*Ding Dong*

Omo! Jiyong’s here already?! Ottokae! I’m not yet ready for work!

Dara quickly put her Louboutins on, holding the other stiletto with one hand and grabbing her coat with the other. She’s skipping towards her room, to get her files for today’s board meeting.

Jiyong and Dara had an agreement that he will pick her up every morning so that they can go to work together.

He didn’t realize that he made a grave mistake. Dara and Bom used to come to work together but since Dara is known to be always late, Bom gave up on her after being late herself whenever they go to work together.

*Ding Dong*

“I’m coming, I’m coming!” Dara screamed in panic. Sheesh, you don’t have to the doorbell button.

Dara quickly run towards the door and opened it.

“Morning Babe” Jiyong said, his gummy smile showing while he slowly looked up and run his fingers through his hair. He smells so fresh and his manly cologne almost made her lose consciousness.

Dara blushed at his term of endearment for her.

OMG! He’s so handsome! I haven’t eaten breakfast but I’m already full. He looks yummy!

“M-morning.” Dara replied.

Jiyong’s eyebrows creased at Dara’s reply.

“Just ‘morning? That’s it? No ‘Babe’?” Jiyong ‘s left hand is holding the door open, trapping Dara. His face is so close to hers and she can clearly see his cute pout and she couldn’t help but feel giddy at his childish complaint.

“Okay…okay. Good morning Babe.” Dara said. She quickly stood on her tiptoes and gave him a quick peck on the lips. She pushed him out of her door and quickly shut the door.

“Just wait for me in your car. I’m almost done getting ready!”

“Aww, that’s not fair Babe! I want a replay. Open the door.” Jiyong said while laughing.

“Just wait for me in the car!” He heard Dara shouted from inside.

“Aww! I want another kiss Babe!” Jiyong’s smile turned to a nervous laugh when Dara’s front door suddenly opened again, revealing a panda-like Seungri.

“Hyung. Please. Just go away and let me sleep in peace. It’s too early in the morning and you’re already oozing with sweetness, it makes me want to barf. “Seungri said, his panda eyes are still droopy from sleepiness.

Jiyong couldn’t do anything but just wait by his car. It’s now ten minutes to 8:30 AM and he’s still waiting for Dara to come out of her condo. He’s leaning on his white Lamborghini with his hands in his pockets and checking the time from his Rolex.

After what seems to be like an eternity, they are now on their way to the office and Dara is restless on her seat.

“Can you drive a little faster, Jiyong? We’re gonna be late.” Dara impatiently said.

“Well babe, if you try to wake up early next time, we won’t be late.”

“Excuuuse me, Babe. If you do not drive like a Halmeoni, we wouldn’t be late, neh?” Dara replied with a fake smile.

“Hal-Halmeoni?!” Jiyong replied, looking twice at Dara with disbelief.

“Exactly as I said Babe, you drive like a Halmeoni.” Dara sweetly replied with sarcasm.

Jiyong’s grip on his steering wheel tightened. The reason why he’s driving in a safe speed right now is because Dara’s with him, his most precious cargo.

This woman! Huh! Halmeoni? He thought.

He decided to just stay silent and not let her bully him into driving faster than he should. They soon arrived safely at the SMYG Building and the employees couldn’t help but look at the newly arrived love team.

“Finally!” Dara teasingly said, rolling her eyes upward. She couldn’t believe how slow Jiyong drives.

Jiyong quickly got out of his car and opened the door for her. Once she got out, she stood frozen on her spot when she saw Seung Hyun looking at her and Jiyong.

“Good morning Dara…Jiyong. Looks like you two are late. Ten points from Gryffindor!” Seung Hyun jokingly said, hiding the pain in his heart.

“Oppa! You’re back! How’s China? Did they accept our proposal for EXO’s concert?” Dara excitedly asked. She was the one who prepared the proposal before Seung Hyun left for China and she couldn’t wait to find out if it went well.

“Yeah they did. They loved the idea. I’ll see you guys later!” Seung Hyun started walking towards the main lobby to catch up with the company’s trainer, Hwangssabu.

Dara waved goodbye at Seung Hyun and turned around to see Jiyong.

“So what am I, chopped liver?” Jiyong pouted and slowly walked with Dara beside him.

“Aww, Jiyongie is jealous. “ Dara kept on teasing Jiyong until they reached the elevator.

“Tease me all you want, Babe. You’re lucky were not alone.” Jiyong’s gaze is fixed at Dara while he pressed the button for the top floor.

When they’re about to get off the elevator, Jiyong grabbed Dara’s hand and pulled her back in the elevator while the other passengers got off first and quickly gave her a peck on her cheek.

“See you around, Babe.” Jiyong smiled from ear to ear, leaving a giggling Dara in the elevator.

She quickly got out of the elevator to catch up with him. They’re now walking side by side when all of a sudden, Dara gave his a quick squeeze and said, “I’ll see you around, Kiss Bandit!”

She quickly sashayed inside her office and shut the door.

“Hey! Babe! That’s not fair. Open the door.” Jiyong said while knocking on her door.

“Go away! Kekeke!”

“The Kiss Bandit is surrendering to the Sheriff! Open the door! I surrender!” Jiyong scandalously wiggled his in front of her office.

“Oh my God! Shut up!” Dara opened her door to make him stop.

Jiyong gave her a quick kiss on the lips.

“See you later, Sheriff!”

Jiyong’s getting ready for Dara’s presentation at the board meeting in half an hour. He plans to stop by her office so that they can go together.

“Excuse me, Jiyong Oppa.” Sulli said, hol
