Song for this Chapter is entitled "The Vow" by Geoff Moore

I could make a promise to you,
But that would be too easy to do.
You see I've made them before,
And broken them
And they're no good anymore.

So I'll dig a little bit deeper,
Give you something you can keep
I will make a vow to you,
And it will never change
No matter what I do.

Right here, right now,
In the midst of the crowd,
I stand alone and make my vow.
Whatever it takes I will be faithful
This is my vow.

As the words fall from my lips,
We both know the life I live,
How I stumble and fall,
How many times I land short of the call.

I will confess my inadequacy,
Throw myself into the mystery.
That somehow in the deoth of your love,
You will help me
Do what I'm not capable of.

Right here, right now,
In the midst of the crowd,
I stand alone and make my vow.
Whatever it takes I will be faithful.

Right here, right now,
Let there be no doubt.
Let every whisper, with every shout,
Let the whole world know I will be faithful,
This is my vow.

December 24, 2016 Chateau Makhrani, Tbilis, Georgia

This Chateau was built as a one of the houses for the royal family - it is popular as a winery but because of the beautiful mini-castle and the sorroundings it is becoming a popular venue for weddings. Painted purely in white the massive pillars in front of the house add to the majestic look of the place. Dara looked at the beautiful scenery and knew that whoever planned this shoot made the right choice.

When the wedding march began Sandara felt her heart pounding so loud she can hear it. There is something different about this shoot, she cannot pinpoint what it was until the doors to the majestic chapel opened. She heard the crowd clapped their hands the moment she came into full view of the chapel. Decorated in roses of different pastel colors like her bouquet, the choir loft above have hanging curtain like lei made of roses again of different colors. She was amazed at how beautiful the chapel was. Then all of a sudden her mom and her brother Thunder emerged on both her sides.She was confused at first and was in the verge of tears when she realized that this was not a photoshoot afterall. Her mom smiled at her...

"Mom you knew?"

"Jiyong asked for my permission and I had to agree...don't cry this is your happy day smile, everyone has been waiting for you." she motioned to the audience composed mostly of their closest friends +82 gang, BB and 2NE1, their dancers in YG and the YG team including the CEO and his family who stood in the pews in front of the altar. She started to walk down the aisle and waved her hand to them.

"Nunna you look beautiful" Thunder his brother commented, "I'm so happy for you ... finally" he said as he held her elbow. She was happy they were with her otherwise it would have been difficult for her to take a step after seeing how the chapel was all dressed up with flowers of her choice, seeing all her friends in tuxedo and pink dresses waiting for her and clapping the moment she stepped in.

Her initial shock was replaced by a kind of happiness still unknown to her and as she looked at the altar and saw Jiyong wearing his white and gold habit a' la francaise (it looks like her favorite coat he wore in the concern in the Philippines when she watched it only this one was more elegant and elaborate - he looked like a prince) -  she knew she just made the right choice to marry him.

Jiyong cannot take his eyes off her either, she is a beautiful bride - all the hardships in preparation and the difficulty of keeping it a secret finally was rewarded as his bride walked down the aisle in a very beautiful wedding gown that he co-designed with her favorite couturier. This place was scouted for him by the YG team about two months ago and when he saw the pictures of the place he knew this is somewhere they would both want to be married. Dara was blooming and he was happy he was the reason for it.

Their families were there dressed in hanbok. Dara  realized that this was the reason why he was so insistent that the photoshoot happen today - the anniversary of their engagement last year - he wanted it to be their wedding day too!!! "Oh Jiyong you are indeed heaven sent" she said to herself.

The entourage were of course Big Bang and 2NE1 girls who were complete in their pink bridemaid gowns and BB boys in their identical tuxedos. She waved at them and they giggled while she passed. So this was their big secret wow!!! Then they stopped in front of the altar as her groom bowed down to her mom and embraced Thunder.

"Please take care of my nunna." Thunder whispered to Jiyong.

"I will for the rest of my life..."Jiyong smiled before taking her hand. She punched him lightly in his arms as they stood together.

"You are so naughty, how did you arrange all of this? Gosh what would have happened if I refused to come?" she looked at him.

"You won't !  I would have done everything to get you here and I know how much you love being with me so I am sure you will come. I begged my lucky stars for you to come and they listened." Jiyong grinned confidently.

"Ji thank you..." she said looking at Jiyong with deep admiration and love.
