10Pm
Dara gasped with the message that had just entered into her mobile notification. The name of the sender of the message, the person who is seizing his mind at this time.
From: Kwon Jiyong
Meet at the cafe in Gangnam
There were no pleasantries or anything else, the man was straight at the point that Jiyong wanted to convey. After all Dara also did not expect pleasantries from the man.
Dara's gaze again circled towards the crowded streets, many people passed by. He then took a deep breath and exhaled violently, watching him back on the phone he had been camping to type a reply.
To: Kwon Jiyong
Yes, tell me the place and the clock.
Send~~~
After sending a reply to Jiyong, Dara re-inserted her mobile phone into the pocket of the coat she was wearing. Return to the steps to walk to the boutique.
Dara has not yet returned to the hospital, a while ago her mother contacted her via Jo Won's cell phone, Kyung Ran said if Dara needed time, then the girl can come back tomorrow morning and Dara will not waste the opportunity, she really needs to be alone to think a lot.
Dara who just finished buying soft drinks from the super market which is not far from her boutique. Walking very slowly, enjoying the gusts of the night wind that accompanied each inch of his steps, the girl occasionally raised her gaze to the dark night sky, the dark sky really represents his feelings now, the, he was still confused as to what step.
Honestly since Bomb came home, Dara has not started thinking about what he will do, he was busy calming himself so as not to be depressed, so the decision he took later was not all the mood. Keeping the mood makes it slower to think.
In silence the girl continued in her footsteps, passing through the night streets that were not getting quieter, Gangnam really never slept, the city that was getting real at night. The crowd that did not also make Dara really live, no matter how heavy the burden that he bears to the frenetic hustle of Gangnam's beautiful crowd is not able to arouse his gaze to slightly look forward with an upright.

“You're going there Ji?”
“He needs to meet, Hyung”
“With such circumstances?” Top looked at Jiyong's already messy makeup, the out-of-shape shirt and don't forget the pungent smell of alcohol from the two of them.
“You will be with me, Hyung” Reply Jiyong after tidying up the folds of his shirt sleeves.
They were standing in front of Jiyong's car parked in the basemant bar they were visiting.
Mask grunting as good as “Not knowing yourself.” Her lips.
“Let me drive.” Jiyong walked first towards the steering wheel but Top immediately held her back.
“Let me alone, your condition is more unstable.” After saying that, Top immediately took over the steering chair and let Jiyong shake his head slowly due to Seunghyun's attitude.
“Why should it be this hour? You can see him tomorrow, right?” Oceh Top when Jiyong was already sitting in the side seat.
“My schedule is full Hyung and again, the media will be very excited later” Sahut Jiyong lazy.
“After all they already know.” Top Fizz
“At least there will be no other news, I'm dizzy with the ravings of media.” Reply Jiyong indifferently.
Top-driving cars already darting down the highway joining other cars speeding up at a moderate pace, the two men will head to Itaewon for a business meeting.
On the way no one spoke, Top was focusing on driving while Jiyong was leaning on the seat with his eyes closed, the man was not asleep but was busy with his own mind.
“Team Daesung will come with me tomorrow.” Said Top when the car stopped because of the red sign.
“Hm.”
“Tck, will you be there under these conditions?” Seunghyun was completely inexhaustible with Jiyong.
“Who cares? ” reply Jiyong don't care.
“You're right, they'll just understand you. ” Top grinned amusedly.
“I want one more team.” Jiyong shouted suddenly.
Top return car then casually ask “New unit?”
“No, I think the girl will need people to protect her from curious creatures. Take it from your team, Daesung and Seungri” team Still closed their eyes Jiyong replied.
Top nodded in understanding, he knew where Jiyong was going. Is that guy going to approve Gi Ran's request ? that's what spins in the brain Top “You'll receive it?” Top smiled a little because of that.
Well, Top thinks the problems that Jiyong is facing will lead the man on the real road, the idea of marriage that Jiyong said earlier is good news for Top. Seunghyun felt positive things were coming to her boss, her feelings were so strong.
“I don't know, just keep watch” Sahut Jiyong relax.
“Will I notify them.”
“Oh yes Ji, can I borrow your apartment today?”
