and remained silence.

"I did Dara...and I believe you feel the same as me...whatever I say regarding
you comes from the bottom of my heart...including the words I told my
parents just now...I only have eyes for you..."
Jiyong added on after Dara's silence.
"Dont say anymore Jiyong...its just an infatuation...I know it is hard on you
to see Taeyeon with her husband just now... I know you wanted someone to
keep you accompany now...but trust me...you will get over soon..."
Dara replied as tears started to cascade at the corner of her eyes, when she
thought that he just wanted someone as a substitute of Taeyeon.
"I know myself Dara...I know what I am feeling for you..."
Jiyong insisted firmly and held her hands.
"Stop lying Jiyong...I overheard your words with Seunghyun oppa the other
day in the pub...I know you are close to me because I reminded you of
Taeyeon...I know you still cant get over her...I can see it in your eyes when she
fell sick that day..."
Dara muttered as she wriggled out of his hold.
"You did...then you should have heard the latter part....you should have heard
that I mentioned that it was just my first impression of you...you should have
heard that I know you two are different people...you should have also heard
that I mentioned that you and her character are world apart....
Jiyong replied, without hesitation.
I...I didnt hear that...
Dara muttered in surprise.
So I guess you assume then...I can relate what I say to Seunhyun that day...I
told him that...Dara tends to be more introverted as compared to the outgoing
Taeyeon. However, she will brighten up with every little thing you do and that
made you feel as though you had done something great. She is rather timid
when encountered with problems that just made people want to protect her..."
Jiyong repeated all the words without fail.
'I want to be the one who protect you forever..my baby girl' Jiyong added.
It was then Dara came to realize that she had somehow misunderstood him all
these days.

Do you believe me now?

Jiyong asked after his words.
It doesnt matter Jiyong...you deserve someone better than me...you heard
what Minho said to you that time...you wont feel happy with me...
Dara replied despondently when she thought of what Minho said that time.
Dara..I know I will be happy...as long as I am with you...he is just a jerk...I am
not anyway like him...trust me...what I want is just you....your heart...your
feeling...nothing else....
Jiyong said frankly.
Dara could no longer hold back her feeling for him by this time, and she fell
into his chest, sobbing hardly.
Jiyong...I thought everything is going to end today..
Dara muttered between her sobs.
Hush now baby girl...you are making my heart ache with your crying....I am
supposed to make you smile...not cry... and one more thing...I still prefer your
old way of addressing me as your baby boy...
Jiyong stroked her silky hair and kissed her forehead lovingly, before
muttering gently.
His words lead his baby girl to chuckle a little, as he wiped off her tears with
his thumbs.
----------------------------------------------------------Looking at each under lovingly under the magnificent ferries wheel, both
smiled at one another while they interlocked their hands, swaying in between
them.
Erm....can I kiss you baby girl?
Jiyong asked shyly and rubbed his neck uneasily when they gazed at each
other. He was not an outspoken guy, and he would ask for her permission
before he proceeded to touch her.
Blushing badly with his sudden request, Dara lowered her head bashfully
before nodding slightly.
Lifting her chin a little, their lips touched gently as both closed their eyes,
savouring the taste of each other.

Their lips were as sweet as chocolate, maybe from the taste of the cakes they
had earlier on.
*Two years later*
"Aww....Baby Hyunnie is so cute..."
Dara squeaked in delight as soon as she saw the baby who was lying inside the
infant tram.
The little one giggled the moment Dara touched his tiny hands gently.
It was Seunghyun and Bom's son who had just turned one today.
To share their happiness, the two organized this party to welcome the new
born, as well as to catch up with their families and friends.
They together with Jiyong and Dara had gotton married on the same day two
years back and Bom conceived shortly after her marriage.
----------------------------------------------------------"Call Aunt Dara....cutie...."
Dara continued to play with her nephew, as she tickled on the baby's flawless
cheek.
Hyunnie kicked his tiny legs a little in the air, before laughing heartily, as if
greeting her.
"Jiyong.... Dara seemed to be very interested in my son...when is it your turn
to give my son a younger cousin?"
Seunghyun hinted Jiyong, who was sitting beside Dara before he passed two
packet of drinks to them.
"Yeah...our Hyunnie had already turned one..."
Bom added on and looked at Dara, before turning her attention to Jiyong.
"Well...there is no hurry....beside...you guys should know I am not really into
kids....they can be quite loud at times..."
Jiyong chuckled and shook his head a little at the thoughts of having his own
children. He was a man who couldnt stand loud noises and it certainly scared
him off with the cries of babies.
"Dont be so negative...they can be angels at times..."
Bom said happily as she carried Hyunnie up from his tram.

