KARA'S POV

"Hi" he stood up and greeted me with a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

He pulled out a chair for me and helped me get settled. "Nakita mo rin ba sila Jungkook?" tanong ko sa kanya.

"Yeah, he's with his friends. You met them?" tanong niya. Tumango ako at ngumiti.

"I've met them before" Sabi ko. He smiled and nodded. "But we're not here to talk about them" he said.

I rolled my eyes at him. "I know Mr. Kim Taeh---" I stopped myself and looked around.Baka kasi may makarinig.

"I forgot we're in the VIP room" I laughed.

"So is this like our first date?" tanong niya. Tumawa ako at umiling. "What?" Tanong ko nung mapansing nakatitig lang siya sa akin.

"I told you I want us back together" He said. Tumango ako. "But before that, you should talk to my parents first and also my brother" sabi ko.

He reached for my hand and gently squeezed it. "Don't worry, I'll make sure they'll forgive me" He said.

After kong kinausap sila mommy at daddy tungkol kay Eunwoo ay sinabi ko na rin ang lahat tungkol kay Taehyung na nagkikita kami at handa na akong ipakilala si Celine sa kanya. Ofcourse nirerespeto nila ang desisyon ko, pero gusto ko ding malaman kung gusto pa ba nila si Taehyung at kung handa na rin ba silang patawarin siya.

My brother was a little hesitant, pero sinabi niya na he'll give him a chance to redeem himself. Wala naman daw siyang magagawa dahil tatay padin ni Celine si Taehyung.

Yareli knows about this and Yareli being Yareli she supports me and my decisions.

"Hindi maalis sa isip ko yung sinabi mo" Taehyung said. Naglalakad na kami ngayon sa park. Napatigil ako sa paglalakad at timingin sa kanya.

"Sinabi ko?"

Tumango siya. "You still haven't told me what you wanted to tell me the night we broke up" sabi niya.

I smiled and squeeze his hand. "Wait for a little bit more..." sabi ko.

"You'll know it soon" Sabi ko.

"Alright I won't ask twice, since I know you'll tell me when the times right" he chuckled.

He laced our fingers together and we continued walking. Pero napatigil uli kami sa paglalakad nang biglang mag ring ang cellphone ko.

I looked at Taehyung and he smiled at me signalling me that it's okay to take the call.

"Hello?"

"Oooh so you're openly walking at the park with Daddy?"

"Yareli!! " I laughed and started looking around.

"Naka holding hands pa ha" She laughed. Iginala ko uli ang paningin ko pero hindi ko siya makita.

"Where are you?" Tanong ko. "Secret baka pauwiin mo ako" Tumawa uli siya.

"I'm hanging up" Sabi ko. "Alam mo ang sungit mo" sabi niya.

"Pero sige na nga, mag enjoy na kayo sa date niyo ni Daddy"

I rolled my eyes. "Stop saying that!"

"Wow may pa irap ka pang nalalaman naka ngiti ka naman"

"Seriously? Where are you?" tanong ko uli.

"And stop saying that word" Sabi ko. Taehyung looked at me and mouthed "Is everything all right?" I smiled and just nodded at him.

"What? Daddy? Hindi mo naman daddy, daddy ni Celine ang ibig kong sabihin" she laughed.

"Sige na enjoy your date---"

"Yareli!"

"Oh and by the way, ang cute niyong tignan"

"Sto---" I was going to say stop it pero binabaan na niya ako ng telepono.

I turned to Taehyung and smiled. "That was Yareli" Sabi ko.

"Let's go?" Tanong niya at muling kinuha ang kamay ko.

"Galit pa din ba si Yareli sa akin?" He asked.

I looked at him confused, but he just smiled at me. "She really looks like she's about to kill me before, and I was just wondering.... If she's still mad about what I did to you before" he said.

"I don't think she's mad at you anymore" I shrugged. "Really?" he asked.

Tumango ako. Since I already told Yareli everything and now that she knows the truth she's no longer mad at Taehyung, well maybe a little since she still can't get over the issue about Yeri.

"She wouldn't let me see you or even talk to you if she's still mad. Pipigilan at pipigilan niya akong makita ka" I said.

