''Yoebo, tell Dara that I want them here tonight for dinner.'' Hyun Suk told Eunju who was fixing his coat and tie.

 

 

“What's with that sudden invitiation, yeobo?”

 

 

“Ani… I was just curious about what happened last night. They didn’t even tell us they’re leaving.”

 

 

''Aisht... Don't you dare interfere with those two, Hyun Suk. Every couple undergoes trials and fights and misunderstandings... As if you haven't been there, aigoo.'' Eunju told her husband.

 

 

''I just want to talk to those two that's all. Besides, I heard Dara will be appearing as a judge in fashion reality show. She hasn't told us about it yet. I just heard from Bom.''

 

 

''Maybe she just wants to surprise us. Aiyoo... Stop acting like that. Those two are already grown ups.''

 

 

 

''I just want to talk to them over dinner, that's all yeobo. Tell them I'm expecting them tonight.''

Dara covered her eyes with an arm when her vision was met by the blinding rays of the sun. She moaned in discomfort upon feeling the pain in between her thighs down to her legs and she could just try to recall how many times they did their so called ''experiments'' last night.

 

 

And, it almost made her choke.

 

 

She couldn't count it. Jiyong was like possessed by some sort of a -god that he ravished her nonstop as if he couldn't just get enough of her. She was shocked alright because it wasn't like their first one, slow and painful. This time, he went haywire. He worshipped her body, kissed each and every part of her his sinful lips could reach, tasted everything she could offer him and countlessly claimed her as his. She couldn't complain though. She'd be considered a hypocrite if she would because truthfully, she enjoyed it. It felt so good she fought hard not to beg him again for it.

 

 

Her hands flew to her cheeks as she tried to rub it, feeling it burning in embarrassment. Did she just admit she enjoyed it?

 

 

 

''Omo... I think I was possessed too! Kyaaah!'' she said as she went underneath the thick blanket and shrunk herself into a ball. She fluttered her eyes upon recalling their deeds. How can she face him now?

 

 

She reminded herself she needs to step up a bit. She needs to make him feel secure. She doesn't even understand why he acted that way last night but she wouldn't want to see him that mad again. He was scary, it took all her guts to face him.

 

 

She heaved a sigh and swallowed hard before removing the blanket. She sat up slowly, cautiously bringing her feet to the floor and holding onto the side table for support. She lazily reached out for her robe as she chuckled at her situation.

 

 

''Just when I need to attend an urgent meeting. How can I walk properly this time? Aigoo... Babo Dara-ah...'' she said as she shook her head walking out of the room.

JIYONG'S POV

 

 

 

 

 

WOOOOHOOO!

 

 

 

I pumped my fist in the air while the other one's holding a turner. This day's one of the best. I felt my body energized with good vibes upon spending the whole night with my baby girl in bed.

 

Aigoo...

 

Little buddy's in a good mood too!

 

Mwehehehe...

 

 

 

I felt like I was a frustrated scientist, going crazy over her with our experiments and she's a ing hot specimen. So cute and y and...

 

 

Please. I should stop. I need to think straight, she's probably still sore.

 

My poor jagiya.

 

 

 

That's why I woke up early to prepare her a relaxing bath. The tub's ready! She needs some pampering. Was I too rough last night? I hope she's fine.  I smirked internally with my genius plan. Who knows she might ask me to join her in the tub later on?

 

 

 

And right now I am trying to cook something for her and frying eggs and bacon strips along with toasted bread and hot chocolate are the safest stuffs to prepare.

 

 

 

''Niga saranghaneun naneun sorry i’m a bad boy~ Geurae charari tteona jal gayo you’re a good girl~''

 

 

I sang dramatically and I just can't stop though I seriously look like a babo while doing so.

 

 

Oh yeah, I'm a bad boy and she's a good girl... Couldn't help but feel sorry I scared her last night with my stupid tantrums.

 

 

Heol! Who wouldn't get mad? I used to be her one and only! Her first and last! I didn't know there's another man who knew her better and ahead of me! Who fancied her before me!

