Ara arrived in the Elgang a few years ago already. After her arrived Elesis – her best fried and Add – a … crazy person. Everyone is nice to her. Rena, Aisha, Elsword, Raven, Elesis. Add and Eve not that much but it was probably a part of being somehow related to Nasods. But Chung is probably the nicest person she met. Although they say that after he became Deadly Chaser he became more cold and different she didn't think this way. Of course since she hasn't met him before he already gained his title I can't judge but she could understand him. The feeling of wanting to protect something even if it means to become evil. He has Hamel and his father and she has Aren. She is a Yama Raja. She have took this dark path to become stronger so did Chung. She believes in his kindness. Ara covered her face with one of her hands and started crying. These unshared feelings were too much for her to handle.

"I love you!" she whispered weakly.

"Who might this lucky guy be?" Chung was standing on the window looking at Ara and she blushed deep red.

"C-c-chung! What a-a-are you doing here?"

"Oh avoiding the question?" He said with a devilish smirk. He wasn't going to drop the subject that easily.

"I-i-it's n-n-othing! How d-did you get here?"

"Oh stuttering? Embarrassed?" Her blush became even redder.

"CHUNG STOP!" she yelled. She immediately felt bad for yelling at him. "Sorry"

"Don't worry its my fault that I teased you. You have the right to don't want to tell me. After all I'm probably not going to keep your secret right? " She saw a little hint of pain in his eyes. She wanted to tell him but she didn't want to confess. She knew she was going to be rejected. After all Chung was in love with Eve from the first time he saw her. He even once told Ara about how much he loved Eve. She remembered the pain she felt then. That day Ara cried a lot. That night and all the following were filled with sadness and pain. Yet she didn't give up on Chung. Maybe because of Elesis's support too. That day ruined her inside but Elesis helped her to pick up all of the parts.

Ara was running thought the streets of Velder crying. Searching for a place to hide. Somewhere where she can hide and never be found again. She ran and ran. Ran and left behind Velder. Her dreams were crushed. She was crushed. But she didn't want to give up. She loved him. Ara was already in some forest. She fell on her knees and started crying. She cried for hours. Elesis was coming back from a dungeon she just finished and heard loud cries. She ran to the source of the sound and found the usually cheerful and smiling Ara all alone crying. She understood that the poor girl has kept it all inside. She just silently went to hug her. Ara hugged back and continued crying. Elesis waited for Ara to tell her herself. She wasn't going to push her. Even if she didn't want to tell Elesis was all right as long as she stopped crying. After Ara told her Elesis felt really bad for her. They talked a lot but still Ara's sadness was there and Elesis knew that she was crying at night. The story of the start of Elesis and Ara's friendship. Filled with tears and compassion but yet a true friendship.

Chung was still standing at the window with a hurt expression and Ara couldn't watch anymore. She hated seeing him sad because seeing his smile helped her keep her own. She had to think of something to say.

"I-i-love Pikachu!" Actually when she said that she didn't understand until after she already told it (yes I noticed after I wrote it too) that actually some people refer to Chung as Pikachu! She felt so stupid. She just indirectly confessed! Ara hoped he doesn't realize this. This pause after she said for his response felt like days. Then he started laughing. The cute laugh Ara loved so much.

"You still watch this show?" Ara blushed. It was true that she watches it.

"D-don't laugh!" She took her pillow and threw it at him but he caught it.

"Now its mine~" Ara stood up and went to the window to try take it from him. He put it back where she couldn't reach it.

"Return it!" She said and reached out her hand to try taking it. Chung jumped inside and put it high in the air and she started jumping to get it. Chung actually enjoyed watching her desperate tries but felt after a few minutes he felt pity and he lowered it and put it in her hands. They looked at each other for a long time trying to figure out the others thoughts. Ara looked at him. He was looking at her with kindness or… maybe love? After all a whole year has passed since he had told her he loves Eve. Maybe he started to return her feelings? Ara felt better now. Calmer. She was staring to have hopes again. Maybe he did forget about Eve? And Add is here now and it seems that he and Eve share some kind of relationship so maybe Chung decided that he doesn't love Eve anymore? Ara was going to remember that look on his face. Forever. She loved him very much. This wasn't going to change. She loved him from the day she met him. Now for the fist time she had hopes of him loving her back.

"I see you're alright now" Chung said and went to the door. Just before he walked out of the room he said "If you ever cry at night again please don't just keep your sadness to yourself. I will always be there to cheer you up." He closed the door and walked out of the room. That night Ara went to bed almost immediately with the thought of that expression. She dreamt a happy dream.
