_____
mark wouldn't say he was burdened by this, but he's getting frustrated.
it was only yesterday when he and donghyuck just got back from france.
it went absolutely horrible.
donghyuck wasn't talking to him, never close enough to him and always disappearing from his side. mark had made it clear that he wanted donghyuck to stay with him if he wanna go somewhere and tell him about it, but the younger wasn't having any of it.
donghyuck was treating mark like he doesn't exist at all.
and that has yet to be the worst.
mark was worried of donghyuck, he don't want anything to happen again - not that he wish for it of course. but donghyuck's ignorance towards him was something that might bite him back at the end and that's what mark didn't want. mark knew donghyuck was a night person, always wandering everywhere and everytime, not caring about what he might got himself into.
even when they aboard the plane, donghyuck was still acting like mark wasn't there, his presence wasn't the one sitting next to him.
it's not that mark didn't understand, he did, he tried to.
he wasn't the one that was caught in the action, the one that got assaulted and the one that was feeling like his life has been taken away. mark wouldn't know how it felt to be in a dark where everything was falling apart - his life, his achievements, his self-respect, his dignity - everything. mark didn't know the pain etched in donghyuck's heart, the hurtful scars that would remain forever on his body, the loathe of moments when his mind were reminded of that tragedy.
mark wouldn't be able to understand any of it.
but he tried, he tried so hard to help donghyuck.
he made sure to keep his distance so donghyuck wouldn't feel uncomfortable, he made sure to not touch donghyuck randomly, he made sure to not let his feelings in the way. mark tried to consider donghyuck's situation and he did anything to make donghyuck felt like he wasn't a burden to mark.
mark loves donghyuck and it's only right for him to help him when he's having it hard. no matter how frustrating it is.
but how can you help someone who didn't want to be help?
"i'm going to my house."
donghyuck declared, his eyes sealed to the food in front with his fork stabbing the food roughly. he was sat on a stool beside the counter table, mark settling back all the ingredients inside. mark have taken the role of a chef for the night. to say it went well wouldn't be right, but he did what he can. mark followed all the instructions from the recipe properly and try to not at least burn anything, the food was for donghyuck and he need to do his best for him.
drying his hands on the clean towel and untying the soft blue apron on his body before placing it back to its place, mark went to face donghyuck. "i can send you there." he said, giving a smile to donghyuck who just chewed the food blankly. the food wasn't that good but mark did well for someone who didn't cook and rarely use his kitchen so it's considered as a success, maybe.
