Mark - " No wait!"

Y/n - " Then don't waste my time and speak."

Mark - " Y/n...I-I am sorry."

Y/n's mind - " Woww!! Does he really have the audacity to stop me for his freaking sorry."

I sighed

Y/n - " Is that all...can I leave now?"

Mark - " Y/n.....please listen once completely."

I clenched my jaw because I was getting irritated.

Mark - " I am really sorry for what I did to you....I know that was wrong,very wrong so I just wanted to give a closure."

Y/n - " Well...I don't need that anymore."

I said sassily but internally I also wanted to have a proper closure.

Mark - " I know...but it would always be a burden and guilt in me if I would not do that."

He looked really sad....he was not looking like the mark who broke up with me and the mark at the party he really looked liked the one who loved me.

I wonder what happened suddenly.

I don't know why all this situation and his sorrowful voice was making me sad too.

I was just trying not to shed tears.

I scoffed

Y/n - " you just played with my feelings then why are you suddenly being burdened and guilty."

I said in a mocking tone

He sighed

Mark - " Y/n...I know I miserably broke your heart,

but trust me when I was with you I genuinely loved you,

I loved you the same way you did,

I had also planned a future with you."

He said convincingly

I couldn't control anymore.... all the nostalgia along with the pain I suffered because of him came back and made me shed those sinful tears.

Y/n's mind - " What has happened to me? Since when did I became such a cry baby?"

Mark - " No, y/n please don't cry."

He said with a broken voice which conveyed that he is also at the verge of tears.

Y/n - " Why are you suddenly telling me all this?"

I said wiping my tears.

Mark - " I want to explain everything that happened."

I nodded because I wanted to know too.

Mark - " Y/n as I said before I loved you....but after I met Sowon I felt attracted to her,

I knew it was wrong because I had a girlfriend

but

I couldn't stop my feelings I tried but I couldn't and

then

I discovered I have fallen out of love with you and

have fallen for her,

trust me y/n...I never wanted to hurt you...and when I found that mine and Sowon's feelings were mutual I couldn't control myself."

I was listening to him attentively

and

honestly I don't blame him for falling out of love but

I blame him for not telling me, cheating on me and treating me badly after that.

He sighed.

Mark - " We wanted to tell you but before that, you found out yourself."

Y/n - " And then you acted like a jerk."

I said with an angry tone.

Mark - " yup! I did... because I thought that would be right....I wanted you to move on...so I acted that way so that you could hate me and it would help you to move on."

I furrowed my eyebrows and said

Y/n - " What?"

That was some revealation for me.

Mark - " It was all acting to make you hate me."

I bite my lower lip trying to process everything.

Y/n - " Then why are you telling me all this now?"

Mark - " Y/n I still love you."

My eyes widened.

Mark - " Not the way like before but I still do...you were a special person in my life...you were my first love, you were my way to sowon and i care for you...and seeing you here at the mall with your husband I figured out that you have finally moved on..so I decided to get this burden off my heart...the burden of not explaining everything and hurting you."

I smiled at him because I understood what he is conveying and I am glad this conversation didn't took any negative turn.

Honestly I also don't wanted to hold grudges and let go of every past thing and this conversation was what I needed for that

Mark - " Btw congratulations!"

Y/n - " Huh?"

Mark - " You are pregnant right?"

Y/n - " What? No!"

I said with a shocked face

Mark - " But u came out from the kids store."

I laughed a little

Y/n - " Ah! It's not me... actually Dahyun gave birth to a baby girl..so we went shopping for her."

Mark - " Oh..well, congratulations to her......soooo....are we good no...we can be friends right?"

Y/n - " umm I am not sure about friends but we are definitely good now, I forgive you and don't have any grudge against you anymore."

He nodded.

Mark - " I understand...........can I get a hug atleast."

Y/n - " sure."

We hugged each other.

Mark - " all the best to you for your future."

Y/n - " same to you.....ok..I'll leave, tae must be waiting...bye."

Mark - " Bye!"

I went away from him happily....I realized one thing today whether you love that person anymore or not but you still seek closure....I never knew before today that I needed it.....I felt even more lighter than the day I realized that I have moved on.

