Pairing: Dara Park and Gdragon

Recap:

“Omo! Mianhe.. Mianhe..” I heard the suspect say. “Mianhe. Are you okay?”

He kneeled down beside me and insisted to see my injury. I was about lash out on him and lecture him for his unrefine manner, not even knocking before entering. This is the CEO’s office for crying out loud!

I prepared a nasty glare at the guy, the reason why I am down with an aching behind and a bump on my forehead. But my squinting eyes grew wide with shock… and then moistened with tears from my eyes.

“Are you okay?”

I threw my arms around him and hugged him tightly closer to me. Oh my god… I knew it! I knew it! He’s real! He’s here in front of me! In my arms!

I can feel the tears gushing out of my eyes.

“I knew it…” as my voice halted as I sniffed. “Jiyong…”

Haven't Met You Yet
Chapter 17

Who Are You?

I saw myself with the other Big Bang boys, you know. T.O.P, Taeyang, Daesung, Seungri and Hyun Seung! Yes, I saw them all, only they are younger. They were chasing each other like the little kids that they are.

I followed them, running, walking and sprinting at the same time. Doing all my effort not to get caught. As they rounded the corner I hastily caught up with them only to stand face to face with Dong Young Bae.

He stopped. Uh-oh.

"Young Bae, Don't freak out, man, this is me..." I started but to my surprise, he acted as if he did not see me but just walked through me. Yes! You heard it right! He walked through me! Am I dead? What happened to me?

I wanted to test if the others won't see me too. So I glided towards the other boys who were sniggering.

"I can't believe he believed us!"

"Tch. You know Young bae, he'd always believe people. He's a very trusting person."

I jumped in the middle of them and yelled 'Boo!' I waited and waited and waited for their reaction but none came. Like Young Bae, they just continued their chatter.

"Hyung! Let's go. Sajangnim might leave the office. We should hurry."

"How about Young bae?" Hyun Seung asked.

"He'll catch up. Come on." the younger Jiyong ran again, followed by the others.

As they reached the office of the president, the secretary tried to stopped them.

"Boys, boys, don't go inside yet..." but she was ignored, as always. "Sheez, this boys. Sajangnim would give me an earful again."

I went after them once again, throwing the lady an apologetic look, though I am not sure if she can see me.

The boys finally stopped including the younger me.

"Hyung! Knock first!" Daesung exclaimed but his words fell on deaf ears, for the younger me, pushed the door of YG Hyung's office grandly without letting his presence known by knocking.

We heard a loud thud, and soft 'Ouch' from the inside.

"Uh-oh..."

“Omo! Mianhe.. Mianhe..” I heard the my younger self say. “Mianhe. Are you okay?”

He kneeled down beside the girl who was obviously hurt. Now, young man.

"Let me see it..." he said, trying to see if the girl is hurt. I can feel the suppressed anger of the girl even from the outside.

I was so sure that she'll give me a beating, oh that's weird! I will take a beating from her but not really me. The younger me not me now. haha. This is to confusing!

But when the girl raised her head, I was so shocked. She has no face!

Why can't I see her face?

“Are you okay?” Jiyong asked again, worry laced his expression. He must have seen the reaction of the girl. I could not see her face yet when I heard her cry, my heart suddenly wrenched in pain, I clutched my chest hoping that it would ease the pain I am feeling.

The girl threw her arms around the younger me and buried her face in the crook of his neck. Weeping helplessly. And as she did, it's not only my heart that's acting weird but also my head. It's like it's being split in half.

Her cries, her whimpers, it has an effect on me. My eyes blurred as she continued to cry. I tried to lean my figure on the open door but my body just went through and I can feel myself falling...and falling...into nothing... But before I closed my eyes I heard her sweet, beautiful voice...

"I knew it...Jiyong..."

"Hyung! Hyung! He's waking up! Jiyong hyung is waking up!" I heard the excited voice of our maknae.

