A Love She Deserves

Finale

Dara was busy cleaning up the tables in preparation for the opening of the restaurant. Se Kyung came out of the kitchen and approaches her.

"Ah In and Ricardo are not back yet?" she asked, "The restaurant will open in an hour"

"They are picking up the meat orders. Ah In Oppa asked Ramon to get the vegetables. That was an hour ago so they will be back by now," Dara explains as she arranged the chairs. Se Kyung rolled her eyes. "I told Yeobo to let Ramon and Ricardo do the grocery shopping." She paused, "The table napkins are ready. You can arrange them by tables now,"

"Yes, I'll get it in a while," Dara said. Se Kyung went back to the kitchen as Dara checks the beverages in the fridge. She went to the backroom and gets the napkins on the napkin holder. She placed one napkin holder on each table.

Dara is arranging the utensils when someone enters the restaurant.

"Sorry but we're not---"Dara stops speaking when he saw who's the person who enters the restaurant. It was Seung Hyun. Dara blinks a few times, thinking that it was a dream. Is he really Choi Seung Hyun? This man wearing a comfortable white and gray stripes polo shirt, jeans, and shoes, his hair is down that looks soft, and he's smiling brightly at her. Dara was scared that he's just a dream because she will surely cry if she wakes up and he's gone.

"Hello, Dara," Seung Hyun said. Dara let go of the spoon she's holding and runs towards Seung Hyun. Seung Hyun opens his arms at her and Dara embraces him. Seung Hyun hugs her back.

"I miss you," Dara whispers as she buries her face on the crook of Seung Hyun's neck. Seung Hyun holds her tight and closes his eyes.

"I miss you, too, love," he said.

Se Kyung came out of the kitchen, "Dara, what happened? Are you okay?" she asked before seeing Seung Hyun. Seung Hyun opens his eyes and looks at Se Kyung. Se Kyung smiles at her friend and he returns her smile.

"Please tell me that this isn't a dream," Dara said. Seung Hyun looks at Dara. He can feel that she's crying. He raised his one hand and holds Dara's chin. He tilts her head up and saw that she is crying. Seung Hyun smiles at her. "I'm not a dream, Dara. I'm here," he said before wiping her tear-tainted cheek. He places his hand on her jaw and kisses her forehead. Dara closes her eyes.

"We'll never be apart again," he said.

Ah In and Ricardo went in and saw Seung Hyun and Dara. Ah In gave the plastic bag he's carrying to Ricardo and Ricardo excuses himself to the kitchen.

"Yeobo," Se Kyung said. Seung Hyun looks behind him and saw Ah In. He carefully let go of Dara before facing Ah In. Se Kyung approaches her husband. "Seung Hyun, this is my husband, Yoo Ah In. Yeobo, this is Choi Seung Hyun, my best friend," she said.

"It's good to finally meet you, Seung Hyun," Ah In bows to him. Seung Hyun bows back before holding Dara's hand. "Nice to meet you, too."

"Can I have a hug now?" Se Kyung asks Seung Hyun. Seung Hyun chuckles and gave her a hug without letting go of Dara's hand. Then, Seung Hyun looks at Dara. "Stop crying, love. Se Kyung and Ah In might think I'm hurting you," he said. Dara holds Seung Hyun's arm. "Sorry, I'm just too happy that you are here,"

"Have seat Seung Hyun. Would you love some drinks? Beer, wine, water?" Ah In asks.

"Water will do," Seung Hyun smiles. Se Kyung directs him and Dara on a four-chair table. Dara and Seung Hyun sat together while Se Kyung sat across them.

"When did you arrive?" Se Kyung asks.

"Last night. I was tired so I sleep after a quick dinner at the restaurant in front of the place I'm staying," Seung Hyun explains, and then he looks at Dara who's still staring at him. Seung Hyun smiles, "Enjoying your vacation?" he amusingly asks.
