DARA'S POV

 

 

For the second time of the day, I stared at myself in the mirror. Checking if what I'm wearing right now is appropriate for the place. Bom lends me one of her designer clothes and forced me to wear it. Well, it looks great but I think Ms. Choi won't approve of this.

 

 

"Oh, Gosh!" I heard a loud gasp behind me and saw Bom staring at me in awe, both hands covering . "You look great Dara. See what I told you that you should be wearing?" She said as her voice echoed around the restroom we're at.

 

 

"Bom, can you lower your voice? Someone might hear us AGAIN!" Aisht, this girl.

 

 

"Sorry. I'm just excited." She said, now in a hushed tone. Thank God.

 

 

We finally got out of the restroom and head towards the HR office to get our job assignments. On our way there, Bom never stops fixing my clothes like a stage mother whose daughter is about to perform. "Bom! Will you stop it? I told you to leave me alone didn't I?" I told her feeling the irritation building up as I kept swatting her hands away.

 

 

"What? I'm just dusting your dress off to make you look presentable." Ugh. Sometimes, I feel like a kindergarten whenever Bom's around.

 

 

We turned at the corner but Bom suddenly gripped my arm to stop me and pulled me back to hide behind the wall. "Bom?! What was that for?" I shrieked as I massaged my arm where she just imprinted her nails as it digs into my skin. Aigoo.

 

 

"Shush! Be quiet.” she then leaned at the very edge of the wall and tried to peek at whoever's out there. "What is he doing here?" She mumbled but loud enough for me to hear.

 

 

"What? Who?" My curiosity got the best of me and took a peek as well, pushing Bom to the side a little. My eyes widen in shock when I saw someone standing just outside the HR Office. "S-Seungri?"

3RD PERSON'S POV

 

 

"Ma'am? You want to speak to me?" She watched as one of the top bosses of the company stared at the city view behind the floor to ceiling window of her office.

 

 

"Yes, Ms. Choi. Please, take a sit." She gestured her to sit down as the latter began to fidget the moment she took her seat. She felt nervous for this is the first time for the past years she's been working for the company that one of the top bosses, not to mention, also one of the owners of the company called for her and wanted to speak with her one on one. Before she came in, she taught of a million reasons why would she want to talk to her for she didn't do anything wrong with regards to her job. And of all the top bosses that calls her attention, why her? She is known to be the scariest and most cold-hearted person in the whole building. Beads of sweat started to form on her forehead though the air conditioner is functioning well. She swallowed a big lump forming inside the moment her boss sat on her own swivel chair and stared at her straight in the eyes. "How long have you been working here Ms. Choi?"

 

 

She looked back at her boss with wary eyes before answering. "F-five y-years." She stuttered badly as she played with her fingers to help herself calm down. She saw her nodded slowly as if contemplating what and how is she going to deliver what she taught is bad news. "Ma'am, p-please. I didn't do anything wrong when it comes to doing my job. D-Don't fire me. I'll do better I promise. I-I need this job to sustain my family." She pleaded as she clasped her hands together.

 

 

Her boss just stared at her in awe, can't believe what was happening in front of her eyes. The truth is, she doesn't have any plans of firing her. She just wanted to know if she can be trusted for what she'll do next requires another people's loyalty to her aside from her secretary. "That's good to hear then. I think we won't have any problems if you'll stick to your statement Ms. Choi." She said as she leaned on her chair comfortably.

 

 

"W-what do you mean Ma'am?"

 

 

She saw her smile for the first time and she doesn't know if she's lucky because no one in the entire building saw her do that. "You'll know soon but for now, I want to know if I can trust you."

Without second thoughts, Ms. Choi nodded her head vigorously as she stared back at her with a serious face, her brows deeply furrowed. "I want you to do what I say and exactly as I say it. Don't worry, I'll make sure that this won't harm you and that you'll be well compensated."

 

 

"What do you want me to do Ma'am."

 

 

She saw her boss smiled again as she waited for her next words.

DARA'S POV

 

 

My mind is swirling right now because of what we saw. What is Seungri doing here?

 

 

"I don't know either." I heard Bom answered. Wait, I didn't ask her the question yet. How did she... "I know right? And I'm not even a mind reader Dara. Your expression is just a dead giveaway." She said as she rolled her eyes.

 

 

"Well, that's great. At least you can hear my thoughts already without wasting my saliva just to talk." I told her but that earned me a smack on my shoulder. "Ouch! Bommie?!"

 

 

"Shhh!!! He might hear you." My eyes widen when I heard that word coming from . Is she serious?

 

 

She peeked at the edge again and checked if he's still there but sighed when she saw the hall now empty. She looked at me and told me the coast is clear. "Gosh, Bom. What is Seungri doing here? Don't tell me he's applying here too?"

 

 

"Well, that's possible. I mean what else is he here for? Business? But why only him?" She asked. My eyebrows instantly connect when she begins to rummage her bag. She fished out her phone and seemingly text someone in a very high speed, her fingers look like it’s having seizures.

 

 

I looked over her shoulder to see what she's doing. "Who are you texting?"

 

 

"Top." She answered now looking pissed. "If Seungri's here, there's a very big chance that the rest are here too. I just don't know why Top won't mention it to me if what I think is right."

 

 

Oh My Gosh! That didn't occur to me. She's right. If the maknae indeed has plans of working here as an intern, there is a big possibility that the rest, if not all, some will definitely come with him. That could mean.... oh no. No. No. Definitely no! "That's absurd Bom! That can't happen."

 

 

She shifted her gaze to look at me, surprised at my sudden outburst. "Why?"

 

 

"What do you mean why? If they work here then it’s like we never left school in the first place." I explained though it's not the reason why I'm currently having a panic attack.

 

 

"So? That will be fun don't you think? And besides, you invited Donghae too, right?" I froze the moment she sai

Chapter 66: Ahhh you are back! Welcome back ...
Dara's father really pissed me off. Is there another such selfish man?
And now he's lying and taking his daughter somewhere far away.
and this "cousin" thing bothered me a little. That's Dara's idea of ​​getting involved with another man! I do not accept this
I just want a stronger and smarter Dara.
How will her Dad look in her face when Dara finds out about everything? "Ahh Dara, I kidnapped you from your mother because I was a selfish and cowardly scum."
he can't even say that ...
and still Dara's mother!
this woman is driving me crazy.
There is a mizuhara family that makes her daughter's life a hell.
Poor Dara is experiencing the biggest pain of her life ...
Why is this woman unaware of everything and buries her head in the sand. Has she lost her instinct to be a mother?
I hope everything good soon for Dara.
Thank you for new update!
