Chapter 18:

2 days later :

Dara's POV : 

Oh my God ! She's gonna be here in just a few hours, I'm so excited.
I haven't seen her since she left ! Oh! as I pointed her index finger up, I have to 
make a breakfast for the boys, just in case, I should also leave a message.
I ran to my room and looked for a pen and paper to write a note, that I'm going to the 
airport to pick Moonie up.

letter says :

........,

I'm going to pick Moonie up and sleeping over,
Sorry if I couldn't get your permission properly but 
you guys were sleeping so I just left, Ciaos :D

-Dara.

And I left the hostel and met with CL and them. We used Bom's car and went
straight in the airport, when we got there, there was a lot of cameras and reporters
focusing in one spot, we knew that they were here for Moonie. I was worried that Moonie
might not be able to see us since they were really a lot of them. I turned to my girlfriends
and seems like they feel the same way, we felt uncomfortable by just standing there.
And then finally, Moonie came out and cameras started to flash, I should've known that
Moonie is really famous enough for all the Koreans to know her, except that *guy.
As I put a blank expression in my face.
[A/N : * = talk about SeungRi. :D ]
Then, Moonie was extra-guarded because of the reporters and the people who went there
just to see her.
[A/N: Moonie is a famous designer in America, her brand was really popular in the whole world.
I'm exaggerating but I made it that way :D]

JiYong's POV :

When I woke up, I didn't see Dara anywhere, I was kind of worried so I went to knock on her
door, but didn't get any response, I opened it and there was no one. I headed back to the kitchen
and saw a note in the table, I took it and read it. Moonie? Why is that name sounds really familiar? Seriously,
where have I heard this name?
I saw a food in the table and took some and headed to the 
living room and turned the TV on. News is on, my eyes widened when someone caught my eyes,
is that Dara? I gasped, it is her! What is sh---, then I saw someone that suddenly hugged her
a girl with a tied-up hair. Who? Don't tell me, that's Moonie? But why --, 
the camera was suddenly focused on the reporter, he said, "the korean designer, Moonie, who made her brand
'08 famous throughout the nationwide and the international as well has arrived in Korea, her
hometown." And then they focused on her again and I saw Dara with her friends as well, 
now, I remember! We were using her brand, but we rarely does, that's why... I see. as I nodded
like I'm talking to someone.
"Hyung," SeungRi called, "where's Dara?"
"Call her Noona," I said,
"Why should I?" he asked,
"she's older than you by a month."
"hyung," as he munched the food that Dara made, "it's only a month, there's not much
difference."
"whatever," as I rolled my eyes, "oh, by the way, that Moonie--,"
SeungRi ran toward me interestedly by what I'm about to say, "what about her?"
"don't even think about hitting on her, you don't stand a chance," I told him frankly.
"What?!" he outraged, "Hyung, what do you mean by that?!"
"What I just said is what I just said," I told him while rhythming it with my hand gestures.
"h-hyung," he sound dejected. "Are you really supposed to be my hyung?!"
As he scratched his head. "Well, then don't listen to me, and just go for it,"
he stopped, "BUT, don't go saying I didn't warn you or something."
He looked at me confusedly while pouting.

Moonie's POV:

"Unnie, why are you so quiet?" I asked Bom Unnie. She looked at me in the front mirror because she's driving.
"U-uh," she stuttered and smiled.
She must be still thinking that she's the reason why I broke up with him. The memories came flowing back.
"Woahh, I missed this place!" I smiled brightly while looking out the window.
They laughed at me, I pouted, "I thought you forgot about us already, four years without contacting us,"
MinJi paused, "then suddenly calling Bom Unnie, it really surprised us."
"MinJi-ah, why do use such a formal way of talking, talk to me informally, I maybe older but I'm still a close friend,
right?!" I said curiously.
"Yah, Yah, don't spoil MinJi," CL interrupted.
"CL-rooo! KAAAAH, I miss you so muchh, >,<" I hugged her tight since she's next to me.
"GAAHH ! You're killing me, st-stop it," CL managed to say. I giggled.
"DARA!" I screamed her name, "Yah, don't scream I'm not deaf, I can hear you, jeez," she said.
"Psst, psst," I poked Dara, 
"What?" 
"What's popping?"
"Nothing much, I'm just carefree as before, I think?"
"HUUUUUUUH?!" I gasped jokingly.
"Yah !" she slaps me softly.
We all laughed.

I really missed laughing with you guys, I smiled as I thought of it,
But Dara, she seemed really bright now, last time I left, she's just smiling, never really laughed at all,
I wonder if something happened ? Or am I just too far to know all of the things that has happened here?

