Superman's Kryptonite
Still In Love
“Jae…” Dara was in awe to see how the rooftop, their rooftop.. then turned into such a serene place. A table under a
gazebo with lots of white calla lilies around it, candles on the pathway with little white heart shaped papers flying from the
pathway. She turns to face jaejoong and saw him looking at her intently. He smiled at her. “the last time you are here, you
are crying, because of me, right now, I want to see you smile about this set up because of me.” He said and guided her
into the gazebo. Dara didn’t protest when jae get a hold of her hand. She look down on their intertwine hands and felt
different. Its been a long time but it seems like yesterday. His hand maybe turned a little rough as time goes by but the
warmth it has back then is still there. Just like before.
Jae can’t help but to smile seeing how Dara is enjoying the food he prepared. He may not be a good chef, but he tried
his best to learn the food that she liked. “are you laughing at me?” Dara asked with her eyebrow arched. Jaejoong
chuckled. “aniyo, it’s not what you think. You still eat like that” he said. Dara crossed her arm across her chest and rested
her back on the chair. “wae?” Jaejoong can’t hold it anymore and reached for her face. Dara was shocked when he is

she is burning up. Her face probably is crimson red but she can move away from him. There something about him
looking at her is making her to just enjoy the moment. “enjoy the moment?” a voice inside her said. “Just like before” he
whispered and kissed her forehead.
Jaejoong and Dara continue the dinner with the dessert he made. “what is this?” Dara asked. Suddenly after a long
awkward moment she managed to calm down, well her heart most probably is still beating fast. Jaejoong puts down the
plate with his share of the dessert. “banana split?” he said. Actually he is not sure too on what to call the thing he puts in
front of her. He didn’t anticipate that the ice cream will not survive. He scratched his head. “Sorry Sandara, I thought the
cooler can keep the ice cream intact but…” Dara saw the sincerity and innocence in his eyes. She knows that Jaejoong
is a poor cook. They once tried to cook in one of their classes but unfortunately Jaejoong failed. They ended up
switching projects then, for him to get the passing grade. For her, she needed to redo the whole cooking process. To
jaejoong’s surprise Dara started eating the banana split. “why did you..” “it’s good” she beamed a wide smile towards
Jaejoong. Jaejoong literally froze seeing the bright smile Sandara is giving him. It’s a long time that he wanted to see
that smile again. The smile that captivated him the first time he s
