Recap::

“You are just my bodyguard.”

It echoed in his ears. He is just her bodyguard. Right now, he is just that. But in the right time. Everything will be back to normal.

He thanked the cook for the meal and went out, straining his ears to hear if Dara is still causing a ruckus in her room. He doesn't hear any noise now. Maybe, she felt tired and gave up. Is she sleeping then?

His feet led him to her room. After unlocking the door, he slowly pushed the door open, only to find the room empty, the window open and the bed sheet and blanket tied at the bed post, the tied bed sheets almost touching the ground.

“That brat! She still went out!”

:::

Just a Blink of an Eye

Chapter 14

She hailed the coming cab and opened its door, but before she went inside she looked over her shoulder and saw Jiyong coming down trhough the window as well.

She slammed the door shut. "Sir, to Namsan Tower. Can you drive really fast sir? Someone's running after me. Aigoo~~"

The cab driver started the car and sped off, just as she let out her head out of the window. Jiyong stopped running, both of his hands resting on his knees, and kicked an innocent stone lying on the ground. "Byeee~~ Jingyo!!! Who says I can't go out? HAHAHA"

"Yah!!! come back here!!!!!"

::

Jiyong's POV

That woman! I told her it's very dangerous o go anywhere alone but she still did! If she's not killed by those assassins, I'd be the one strangling her to death once I find her.

Now… Where to start? She said something about a restaurant. But what restaurant was it? There are so many restaurants here!!!!!! Gaaaaaaaahhhh!

I don't want to call that pretty boy. He'll just nag and rub it to my face that a woman escaped me, a trained professional.

I have to find her. Now, try to think of what she said.

“Errr? What do you mean bommie?”

Bom! I have to call Bom! I ran back to the mansion and got my phone, dialed Bom's number.

Darn, why isn't she answering the call???!!! >:/

"Hello?" Finally!!!!

"Bom! Where are you?"

"Err~Why I'm with my boyfriend."

"Where's Dara?"

"She's not yet here."

"Where are you? I have to get her back home."

"I'm afraid I can't help you with that! I promise to take care of her while she's with me! Bye Ji!!"

"Bom!!!!! Bom!! Hello???! Bom!!"

Toot- Toot- Toot- Toot- Toot..

I redialed the number once again.

Sorry the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try to call again later.

Grrrr...

I think I have to add Bommie on my ‘To-Kill’ List.

:::

Dara's POV

"Here you go, sir.  Thank you soooo much!" I still have time. Whew! I put on my shades and my cap to hide my face.

So, where do I have to go?? I sent Bommie a text message while on the cab and she said that it's on the fifth floor.

n.Grill, it's her favorite restaurant. Aside from the fun fact that it's revolving, giving you a 360 degrees panoramic view of the capital city of Korea, it also have mouth watering steak courses along with vintage wines.

And seeing that it’s already almost seven in the evening, I’m already so excited to see the view. I don’t know when the last time I dined here was. But I surely am going to have fun tonight.

:::

I crane my neck in search for my friend.

“Hi, Ma’am. Do you have a reservation?” the pretty girl asked me.

“I’m with Park Bom and TOP?” I feel like a fool now. Does she even know Top? Ahh. Of course, why wouldn’t she? Bommie said he is famous as well. But how would I know that? Did she forget that I was in a coma for a few years? Aigoo~

The girl gestured, asking me to follow her. Oh! There they are. Ahh. Bommie looks so beautiful and in love! Now I remember him TOP, the guy from the photoshoot. They look good together!

:::

I thanked the waitress for showing me where my Bommie is. I take off my shades, “Hi! Sorry I’m late. I was held captive by some pirate. Please accept my most sincere apologies…” grinning sheepishly at them.

Bommie chuckled as TOP stood up and acted like a gentleman he is, I sit down beside this very young looking guy, who’s staring at me as soon as I arrive. I stared back, but determined not to be the first one to introduce myself. Do I have some dirt on my face?

