Fated To Love You [COMPLETE]

Chapter 39- I Don't Want To Lose Them

After collecting Bambam from the salon, Mark looked to Lina. "So what do you guys want to do now?"

Lina looked over at SooAh who was scrolling through her phone.

It's probably not a good idea to go anywhere. Not when things are quiet awkward between SooAh and I. I need to have a proper chat with her.

"Oh Hyung.  Let's go to the karaoke and have chicken and soju" Bambam turned in his seat, looking back at the others excitedly.

Lina looked to Bambam and nodded her head no in an apologetic way.
"I think it's best if we go home.".

She then looked to Mark, giving a small smile.

Mark nodded, understanding what she meant.

"But. I haven't seen you in what feels like such a long time and tomorrow myself and Mark have a schedule." Bambam whined.

Mark looked to Bambam. "Bammy, now is not the time."

"Mianhae. Next time. I promise?" Lina told Bambam, as Mark spoke to the driver in korean, giving Lina's Halmeoni's address.

SooAh looked up from her phone.  "Why not? Why don't you go without me. I don't really care what you guys do. Just drop me home and you can go with them Lina."

Lina stayed quiet for a moment but then she just decided to speak and not care anymore.  "Look. I'm not going without you. We were going to go out together, but since.."

"What? Now you're putting the blame on me for ruining your lots plans?" SooAh interupted Lina.

"What? Im not saying you ruined the plans. Stop twisting words SooAh. I don't want to talk right now, because we're both in a bad mood and might say something we regret. BUT at some point today, the two of us need to talk." Lina told.

SooAh stayed quiet and went back to looking at her phone.

Mark and Bambam watched in suprise. Especially Bambam who hadn't seen Lina fustrated and almost shouting like that before.

Once they reached Lina's Halmeoni's house, SooAh imidiately unbuckled her seat belt and jumped out the car, whilst Lina was still in the process of unbuckling hers.

Lina then looked over to her right to say goodbye to Mark, but he had also jumped out the car. "Ey, where did he.." Lina turned to look out the window to the door SooAh had gone out from, and saw Mark jogging after SooAh.

She then saw Mark grab SooAh by her arm and turn her around to then SooAh shaking his hand off of her and looking at him with hurt in her eyes.

Lina then saw Mark speaking to SooAh and then noticed SooAh's facial expressions soften.

Wait what? Did she just smile? I wonder what they are talking about.
Lina thought.

Lina then said her goodbyes to Bambam, apologising once more to him for not being able to hang out and then exited the car.

"Okay. See you later then." SooAh was smiling at Mark.

Mark nodded and turned around to walk back towards the car when he saw Lina walking towards him with a puzzled look on her face.

"What was all that about?" Lina asked.

"Don't worry about it." Mark smiled and wrapped his arms around Lina as he hugged her goodbye.

"Mark. Don't. SooAh." Lina worried, as she pushed him away gently.

Mark pulled away. "I'm just saying goodbye." He told with a nutral tone. "See ya" he smiled and hopped into the car.

Lina watched as the car drove off. Still confused about what had just happened.

She turned around to head back in and SooAh skipped over, smiling and linked her arm with Lina. "Come on slow coach"

"Ermm excuse me? Who are you and what did you do with SooAh?" Lina asked, pulling her arm away from SooAh.

"Yah. Okay I'm sorry I over reacted slightly." SooAh told, grabbing Lina's arm back again.

"You slightly over reacted? Hmm. Sure." Now it was Lina's time to sulk.

"Okay. Okay. I over reacted a lot. But.. I couldn't help it. You know how long I've had this huge crush on Mark Oppa. I really thought you two..." SooAh began to say, looking down apologetically as the two stopped walking.

"SooAh you should know me better!" Lina said in shock. "I'd never do that to you. You're my best friend and no guy will ever come between us. I don't feel like that about him. Mark is just a really good friend to me and has been there for me when things were kinda tough." Lina told.

"I'm so sorry Lina. You're right. Please forgive me. I'm such a horrible friend." SooAh frowned.

Lina sighed and hugged her friend. "You aren't a horrible friend. You're just human. You made a mistake and I forgive you, because isn't that what friends do?" Lina pulled away and looked to SooAh.

SooAh nodded. "Thank you Lina."

"So. What did Mark say to you then, that your mood suddenly changed?" Lina asked, as both girls walking through the garden, heading to the front door of the house.

"Well.. He told me he didn't like to see the two of us fight and to make up with you, but since I was mad I thought I had done nothing wrong and I had nothing to apologise for. Then Mark said he'd like to meet up with me. Just me, the day after tomorrow and he wants to talk." SooAh blushed.

Lina realised what this meant. She didn't think Mark's 'talk' with SooAh would happen so soon. She decided not to tell SooAh anything, since Mark said he would talk to SooAh himself.

Lina didn't want to get inbetween. Today was enough evidence to show if anything did happen between Mark and herself, it would cost her to lose her best friend and Lina didnt want to lose her, nor did she want to lose Mark. He was like her best friend too. However she still felt guilty since she knew Mark was going to break SooAh's heart and she couldn't  warn her friend about it.

"Oh." was all Lina said as the two entered the house.