"Anyway.. we are happy as what we are now...right baby..?"

Jiyong replied as he nudged a little at Dara's elbow.
Forcing a small smile, Dara remained silent as she continued to play with the
little one.
Actually, she loved kids very much and would like to start a family with him
ever since they had gotton married. However, it seemed like Jiyong had been
putting off this idea strongly, just like what he had said earlier on.
And right now, she could only envied Seunghyun and Bom silently in her
heart, who looked so blissful with their son.
----------------------------------------------------------Dara washed her mouth at the basin in the bathroom. She had threw up again,
the second time in the day.
Looking at herself in the mirror, she sighed silently.
*Flashback*
"Congratulation Mrs Kwon! You are one month pregnant!"
The words kept on ringing in her mind after she went to the clinic last week.
By right, she should be feeling happy over the news.
However, she couldnt as she knew how much Jiyong disliked children.
"Dara...you okie...you looked so pale...did you throw up again?"
Bom asked worriedly as soon as she came into the bathroom, when Dara had
been in it for some time.
"Yeah...maybe its something I took just now..."
Dara replied as she cooked up with some random excuse.
"Really?"
Bom asked suspiciously as she looked at her, not convincing with her answer.
"Yeah....why should I lie to you..."
Dara avoided her eyes and forced out a smile.
"Dara...you should know you cant lie...tell me honestly.. are you....expecting?"

Bom asked seriously. She had somehow guessed as she had exactly the same
symptoms when she was expecting Hyunnie.
"No...how can it be..."
Dara denied immediately.
"Dara...I am not any outsider...you can let me know..."
Bom insisted.
Not able to hide from her anymore, Dara nodded her head slightly.
"Really...thats so great...have you told Jiyong?"
Bom exclaimed as she grabbed her hands excitedly.
Dara shook her head as she leaned against the basin.
"But why....he would be so glad to know that he is going to be a father soon..."
Bom asked in surprise.
"I...I am thinking of taking it away..."
Dara muttered softly.
"What? Why? I thought you adore kids....I can see how much you doted my
Hyunnie..."
Bom widened her eyes and almost yelled after hearing her words.
"I do...but not Jiyong...you heard what he said just now... I had tested him a
lot of times too...he really doesnt want any children..."
Dara replied sadly.
"But..but you can try to talk to him...maybe he will change his mind.. you
never know Dara...its his child after all....dont do anything rash..."
Bom suggested hopefully and held her hands.
"I...really dont know what to do...it just came at the wrong time..."
Dara shook her head as she bit her lips.
"Dara...kids can be really wonderful....you got to consider carefully...its your
flesh and blood..."
Bom tried to talk her around once again.

"I...I will think about it...but you got to promise me not to let anyone
know...including Seunghyun Oppa..."
Dara reminded her seriously.
"I will but you got to promise me to consider it really carefully... all I can say is
no words can describe the feeling of being a mother..."
Bom added on.
Thinking of what Bom had said, Dara fell into deeper thoughts.