“Taecyeon,” TOP said. Both of us looked back at him. He called his friend’s name but he’s eyes is on me. “That’s his name Dara-sshi.”

“Oh. Hi! Nice to meet you!”

“Same here.” he says.

“Are you a model too?” I am really curious. He’s good looking but I don’t see him as a model type.

“Uhm, Fortunately not.” We all laughed at his joke.

“Why fortunately?” Bommie butted in. “I think you’d be great in front of the cam.”

“Well, I don’t want to ruin any cameras.” he said, while chuckling. “But on a serious note, I never wanted to become a model.”

“So how did you become friends with TOP? Are you childhood friends?” I asked.

“Nah. I met him a few years ago in a Movie Awards Ceremony.”

“Oooohhhhh…” I’m impressed. “You’re an actor then?”

“Hmmm, you could say that. But I still need to learn a lot. And Seunghyun here helps me big time.”

“Ha! You don’t need much help anyway. I just sit there and watch you practice. And I’m left astounded.”

Taecyeon shyly scratched his head. “Ahhh. Seunghyun, you’re embarrassing me. I’m not really good.”

“Aigoo~ if my honey bunch says that you’re good, then you must really be. No doubt. But enough of this. I’m hungry already.” she then turned to me, “I hope you don’t mind that we already had some Appetizers while you were not here yet, D.”

“Oh, it’s okay. Bommie. Let’s just have the main course, it’s supper time anyway.”

And as if on cue the waiter served the food. There were Sirloin Steak, Grilled Fish, and wine. We ate in silence with Bommie’s occasional ministrations.

At first, I almost forgot about Jiyong, but as soon as we started on the meal, my mind was invaded again by his words. I am not regretting running away from him. Just imagine how it would be if I’d go here with him. That’d be sooo awkward!

However, I’d really want to spend some time with him. Maybe, he also loves steak like Bommie. Or I could ask him what he wants to eat then, I’d cook for him.

Err~ Scratch that! Why would I cook for him? He freakin’ locked me inside my room.

“They say you’re a good actress…” Taecyeon said, while pouring some wine on my glass. Eh? Was he talking to me?

“Oh, I don’t act anymore since…” I frowned. When did I stop acting? I can’t remember. I just remember that I had to stop acting because someone wanted me to stop. But I couldn’t remember the person as well.

“Since?” he put down the bottle of wine, and sipped a bit from his own glass. I tried to remember it, frowning and biting the side of my inner cheek.

“Hey!” Eh? what’s up with this friend of mine? “I think it’s getting late. We have to give Dara a ride back home. Her husband might kill us if we would not send her back safely.” Bom stood up so suddenly that she almost knocked the chair off backwards.

“You have a husband?” Taecyon looks so surprised.

“No, not that I know of.” I giggled. “But I do have a fiancé”

“Okay... Hon. You don’t have to be in such a haste. It’s just eight in the evening.” TOP said seeing the panic in her face.

“No, we really have to go. Did not you say that you have an important meeting tomorrow with the director of your new movie tomorrow morning?” Bom grabbed her bag and dragged Dara along with her, the two gentlemen trailing behind them.

“What’s up with you Bommie? You did not even finish your favorite steak!” I hissed. “That’s so rude of you. The guys aren’t even finished eating yet.” She did not say anything but just continued heading towards the elevator. TOP already paid the bill as we waited for the lift. It was so awkward being alone with Taecyeon and Bommie.

Why was she suddenly so tensed anyway?

“Hon,” TOP joined as in waiting for the lift. “You promised that you’d go with me tonight right?” he said, wriggling both of his brows at her. But Bommie’s giving him a cold shoulder. “Babe?”

“We have to get Dara home first.” she finally uttered, as the elevator arrived with soft DING. They glided in and waited until they are finally on the ground floor again. Ahhh, I was not even able to enjoy the night time view!! Grrr. This girl.

“Come on, D.” she said, walking towards the exit.

“We don’t need to give her a ride anymore, Honey. Taecyeon here already volunteered, right Taec?”

