I'll Wait

Chapter 31

"Let's run away"

Dara's conspicuity felt silent for a moment as she halfheartedly cling in the waist of his coat to hug him completely. She fixed her small face that fits perfectly between his shoulders and swallowed the forming lump inside her throat.

"You're drunk" she whispered sweetly as if she's talking to a kid who just woke up from a bad nightmare.

Jiyong pulled out from the warm hug and stepped back away from her while shooking his head. She felt a stinging pain inside her chest to feel him so distant because God knows that she never wanted that.

"I am.. but believe me.. I know what I'm doing"

He gathered her small face to his palms and rests his forehead to hers.

"I know what I'm doing and I know that these may complicate things even more but if running away will be the only reason to prove how much I love you then it's, worth it"

Dara closed her eyes and her hands reached to his palms.

"J-jiyong" she stammered.

"Please Dara.." he inhaled her scent deeply. "let me prove it to you, one last time"

Dara's tears finally escaped from her closed eyes while her trembling hands stayed neatly placed above his hands and her forehead remained to touch his. She took her time to feel it, his warm hands, his breath and his presence. It is true, he is here embracing her. The energy that she thought was drained away from everything that just happened today suddenly rose up again and she feels alive just to think of him standing in front of her, right here right now and making her feel like she's the most beautiful woman on earth. It's just contentment in a minute.

She nod her head and snaked her arms around his nape when he finally claimed her lips. Like a major disease that just finally had the cure, yes, it did felt like that and she wrapped her legs to his waist because she doesn't want it to disappear abruptly.

Dara was half crying and half laughing. She just missed him so much and she just doesn't care anymore if he's really serious or if she's just having a nice dream.

Jiyong started to walk and place her down the couchas they share a more passionate kiss. He took break in a brief seconds just to breath. He lowered down his body and that made it more sensational. She groaned when he started to bite her lower lip while he carefully caught her two hands behind and pinned it above her head just to stop her from doing anything stupid.