He smiled and squeezed my hand gently. "I hope your Parents and Kayden hyung forgive me as well" He said.

I gave him a reassuring smile.

"well... I'll understand if they won't forgive me that easily" he said. Napakunot ang noo kong tumungin sa kanya.

"I promised them I wouldn't hurt you.. But look at what I did---"

"I broke their trust.. And an apology wouldn't fix that" he said. I stood infront of him and cupped his face.

Tumitig ako sa mga mata niya at ngumati. "You're right.. You broke their trust and hurt their princess, and an apology wouldn't really fix that" I giggled.

"You'll have to pay for what you did" I said seriously.

He pouted. "Are you really trying to comfort me?" he asked.

I laughed and nodded. "Don't worry too much, mom and dad isn't mad at you" I smiled.

"But Kuya....."

"Yeah I know Kayden hyung probably still hates me" sabi niya. I just smiled and continued walking.

"You know what?.... Let's not think about that right now... We're on a ..." I looked around, not being able to say the word 'date'.

Hindi ko alam pero nahihiya ako, I mean wr haven't talked about us, I mean the real score between us. Sinabi lang niyang he wants me back. And he wants us to ve together.

"We're on a? Date?" Tanong niyang nakangiti. I looked at him and shooked my head. "We're on a park... To unwind.. Yeah" I smiled sheepishly.

He chuckled and just nodded. "This is a date, Kara" He said catching up with me and lacing our fingers together.

"So... This is me" I smiled and looked behind me. Nakatayo na kaming dalawa sa tapat ng bahay namin. Hindi namin namalayan ang oras na gabi na pala, naglilibot libot lang naman kami sa park, kumain tapos nag laro lang sa park. Maybe this is what they meant by 'Time flies when you're enjoying. "

"I'll see you tomorrow" sabi niya at niyakap ako. He pulled away and quickly pecked my lips. I looked at him wide eyed but he just chuckled.

Ngumiti siya at kinuha ang mga kamay ko.
He squeezed my hand and smiled. "Can't we stay here a little longer?" He asked. Natawa ako sa sinabi niya.

"Dad and Kuya will be home soon" sabi ko.

"And besides we'll see eachother tomorrow.. You'll live" tumawa ako. "Now go" Sabi ko.

"Yes ma'am" he chuckled and hopped on his car.

"Drive safely" Paalala ko sa kanya. "I will for you" he winked.

"Bye!" I waved him goodbye and I watched as he drove off. I smiled to myself as I enter our house.

"Is that Eunwoo?" bungad na tanong ni mommy, karga karga niya si Celine.

I shook my head no. "That's uhm.... Taehyung mom"

My mom smiled, I expected her to look shock but she didn't, she even looked at me amused.

"Mom..." natatawang sabi ko."What's that look all about" tanong ko. Kinuha ko si Celine mula sa kanya.

"Nothing" my mom laughed shaking her head. "It's just that, it's my first time seeing you like that again" Sabi niya.

I looked at her confused. "Like?" tanong ko.

"Happier?"

"Well nung mga panahong hindi mo namamalayang nahuhulog ka kay Eunwoo---"

"Mom when did I fell for him?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Naupo ako sa couch at ipinatong si Celine sa hita ko. I smiled at her and tickled her stomach.

"You didn't realize it but you did and you were happy...." sabi ni mommy.

Did I really fell for Eunwoo without realizing it? And it was too obvious that my mom noticed and I didn't?

"But right now spending time with Taehyung makes you like that.... You look happier and at peace."

"All this time your heart was astray, but now it finally found its home"

TAEHYUNG'S POV

"Woah! What's with all this stuff?" tanong ni Jimin nung makita ang mga damit na nakalatag sa kama ko. Hindi ko siya pinansin at itinuloy lang ang ginagawa ko.

"Lilipat ka na ba ng bahay?" tanong niya.

I chuckled and shook my head no. "I'm just.... Trying to find something nice to wear for tomorrow" sabi ko.

"May event ba bukas?" he asked and rummaged through the pile of clothes.

