“Princess?”

 

“Yes?”

Days passed by since the incident.  The two didn’t have the chance to speak to each other after they went home because Dara had a practice. She’s been practicing a lot which made her barely got home.

“Good job guys!” Their trainer praised. “You’re getting better each day.”

 

“Kamsahamnida!” They bowed then collapsed on the floor.

 

“Another day of training ends.”  Bommie sighed.

 

“Yessssss!!!” The two three agreed.

 

“Yah unnie! We’ve been bugging you for days. You didn’t even tell us how was your trip with Donghae.”

 

“It’s ok.” She explained briefly.

 

“No. I still smell something fishy here rabbit. I know you. If you’re quiet then it means something happened! Hmmmm… did he confess to you already?” Bommie interrogated.

 

Her eyes went wide. “ What are you talking about Bommie-yah! It’s nothing like that! He’s just a friend.”

 

“Yeah tell it to the marines. But if it’s not the case, then it’s something else right?”

 

“Bommie! I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

 

“Really? Then why did you seem so relaxed this past few days? And mind you Rabbit, you’re glowing!!” Bom accused.

 

“Eh? No I don’t” She denied.

 

“Yes unnie. We’ve been noticing it after you arrived from your ‘trip’.” CL confirmed.

 

“Then you’re all hallucinating! M-maybe because we’re debuting a-another song! Y-yeah! That’s it!” She supplied.

 

“No. I don’t believe it. There’s something in you that’s been going on.” Bom said.

 

“Then what is it huh?” She challenged.

 

“For that , I don’t know. But I’ll know it in the future.” Bom said as a matter of fact.

 

She shrugged. “ If you say so.”

 

“Oh maybe unnie’s like that coz’ she’s excited for her new look!” Minzy beamed.

 

“Oh right! I’m gonna be blonde! Kekekeke. What did you guys think? Will it be ok?”

 

“Of course it is! Everything looks good on you!” CL encouraged.

 

“Keke. I wonder what it will look like.”

 

“Yeah… Yeah…”

 

Their moment of laughter was interrupted when someone called their names.

 

“Girls?”

 

“Deh noona?”

 

“YG sajangnim called for you. He’s waiting for you.”

 

“Oh is that so? Then tell him we’ll be there in a minute.”

 

“Ok”

 

“What did Papa YG called us for?” The maknae wondered.

 

“Molla” Bom answered.

Meanwhile, Seunghyun was at home, busy with phonecalls.

 

“Ms. Kwon, how is it? Is it going well?”

 

“Very very well Mr. Choi. You don’t have to worry about anything here. We’re your best team, remember?”

 

“Yes I’ll keep that in mind.” He said as he massaged his forehead.

 

“Hey, Something’s been bothering you? Or should I say… someone?”

 

“Ms. Kwon stop meddling with my life and just do your job.”

 

“Tsk. Hot-tempered as always. How will she like you if you’re like that. Tsk. Tsk.”

 

“What did you just say Ms. Kwon?” He asked dangerously.

 

“I said Dara won’t like you. You’re so stiff, cold and ughh too much to handle.”

 

“ Ms. Kwon! Take that back or  you’ll never get this job again.” He threatened.

 

“Oh I’m sooo scared Mr. Choi. Come on fire me. Fire me for telling the truth.”

 

“You’re not even telling the truth.”

 

“Oh but I am! You know what Choi, as a friend, I advise you to loosen up. You’re acting like you’re there for business. Chill.”

 

“I am here for business.”

 

“Business? You call marriage a business? Tsk. So you don’t like Dara? Huh?”

 

He couldn’t answer. He didn’t like her. He couldn’t possibly like her right?

 

“No” He said with finality.

 

“Yeah. Tell it to yourself Choi. You’re very obvious.”

 

“What do you mean obvious?”

 

“Obvious that you like her. Because if you don’t, then you wouldn’t be so concerned that she didn’t like you.”

 

“You’re jumping into conclusions already. Didn’t you think I just have pride to save? If she didn’t like me, then I’m not handsome enough. You know how my pride works right?”

 

“Yeah. Lame excuse you got there Choi.”

 

“What ? That’s the most sensible truth I can tell you.”

 

“Uh-huh. But it all comes down to this. You like her. Choi likes Parkkkk~. Choi likes Parkkkk~ Choi likes-”

 

She started to sing in a singsang voice that hurts his eardrum so he decided to end the call.

