Girlfriend for hire

7:30 am

"Okay, breath in, breath out.." Chaerin said to herself while looking at the mirror, she grab her phone on the table to see if Dara replied from her text but there's none

"Why is she mad?! She's the one who's flirting with a guy!" she said and throw her phone on the bed, she walks towards the door and went walking to Jiyong and Samantha's room, she softly knock on the door and Samantha opens it

"Hey morning kiddo!" Samantha said and step back a little to make way for Chaerin

"Morning Unnie.." Chaerin and went in

"Why are you still here?" Samantha asked her

"Huh?"

"I thought you're going to pick up Dara and her sisters?"

"Ah oh yes, yes, i'm on my way out but i, ahm decided to come here first.."

"Okay kiddo, is there any problem?" Chaerin look at her then to her hands, she wanted to talk to Sam about Dara

"Chaerin.." she sigh

"Nothing Unnie, uhm i'll get going, tell Oppa that i'll meet him and Seungri-Oppa at the store.." she said and walk awawy, Samantha follow her with her eyes

"I wonder what's wrong" she whispered

 

 

Park's Apartment

"So Chaerin-Unnie won't pick us up today?" Minji asked her sister while they are heading downstairs, Dara shook her head

"S-she's not uhm feeling good today.." she lied, Mi-na shrug her shoulder, she like Chaerin for her Unnie, she open the gate of the building and she is surprised to see Chaerin there standing at the front looking down on the floor

"Unnie?!" Mi-na said, she quickly run to her and give her a hug

"Hey kiddo.." she said and hug her back

"I thought you're sick today, Unnie?" Minji asked her, Chaerin look at her then to Dara who's face is serious

"Uhm yeah buut i promise you two that i'll drive you to your school right?" she asnwered

"Yes Unnie but if you don't feel well, it's okay if you don't drive us, we can take the cab.." Mi-na said smiling at her

"She's right Unnie, your health is more important.." Minji added

"I'm fine guys, so let's go?" she asked, Minji look at Mi-na then to her

"Okay Unnie.." she walks towards the two when Dara speak

"Minji you sit in front, i'll sit with Mi-na at the back.." Dara said, Chaerin look at her

*Okay she's mad!* she told to herself, Dara pulled Mi-na quickly inside the car and closed the door

"Are you and Unnie fighting?" Mi-na asked, Dara just shook her head in respond

 

No one said a word among the 4, Minji keeps on looking at Chaerin who always let out a deep sigh

*What's wrong with these two?* she asked herself, Mi-na on the other hand is looking at her Dara-Unnie, she's looking outside the window like she's in deep thinking. Chaerin stops the car at the front gate of the building

"Thanks Unnie for the ride but please have some rest okay.." Minji said to her

"Yeah i will, you two study hard okay.." she answered, the two smiled at her sweetly and wave their hands, Dara went to sit in the front but she keeps her eyes looking outside

"Can we talk?" Chaerin said, she's driving slow so she and Dara can have time

"There's nothing to talk about Chaerin.." Dara answered not looking at her, Chaerin stop the car at the side of the road, Dara look at her

"I'll be late for work Ms. Lee.."

"Damn Dara, why are you treating me this way?!" she yelled

"Treat you this way?? I'm not doing anything to you!" she answered

"I said i'm sorry right, i even texted you last night!"

"So? That's it? because you say sorry i'll just forgive you??"

"Yes!"

"You're so impossible!" Dara open her door and went out of the car, Chaerin chase after her

"Where are you going?! Were not done talking!" she yelled again, Dara stops and turn around

"How do many times do i have to tell you not to yell!" she yelled back and walk away again but Chaerin grab her hand

"Why are you so mad at me?  I didn't do anything to you!"

"You didn't? Oh yeah you said to me yesterday that i was flirting with Taeyang!"

"But you did! You hugged him and your talking to him so close!" Dara didn't respond

"Okay sorry if i flirt with that girl at the fast food chain but it's nothing"

"Yeah right, i have to go now Chaerin.." she pulled her hand and turn around then he saw Taeyang waving at her

"Hey Dara!" he said smiling, he saw Chaerin standing behind her back

"Oh, Good Morning Chaerin-ssi.." he said, Chaerin just gave him a faint smile

"What are you doing here?" Dara asked him

"I bought something at that store, how about you two?"

