✔ Book 1: The Other Miss Park

Other 6

Dara was in the middle of a lecture when she was called to the principal's office. She excused herself from her class. She saw how the kwon twins snickered and high-fived. She got a feeling it's because of those two.

The twins are trying to get on her nerves but she's immuned to the likes of them. She knows the two just lacks attention and needs to be taken care of properly and they can become better people. They're immature and that's a given for their age.

Dara knocked on the principal's door and she was told to come in. Once she got inside, she saw the familiar faces of the board of directors of the school and Kwon Jiyong. There's a total of eight people in the room including her.

"Good afternoon, I was called here?" Dara politely asked

"Good afternoon miss park, take a sit." Dara bowed and gently closed the door before going to the vacant chair adjacent to Mr. Kwon.

"Do you know why you're being called miss park?" Minzy asked dara who slowly shook her head.

"I'm afraid not." But dara got an inkling feeling it's because of the man infront of her and his offsprings.

"An alarming rumor came to our attention about you and we're here to clarify that."

"Enlighten me please." Jiyong raised a brow on how can the woman still be calm and polite.

"It is said to be that you're in a relationship with a highschool student." Dara was not able to hide her amusement as she laughed aloud.

"I'm sorry, that was just so funny and ridiculous. Where did you hear that?" Jiyong's eye twitched when dara turned and gave him a mocking look when she asked the last question.

"You're already caught in the act. My children has gathered sufficient evidence." Jiyong leaned back on his chair and tossed an envelope that has pictures of dara with the said highschooler and a recording of a conversation among dara and the said boy.

Dara was stunned at what was presented and jiyong smirked at her, feeling smug but his smirk was wiped away from his face when dara started howling with laughter. She clutched her stomach and bent down and even clapped her hands, wiping a tear that formed in her eyes from too much laughter.

"I'm.. so..rry. it's just... so.. funny!" She gasps in between laughter. Her laughter was contagious that some of the board chuckled and minzy was stopping herself from laughing.

"It wouldn't be so fun when you have your teaching license revoked." Jiyong sneered making her stop and turn serious.

"Oh but it will be fun to sue you for defamation of character." Jiyong and dara stared intensely at each other.

One of the boards cleared his throat and asked dara. "If you're not in a romantic relationship with that boy. How are you related with him?"

"Song mino is my nephew. He's my sister's first born before she got married to her current husband which is my niece, hayi's father." Jiyong's eyes widened a bit after hearing her answer. It was dara's turn to look smug.

"He's seen in and out of your house, are they living with you?" Dara nodded

"They live in busan, but came to live with me every time classes start as they go to school here in Seoul."

"Then what about what he said having a girlfriend older than him?" Jiyong asked, still not admitting his faults.

"I didn't know about that, but thank you for the information. I'm not sure if I should believe it though. It could just be a hearsay. Your source isn't credible after all. I should thoroughly check the facts myself before jumping into conclusions and make it an opinion-based fact which, by the way, isn't counted as a fact at all." Dara crossed her legs and propped her elbows on the table and leaned to Mr. Kwon

"When would you like to have your lawsuit served to you Mr. Kwon?" Jiyong's jaw clenched.

"I'll have my lawyer talk to you." He says through gritted teeth

"Just so you know,  I don't plan on settling."

"I'm sure you guys don't have to go all through that for a little misunderstanding." One of the board members tried to lighten up the mood.

"Oh we could go a loooong way." Dara told the board.

"Isn't that being petty miss park?" She's clearly tring to please kwon jiyong and dara wanted to roll her eyes.

"It's my reputation as a teacher we're talking about and my license was threatened to be taken from me. That's a teacher's life. If I accused you right now of being someone else's mistress just because I saw you standing next to a married guy, and you're painted to be a homewrecker when you're not, would you settle?" That got her tongue tied.

"I'm sorry but I'm running out of time for my class, is that all?" Dara turned to the rest and took their silence as a yes.

"Ah. Here's my card. I'll see you in the court." Jiyong stared at the calling card infront of him and clenched his fists.

"I suggest you apologize." Jiyong's head snapped up to minzy. Him, apologize? He's a Kwon!

"I believe a sincere apology will work it out." She smiled.

The twins were shocked to see dara coming back and continued her lessons like nothing. "Aren't you supposed to be kicked out?" Hanbin asked, unable to keep his silence.

"Yeah. You were caught to be in a relationship with a senior high student!" Murmurs buzzed around the room and dara clicked her tongue and silenced them by tapping the stick loudly to the board

"Really? I was not aware of that. Can you please tell my boyfriend to let me know about his existence?"

"You're just feigning ignorance! We saw it with our own eyes and heard it with our own ears" Dara sighed she shook her head.

"Ask your father. He knows." That made the twins shut up.
