After a couple of weeks, Nabi's ankle had healed but her ribs were still in pain. Her bruises were very much visible but her stitches had gotten removed that was left with a small light scar that was promised to go away. Kwon Jiyong had to eventually go back to work. Just like Nabi had to.

Nabi sat in her car as a hired driver drove her to the company. She really missed Sang Hyuk and Lina, but decided not to think to much about it. She decided to wear something that would cover up most of her bruises. The bruises on her face were easily covered by makeup as well as around her neck. On the outside, she looked completely normal, which was what she was going for.

Nabi took the elevator up to the top floor where she requested the shareholders to be waiting for her in one of the conference rooms. She made an exit from the elevators, passing employees who instantly bowed at seeing her as they all whispered to themselves. Nabi walked straight to conference room one and she opened the door herself. The men and women in the room went noticeably stiff at her appearance. Nabi rounded the large desk and stood at the head as she eyed everyone, knowing who was guilty and who was innocent.

"Thank you all for gathering here." She started. "I just want to make a few things clear. None of you will make decisions for this company without consulting with me first. Even then, I'll have the last say in whatever we discuss."

One shareholder scoffed. "Who do you think you are?" She snapped. "Just because your father got arrested doesn't mean you can start playing chairwoman."

Nabi gave her a glare. "I am the chairwoman." She snapped. "I hold my mother's missing shares as well as the shares you all gave me willingly. Therefore I will run my business." She scoffed with a smile. "Does it feel good to have my father's plans fail? You gave up your shares listening to an idiot. From this point on, all major decisions will go through me and I'll have the final say. If any of you want out, I don't mind buying out your shares."

With that Nabi left the room, not caring to hear any of their last bit of arguments. She walked confidently to the elevator and waited for it to open. As soon as she got in and the elevator doors closed, she began laughing. She was extremely happy to finally be able to do as she pleases in her own company. She laughed happily at their sour faces and sour glares they gave her. She couldn't help but love being in power. She could finally be proud of her company. She had a lot of cleaning up to do but she was willing to work hard on it. Nothing was going to stop her from making her mom proud of her.

................

Nabi stood at the stove in her dorm, cooking. She was humming to herself, happily. She felt triumph in her duties as a chairwoman. She wore a large t-shirt and shorts as she cooked. Her short hair was put into a ponytail with her shorter strands falling out. Nabi flinched when she felt arms snake their way around her waist and felt a body press up against her back. However, she giggled after feeling Kwon Jiyong landing kisses on her cheeks down to her shoulder.

"I heard you did well!" He smiled happily.

Nabi turned around in his grasp and wrapped her arms around his neck still holding the spoon she was cooking with. She stared at him and smiled with redden cheeks.

"Thank you for dealing with this." She says waving around her. "With all of me."

Kwon Jiyong smiled. "I would deal with everything you give me." He says ignoring her statement.

"I'm serious." Nabi snapped playfully. "Thank you."

Kwon Jiyong went to cup one cheek as he brushed his thumb lightly over her scar. "It's because I love you. You'll have to deal with me now."

Nabi chuckled, ignoring how her heart skipped a beat at hearing the L word. She reached his level and planted her lips over his. Kwon Jiyong placed his arms around her waist, squeezing her tighter against him. Nabi felt his smooth lips against hers, giving her warmth. Her heart began beating erratically at feeling him against her. Their lips moved in sync with one another, as Kwon Jiyong walked her backwards. Her back hit the counter and her hands went up, running them through his hair.

"Wow, I came here for dinner but we're getting dessert." Seungri says, causing the two to break apart.

"What are you doing here?" Kwon Jiyong snapped.

"We were invited here to eat dinner, remember?" Seungri says shaking his head. "Can I eat this bag of chips?" Seungri asks as he took the bag off the counter and headed back out into the living room.

Kwon Jiyong looked at Nabi who had a hand over her mouth as she giggled. "After all this time, he continues to disturb us."

"I could kill him without a blink of an eye to be honest." Kwon Jiyong joked.

"I brought pie." Lina walked in carrying two boxes stacked up on each other.

"With your own money, or the company's card? Because I still haven't gotten it back." Nabi asked jokinly.

Lina laughed awkwardly. "That's not important. What's important is, if it's banana flavored or chocolate?" She chuckled. "Anyways, is there anything I can help you with?"

Nabi chuckled and shook her head. "No. I can handle it from here. Thank you Lina."

Lina smiled. "Alright. I'll be in the living room, watching television."

Nabi nodded while looking back at Kwon Jiyong. "Who is she? She was here last time but she didn't do or say much. Now she's back."

Nabi smiled. "Her name is Jung Lina. She played assistant for awhile. I would love her to continue working as my assistant but she says that the only reason she took the job was because she felt that I had needed her. After seeing everything with my dad and stuff, she figured her time at my company is done." She sighed.

