Chapter 23 ~

The Truth

Author's POV :

"THEY WHAT ??!!" all of EXO shouted.Sojin shushed them to keep their voice low so that their parents won't hear them."They're fighting about Miyoung ?" Chen said,bewildered.Then he shook his head."No way.I can't believe this.I've known Mark for a long time.He never got into a fight before." he said.

Sojin scoffed."Well, he is now.Also,he's the one who started it.Luhan is innocent and you guys knew it right ?" They nodded and Suho got up from his seat."I wanna go and take a look." 

Then,Kris stopped him."Maybe,it's a good thing if we don't interrupt them." he said while holding onto Suho's shoulder.Suho sighed and sat again.

Just then,Mark entered the living room with a frown."YAH ! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE ?" Chen shouted.Mark was shocked and he is loss of words.Did they knew about it ?

"What did you do to Luhan ?" Kris growled.Mark gulped.I guess they knew.he thought.

"Did you hurt him ?!" Lay who have been quiet all the time finally spoke.Mark gulped.Chen stood up and went to him.He held his collar."Are you crazy ?! Luhan is my new family ! You can't hurt him !"he said angrily.All of the members were upset too and they scolded him.Mark lowered his head.Sojin just scoffed.

"I'm sorry..." he finally spoke.

"What ? Sorry ? Why do you have to apologize to us ? You should say that to Luhan and NOT US !! " Kai shouted and pushed Mark.He got on top of him and was about to punch him when suddenly Chanyeol came in and stopped them."STOP !" he looked into Kai's eyes."Just stop this.Calm down,Jongin-ah." he said firmly.Kai knew when Chanyeol used his real name,it means that Chanyeol is deadly serious.Kai panted and got up.He gritted his teeth while Mark quickly got up.

"I- I'm really sorry.I shouldn't have done that to him.I know it.It's just that I care so much about Miyoung that I had blame Luhan for all of it.I'm really sorry." Mark pleaded.All of them sighed in frustration.Baekhyun noticed something odd.He feels like Mark always care for Miyoung.Does he like her ? he thought.

"Mark...."Baekhyun called Mark."Do you like her ?" he asked all of sudden.Sojin frowned and looked at Mark."So ?" she added.Mark looked at them while widening his eyes and hung himself low.He nodded hesitantly."I- I guess so.." he whispered.

EXO sighed."Well,no doubt then." Kyungsoo scowled."I'm so sorry that I caused so much trouble today.I'm really sorry.I couldn't control my anger.Please understand me."Mark pleaded again.

They looked at him in pity.Now,they knew that this boy in front of them have his own reason.Chen came up to him.He looked at the others and nodded.Actually they were sending some signals on whether they should forgive him or not.And for Mark's luck,he was forgiven."So,you mean you were just protecting her huh ?" Chen asked nicely.Mark nodded.They sighed again.

"Alright.We understood.Just please,don't make a mess like this again." Chen said.Mark looked at them one by one and smiled a bit."Thank you.Thank you so much." he said over and over again."But...." Chanyeol interrupt.Mark looked at him in wonder.

"You have to apologize to Luhan and Miyoung for your behaviour.Is that a deal ?" he said
