EXTRACT FROM CHAPTER 11: BATTLE OF THE DUMBS

Always a possessive DRAGON huh…OWNING my SSANTOKKI without even telling her… Don’t be too full of yourself little fire blower… you might lose in this battle...

“Then why did you accepted it?” she asked eyeing the now blushing SSANTOKKI

“I just feel like it” DARA said still flustered…

I see… both are playing the dumb game….their pride and confusion might hurt them at the end…

-----------------------------------------------

In JAPAN….

GD and YB are busily discussing the theme of YB’s album when SEUNGRI joined them at the living room while talking to someone on his phone… They did not even bother to look up to the rat until…

“Yes DARA NOOOONA I’ve already eaten my dinner” the pesky rat says while giggling his heart out..

DARA NOOOOONA?  GD’s ears perked up and noted the sweet voice of their irritating MAKNAE while YB’s head turned sharply to the rat’s direction

Im so loving their distorted faces…  the rat enjoys himself and to add to his HYUNGS annoyance he put DALONG on loudspeaker…

“That’s good my LITTLE SEUNGHYUN… kekekkeke don’t forget your health ARASSO?” DARA said to the other line with her OH SWEET VOICE

GD stand up on his position while pointing an accusing finger to the rat while YB just gawk at SEUNGRI’s face crazily

“Of course DARA NOOOONA… I’ll be sure to take care just for you… you know I love you right?” SEUNGRI said while looking at their fuming leader while smirking

“Did you just smirk at me RAT?” GD yelled not minding the equally angry YB by his side

“OMO baby SEUNGHYUN who’s yelling?” DARA said on the other line worrying if he got scolded by someone

“No one NOOONA, just a stray CAT making weird sounds.” he answered while chuckling

When he sees both of his HYUNG was flared up beyond words he stand up and walk to his room…

“OH YES MY LOVELY NOOONA NOONA… I miss you too… mwah!!!” he said out loud while entering his room and locked it from the inside and ended his call. He can hear the loud screams of GD outside while being calmed down by YB.

“YOU pesky RAT!!!!! Im gonna slice you to pieces!!! Do you hear me huh? I’ll bury you alive!!!! You hear that alive as in alive that your generations will be cut off from this whole earth!!!!” GD shouted while being hugged by the laughing YB to prevent him from pounding on SEUNGRI’s door.

SEUNGRI can’t stop himself from rolling on the floor hearing his FAVORITE HYUNG’s angry voice and he bets that JIYONG is on the verge of crying his eyes out just hearing him talking to his APPLE of the EYES just a while ago, and not just talking but sweetly talking to his FAVORITE NOONA.

YB was calming GD and he cannot also composed himself from laughing hard at his bestfriend, it’s not that he don’t mind those exchange of sweet words from DARA and SEUNGRI but he knows that their MAKNAE is just pissed off from GD because their leader choses to release his album first than their MAKNAE album. HAHAHAHAHA.

“YOU FIND IT FUNNY RAT!!!!!! Im gonna burn you alive!! What’s with that disgusting tone NOOOONA NOOOOONA!!! Are you ingly kidding me YOU RAT!!!!” GD said but still he hears the muffle sounds of laughter from the RAT until his brilliant mind taught of something

Take that HYUNG!!!! For choosing YB HYUNG before me!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!He said to himself while clutching his now, aching stomach from laughing out loud. But his laughter died down when he hears GD’s eerily calm voice.

“OH you are testing my patience eh? LEE SEUNGRI?let’s see…” GD said with his calm tone outside the door that brings shivers to YB and SEUNGRI’s spine

“LISTEN RAT, YOU KNOW WHAT I JUST DECIDED… OH YEAH DECIDED!!! just now as in NOW!!! That I will discard all those compositions that I have made for your album! I just needed to compose another one to complete it… but I GUESS YOU and YES YOU!!! UNGRATEFUL RAT DO NOT DESERVE ANY OF IT!!!! I’ll just give it to TOP HYUNG YOU MORON!!!!” GD said to the other side of the door and slowly walks along with the amazed YB to the living room while smirking

1…. 2….. 3….. SEUNGRI’s door opened with a blastI WON RAT!!!!