My eyes fluttered open and sat up straight on the bed panting and sweating like crazy.

Lightly touching my head, I hissed at the still overly excited Seungri. "Yah... Maknae. Do you want to wake the whole apartment? Stop shouting, your making my headache once again." the truth is, my world spinning right is not Seungri's fault at all but his shouting just makes it worse tha it already is. I struggled to stay seated but the blinding pain on my head is so persistent.

Why is my head aching like this?

Oh! Yeah. I drank last night! But I did not drink that much so why s my head acting like this?

And that dream! that weird dream! I remembered how everything seemed so real.

The girl seems to know me. But how can I prove that I am associated with her if I did not even see her face?

But her voice... it's sweet and melodious. Now that I am wake, remembering her voice is not that painful anymore, it calms me, and soothes me.

"Yah! Hyung! Are you okay? Why are you smiling like that?" then he turned to the slightly opened door of my room. "Young bae hyung! Help! I think Ji-hyung took something weird last night. I think he has a screw loose!"

"Shut up! Are you saying that I am insane?! Just get me a cup of coffee. The hangover is killing me!"

Seungri rushed out of the room. I went back to where I stopped moments ago.

Seungri can sometimes be a pain in the neck yet I am sure that he would always do anything that he deems good for us.

The image of the crying lady invaded my mind once again. Who could that woman be? Did that really happen or was it just a dream?

I tried to remember her voice, closing my eyes and concentrating on it once again, but instead of hearing her cries and last words she uttered...

Something else entered my mind.

It was a boy's voice. .

“Noona, don’t tell me it’s love at first sight?”

My forehead creased at the new sound. 'Who...?'

“Don’t mind him..." that's her voice! that's her!

"Who are you?"

***************

The guys had been so worried when they went to my apartment the next day only to see me sprawled on the floor. They thought someone attacked me and robbed my condo.

But I told them that I had a terrible migraine. I even told them that I had heard someone screaming for help. But of course, they laughed at me. They said that it must have been the alcohol.

Maybe, maybe it really is just a hallucination.

"So, you said that Hyunseuk hyung will introduce a new group to the family right?" I asked my members. We are preparing for tonight's performance at one of the clubs of YG hyung's friend.

"They said that they were supposed to be introduced last night but one of the members was unable to arrive yesterday. We asked YG hyung to just introduce the members who are already there, but he refused, saying that they are a group so they are going to be introduced as one. No one will be left behind. And you know that his words are law. You can't really contradict him." Seunghyun said, with a grimace.

"So is it a new hip hop band? Like, they'll be our juniors?" I was so excited. Finally, we'll have a new group. YG Entertainment is pretty small. But I am proud to say that all artists in YG are really famous. A small but strong company. So this new group makes us feel so excited. For sure they'll do great too!

"They said that it's a hip hop group too! But no one's spilling the beans yet. They really wanted them to be a big surprise to all of us."

"Yes, they really are a big surprise to us. Never heard that YG sunbae is training a new group. It was well-kept from us!" Seungri went to sit beside Jiyong. And grinned naughtily. "I somehow wish that we would have a new girl group!"

"Yeah! Maybe, Hyung kept them from us because he knows you would just pester them all day if he would not. They won't be able to focus on their training." I barked back at him.

The maknae pouted. "But it's only YGE which does not have pretty girl group dongsaengs and noonas! I want to have one too! So I can boast to Hyun Seung hyung! keke."

I heard that they are going to debut too later this year! I should give him a ring later to congratulate him and wish luck as well.

"But seriously, why did they keep their identity to us?"

"I am not sure Jiyong," Young Bae shrugged. "The only thing hyunseuk hyung told us is that they'll be a success! He was so sure of it!"

"Then, they must be good to gain that praise from Hyung! I am really dying to see and meet them already!"

"You don't have to wait that long, hyung. It's tonight! Well, it's supposed to be last night. You are still lucky for you probably would not have met them if they did show last night."