"Was she good at what she did?" Kwon Jiyong asks.

"Lina has a good talent with fashion, and she doesn't even know it." Nabi explained.

"I'm here," Bae Jang Mi announced as she entered the kitchen, "and look who I brought?" She smiled.

"Why are you announcing my arrival?" Park Bom says entering the kitchen. "Hello, I'm Park Bom." She smiled as she bowed towards Nabi.

Nabi instantly straightened out her posture and bowed politely. "Nice to meet you. I'm Park Nabi. I'm a huge fan."

"Thank you." Park Bom says.

"Daesung says he can't make it cause he's busy with his show." Bae Jang Mi informed.

"Yeah he called already." Kwon Jiyong says. "Jung Lina brought pie. What did you two bring?" He asked staring at their empty hands.

"I brought my fork and napkins for this dinner if that's alright." Park Bom piped in.

Bae Jang Mi gasped. "Me too!"

They both cheered happily as they left the kitchen talking. "They're too alike." Kwon Jiyong says shaking his head.

............

After Nabi set the last plate filled with food onto the coffee table, she sat herself down next to Kwon Jiyong. Lina pulled out a box and placed it over the table. Meanwhile, Seungri entered the living room carrying wine glasses for everyone. He placed them all onto the table as he sat next to Lina with a smirk.

"I also brought wine." Lina smiled, ignoring Nabi's nervous expression.

She pulled out the wine from the box and forced off the corkscrew with a loud pop. She began pouring the wine into each glass. After pouring her glass last, she sat down and lifted her glass up.

"To Nabi's freedom!" She cheered.

Everyone repeated and began clinking the glasses against one another before finally drinking. Kwon Jiyong took a light sip before placing it back down. He thought it would be alright if Nabi would drink, even just a little. Joo Won didn't seem to stop her either. As she took a sip, he just sat there and spoke with his wife.

Everyone began digging into their dinner, speaking happily with one another as if it was a class reunion. Park Bom had openly asked about the relationship between the two and wished them well. It wasn't long before her, and Bae Jang Mi, fell silent, eating the delicious food that Nabi had made. The men, openly spoke as they began drinking. The wine had soon run out, which caused the youngest, Seungri, to make a trip to the store to get a bunch of bottles of soju. The youngest was actually Bae Jang Mi but she refused full heartedly on moving. After getting drinks, they continued speaking again. The more alcohol they consumed, the more freely they talked. Meanwhile, Kwon Jiyong watched Nabi closely, making sure her intake on alcohol wasn't excessive.

Within the next four hours, the time had gotten deeper into the night. Seungri knocked out flat on the floor, the crystal green bottle of soju in his grip with a spoon hanging in the mouth of the glass. He was on about singing his hit song, which everyone knew was a song Kwon Jiyong had composed and sung. Seungri had nothing to really do with the song. Choi Seung-Hyun and Bae Jang Mi were cuddled up, asleep on Nabi's sofa. Youngbae and Hyorin had gone home after awhile, knowing how full their schedules were the next day. They weren't the only ones to leave early, Joo Won took his wife with him since they both had a meeting early in the morning. Park Bom slept shamelessly on the recliner with a blanket covering her body, which seemed normal, but on her blanket were crumbs from pieces of bread she was eating before she had fallen asleep drunk. Lina, on the other hand, sat across from Kwon Jiyong and Nabi with a bright smile and wide awake eyes.

"Anyways, it's getting really late. I have to go home now." She stood up off the floor perfectly, as if she hadn't inhaled a bunch of alcoholic beverages. "You'll be alright taking care of her right? I thought she was allergic to alcohol but she seems fine." Lina says speaking to a sober Kwon Jiyong.

"Yeah. I can take care of her but are you alright? You drank quite a lot." Kwon Jiyong says.

Lina chuckled and picked up her purse, sliding the handle up her arm and letting it rest on her shoulder. "Trust me, I can hold my liquor." She smiled happily. She dug through her bag before pulling out a card and slid it across the table to Kwon Jiyong. "It was fun spending money on food without having my card declined. I'm returning it so please be sure Nabi gets that. Anyways, I'll be on my way now. See you all in the near future." She waved as she exited from the living room.

"There is no future!" Nabi shouted, causing Seungri to wince on the ground from her sudden outburst.

Kwon Jiyong looked at her and furrowed his eye brows in confusion at her finally speaking up after being quiet for awhile. "What do you mean?" He asked.

Nabi looked at Kwon Jiyong and pouted sadly. "Ajussi, I'm pretty drunk and I don't know how I got here. Can you take care of me? I know famous people. I can take you to a concert of your choice." She slurred out holding the bottle of soju.

