Someone's POV

I was walking at the mall and as I noticed this beautiful girl looking outside the window. As I can see her eyes. I remember someone. Someone that was so special to me. Is sh-- she??

~flashback

(January 16, 2005 5 years old)

"Taehyung-ah, we've been playing here for so long. I want some ice cream." Jae said

"Just a minute Jae-ah, its been two days since I sat here. You were always staying here." I said

"Yah, I remember your dad calling you honey bear, when I went to your house." She said

"Only oppa and eomma calls me that." I said

"Well, include me there now, HONEY BEAR." She said

"Yah, I remember your mom calling you DARLING, and you hated it." I said

"YAAAAH! DON'T CALL ME THAT!" She shouted

"Darling. Darling. Darling." I said

"Lets just go to the icecream shop honey bear!" She said

-ice cream shop

"Taehyung-ah?" She asked

"Wae?" I asked

"Sorry for shouting at you at the playground. Im just still in shock. When eomma calls me with that. She started to be weird at me. Trying to tie my hair so weird..." She said

"Well, from now on. I would be the only one to call you that, okay? When your eomma calls you that. You always know where to run." I said

"Kamsamnida." She said and hugged me

~end of the flashback

Its been 12 years, but im still finding her. I miss calling her darling. I miss her teasing me. I miss everything about her. After the incident that happened when we were 6 years old. Its still on my mind. After everything that happened back there. I can still feel the pain. The pain that I let my dad decide for me. That can turn out to be like this. That I would be everyone's enemy. Calling me..

Mr. Mask how pathetic for me. But I have nothing to do right? Since we moved out to namwon, and found a better place at daegu. I keep on crying, and wishing that I could go back time. And tell Jae-ah how much I love her, and how much she broke my heart after finding out that she moved out. Jae-ah or darling was the only nickname that I could ever think of. She was the first girl who only stayed in my life and understands me.

My eomma left me because she always have this business running. Oppa left me because of his notorious gang. Jae-ah was the only one who played with me every morning. And brought me some of her breakfast biscuits.

The way she call me Taehyung-ah when she is mad, still makes me want to make her more mad. That's when I started calling her Jae-ah. So we could both match. How childish that was. But, she was the only one that I've been thinking of.

Going to school when I was still a kid back then made me scared. Made me want to go home study. But, I always think of her. The way she tell me that, even though when the time comes that she is gone. We would both end up with our dream company. "Hyungara" she always thinks of the future.

Every time when we were going to the playground, she always makes funny jokes, and talk about every single detail of her life. Even though she had a rough time. I would still stay with her. Jae-ah was the only girl who I met that was really strong but at the same time, a cry baby.

Looking at this girl in front of me.. Reminds me of Jae-ah's beautiful eyes. They are really similar to each other. Why am I having this feeling? That's not Jae-ah. That would never be her.

Huh? Why is she sitting with Eun woo? Is Eun woo starting dating someone again?

Ara's POV

As I looked at him for so long. It makes me feel weird. I never saw anyone like him before. Wearing a mask at the mall. But yeah, maybe he is one of the mall bands out there. But why am I having this kind of feeling after I looked at him?

"Hey Ara, are you okay??" Eun Woo asked

"Huh? Yes, im okay. Wheres the carrot cake?" I asked

"Well, apparently, when I was at the cashier, all of the slices of carrot cake was sold to the first one. Mianhe." He said

"Its fine. Lets go? I wanna explore a little here in Lotte department store." I said

We went outside and the guy with a mask was still standing there. Looking so shocked with things. I dont know what was going on with his mind. Walking outside the cafe, his eyes were just looking at me. Hes weird though.

"You know him?" Eun woo asked looked at the guy with a mask

"Huh? Who?" I asked

"The guy with a mask." He said

"Ahh, I never met him. Lets go?" I asked

"Okay, let go." He said

While we were walking, I can see Eun woo mad. I dont want to ask him if he knows the guy. Because, I feel like something is wrong.

Eun Woo's POV
I was waiting for my turn at the cashier but as I looked back, I can see Taehyung. What was he doing in here? I have no time to have a fight with his gang.

I returned at the table and just told Ara that there was no carrot cake and we already left. I dont know what was Taehyung's deal right now. But if he is here to steal Ara. Not gonna happen. Even if I just met her for a day. I think.. I think I love her. Aish, what am I even thinking? Ara is something.

She is so strong to face some challenges in her life. Bringing Eun Jun here in Korea without anyone that could take care of him, is such a confident act.

I dont know what has gotten into me why I feel that I love her. Like every guy I see in the way. I still have so many insecurities. But being with Ara for a day really makes me comfortable.

What if Taehyung found out that I am with a girl? Is that's why he was here? But the way he looks at Ara at the cafe is something.

~flashback

(The day Eun Woo finding out the details about Ara at his dads office.)

"Eun woo son, you know that I have trusted you so much." Dad said

"I know that dad." I said

"I want you to take care of Park Jae Ara. Or else I will let everyone know that you have been managing a gang." Dad said

"I will take care of her." I said

"And, about Park Jae Ara. Your enemy, Kim Taehyung. He is also a gang leader right? I found out that they have connections when they were kids. Ara's sister contacted me before I agreed to the application form. She said that Ara forgot about her memories with Taehyung." Dad said

"So what do you want me to do?" I asked

"Nothing. Im just saying about her. And that Ara's parents? Are big shareholders here in school. If you couldn't take care of her, I would be glad to tell her father Park Jung hyuk, about your gang." Dad said

"Yes, I'll take care of her." I said

"Now get out. I still have plenty of things to do." Dad said

~end of the flashback

So Taehyung and Ara is connected when they were still kids, but Ara has forgot about it all. How? That's weird. And what was dad hiding from me? Why would he let me take care of Ara so much?
