"No."

He made his answer short and sweet.

And at the very moment he said that, I felt as though my whole world has crushed. Neither did he know that this simple lie of his could make a huge impact on me.

From the corner of my eyes, I could already see Tammy shaking her head at me. Papa and Mama Tuan both had solemn looks on their faces, whereas Grace was just staring blankly at me. However, I do not care about what others may think of me. What matters most now is Mark. He is my everything now. I need him to trust me.

Taking in deep breath, I bravely leveled my eyes with his.

The same pair of eyes, the same expression and the same mood. How can I ever forget that? It was exactly like the one he gave me when he found out about my real identity the last time.

And this just shows one thing.

He doesn't trust me.

"GEOJISMAL!", I finally lost my temper and started yelling agitatedly at Joey, forcing Yugyeom to hold me back again.

"Noona, geumanhae...", Yugyeom tried to calm me down from the back but the more I thought about it, the more agitated I got.

It was only when a pail of water got splashed onto my face that I finally woke up.

"JEONGSHIN CHARYEO!", the voice bellowed and I shut up immediately.

I was shivering from the cold water and I looked up to find Mark staring at me in fury.

Mark... Not those eyes please... Not those... I was only telling the truth... I was crying badly in my heart but nobody knows.

I let a tear escape from my eye as I continued to deliver this message to him through my eyes.

Sadly to say, he never got it.

"It's late already. We are all done for the day and let's call it quits. We have mountain climbing to do tomorrow, so let's get some rest before the sun rises", he paused and then continued coldly,

"And, let her stay here if she wants to."

That was all what he said, before he made his way up back to his room.

Joey, Tammy and Grace trailed quietly behind him. Papa and Mama Tuan both gave me a pat on my shoulder before they made their way back up. And as for Jessica, she didn't forget to make a face at me before leaving.

Therefore, it only leaves with Yugyeom and I now.

"Yugyeom-a, go back up and sleep", I told him as I struggled to wipe away those tears that were slowly streaming down.

"Ani, let me stay here with you noona..."

YUGYEOM'S POV

I stumbled to where noona had collapsed at and sank down beside her, whispering to the weeping figure.

"Noona, gwaenchanayo?", I idiotically blurted.

She was clearly NOT okay.

She raised her hand ghostly and wiped the tears pouring from her eyes away from her cheeks. She stuck her fingers under the edges and wiggled them around a bit, slapping away my hands when I tried to help her.

As soon as she had cleared her tears away, a fresh torrent bust forth. Her body was wracked with great sobs and she shook like a leaf. I pulled her to my chest where she stayed until her crying subsided.
