“So, in summary Dara happen to knows that her cousin went to participate in the event that takes place on the underground club without her consent and you, Seunghyun, Youngbae, and Daesung just happened to run into him and his friends there. She mad because both of you hide this matter from her, right? Because of this you and Seunghyun fight with each other that makes you ended up like this, correct?” Hyorin try to put the story together after hearing it from Jiyong.

Jiyong just told them some parts of it and not the entire story as he must keep his promise with her

Flashback

“As for the fact that the three of us spending the night together could you please keep it a secret? I mean, it’ll be a secret between the three of us.” Dara asked, feels embarrassed

“Of course, it should just be a secret between the three of us.”

“Sure, I’ll keep it a secret, don’t worry.”

End of flashback

“Well, more or less.” He replied

“Did you think that hiding the truth from Dara is the right thing to do?” Hyorin asked Jiyong angrily

“I don’t want her to be worried so I decided to not tell her. Is that wrong?” he retaliate, feels frustrated

“Seems like her birthday this year turned out to be the ones that she can forget easily because of someone selfish attitude here.” Hyorin said while stare deeply at Jiyong

“Do you think I want this to be happen on her birthday?” he glare at her

“It wouldn’t be happen in the first place if you’re honest with her and tell the whole truth.” She replied fiercely, seems to not afraid with Jiyong’s glare at her.

“Hyorin-ah, that’s enough. Just let Jiyong alone and reflect his own action.” Youngbae tells her

“It’s my words wrong? I’m just saying.” She shrugged her shoulder

“I’m not saying that your words are wrong. It’s just this matter it’s not Jiyong entire fault.” Youngbae try to defend his best friend

“Yes, it’s not just him. You, Daesung, and Seunghyun have a part on it too as you keep silent about this.” Hyorin said, feels irritated

“Youngbae and the others has nothing to do with this. Don’t mixed them up, okay? They’re just happened to be in the wrong time and place.” Jiyong yelled at her angrily

“Jiyong, don’t yelled like that, calm down okay? Hyorin-ah, please don’t be like this. We’ve our own reason for keep silent.” Youngbae try to cool down the situation

“Let me asked you then, did you think Jiyong act to hide this matter from Dara is right?” Hyorin seems to lost her patience

“I don’t think that his act was right but he did it out of goodwill. He cares with Dara and act his way to protect her feelings. All we can do is to be a support for him. Even though it turned out not good at least he didn’t do it with bad intention. So please try to understand him too and spare his feeling. Don’t be too harsh with him.” Youngbae try his best to convince her.

His words seems to get through and suddenly she feels bad with her words before to Jiyong.

“Well, I’m sorry if my words before seems too harsh but I think you need to consider about Dara’s feelings too.” Hyorin said genuinely

“I just don’t want to add more trouble to her life but it seems the contrary now.” He sighed

“Excuse me, I got a phone call from my company. You two can continued the conversation you had before, I need to answer the phone call.” Youngbae then get up and go away to answered the phone, leave them alone at the school cafeteria.

“You know, when I saw the news about the runaway criminal at the underground club on the next day after Youngbae had a performance there it makes me feels scared and relieved at the same time. Even though he came back safely and fine but what if something bad happened to him when I wasn’t there. That thought flashed in my mind and makes me worried. For my case as I already know about his plan to be performing at underground club I can feel at ease. How about Dara then? She doesn’t know anything at all. Fortunately nothing serious happened to Seungri and his friends. Can you imagine her feeling when she finally find out about this? She’s sure will be furious and sad as you just left her out like this.” Hyorin’s words filled with emotion that shows them her deep feeling.

As Jiyong heard Hyorin words he kind of understand with Dara’s feeling. He realize that he just pushed his idea about what is the best for her from his own point of view without thinking about her feeling at all. He just keep silent while brooding about his action to Dara.

“I didn’t know that your feelings towards Youngbae were this deep.” Jiyong finally said, feels impressed

“You should be proud that your best friend had a girlfriend like me.” She said conceitedly

“Did Youngbae know about this?”

“I can’t bring myself to tell him. It’s embarrassing you know.” She blushed

Jiyong had a mischievous looks after heard Hyorin words. Hyorin notice his changed expression and suddenly had a bad feeling about it.

“So, what did you say to Jiyong?” Youngbae come back after finished with his phone call.

“You know, she..” Jiyong was about to tell Youngbae when Hyorin cut him abruptly

“I said he needs to perceive from other people view too, not just his view.” Hyorin explain briefly while throw a warned look to Jiyong to not say anything further about what she told him before.

“I think Dara just wants you to acknowledge her presence that she’ll always be by your side whether you’ve a good day or bad