SEUNGRI run to his retreating back and hug his left leg while crying…

“HYUNG DON’T DO THIS TO ME… I PROMISE I WILL BEHAVE FOREVER… YOU ARE MY FAVORITE HYUNG!!! PLEASE PLEASE” SEUNGRI said while batting his eyelashes much to GD’s annoyance

GD squirmed to his grasp and continues to walk and seat at the sofa... “I can’t hear you RAT”

SEUNGRI kneeled in front of GD while clasping his hands… GD just smirked to this and covers his face with the compositions that he is writing earlier. He felt SEUNGRI shoving his cell phone to his oh so handsome face…

“Read this HYUNG…. I’m not ungrateful!!! See see!!!! Im texting DARA NOOONA about you… please change your mind…” the rat said

GD got the phone from his grasp and read the contents of the message in his sent items:

Yes NOONA… JIYONG HYUNG is my favourite HYUNG among them, he is kind hearted and always take care of me…

GD smiled at this but followed it with a smirk as his eyes glare to the MAKNAE

“Ok I believe you now…It is good that you know who is your master! ” GD said, much to the MAKNAE’s relief.

SEUNGRI still in his kneeling position bows his head with his arms upside and continue his bowing like a muslim when praying, much to YB’s shame.

“YES HYUNG… I mean MASTER…” then he faces GD

“So you’re not going discard your compositions for my album right HYUNG? Please forgive your humble servant for his mistake” he said while batting his eyelashes much to YB’s disgust

“On the second thought… yeah… I’ll stick to you since your voice is more suited for those compositions… but!!! If this unforgivable mistake will be committed again, I won’t be that forgiving ARASSO?” GD said with a serious face

“ARASSO, ARASSO HYUNG” SEUNGRI said then jumps to hugging the latter while GD is patting his head like a good pet.

YB just stood there gawking at them unbelievingly as if they are the most disgusting creature his eyes ever laid on.

------------------------------------------

AT 2NE1’s DORM….

DARA was now smiling after talking to SEUNGRI. The MAKNAE just always brings smile to her face with every simple thing he is saying. She was also thankful that the MAKNAE updates her of their activities in JAPAN. She really misses them and it only adds to her sadness when she cannot hear from them. Those guys never fail making her smile though her girls are also doing the same way to her but right now, those were not enough. After reading all those bashing comments directed to her, She was really down earlier until SEUNGRI texted her that he got to watch their performance and tell her that she have done great. She smiles at this. She wanted to open it up to the girls but her heart chooses not to burden them of her insecurities she was having at the moment…

Flashback…

She was browsing the net watching their live performances on YOUTUBE… she was happy that many people view their performances and so she was tempted to browse down and read the comments… She was beyond happy beyond words that they were satisfied with their performances but as she browse down her eyes started to sting…

smlover: That DARA should not be in 2NE1!!! She’s a kissing and hugging MY PRECIOUS BIGBANG!!!

Kristinamay17: hey fugly smlover you are not a true blackjack and a VIP!!! so stop bashing DARAUNNIE she deserves to be there… honestly, you are just jealous!!!!

fckYGFAMILY: smlover is right DARA must be in a circus show!!! She is really crazy…!!! HELLA with an innocent face!!! You blackjacks are tone deaf for praising his weak voice!!! EWW!

GGFAN: Yeah!!!! She’s just there because of her innocent face, but she has no talent!!! Her voice is weak!!!! It’s disgusting to hear!!!! Her face is not even comparable to YOONA!!

DARA’s tears started to flow to her smooth cheeks… she did not know that she was crying until she hears the faint sound of her muffled sobs that she was unconsciously holding up earlier.. She brought her hands to to silence her sobs but continue to scroll down to read the comments with her shaking fingers…

WALKOUTQUENN:STOP BASHING DARA UNNIE!!! You are the ones who are deaf, her voice is better than ¾ of your girls in GG!!!! And hello her face is like a GODDESS, stop watching 2ne1 vids if you will just bash one of the members!!!!