“Yeah. Sure. Let’s go Dara.” he said, yanking Dara along with him.

:::

Boms POV

“Hey!!!!!!! You can’t! Come back here!” I tugged at Seunghyun’s sleeves. “Babe, we need to get her home. US,” I emphasized pointing at myself, “…not any other guy. It’s too dangerous.”

“It’s okay Babe. He’s my friend. I know him inside out. He’ll take her home safely.” Seunghyun assured me.

“No… no… babe. You don’t know how dangerous it is for her. Even if you trust your friend, we may never know who’s waiting to ambush them.”

He chuckled after hearing what I said. “Was she the daughter’s president to be ambush? Come on Bommie. Don’t worry too much.” Hugging her and light bestowed a kiss on her hair.

No… you don’t understand how complicated her life is… What should I do?

Recap:

"Send the transfer in.” Ms. Jamie told Geun Seok-sunbae.

“My pleasure…” he answered seductively. Omo! Is he subtly flirting with our teacher. Sunbae! Haha. That’s why you push away those girls, you already have someone! Too bad she’s older than you! Fat chance she'd like you back. tsk tsk.

Ms. Jamie even asked him to… send the transfer in… TRANSFER… THE transfer student!

Will I finally meet him???!!!

Someone stepped in. All of our eyes focused on the new student.

=-=-=-=-=-

Saranghaeyo, Oppa

Chapter 4

Or that’s what we thought. It’s Geun Seuk oppa again, acting hesitant and lost, looking around the room as if he hadn’t been here ever.

“Annyeonghasaeyo!” he mumbled shyly, “Geun Seuk ibnida.”

“Jang-sshi. Stop the nonsense already, where’s the transferee?” Ms. Jamie asked, trying not to smile.

He scratched the back of his head. “Mianhe, Seonsaeng-nim. But there isn’t anyone outside.”

“Oh, is that so? Okay just go back to your class then.” He bowed and retreated, but not before winking at the girl seating in front. “Jang-sshi.” Ms. Jamie’s voice held warning.

“Yes... Yes... I’ll go ahead, Ma’am.” Then he disappeared through the door.

She, then, turned to address us. “Go to your respective groups, people.”

There were shuffling of chairs and excited mumbling amongst the students as they made their way to where they usually sit.

“Ready, to listen everyone?” Ms. Jamie asked us once every one of us is already seated. Murmurs of accent spread within the four corners of the classroom. “Okay, this is what you want to do.”

Well, that leaves us no choice but to do it, neh?

=-=--=-=-=

Ugh. I thought I’d finally meet my prince. Unfortunately, he decided to make a detour, or maybe a stop over?, before enjoying my presence. J

Our English class had just ended yet our new classmate isn’t here yet. =_= When are you going to let me see you again? >.<

Maybe, Ms. Jamie knows where he is? Right, I’d ask her.

I hastily ran after our English teacher. “Ms. Jam!!” I called out her nickname.

 “Yes, Dara? Something wrong?”

“Ma’am, you said we have a new classmate! Where is he now?”

“He?”

“Yes, I saw him this morning and also you said that you’d introduce him to us?”

“I am not sure about that. Maybe, the transferee will be introduced by your new teacher. If you’d go back to your room now, I guess, you’d see HIM yourself.”

“Yes, Ma’am!” I saluted to my favorite English teacher then skipped back to our room. I looked around but he’s not yet there. So I decided to just go to my seat and wait for the new teacher like a very good student.

Ha! Who am I kidding? I am not waiting for the new teacher at all. I have been watching both doors of the classroom for the transferee student. Not because of the new teacher.

Bommie was laughing at me for every time someone enters the room, my head would turn to it’s direction as fast as a whirlwind. But no new student appeared.

And our new Music Teacher is late, too!! Ahh.. not a good first impression sir!

Someone entered the room but I already got tired of looking around every time the door opens. Maybe, he already went home and thought of starting going to his classes tomorrow. I shrugged.