I smilingly went towards our car and saw tae waiting for me in the car with a grumpy face.

Y/n's mind - Ah! He must be tired of waiting and also thinking why I talked to him.....ok I'll answer him when he'll question."

After sometime of waiting finally y/n came back.

I don't know why I was thinking whether she would come back or not...but seeing her back made me relieved a little but still the picture of her smiling and hugging him was in my mind.

She opened the passenger seat door and entered in.

Y/n - " Sorry for making you wait."

She said wearing her seatbelt.

Tae - " Hmmm."

I started the car leaving the parking area.

Tae's mind - " would she not tell me what they talked about crying, then smiling and hugging.......Ughh! Why is it hurting me soo much.....she has moved on from him right?.......yah taehyung don't think negative things."

I took a glance at her and she was already staring at me with a confused look...I immediately looked away.

It was all silent when she spoke.

Y/n - " Tae, won't you ask what Mark talked with me?"

Tae - " Why would I ask, it's your personal life who am I to interfere."

I said sarcastically.

Tae's mind - " shit!...was that harsh?...no, she deserves this for hurting me and hugging and smiling with that cheater ex of hers."

She suddenly went quiet and looked out of the window.

Tae's mind - " Didn't she got the sarcasm...is she showing me attitude....ok, then I'll also not talk to her...........would I be able to do that?.....yeah! Of course I can."

We reached home and I get out of the car slamming the door shut, showing that I am angry.

She stared at me quitely and then followed me towards the building.

As we reached in the house,she asked me

Y/n - " Tae, what should I cook for dinner?"

Tae's mind - " She never asked me that before."

Tae - " I don't have appetite, cook whatever you want."

I said coldly without looking at her.

Y/n - " But in the mall you said you are hungry."

I didn't replied to her and went upstairs to the room.

Tae - " Wow...she didn't even followed me or stopped me."

I removed my jacket and harshly threw it on the floor in anger.

Tae - " Does she not even care about me...............will this girl ever love me?"

I went towards my bed thinking about y/n.

Tae's mind - " I think she still loves that bastard.....and no matter how much I try she will not love me."

I felt my eyes welling up and then my tears flowing.

It's been around 40 minutes and I am sitting in the same position crying thinking about my one sided love.

Just then I heard y/n

Y/n - " Tae!"

Her voice was shocked and confused.

I didn't looked at her and quickly wiped my tears.

She came towards me and made me face her.

Y/n - " You are crying?....What happened?"

I removed her hand which was cupping my face and said.

Tae - " Don't act as if you care."

I can see her eyes glistening.

Y/n - " Is it about Mark?"

I clenched my jaw listening to his name.

Y/n - " Tae....I'll explain everything to you."

Tae - " No need...I saw you smiling and hugging him...there is nothing to explain....I know you still love him."

Y/n - " You were still there?..didn't I told you to wait in the car?"

Tae - " Is that even important."

I said looking away.

She again made me face her.

Y/n - " It is....look at you now, this is the reason I told you wait in the car."

Then she explained me everything what they talked about.

I honestly felt guilty for making assumptions.

Y/n - " And what was that 'don't act like you care'

She said mimicking my deep voice.

Y/n - "I do care for you tae...I really do....and yes what you said in the car...'it's your personal life, who am I '?"

I lowered my eyes .

Y/n - " Look at me.......you are my husband the person who loves me......I have told you so many times tae, you have rights over me....you can act like a normal husband around me....

in the car I was expecting you to interrogate me about what happened with full authority like a husband......

I don't wanted to hide anything from you but I wanted you to ask me about it."

Tae - " I am sorry."

Y/n - " No, it's fine....but don't hold yourself back.....and one more thing I am telling this for the last time I. don't. love. Mark."

I nodded and hugged her.

Y/n - " You are a very special and important person for me."

She leaned forward and kissed me making my heart beat accelerate...I can never get used to her kisses Everytime it feels like the first.

I kissed her back.

The kiss really calmed me down.

This girl really knows how to tame me.

Then she pulled out and said.

Y/n - " Come downstairs now...I have made japchae, your favorite.....I knew you were hungry but acting moody"

She said while squinting her eyes.

Tae's mind - " She is just so cute."

I laughed a little and followed her downstairs.