"Ahh... Jiyong...what kind of uncle are you...you haven carry my son ever since
he stepped into this world..."
Seunghyun complained after the girls left them at the bench, before he carried
his son up from the tram.
"Spare me...you know I cant handle kids..."
Jiyong shook his head as he surrendered his hands in the air.
"Come on..it doesnt hurt....I am sure Hyunnie wanted his uncle to carry him
too...right son...nah...carry him..."
Seunghyun added on and asked his new born, before pushing Hyunnie to
Jiyong gently.
"I cant...bro...I dont want to hurt him...he look so fragile..."
Jiyong said anxiously but Seunghyun had already rested Hyunnie onto his
laps.
"Jiyong...hold him...he is going to fall off..."
Seunghyun teased him as he pulled his hands to support the little one.
"Bro...take him back...I dont know how to carry him..."
Jiyong was still shouting for help anxiously and tried to carried the baby in his
arms awkwardly.

"Dont worry Jiyong...you will get use to it after a few more tries..."
Seunghyun chuckled and took a sip at his drink, before looking at Jiyong
amusingly.
Luckily, little Hyunnie was in a happy mood today.
He giggled a little and looked at Jiyong with his shiny bright eyes when Jiyong
lifted him up on his legs.
He laughed further when Jiyong started to swing him in the air after some
time.
Feeling a little exhausted after a while of playing, Hyunnie almost fell to sleep
when Jiyong rested him in his arms.
Circling his small hand onto one of Jiyong's finger, he drifted off to his
dreamland.
Jiyong smiled a little when he placed the baby back into the tram gently.
Maybe having a kid isnt as bad as what he had thought.
----------------------------------------------------------"Why are you so quiet?"
Jiyong asked Dara when they were inside their car, on their way home after
the celebration.
"Nothing...just thinking of little Hyunnie..."
Dara smiled at the thought of her nephew.
"Hadnt you had enough playing with him just now?"
Jiyong chuckled as he took her hands when his car stopped at the red lights.
"Well...he is just so adorable that I simply cant resist...dont you think so?"
Dara added on and smiled sweetly further.
"Well...he is when he didnt cry or throw any tantrums..."
Jiyong replied.
"Are you really that scare of kids?"
Dara asked and turned to him.

"Well...to be honest...I am...I just surrender when I thought of having to take

care of them..."
Jiyong nodded his head and released her hands as soon as the lights turned
green.
Upon hearing his answer, Dara made a decision in her heart silently.
----------------------------------------------------------*A few weeks later*
Dara was in the bathroom taking her shower when her phone rang.
Jiyong, who was sitting near the bedside, helped her to answer her call when
he heard that the water was still running inside the bathroom.
"Hello, is that Mrs Kwon?"
A female voice asked as soon as the line was engaged.
"Erm...she is not around at the moment.. I am her husband... Is there
anything I can help?"
Jiyong asked politely.
"I am calling from Seoul hospital...can you please inform Mrs Kwon to come
for her check-up which is scheduled at 1pm tomorrow? She did not turn up for
the last two appointments..."
The lady said and passed him the message.
"Check-up? For?"
Jiyong asked curiously. He didnt know of any check-up that Dara had went
recently.
"Oh...its just a routine scanning of the foetus development..."
The lady replied.
"Foetus...you mean....my wife is pregnant?"
Jiyong exclaimed unbelievingly.
"Yes...Mrs Kwon is onto her 6th week of pregnancy...the foetus is still very
unstable at this stage...so please get her to come for the check-up..."
The lady added on and reminded.
"O...okie...I...I will let her know.. thanks..."

Jiyong muttered as he pressed the end call button shortly.

----------------------------------------------------------"Did my phone ring just now?"
Dara asked as soon as she came out of the bathroom. She had vaguely heard
the ringing tone earlier on.
"Why didnt you tell me!"
Jiyong asked seriously as he walked towards her.
"Tell you what?"
Dara replied curiously as she looked at him.
"I just received a call from the hospital...why did you keep something so grave
from me..."
Jiyong said, chiding her a little from his tone.
"You...you know about it...anyway...its not important now...I am not planning
to keep it anyway.."
Dara muttered as she made her way to the dressing table.
"You mean you are taking it away...?"
Jiyong asked questioningly.
"Yeah..."
Dara nodded before she started to comb her hair.
"Dara...why are you making decision all by yourself... you didnt even discuss
with me...."
Jiyong exclaimed as he turned her to him.
"Jiyong...I know what you want...I know you dont like to have kids...so dont
worry....everything will be fine after the operation..."
Dara forced a smile as she looked at him.
"Dara...I didnt say I dont want my own child...I forbid you to take away our
child...its the token of our love...how can you just take it away like this..."
Jiyong said seriously as he held her hands.