"I'm having dinner with the Agoncillo's tomorrow"

He laughed and hugged me. "Wow! Congrats! Does that mean okay na kayo?" Tanong niya.

"Me and Kara? Okay naman na kami... But that's why I'm meeting them tomorrow to---"

"Para mamanhikan?" he asked excitedly.

"To apologize? And to talk to them?" sabi ko.

"Oh this one looks great" sabi ko. At ipinakita ang hawak kong suit.

"what do you think?" tanong ko sa kanya. "That's from Prada?" he asked. Tumango ako its a suit with like crocheted or wool red jacket.

"Nah, you look like you're gonna attend Christmas Eve or something" sabi niya.

May inabot siya sa closet ko at ibinagay sa akin. "How bout that one? That's simple yet it screams 'I'm here to take your daughter away, sir' vibes" he chuckled.

I looked at the Khaki Linen Jacket and pants from Jaybaek Couture. I shrugged and nodded.

"Thanks bro" I said. "Anytime,now get some rest.... Wait..." napatigil siya at tumingin sa akin.

"If girls call it beauty rest then do guys call it handsome rest?" he asked. I looked at him dumbfounded.

"Alam mo antok lang yan, labas na nga at magliligpit pa ako" sabi.

"I'm just curious" he laughed."Pero sige na nga. I'll go, mag handsome rest ka na" he laughed again and went out.

I smiled to myself and finished cleaning up.
Pagkatapos kong maglinis ay naligo na ako tsaka lumabas sa kwarto, sakto namang paalis sila Jimin at Namjoon hyung.

"San kayo pupunta?" Tanong ko. Tumingin si Jimin kay Namjoon hyung.

"Susunduin sila Jungkook mukhang naparami sila ng inom" sagot ni Jimin.

Tumango ako, oo nga pala. Magkakasama pala silang magkakaibigan. "Sama ako hyung!" sabi ko kay Namjoon hyung.

"Okay then let's go, baka mamaya may makakita pa sa kanila" sabi niya.

Mabilis kaming bumaba at sumakay sa sasakyan. "Jimin try calling Jungkook" utos ni Namjoon hyung kay Jimin.

Agad naman niyang inilabas ang phone niya at idiniall ang number ni Jungkook.

"I'm putting in on speaker hyung" sabi ni Jimin. Pagkatapos ng ilang ring ay sumagot na si Jungkook.

"Hello? Jimin hyung?"

"Oh Jungkook, where are you guys? Are tou drunk?" tanong ni Jimin.

"Ah we're here at Itaewon hyung... I'm not drunk, but these guys are---"

"Skrrrt skrrrt! It's yo man double B!" rinig namin ang boses ni Bambam.

"They're wasted... especially Eunwoo" sabi niya."Oh thank God you're not drunk" sabi ni Namjoon hyung.

"Stay where you are, susunduin namin kayo" sabi ni Jimin. "Alright hyung" sagot naman ni Jungkook bago niya ibaba ang telepono.

"Ano naman ang naisipan nila at nagpakalasing sila?" tanong ni Namjoon hyung. "Ngayon lang kasi ata nila makakasama ulit si Eunwoo, hyung kaya nagcelebrate ata sila" Sagot ko.

"Hmmm..."tumango si Namjoon hyung.

Nakarating kami sa bar kung nasaan sila Jungkook." Diba dito rin tayo dinala ni Eunwoo nung nag celebrate siya? "tanong ni Namjoon hyung.

Inilibot namin ni Jimin ang paningin namin sabay tango." Yes hyung, dito rin nakita ni Kara si Taehyung "tawa ni Jimin.

Ngumiti nalang ako. Because of that incident nagkaroon kami ng pagkakataon ni Kara na makapag-usap and now look at us. Ayos na kami. Maybe I should thank Eunwoo for that, he's the reason why me and Kara are good now. And we're almost back together.

Okay stop right there Kim Taehyung. Wag mong pangunahan ang sarili mo.

"Yah Kim Taehyung?! Sasama ka ba sa loob?" sigaw ni Jimin. "Coming" sagot ko at sinundan sila papasok.

