Do you also feel that time is so fast passing, when only slow is what you really want. Is the world really like that, giving people things that are actually against desire. Or is it really one of the ways of the universe, to show its power, that it is an answer to what man doubts - LIGHTINTHEDARKNESS
Evening had taken control of the clouds, when Jiyong and Youngbae came out of the meeting place, the two men had just attended a meeting and were currently walking together down a not too crowded hallway.
“What else after this?” Jiyong glanced at the glance of her secretary.
“It is enough for today, the meeting that should be tonight I changed the day after tomorrow, according to your wishes.” replied Youngbae.
“Ji.” Youngbae glanced at Jiyong as they were inside the elevator
“What? ”
“Mr Choi sent me the details yesterday and-” Youngbae hesitated to continue his sentence.
“I know, then what?” Jiyong loosened her tie, she felt very tired now.
“You already know who one of the rival cadidates is.” Youngbae said at last, he glanced back and found Jiyong closing his eyes for a moment.
“I know.” Answer Jiyong flatly.
“Isn't that why you accepted this offer?”
“You already know my answer. ” Jiyong stared at Youngbae for a while before pressing the button again in the elevator. “I'll uncover how rotten he is.” Jiyong said with emphasis.
Youngbae soaks her own lips, “I don't allow revenge Ji.” He tried to warn the man whom he considered to be his brother.
“I know, my mother also said the same thing.” said Jiyong indifferently.
“Do not do it if it's your original purpose, you can express it through other things, no need to play around like this.” Younggae cried carefully.
“Let it be like this, I still can't stop myself.”
“Wait for someone else to change you, wake you up, and bring you back. ” Youngbae sentence makes Jiyong smile cynically, as if rejecting Youngbae's wish.
“I'm not sure for that, I'm not being someone else Dong Youngbae” Jiyong replied in a puffed-up tone. How many times has Youngbae slalu said sentences that refer to the change of Jiyong, and Jiyong is very careless for these kinds of things.
“Please wait, you'll understand later.” Youngbae then exited first from within the elevator that had just opened, leaving Jiyong still speechless to observe his back.
Top, Youngbae, Daesung, and Seungri are the four best friends and people who work with Jiyong, they know about how Jiyong became like this, the five of them have been together for a long time.
Jiyong looked at Youngbae's back that was a little distance away from him and then began to catch up with the man, He was already very tired of digesting every sentence Youngbae said, the sentences that referred to his change, he said, it was not the time to think about this, all he had to think about was how to discuss with Dara tonight. Seconds passed so quickly, time was unfriendly or indeed Jiyong alone was slow.

“Hei Unnie, are you not in the hospital?” Strangled Jisoo when Dara had just entered and approached him who was standing behind the cash register.
“My book is home.” Dara said while giving a cup of drinks to Jisoo.
Dara is very grateful today, the doctor who handled the mother said that Kyung Ran is very stable and the middle-aged woman can go home. The mother and Jo Won returned to their home. That is the reason why Dara can come out early, come out early is the same as rearranging his heart and feelings, arranging what sentences he will say later.
“Thank God, but who accompanies aunt?” Jisoo was both grateful and happy to hear the news, see how her smile was expanding sincerely.
“Jo Won go home, where are the others?” dara's gaze scanned the entire room, ever since she entered she did not find Lisa and Hyoni in the boutique.
“Hyoni Unnie is taking care of the package above and Lisa, she is still in bathroom”
Dara nodded in understanding “How was your test Soo-yya?”
“Currently Unnie.” It's very excited.
Jisoo observes Dara placing a box containing drinks on the table next to the cashier, Jisoo sees something different from the girl who is older than him, ah he finds it. “Hei Unnie, where are you going?” not usually Jisoo saw Dara wearing a dress like this, usually the boss was more often wearing a shirt and such, why today looks formal.
“I want to go out for a while, later.”
Jisoo gnawed mischievously after hearing Dara's answer, an idea of a diamond just popped out of his brain. “Ah are you going on a date?” Tempting the young girl while grinning, Jisoo was only one year older than Lisa.
“Unnie dating?” now more and more Lisa who came and immediately joined Jisoo's plan, see how compact they are.