Chuckling silently, he nodded. "Of course."

"Thank you." Nabi smiled. "I don't deserve your generosity." She sighed.

"Why? You seem very kind." Kwon Jiyong says, playing along with her drunk chatter.

Nabi snorted obnoxiously. "Kind?" She chuckled humorlessly. "The only thing kind about me is.....is....oh my god I can't think of a thing." She says in disbelief. "I'm such a bitch." She gasped and covered her mouth while chuckling. "I just swore. Oh my gosh. Nara will think I'm a bad role model."

"You're not a bitch Nabi and Nara will never think of you in that way." Kwon Jiyong says with a small smile at her cuteness.

"I am. I am a B word. You knew my name without me telling you it. Ajussi, that's how much of a B word I am. You knew my name without me needing to tell you it." She sighed out. "I had this boyfriend who, believe me or not, is a very popular idol. He's so beautiful. He looked the way the sun felt on your skin during a cold day." She smiled happily. "Every time he held my hand, or spoke to me, hell even when he looked at me, all I felt was warmth. He had this bright smile that would turn your sour day into the best day in the world. He speaks with care towards me and never disrespected me in anyway. Everything he did, he did it so flawlessly. He worked hard and there isn't a day that goes by that I don't admire him for his love of music. I even slapped him once. I was so drunk, just like I am now, but I'm not mad. Not at him anyways. He did this thing where he called me a Dwaeji for a stupid nickname and I always complained about it." She turned to Kwon Jiyong in her drunken state and whispered, "But between you and I Ajussi, I secretly enjoyed it."

Kwon Jiyong felt his heart swell at her sweet words. "You like him?"

Nabi scoffed. "Like?" She questioned while shaking her head. "No! Absolutely not." She says taking another shot of soju before Kwon Jiyong could stop her, so he let her be to continue whatever she was going to say. "The word like is not strong enough. I love him. I love that guy! If there is a word stronger than love, then I would use that to describe how I felt about him." She slurred out in a happy tone. "But, does he love me?" She asked, and before Kwon Jiyong could proudly answer with a yes, she spoke back up. "Of course not. How can someone who makes me feel like the prettiest rose in a garden filled with other roses, love me after what I've done?" Nabi asked.

"It's not your-" Kwon Jiyong started but was cut short from continuing.

"Ajussi, do you know how much I hate myself?" Nabi asked as she looked at her reflection through the metal pot that sat in the middle of the table. "Every time I look at him, he looks at me with such loving eyes but I don't deserve him." She says, her attitude was starting to change from bubbly to angry, like it always did. "I hate myself so much." She slamming a fist on the table.

"Nabi, it's no reason to get angry." Kwon Jiyong says concerned.

"You don't understand Ajussi!" Nabi snapped. "I hate myself so much. I can't stand looking at myself in the mirror. My own reflection infuriates me. How could he forgive me so easily." Before Kwon Jiyong knew it, Nabi began crying. "He forgave me so easily. I just....just can't forgive myself."

Kwon Jiyong took Nabi into his arms as she cried into his chest. Nabi didn't even know it was Kwon Jiyong. She just let herself cry. Kwon Jiyong's heart broke at seeing her like this. Usually when she was drunk, she was angry, which she was. But she was angry at herself. She couldn't hit herself the way she hit Kwon Jiyong, so she just cried. The sorrow she felt for what she did, showed clearly through her glossy eyes. She didn't forgive herself. Even after Kwon Jiyong forgave her.

"Cheer up baby! Cheer up baby!" Nabi began to sing Twice's song into his chest while she cried.

Kwon Jiyong just stood still shaking his head. He definitely loves her. Every part of her. From her head to her toe. From her flaws to her perfection. She, despite what she had done, will forever be the one for him. He has never felt like this towards anyone and wasn't about to stop the feeling he was getting just from looking at Nabi.

"Ajussi, can you take me home?" She asked, stopping in the middle of singing.

"Alright. I think it's time for you to go to bed." Kwon Jiyong says helping her stand up.

"Woah! How'd you do that? I'm home already? They should promote you to Ajussi boss." She slurred with a chuckle. "I never got promoted before." She whined but then chuckled. "Well duh! Cause I'm the Chairwoman!" She laughed.

Kwon Jiyong got her to lay on her bed. He began stripping off her jean jacket that he knew would make her feel uncomfortable while she slept. She just laid there, sleeping soundlessly. Kwon Jiyong smiled and climbed into bed with her. Instantly feeling Nabi mold herself into his side. She wrapped her arms around him and placed her head on his chest.

"Where were you? I missed you so much." Nabi says in her tired voice as she felt Kwon Jiyong.

"I love you Nabi."

"I love you too, Ajussi." She replied causing Kwon Jiyong to give a deadpan look before falling asleep next to her.
