Chapter Four

Mark's POV

Manger Hyung was going to kill me. I wasn't supposed to be gone for that long. I told him that I was only going to the hospital to return A Ra's bag and check on her condition. I promised him that I would come back to the company straight after I do that. I broke my promise unintentionally. I didn't know that I would end up staying at the hospital, talking to A Ra for an hour.

I don't regret breaking the promise though. Having the one hour conversation with A Ra was nice and refreshing. It's been a while since I had a conversation in proper English with another person. Even when I'm with Jackson, we would tend to speak in Mandarin, English and Korean at the same time. It was also nice to be treated as just Mark Tuan and not as Mark of GOT7. I don't regret becoming an idol but sometimes it's hard to be treated as just Mark Tuan and not as Mark of GOT7. I'm glad that A Ra didn't know who Mark of GOT7 is. She only knew me as Mark Tuan who travelled from the States to Korea to fulfil his dreams of becoming an idol. She talked to me like I'm a normal person and not like I'm a famous person. It was a bonus that our conversation was in complete English.

"Mark hyung, you're so late. We have lots to prepare for the comeback stage next week," the moment I stepped into the practise room, JB scolded me for being late.

The guys were already in their practise clothes while I still had my coat on. By the tired looks on their face, they have started to practice without me. Our upcoming comeback, 'Never Ever', filled up the whole practice room as I prepare myself for the dance practice. I usually wear my practice clothes under all the thick layers of clothing to make my life easier. I just had to quickly remove all the thick layers and I can join the rest of the guys for dance practice. My practice clothes usually just include a pair of comfortable jeans, a t shirt and I would wear a hoodie if I feel cold.

JB have been making us work our butts off. We've spent the last few hours perfecting our dance for the comeback. Quoting JB's words, 'we have to make each move sharper and each transition smoother'. He only gave us a short break after we perfected every move and every transition.

"Hyung, weren't you wearing a cap and mask when you left the house this morning?" Jinyoung asked me as he passed me a water bottle.

By instinct, I reached for where my cap wold have been if it was there. Even though Jinyoung said that I didn't have my cap with me, I still looked around the practice room to find my cap. I was sure that I had my cap and mask with me when I left the dorm this morning. I wanted to keep my identity a secret while I was at the hospital. I'm certain that I had my mask and cap when I was in the hospital. I only took them off when I was talking to A Ra in the hospital.

"Aish... I left them at the hospital," I muttered to myself when I realised that I left my cap and mask in A Ra's hospital room.

"Hospital? Hyung you went to the hospital today?" Yugyeom caught my mutter and asked me about my visit to the hospital.

"Yup, I went to return A Ra's bag and check on her," I replied the maknae's question. "I guess I have to go back to the hospital later to take my stuff from A Ra's room," I continued.

"Hyung, you're visiting A Ra later? Can I come along?" Jackson who was listening to Yugyeom and I asked me.

Before I could reply to Jackson's question, JB came back into the practice room and told us to continue practicing until we reach perfection.

Empty. Her room was empty. There were no traces of her at all in the room. The bed was neatly made, as if no one has used it. The glass and bottle of water that was there on the bed side table this morning was no longer there. I checked the storage space in the bed side table to look for my jacket that I left behind for A Ra to use and it was no longer there.

"Excuse me miss, have you seen a patient named Kim A Ra?" I asked the nurse who was at the front desk.

She looked up from her computer and answered me, "Miss Kim was discharged earlier today." She looked around her desk to search for a piece of paper before passing it to me. "She asked me to pass this to you."

I took the paper and thanked the nurse before leaving the hospital. Once I leave the hospital I hailed the first taxi that I saw and asked the taxi driver to head back to the dorm.

Hi Mark, I got discharged. I hope you didn't get in too much trouble with your manager. Just wanted you to know that you left your mask, cap and jacket with me. Maybe when we meet again I can return you stuff. By the way, thank you again for helping me, I owe you one. If you need any help I'll try and help you to the best of my ability. See you around – Kim A Ra

"What are you reading hyung? Love letter?" Youngjae asked me when he saw me walking into the dorm while reading the note that A Ra left behind for me to read.

I ignored whatever was said and just went straight to my room. I couldn't think straight. My mind was only on the note that A Ra wrote. I've only known A Ra for a few hours but she's the only girl who has left me feeling like this. She left me wanting more. She leaves me with many questions left unanswered.

Kim A Ra is also the only person that leaves a note without her contacts when she expects to see me around. That last thought made me chuckled a little. If any of the guys were to enter the room right now, they would think that I'm crazy, laughing to myself. I can't say much though, I would also call me crazy if I found myself laughing at nothing.

Hi guys :)

I'm sorry that this chapter is too short but I'm kind of struggling to transfer what I have in my mind into words. Even though this chapter is a little short, I hope that you all enjoyed this chapter.

p.s. GOT7 HAD THEIR COMEBACK AND IT'S SO GOOD. GO AND SUPPORT THEIR COMEBACK ITS CALLED NEVER EVER AND ALL SEVEN OF THEM LOOKED SO GOOD.

p.p.s. Jinyoung oppa looks so cute on Inkigayo. When they were doing the 'comeback spoiler' segment he looked damn cute and at the same time proud of his group.

p.p.p.s. I don't know why but I ship GOT7 and Blackpink so much. Especially Bambam x Lisa and Jinyoung x Jisoo