"We're here!" Dara pointed outside, I took a look and.. they're living in an apartment.
"You guys live in an apartment?" I asked.
"No, me and CL Unnie lives together," MinJi replied, "Bom Unnie and Dara Unnie used to lived together before but she moved out."
"I see~," then I turned to Dara, "Dara, why'd you move?"
I saw her gulped, then I looked at her suspiciously and she finally said,
"I-ill tell yo-u later."
"You better," I said as I pointed my index finger to her.

Dara's POV:

We went inside and I told her my story..

"REALLY? So, he was alive all this time?" 
I nodded, "DARA! Ain't that great?!" she had that brightest smile ever.
I smiled.

We went to an amusement park and play, we ate outside, arcades, shopping..
Well, you could say that's what a normal teenagers would do :D
After the long hanging out, we finally decided to go home, and go to sleep.
"Are you guys sleeping over?" Bommie asked, I looked at my friends,
"Uhm, Unnie, I can't sleepover, I have to go home, I haven't greet my parents yet, maybe next time?" Moonie begged.
"That's okay, I'll take you guys home," Bommie said, 
"Mianhe," Moonie said as she have that I-feel-bad look in her face.
"It's okay," Bommie said. While they were having conversation all I could think of is JiYong, the one that happened to us last time in the roof, Ughh, that guy! >.< I shook my head. 
"Dara Unnie, we're here," MinJi said, I looked outside the window.
"Ohh, thanks, I'll call you guys later, goodnight, be careful," as I went outside the car and waved goodbye,
Now that you mention it, did JiYong eat yet? I heard he's gonna be be left out for the night toda--y.........
GAHHHHHHHH ! As I came to realization, left out = alone = me and JiYong alone DDDDDDDDD: ! OH NOOOO ! I used the stairs to make it a little bit longer cause.. we're gonna be alone.
I opened the door with my key and when I opened it, I sneak a peek,
"hey, what are you doing?" a familiar voice said from my behind, I was startled, "Dara?"
I turned around quickly to see .. JiYong, I smiled, I don't know why, but I wasn't used not to see him, maybe because..
I got used to him... "Hi," I said, "I thought you were gonna go sleepover with your friends," he said as I opened the door for him, 
"Oh, it was canceled cause Moonie can't sleepover, she said she have to greet her parents,"
"I see, so, did you have fun?"
I nodded, and he smiled, I was struck, my heart was beating so fast,
"Uhmm, I'm going to the bathroom first," then ran out of the living room, and went to the bathroom.

"W-what? hey stop it," as I put my hand to my chest.
"STOP!" I unconciously shout,

after a second, "Dara! Are you okay?" JiYong is on the other side.
"E-eh, Y-eah," I stuttered, "Are you sure?" he asked,
I placed my hand in the door, and put my face sideways along with my hand,
"Yeah," I told him, as long as your with me.. then suddenly my tears started to fall down,
Leukemia, it's not too late yet... that echoed into me, I don't know what's going on,
I don't know why am I feeling this way, when I see him, my heart skips a beat, I always smile,
even when I have problem, when I sees him I feel like it could go away at anytime..
"Dara, are you really sure?" he asked again with his gentle voice, "Ye-ah," my voice cracked because I was crying again
when I heard his voice. 
Right now I'm thinking if I were to get the surgery, would he still be there for me? Will I still be able
to hear his kind voice? My Leukemia is getting worse day by day, I have to tell Oppa that I'm SanDara.. I was alive, all this time.. As for JiYong, this weird feelings I get whenever I'm around him is just uncontrollable. What should I do?
I cried and stayed in the bathroom for 2 hours, trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do.

I opened the door and I saw JiYong sitting down in the side, his eyes were close, I slowly kneel down,
I touched his face, "Sorry, I've decided to not take *it, but I promise that I'll tell Oppa before
time runs out," then after 20 seconds I intentionally kissed his forehead, and tears started to fall down again.
[A/N: * = the surgery for the leukemia.]

JiYong's POV:

I heard the door opened so I pretended to sleep, then suddenly Dara, she knelt down and started talking about
not getting it and even promised that she'll tell YoungBae that she's her sister, but the thing that I didn't get was
the part when she said that 'it' and 'before time runs out' what does she mean? I suddenly recalled the first time we met,
"I have leukemia," this echoed to my mind then I felt her hand touching my hair pulling it to the back and she kissed my forehead and I felt tear that dropped to my forehead, she stood up and run to the kitchen, I slowly opened my eyes and I turned to her while she's running. Even though we're just standing at the same place, I felt that she's really far even though she's right there. I quickly stood up, I followed her, I grabbed her arm and hugged her and burried her to my chest.
"You, is there something you can't tell me?" I asked and desperately tried to find the answer..
"JiYong-..shi," 
"Call me Oppa," I said,
"... Oppa," she said and I smiled.
As I was hugging her, I felt something was wrong with me, I got this weird feelings, 
Why am I so comfortable? I touched her face and told her,
"I'm always gonna be at your side, so tell me if something is wrong, okay?"
and she nodded.
