Chapter 14, Love & Doubts

Mari:

I woke up, not even remembering how I fell asleep, with a familiar surrounding and then I realized I was back to the suite so I sat up quickly and looked around.

Minhyuk was sitting on the couch near my feet. We're in the living room of Sungjae's place.

"Why are we here?" I asked.

"Because this is where you live." He replied simply.

"Did we teleport?"

He looked at me with a small grin. "Why do you keep asking that?"

"Because I wanted to experience it!"

"You already did."

"Awake."

"Oh, well. You shouldn't."

Why? I asked internally but he didn't reply. I thought he could hear my thoughts.

"Minhyuk-ssi," I called.

"What?"

"When I woke up last night and I had thought of something, you were able to reply to it. Can you read my mind?"

He shook his head. "Sorta."

"Sorta?"

"I can read it when you're in our location, but not here."

"What location?"

He sighed impatiently. "Miracle Workers' location. That place is where we all live and work."

"Oh my gosh! You didn't let me meet the others!"

"They're not as handsome as I am." He said confidently with a smirk that stripped off everything angelic about him.  "Anyway, they did see you while you were sleeping." Then before she could even respond, he said: "Enough of me. Why were you hanging out with some other guy last night instead of sticking by Sungjae's side?"

I remembered Changsub. "He's a friend." I replied. "And as for Sungjae, well, he's... engaged to someone else."

"And?" He asked, raising an eyebrow.

I ran my palms through my face. "He's engaged, Minhyuk! How could I possibly... make him remember me? Even if he did, he's already set for someone else!"

"He's not married yet, Mari."

I turned to him and with a lump in my throat, I asked: "I know, but what if he's in love with her? He didn't come home the other night after escorting her out."

"If he's in love with her, do you think he would have danced with you at the party knowing she was there too?"

"Do you... see everything we do?"

"I know everything that unfolds Sungjae's past memories." He replied, getting up to leave. "And I'm telling you, you're still not halfway to success."

I decided not to come to work after Minhyuk told me several times to skip it and get a rest.

There were no shadows or signs of Sungjae in the suite. I knew he didn't sleep here again and it gave my chest another sinking feeling.

I went to the kitchen to bring some water to my room when the door blasted open on my wayㅡrevealing Sungjae who looked as if he was panting and also going out of his mind.