“Hei!” Dara quickly corrected the two girls.
“Already Unnie, it does not matter if you are dating. ” timpal Hyoni who dahat since when has joined them.
“It's time.” Lisa added.
“Why do you guys suck?” Dara glanced at the three girls in turn. People who just unite to corner him.
“Because we are tired of seeing a beautiful girl like you lonely.” Jisoo replied in a contrived tone of concern making the two fellow pranksters nod in agreement and chuckle in satisfaction.
Fortunately the boutique was still in a quiet state so it did not matter if the four girls attacked each other in light rants.
“You will be surprised when I suddenly have it later.” Dara did not want to lose to the three girls. “Drink your coffee while it's hot.” The request before it passed towards the top floor.
“Make us do that Unnie.” Lisa still denied making Dara turn her head and cluck her head.
The three girls just managed to make Dara upset and happy, the three people who both have the goal of tempting Dara.

Jiyong preferred to turn on the slalu object in his pocket, the man was waiting for the arrival of Dara who was still on his way.
A private room provided by the restourant He has a special message for his meeting tonight. There were not many things that the man prepared, because coming home from the meeting he just stopped by the apartment to just clean himself up.
“Mr Kwon.” Dara greeted with a soft voice.
The girl had just entered with a waiter who was dropping off. “Thank you” said to the waiter who was about to return.
“Together miss” reply the man's servant and pass.
“Please sit.” Jiyong.
“You don't want to sit?”
Dara seemed to gasp at the question. “Ya” replied the girl in the end, she immediately approached Jiyong and began to sit in the chair opposite the man, with a slightly anxious feeling, ah that damn thing, she thought.
“You want what message?” Jiyong began to turn off her cigarette and throw it in the ashtray that was provided on the table.
“Drink only.” Reply Dara, he really felt relieved because the man turned off his cigarette butts, although the stinging smell could still be felt.
Jiyong just nods lightly while playing the tab he holds “Kopi or ?” he glanced at Dara.
“Americano” Dara replied making the man immediately write the order in a tab that is provided by the restourant for the messaging system.
Jiyong noticed Dara at a glance after finishing with her message, the girl wearing the black dress was still busy taking off the coat and putting it on the next chair. Jiyong felt familiar with the girl he had just met yesterday, no matter what, He felt something was different but He had not found what it was, before Dara realized that He was being noticed, Jiyong immediately turned her gaze the other way.
“You already have a lover?”
The question Jiyong had just said really made Dara speechless, Jiyong was really the type to the point.
“Not yet, why?” Reply Dara as normal as possible. He had to quickly adapt to this cold man, before awkwardly controlling this place and making his mind disperse.
“No, it's just it'll be complicated if you already have a lover.” Jiyong with a flat face looked at Dara. The girl just nodded her head.
“I received this matchmaking.” Jiyong.
What a flat tone sentence that had just come out of Kwon Jiyong's mouth made Dara's eyes wide, why didn't the man even say something first. Wah Dara was increasingly convinced that if Jiyong did not even have the word stock for mere pleasantries, the man really surprised Dara.
“Do you not want to say a reason or even what you will do if you accept this offer?” Reply Dara who still does not believe Jiyong's words.
“What should I say, isn't the purpose we met to discuss this?” Again nonchalantly Jiyong said his sentence.
Dara knew Jiyong was right, that the purpose they met was to tell each other the decision, but hearing Jiyong who was so quick to respond made Dara a little unacceptable, the girl at least wanted to know Jiyong's reason.
“I mean, is there no agreement that we will discuss for this?” Dara is still trying to find the answer she wants.
“Can we talk about that later. What's your answer?”
“I?” dara foolishly asked, the girl's face was already too plain now.
“Who else is being betrothed to me.” Said Jiyong lazily.
Dara was silent for a moment why he became stupid, the girl's gaze dropped towards the table, the time to say the decision he made, he tried to calm the heartbeat that was not due to his messy emotional commitment, it is*******its own lips before answering. “I also received this” he said as he stared at Jiyong.
There was no expression at all that the man showed, what Jiyong really wanted, Dara really could not guess.
