My Love

Chapter 8

I tossed and turn in my bed having a hard time to catch a sleep. When I entered my room after the argument with Mark, I quickly took a shower to calm myself down.

To be honest, I knew that I've been insensitive by not informing him that I am going home late. I just want to let him have a taste of what I am feeling every time he ignores me, and that is totally selfish.

I know I shouldn't have done that but I didn't expect him to react that way. He practically screamed at me.

And my phone. Aish my freaking phone is on silent mode and is inside my bag so I wasn't able to notice that he is calling, when our class finished I forgot to change the volume to normal.

Maybe Jackson's right, I am not acting like myself.

I need to snap out of it and return to my normal self.

Getting up I decided to head down to the kitchen to drink water, maybe it would help me to relax and feel sleepy.

Not opening the lights on the kitchen since I am familiar with the place I approached the refrigerator until I bumped into someone.

My heart nearly went out of my chest from horror. Gladly he spoke before I can open my mouth to scream cause I thought there's a burglar.

"Jin is that you?" I can hear footsteps before I was blinded by the light.

Our eyes met and we stared at each other. He also couldn't sleep huh.

See? Every time I am around him I always don't know what to do.

"Mark" I spoke at the same time he cleared his throat

"go on first" I told him

I saw him scratched the back of his neck, a habit he does when he is nervous or shy.

"I-uhm I'm sorry about earlier" he started looking at me apologetically

"me too." I blurted unconsciously

"I know I overreacted, I shouldn't have screamed at you." walking his way to stand in front of me.

Leaning on the bar to support my body, how can he say it with pure sincerity. It made my whole body weak. I am automatically ready to forgive him.

"I understand Mark, we shared some mistakes there. Please accept my apology too."

"So... We're good now?" tilting his head sideways cutely he asked

"yes." I confirmed standing straight grinning at him.

"don't do that again ok?"

"I won't, I promise" with that all the hurt I felt these past few days vanished.

He ruffled my hair laughing.

Oh I need to drink water. Getting a glass I took some water and drank it in one go.

Turning to face Mark I approached him and linked my arm on his dragging him out of the kitchen.

"let's go to sleep" I chirped.

I almost fell on the floor when he suddenly stopped from walking.

Steadying myself, I turned to look at him curious on why he stopped.

"tell me what happened" he said as soon as he met my eyes.

"what do you mean what happened?" I asked confused.

What's with people ordering me to tell them everything today?

"tell me what happened in the mall and why are you with Jackson who should've been at home already." he explained.
