***           It's been an hour since he last called Lee Chaerin and there's still no reply coming from her. He's been calling her since 9 pm and it's already past 12, he even dialed Minji, Bom, Winner members, his Seunghyun-hyung (Seungri), Youngbae and Jiyong's numbers and still she's nowhere to be found.          Everyone might be a little bit confused on how the story have gotten since according from the last chapter, Kim Jinwoo must be looking for his Dara-noona and not Lee Chaerin.          Actually, he already did confess to Sandara Park but--- does everything went according to plan? Well, let's just say that Kim Jinwoo realized something more important than that, something that changed him, 360 degrees...         Like a madman, he walked back and forth as he thought of  other people who might know her location.            Hi Tech Dancers, the idea suddenly popped out inside his mind, but then he erased it since one, he's too shy to call them, two, he doesn't have their numbers and three, he didn't want to confirm that she's indeed with them. He will just ask Seunghoon about their numbers later if there's no other option left, but right now, he'll just keep on calling Lee Chaerin.           He dialed her number on his phone once again.   ===   Calling...   CL-Sunbaenim     ===         He stared on it for seconds as he prayed for her to answer it. But then...           "The number you have dialed cannot be reached. Please try your call later."           Gripping his phone tightly, he sat down on the bench as he harshly ran his hand on his hair. He never felt so frustrated before. Maybe it's really too late, it's just too late to run after Lee Chaerin after all he's done to her and of course, he doesn't even stood a chance since she doesn't like him from the start.           "I think you should go back and fetch Chaerin, Youngwonnie. It's rarely for her to stay at Koko by herself. She looked like she has a problem. Why did you leave her alone there anyway, you babo?"         His ears perked up as soon as he heard her name. He looked around for the source of that vital information until his eyes found them, the Hi-Tech Dancers, as they walked towards the dance room. He tiptoed towards the studio, then listened to their conversation.         "I'm sorry. It's just that she asked us to leave her. She looked so desperate, so we left her alone. Aiish.. I'm going to fetch her now." the dancer named Youngwon said as he dashed out outside of the dance room without even noticing the deer boy.           Jinwoo's heart raced as he kept on thinking about Lee Chaerin. He knows Koko, it's a small snack and soju bar near 2ne1's dorm. Not a lot of people knew about that store so YG trainees and sometimes, idols hang around there for private meetings or get-together. It was only a 15 minute walk from YG building, but the thing is, he's Kim Jinwoo, and being Kim Jinwoo means getting lost all the time. The last time he went at that store was with Lee Chaerin herself, and he doesn't know if the map in his mind was still as clear as the day they went there. He went back to his seat, his back was arched as his heart turned into total defeat and surrender.           "So, you'll leave it just like that?"             A memory suddenly hit him, stirring his mind, which made him stood up from his seat and followed Youngwon. He's not giving up now, not now, when he fully understood everything, not now, when he fully knows what he really wanted...                 [An hour ago]         "I like you, Dara-noona."         His voice echoed inside that empty 7th floor of the famous YG building as he finally blurted out the confession that he's been hiding for about a year now. Supposedly, he should be confessing a little bit earlier, but she's been busy so he had to wait for her until 9. Even so, he thought that he 'somehow' successfully pulled it off despite him being nervous and embarrassed.          Hearing his confession, the older girl just flashed him the sweetest smile she could ever show.         "Well, you know that I like you too, right, Jinwoo-ah?" she said. The deer stared at her for a minute before he realized what she really meant. He shook his head like there's no tomorrow.         "N-no, Noona... n-not like that..." he bravely said despite the stuttering, "I like you... as a woman."            Finally grasping the situation, Dara's face turned confused as formed an O. She then blurted into soft chuckles, which earned a questioning look from the doe-eyed boy.            "Why are you laughing, Noona?" he calmly asked even though his pride's a bit crushed. The older woman finally stopped as she wiped out little tears from her eyes.           "I'm sorry, Jinwoo-ah." she said as she gently smiled at him. "So, you like me, huh?"           The boy just nodded. Dara's eyes were all set to him as if she was analyzing his every move which made him a bit self-conscious.           "What do you like about me?" she finally asked which earned a surprised look from the boy. Surprisingly, he was able to enumerate the things he like about his precious noona despite the difficult situation he was in.             "Ahm, you're always there to help me and Winner..." he started in which Dara responded with a nod.       "You always have that contagious bright smile that never fails to cheer me up despite my problems ..."       "Every time you're there, you never fail to inspire me to always work hard..."       "Without realizing it, Dara-noona became my source of strength..."         "You're like the girl of my dreams, Noona. I really like you." he finally finished, as he stared at that girl in front of him.                He didn't know whether to feel sad or disappointed since she's just nodding at everything he had said earlier with that gentle smile never leaving her beautiful lips. It's not that he's expecting her to reciprocate his feelings, it's just that he wanted a proper answer from her.             "Thank you for liking me, Jinwoo-ah." she finally said. He just bitterly smiled at her, as he nodded understandingly.           "So, it's a no, right, Noona?" he chuckled. She stared at him, playfully swaying her body.         "Well, yeah, but it's not that you confessed your love to me or something---" she stated which was cut off by a confused Jinwoo.           "Wait, N-noona... T-this is a love confession.." he blurted out. But his Dara-noona just looked at him with her cute large eyes.             "No, it's not" she argued, "You don't love LOVE me, Jinwoo-ah..."           Jinwoo couldn't be anymore puzzled in his life. He's sure of what he did more than anyone else, he just confessed his love to her and he didn't know what he did wrong for her to not to take it seriously.         Why do they always think that they can take me as a joke? With that thought, a certain person suddenly appeared in his mind.           'All I did this past few months is to draw you away from Unnie.'           He shook away the unnecessary thought, it's not the time to think about anyone else but his Dara-noona. Once again, he looked at the older girl directly in the eyes.           "I-I don't understand..." he finally said.         "Let me ask you something, Jinwoo-ah." she said as she went closer to the younger boy. "What if I tell you that I already accepted Donghae's confession? What will you do?"           He stood t