The girls in front of us were all looking at the back row, pointing at someone, and then giggled nonstop. Why are girls so giggly anyways?

Oh! I am a girl as well! Haha. Only, I am not as giggly as they are. Only a little. Tee hee.

One of the girls, MinNa, who looked like she put all her face powder on her face, whispered to her friend, “He’s so cute!”

Let’s just say that that MinNa finds every boy in our class cute. Seriously! Even the most hideous face in the class, she’d probably say “You’re so cute~” he girl had no taste at all.

“Tell me what you think about our new teacher, Dara.” YuJin, the girl seating at my left side, asked. She had this short curly hair, big brown eyes, and pouty lips. She excels in acting and loves studying. She’s a friend but I am not as close to her as I am with Bommie, CL and Minki.

“The Music Teacher? I don’t know. Haven’t seen her yet. Why?”

“Do you think He’s as good as our previous Teacher?”

“He should be. But I doubt it. Our previous Music teacher is the best Music Teacher we’ve had had so far. But of course, we may never know. We haven’t met him yet so let us not be hasty and be judgmental.”

“Speaking of the new teacher, Only thirty minutes left and he is not here yet. He’s not setting aright example to his students.”

It is not only YuJin, Bommie and I who are talking right now. All students must have thought that the teacher won’t be seeing us today so now they dragged their chairs to face their friends and chatted away. Some are even playing around and some are throwing balls of paper to each other. Very mature, indeed.

Every one is talking at the same time, that my head now starts to ache and the atmosphere gets hotter. My eyes started to scan the room, same old same old classmates. I know them all one by one, that even if you ask me to be blindfolded I could still recognize them.

I turned around to see the students back row. Yes, all the same… SuJin, the beautiful and intelligent girl I love so much. She once told me in our English class that she wanted to be a teacher like her Phone English Teacher. She looks up to her so much. She also studied in USA when she was younger that’s why she’s very fluent in speaking the language. Ji Yoon, her best friend, wants to be a fashion expert. She likes dressing up and absolutely adores high heeled footwear.

Next to them are JaeYoung and JaeSeong, the twins, who are a total opposite of each other. JaeYoung likes Music and performing in front of everyone. He’s a total charmer. Not that I’m saying JaeSeong is not, it’s just that, JaeSeong excels more in serious subjects like Economics and Politics. He is also the Junior Editor of the school paper.

And…

I catch my breath as my brain registered who’s sitting beside JaeSeong. He was just there, sitting quietly, absorbing everyone and smiling back at people who smiles back at him. He just sat there silently, just like me awhile ago, scanning the room. But I guess for him, he is trying to familiarize himself with every one.

His blonde hair slightly covering his right eye, his eyes continuously moving and searching until it settled at me. Wait. He’s staring at me!

I pretended to be so engrossed in studying the ceiling. Ahhh. What a beautiful ceiling we have here. I was even tempted to complete my pretention by whistling and nodding my head, but decided against it.

Gosh! He surely thinks I am a weirdo now! Aigooo~~

 I stole a glance at him again and he is still looking at me. I tried to hide my blushing face using my hair. “Yah! Dara. Are you listening to me?”

“Huh?”

“I said I think the new student is here already.”

“Yeah. I saw him.”

“Aigggoo~ Are you blushing? Waaah. Dara-yah is blushing. I thought I’d never see this day.” Bommie hugged me tightly.

“Ahem”

But all of us are still into our conversations, me trying not to die because of Bom’s death hug.

“Ahem… ahem…” every one looked at the back. The new student was standing now confidently at the back. He walked towards the front and erased the writings my other classmates wrote on the chalk board. He did it very slowly, with easy but sure up and down stroke. We just sat there watching him clean the board.

None of us dared to speak for this new transferee is really acting weird. Why was he even erasing the writings? How weird. But it’s okay. I love him nonetheless. Gaaahhh.... He is sooo hot!

He put down the eraser and wrote something on the board.

“Kwon Jiyong” it says.

He faced us this time with a very bright smile. “That’s my name.” he said.

