Don't Let Go || m.t

Chapter 13

Mark POV

I came out of my room stretching, see no one in the house. I guess everyone left to the entertainment. I shrugged and got ready to go.

I entered into the studio, saw that everyone was gloomy. It was dead silent in the room. I wonder what happened. "Shall we start practicing for our next performance, guys?" I tried to break the silence. Everyone ignored. Okay then.

"Mark," Jinyoung walked towards me. "You probably don't care right now but, Irene is missing. She disappeared." He had a worry look.

"So? That's what happens when mermaids turn into bubbles, right? They're just gone."

Our manager came and ordered us to get in the van to go run our last episode of our drama. It's been a while but we finished it pretty quick. As we're in the van, heading our way to KBS, no one dared to talk in the van. As it was before, dead quiet. "Why are you guys so quiet? Usually all of you would joke around a scream." Our manager said.

Finishing our last episode, we celebrated. It was a fun and happy one, the guys pretended to be happy, I guess. I shrugged and looked for Soonhae. She was nowhere around to celebrate with us. I left the room and went to look for her. I passed by a room and heard some soft moaning. What the fuck was that? It was in a conference room. I took a peek inside and saw Soonhae and the director. I looked away, didn't believe what I just saw. What the fuck. I thought she said she likes me? I walked away from the room and went back into the filming room. "Alright, shall we go back?" Our manager said.

I now regretted everything I have said.

Now when I think of it, Soonhae never said she loved me. Irene did...

We headed back to our dorms to rest. It was still quiet. My phone suddenly ranged and it was a call from Songyah. "I need to talk to you." And ended the call.

"Where are you going?" Jinyoung asked.

"To get some air."

When I got to Songyah's house, she was sitting outside waiting and handed me a small folded piece of paper. "I thought you said we're gonna talk about something?"

"This was handed to you." She went back inside her house and I was left outside. I opened the piece of paper and it was written for me, from Irene.

You probably know by now that I'm gone but I know you wouldn't care. But, I just want to let you know that I did loved you. There's a place I want you to go, and they want to meet you. But they probably hate you by now, cause of what you did.

Irene

There's a address below on the paper. I used my phone as a gps and searched for the place.

But, who's they?

As I got there, it was a lake I never been before. Why does she want me to come here? For the next 15 minutes, there was no one around. This is wasting my time. I turned, then felt a rock hit my back. "Ow, mother fuck—" I turned back around and saw a bunch of kids in the water. Damn kids. "Hey, it's already getting late. Y'all kids should go home by now." No wait, they look different.

"It's your fault!" A little girl threw rocks at me.

"This is for Irene noona!" A little boy threw shells at me.

"You don't deserve anyone!" All of them threw more rocks and shells.

"Look, I'm sorry!" They didn't listen.

"I wish you get bad luck!" Another little girl said.

I decided to threw back rocks at them, it made me pissed. It hit a little girl in the face. Every one of them got even more mad, they threw more rocks and sea ornaments. I threw back more at them until they were out. They swam away except for one.

"Scram brat!"

"I hope bad things come for you." And she left.
