Fated To Love You [COMPLETE]

Chapter 24-First Kiss

It was 6.30am when Marks eyes fluttered open. Sunrise spreaded across the sky. The clouds tinted with a candy floss, pinkish glow.  Oranges and reds painted across the sky, announcing the new day, which would soon all merge into blue.

The sound of soft snoring beside Mark suprised him, but when he looked to who it was coming from, through his hooded eyes, a small smile spread across his lips. Lina

He let out a soft sigh as he watched her for a moment or two, sleeping peacefuly.

After some time passed, he decided it was best he left the house before she woke up and found him laying in the same bed as her. Knowing how Lina would feel, once she realised she had asked him to sleep in the same bed as him, they would most likely get into an awkward situation, which he wanted to avoid.

Very carefully, Mark lifted the duvet off himself and first swinging his legs off the side of the bed, he then slowly turned and got up.  He made sure to cover Lina back with the duvet, before he made his way into her ensuite to use the toilet and wash his face to waken himself up.

Once Mark was done, he stepped out the bathroom and back into Lina's room and looked to her still sleeping in bed. Remembering her drunk moments last night, made him chuckle silently to himself. He liked seeing her happy and playful, rather then her crying and sad.

Just then, he noticed his fists were clenched tightly and he slowly released his fingers as he sighed. "Aishh.. This girl could get me doing all sorts of things." He said as he looked away from Lina.

Knowing that she'd probably wake up slightly hungover since it was her first time drinking, Mark made his way out to the kitchen to try and make soup for her, for when she woke up.

"Sillyehabnida. Neo nugu ni?" (Excuse Me. Who are you?) An elderly women's voice came, causing Mark to freeze in the middle of roaming through the draws in the kitchen to gather ingredients together.

Mark turned to the elder lady and bowed his head in apology as he stuttered "Annyeonghaseyo. M-Mianhae...erhh.. Naneun Angelina..ch..chingu-ida. Mark." (Hello. I'm sorry...erhh..I'm Angelina's..f..friend. Mark.)

"Ahh.." Halmeoni's eyes wondered over to the ingredients Mark had gathered on the work top, then looked back at Mark.

Mark followed her gaze and then looked to Halmeoni, his face heating up in embarrassment as he dropped his gaze down. "I just... naneun linaleul wihae achim sigsaleulhago sipda. Mianhae. Naneun geugeoseul-dollyeo noh-eul geos-igo dangsin jibeul amu munjega saeng-gyeoseo mianhada.." (I just wanted to make breakfast for Lina. I'm sorry. I will put it back and leave your house, im sorry for causing any trouble.)

"Anyah!" (No!) Halmeoni suddenly shot.

Mark turned to look at Halmeoni in shock. Did I say something wrong?
He thought worridly.

"Nae sonnyeoleul joh-ahani?" (Do you like my granddaughter?) Halmeoni spoke again in a serious tone.

"Wau. Halmeoni, neo museun tteus-iya?" (Wow. What do you mean grandma?) Mark blurted out in shock at the straight forward question Halmeoni just shot at him.

"Pabo gat-i gulji mala."(stop playing dumb) Halmeoni slapped Mark on the shoulder lightly. "Nae sonnyeoleul joh-ahani?"(Do you like my granddaughter?) She asked again.

Mark took a deep breath in as he tried to think of what he could say. If he told her the truth and said yes or lied and said no, what would be her reaction.

"Erhh.. Yeh Halmeoni naneun geunyeoleul manh-i joh-ahanda, hajiman geunyeoneun daleun salam-eul joh-ahae." (Yes Grandma I like her a lot, but she likes someone else)