GGFAN: OMG!!!! You are defending that DARA who’s face is from “SAY THANK YOU DOCTOR”!!! I can’t believe it and hey her dancing skills must not be shown, it's GROSS!!!!! 

CUPIDZANGEL:STOP AROUNG YOU BLEACHES!!!! Our precious four girls are deserving!!! Each one of them!!! And you GGFAN why dont you show your dancing skills and that ugly face of yours, I’m sure you are a shame to humankind!!! GTFO of here!!!!

KATHYPUFI:STFU!!!! You are ruining our mood in watching our girls, you are just jealous that are girls won to your idols FACE!!!! GAWD I don’t even know how those groups sing their songs…do you call that talent? if that's talent then every human has a great voice!!! now if you don’t want me to post my litany about your IDOL GROUPS who are not even deserving to be compared to our girls!!!

fckYGFAMILY:Just admit it DARAWHORES!!! Your bias is just a pretty face, she has no skills while BOM can sing very well, MINJI can DANCE while CL can RAP while DARA just stands there!!!

DARA can’t take it anymore she cannot believe that there are people who are so mean and judgemental, and so she cried hard. She knows she must not take it to heart just what CL is always telling her “DARA UNNIE… criticisms are fine they will make you stronger…”  She believes her every word but you cannot blame her if she doubts herself right now because admittedly out of the four of them, she knows very well that she is lacking. She just wanted to accept it but the added insults and false accusations were crashing her heart into pieces even she knows it was not true about herself.They are even bashing their fans.She just wishes that her family won’t be able to read those uncalled criticisms, especially her mother. She does not want to break her heart. She reads again even if she knows a third blow would crash the living hope in her…

BIGBANG2NE1DBSK:BLACKJACKS stop answering to their nasty comments… they are not even worth an ounce of your time… let us enjoy the vids. DARA UNNIE will not be happy if she knows we are even arguing with them

ZETH06:THIS FUGLY CREATURES are not even worth of our DARA’s attention. DARA is great on her own she can dance, rap and sing!!! She can even act!!! Hello she did not have any plastic surgery!!! 2NE1 is not complete if she is not there… YG even said that yes she lacks talent out of the four but her hard work is paying off.

She smiles at this but her tears won’t budge. It was just so painful… Yes, she was thankful that there are people who believe in her but she cannot supress the guilt eating her up by just being happy that they are fighting because of her… She was so lost until she hears her phone beeping. It was from SEUNGRI…

“DARA NOONA!!!! I’ve got to watch your performance through the net!!!! YOU DID GREAT!!!”

That simple text makes her smile and so she decided to turn off her laptop. At least they believe in me. She called SEUNGRI.

“YES NOOOOONA? Why did you call you miss me already?”

She heartily laughs… “AIGOO BABY SEUNGHYUN… yes NOONA miss you already. Thank you for watching our performance… You guys really take care of us”

“OF COURSE NOONA…. We are very proud of you girls!!!!”

“Do you think I deserve to be part of them… I mean you know…. Hehehe”

SEUNGRI felt there was something wrong in her voice, it felt like she was about to cry… He thinks she had already seen those y comments on their vids, He knows for a fact that DARA is fond of watching and monitoring their videos in the net. Actually, it was his mistake to give her advices in monitoring their performances and the fans reaction to it. He missed the fact that she was vulnerable on those haters comments, that role must be for his BOM NOONA to handle. But, He was so excited on coaching her in different aspects that he forgot that his DARA NOONA might crash down. And boy he was so right…

“DARA NOONA had you watched those videos… I mean you know… ammm?” he said stuttering

“What videos? Our performances in the net? ANIYO SEUNGRI-YAH I don’t have time for that…” she lied trying to not make the other guy worry for her and add to his burden

He wanted to believe her but her cracking voice said otherwise, but he does not push it more, he knows that his NOONA does not want to burden him anymore

“DARA NOONA you are PART OF 2NE1!!! Don’t ever doubt yourself in that!!! Yes CHAE-CAT raps, MINJI went wild and BOM NOONA’s voice roared but NOONA your presence, your voice, your face and your dance make it completes… The four of you combined brought the stage down… You are not part of SEUNGRI academy if you’re not the best…”

She chuckles…. “Thank you SEUNGRI-AH… had you taken your food already?”

