SUDDEN MARRIAGE

Twenty two

My hands were shaking so much as I pace all over the hospital. I was peacefully sleeping, waiting for Mark to tell me that he had finally landed in Korea but then an ambulance called me.

"Mister Mark Lee was involved in a car accident—"

That was everything that I needed to hear for me to run madly towards the hospital. With broken flip flops and knees crumbling, I opened the room number in which I was told about where Mark was staying.

I couldn't take it anymore. My breath was hitching as soon as I saw him in a hospital gown and sitting on the hospital bed.

"L-Love..." I cry out loudly. "Mark f-fucking Lee!"

The people in which I didn't see when I walked in, raised their brows at me and looked at me in disbelief.

But my focus was on Mark. The way his body twitched. The way his eyes widened. The way his bruised arms were raised only to be dropped on his stomach.

"L-Love—" I was cut off.

"I'm sorry... W-Who are you?" He asks in pure curiosity.

My whole world crumbled and it feels like every bit of it was thrown into me. I gasp as my tears flow endlessly.

"W-What?"

Could it be?

"Oh shut it Mark, you just passed out. You didn't even forget us!" Jeno hissed which also made my tears go back and my frown take place in my face.

Mark laughed happily and opened his arms wide. "Come here—"

I didn't even waste time. I immediately plopped on his chest and sobbed madly.

"I missed you." Mark whispers in my hair. "So much..."

"Why are you in the hospital, then? You fucking scared me." I weep in his arms.

"He passed out while driving..." Jeno said, which made me look behind. I saw him shrugging and beside him was a familiar face.

"Jaemin?" I huff.

"Hi, bitch." He rolls his eyes at me and I pout. I don't mind him though. For now, I'll focus on my husband and the reason why he's here and not at home.

"Pass out?" I whisper to myself. "W-Why?"

"Lack of nutrients. Fatigue. Dehydrated." Jeno replied to me. "Turns out he hasn't eaten anything yet since yesterday and the days before that, he only eats breakfast—"

"Shhh." Mark laughed, as if anything about what we're talking now is funny.

"M-Mark!" I hissed. "You did what?"

"Love—"

I remove myself away from him as I project a very mad and disappointed face. "You went there healthy and you'll come home to me like this? Fuck! What if you died in that stupid car accident? What if you didn't just passed out? What if it went overboard?"

Mark had looked at me with his sad eyes. Rubbing both my arms, he opens his mouth to say something but I cut him off by sobbing madly.

"What if you died?"

I can't even imagine how things would be. I can't imagine not having Mark for the rest of my life and I can't imagine living without him. I don't even want to think about it further.

"Love, I didn't. I'm safe now."

"F-Fucker." I hiss and cry out. But then I hugged him back again and inhaled his scent that I very much miss. It's been weeks after all.

"Can you leave us alone, please?" Mark pleads and I'm sure it's for Jeno and Jaemin.

Truth be said, I want to let them out too. Just so I can focus on Mark and him alone.
