Chapter Twenty-Four.

It's been almost a week since that day happened, and Jisung didn't send flowers for the past few days. Mark's co-workers were asking him if something happened between them, hence maybe the reason Jisung doesn't deliver bouquets anymore. He just ignores them and doesn't answer their questions.

He's sitting on his swivel chair in his office, staring at nothing. He only moves when someone calls his name.

"Mark Lee!" A familiar figure enters his office. When he sees Mark's face expression, he furrows his eyebrows. "Hey why are you sad?"

Mark quickly glances at Donghyuck and sighs, "Jisung and I had a little... Fuck."

"You fucked?" Donghyuck shockingly asks and Mark aggressively shakes his head. "What happened, then? Don't just cut your sentence and say fuck, especially when it's not the right place to say it after."

"We had a little fight. And it's been almost a week, and he doesn't deliver flowers anymore." Mark says, mentally punching himself.

"Oh. You miss him, don't you?" Donghyuck asks, voice tone is a mixed of teasing and seriousness, if that's even possible.

"Maybe I do. I told him this is not the right time for us to be together and that he would find someone better than me. I'm a jerk, ain't I?"

"Yes, you're a jerk!" Donghyuck exclaims, nodding at his bestfriend. "How could you say that to someone who's been in love with you for so long? He probably has his eyes only for you since he was younger, and you hurt him."

Mark groans, "I'm so stupid. I want to apologize." He turns to the guy in front of him, "You don't think our age gap is... weird?"

Donghyuck hums. "It's a bit questionable as he's in love with you since he was a kid, yet reasonable now that you're both of legal age. But I don't think it's weird." he then grins. "Still, Mark hyung, it's up to you. It's up to the both of you."

"You know, Donghyuck, I don't know what's more weird, liking someone five years younger than me, or you being so serious?" Mark suddenly laughs.

Donghyuck rolls his eyes, "Of course, I can be serious too."

"But hey, thank you."

"You're welcome."

"What are you doing here, by the way?"

"Oh." Donghyuck laughs, "I have a problem. It's your turn to help me."

"What?"

"Our monthsary is coming and I don't know what to give him." Mark laughs loudly and Donghyuck just glares at him.
