Right now, we’re on the way to our own house. Even though I feel uneasy about staying there, I have to throw away the feeling because now, I know Mark only loves me and not Jiyeon. Memories will always stay as memories. I should not hate that house just because Mark used to love Jiyeon. Moreover, I believe in Mark’s love. As he tries to take care of my heart, I will do the same.
“Are we going somewhere?” I asked when I saw Mark use the road opposite to our house’s direction.
“No. Why?” Mark smiled as he looked back at the road.
“Then, why are we using this road? I think we’re lost.”
Mark laughed and brushed my hair with his free hand. “No, we’re not, it’s just you who never use this way.”
Mark's answer made me quiet. I never knew there was another road to our house. I just let Mark drive peacefully and safely.
When Mark’s car began to enter the private residential area of bungalows, I could feel something. This time, I’m sure, this is not the way to our house. I looked at Mark who smiled shyly.
“Hyung… Where are you bringing me?” I don’t want to wait until he stops his car.
“Like I told you, we’re going back to our house.” Mark answered.
“Hyung… stop joking around! I’m serious right now!”
“I’m not joking around, babe. I’m serious too!” Finally, Mark stopped his car in front of a house. “From now on, we will live here. This is our house. We will raise our children together here too.”
Mark slid his fingers between mine before leaning over to kiss my lips.
Honestly, I was shocked but happy at the same time.
“How about your penthouse?” Even though I’m happy, I still feel uneasy.
“You don’t like staying there, right?” Mark asked.
“No, I…”
“I know you're scared of heights.” Mark interrupted before I could say anything.
“How did you know?”
“Every time we’re in the lift, I can see you always closing your eyes and praying hard. Then, there was one time when you met me at sky terrace, I can see your face look pale. You didn't even look around, even though the view was breathtaking.” Mark said.
I‘m touched. I’m thankful for Mark's concern and his love for me.
“I keep giving you trouble…”
Mark immediately closed my mouth by kissing.
“I don’t want to hear you say that ever again!” Mark sounded strict right now. “I want you to know, you never caused me trouble even a little. I’m grateful that you are willing to accept me back in your life. Do you know how my heart crumbled when I read your letter? I just have one wish… please don’t leave me ever again.”
Mark kissed my hand.
Without realizing it, my tears came out. Mark wiped my tears gently and kissed each of my eyelids.
“I will not. Only death can do us apart.” I promised to Mark with a sincere heart.
We stepped into our new house after Mark unlocked the door. I smiled when I saw the decoration.
The main theme was mostly blue, my favorite color. My heart began to sing happily. I never knew that, all this time, Mark was also paying attention to me.
