Then You Came (DaraGon Fanfic)

Chapter 44

"The paintings relay too much pain and sadness... Is the artist getting her inspiration from her own life experience?" Someone commented from behind.

Dara was busy making sure that all her paintings are securely placed on the wall. "I'm actually the..." she faced the person who gave the comment and was shocked to see who it was. "Seungri?" Her eyes widened.

"Surprise!!" He grinned.

"Seungri." Dara smiled and gave him a hug.

He looked around and was amazed on what he's seeing. "There are a lot of good artists in here." He commented.

"You're right... I'm scared my work's gonna be left out because of those wonderful pieces."

Seungri shook his head. "Yours is at par or even better than them."

"You're really good with words, Seungri."

He chuckled. "But I know someone who would appreciate your work even more."

Dara's expression changed.

"Aren't you gonna talk to him, Noona?" Seungri became serious.

She forced a smile. "I almost forgot. I have to talk to the event organizer about something... I'll get back quickly."

She was about to walk away when Seungri held her wrist and stopped her.

"We need to talk, Noona."

She faced him. "I can't."

"If not about hyung, at least allow me to talk to you about the twins."

Her eyebrows furrowed. "What about them?"

"Send me a message once you're done today. I can't discuss it with you here."

"You're making me nervous, Seungri."

"I'm sorry to make you worried... Don't think about it first. Focus on your exhibit. I'll see you later."

Dara nodded but still looked worried.

Seungri tapped per shoulder and slowly walked away, making sure to look at other art pieces that he passes by.

"Dinner?" Jaejoong asked.

Dara was busy clearing things at the station that was given to her.

"I have to see someone, Jaejoong." She replied after placing her knapsack on her back.

"Him?"

"Jiyong?"

He nodded.

She shook her head.

"I see."

"Thanks for the offer, Jae... I have to go."

"You take care."

"Thanks." She smiled. "Try the Kebab Restaurant near our hotel... You'll love it." She suggested.

"Will do... I was looking for something new to eat... Kebab sounds like a plan."

"I'm sorry I have to leave first."

"No, it's okay."

"Be safe... Got to go."

He half raised his hand and waved it at her.

She waved back then jogged out of the event area.

***********

Dara saw Seungri waiting outside of the event hall.

She ran towards him for her not to waste any more time. "Have I kept you waiting?"
