The club was crowded. People were dancing merrily at the dance floor. The bass were booming from the speakers. My friends are dancing lasciviously at the back of the VIP couch where I was sitting. I sipped a drink of my The Macallan Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch Whisky. I sighed. I was bored. You know what I hate about disco clubs the most? It is when people are dancing on the dance floor and not appreciating the music that was playing. I gulped the whole glass of my scotch and stood up. I started walking to the rails of the VIP lounge. I started to look at the ridiculous people dancing and doing crazy things. Pathetic. I could've stayed at home and read a good book than be stuck on this damned place surrounded by pitiful people. I moved my eyes towards the entrance door and observing the new people that just came in. What the hell are the bouncers doing and letting in more idiotic spoiled brats in the club? This is getting out of hand. I tried to massage my neck with a hand trying to calm myself. I looked at the DJ and started to imagine killing him because he looked ridiculous dancing on his platform. I moved my gaze to the bar when my eyes caught a glimpse of a beautiful creature. I squinted my eyes trying to focus on this beautiful person wearing a hooded jacket. She was alone drinking at the bar. I let out a smile thinking she might’ve wanted to just leave. I turned around and started to walk out of the VIP lounge. I felt a hand on my shoulder trying to pull me back. “Where are you going, Jiyong?” TOP asked with his query look. I snickered and replied, “I’m trying to enjoy myself.” I shoved his hand from my shoulder and went down the stairs.

I started to walk my way to the bar and towards this faery creature. When I’ve arrived at the bar, I glanced at her. She was so transfixed with the glass she was holding. It was half full. I looked at the waiter and said, “I’ll have a martini.” I must’ve drank to much now. However, I just wanted to have something on my hand. I sat on the chair while waiting for my drink. “Are you okay?” I asked with a loud voice. I saw her flinched. I startled her. She nodded. “My name is Jiyong, by the way. May I know your name, if it’s alright with you?” She looked at me with such timidness and leaned a bit closer to me with her head slightly bent down and said, “My name is Dara.” Then, she hurried to her usual position. She was interesting. “You don’t want to be here, do you Dara?” She shook her head. “So, you liked it here?” She nodded. “May I ask why?” She bit her lower lip. After a few moment, she leaned a bit closer to me again and said, “I wanted to listen to the music.” And again, she hurried to her usual position looking intently at her half full glass. I was taken aback. “You know, this is not really a nice place to enjoy the music. I mean, people are noisy, the place is freakishly hot and the surrounding is filled with cigarette smoke.” I said trying to make my voice a bit louder since the music was also getting louder. She smiled, still looking at her glass, and said, “I wanted to hear the music through the large speakers. I wanted to hear the loud bass. Every beat seems to shake my heart. It’s making me feel alive.” I didn’t notice I was already leaning so close to her. Why was I so curious about what she was wanting to say? I bit my lower lip. I wanted to know her. I wanted to talk more. TOP approached us and he placed his hand on my shoulder, “Jiyong, we are going to move to club Ultima. CL sent me a message and said she will be playing the new song she had composed. She wanted us to be there to celebrate.” I hastily shifted my gaze to Dara. I stared at her for a moment. “Well, if you want, you can bring your friend with you?” I heared TOP saying. “Well?...” TOP was waiting. “Would you like to come with us, Dara?” I asked her. She shook her head. “I promise to take care of you. I mean, CL is a very good musician and club Ultima has excellent sound equipments. I bet you're going to enjoy the music there even more.” I said hoping she would agree but she shook her head again. I let out a disappointing smile. “I understand. Well, it was nice talking to you, Dara.” She made a single nod and didn’t look at me. I placed the money on the counter to pay for my drink. TOP handed my thick coat and started to walk towards the exit. I started to walk and follow him. I suddenly made a stop. I realized I might regret not able to see her again. In my heart, I wanted her to come with me. She seemed to be alone, anyway. I made up my mind. I turned around and walked back