Kyahh~~~ So cool!! He even speaks English very well!

“So what?” Seung-jo, my ever bully classmate, sneered. “What do we care about your name? We did not ask for it.”

“Yah!” woops. Was that me?

“What? Princess? Don’t tell me you like that stick boy.”

“So what if I like him? He’s so much good looking than you anyway. Apologize at once. That’s not a very good attitude you’re showing the new transferee.”

“But…”

“No buts Seung-jo sshi. Apologize.”

“I’m sorry.” Although he uttered it like he would die saying it.

Kwon Jiyong cleared his throat once again. “Well, that was very… nice of you Ms. Princess?

“Sandara” I chirped. “My name is Sandara but just call me Dara.” Grinning at him.

“I see. Well, thank you very much for your gallantry, Princess. How ironic that a princess now saves a prince, isn’t it?” earning a chuckle from everyone. “But I apologize for not introducing myself as soon as I entered the classroom. I just wanted to observe everyone here. As I was saying, before Seung-jo sshi here interrupted me, my name is Kwon Jiyong.

“And I am your new Music Teacher from today.”

Chapter 3: Part2

By: midorinohime

"I don't really see why we have to bother going to YG sunbae-nim just for this." Chaerin huffed. The two Seunghyuns and Dae picked them up and they are now headed to the YGE building.

"Will you shut up, chaerin? Goodness, Aren't you worried about your Unnie?" Seungri surely understood why Chaerin is acting like this but he just could not believe that his Dara noona would ever do such a thing. Somehow, he still wanted to pretend all of this is not happening.

Chaerin scoffed, "Why would I be worried about her? She's the one who voluntarily left the house. She wasn't thrown out."

"So what? All of those years you've been together? Will you just throw all of those away? "

"She's not what we thought she is! That's why! Yes! I am willing to do just that."

Seungri wanted to retort back but the older Seunghyun stopped him from doing so, "Lee Seunghyun, that's enough. You too, chaerin. Stop complaining. Whether you like it or not. We need to tell sunbae about this. Dara is still part of 2ne1 and you still have projects needed to be done."

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-

"Aren't you going to look for her?" Young Bae sat down beside his best friend.

"I want to..." Jiyong admitted. Young Bae and him always try to tell each other everything. "I badly wanted to go look for her, but everything that had happened, all of it keeps replaying on my mind. It pains me to think that after all those things that she had done; I can't find myself to hate her. I just..." he stopped and closed his eyes, inhaling a lungful of air. "I just want to have her back here with me."

"Then go do it."

"I can't and I won't. I only have my pride left, and I am not that stupid to go look for her."

"Will your pride make you happy? Will it give you back what you have lost?"  He did not answer. Hell, he didn't know how to answer that. Young Bae patted his back and got up. But before he left Jiyong, he left him something to ponder on. "Dara isn't that type of girl. And you know that. Now, it's up to you if you'd believe the drama she's trying to build here or try to see what she's trying to hide."

He headed towards the door. "She loves you. Those brown eyes would never lie..." and he shut the door behind him leaving Jiyong to think.

True enough. Dara. She had continued to love him even though he had an affair with that girl. All of those news about his affair surely killed her inside but she still stood her ground and stayed by his side.

Was it his fault then that he did not do all he can to stay with her?

“Where’s Dara?” he had asked her manager. They had just finished filming his new music video and he wanted to go see her right away. She had been so aloof these past few days that he’s starting to worry.

“In the dressing room, jiyong. But don’t go inside yet. She’s probably preparing for her next photoshoot.”

He ignored her manager and went straight to where her dressing room is. On his way, he recognized some people he might have met before. He had politely talk to them and bid his goodbye.

He did not bother to knock before opening the door. He always does that. Only today, he wished he did.

He wanted to turn around and run away, pretend that he did not see his girlfriend making out with another guy. The two was so into each other that they did not realize he was there.

Every muscle in his body was aching to beat the guy to death and strangle his girl. He could not bear to see another guy pleasuring her, touching her, kissing her. He wanted to beat the crap out of him.

