THAT SECRETARY

twenty four

everyday was quite hectic for me now that i'm anticipating for positive results for this project. i'm so busy but i managed to spend lots and lots of time for my family always, i don't want to make them feel like the company is more important than them, because it's not.

“love, what's my schedule for today?”

donghyuck grabbed the chart from beside him and threw it to me.

“a lunch meeting with… ko eunji, jung jaehyun and lee taeyong—”

“love, what's wrong?” i chuckle and pulled him close. i straightened his furrowed eyebrows and kissed his pouting lips. “i know something's wrong by the way you're acting towards me right now. tell me, are you jealous?”

he huffs and groan. “why is she always in your meeting, anyway? you're meeting each other almost everyday! not to mention every single time, she talks about your past! fuck you!”

“hey, hey, hey!” i dived into his cursing mouth and bite his bottom lips. “stop cursing.”

“what did i told you about her?” i softly said, and gently pull his waist, his fucking curvy waist.

“that she's… no one. she's only an ex. she's… i'm sorry…” he bites his quivering lips. “i'm sorry love, i didn't mean to get jealous over her. i'm just bothered. i know she's just a nobody now. i know she's just your ex.”

“i understand…”

because he's been through a manipulative partner, he's been cheated on for so many times and even went through abusive relationship, i understand why he's like this.

“but what did i told you about me?” i rested my hands on my table after picking him up and putting him on top of it.

he shyly cowers and fiddled with his fingers and this sight of him is too adorable.

“mark lee is lee donghyuck's. mark lee is mine and mine alone. you're mine.”

i chuckle as i find him too cute in this. imagine seeing your boyfriend get so shy while saying that you're his and his alone, that's making my fucking stomach flip!

“i love you so much and i will never, ever cheat on you. i didn't dedicated a few months of my life courting you if i'm just going to cheat on you donghyuck. i didn't spend a few months being your boyfriend if i'm just going to hurt you. so, don't ever ever entertain the idea that i'm going to do that. i love you so much that i can't even imagine life if i lose you. i wouldn't waste this chance that you gave me, love.”

“i trust you, mark. i know that you're not like him. i love you so much and i'm confident that you will never do things like what he did. i love you.”

i peck his lips multiple times, slowly and soothingly while caressing his back.

even if he'd get like this, even if he'd doubt me, even if he'd throw tantrums about it and regarding this—i'd understand him. he already had a hard time letting me know about the things he's been through so this is the least i can do.

“we have to go now right?” i cackle and thread my fingers through his soft and shiny hair. “you'll sit next to me.”

“my seat is always next to yours!” he snorts before pulling me and making our way inside the conference room.

i stood still while watching him place the papers in front of the chairs and a few beverages. despite him being my boyfriend, he actually still does his job professionally, almost as if he doesn't know me. that's why sometimes i'd grab his attention by kissing him, hugging him or even intertwining our hands.
