Annyeong minna san!!! :DDD Okay, that was a combination of Korean and Japanese but whatever. LOL I wanna say sorry if the update took a reeeeally long time . . . three weeks? Mianhaeyo! I was really busy in work. -_- Aish! Should I retire early then? Puahahaha!

How are you my fellow Royals? So many things happened but still, we’re not gonna abandon this ship! Ne?! :)

#RoyalConfessions (Why am I using a hashtag here? I don’t know either. Haha!) I’m not threatened with the Daragon ship . . . hello if there’s any Applers here, I mean no harm guys. Keke I am more concerned with KiyongXDara. I’m being serious here. From the moment they had that suuuper close selca to him going here in the Philippines to Dara mentioning on IG that him being “pogi” to that hand laying comfortably on her shoulders and so much more!

I need a major, major, major move from uri fish boy! Donghae oppa! Save us from this drought juseyoooooo!!! LMAO

Arasso.

Go now and read! Hahaha! :p

Both of them were ready.

Ready to tell the world who belongs to whom. Who owns whom.

That day when the two held each other’s hands inside Dara’s Range Rover, totally sweating it all out. That day when their determination was over the top to finally meet the head of YG Family. That day when they planned to go to the president of SM Town afterwards. That day when they vowed that no matter what happen . . .

“I will never leave you, Dara.”

“I won’t let you do it anyway, fishy.”

That day when she smiled ever so lovely that completely eased the erratic beating of his heart. That day when they believed that they could finally take that first step, halfway of their happily ever after.

But that day . . .

Just one phone call . . .

It didn’t go the way they envisioned that day to happen.

Little our favorite couple knew, it was the day that welcomed that son of a devil red ink open arms.

That day was the day when their love story was rewritten with a different kind of ending.

“Noona.”

“Sanghyun ah.”

“What did YG nim say?” The youngest member of Park family asked her weakly. “Is it settled already? Can we finally push it through? I believe having it tomorrow is perfect. The sooner, the better, right?” Hope was the only thing that could be seen in Thunder’s eyes.

Dara raised her right hand to her brother’s left cheek. “Mianhe.” She nodded slowly and closed her eyes in defeat. “Sanjangnim . . . he said that the person couldn’t make it.”

“Again?” Thunder’s voice was slowly giving in to that second time feeling of hoping so bad on something but ended up nowhere. The two wanted to embrace each other for support but they didn’t. They somehow knew that if they did, they would end up crying until dawn just like in the past few days.

They just stared at the floor, not knowing what to do. Thunder looked to his right when he felt someone’s hand pressed his right shoulder tightly. “Hyung.”

“Stop it, you two.” The fish then put his left hand on top of Thunder’s head to mess his hair and right hand pinched Dara’s little rabbit nose. “Your sister is a one tough lady. She can get through this. We can find another donor. With YG’s connections . . . plus, I asked for Siwon’s help and he said that his father is already doing his best in finding someone who will match Durami.” He smiled at the two encouragingly.

“Jagi,” Dara’s tears were threatening to burst once again but Donghae held them back as he pulled her by the waist and cupped her face to look at him.

“Sshhh. Jagiya.” Donghae kissed her forehead before speaking again. “You’ve got to trust the people around you. You’ve got to trust the God above. He won’t forsake you and your family. You’ve got to trust your sister. She was born a fighter, much stronger than any of us. It’s going to be okay, right? Right?” When Dara smiled and nodded, he pulled her for a tight embrace which he knew they both needed.

“Sanghyun ah, come here,” told Donghae as Dara smiled at her brother and stepped to her left to give a space to him. The fish extended his left arm to him while his right hand was on top of Dara’s head that settled on his shoulder.

“Hyung.” Thunder walked to the couple and joined them for a very tight embrace. “Hyung.” His voice cracked.

“Sshhh. It’ll be okay. She’ll be fine. We’ll still have that two weeks vacation in the Philippines, n-ne? We made that promise together.” Donghae’s grip on Dara’s waist and Sanghyun’s head tightened.

“Ne.” Dara and Thunder said in chorus, burying their heads on Donghae’s shoulder.

 The Super Junior member then looked to his left side and saw Park omma staring at them with those very tired and saddened eyes. She was maybe smiling back at him but he knew too well, she was at the verge of it.

