It’s been 3 hellish days for Jackson with no reply from Mark. Of course, he had foreseen that all this would happen and yet somehow his brain short circuited that day, and now he lost the person he treasured the most due to pure selfishness. Thinking now, he doesn’t even know as to why Mark would love a useless and hopeless lad like himself. Mark definitely deserved way more than a certain Wang Kayee. His train of thoughts was disrupted with his cellphone ringing; he picked up the call and was more than happy to know it was none other than his true love, Mark.

“Hello?” Mark said in a deep voice which sent chills down Jackson’s spine making his heart pound against his chest.

“Hello, Mark!” Jackson replied back. “Mark, I’m sorry, I didn’t know what I was thinking that time. I guess my brain had a complete shutdown, I swear I didn-“

“Come to the amusement park, will you?” as soon as he heard the blonde saying that, Jackson’s mind were filled with thoughts like a romantic proposal from the older.

Jackson wanted to throw away the popcorn at the elder’s face and scream ‘it’s you what I love not this trash’ and that’s exactly what he didn’t do instead, he just accepted it with shaky hands.

“Let’s go to the Ferris wheel it’s a bit more quiet and private.” Mark stated as gleefully as ever

“If you wanted privacy then why an amusement park in the first place?” Jackson snapped. Surprisingly every damn thing today that Mark did today annoyed him to no bounds. And Mark’s cheerfulness did not help the situation at all; nonetheless it aggravated the younger more.

Mark just replied with intertwining their hands and walking ever so carelessly to the ticket counter. They got their turns and settled down in their seats. The giant wheel slowly started moving. Mark sensed the uncomfortable sil