Joong Ki looked up just in time to see him storming towards them. And before his brain could process what’s happening, Jiyong was already throwing blows after blows at him.

“Jiyong stop it! Stop!” Dara tried to stop him from killing Joong Ki.  “I said stop it!” she pushed him away and went to Joong Ki’s side. “Are you okay?”

“I’m fine. It’s fine. Dara.”

“I’m sorry; could you please leave us for a second?” He did not look at Jiyong at all but just went out. People are now aware of what had just happened, Some are trying to act as if nothing’s really happening but some of them gathered near the doorway just to hear what the commotion is about.

“Why, Dee? Why did you do this?” His blonde hair covering his eyes.

“Because I am bored.”

He shut the door and locked it. “What? Bored?”

“Yes, I am bored. These,” she smiled bitterly and gestured her arms around the room. “All of this is boring. I’m so fed up with being THE Sandara Park. I don’t want this anymore. I am bored with this life; I’m bored with being a singer an actress a model. I am bored being with you.”

Was he that slow? He couldn’t understand a word that she says. What does she mean by that? He went here to settle things with her. He knew that she’s growing farther and farther away from him, but he did not realize that this is going to happen that fast.. For once, he wanted to shout “STOP!!” and take everything slowly.

“Dara..”

“I don’t want to do this anymore…”

“Dee,” he let out a nervous laugh. “You don’t mean that, do you? No… no... Stop joking around…”

“I am serious.” He shook his head, trying to deny what he’s hearing from his girl. What did he do? What did he do to lose her? To make her push him away?

“Dee-ah…”she grabbled her purse, lying innocently on the table. “Did you even love me?” he bit back the tears threatening to fall. “Even just for a moment? Even just a bit? Did you love me?”

She faced him and stepped closer to him then smiled bitterly. “No.”

And wit that, she left him.

Would it be right if he had tried to run after her, beg her to not leave him, ask her to stay and promise to be what she wanted him to be? To be a better partner?

He should have done everything he could, just to be with her. Heck, he would even announce to all people that they are together if that is what she wants. But he did not.

One of the reasons might be the shock he felt after seeing his girlfriend making out with another guy. And not just a simple guy out there. But a famous one as well.

Song Joong Ki. You just wish we don’t cross paths. For I don’t know what I will do once that happens. Just thinking his name makes him want to kick the wits out of him.

To beat him ‘till he says no more. Till he beg him to stop.

But what Young Bae told him made him think about their situation. The Dara he knows wouldn’t dare do that. She’s… she’s an angel... a true angel… and what she’s doing right now is clearly not her.

He fished his mobile phone inside his pocket and dialed a number. He waited and waited until someone answered the phone.

“Yeoboseyo?”

“Sang Hyun, this Ji- hyung.”

“Hyung!! I was just about to call you good thing you did! Wazzup?”

“Where are you?”

“I’m at the airport. I just arrived from Japan. You won’t believe it hyung, everyone’s support there is awesome. I officially love Japanese people now. And…”

“Did your noona call you already?”

“Uhm.. not yet.. Aren’t you with her? I thought you’re planning to move in together at your new house?”

“Huh? When did she..”

“Well, she called me like, I think two weeks ago and she started bombarding me with her tales about you and her living together in the new house you bought. She was really excited. Haha. Hyung! Don’t make her cry okay?! You’ll regret it of you would!”

Jiyong laughed bitterly. “I hurt her? No, I would never do that again. I never want to see her in a state she once had been. It’s quite ironical that you are telling me that…”

“Eh??? Wait a second hyung…” he heard him scream at his bandmates. Then he’s back with him. “I’m back. What do you mean hyung? Ironic.”

“Me hurting your sister.”

“Is something wrong hyung? Why did you call anyway?”

“ Your sister…”

“What happened to her??!” He can hear the panic in his voice.

“We need to talk. Can you squeeze me in your schedule, bro?”

