Noona I Need Your Help!
"Ya, Kang Daesung, have you lost your mind? How dare you talk like that to your noona? If we weren't in this big place, aish. Ever since Bigbang's comeback you boys have been on cloud 9, no make that cloud 99. Even still, you can't go around behaving like that to your elders, ARE YOU LISTENING?" Bom screams, absolutely incensed.
Wait, CL, Chaerin-ah confessing to me, for real? Not possible, but would Dara lie? NO way, REally? NO? NO! Of course not.
Dara's words replay in my head [That must have been one helluva a love confession for you to have that expression on your face. So when's the wedding?] It was an automatic response to yell back at her, but I really did not mean to curse at Dara noona. I think/thought she was in on the prank. Now she looks so hurt, shitake shitake shitake. I need to get the hell out of here so I can think.
Bom's words to me are quietier, softer, "So, CL really didn't tell you? But you were talking for a while." I guess she sees my confused expression.
I am having a hard time processing the last five minutes of my life. First, that thing with CL and now getting chewed out by Bom. I really need to figure out what the hell is going on. My only choice, is to return to her, the girl who just ripped out my soul with a simple prank.
I don't want to look. I don't want to turn around, but walking backwards through this throng will be next to impossible. Ignoring the questioning and increasingly more concerned looks from Dara noona and Bom noona, I slowly turn around searching for the only face that matters right now, well, if I am honest, the only one that has mattered for a long time.
Flashback
"Jiyoung-ah, Jiyoung, listen I have to race to another schedule, you can finish this fascinating explanation of the difference between Chanel's fall and spring stitch patterns later. I am sure that your parents had no idea and were not trying to cheap out on you with last season's handbag." As usual my sarcasm is lost on the young girl. When I hang up I hear a light chuckle from the peanut gallery.
"Another riveting disussion with your girlfriend I see. How does your brain stand it?" CL adds, ever the critic.
"First off she is not my girlfriend, as you well know. After the whole Family Outing crew outed me on national tv, we have gotten closer, but I haven't asked her to be my girlfriend." I retort quickly adding, "and I doubt I ever will."
"No need to get testy, she IS a cute girl and she likes you alot. The fact that she has the mental acumen of a gnat is just a teeny tiny flaw." she responds.
"I wish I could argue, but sometimes I wonder if she has ever read a book that didn't have color photos." My exasperation is hard to hide from CL. "Just because on variety shows I act silly and goofy doesn't mean I am like that all the time."
"Why are you getting upset, I am the one who has lent you tons of books remember, books you have yet to return mind you. Besides, I like both sides of Dae Oppa, the silly and the serious. We still haven't finished our debate on reunification, your utopic view of the world could destroy 20 years of South Korean progress." replies CL never one to pass on the opportunity for a heated political debate.
"Oh! here we go with this, you anti's really need another reason against it. We are Korean, they are Korean what else do we need to discuss?" "Anyway, I wasn't lying I really have to get going. SBS waits for no man, and since its the only station YG hasn't fought with I would like to keep relations in tact." I reluctantly grab my stuff as I head out the door.
"Leave it to you to try and get the last word. Find me when your done, I'll be around. I need a shoulder to lament about yet another embarassing radio show confession to Teddy. Why can't I just move one already?" CL poutily wonders.
I chuckle to myself, wondering the same thing. Probably becuase Teddy is a like a match setting girls' hormones on fire all over the world. Leave it to Chaerin to think she could avoid the inevitable. A better question, one I would never ask out loud, why do I keep letting her use my shoulder to complain about a relationship I am wholeheartdly against? I really do love her pout, though. It makes her already gorgeous lips look that much more kissable.
End Flashback
What a silly conversation to rememebr at a time like this. Why is my mind replaying that scene as I trudge with leaden feet to what will surly undue me completely. It's not like we haven't had a million such conversatoins since CL entered YG and began her failed Teddy-quest. I guess I should feel special that she lets me see her nerdy and girly side when most people only get Ms. Charisma. I hated leaving that day, I would have much rather stayed with CL "letting" her win the debate and rubbing her back as she cried about Teddy.