“You're still in school?” Jiyong's question only responded to a nod by Dara.
Their conversation had to be interrupted by a servant delivering the order
“Thank you.” said Dara after the waiter finished serving the drinks they ordered.
The female servant smiled warmly and nodded before passing away the two people who were still unfinished with their affairs.
“My mom asked you to come home tomorrow, You have a school schedule?”
“My lecture is on holiday, I will be there tomorrow.” Dara replied after sipping her coffee.
“About the deal you might be proposing, you can think about it and tell me. ” Jiyong picked up the glass with the wine he ordered and then sipped it.
“Iya.” Dara said before returning to enjoy coffee that had been very long he could not enjoy because of stomach pain He suffered. Once the pleasure of caffeine that just make it addictive, Dara just hope that the hull will be friendly today.
Dara thought that the very meeting he made a burden would take a long time, with complicated discussions, but in fact all that did not happen, Jiyong easily agreed with the Mother's offer, she said, and the deal between them happened.
Are not the burdens we think are not always true, I mean that the wishful thinking that scares our steps to begin to go further is not real, it's just a worry that'll set us back before we set foot on foot.
Jiyong also did not understand, why she just accepted Gi Ran's offer, which the man knew, her heart was slightly moved after watching the mother who was so sincere to embrace Dara the other day, sincerity embraces others who have not seen Jiyong in the mother for a long time, Gi Ran's warm attitude to others slightly faded after the plagues a few years ago. So seeing Gi Ran back, made Jiyong's heart slightly moved, and just agreed to the offer. Instead of fate intervening, who knows.
Dara had just finished the half glass of drink he ordered, He again observed the man who looked older than him, terbesit a question in himself, he had to call Kwon Jiyong what, what, Mr. Kwon. Ah he does not want to be like a secretary who calls his boss.
“You can just call my name, no need clan. ” Said Jiyong suddenly. Dara who heard that gasped in disbelief, how could the man. Never mind.
“Jiyong, can it be like that? ” said Dara quickly, which terbesit in the mind of the girl just spoken.
“Termu.” Reply Jiyong flat.
Jiyong was actually a little astonished, the innocent girl who was clearly younger than him confidently submitted a no-frills call older and for the first time also Jiyong did not bother about it, Jiyong also did not know why, whereas usually he would be very uncontrolled in people who did not respect him as an older, but. Ah noah, Jiyong also did not understand.
Dara was about to ask Jiyong something else, but suddenly she felt something was wrong with her body, her stomach ached, her chest hot and tight. Ah shit why the stomach acid so quickly rises, the mag is crumpled. The girl reflexes down, biting her lower lip to muffle the pain that felt unnatural, calm Dara, he thought.
Jiyong who had just finished her wine accidentally glanced at Dara who was bowing her head, Jiyong did not just take her eyes off, she noticed Dara long enough, what the girl was doing.
“Hei Dara..”.
“Hm.” Dara's voice trembled slightly and it caught on clearly in Jiyong's auditory senses.
“You're crying?” Sambar Jiyong fast.
Dara was seen shaking weakly, then interrupted the pain that she felt she started to lift her head, staring at Jiyong “I want to go home. ” He said slowly.
Jiyong realized Dara's face change, the girl was pale “You're sick?”
“No, I go home first.” Pamit Dara while cleaning her bag and coat, but the pain was so strong and won over Dara, her tiny body again fell limp with her over the chair. Damn the mind !
“Find your car keys. I inter! ” Sahut Jiyong fast, He can not see a woman with a weak state like this driving alone. His conscience is still working well.
“I can still go home by myself.” Dara tried to convince, her sense of arrogance so stroked, after all she was still sure if her body was still able to overcome this.
“I do not like to be denied at once in rejected! ” Firmly Jiyong who immediately stood meyahut bag owned by Dara who happened to still be on the table.
Dara who heard and saw it was just silent at once resigned, in fact the pain really made him can not anything, maybe it is true he had to accept the help of Jiyong.
Before helping Dara to stand up, Jiyong contacted someone from her cell phone.
“Seungri, grab my car at restourant usually.” His love for someone in the middle.