 

‘That woman! He’s really crazy for hiring her! I guess because she’s efficient when it comes to her job and of course when it comes

to annoying me, she’s the best’

 

I’ve been thinking these past few days about my previous actions. I kept asking myself why I suddenly become aware of the presence of that certain princess who loves to get into my head all the time. I recalled my actions in Jeju Island. Why am I suddenly aware of her needs? I’m not like that since… since forever. I’m not the type of person to show concern for other. I only care about myself. But, when I saw her struggling, in the bus or everywhere, I couldn’t help but be concerned. Then when we were stuck in Busan, I kept saying to myself that I acted that way because I was sick. Yeah! I was sick that’s why I’m acting that why. I couldn’t possibly like her. Yes. No way. I’ve been chasing her for years so why now?

I just need to find a way to get rid of it. And maybe, I should test myself. If I could resist her presence, then I’m good as always. Then if not, welcome to hell.

I made up my mind. Today, I’m visiting her. I’m visiting her so that I could test if I can ignore her. I can’t do it if we’re barely seeing each other these days. She’s been practicing all day so the best way to test myself is to see her myself.

Yes, that’s right. I’m gonna see her.

“Girls, you may all seat down.” YG instructed.

 

“Why did you call us sajangnim?” CL asked directly.

 

“Well you all know that you’ll be releasing another song right?”

 

“Yes” The three answered.

 

“And it’s next week right?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“I’m sorry girls but we have a problem.”

 

“We do?” Bommie asked.

 

YG sighed. “Yes. In fact, it’s a lot of trouble.”

 

“What exactly did you mean Papa YG?”

 

“You see girls. Your MV is still not available till next week.”

 

“But we already filmed it!” CL said.

 

“Yes. But it encountered technical errors. That’s why it won’t be available.”

 

“Then what shall we do? We can’t postpone it. Everyone’s been excited about our new song.” CL said.

 

“Yes. That’s why, I think of another method to release it.”

 

“Then what is it?” Dara asked.

 

“You’ll be making your home made video?”

 

“Home made what?” CL asked flabbergasted.

 

“Home made video.”

 

“You’ll let us make our video?”

 

“Yes.”

 

“OH!! That’s pretty exciting!” The girls squealed.

 

“Yes. But then I wanted it to be shoot in Dara and Seunghyun’s house.” Yg instructed.

 

“Our house? Why? Can’t we just shoot in our dorm?” Dara suggested.

 

“No. It’s too small. And the ambiance for the video is suitable in their house.”

 

“Oh is that so? Sajangnim? Ok” The thee complied except Dara.

 

“But Papa YG. Seunghyun didn’t want any mess. He’s a clean freak I tell you. He won’t permit us.”

 

“Oh but he already agreed.”

 

“What? When?”

 

“Before I told you about it”

 

“But…” Dara was about to say something.

 

“No more buts Dara. Now go. I’m busy.”

 

Dara couldn’t do anything but to follow.

 

“Oh and one more thing. Ask Seunghyun’s help for the video arasso?”

 

“Deh.” They all said then left.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

‘Plan number three ongoing’ Papa YG said in his mind as the girls leave.

“I can’t believe Papa YG’s letting us to do our video!” The maknae beamed.

 

“Yeah me too! I’m so excited! I bet it will be hilarious!” Bom said, giggling.

 

“You think so too? With both your crazy acts together, it will be more than hilarious.” The leader teased.

 

“Yes! Yes!” The three laughed.

 

Dara sighed. Why would Papa Yg want them to shoot their video in their house? It could be elsewhere. Urrrgghgh.

 

“Why are you so upset that we’re filming in your house unnie?” CL asked.

 

“IT’s because knowing us, there will be a lot of mess. A lot of mess means I’m gonna clean it all.”

 

“Keke, Unnie. Don’t think too much.” The maknae said.

 

“Tsk. You don’t know Seunghyun. He’ s such a control freak! He wants everything in order! Uggggh.”

 

“Relax unnie! You really know him well now huh?” The maknae asked.

 

“Yes of course. WE’ve lived for a couple of months already.”

 

“Oh Then… ?” Bom asked.  ‘You’re developing some feelings for him?’ She asked in herself

 

“Then what?” She asked back.

 

She observed her. “Oh never mind.”

 

“Tsk. Acting mysterious now huh Bommie? Tsk. Come let’s just practice.” Dara dragged her then they went to the practice room.

