Jiyong's dragging me away from the crowd, away from Seunggi most definitely and leaving Bom all clueless. 

He led us upstairs to an empty sitting area and asked me to sit. I pulled my arm and crossed them. I told him that I'm not 
going to sit down unless he tell me what's his reason of causing such things. 

	
"Don't you get it, Dara?" He looked mad. 


"No, Ji, I don't!" 

	

"He likes you and it's quite on obvious that he's been hitting on you." His anger got the best of him but he decided to sit 
down and calm himself down. 

	
"Are you jealous of him?" I asked. 

	
"Are you that stupid to realise that?" 

	
"I am not stupid! I'm not going to stay and argue with anymore, I'm tired of this." I was going to leave.. 

	"Dara, please." I looked at him and his expression changed from anger to sadness. "Let's talk, okay?"

	
"We already did, Ji." 

	
"No, we need a serious talk. No more arguing. I promised I won't lash out on anything." Yeah, right. He's always mad even 
at the silliest thing. "Please, sit down?" 

	
Fine. I gave up and sat down on the seat opposite from where he was sitting. 

	"Do you still love me?" Huh? Is he for real? 

	
"Of course, I do, babo." I saw him smilling. "Do you?" 

	
"Of course I love myself." Ugh so annoying. "I was kidding. Yes, I love you so much that it hurts." 

	
"You thought it didn't hurt me too? Jiyong, you left me clueless for the past few months." There, I said it. 

	"I'm sorry. I was being mad for no reason and I was very disappointed with myself back then you know, after all those 
scandals. I thought that I didn't deserve you." I felt it, his pain and all of his sufferings, in his voice. 

	"You pushed me away, Ji." I said in a low voice, half-hoping that he wouldn't heard it. 

	

"I know." He knows? "Teddy hyung told me that you flew all the way from Japan to talk to me but I didn't even open the door." 

I gasped. He knew. 

	

"Why didn't you..?" 

	
"I was asleep, Dara. I had a long day and I hadn't sleep for two days. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push you away or 
anything, I just thought that you didn't love or trust me enough." 


That brought tears to my eyes, but at the same time there was this piercing pain stabbing through my heart. He thought I 
did not love him. He thought that I did not trust him! 

	
"Ji.. How can you said that I did not love or trust you? You should know better." 

	
"I know, Dara. I know now that how wrong I was. I'm sorry." 


Slowly he was going to reach for my hands. 

	
No. Not now. I need some time to think this through, he wasn't the one who was hurt. He hurt me too. 

	

"I'm sorry, Jiyong. I need some time."


Then I left him and walked away, from him, from the club. 

		

- Jiyong's POV - 

	
"I'm sorry, Jiyong. I need some time." I could not believe what I just heard. 

My words must have really hurt her. I could have lied about my feelings but I chose not to, more lies would mean hurting

her more.  I stayed there, in my seat, too shocked to move and she left.

I could understand what she was feeling at that time. I wish I could turned back time. I wish I could do everything all over again.  But it's too late for that now. I should have known better.

I know how much Dara was hurt before by her past boyfriends, and I don't want to be like any of them. I want to be better,

but my judgements had failed me. 

I should have known better. 

		
- Dara's POV -



I could not hold my tears as I walked down the stairs. Luckily, Bom was waiting for me there as if she knew that something 
bad was bound to happen. 


"Dara-yah, are you alright?" I shook my head. "Arasso, let's get you out of here. You can tell me all about it later." 

We then walked out of the club, Bom texted C.L that we were leaving and she rushed to the front door as we waited for the
taxi. Although she was puzzled as to what was happening, she didn't ask or said a word until we got home. I told them 
everything that happened in the car and in the club.