"She drove Minji and Mi-na off to school and i'm on my way to work.." she said

"Do you need a ride?" Taeyang said, Dara shook her head

"No Tae, it's okay.."

"Okay Dara, Take Care Chaerin-ssi.." he said and bowed his head before walking way

"He's really following you eh?" she heard Chaerin said but she keeps on walking away, she don't want to argue with her anymore

 

 

At the Supermarket..

Dara's co-workers noticed that she's been quiet and not even greeting everyone like she always do whenever she arrives at the store, she went straight to the locker room and when she got out, she starts refilling the shelf, Bom noticed it too, she was about to talk to Dara when she saw Chaerin, Jiyong and Seungri

"Good Morning Noona!" Seungri greeted her

"Morning you guys! Why are you here?" she said

"We will invite Dara later for dinner, our parents and grandparents wants to meet her.." Jiyong answered

"Wow! Really?"

"Yes Noona! We're so excited for tonight but.." Seungri said

"But what?"

"Our little sister here pissed Dara yesterday and sad to say today too.." Jiyong said, Bom look at her, Chaerin's rock her body back and fort while looking down on the floor

"What did you do this time?" she asked her and cross her arms on her chest

"Nothing.." Chaerin answered not looking at her

"She flirted with a girl while she's on a date with Dara.." Seungri said, Chaerin throw him a deadly glare

"Chaerin.." Bom said again

"I'm sorry but that means nothing to me. I didn't flirt like i touch that girl or something, i'm just looking at them and it's my fault i didn't introduce her to Bev, maybe she thinks i'm flirting with her too.."

"Beverly? Your Bestfriend?" Bom ask, Chaerin nod her head

"They saw her at the mall and our little sister forgot to introduce Dara to Bev forgetting also that she's with her that time.." Jiyong said, smiling

"Oh Chaerin, i know this is just pretending to you but you should never do that to Dara again.." Chaerin didn't respond

"Though you're paying her, don't you think it's a bit fair to treat her right? Everyone knows that you are really courting her, i mean serious with her.."

"But i do.." Chaerin whispered

"What?" Jiyong asked

"Nothing. I admit it's my fault but she's flirting with a guy too! She even hugged him you know!" she said, Jiyong look at Seungri

"A guy?" Seungir asked her

"Yeah! His name is Taeyang and we saw him again earlier today.." chaerin said, they almost laugh at her because they can see that she's jealous

"Taeyang? The guy with a chinky eyes and mohawk hair?" Bom asked

"You know here Unnie?" Chaerin asked her back, Bom nod her head

"He's Dara's cousin.." Bom answered and walk

"Cousin?!!!!" Chaerin yelled which made Jiyong and Seungri laugh

 

 

They went to look for Dara, they found her talking to her friend Yoshi

"Good morning ladies.." Jiyong said, the two look at them, Dara smiled when she saw Jiyong

"Good Morning, Jiyong-ssi, Seungri-ssi, Chaerin-ssi.." Yoshi answered and bowed her head

"Dara-ssi, can we talk to you for a sec?" Seungri asked her, Dara look at Yoshi and smiled at her before she walks away

"Sure Seungri-ssi.." Dara answered

"Just call us Oppa from now on.." Jiyong said, Dara smiled at him again not even looking at Chaerin who's been looking at her intently because she keeps on smiling at Jiyong

*Yah!! I'm right here too Dara!* she screamed in her mind, they walk towards Bom office

"Hey Dara.." Bom said

"Hey Unnie.." she answered, the 3 siblings is trailing behind her, as soon as Chaerin closed the door and turn around she saw Jiyong puts her arms on Dara's shoulder

"So Dara, the reason we want to talk to you is because, our parents and granparents wants to invite you for a dinner tonight.." Jiyog said, Dara's eyes got widen

"T-tonight?" she asked, Jiyong nod his head

"Yes Dara, we came here to invite you because our sister did something to you yesterday and she can't inivite you 'cause she's shy.." Seungri said, Chaerin punch him hard on the shoulder whiche makes Jiyong and Bom laugh

"D-do they know that Chaerin is courting me?"