No matter what Dara and Bom say, the idea that somehow CL is going to say she likes me is so improbable its not even worth giving a second thought. Well, this is probably my third or fourth thought on the subject, but whatever. I, more then probably even them, know CL's ideal type. The multi-talented "artist" like GD whose closet she spends an uncormforably excessive amount of time in; or Yanggeng all model thin and wierd; and how can I ever forget her #1 dream guy Teddy hyung, I am the fool that even helped her find the stuffing for that ridiculous Teddy pillow.
This CL, Chae Rin-ah, my good FRIEND, could not possibly have been about to confess to me: Big Bang's "really good singer" or even better "managerdol*" thanks for that one TOP hyung.
Ever since YG told me to always dye my hair so I don't look so ordinary, I have known my place in the BigBang attractiveness hierarchy. Hell even 2NE1's dough boy manager has more references to cute on Nate than me.
I get it, really. Ahjummas and Grandma's love me, people my age, not so much. By the time they see the great body, hear the voice, or learn that I am not some bumbling idiot, they have already run screaming from my face.
If only I had gone ahead and let them "fix" me up a bit when I had that accident. Then I could proudly accept CL's confession; that is if she was actually going to confess, which she most certainly is not.
Just like before, she grabs my hand guiding me back to the speakers. I am happy for the chance to collect my thoughts. God CL, why do you have to be so freaking sexy? I think to myself as I follow her to the small alcove.
"Let me speak first please, because I may never again get the courage, then you can say whatever it is you walked/marched over here to say." CL says in a flurry. I can't even bring myself to wonder what she has to say to me.
"Ok," I respond meekly. This isn't the first time she has taken charge of one of our conversations. When CL gets in serious mode its better to let her lead.
"The thing is, I think you are sexy as hell. Wait, before you tell me your not, just hush. Aside from your drool worthy body." is she really talking about me? "the way your hair falls over your forehead is hot, the way you walk is hot, the way you smile is hot, the way you laugh when you are really laughing and not just humoring people is hot." Wow she is using the word hot ALOT.
I am trying to focus on her words, really I am. But she is talking so animatedly that her chest is bouncing up and down. Every now and then her mole peaks out of her cleavage and... HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO CONCENTRATE WITH HER BREAST MOLE STARING RIGHT AT ME?
Focus Daesung, Focus.
"...the way you sing is hot, the way I can be myself around you, not worrying about being 2NE1's leader, or GD's fashion ace, or seoul city's baddest, but just lee chae rin the girl..... is very very hot." Silly CL you don't like me your just hurt of Teddy's rejection and looking for a safe rebound guy... Daesung Oppa to the rescue.
"CL, I know you are still hurt about the thing with Teddy, but we both know I am no where near hot and you are way way WAY out of my league," I begin to explain the flaws in her "confession," but she cuts me off.
"Stop, just stop."
"Why can't you believe that I would like you. why do you always put yourself down." "You know what, forget it, just forget it. The ugliest thing about you isn't your face Kang Daesung, its your lack of confidence and the way you are always putting yourself down. Its becoming really boring. When you find a way to like yourself, when you get your confidence back, call me. Until then, the way you are now, makes me sick."
shit, why is she so pissed? I don't get it. What did I say wrong? Wait, CL get back here. Of course, by the time I find my voice she has already reached reinforcements. Not wanting to get into another rumble with a pissed off Bom, I don't follow her.
Deep down I know she is right, where HAD all my confidnece gone. Ever since the long hiatus and Family Outing ending, I can't seem to shake off this feeling of inferiority. I am an idol, a successful idol in a majorly popular gorup. But why do I feel more and more like a deformed uncle put on varierty shows for laughs. The only person that actually takes me seriously as a man, is Hyori noona. When I am with her I feel like a million bucks. She refuses to allow me to wallow in self pity.
I need Hyroi noona right now, she is the only person who can help me get my pride back. Then and only then will I be able to find CL and make her mine.

*Taken from netizens love of mixing nouns with the word idol: beastdol, modeldol etc. I combined manager (since I rememebr Top saying when he first met Dae he thought he was one of the managers) and idol.
So sorry to Jiyoung, she fit in the story, but is actually a really lovely girl and my fave in Kara (ahem I have a thing for maknaes). Kamilias don't hate me.
