You had depression. You had so many troubles and worries about your family and you job. Especially because of your family. They didn't want you to be with Mark. You were stressed and tired. Life seemed too difficult to live for you. You've been waiting for a very long time for this hell to end, but it continued and continued and continued and...

There was only one thing, which was still able to make you happy: your boyfriend. Mark and you had been dating for about year now. You loved each other from the bottom of your hearts. He always managed to make you happy, no matter how sad or tired you were. If Mark wasn't there for you, then you would have already given up. Mark was your sunshine. He was so lively and energetic, that his want to live somehow spread on you too. He never failed to make you feel loved and wanted. You were truly thankful to him for that. Once Mark was home with you, you instantly forgot about all your pain and suffering.

He was your reason to live. Your only and the most important reason.

You were sitting on the couch in the living-room of your and Mark's house. You were drinking hot chocolate and looking out of the window. It was raining. The weather matched to your mood.

Mark was washing dishes in the kitchen. He decided to do it by himself because he saw how crushed you were filling right now and he wanted to do everything he could to make you feel better. He knew the reason of your sadness: the publishing office didn't want to publish your book. Writing meant a lot to you and your dream was to get your books published. Mark remembered what you told him today, when you came home: "Everything will be alright after I publish my book." You thought, that after you become a successful writer, your family would see, that your life only gets better with Mark and they will finally let you be with him.

He hated seeing you like this. He wanted you to be happy. He was ready to do everything, but he didn't know what exactly he had to do. He didn't understand why those people rejected in publishing your book because he has read it and he really liked it. He was looking at you in such state and it teared his heart apart. He was thinking about a way to cheer you up. He thought and thought an suddenly Bam! Something clicked in his head and he finally came up with the idea of how to make you feel better.

He turned off the tap and dried his hands with the towel. Then, he went to the living room, where you were. When you saw him, you got worried because he had a quite serious look on his face.

"Mark? Why are you so serious? What's wrong?" You asked him putting a cup with hot chocolate on the table near the couch you were lying on

Mark came closer to and sat down next you.

"I hate seeing you like this." He said and took your hand in his

"Don't worry about me." You told him "Once my book is published, all my worries will go away."

"That's it." He said "You always say, that all you have to do is wait a bit more and then you'll be happy. I want to show you, that you're wrong."

You gave him a surprised look and asked

"What are you up to?"

Instead of answering your question, Mark stood up from the couch and offered you his hand

"Let's go for a walk." He said

Your eyes widened

"Mark, are you alright? Have you looked out of the window?" You asked him