"Woahh, this place is really packed" sabi ni Jimin. Madami ngang tao dito, maybe because this is one of the high end bars here in Itaewon. We managed to get to the VVIP room unrecognized.

At himalang si Jungkook lang ang matino sa kanila. They all looked pretty drunk, and Eunwoo got the worst of it. He looks pretty wasted.

"What happened to him?" tanong ni Jimin habang nakaturo kay Eunwoo. Jungkook sighed looking at his friend.

"Girl problem" sagot niya.

Jimin, Namjoon hyung and I looked at eachother then back to Jungkook. "Girl problem? Eh diba sila na?" tanong ko.

Jungkook shook his head no. "diba sabi nga niyahyung, its not official he just needed to confirm those rumor to protect the girl" sabi ni Jungkook.

"Eh anong problema nila? Bat nagpakalasing??"tanong ni Jimin.

Jungkook sighed again." He asked the girl out, but he---"

" got rejected. Ouch"Jimin said. I looked at Eunwoo. Poor kid.

"And not only that, hyung..." sabi ni Jungkook.

"sabi niya mukhang may ibang nagugustuhan daw yung babae, and that's whats hurting him the most"

"aigoo.... Poor kid" Namjoon hyung voiced out.

"Let's go and take them home." Sabi ni Namjoon hyung. Inalalayan namin sila hanggang sa sasakyan. Si Jungkook at Jimin sa isang sasakyan kasama si Bambam at Yugyeom. Kami naman ni Namjoon hyung, Eunwoo at Jaehyun sa isa.

"We'll see you back at the house hyung" sabi ni Jimin.

"Be careful! Drive safely!" sabi ni Namjoon hyung sa kanilang dalawa.

I looked back and saw that Eunwoo stirred on his seat. "Aigoo, why did you drink that much?" tanong ko.

He opened his eyes and sighed. I don't think he knows what's happening right now. "I... Love her" he mumbled.

"You sure do" tumango ako. I feel like I can understand his pain, though I haven't been rejected, but the hurt he's feeling right now. I can relate to that.

"Why... Canshst shee love me...backds"he slurred. I sighed, nakakawa namang tignan ang batang to. I think its Eunwoo's first time to be this heartbroken. I felt my first heartbreak with Kara and that sure feels like dying.

" Just give her time, but don't give up" sabi ko kahit na alam kong hindi rin niya maalala ang mga to bukas.

"Kaaera, I love.... Yoush,... Ah and.... Celine too.. like my ownsh chsild"

He keeps on mubling.

"Keera? Kiera is that her name?" tanong ni Namjoon hyung na nakatingin na din kay Eunwoo.

"He must've really fallen for her" sabi ni Namjoon hyung.Tumango naman ako.

"Celine" sabi ko. "And he loves that kid like his own" dagdag ko.

"Imagine being with her throughout her pregnancy, witnessing the child grow each day... Ofcourse he'll grow his feelings towards them, he acted like a husband and a father... And now he's heartbroken" sabi ni Namjoon hyung.

I looked at him and reached out to tap his shoulder. "Don't give up man, she'll realize that you're a great guy" sabi ko.

The rest of the car ride is quiet, you can just hear Eunwoo mumbling about how he loves her, and asking why she can't love him back.

I sighed. That girl is gonna regret that she lost a great guy.

Pagkatapos naming maihatid sila Jaehyun at Eunwoo ay umuwi na rin kammi ni Namjoon hyung.

Dumiretso ako sa kwarto ko at inilibas ang phone ko. "is she still up?" tanong ko sa sarili ko.

Nahiga ako sa kama at idiniall ang number ni Kara.

"hello?" she answered. "did I wake yu?" tanong ko.

"uh... No, why? is something wrong?"

I sighed remembering Eunwoo. "not with me... But with my friend"

"hmm.... Which friend?" she asked."Jimin or the other guys?" she continued.

"no.. No... Uh its... Eunwoo, you know him right?"

"Y-yeah... H-he's Jungkook friend, right? H-he's your friend too?" she asked.

I chuckled and nodded. "Of course, we are all great friends" sabi ko.

"we just got home actually... They were too wasted to go home by themselves, and luckily Jungkook didn't drink that much."

