Childhood friends // Mark Lee

• Ch 21

The boys all rushed through the hospital halls until they reached Eunji's room.

"What's wrong? Is she okay? Is she awake? Did something bad happen to her? Did she-"

Mark got cut off by the nurse. "One question at a time please." She giggled. "And she's doing just fine. She actual woke up."

All the boys looked at each other before letting out a big breath they didn't even know they were holding.

"I called you to let you know. You guys can go see her." She smiled at the boys.

"Thank you." Haechan said to her before him and the others walked inside.

Eunji heard the door knob and saw the door open. That's when she saw the guys she's been wanting to see after she woke up.

"Eunji Noona!" Jisung ran to her and gave her a big hug. "I was so scared." He said with a shaky voice.

Eunji was surprised by the hug but nonetheless she still hugged him back. "Hi to you as well Jisungie."

Jisung smiled at her as a tear ran down his cheek.

"Why are you crying?" She questioned. "I'm here and well, nothing happened." She gave him a sweet and heartwarming smile.

"He's just been having some rough days while you were asleep." Jaemin said to her. "It's nice to see you up and awake."

"Thanks Jaemin."

"Took you long enough you know? Did you have a nice beauty sleep sleeping beauty?" Haechan told her.

Eunji giggled. "It's nice to see you to chan."

Haechan couldn't help but smile. "Come here." He went to her and gave her a hug. "I'm glad you're okay."

Jeno, Renjun and chenle gave her a hug and said their things to her before saying their farewells.

"You're leaving already? You just got here." She pouted.

"We're not leaving." Haechan said to her. "We're just gonna let a specific someone be alone with you for a min." And with that, they all left the room and closed the door.

These ants really just-

"Hi minhyung."

Mark snapped out of his daze and looked at her. He gave her his nice welcoming and soft smile.

"Hey Eunji," he started. "I'm really glad you're okay."

She chuckled. "I've been through worse anyways."

He looked at her in worry.

"Ah- don't worry though! I'm okay! Besides, that was all in the past." She smiled.

He was still looking at her. He wanted to make sure she wasn't lying to him, but of course no one would be okay after what just happened. Especially if it's been happening ever since back then.