“Yes DARA NOOOONA I’ve already eaten my dinner”

“That’s good my LITTLE SEUNGHYUN… kekekkeke don’t forget your health ARASSO?”

“Of course DARA NOOOONA… I’ll be sure to take care just for you… you know I love you right?”

She chuckles… She was about to reply when she heard someone shouting from the other line…

“OMO baby SEUNGHYUN who’s yelling?” DARA said on the other line worrying if he got scolded by someone

“No one NOOONA, just a stray CAT making weird sounds.” he answered while chuckling

“Are you sure? Ok… Please tell them I miss them too… and YES I love you too and I miss you”

“OH YES MY LOVELY NOOONA NOONA… I miss you too… mwah!!!”

End of flashback

She then bade goodbye. She was back to her smiling face and carefree personality. She runs to BOM’s ROOM much to the latter’s surprise face…

“YAH BOMMIE!!!! You are hiding while eating corn again!!!!” she said while pointing ate her corn while laughing on her best friend’s flabbergasted face

BOMMIE shows her AEGYO by giving her a tearful puppy eyes while batting her eyelashes, she know, she can’t resist it…

“TOKKI please don’t tell YG SAJANGNIM… please… I’ll give you three kernels”

KYOPTA.DARA said to herself but held her hands to his chest with gasping effect…

“ONLY THREE KERNELS!!!! HOW SELFISH CAN YOU GET BOMMIE-AH!!!!” she said while keeping herself not to laugh out loud upon seeing the now teary eyed BOM…hahahahahaha!!! This is my revenge to you for always bullying me kekekekkeekek!!!

“TOKKI I’ll just buy you fresh carrots and dried mangoes!!! Please, but not my CORN” BOMMIE said with her Oh so much pleading voice. She knows DARA cannot resist from her offer…

DARA clasped her hand in delight and hugged her best friend

“Ok that’s a promise NEH!!!!”

The MAKNAE line heard their babblings from the living room and so they scampered to BOM’s room. Seeing their UNNIES hugging, they cannot let themselves be outcast and so they jumped to the bed and join to the hug…

“BOM UNNIE buy me crepe or I’ll tell on you!!!” MINJI said while smiling

“BUY me my fave accessory or I’ll do the same!” CL said with a sly smile

BOMMIE just looks at her friends with wide eyes… She was the bully but now they are ganging up on her….

“What a great friends I have!!!” she said totally defeated while the three girls just laugh their hearts out while looking at her shocked face…

DARA was beyond happy feeling that SEUNGRI was right at the first place. She was for YG and YG chooses her because she deserves it. This girls and her YG family are worth it. Those hateful comments, she can bear it because of them. She heard her phone ringing and so she excuses herself first and got to her room.

“YEOBOSEYO? Ji?”she answered while smiling

“HI D!!!! I miss you”

“Oh…” How warming to hear his voice now. She thought. “I miss you too hehe...”

“You are improving every day D… I’m so proud of you”

She clasps her chest… she felt it constrict but she managed to answer him

“THANKS JI… IT MEANS A LOT” holding back the tears that were attempting to burst again

“If you feel down or anything about your craft… always remember what YG said…”

SHE MAKES THE IMPOSSIBLE, POSSIBLE

The tears that she keeps from falling are now rolling down on her cheeks. His words are warm and it deeply digs unto her heart. She keeps clasping her chest, trying to subside the fast beating of her heart…Afraid that he would hear it.