"I guess having headache is good too? Hmmm. I am not left out."

This new group, I wonder what kind of people they are? It's not enough to be just great performers. I have heard of many artists and agencies not having good relationships because of the artists' attitudes. I just hope they fit in YG.

YG is not just a company that will help them fulfill their dreams. It is also our second home.

"So Ji, what did you and Chloe do last night, huh?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" I decided to play dumb and act like I don't know what they are implying.

"Oh come on bro, don't tell me you did not ask her..." I know that they are going to push me and tease me about Chloe being here in Japan but my answer is a big no.

" I already told you that I only see Chloe as a friend now. It'll never change."

"Woah, bro, don't be so serious, we were just teasing you." Young Bae raised his two hands in defeat.

"Nope, Bae. If Chloe heard you, she might think that there's still a chance for us, and I don't want to give her false hope anymore."

"We understand, but the girl is still obviously smitten with you."

"Just don't give her false hope anymore, okay. She's a good woman."

"But not good enough for you." TOP added.

"She's just not who I'm looking for." he muttered under his breath. "Besides, she deserves a man who would love her back." Chloe is a wonderful girl. She needs someone who would love her the way she loves the man back and I am afraid I could not love her the way she does.

*************************

"How can you be so sure that it’s me?" her voice. I can hear it again. Why am I keep on dreaming about her voice.

"Why did you avoid me then?” it haunts me. Whenever I would try to take a nap.

“Why? Are you okay?” She sounded so unsure. So lost. So afraid. And so worried.

“Jiyong… are you okay?” Why does she know me? How come she knows my name when I don't even remember her face.

"Jiyong, man, you fine?" it's my best friend. We are at the club now, doing our rehearsals. And I can't take my mind off of the girl. Like she asking me to remember her yet...yet no matter how much I proded my mind. It would not budge.

"Bae, do you remember last night?"

"Yeah, you are dead drunk and you passed out."

"Excuse me? I am not dead drunk! I just had a terrible headache. Well you know what? I also had a weird dream. or hallucination. But I don't know it felt so real."

"Really? A dream is a dream bro. It may or may not happen. But it would not ever be what had happened. So don't linger on it anymore, you'll cross teh bridge when you get there."

I let my eyes roam the club. Everyone is busy socializing and here I am trying to figure out a girl who I am not sure if just a pigment of my imagination or true.

YG sunbae only issued invitation to selected people. mostly his friends and business partners in Korea and here in Japan. Models, actors and actresses are everywhere, partying the night away.

We've already performed moments ago and just waiting for the highlight of the night.

"Hi!" I tore my gaze away from the disco ball light and to the owner of teh voice.

"Chloe..."

"Yes, it's me again." she laughed nervously.

"Did they invite you?" this people! they can't really think that there's still a chance for us can't they?

"Oh, no. Actually, my father is here. President YG invited him and he asked if he could bring me with him."

"Your father knows YG hyung?"

"Yes, they were college friends so i think yes." she then turnd her attention to bae. "Bae, how come you are not flirting around?"

Bae grinned at her. "I don't want to miss the introdution of the new group. The view here is quite good so I'd rather not leave." he looked over at the dance floor and chuckled. "Besides, our makane is already doing just that for me."

"Seungri haven't change. All of you. You're still the same." she frowned, processing all Young bae told her. "You have new trainees?"

"No, I think they are not new trainees. YG sunbae kept them from us. Maybe they have been training them for years now. They are going to introduce the new group to the family tonight."

Then the music stopped, getting all their attention. Lights were turned off, but at the center stage, the black lights were turned on, revealing four figures.

Murmurs and whispers erupted but it was again stopped by a loud siren followed by the voice over's foghorn-like voice...

"Are you ready?!"

And the crowd erupted to loud cheers and excitement flowed.

"YGE presents... the New Evolution of the 21st Century!!"
