The Dance
Dara ChroniclesYoung Bae's POV
A fast song is being played; friends, couples, groupies are are dancing in the middle of the dancefloor as the beat plays loud on the speakers.
I saw Yuri looking over my direction. I kept acting busy at the refreshment table; any moment i know she'll be walking over here, again...
I kept giving her excuses why i can't dance yet; but i know sooner or later i have to say yes.
Declining Yuri, is very unmanly.. i know!
------------------------------------------------
after two songs:
I'm getting bored, but i have to keep putting up an "enjoying face". i breathe out loud.
I knew someone who can change my mood right now, but i know she won't be attending. It would be a huge difference if she did.
Suddenly the lighting dimmed and the intro of my favorite song started playing. I noticed Yuri standing up from her table and started walking toward me. I guess i really have to dance now... maybe this can make up for my rude behavior.
i walked around the table and decided to meet her halfway. I saw her face lit up.
Farther down the hall, i saw the side door open. I really wouldn't have paid much attention to it but it's in my range of sight- behind Yuri.
Someone walked in and from the shadow the light cast on that persons back, i can tell it a girl. Her built is so familiar that i have this foolish thought that it might be her... Maybe i'm really hoping she'll come that's why my mind is making me see waht i want to see.
But i can't take my eyes from her, i have to make sure.
I started taking bigger steps and passed by Yuri; later, i would've realized that i have offended her again. But at that moment all i wanted to know is if it's really her.
A few more feet and i'm directly in front of her, i started to slow down.
She haven't notice me yet; she was looking aroung looking for something or someone. Not until i'm 3 steps before her did her eyes found mine. She looked surprised, but after a few seconds, her breathetaking smile that i've been crazy about formed in her face.
"You came..." I said when i stopped in front of her.
"Yes... I'm here." She answered as she looked down at her hands.
I was speechless... i can't say anything for some time. She looked up noticing that and smiled again.
"I'm really here...' She said "... See?" And then she pat my face softly, in my cheek.
She was about to remove her hand when i suddenly grabbed it and held it there; i smiled back at her.
"I'm glad." I answe