“Hm, just wear it. I'm going home to Mom.”
“That woman has been at my apartment, crazy!” The mask snorted.
I want to feel Jiyong responded to the incident that had happened to Top several times, but he was too tired so he just smiled faintly to respond, still with his eyes closed of course.
Top is magical, the man with the charm always has a story behind the women who pursue it aggressively and fairly recklessly.

“Master is inside, Mr. Kwon.” A man who was still dressed neatly in a black suit greeted Jiyong and Seunghyun in a friendly manner. The young man then directed his two guests to enter the room which seemed to have been rented before.
A closed room in one of the luxury bars awaits two new men, Jiyong enters the enclosed room with Seunghyun escorting her.
“Mr Kwon.” A middle-aged man greeted his two guests warmly.
Jiyong and Seunghyun immediately greeted with a slight bow towards the middle-aged man. “Sorry we are late” Jiyong said to two people who were waiting for them, a couple.
The middle-aged man again smiled warmly, not middle-aged in fact, just adrift in age quite far from Jiyong and Top. “No problem, my wife and I have just arrived, sit down."
“Sorry to trouble you again.” Choi Siwon then poured the wine on the table into the glass owned by Jiyong and Seunghyun alternately.
“No problem, what do you need?” reply Jiyong directly to the Point that they will discuss.
“All the details have been sent to Youngbae, I just want to meet you officially, after all the help you gave. ” The man who is known to be running for president raised his glass that has been filled with wine, giving code to Jiyong and Seunghyun to lift their glasses.
The three glasses that contained the drink also clashed with each other slowly, giving rise to a beautiful twinkling sound, making a woman who was the same age as Siwon smile meaningfully. “Whatever will happen, my husband and I will never forget your kindness.” Choi Eun Sun, Choi Siwon's life partner.
“This few weeks, it might be a little difficult to greet each other directly, but you can send the data to Youngbae, I will read it.” Jiyong said after gulping down her wine.
Siwon nodded in understanding that “Teamku will make a visit tomorrow morning to Ilsan.”
That's how they started a pretty heavy talk at the end of a dark night, Seunghyun and Jiyong were enjoying session two drinks at night while listening to every sentence Mr. Choi said.
It all started when Jiyong's father took his son to a dinner party, where Kwon Young Hwan introduced Jiyong to his good friend Choi Siwon. Jiyong knows Choi Siwon well, until their meeting intensifies after the incident that made Jiyong angry, the death of his father. Events where part of the world is lost, events that make the man full of resentment and anger are held back, a sense that makes Jiyong finally want to dabble in the world of politics that he really does not want, the goal is still pseudo between revenge or indeed to continue the gait of the father.

Already three cans of soda Dara spent to accompany her night, looking for her own thoughts turned out not to be as easy as she imagined. Other people just come in and interfere, making the decision can not just be ended.
“HUH.” No matter how many times rough breathing out in this dim room and several times also he scrambled his long hair to mess.
The girl's gaze returned to the picture frame at her work desk, a middle-aged woman who was laughing loosely, the woman Dara loved. “You will be calm and happy after I do that?” His whisper very softly.
Then the trajectory after trajectory of the shadow about the past began to twist clearly in the mind of the girl, the shadow of someone yelling at and hitting her, he said, the shadow of a woman who ran and hugged him tightly and there were still many dark shadows that made her tears accidentally fall just like that.
Dara shed her tears in silence “All things to make up for your pain, Bu.” Dara's tone was very weak, she folded her hands on the table and buried her head there.
Kwon Jiyong, he did not know the man, at all! The cold-faced man who looked like a gangster, he was not sure of the man but the Mother surprisingly chose the man. The thing that Dara did not understand was, if Jo Won, his younger brother who was classified as uncomfortable with others, could be so easy to say hello to Jiyong with the name Hyung. The world is truly magical and that is what makes Dara more and more anxious with her mind.
Especially with the incident this morning in the Church also twisted in his brain, can he find his own mind today amid the many worries and feelings that do not edge.
Dara scratched her head, looked straight at her mother's picture frame, see the beautiful eyes of the girl is still damp with the rest of the tears around her “I will not disappoint you” he said.