"well.. A-are they okay? what's... What's wrong with Eunwoo?" she asked sounding worried.

I smiled to myself, I missed this. Being able to tell someone how my day went.

I groaned. "don't get me started with that kid" I sighed. "THE poor kids pretty wasted and heartbroken.... I guess the girl he loves.. Likes someone else or something... He really loves that girl you know, he said he even accepts the girls daughter and accept her as his own.... Don't you think the girl is being dumb for rejecting Eunwoo? I mean he's a great guy and it's the girls loss..... "

There was a long silence.

"Kara?"

"Kara are you still there?" I asked.

"oh.. Y-Yeah... Sorry..." she answered. "did I blabber too much? sorry it's just that.... I feel bad for Eunwoo" I sighed.

"but they're fine, I mean the guys are fine to answer your question" I chuckled.

"wait... You and Eunwoo are friends?" she asked. "like.. Close friends?"

I chuckled and sat up resting my head on my beds headboard. "hmmm... We're pretty close... To the point we're we give eachother advices"

"advices?"

"hmm.. Eunwoo was the one who told me to get you back. And not be afraid of the consequences. He said I don't have to choose between career and love. Because I can just choose both" I smiled.

"and I'm glad I took his advice, because if not, I wouldn't be talking to you tright now."i smiled again.

" oh... H-he's.... He's good with advising then.. "

" He is... The total opposite of me" I chuckled.

"I told him to confess to the girl he likes, but it didn't turn out great" I sighed. There was a long silence again.

Silence.......

Silence.......

"Kara?"

"Do you think that? I mean is that what you really think?"she asked.

"huh?what do you mean?"tanong ko.

"Do you really think the girls dumb for rejecting Eunwoo? Do you really think that?"

"well...if you really think about it yes,because Eunwoo have been there for her since she's pregnant...and now she's seeing another man and just throws everything Eunwoo did for her"sabi ko.

"don't you think the girl has other reasons? that she needed to reject Eunwoo? I mean ..maybe she doesnt want to hurt him,but she just needed to do that...not because she's seeing another man but....what if its her ex the father of her child?what if she's just trying to give her child a normal family?maybe she doesnt want to hurt Eunwoo but there is no other option than to reject him..."

" okay.. Okay.. First calm down and don't get fired Up" I chuckled. "It's not like we're talking about you here" I laughed.

"I'm sorry... Just don't say that she's making a bad decision for rejecting Eunwoo" she sghed.

"I... I didn't say that" I chuckled and she sighed again. "well whatever her reasons are I just hope it's for the best" sabi ko. I may not know who the girl is but I really hope she made a wise decision.

"let's... Let's drop this topic.... Clearly this is not a conversation for us" I laughed.

I'm not regretting that I opened up with Kara about this but I jut don't get why she's being sensitive about te topic. Or maybe I should've been more careful since this is like a cheating topic and I almost made the same mistake.

"actually.. Uhm.... I'm quite sleepy" she yawned.

I smiled. "okay, goodnight then love"

"goodnight"

"dream of me, I love you" I said. "hmm.. I love you too" she replied making my heart flutter.

"I'll see you tomorrow" I whispered. "see you.." she said before hanging up.

//

I woke up the next morning feeling nervous as hell. It's like the feeling when we go up the stage to perform.

I went out to get a haircut, because I wanted to look presentable infront of KARA'S family. I spent the rest of the day with Jimin, trying to calm my heart and my mind. Because I'm literally nervous I feel like I could shit myself.

Then after hanging out with Jimin just talking about random stuff, I went to take a shower and started getting ready for dinner. Kara texted me earlier that the dinner will be held at their house.

Now I feel anxious than ever. I don't even know what to say to them, I didn't wanna write a speech to practice either because that would should so awkward and insincere.

After I showered I got dressed inwhte polo paired with the Khaki jacket and pants from Jaybaek couture the one Jimin chose yesterday.

pinagmasdan ko ang sarili ko sa salamin."I look decent." sabi ko.

I checked my hair and got my keys before heading out my room.