Just like Dara.

Just like Sanghyun.

Just like him.

That hope that they were clinging onto was lost in a matter of two days. Bone marrow donor. That’s all they needed. Sanghyun matched hers but for some medical reasons, he couldn’t donate as well. When he learned about it, no amount of comfort from his mother and sisters could take the regret and pain that he was feeling for not being of help to his precious sister. That was only the first. Next, it was YG who finally found a donor from Busan but it backed out at the day of operation. “I’m sorry. I can’t do it.” That was all that person said before leaving them in front of Durami’s room. Third slash was this. The donor YG found from U.S. told him that he was donating it to another Cancer patient in his family.

For the third time around, their prayers were rejected. Why? They didn’t know either. Donghae didn’t want to admit but . . . reality was screaming on their faces.

No words of encouragement could change the fact that they were losing to that long hand of clock. Every grain of sand that fell on that timer was risking Durami’s life.

And no word could describe how excruciating it was to wait for someone who could save her life.

Heechul

Siwon

Leeteuk

Yesung

Kangin

Ryewook

Kyuhyun

Eunhyuk

Donghae

All Super Junior members were handsomely dressed up in tux.

“Are you guys ready?” asked Donghae as he checked at s for the nth time already.

“Yah maknae! You should be at the back of Eunhyuk!” Leeteuk shouted across the corridor.

“Andwae! Why would I be behind that monkey? In fact, I should be the first one to enter.” Kyuhyun pouted at the SJ leader.

“Yah! Who are you calling monkey?!” Eunhyuk smacked the evil maknae’s head in front of him.

“Of course, The Great, Heenim should be the first one to make appearance. Duh.” Heechul flipped his now imaginary long hair at the SJ maknae.

“What ‘The Great’ is hyung talking about?” Ryewook asked Kangin who was in front of him.

“Just Kim Heechul being Kim Heechul.” Kangin looked back at him and nodded before saying out loud. “Be serious y’all!”

“Aniyo,” whined Siwon. “We’re here to lighten up the atmosphere and make them happy. Why sh-”

“I know that, okay?!” Kangin pointed a finger at Siwon.

Yesung raised his right hand. “Who brought a nail cutter? Anyone?”

“Maknae! You’re not supposed to be there!”

“Hyung! But a human shouldn’t be following a mere chimpanzee.”

“Now, who’s chimpanzee are you talking about?!” Eunhyuk pulled Kyuhyun’s hair.

“Seriously, I’m bothered by my index finger’s nail.”

“Try rubbing it on the wall hyung,” told Ryewook thoughtfully.

“Guys, I think I should change my hair color to violet.” Heechul just dropped.

“I forgot to eat lunch. Can we have D&E go first?” Ryewook asked their leader.

“I can go solo!” Kyuhyun raised his hand at Ryewook.

“Oh! I want to go solo too! Wait, can I have my drums delivered? Promise! It’ll be quick.” Heechul waved a hand at Leeteuk.

“If I’d bite my fingernail, would it go as it is or . . . zigzag like?”

Donghae, who was already fuming in irritation at the back, looked at his brothers incredulously. With just one question, different answers already sprouted.

“Guys! Please! Jebal!” Donghae shouted at them sternly before turning a very straight face. “Those who don’t want to do this are free to go. I’m not forcing you. I can do this alone.” The fish looked like he was about to cry. After everything that happened for the past two weeks, he had gone really sensitive.

Silence.

“We’re just waiting for your go signal.” The Suju leader smiled at the fish.

“We’ve been standing here for fifteen minutes to line up,” said Ryewook.

“You’re the one who’s taking all the time,” added Kyuhyun.

“Breathe for a second, Donghae,” told Kangin.

 “No one’s gonna cry, arasso?” Yesung looked at s seriously.

“Let’s make them forget everything even just for a couple of minutes,” said Siwon.

“We’re ready.” Eunhyuk flashed his gummy smile at s before staring back at the fish.

“Are you?” Heechul stared at Donghae while smirking.

“Always. For them.”

Their mini Super Show concert inside the ICU was nearing its end.

Yes.

A post SS6 encore in an Intensive Care Unit.

