Second Chance [ON-going]

[10] Handsome

[DARA'S POV]

"Oppa, we're going to be late!" I shouted. He's always like this—calm, unbothered, completely opposite of me.

"Aist... we're not late. It's way too early. Chill," he said, running his fingers through his hair as he walked down the stairs. I glanced at the wall clock. Yep, he was right—way too early.

"Will Donghae be coming with us?" he asked casually.

"He said he'll follow. He just finished something," I replied.

"Oh, okay. And that cursing-machine best friend of yours... she coming too?" he asked with a teasing grin. I just shot him a look. He always called Yuri that ridiculous nickname.

"Yes, she'll come with us. And please, stop calling her that," I said, walking toward the kitchen.

"It fits her. You know, I'm curious how you're not infected by her cursing mouth," he said, smirking.

"Yah! Yuri doesn't have a disease that can infect anyone!" I said, rolling my eyes.

"Whatever, Dara," he muttered.

"Dara!!" We both turned to see who was shouting as Yuri walked into the house.

"Yuri, we're in the kitchen!" I called back. I shot a glance at Oppa.

"I won't say anything that can start a world war," he said, his tone bored but amused.

"Hey! Am I late?" Yuri asked, walking up to us.

"Nope, it's okay," I said. Oppa was already heading out to the car.

"So... I'll meet 'him' later?" she asked, excitement in her voice.

"Yeah," I replied with a small smile.

"Wait, Dara... is he handsome? You know, maybe I can hang out with 'him' and get to know him better," she said, nudging me playfully. I giggled.

"Yah! It's not funny. I've prepared myself for this day," she said, twirling to show me her carefully chosen outfit.

"Yeah... he's really handsome, you know," I said. Her eyes lit up at my words.

"Dara! Let's go now!" she said, tugging at my arm.

"Alright, we'd better go," I said. We walked to the car, and Yuri and I rode in the back while Oppa drove. The ride was smooth—no traffic.

"Okay... Seoul International Airport?" Yuri asked, glancing out the window.

"Yep. We're picking them up," I replied.

"Wait... I thought—okay, never mind... It's them," she said, squinting.

"Sorry, I forgot to tell you. We're picking up Omma and Oppa. He's with them," I explained.

"Oh..." she murmured, slightly embarrassed.

"Let's go now," Oppa said after parking the car. We made our way to the arrivals area and scanned the crowd for familiar faces. A few minutes later, I spotted them.

"Omma!!!" I waved. She looked at me and beamed a big smile. Behind her were Oppa and... him. My heart skipped a beat. They walked quickly toward us.

"Omma!! Oppa!!" I called, rushing forward to hug them.

"Uncle... Auntie..." Yuri said, hugging them as well.

"Aigo!! Yuri-ah! You've grown even more beautiful," Omma said, smiling warmly.

"Omo Auntie, not that much... kekeke," Yuri said shyly. Then she turned to me. "...Oh, Dara, where is he?"

"Who?" Omma asked, looking puzzled. I giggled and walked toward Oppa, who was standing near a handsome man. My heart fluttered.

"Hello, handsome," I said, smiling. He looked at me and returned the smile before pulling me into a warm hug. I hugged him back tightly.

"Did you miss me?" I asked softly. He just nodded, and my smile widened. I stepped back, holding his hand, and led him toward Yuri. Yuri's eyes widened in confusion as she watched us.

I smiled at her reassuringly.

"Yuri... I'd like you to meet Jino," I said.

"O-oh... hello there, little fellow," Yuri said, cautiously extending her hand.

"Yes... he is my son," I said, smiling as Jino waved shyly.