7AM
Will the world side with those who seek happiness for others? or will the world come back to play with those who are willing to hurt themselves ? I know the world is not that bad! - LIGHTINTHEDARKNESS
The clear sky welcomes every creature who starts doing their morning activities, clean air with a cool breeze that drops yellow maple leaves, autumn is so perfect with nuances like this.
There were already many people passing by on the sidewalk that was right in front of Dara's boutique, but the girl did not also budge and just sat behind the cashier's desk, but she was not, check every detail of data that is on the flat screen in front of him.
“Unnie.” The enthusiastic voice of the long-serving beautiful girl really grabbed Dara's attention.
“Hey, you're not in school?” Reply Dara while looking at the girl he used to greet Lisa, the girl was not wearing a uniform.
“Jam nine, so I stopped by here. You must not have had breakfast.” Lisa cried while showing off a paper bag containing the food she brought.
“You know I'm here? You're not wearing Lisa's uniform.” Reply Dara began to approach the girl who was two years younger than him.
“Boomie Unnie sent me a message last night. Relax, I brought a change of clothes. ” Lisa then put the food she brought on the side of a slightly empty room and sat on the floor.
Dara nodded in understanding, her best friend really knows best. “Jisoo still has exams and Hyoni will come later in the afternoon. This afternoon I also have to go back to the hospital.” Dara sat down with Lisa. “While let the boutique close first.” Continue Dara with a view circulating on the rows of clothes neatly displayed in this room.
“I'll just collect some Unnie assignments and presences, around lunchtime I'm back. So you can still open this afternoon. ” Lisa's proposal while arranging the food she brought.
“You will deal alone?” Ask Dara.
“Yes, are you doubting me Unnie? The package that you complained about yesterday, my time cannot be like you.” Reply Lisa convincingly makes Dara giggle amused, Lisa is really a chatty girl.
“Alright, the online package that entered yesterday has been picked up by the courier this morning.” Dara took a cup containing the drink Lisa brought and drank it slowly. “Susu?” he looked at Lisa.
“You cannot drink Unnie.” coffee Lisa reminded.
Lisa knows Dara well, she is also so close to Dara even though Dara rarely tells Lisa her life complaints, but Lisa slalu tells Unnienya about anything, Dara already considers those who work with her as brothers and does not discriminate them, which is why their relationship is closely intertwined.
“How was your test?” Dara receives the chopsticks given by Lisa.
“Currently because the teacher watching me is handsome.” The savory girl with the cross-faced face made Dara shake her head slowly, she wanted to answer a silly statement from Lisa, but a voice caught the attention of both of them.
“Darong.” No matter how the story Jo Won suddenly appears and enters Dara and Lisa.
Lisa who returned to see Jo Won after a long time was made gaping by the young teenager's makeup. “Jo Won” is down
“Hey, why are you here? Who's looking after mom?” Dara hurriedly got up to approach her younger brother.
“Aunt Gi was there and Mom asked me to look at you.” Reply Jo Won casually, the teenager's view turned to Lisa who was observing him “Hi Lisa”.
Lisa and Jo Won have met before and they already know, no! Not that far, just getting to know each other. “During didn't see you.”
Dara observes Jo Won who is in touch with Lisa, the girl's mind drifts back to reality if tonight she has to meet with Jiyong, ah her mood is cloudy again.
“I also bring food.” Jo Won puts the paper bag he brought in front of Lisa, making one of their meals.
“Because, you're listening to me, right?" Repeated Jo Won who saw her Dara not expression at all, the girl still stood in silence.
“Unnie let's eat, I'm laparr.” Lisa's rant made Dara gasp because of the loud noise.
“Yes! You brought me Jo's coffee? ” Dara sat down facing them.
“I don't want to torture you, Sandara.” Reply Jo Won then sipped the drink he brought.
Dara observed the two boys of that age with an inexplicable look, between being moved and upset, Dara also had no intention of asking the two boys another question again, either, he chose to immediately enjoy the food brought by Lisa and Jo Won.
Dara has to restore her mood by eating, her mood is bad because of the reality she has to face today, Gi Ran who returned to visit her mother and the fact that she has to meet with Jiyong tonight. Take my side today, Dara.
