wait for me.❞ donghyuck started unbuttoning the polo

the older raised a brow ❝what?


placing the polo down on mark's bed, he grabbed the older's hand and dragged him out of his room. ❝i'll go with you.

















🏵




















it wasn't that late yet so donghyuck and mark didn't have to worry about dangerous people outside. actually, donghyuck was but decided to fill himself with thoughts of rainbows and butterflies. mark with him anyways, nothing will happen. right?

they ended up sitting on a bench at a park somehow far from mark's home and mark just watched his dog running around freely.

you know..

nope, i don't know.❞ mark said

donghyuck just clicked his tongue, control. he didn't want to punch the boy who's trying to help him. ❝i'm not over about you telling the principal that my name is haechan.

mark snorted ❝that name is funny.

as much as donghyuck didn't want to deny, it's true. ❝the fuck, you made the name!

the older leaned back, still eyes on his dog ❝it's because i thought of my dog.

donghyuck crossed his arms ❝so that's why there's a chan on my name.

mark nodded his head ❝and then i would call my dog like "hey chan!"❞ mark explained ❝that's how i came up with haechan.

the explanation made donghyuck regret meeting mark ❝that's so lame!

mark pouted ❝no it's not. so whenever i call you, it would be like calling my dog.

the younger pushed mark harshly to the side ❝i'm not a dog!

mark just hissed ❝don't worry, i know. you aren't even cute like a dog.

why does everything that comes out from mark's mouth are all insults? didn't his parents teach him how to treat a boyfriend right? pfft boyfriend. donghyuck? mark's boyfriend?

goodluck haechan.❞ mark bit his lower lip to stop himself from laughing ❝anyways, i told mom everything. to your name down to our love story.

donghyuck was ready to throw up at the word 'love story' ❝but wait.. how about your cousin?



that was one person mark completely forgot the whole day. but whatever, he'll just think about that later ❝i'll just take care of it. i know my mom would tell my dad sooner or later. he would give us a surprise visit one day so just get ready.



the only question inside donghyuck's head was why. why is mark helping him? he didn't do anything good. in fact, he stole his wallet and made him suffer. isn't mark supposed to get mad at him and also make him suffer than to help him?

why?❞ donghyuck whispered

but since the place isn't that filled with people, mark clearly heard it. ❝about finding a place to stay, i lied to mom that you'd be staying for a while because your apartment is still on renovation.

this is too much. donghyuck doesn't think that he deserves all of this. but then again, it would be such a waste if he won't accept this blessing. he just hope mark won't leave donghyuck, just like how he left him.

why? are you planning to escape and live there?❞ mark groaned, it's not like donghyuck wasn't allowed to go back to his so called 'home' but it clearly isn't healthy to live there. there weren't even walls and donghyuck would be in danger anytime. ❝donghyuck i know it's your home but—



thank you.




mark blinked ❝huh?

donghyuck wasn't looking at him but mark could see donghyuck smiling by his side view ❝thank you.. for everything.


his heart was beating fast again, just like when he saw donghyuck for the first time. remind him to get a check up later, this is getting unhealthy.

mark being mark, he didn't want the situation to be serious ❝welcome.. haechan.❞ he laughed

donghyuck groaned, so much for actually being sincere ❝i hate you so much!


but jokes aside, donghyuck was thankful that he met mark. he thanked destiny for making him steal a wallet, specifically mark's wallet.