 

 

 

NO ING WAY!!!

 

 

 

ONLY KWON JIYONG TOUCHES HER SKIN!!!

 

 

 

 

Damn that bastard! I could still feel my blood boil just by the mere picture of him touching my girl's cheeks and looking her in the eye! How dare him even talk to me proudly like that!

 

 

 

 

Good thing baby girl knows how to tame me. Aigoo... Such a wise little rabbit... Can't help but feel giddy just by thinking how feisty she was last night but she's still as amazingly innocent whenever she withdraws from her actions and holds back. She'll always be a mystery I'd be most willing to solve. She's just...

 

 

 

Ughhhh!!! Damn! I almost forgot the bacons I'm frying!

 

 

 

''Sigani galsurok nal almyeoneun alsurok silmangman namatgetjiman~''

 

 

 

I sang once more as I served it on a platter. I was about to turn around and place it on the table when I heard a cute giggle from behind.

 

 

 

Sh*t!

 

 

 

 

''Good morning.... OP-PA...'' she said with that wicked grin.

 

 

GOD KILL ME NOW! LET ME DIE IN HER ARMS!

 

 

 

Since when did this ahjumma learn to use that tone?

 

 

 

 

''W-w-hat are you doing here? Aisht!'' I rushed to her side as soon as I placed the platter on the table. She was leaning on the fridge, chuckling adorably.

 

 

''You're cute with that, Jiyong.'' she said as she pointed on me.

 

Oh well... I am wearing nothing but my spongebob boxers and her cute floral apron. I just bought this boxers before coz I find it cute and earlier this morning I was in a hurry that’s why I just put it on. Besides, little buddy has been naughty and angry last night. I think it’s nice that I covered ‘him’ with something cute and wholesome this time.

 

 

 

 But... Wait... Exposing too much skin like this is a no-no inside out household. She used to freak out... Did she just say I'm cute in this?

 

 

 

I mentally made a note in my mind: ''MUST BUY A LOT OF SPONGEBOB BOXERS LATER ON.''

 

 

 

BUT...

 

 

WAIT...

 

 

THIS. ISN'T. SO. COOL.

 

 

 

DAMN.

 

 

 

 

I swear the boys- those s, will laugh nonstop at me if they're here to witness me turn from a badass Seoul PD inspector to this... This... Aisht!

 

 

 

This is only for my jagiya to see!

 

 

 

I grinned evilly at her, wanting to the way she's teasing me right now. I cupped her cheeks and encircled her waist with and arm and pulled her closer. And I rejoiced when I saw her surprised look.

 

 

 

''Baby don’t leave me, I know you still love me...

Wae geurae soljikhi na malhae niga pillyohae my lay lay lay lay lady...

 

my lay lay lay lay lady~''

 

 

I sang to her as I looked deeply into her eyes. I wanted to laugh at her when she blinked her eyes nonstop but I can't. She's too cute I could just kiss her on her forehead. 

 

 

''Good morning, baby...'' I told her as i wiggled my brows.

 

 

She giggled some more before pushing me away a bit.  ''Good morning... Seems like you're in a good mood now...''

 

 

''Hell, yeah...'' I winked at her before leaning forward to her ear. ''And even little buddy is...''

 

 

''Y-y-ah!'' she hit me on the chest. I looked at her flustered face and I love it. Hahaha! You cute little tease! I wonder what she's wearing inside her robe, though. Damn li'l buddy! Stop reacting too much every ing time!

 

 

''Did I hurt you last night?'' I asked her. I was really worried. I think I was a bit rough with her.

 

To my relief, she just shook her head. ''I'm fine...'' she said briefly but I know she’s telling otherwise. I didn’t press on it more though. I’ll just take good care of her the whole day. Ho ho ho!!!

 

 

 ''You're okay now? No more issues?'' she asked.

 

 

 

''No more... I'm sorry baby... Just can't help it...'' I said apologetically.

 

 

She nodded and hugged me. ''I don't want you going mad again like that, Jiyong. If there's something wrong, let's talk about it. Let's settle things. It should be that way, right?''

