Just a Blink of an Eye

Chapter 5

There was someone knocking on the door and that person is so persistent. Durami is trying her best to make her Unnie look pretty.

"Just open it already. It's not locked." she called over her shoulder, still continuing putting her unnie's light make. Her unnie does not need much anyway. Gah! She would still look pretty even if she won't wear one. Sigh.



Their father is planning something and she thinks that their mother is also a part of that scheme. But she wouldn't dare contradict them. She just felt so bad for her sister. She does not deserve this.

As of now, she would just sit and watch what their father had planned for her sister but if she felt that their dad is going too far, maybe she has to do something about it.

"Madam, your father is already waiting downstairs with your visitors."

"ah, really? Please tell them that will be down in a minute."

"Durami, what do you know about my fiancé?"

Crap! This is what she's been dreading all this time with her. She didn't know who her fiancé is (well, her sister' fiancé according their father that is). Not even his name! What should she tell her?

"Durami..."

"Unnie, I won't be able to finish dolling you up if you won't quit talking." brilliant! Just brilliant.

"Oh, sorry..." Her sister is one of the sweetest angels born here on earth. That she's quite sure of. She's so sweet, kind, thoughtful, caring, she's everyone's ideal girl, and she’s the best sister to them and a very obedient daughter.

Well, that was before she met oppa. Their parents did not approve of them. They are so in love and Dara just couldn't deal with what their parents are trying to force her to do.

That was the time when her sister ran away. They never heard any news about her after she ran away.

And since her sister is quite famous, everyone is curious as to where the YEOSIN's goddess had gone.

There were so many rumors spreading so their parents decided to just tell the public that Dara needed to take a vacation for some time.

They were all aware that Dara is very fragile. She's like a very expensive figurine, elegant and beautiful beyond comparison but if you did not handle her with utmost care, she'll probably be broken.

The people believed their parents. After all, why would parents lie about the whereabouts of their child?

After a few months, they received a call from a hospital saying that Dara has been in a car accident and that she's in a very critical condition.

Durami's thoughts were interrupted again by her sister.

"Yah. Durami, I think we have to go now. It's not nice to keep them waiting..."

"Ah, yeah..."

"Why are you crying?!"

Durami did not realize that tears are already threatening to fall from her eyes. "Oh, nothing Unnie, I just remembered a really sad story I was reading last night." she said as she wipe her eyes with her left hand. "Let's go."

"That must be a very sad story..." Dara murmured as they hand in hand stepped out of her quarters.

"Yes it is, I just wished that it was not yours..." she shispered to herself, good thing, dara did not hear her.

********

Dara nervously walked in the dining room with her sister trailing her steps. The visitors were already sitting comfortably and having engaging conversation with their father.

She could not see them for they are sitting with their back facing the entrance of the dining room.

Insu sensed their presence and stopped talking. The visitors must have been very curious as to why In su stopped talking. One of them suddenly stood up and slowly faced the two girls.

The other four gentlemen followed suit. They were so amazingly good looking. But one guy particularly the one who stood up first caught her attention.

Dara thought that he's the most handsome among them and that he almost looked like a demi-god. His eyes holding her gaze, his skin as pale as a vampire's, his stature manly and prim and his smile...

"Dara?" Insu called out to his daughter. She heard their mother giggled who's actually sitting just beside their father. What kind of mother giggles more than her child? Duh, they are so obvious, Durami thought.

"Dear? Are you okay?" she said with a knowing smile.

Although she felt so embarrassed, she still smiled her sweetest and proceeded to walk towards the empty love couch.

They were still all standing when Insu spoke once again. "So, here are our princesses. I thought you were held captive by a dragon somewhere. I was about to send your prince here to save you..."

'Dragon?' she thought. 'Father, really. Be more creative!'. But being held captive by a dragon sounded so appealing to her. Must be going crazy, she thought.

"Please take your sit gentlemen. ladies.."

"As you all know, Dara still can't remember much so I am afraid that she would not really know any of you yet."

"It's okay sir, we understand. Actually, the four of us just accompanied our friend here. We have to go now or our manager will skin us alive."

"Is that so? Hmmm. Hit the road then. You are always welcome here in our humble home." Soo Min said. "Honey, Durami can you please accompany our guests..."

"Sure dearest, come on knights," he said. When Durami did not follow, he called her once more. "Durami?"

"But Dara-unnie is..."

"It's okay honey, your sister is here with her prince. Nothing to worry about..." Soo Min stated firmly.

"But..."

"Come on now girl..." her father said as he drag her out of the room.

"Oh, I need to go to the kitchens and prepare our snack. Just a moment..."

Silence. 

Dara did not know what to say. She does not even know who this man is. If one wanted to create a conversation, they need to at least know something abut the other. Granted that she can ask questions but she usally is a very quiet person to people whom she does not know yet.

The 'prince' faked a cough. "Hi... I am Jaejoong... your fiance."
