Taeyang leaned on his table inside his study, deep in thought. 

Nang marinig niyang umalis si Dara without even telling CL, biglang nawala ang sakit ng sampal at kamot ni CL. It was as if his body grew numb. They were all rooted in the spot as soon as she uttured those words.

CL was so mad at them that they knew it wasn't a joke. 

Dahil kitang kita nila ang galit sa mga mata ni CL, they didn't need to confirm the fact that what she said was true. 

Dara left. 

"F*ck!" 

Napatingin si Taeyang kay TOP. The man was pulling on his hair like a mad man. Ang noong una ay maayos at nakastyle na buhok ng pinakamatanda sa kanila, parang bahayan na ng ibon ngayon.

"Sino ba kasing gago ang nagsabing si Dara ang pagtrippan ha?!" TOP didn't mind the pain he was inflicting on himself. Kung masakit na ang simpleng pagsabunot sa sarili, ano pa kaya kung feelings na ng isang tao ang nasaktan.

"There's no use in asking that now." Bumuntong hininga si Taeyang. The only thing they could do was try to make up for the things they did.

How they would do that - he had no idea.

After 6 years

A car entered the gates to the Park's estate making Dara's face instantly lift up as she ran down the stairs to meet it.

"Yah! Park Sandara! Slow down! Madadapa ka niyan eh!" Her brother shouted after her but his scolding fell on deaf ears. His sister didn't stop - instead,  she ran faster, making him shake his head with a chuckle. "What am I going to do with that child?"

"She's no child anymore Sanghyun-ah." Se7en said with a small smile.

"You're right." He then looked at his sister who was rocking back and forth on her heels as she waited for the car to stop. "Pero anong magagawa niya? Ako naging kapatid niya kaya wala siyang choice. She's still a child in my eyes."

"Ewan ko sayo." Natatawang tugon ng nakakatandang lalake.

"Ah, kamusta nga pala yung event na pinaplano niyo ni Lolo?"

"Ah, yun ba?"

Hindi na natuloy ni Se7en ang dapat sasabihin niya because Dara's shriek filled his and Sanghyun's ears.

They both turned to look at the woman who was now hugging a man.

"Yah! Park Sandara!" Galit na bulyaw ng kapatid niya as he quickly made his way to where she and the man were with an equally angry Se7en in tow.

Dara couldn't hear anything else.

It has been 6 years since she last saw the man and she missed him very much.

Nakakapag-usap pa naman sila through video call pero iba pa rin talaga kapag harap harapan.

"Hoy, baka mapatay ako nito ah?" The man joked, still hugging Dara back.

"Okay lang. Nayakap naman na kita for the last time." Balik na biro ng babae bago bitiwan ang kaibigan.

She let the man go just as her brother and cousin reached their spot.

"Kuya, this is Minho. Minho these are my Kuyas. My brother Sanghyun and our older cousin Dongwook. This is the best friend I've been talking about. Lee Minho."