 

 

 

I nodded in agreement. I was wrong. So wrong...

 

 

''I'm sorry baby... I really am...'' I told her as I her hair. She just nodded and hugged me again.

 

 

"One more thing... I thought you're trying to quit smoking already? Last night's the second time I caught you smoking again. It's bad for your healtth Jiyong... I told you---"

 

"I'm sorry baby..." I said as I hushed her lips with my finger. "Won't do it again... I'll really try hard this time... I'm sorry please, don't give me that disappointed look on your face." I pleaded her.

 

She just looked at me for a moment bere heaving a sigh. "Better be sure Ji..." she said as she looked away.

"Promise..." I said and it's not just a 7-letter word. I mean it. She just nodded before looking past me.

 

 

''What's for breakfast?'' she asked and walked slowly to the table.

 

 

''Don't worry jagiya, I prepared something safe and edible for my queen.'' I assured her and she just chuckled upon seeing my masterpiece. ''Would you want to eat now or take a bath first? Tub's ready with warm water and lavender oil.'' I told her and winked meaningfully. She just rolled her eyes.

 

 

Kyaaaah! She got what I meant!

 

 

 

 

 

 

''No. I don't like that look in your eyes, Jiyong.''

 

 

 

What the---

 

 

Damn! This is so disappointing!

 

 

 

 

''But... But... You should stay at home. We should skip work.''

 

 

''I can't... I have an important meeting today.''

 

 

''And that's more important than... Cuddling with me all day long?'' I pouted.

 

 

Aisht! This day's supposed to be Little Buddy's day!

 

 

 

''Jiyong, seriously, stop acting like a kid.'' She said and crossed her arms over her chest while cocking her eyebrows.

 

 

 

Okay. Must stop whining. Ahjumma's on the loose.

 

 

''Arasso... You're the boss... I'll drive you to your office later.'' I told her dejectedly, my shoulders sinking down to the ground.

 

 

 

''I'll take a bath first.'' she said and turned away. But before she could even leave the kitchen, I immediately grinned evilly before carrying her in my arms the way a groom should do to her bride.

 

 

''Yaaaaah put me dowwn Jiyoooooong!!!''

 

 

 

''I'll just take you to the bathroom then I'll wake Seungri up for breakfast.''

 

 

 

''Better be sure! Yah!!!''

 

 

 

 

 

---

 

 

 

 

 

 

Seungri furrowed his brows while eyeing the door to the apartment next to his like an idiot.

 

 

''Aigoo... I hope noona's fine.'' he said sadly. Knowing his Jiyong hyung's temper, he could just fear for Dara's life...

 

Err... Tiny body.

 

 

Last night, he saw Jiyong pass by him with that dark menacing aura he almost crouched down in fear for his own safety. A few seconds, Dara was following him and she looked bewildered. It doesn't take a genius to figure out the two were on a fight. He wanted to warn Dara but he just stood there frozen, he could just pray for her.

 

 

 

''Aisht! What is that noise?'' he leaned an ear against the door when he heard Dara screaming.

 

 

''Oh my gaaaaahd!!! Noona!'' he rang the bell simultaneously as he kept shouting.

 

 

 

 

 

''HYUUUNG!!! DON'T YOU DARE HURT NOONA! UNCLE HYUN SUK'S GONNA KILL YOU! YAH!''

 

 

 

 

 

''NOONAAAA! NOOOONAAAA!''

 

 

 

 

 

 

''WHAT THE SEUNGRI!'' Youngbae dashed out of their apartment followed by Daesung.

 

 

 

''YAH! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, YOU BABO?'' Daesung asked, obviously annoyed by his noise. ''YOU WANNA GET KICKED OUT OF THIS BUILDING?''

 

 

 

''Hyung! Noona's screaming! I think Jiyong hyung is doing something to her! I told you! Hyung was mad last night!'' Seungri told the two.

 

 

''Omo!'' Daesung's tiny eyes struggled to widen. ''HYUNG!!! NOONA!!!'' he yelled as he kept rapping the door.