"Yes they do, this is only the second time she courted a girl and the rest is--" Chaerin cut Seungri off

"Shut up Oppa, please.." Chaerin said and look at Dara

*Second time?* she asked herself

"Oh okay.." she answered

"So, can you make it tonight? Or do you want us to re-schedule it until your lovers quarrel subside.." Jiyong asked, Dara blushed

*Man! She really likes my Oppa!!!* Chaerin yelled in her mind

*Lovers quarrel? We ain't lovers.. right?* Dara thought to herself which made her blused

"No, it's okay, i won't do anything important tonight.." she answered

"Great! So we'll leave you two here and talk.." Seungri said but Dara shook her head

"We're good Oppa's there's nothing to talk about.." she answered, she look at Chaerin and rolled her eyes on her

"Are you sure?" Bom asked

"Yes Unnie, ahm can i go now?" Bom nod her head then she went out of her office

"Tsk tsk tsk i think she won't say yes to you Chaerin.." Seungri said

"No, she'll say yes to me, you'll see.." she answered and storm out of the office

*It's time for my plan B now*

 

 

7:30 pm, Lee Mansion

One of the drivers of Lee Family pick Dara up at their apartment, Chaerin has something to do with their company and can't pick her up. Dara is so nervous specially that this whole thing is just pretending

*What if we get caught?* she asked herself, she look out the window, Chaerin came into her mind though she's arrogant she knows deep down inside she is really nice and she already saw a bit of that

*I'll do this for her, i won't let her down* she smiled when she remembers the day Chaerin went to their apartment to have breakfast with her and her two sisters

"Miss Dara, we are here.." she heard the driver said, she look at the mansion

*Wow! I wonder how many rooms are in there?* the car stops at the front door, one guy open the door for her and extend his hands, Dara place her palm on his hand and smile

"Good Evening Miss Dara.." he said, Dara felt more nervous, she thinks that everyone knows her. The guy lead her to the door and when it opens, she saw Jiyong with a girl

"Hey Dara.." Jiyong said, Dara smiled at her then she look the girl and bowed her head

"Your right honey, she's pretty.." the girl said, Dara blushed and Jiyong smiled

"Dara meet my loving wife Samantha, Sam meet Dara, soon to be girlfriend of my little sister, well i hope so.." he said, Dara laugh at him, Sam extend her hand towards Dara

"It's nice to meet you Dara.." Sam said

"It's nice to meet you too Samantha-ssi.." she answered

"Call me Unnie, Samantha-ssi is toor formal.." Dara smiled at her. They went into the living room, Seungri is there with his wife Sun-hee

"Hey guys!" Samantha called them, the two smiled and walks towards the 3

"Finally! Our Family will meet the girl who caught Chaerin's heart.." Seungri said, Dara just shook her head and smiled

"No wonder Chaerin falls for you, you're a pretty girl.." Sun-hee said

"Thank you Miss.." Dara answered

"Oh she's my wife Sun-hee, Baby this is Dara.." Seungri introduced her

"Pleasure to meet you Dara and oh please just call me Unnie, okay?"

"Ahm sure Unnie, it's pleasure to meet you two.."

"Where's Chaerin? She hasn't come back yet?" Jiyong asked Seungri

"No Hyung but she said she'll be here in 10 minutes.." he answered then the door flew open and Chaerin came in

"I'm here!! Sorry i'm late.." they heard her said, Sun-hee and Samantha look at Dara and smiled

"Well you're always late, you shouldn't late Dara wait.." Sun-hee said, Chaerin didn't said anything when she saw Dara looking at her

*She's really pretty* she said to herself then her heart skip a beat

*Why does my heart beats like this everytime i'm with her?* Jiyong snap his fingers in front of Chaerin causing Seungri and their wives to laugh

"It's not polite to stare like a maniac.." Jiyong said, kidding his sister

"Shut up!" Chaerin said and walk towards Dara

"Sorry if i'm not the one who pick you up.." she said

"It's okay Chaerin.." Dara answered and gave her a faint smile

"Let's go to the Dinning room, i bet Mom and Dad are waiting for us.." Seungri said, the 2 couples walk ahead leaving the two behind

"Ahm, y-you're so pretty with your dress.." Chaerin said

"T-thanks, you don't look so bad yourself.." Chaerin laugh

"I always look good baby.."

"Oh really?"

"Uh huh.." Dara didn't replied

"Look Dara, i just want to say sorry for what i did.." Chaerin said again

"I know it's not ri--" Dara cut her off

"Let's talk about that some other time Chaerin, we still have to figure out what we'll do with this dinner.." she answered

"What do you mean?"