He was watching for a while now. He was beyond mesmerized. She may not be the best dancer but she was the most hardworking one he ever seen. They were in their tenth time already but she’s still not lacking the energy. She’s tired yes, but she didn’t give up until she perfected the steps. ‘She’s got the passion’

 

It was the first time that he watched her and he’s thankful that he went today.

 

“Oh Mr. Choi?” said the voice in his back.

 

“Oh it’s you! Why don’t you come inside?”

 

“No it’s ok.” He declined.

 

“No I insist. You’re here to see your fiancée right? So let’s not waste your effort.” The trainer said then dragged him.

 

“Dara! There’s someone visiting you! Accompany him first.”

 

They stopped dancing and looked at the newcomer.

 

“Tabi?” She said.

 

He smirked. So she’s still calling him that huh?

 

“I’ve seen him standing outside. So girls, why don’t we take a break first?” The trainer said.

 

“Deh.”

 

They all sat on the couch nearby.

 

“Seunghyun-sshi, come sit with us.” CL politely offered.

 

Seunghyun obliged much to three’s surprise. They didn’t know he will follow her. She was just being polite.

 

He sat next to Dara.

 

“So what brought you here?” Dara asked.

 

“Nothing. Just visiting my uncle and thought that I’ll visit you also.”

 

“Oh.”

 

Silence. Then suddenly Bom shouted.

 

“Oh! I forgot that I have to buy some corns!”

 

“But we’re not yet done training! Besides, oppa didn’t forbid you to eat it”

 

“But I’m one stubborn lady so I’m breaking all the rules. So who’s coming with me in the supermarket?” Bom asked.

 

“me!” The maknae raised her hand.

 

“Then I’ll also go. Dara, just accompany Seunghyun. We’ll just buy in a few minutes.” CL said.

 

“Oh o-ok.” She couldn’t help but to agree.

 

Soon, the three were out.

 

“So why are you really here?”

 

“No reason.” He shrugged.

 

She sighed. She placed her back on the couch then place her right arm in her eyes. She was very tired. Very very tired to even talk to

him.

 

“Hey tired already?” He asked.

 

“Hmmmm.” She silently agreed.

 

“Tsk. You shouldn’t practice that hard. Your body might not take it well.”

 

“I don’t have a choice. I’m the weakest of us all that’s why I should take double efforts in order to cope up with them.” She

explained.

 

“But you’re suffering.”

 

“I’m ok. Just tired.”

 

“Tsk.”

 

He observed her. Her back’s still on the couch, She was exhausted for sure.

 

Suddenly, he went closer to her then lift her up.

 

“Wha-“ She couldn’t continue when he suddenly place her in his lap.

 

“Yah?! What is this?!” She shrieked.

 

“Just relax.” He said then massaged her.

 

“W-why? Wh-what are y-you doing?” She stuttered.

 

“You have so many tense muscles you know?” He said

 

She couldn’t reply back. What he’s doing was very relaxing. She continues to enjoy his massage and relax.

 

“You shouldn’t be practicing hard like that. I know you wanted to be on their level but you should also think about yourself.”

 

When he was finished massaging her, he hugged her waist then placed his head on her neck.

 

“You smell good as always.” He said.

 

“You’re smelling me again! And here I thought you’re only doing that when you’re sick.” She accused.

 

“Well I’m not sick today.” He said as he continued to hug her.

 

When she knew he was not going to let her go, she just rested her back on him. Resisting him could drain all her energy.

 

“Princess.”

 

“Hmmm?” She said, clearly enjoying the position.

 

“I like this position a lot.”

 

“Hmmmm.” She agreed silently.

 

“Let’s stay like this for awhile ok?” He said.

 

He’s not thinking clearly right now. He said that he wanted to prove himself that he could resist her but here he is now, cuddling to

her like a lost puppy. He couldn’t help himself. He missed her. He missed her warmth. It’s been days since they did this. She was always practicing so they barely saw each other. He guessed he just gave the pathetic excuse of testing himself just to see her. Screw pride.  He should do more than this.

 

“Princess?”

 

“Yes?” He looked at her.

 

Then without warning, he crushed her lips to her. They kissed many times already but every time they kiss it tops the last one. They continued to kiss oblivious to the three eyes that went wide as saucers.

 

They all have the same thought. ‘Goodness! They’re kissing! They’re kissing for real?!
