the penthouse

38 | it does come true.

yeri knew it was a bad idea, but she was still not giving up. she got out of her car and rushed into the airport. mark was about to leave soon, and yeri knew that, if she did not tell him what she wanted to then, mark was not going to stop.

it was not easy to spot her brother, but what she had planned was about to the big. she was so close to saving her whole family. she could not give up that opportunity, not even if mark refused her offer.

yeri immediately saw mark. he had a pair of sunglasses on, and a beanie that was covering his hair. she ran up to her brother, grabbing him by his arm. mark flinched, seeing that yeri was standing in front of him.

" i told you, i was going to leave. yeri, there is no point in telling me anything. i know ji-yoo is heartbroken, but we both know that i need to do this. " mark tried to explain, but yeri shook her head. " i am in a crisis. those.. ghost writers are my only way out. "

mark had to leave for london, not for oslo. he needed to bring in his ghost writers, and get to producing another album. the man who brought in the writers wanted money, and yeri was well-aware mark did not have anything left.

she was bothered by the fact that mark never asked for help. he was so into the idea that his family did not want him, that they rejected him, to the point he distanced himself from them. it was obvious that his parents did not want him, but yeri did.

sicheng wanted to help him. for years, he told yeri that he was going to pay the man who brought the ghost writers. yeri was the one that refused the idea. she hated that mark, who had a lot of talent, thought that doing all of that was better.

now, in the middle of a desperation she had never felt before, yeri decided that she had no other choice but to change her mind. " i am here for that exact reason, mark. i will pay for you, i will take of everything. " yeri said.

mark froze. there was no way such thing was happening to him right now. he felt like crying, like pulling yeri into a hug and telling her how happy he was to hear her. he finally felt supported by someone near him.

" stay in the country, mark. do it for ji-yoo, do it for this family. our parents may not do much for us, but i will. " yeri held mark's hand. he nodded a few times, before walking away from the place they were previously at.

mark knew that what he was doing was wrong, but, at times in which he needed to work on music, he simply did not have ideas. and, not having them, he could risk losing even more money. with that, he hired ghost writers.

yeri and sicheng had disagreed to it, but they could not do anything about it. they had no say in what he did with his musical career and life, but there was one thing that would make mark give it up. and that was ji-yoo's faith in her uncle.

" i can not find my words, actually. yeri, i have nothing but respect for you. " mark began. the two walked out of the airport, heading to yeri's car. " i will go back to my classes with ji-yoo as fast as i can. do not worry, this time, i will not leave. "

yeri replied by laughing. she finally did it, she finally got mark to stay at home. now, everything was under control. the moment she and sicheng managed to find mark a penthouse, she was going to take care and keep mark as close to her, as possible.

" she was so sad when you left. mark, she looks up to you. she is your biggest fan, and you should never dare to disappoint her. " yeri told mark. a serious expression appeared on her face, and mark could tell it had to do with the ghost writers.

" i will try my best to hide it from her, and give up on doing that one day. " mark replied to yeri's words. satisfied with his answer, yeri told the driver to leave the airport. " i still would like to move into aurora. is there any way sicheng can find me a place ? "