Siwon knew the owner of the hospital and he made it possible although Super Junior had to take full responsibility if anything happens to Durami while they’re inside it. The Park family agreed when the fish suggested the plan. Afterall, they just wanted to see the precious Durami laugh again.

Lights from the ceiling were out. The only sources of light that could be seen in the room were from the two emergency light boxes that the SJ members used as spotlight and Suju’s trademark blue lightsticks on the hands of their ever so lively audience. Durami. Dara. Thunder. Lee omma. Chaerin. Bom. Minzy.

They already sang their best songs. Sorry, Sorry. Mr. Simple. Bonamana. Beautiful. Shirt. This is Love. Evanesce. No Other. From U. Even their subunits already finished theirs. KRY. Super Junior M. D&E.

Mamacita just ended.

Intro of Devil was heard.

“Aaaaahhhhhh!!!!” Bom and CL were shaking each other and jumping up and down near the wall on the left side.

“Hey~ Hey~Well~ . . . Hey~Hey . . .” Siwon walked to the front and devilishly smirked at CL and Bom.

“Siwon oppa! So handsome!” Minzy screamed while having four lightsticks on her two hands. The SJ visual winked at the 2NE1 maknae before going back to s.

Thunder and Dara were on the left side of Durami’s bed while their mother was on her right.

“Donghae hyung. Stop wearing sunglasses. Dara noona kept on drooling Durami noona’s bed. It’ll be a lot of hassle to ask the hospital staff to change it.” Thunder teased his sister who kept on blushing since their Oppa, Oppa performance a while ago.

“Yah! I’m not drooling!” Dara turned to her back and pinched her brother’s cheeks.

“Super Junior fighting!” Durami cheered out loud. She was clearly enjoying the mini concert. It was for her after all. Her right hand was holding her mother’s hand. On her left was an ELF lightstick which she never put down from the time Donghae gave it to her.

For a moment, Durami felt that everything was back to normal. That no pain could make her scream for her mother and sibling’s name. That there was no reason for her family to worry about. That there was nothing to be disappointed ‘cause every donor of hers backed out. That there was nothing to be afraid of ‘cause time was really running out. That they could all smile and laugh again. For once, she was genuinely smiling again. For once, she was laughing nonstop again.

And that’s all because of the ever-so-dorky Korean male group . . .

 Super Junior.

“Suju Fighting!” Durami waved her lightstick up in the air.

“Oh Baby, Baby please don’t go” Donghae kept his stare only at Dara during all his parts.

“Damn it Dara! I want a boyfriend as hot as Lee Donghae too!” Bom just blurted out loud which made everyone laughed, even the Suju guys who were singing and dancing with all their might.

“Devil!”

“Oh~Oh!”

“Shower!”

“Oh~Oh!”

“Hey~Hey~Hey!”

They all chanted the English parts just like every fangirls do. Bigbang told them after their debut that 2NE1 should be VIPS exclusively. But screw that! Although Bigbang’s music hypes the crowd the most… it was the first time that the girls gone crazy jumping, screaming the Suju members’ names, singing along while cracking their voices out and waving the Sapphire Blue lightsticks. It was something that they had wanted to do. To attend a Super Show concert together and gone crazy for these drop dead gorgeous namjas. Yep. They are ELFs even before debut.

Heechul’s solo came. The diva approached CL and held her hand to guide on their “stage.”

"Mok taoreuneun da jeoksyeooneun, Matbogo sipeun geudaeya" He sang, ending with a playful smirk at CL. The baddest female was totally red and kept on hiding her face with the lightstick on her hand.

"Deureojwo" Kangin went to Minzy and ushered her to where they were performing for the whole time.

"Deureojwoooo!"

“Badajwo~” Eunhyuk danced his way to Bom who didn’t even show a hint of hesitation when she grabbed the SJ’s dancing machine’s arm and danced with him on the center.

"Badajwooooo!"

“I say, naneun geunyang da joha~”  Donghae then pulled Dara and Thunder from the bed to join them.

"Naneun geunyang da joha!" The girls shouted.

“I say, ne modeun ge da joha~” Ryewook went to Durami’s side where her siblings left and held her hand while dancing and singing at her. Little does he know, he was D