"I thought you dont want any children..?"

Dara asked in surprise.
"Well...I admit I am not planning any kids in our life at this moment...but
since it is god's will that the little one will be joining us...let it be..."
Jiyong said honestly.
"You dont have to force yourself Jiyong....I know you are not mentally
prepared to become a father now...we can always have one when you think its
time...but if you dont want any...I am fine with that also..."
Dara replied sadly, even though her heart was yearning to have her own kids.
"Baby...dont always think for me...you wanted to keep this child doesnt you?
I wouldnt know how much you adore kids if Seunghyun didnt remind me on
Hyunnie's birthday....you can always let me know if you want a child with
me..."
Jiyong touched her cheeks gently and said.
"It doesnt matter Jiyong...I am fine with any decision from you..."
Dara replied.
Hearing her words, it made Jiyong's heart ached even further.
"You are so silly baby girl...of course I want my own child..."
Jiyong pulled her into his embrace before giving a peck on her forehead.
"Really...I can keep it...?"
Dara's eyes brightened a little after his words.
"Of course you can...and one more thing...I forbid you to keep anything from
me in future..be it big or small matter you clear?"
Jiyong reminded seriously. If he didnt get the call today, the consequences
will be dire.
Nodding her head, Dara smiled happily.
----------------------------------------------------------*Eight months later*
"Dara...your daughter is so adorable...she looked so much like you..."

Bom exclaimed as she looked at the new born, who was lying inside the small
container beside the hospital ward.
"Really...I haven had a good look at her yet.."
Dara said wearily as she sat up with the help of Bom.
"Right Dara...I am sure she will grow up to be as pretty as you...I better book
her now for my Hyunnie.."
Seunghyun chuckled as he carried his son up onto the bed, who was turning
two this year.
"I am fine with it...you have to ask the busy daddy over there though..."
Dara laughed as well before pointing to Jiyong who was busy playing with his
new born daughter.
A nurse came in to feed the baby at this time, but Jiyong insisted on feeding
on his own.
He carried the infant carefully from the container, before feeding her with the
milk.
"Didnt he use to say he cant handle kid?"
Seunghyun asked curiously.
"I dont know also...but then.. he seemed more excited than me when his
precious daughter is born...he is like even busier then me although I am the
one giving birth...I dont even have any chance to see the little one.."
Dara shook her head and complained, before leading all to chuckle.
----------------------------------------------------------*Three years later*
"Omma...I want this..."
Little JiEun swayed Dara's hands and pointed to the big teddy bear
placed neatly on the rack.
"No baby...you already got tons at home..."
Dara shook her head firmly before saying.
"Appa...I want..."

The clever girl shifted her attention to Jiyong immediately, knowing

how much her appa doted on her.
Scooping her off the ground, Jiyong smiled at her daughter lovingly.
"You want this? Appa will buy it for you..."
Jiyong asked and pointed to the huge plush toy.
"Yay! Appa is the best.."
JiEun cheered and smooched a wet kiss on his cheeks at once.
"Jiyong...you are spoiling your daughter again..."
Dara frowned as she shook her head disapprovingly.
"Come on Dara omma...it is not an everyday thing...and dont you
think our precious deserve a reward for being so good today?"
Jiyong said and coaxed his wife quickly, with their daughter nodding
earnestly.
"I really surrender to you two.."
Dara chuckled a little, leading the two to laugh as well.
-- THE END --
