MISTER LEE

Fourty four

"Baby?"

"Hmmm?"

"This is random." He laughs. "But, do you want our child to be boy or a girl?"

I smile and peck his lips.

"What do you want?"

"I actually, want, both..."

"You want twins?"

"I mean... I'm already grateful for one. Either boy or a girl, but I really hope it's like... both. It would be nice to take care of a girl but I'm afraid I'd get too overprotective of her and kill every men that tries it with her. I also want a boy but I'm afraid he won't grow up as a rightful man that we want him to be. He might... you know, just fuck around and leave broken hearts."

He looks at me defeatedly.

"Like what I did and I really don't want that."

I'm actually shocked to hear it from him. He did broke hearts and fuck around but that doesn't mean our child would inherit things like that from him. Besides, I know he's going to be a great father!

"Mark?" I call out.

He hums.

"That was all in the past. Although I admit, I'm... a bit, just a bit bothered about it but I've already come to know who you really are. I'm confident that you are faithful. You always make me feel loved and you never made me feel like you would cheat on me It's already from the past. Bringing it up now won't be healthy for us."

"You're bothered?" He says with worried eyes.

I nod but smile.

"You've only had one serious relationship afterall. And although you've told me that all of the girls and boys in the past are just flings, you still broke hearts."

"I'm sorry." He sighs.

"But... I'm, okay about it now. I mean, I'm confident that you won't cheat on me because you love me so much. You told me that."

"Yes. I really love do you so much and I would never, ever cheat on you Donghyuck. Be confident about that. Just please do tell me if something is bothering you. Tell me if you don't want me close to other people, and if I'm making you feel like I'd cheat on you."

I nod and bite the inside of my cheeks as he shuffles on my side and ruffles my hair.

"How come I've caught your heart? You are such an angel... I don't deserve you." He says and stare into my eyes with his loving gaze.

My cheeks flush red at his words. I was about to speak up and say that I don't serve him as well but he beat me into it.

"Marry me..." He says bluntly with eagerness in his voice.

But I trail off.

Marriage?

"I still haven't... I mean, I want to marry you... but, isn't this too fast?"

I do think it is. We just knew each other for more than eight months. Did he really expect that it wouldn't be a barrier in our relationship? And besides, we haven't settled things yet.

"We already have a child together. Don't you think it's time to settle down officially?"

"I thought you'd wait?" I said, pissed.

He somehow got my the hint in my tone so he coiled.

"I'm sorry."

He clears his throat and walks out. I sigh and hug myself in the couch.