“Hyung, can’t you just tell me now? I’m getting worried..”

“Where can I meet you?” he insisted.

“I’ll go there at your apartment.” He finally conceded.

“Okay. I’ll wait for you.”

Recap:

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!!"


=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=


Normal POV

Bright lights of different colors shoot from everywhere. It was as if colored laser beams were being fired from all corners of the club. Four girls stood motionless on stage, their backs facing the audience. Lights dimmed minutes ago but were replaced with black lights making the four girls stand out with their white clothing.  They were like statues, not moving a single muscle.

Then the music started playing. It was a familiar sound, a song that was once performed by their seniors. One by one, the girls started moving, their moves, smooth and fierce matching the upbeat rhythm and sound of the song.

Their voices, though uniquely different from one another, set the club into dancing and partying. They were owned. And they know it. Their performance was short-lived but it was the kind of performance which left everyone who witnessed it breathless and in awe.

Even on their way home, people are still talking about the new group. However, they were so mysterious, no one ever got to see their faces. But surely their voices and performance were remembered as strong and soft as the same time. All they know about them is that they are from YG and surely this talent being kept in secret will definitely be conquering the entertainment industry of Korea, maybe even Japan.

So the question is, who are they?

“Hyung!! You said you are going to introduce the new group to us! Not leave us wanting for more… more information about them and definitely more performances.” the boys who felt the same thing as the audience moments ago stride to catch up with their president.

“Yes, I am going to introduce them to all of you but not to other people, Jiyong. I want them to anticipate the new group. Spread the news about them but without any other information known about the new girl group.”

“So you’ll really introduce them to us?” Seunghyun asked.

“Yes.”

“Where did you find them, sunbae? They’re so fierce. I almost got goosebumps watching them. I suddenly felt afraid of performing after them.” This time, it was Daesung.

“They still have lots of things to improve. And they look up to all of you. You are their sunbaes so try to help them every time you see they need it.”

“Neh, sunbae! That’s why we are family…” Taeyang answered, while the other nodded in agreement.

“Where’s Chloe?”

“Oh, she said she’ll be waiting at your office with her Dad.”

“Go to the practice room, you all, and wait for me their. I’ll just see Chloe and her Dad.”

“How about the…”

“Just wait there. Go.. go.. go..” he ordered. The boys couldn’t do anything anymore but follow him.

“We have our own girl group Noonas and Dongsaeng!!!!! Whoooooohoooooo!!!” Seungri screamed as soon as Hyun Seuk was out of earshot.

The boys killed their time waiting for their president by talking about the new addition to their family. How different the voices of the four girls are but still match. They couldn’t talk about their appearance since they were left clueless and in the dark. Because of the dim lights during the performance, they weren’t able to see their faces. Just like the difference in their voices, their bodily curves are also different. That they were able to notice since the clothing they were wearing during the performance hugged their bodies quite good, revealing their natural curves.

A knock disturbed their discussions and all their heads turned to look at the now slowly opening door of the training room. All of them expecting to see new faces, only to be disappointed.

“Annyeong!!” PSY and Gummy entered the room together with Dongwook.

“Ahh.. Hyung! Noona!” why you here? We thought …”

“What? That we are the new girl group?” Gummy chuckled and ruffled Seungri’s hair. “Sunbae asked us to go here as well. They were spectacular right?”

“Have you seen them?” Young Bae asked.

“Nope, this is also the first time I am going to see them. But I think Hye Sun and In Na know one of the girls. They said that she, that girl, undergone acting workshops with them.”

“Really? Where are they?” Seunghyun looked at the closed door, probably expecting Hye Sun and In Na to materialize before them that moment.

“They are not here. Hye Sun is filming a new commercial and In Na is still on her way here from her Photo Shoot.”

“Is that so?”

“But they told me what she is like.”

“What?”

“Well, they said that she’s a child at heart and an angel.” Everyone smiled at that, but did not say anything. Gummy took that as a sign to continue talking about this one member. “She is pretty, they say. And that she does not have the most powerful voice but you’ll like it nonetheless.”

