Dara felt a little pain in her head making her groan... She scrunched her face slightly and slowly opened her eyes just to see a white ceiling... "where am I?"she whispered...

     She lifted her arm and saw an IV tube on it.... "Hospital.....??? why am I here in the hospital...."she asked herself, she then remember that she fainted on the street. Her body starts to tremble upon remembering the reason why she fainted... she shook her head with tears b into her eyes... "No... it's just a dream...." she whispered... "Neh, Dara it's  just a dream... Jiyong will never hurt you..." she continued before removing the IV on her arm

     "I.... I n-need to see him...".........

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

     ................ Jiyong happily keyed the code and entered his house, he needs to put all the groceries that they bought to the kitchen then go back to his car where Sohee is waiting for him... he knows he sounds so unfair for being happy with their current situation, but he felt so happy knowing that they don't need to hide anything to the people around them, especially now that Dara knows... All he wish at the moment is that for Dara to find her happiness...

     He suddenly heard some noise coming from his kitchen... he frowned as he walks towards his kitchen thinking of what could that noise be,... he suddenly stopped seeing a familiar figure.....

     "D-Dara...?"Jiyong looked at her, puzzled...

     Dara flinched upon hearing his voice...  she took a deep breath before turning around to face him with a smile on her face... "Baby..."she said before running towards him... "surprised?"...  she asked playfully like nothing happened...

     Jiyong looked at her straight in the eyes with so much confusion. He's really not expecting to see her after what happened between them, and seeing her in front of him really surprised him... "Dara what are you doing here?"...

     "Aigoo..."Dara pouted as she tried to sound lively.... "of course I'm cooking breakfast for you- Oh wait you already bought some groceries?..."she paused looking at the bags he's holding, then grabbed them to put on the nearest counter...

    Jiyong sighed as he watched Dara doing the things she's not supposed to do...  "Dara..."

     Dara's breathing was caught up in , trying to hold back her tears... "it's just a dream Dara...."she thought, believing what she wanted to believe....... "You must be angry at me right now, aren't you?" she continued... "Mian-he, I actually arrived the other day and I want to surprise you, but maybe I'm really tired that I fell asleep and just woke up earlier..."

     Jiyong looked at her disbelievingly... "Dara, listen to m-"

     "you know I have these weird dreams..."Dara immediately cut him off, not wanting to hear what he's about to say..... "It's a nightmare actually... good thing it's just a nightmare-"

     "DARA STOP!!!" Jiyong shouted that made Dara flinched at his sudden outburst... "Just please stop...." his voice is almost begging... he can't watch Dara like this in front of him... "what have I done...?".......

     "Ji, what to---" Sohee froze on her spot seeing the girl whom she caused another pain...... she looked at her guiltily.... "U...nnie..."

     Tears started to form on Dara's eyes as soon as she saw Sohee... "So it's true... it's not a nightmare after all... it's a nightmare of my reality...." she thought, feeling the stabbing pain again on her heart... Her body starts to tremble as the whole situation started to sink in again.... she clenched her fist... "No... I can't lose like this... I... I can't..."

     "Dara...."

     With a trembling hand, Dara immediately wipes the tears on her eyes and bravely smiled at them... "o-oh.... you h-have a v...visitor....."she said with a shaky voice before turning around to pretend looking at the groceries he bought...  "Mian-he I... didn't k..know you have v-visitor... today.... I think the f-food is not enough for us...."

     Jiyong move closer to Dara... "D-dara...." he called out worriedly...

     Dara bit her lips and tried to even out her breathing to stop herself from crying.... "uhm, I... I w-will just cook another f-food for your v-visitor-", she said, her voice cracking as she continued

     "DARA STOP!..."Jiyong shouted in frustration.... "Just please stop..."

     ........ "So it's not a dream... you really cheated on me..." Dara said, a steady stream of tears falling from her eyes....

      Jiyong held both of her arms... "Dara I'm sorry...." he apologized again... "please don't do this to yourself..."

     Dara fell silent as she stared at his pleading eyes...

     Just then, Bom's angry voice was heard.... "DARA!!!" she shouted as she desperately look for her, and her eyes widen in anger upon seeing her holding by Jiyong helplessly... she clenched her fist angrily as she stride her way towards them...... "let her go, you ing bastard!"she  immediately removed Jiyong's hands away from Dara before slapping him in the face... "Don't you dare lay your dirty hand on her again..." she muttered through gritted teeth before facing Dara... "Dara are you okay?" she asked with so much concern while holding her protectively...

     But instead of answering, Dara removed Bom's hands from her and wiped her tears. She heaved a deep breath before facing Jiyong again... "Ji...." she called out as she bridged the distance between them...... "baby...." she looked at him pleadingly while reaching for his cheeks but Jiyong caught her hands...

     "Dara... please, don't do this..." Jiyong said, his voice is almost begging. he can't bear to see the Dara in front of him breaking down... every tears that falls from her eyes makes him feel more guiltier... Dara doesn't deserve the kind of pain that he gave her, and he hates himself for that...

     Dara shook her head desperately ... "No...."she answered... "I-I will forget everything..