"ang pogi naman niyan, papi!" sigaw ni hobi hyung nung makita niya ako. "ayos ba hyung?" tanong ko sa kanila.

"I'm literally so nervous right now" sabi ko.

"sus dinner daw... Dinner ba talaga oh baka naman secret wedding?" biro ni Jin hyung.

"hyung naman!" tumawa ako. "kung hindi secret wedding... Mamamanhikan ka?" tumawag sila at napailing naman ako.

"seriously you look great, hyung" sabi ni jungkook na naka thumbs up ang dalawang kamay. "syempre ako namili niyang susuotin niya eh" proud na sabi ni Jimin.

"wish me luck guys , sana hindi ako bugbugin ni Kayden hyung" biro ko. "Kara won't let him hurt you, don't worry" sabi ni Yoongi hyung.

"sige na baka malate ka pa, bawas points yon" sabi ni Namjoon hyung.

"goodluck Taehyung ah! May you be a successful son-in-law!!" they all shouted.

"hindi nga ako Mamamanhikan....... Sa ngayon but maybe soon" I smiled.

"asus!! Sige na alis na"

"Thank you guys, see you later" sabi ko. "ah! Taehyung ah wait!" pahabol ni Jimin. I stopped in my tracks and turned to face them again. "catch!" sigaw ni Jimin sabay bato ng kung ano.

I looked at them with what-the-fuck look when I cached the thing Jimin threw at me.

"Yah!" sigaw ko tsaka sila nagtawanang lahat. "WHAT?? You never knew what might happen safety first" tawa ni Jimin.

Kahit kailan talaga.

"oh and see you tomorrow wag ka ng umuwi, we'll lock the door" sai ni Jimin.

I shook my head at those dork heads. "whatever, I'll see you later guys" I laughed and really headed out of the door.

"What were they thinking? I'm just going there for dinner.. It's not like Kara and I are alone" I mumbled to myself and put the square plastic in my back pocket.

Nandito na ako sa tapat ng bahay nila Kara. And on my way here dumaan muna ako sa flower shop para bumili ng bulaklak.

I was actually practicing on how to say "Goodevening Tito... Tita"

I cleared my throat again. "Goodevening.... Goodevening"

I swallowed the lump in my throat and took a deep breath. Kinuha ko ang mg bulaklak na pinamili ko at bumaba na sa sasakyan,.

"This is it" I mumbled and pressed the doorbell. My heart is literally beating so fast and I can feel my palms sweating.

The gate opened and Kara smiled at me. "wow! You look Beautiful" I breathed out after I composed myself.

"this is for my beautiful girl" I said and handed her the bouquet. "Thank you and you look handsome, kind sir" she giggled.

"come on" sabi niya. She waited for m but I couldn't move a single step. "let's go.... Are you nervous?" she laughed.

"my palms are sweating and my hearts racing" I said. "what if they're still mad at me?" tanong ko.

"I know one thing to calm you down" she said. She looked around making sure no one is looking.

"what is---" she cut me off by gently pressing her lips on mine. We stayed like that longer than a minute and I smiled.

"that'll do it" she said when she pulled away. "I can use one more" I said and she rolled her eyes ata me.

"seriously" I laughed and pulled her in for a kiss. I kissed her slowly and she kissed back.

"okay.. We need to head inside now" she giggled when we both pulled away.

"that surely calms me down" I said. "let's go inside they're waiting" she said and grabbed my hand.

She opened the door and Tito Dominique, Tita Serenity and Kayden hyung is there waiting for us. I immediately bowed when I saw them.

"Goodevening Tito Dominique" I said. Tito Dominique smiled and patted my back. "Goodevening Tita, this one's for you" I said and handed her the bouquet.

"how thoughtful of you.. Thank you sweetie" she smiled and pulled me in for a hug.

I turned to face Kayden hyung. "Goodevening hyung" I was actually more scared to Kayden hyung than to Tito Dom.

I didn't expect Kayden hyung to greet me back but I was surprised when he held out his hand signalling me to do our handshake.

"let's go eat" Tita Serenity said excitedly. Me and Kara looked at eachother, she smiled at me and held my hand and followed them to the dining table.