Then YG came with Chloe and her Dad. “They are on their way here. Where are the others? The dancers and the trainees as well. Call them up here.”

Se7en volunteered to go look for the rest of the YG artists, claiming that Byul is downstairs and he needed to pick her up.

“I’ll be back right away…” he said, as he closed the door.

Jiyong’s POV

I don’t know but every minute that passes by, I feel so fidgety and restless. Was it because of the tension and excitement going inside the room? Or maybe because Chloe had been continuously stealing glances in my direction. Another might be because her dad is teasing me to marry her already just a moment ago.

I told him that we already broke up, but he said that he still wants me to be his son-in-law.  Maybe I should ask someone to act as my new girlfriend so they would not bother me anymore about Chloe. I seriously wanted to do that now just to show them that there is no chance anymore between us.

She’s beautiful and I know that she’ll find the right guy for her. That right guy, clearly, isn’t me.

Change topic. Where are those girls? They shouldn’t keep their Sunbaes waiting this long. Since they are new, I will not nag them about it yet.

So one of them wants to be an actress as well? She should focus on one thing first. If she wants to be a singer, she should strive to become a good one first before going to be an artist.

I did not realize that three new faces already joined us in the room.

“Where’s Dara?” Hyun Seuk hyung questioned them.

“She’s with In Na Unnie, sunbae. They just went to the rest room.” Said the girl with unbelievably small eyes, it could rival Dae’s and Young Baes.

“Okay, while we are waiting for her and In Na. You go start introduce yourselves to your sunbaes.”

“Annyeonhasaeyo,” she bowed to all directions, showing respect to all of us. “Nae ileum eun chae lin ibnida.” Then she smiled and spoke in English. “You can call me CL for short. I’m the leader of the group.” and bowed once again.

The girl next to her introduced herself as Bom, she’s beautiful and stunning and claimed to be the vocal of the group.  She’s also the oldest and pointed out that the girl next to her was the youngest.

“Neh, Minzy ibnida.” She shyly bowed and looked at the closed door.

“Sorry, Dara slipped on our way here. In Na Unnie just arrived by that time and saw what happened she dragged her away with her.” Bom said, after a while.

“Is that so? Is she okay?” I found myself asking.

“Yes,” although she said yes, her face shows that she’s worried. “She’s always the clumsy one among us.”

“Oh. I take it she’s also the one who delayed your performance yesterday?” why am I being inquisitive today.

“Yes, but it’s not really her fault. She asked me to put her passport inside her handbag but I forgot to do so. She thought I did so she panicked when she did not see it in there. She thought she lost it.”

“That’s carelessness.”

“Jiyong!” Seung Hyun hyung exclaimed beside me, looking as if he is seeing me for the very first time. He shook his head and froze on the spot when he looked up.

I followed where his eyes are staring at.

There, with In Na Noona, was a petite girl wearing a simple skirt and a printed top blouse. Her left knee was bandaged, probably because she scraped it when she fell. Her eyes bore on me, like she wanted to spit fire on me. Wait. Did I just see her glare at me..? But when I looked back she has this shy smile and apologetic look on her face.

Must be a trick of light. Yes. That must be it.

“I am so sorry for being late.” Her voice… it sounds like… it’s similar… to. No, couldn’t be. She’s just a pigment of my imagination. I laughed.

She looked at me, and there it goes again. She looks like she wanted to retaliate. “What?” I asked, but before she could answer me back hyung beat her to it.

“Don’t worry, Bom here already explained what happened.”

“Oh… But I really am sorry.” She bowed and spoke in a very small voice, “My name is Dara… I am our groups clown!” She cheerfully stated and joined the group.

“We are glad to see all of our Sunbaes, please take care of us!!” they chorused.

“Wait, what do you call yourselves again?” Seungri asked. “They call you the 21^st new evolution or something…”

“No, sunbae.” CL smirked at him and motioned to girls. “We’re…”

“2ne1!!”