“YES I WILL” she said unable to bring herself the words she wanted to say

He knows what she is feeling right now. The rat told him earlier after YB gone out of the room about what really happened. He was angered by it. He was worrying for her, He’s not there… He can’t protect her from those malicious comments about her. He was about to fly back to KOREA if not for SEUNGRI’s convincing that he should stay because YG is here with them and he would just add to DARA’s problem if YG will know that he fly back there to comfort her. He felt weak… He doubts himself if he can really protect the fragile girl from the world. How he wanted to see those warm smiles of her that enlightens his being. He decided that he cannot be there for her always but he can do things for her even just like this simple call to console her of this corrupted world.

“DARA…. SAN… DA…. RA… you are special, be sure to know that…”He told her with full sincerity while battling with the pain in his heart hearing her lonely voice…

DARA cannot contain it anymore she cried and covered her lips with her free hand to muffle the sounds of her outburst. His words were comforting to her that she was able to cry out everything she was keeping to herself… Every pain, every hurt, every fears and every doubt she was struggling to fight. She knew right then and there that she was not alone. The world might give up but she knows this man would be there for her. She does not know where that assurance came from but it was funny that his voice can make her feel safe just like that. She’s crazy, she knows it.

“D… I’m here… I trust you SOY SAUCE… I believe in you”he said unable to hide the shaking of his voice for this girl’s loneliness reaches out to him. It’s unexplainable that even they are oceans apart he felt her sadness, and it eats him up inside. He hears all her muffled sobs and every sharp intake of breathe that she take put an unbearable pain in his heart. He only hopes that through this he lifts her burden or if it’s not possible… Let him have even a piece of it…He was sure right there and then that even this whole damn world gives up, he would not leave her side.

“Thank you JI… I’m okay now… “She smiles while staring at the ring on her hand. Her smile was felt on the other line. The guy knows she’s really back on her feet.

He smiles as they bade goodbye to each other. When they ended the call, He kissed his ring on his hand… “I LOVE YOU D…”

 DARA was thankful to JI… She was happy now. She felt that all the insecurities and frustrations she had felt earlier were already gone. It was lifted up on her. And yes, just by those simple words from JIYONG she felt stronger. Her smile reaches to her heart and she knows everything will be okay.

IN YB AND DAESUNG’s DORM

“So are you sure that you are ready to release your album once we get back?” YG said

“YES… I’m sure of it… SAJANGGNIM I believe in your insights and when you told me that it’s time then it’s time” YB said to YG looking at the older man seriously

“That’s great…” YG said admiring the younger guy in front of him

“But, I have a request…”

YG eyed the younger guy asking him to go on

“I want DARA to be in my MV for I need a girl” He said

YG smiled inside. He knows that when YB presented all the composed songs for his album, he was sure that the INAG song that was composed by GD and him will be for DARA.

“Why DARA”

“Simply because she’s the girl that I need” YB blurted out carelessly, that he himself was unable to hide the horror in his face but unusually for him, YG was looking straight at him without marks of surprise or shock.

“I..I mean… you know… She’s the girl that I need for the MV… Since…”

“She suits the girl’s description in your song right?” YG cut him off and finishes his sentence for him much to the younger guy’s relief.

“YEAH RIGHT” he said now wiping the beads of sweat that form on his forehead

“Nervous face never suits you YOUNGBAE-AH, this would be easier if you have showed me your chinky-eye smile” YG told him before he gets out leaving YB dumbfounded.

YG closes the door with a smile on his face as he dials a number.

“YEOBOSEYO SAJANGNIM!!!” a cheerful voice greeted her

“DARA-AH from now on triple your time on the gym… ARASSO?” he said while smiling

“OMO… OH OKAY SAJANGGNIM, I WILL” the girl immediately said and then he hanged up

TSK THIS GUYS, THEY THINK I DON’T KNOW WHAT’s GOING ON BETWEEN THEM… DO I LOOK THAT INNOCENT? HMMMM… KEKEKEKKEEKE. YG thinks to himself. OH good, now I’m crazy praising myself and talking to myself… Those weirdos influence my OH SO INNOCENT BRAIN…