"You know that we're just pretending right?"

"Yeah so?"

"What if they will notice something?"

"No they won't.."

"How would you know?"

"Just trust me okay, now come on.." she said, she offer her arm to Dara, the latter cling her arm to her

"Just go with the flow, baby.." Chaerin said

 

Mr. and Mrs. Lee gave Dara a warm hug when Chaerin introduced her to them, even their grandparents did the same with Dara, the latter didn't show any nervousness around them, she donw't want to get caught

"Dara honey, how old are you?" Mrs. Lee asked her

"I'm 23 years old Ma'm.." she answered

"I told you to call me Auntie.." Dara nod her head

"You're still young, do you have any brothers or sisters?" Mr. Lee asked him

"I have two sisters Uncle both in college.."

"Jiyong told us that you are the only one working for you and your sisters, you didn't finish your studies?" Mr. Lee asked again

"No Uncle, i can go back to studying after my sisters finished their school. I'm working hard to give them a better future and i'm proud to say that they didn't fail me once.." she explained

"Your sisters are so lucky to have you.." Seungri said

"I'll do anything for them, i don't care about myself, as long as i see them happy and contented, i'm okay with that.." Mr. and Mrs. Lee look at each other, they somewhat pity for her but at the same time Dara touches their hearts

"Chaerin's lucky to have you too.." Chaerin's grandma said, Dara look at Chaerin and smiled

"Yes grandma but i'm lucky to have her in my life too.." she said

"And may we ask why?" Jiyong said

"Because even though i'm just a nobody, a simple girl with a simple dreams, she always made me feel special when i'm with her.." Dara said, Chaerin look at her in disbelief

*Did she really mean that?* Chaerin asked herself

"I know a lot of people will question us if i'll be her girlfriend one day because of our status in life.." Dara continued talking

"But i won't care, as long as she's in my life and i know she's happy with me, no one can tear us apart.." she added, Mr. and Mrs. Lee smiled at her while Chaerin can't take her eyes off  Dara

"Our little Chaerin is a nice girl but people only tend to see what they want to see.." Mrs. Lee said

"Yes they do though sometimes she's really arrogant.." Dara answered, they all laugh at what she said

"I'm not arrogant!" Chaerin protested

"I'll agree on Dara, sorry my Chaerin-ah.." her grandpa said

"But beware Dara, Chaerin seems to attract any girl she look at.." Jiyong said

"Oh really? Then i need to blindfold her everytime we go out, what do you think Oppa?" she answered, Jiyong and Seungri laugh

"Do what you want with Chaerin, you have our permision.." her Dad said

"Dad!!" Chaerin protested

 

The dinner went smooth, Chaerin is so happy that her family likes Dara so much unlike the first girl she introduced to her family few years ago

"Don't let her go.." Chaerin heard her grandpa said, she turn around and saw him standing behind her

"Grandpa.." Chaerin said

"She's the one for you, trust me.."

"The one for me?"

"Yes, if i were you, i'll do anything to keep her, don't hurt her Chaerin"

"I won't grandpa, i promise.."

"Good! Now all you need to do is make her love you back.."

"Huh?"

"Don't play dumb with me Chaerin, you love Dara but i think she's still figuring out what she feels for you.."

"Grandpa stop that, i, i like her but i d-don't love her.."

"Been there done that kiddo, you can't fool me.." Chaerin look at Dara who's talking with her Mom and Dad

"You can lie to me but the way your eyes sparkle, like what teenagers say, you got it bad dear.." he taps her shoulder and walk towards Dara. It's already 9 pm when Dara decided that she needs to go home, she give hugs to Mrs. Lee, Samantha, Sun-hee and Chaerin's grandparents, she hugs Mr. Lee when he whispered something at her

"Don't leave her Dara, i never saw her happy like this.." Dara smiled at him

"I won't Uncle.." she answered

"Thank you for the dinner everyone and it's nice meeting you all.." she said again, Chaerin stands beside her and hold her hand

"Chaerin.." Dara said

"Can you come with me for a sec?" she asked

"Huh? Where?"

"Just come with me.." Dara nodded her head and Chaerin pulled her slowly

*I hope this plan B works, oh god help me!*