 

 

 

''Open up! Hyuuung!!! Noo--- OUCCCHHH!!! WHAT THE HELL HYUNG?'' Seungri rubbed his head when Youngbae hit him.

 

 

''You idiots! Jiyong could be scary when he's mad but that's Dara noona we're talking about here. You think Jiyong is capable of hurting her?''

 

 

Seungri and Daesung looked at each other before straightening up, trying to regain their composure.

 

 

''N-n-no?'' they answered in sync.

 

 

''Then what the are you doing?'' Youngbae snapped at the two.

 

 

''B-b-ut... B-b-ut... Noona was screaming!''

 

 

 

Just then the door flung open revealing Jiyong who looks mad as hell.

 

''WHAT ARE YOU UP TO THIS TIME YOU R....A.....T?   !!!''

 

 

SILENCE.

 

 

 

DEAFENING SILENCE.

 

 

 

 

 

 

EERIE SILENCE...

 

 

 

 

 

The boys would have cringed in horror and scrambled away in fear for their dear lives upon seeing that look on Jiyong’s face…

 

 

…Hadn’t he revealed himself in such a state they couldn’t even imagine him putting himself into.

 

 

 

 

 

''PWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!''

 

 

 

'' MAN! WHAT THE ?''

 

 

 

''WAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH!!! ! MY STOMACH!!!''

 

 

 

''YOU WORRIED US! DAMN YOU! WHERE'S NOONA?''

 

 

''I CAN'T HAHAHAHA!!! NOONA'S PROBABLY SCREAMING, ORDERING HIM AROUND LIKE A BOSS!''

 

 

 

''DAMN THAT SPONGEBOB BOXERS!!!''

 

 

 

 

“AND HIS SQUIDWARD’S HIDING INSIDE IT!”

 

 

 

 

 

“YAH!!! ARE CALLING MY LIL BUDDY SQUIDWARD???!!!! AISHT YOU BASTARDS! YOU'RE GONNA GET IT FROM ME!!!”

 

 

 

 

 

---

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

''Oh my God...'' Minzy said as she glared at Dara from head to foot. ''You look.... You look... Unnie! What's youR secret? Why are you glowing like that?'' Minzy asked in envy.

 

 

 

''W-w-hat?''

 

 

 

''Seriously, Mingkki, you wouldn't wanna know.'' CL told the makne as she eyed Dara intently before looking at her own prettily adorned nails. ''You're too young for that, right unnie?''

 

 

 

Dara must've sensed what CL was talking about, she almost choked on her coffee.

 

 

 

''I.... I don't know what you're talking about.'' she said before turning once more to the files on her desk.

 

 

 

''Really now unnie?'' CL smirked as she stood up from the couch and walked towards her.

 

 

 

''If I were you, I would have gone with a scarf... BB creams just don't work. Are those love bites? God… Jiyong oppa has really tainted your innocence…'' she whispered to Dara before ticking her tongue, leaving goose bumps on her skin.

 

 

 

''N-n-o---''

 

 

''Shhh... Let's fix it.'' CL said. ''Minzy-ah,''

 

 

''Neh unnie?''

 

 

 

''Unnie here got some rashes. Let's find her a scarf. She can't face the Onstyle executives in such a state, can she?''

 

 

''Omo! Ppalli unniie! Let's go!''

 

 

 

 

Dara could just clamp in horror as soon as the two left her office. She just got busted.

 

 

''Aigoo, Jiyong-ah.'' she said as she banged her head lightly on the table. She was still buried deep in her own pit of embarrassment when her phone rang.

 

 

 

 

 

 

''Yoboseyo? Omma! Neh? Tonight?...... Oh, s-s-ure... Neh... I'll just let Jiyong know... Arasso... Love you omma...''

 

 

Dara leaned back on her chair as she fiddled with her phone. She keyed in a message and sent it to Jiyong, not wanting to make a call and disturb him in the middle of his work.

