Then You Came (DaraGon Fanfic)

Chapter 15

Dara walked down the stairs while her knees were wobbly.

She didn't expect Jiyong to do that.

Receiving a hug from him was too much to take in for her. It's just surreal.

But she tried to show that she's calm as much as possible.

When she got inside her room, she threw herself on her bed and covered her head with a pillow and squealed.

She sat up abruptly, pursed her lips while breathing in and out continuously.

"Calm yourself Dara. It's just he's way to say thank you... It's normal for socialites to act that way without meaning anything... It's totally not what you're thinking."

She laid down and flapped her feet.

"Let's consider this as one of those lovely dreams while you sleep... Go to bed now Dara." She smiled and remembered Jiyong's face before closing her eyes.

"Unnie, someone sent a package for you." Minzy called while Dara was inside the kitchen cooking lunch for the whole family.

"Who's that from?" She asked Minzy who took the box where she's at.

"I don't know... Let's open it for you to know."

She washed her hand and carefully opened the box to see what's inside.

They were both in awe after seeing a beautiful single sleeved black cocktail dress and a pair of silver stiletto heels inside the box.

"Read the letter Unnie." Minzy instructed.

"Who would send this type of gift?" Dara wondered.

Dara,

I was hoping we can have dinner tonight. Just the two of us.

I'll be there by 5PM.

Looking forward to seeing you again.

Jiyong

"Eh? Jiyong Kwon has sent you this? As in, your boss? And he's asking you out for a date?" Minzy reacted after reading the letter that goes with the package.

"No, no, no... It can't be a date. Probably another thank you gesture for taking care of the kids." Dara denied the thought not only to Minzy but also to herself.

"I don't see it as that way... A beautiful dress plus a pair of pretty shoes to wear... then an invitation to go out for dinner. What else could it be?"

"He has weird stuff going on in his head Minzy. He's very extravagant when it comes to being thankful."

"So you're coming with him?"

"Should I?" She was thinking twice.

"You said it's just a friendly dinner... It's an opportunity you can't miss. A dinner in a fancy restaurant with the most wanted bachelor in town... Who would say no to that."

"I'm nervous."

"Tell me Unnie... Are you starting to like your boss?"

Dara fiddled with her fingers.

"Be honest Unnie."
