3 weeks later...

"So what are you planning to do right now?" Bom asked Chaerin, she invited her to have a drink with her that night though she's suppose to be with Dara today because

the latter prepare a dinner for her

"I don't know Unnie, i really don't know.." she answered, she play with her food on the plate

"Why don't you talk to Dara and aske her everything? Let her explain her side.." Chaerin just look at Bom

"She kept secrets to me, she didn't tell me everything that's happening with her these past few weeks, unnie. I don't know what will i feel or how am i suppose to

react on this one.."

"Maybe she has a valid reason why, Chaerin.."

"Yeah, she maybe have a valid reason but i already gave her enough time to tell me everything but she didn't.."

"What do you mean?"

Three weeks ago..

"Hey sleepy head wake up! Dad will be waiting for you in the office" Jiyong told his little sister Chaerin

"You need to be there on time, our clients have some proposal to you regarding the new supermarket they want to build in Osaka.." Jiyong added, he look at her when she

didn't said a word

"Chae?" he said, he walks toward her bed and saw that Chaerin is already awake but staring to her blanket

"Hey sis.." Jiyong said again then Chaerin look at him

"Huh?" she asked, Jiyong smiled

"What is it this time?" he asked and tap his sister's shoulder

"What do you mean?" Chaerin asked

"You always look like that whenever you and Dara has an argument.."

"Look? What look?"

"Like your mind is floating somewhere else.."

"Oh, it's nothing Oppa. Just a little misunderstanding.."

"Okay i got it if you don't want to tell me but now you need to get up and finish your work if you want to spend the rest of the day with Dara.."

"I will Oppa, thanks.."

"No worries.." Jiyong said, he got up and was about to open the door when Chaerin said something that make Jiyong stop

"What would you do if Samantha-Unnie hide something important from you and you only found out thru a concerned friend.." Jiyong turn around and look at her, he saw

Chaerin playing with her blankets

"What's with the question?" he asked

"Nothing Oppa, i'm just asking.." Chaerin answered but Jiyong sensed something is wrong but decided to answer her question

"I will give her time to tell me everything then after that, i'll ask what's her reason for not telling me.." Jiyong answered

"Wil you forgive her?"

"Yes i will though i'll be hurt a bit but i love her and i do trust her a lot.." Chaerin smiled at him

"Thanks Oppa.." she said and run towards the bathroom

Later that Afternoon...

Chaerin called Dara up and invited her to spend the rest of the day with her, the latter agreed because she misses Chaerin so much. They both decided to meet at the

park near the Lee's Supermarket. Chaerin is the first one to arrive there and find a pefect spot for them and in a matter of minutes she saw Dara waving at her while

running towards where she is seating

"Sorry baby.." Dara said to Chaerin, she sits beside her and place a kiss on her cheeks, Chaerin on the other hand felt some butterflies inside her stomach and smile

widely

"It's okay, i know you are busy with your work right now.." Chaerin said and hand her a bottle of water

"Yeah but hey i bought something for you.." Dara said, she hand over the paper bag she's holding and Chaerin grab it excitedly, she peek inside but she knows what's

inside when she smells it

"Corn dogs?" Chaerin asked her, Dara nodded her head while smiling

"You are such a sweet girlfriend, a corn dog for me, hmmm yummy!" Chaerin said, Dara laugh at her

"Is that a compliment or not?"

"It depends on how does i sound for you.."

"Kekeke! Bad baby!" Chaerin stand up and get the basket she brought with her

"What is that?" Dara asked

"A basket"

"I know it's a basket silly but what for?" instead of answering Dara, Chaerin winked at her and starts to unload the food she made before she head towards the park

"I made some sandwhiches, fries and veggie salad for us.." she said while unloading the food she brought

"You made all of these?" Dara asked, Chaerin nodded her head

"You always cook food for us and made me sandwhiches if i missed my lunch now it's my turn my princess..."

"Oh baby you don't have to and you don't need to.."

"I know but this time, i want to take care of you.." Dara look at Chaerin

"Thank you Baby.." she said, Chaerin hug her

"Now it's time to eat! You first my baby.." Chaerin said and put some food on Dara's plate

The two chit chat while they are eating, telling what happened with their work these past few days, after they finished eating, Chaerin gave Dara a bottle of beer

"It's been a while since we did this.." Dara said, she's sitting in between Chaerin's lap while the latter in leaning on the tree

"Yes and i miss this a lot. I miss this quality time with you.." Chaerin said, Dara look at her but she notice that there's a sadness in Chaerin's eyes and the way she

look at her that something is bothering her but she ignore it

"Sorry if i'm too busy with my work, you know that i need to work hard in order to earn money for the three of us.."

"I know baby and i'm not mad with you. I understand that Minji and Mi-na are still studying but why don't you accept the job Dad is offering to you.." Chaerin said,

Dara roam her eyes around the park

"Maybe next time baby, for now i'm contented with the work i have.." Dara answered, she felt Chaerin sigh, silence pass by the two lovers when Chaerin spokes

"Do you need any help regarding finances?"

"Chaerin, we've already talked about this a million times.." Dara answered

"I know, i know but Dara--" Dara cut her off

"I'm earning enough for me and my sisters, Chaerin. I don't need your money!" Dara said, she stand up and look at Chaerin

"I'm sorry baby.." Chaerin said, Dara sigh, she knows that Chaerin is just concerned about them and she felt guilty the way she acted, she sits in front of her

"I'm sorry too baby but like what i've said, me and my sisters are fine, you don't need to worry about us.." Dara explained, Cherin hug her again but this time it's

tighter than the first one

"It's okay baby, i understand but please promise me one thing.." Chaerin said, Dara broke the hug

"Sure, what is it?" she asked

"tell me anything you need to tell me, if you had any problems or something is bothering you, you know that i'm always here for you right?" Chaerin said, Dara nodded

her head, she wanted to cry but she fight it back

'I promise Chaerin and i'm sorry' she whispered

******

"How did you know about Mi-na's condition?" Bom asked her

"I saw them and Minji enter the hospital, i follow them behind then after they left i asked the doctor which one of them is sick or being checked-up.." she explained

"No matter what it is Chae, all you need to do now is talk to her and let her explain everything.."

"I don't know Unnie, i always brought up Mi-na to her whenever we talked, give her signs that i knew everything but she seems to ignore me.."

"Chaerin.."

"Why did she chose Minho instead of me huh Unnie? Why?"

"Chaerin, Dara is the only one who can answer that.."

"Yes she is and this is the right time for me to know everything.."