 

 

 

---

 

 

 

''Sir!'' the Seoul City Jail wardens saluted him when he passed by. He acknowledged it and immediately went to meet the person he needs to see in purpose.

 

 

 

''Thank you.'' he told the warden as he sat down on the cold metal chair and faced the man across him in cuffs with a serious note.

 

 

''What brings you here?'' Jaejoong asked straightly.

 

 

 

''I miss you, dude...''

 

 

 

'' you, dude!'' Jaejoong kicked him in the shin from under the table as they laughed maniacally.

 

 

''That hurts you idiot!''

 

 

'' I think I already have an idea why you're here.'' Jaejoong smirked.

 

 

''Bet you do. Aisht!''

 

 

''Another bastard?''

 

 

''Damn... Why do you and your likes even exist on Earth?''

 

''Yah!''

 

 

 

 

''Aisht... I didn't know she's comfortable with another man.'' Jiyong started. ''It's supposed to be just me!!!''

 

 

''You little piece of--- Yah! Stop acting like that! I bet she'll kick you out of your house once she sees this side of you.'' Jaejoong glowered at him. ''What's the name of your next murder victim?''

 

 

 

''Heard of a bastard named Song Joongki?'' Jiyong asked him in return.

 

 

''Neh... He's a well known photographer. He's been invited to different places for lectures and exhibits and-- Omona! That's CL's cousin! What is wrong with you!''

 

 

''You know I hate it when a guy gets touchy with my Dara.''

 

 

Jaejoong rolled his eyes. Yeah he almost forgot, this is Kwon Jiyong he's talking to. Does he need to get reminded? He almost felt his wrath just by getting interested to Dara.

 

 

What more this guy whom the raging Dragon said was being touchy to the girl?

 

 

 

''Hey dude, let's put it this way, arasso? Joongki might be just like another Teddy or Se7en to her. And she's just like a little sister to him.''

 

“Aisht!”

 

“What?”

 

 

''Here I am again trying to talk to you because  those s were laughing at me nonstop since this morning and I couldn't talk to them seriously, while TOP hyung's on a honeymoon vacation with Bom noona. And somehow… Somehow dude, I was expecting you'd understand me, but you--- AISHT!''

 

 

''What's the point of being jealous over someone who's already a loser in the first place?'' Jaejoong asked as his expression turned serious.

 

 

''Bwoh?''

 

 

''Who has her? Who is her man? It's you Jiyong. At the end of the day, her choice matters most regardless how hard the other guy tries to get her.''

 

 

Jiyong could just look at the man in front of him. This man who used to be a rival, a threat, his words somehow made him feel better. He mentally whacked his head.

 

 

''I got it... One last more...''

 

 

''What?''

 

 

''What made you give up on her?''

 

 

 

 

---

 

 

 

 

''It's an honor, Dara-ssi. Can't wait to start filming the audition episodes with you and of course, CL-ssi.'' the show's director told them.

 

After almost two hours of deliberations, explanations, and clarifications, the meeting finally ended. In few days, the camera will roll to film the audition process for Korea's franchise of The Next Top Model. Dara couldn't help but get excited. CL on the other hand isn't new to this. She's been part of Project Runway before and she's appeared in numerous ads and cf's and shows being the famous model that she is.

 

 

''Aigoo, it's just sad we weren't able to meet the other judge. I couldn't reveal his identity though for he asked us to keep it until today. I wonder what's happened to him.'' the producer said.

 

 

''Maybe something just came up.'' Dara said with a smile.

 

 

''But I’m sorry… We need to get going, sir. It's getting late...'' CL said as she reached out for a handshake. ''We're very excited and we just hope we'll be effective judges.''

 

 

 

''It's nice to be finally working with---''

 

 

 

 

[BLAG!]


 

 

''MIANHE! MIANHE!!! I'M SORRY FOR BEING LATE!!!'' a man came panting as the door flung open.

 

''I am… really… sorry… for this matter!'' he said in between his breath.

 

 

Dara let out a gasp and CL tilted his head upon seeing someone familiar.

 

 

 

''OPPA???''
