SUDDEN MARRIAGE

Twenty one

Two long days and Mark is busier than ever. For the day when he landed in Canada, he called me three times. The next day, he just called me once. And today, he hasn't called me yet. I've been waiting ever since I ate breakfast for his call but it isn't there yet. I'm starting to think that he died there somewhere.

I mean, if he didn't, what are his reasons for not calling me today?

I jumped off my bed and kicked my pillow in frustration. I throw the stupid phone that Mark bought me before he went to Canada and groaned into the air.

What the fuck happened in there that made Mark so busy to not even call me? Just how worst is that construction site that they stole Mark away from me?

I started crying and throwing tantrums alone. I can't believe that Mark didn't even call me or even tried to find some time to call me, if he's that busy.

Did he forget that his husband is here in Korea? Did he forget that I'm alone—even if I'm not really because he left me a few bodyguards around the house. Did he just neglect me?

God... I miss him so much.

"Sir?"

"Yes?" I sob. "What is it?"

"I think someone's calling you." The bodyguard outside the room called me. "From the telephone."

"Telephone?" I huffed and stood up. "Who could it be?"

I walked and stopped when I reached the telephone which was just out my door beside the bodyguard. I answered it and wiped my tears away.

"H-Hello?"

"Oh my god, finally!" A voice, then, exclaims. "Lee Donghyuck?"

"W-Who are you?" I cry out. "Do you know Mark?"

Dang it! I miss him so much that I even asked a stranger if he knows Mark.

"Yes, yes, yes. I do!" He shouts happily. "You're his husband, right?"

"Y-Yes."

"I'm Huang Renjun. His helper in here—"

"What kind of helper?" I furrow my eyebrows. My heart burns in madness, at the same time.

"I clean his hotel room. Wash his clothes. And bring food for him."

"What?" I hissed.

I should be the one who'd do that! I'm his fucking husband!

"Mr. Lee asked me to call you and to tell you that he's out for today. He's in the construction site and he forgot to charge his phone, that's why he can't call you."

"And why can't he tell me that himself?" I growled.

He clears his throat and taps the phone which I heard from the other side. "As I have told you, sir... He's in the construction site. He told me that he'll call you the moment he comes back."

What else am I supposed to do then? To fucking wait for him again? I've been waiting for almost half this damn day!

I cut the call off madly and locked myself back in the room. I plopped onto bed and hid myself behind the thick covers as I cry to myself.

Things got even harder for me now that I knew Mark has someone in Canada. He's with that Huang Renjun. He cooks for my husband, he cleans the room of my husband and keeps him in company.

I know I shouldn't think this way but I can't help it! I've been so traumatised with what happened to Karina and Mark before, that's why I'm starting to think like this.
