ログインMark immediately turned his back toward Anna so she wouldn’t notice the panic on his face. After what had just happened, his heart was pounding so loudly that he could literally hear the thumping in his chest.He glanced once at Anna’s photograph in his hand and quickly tucked it safely into the inner pocket of his jacket. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and then looked toward the drawing board.The sheet clipped onto it caught his attention. He removed it from the board and looked at it once. Though the sketch was technically his, every single line of it had been drawn while holding Anna’s hand.“I-I’m taking this sketch with me,” he said casually, glancing over it.“What? Hey, what will you do with this sketch? I have to submit it to the drawing teacher today!” Anna protested.“What can I do about that? That’s your problem. You deal with it,” Mark shrugged.“Look, Mark, I have to give this sketch to the teacher no matter what. You can’t take it, okay?” Anna said, now clearly
Mark’s gaze refused to move away from Anna’s pink lips. Slowly leaning in, he kept getting closer and closer to them. When Anna saw him coming nearer, her wide eyes grew even wider—almost three times their size.Was he about to kiss her?The thought alone stirred her heart. Should she let him… or stop him right there? A battle broke out between her heart and mind. In the end, her heart won, and Anna tightly shut her eyes in acceptance.Her nose was still bleeding, the blood messily spread across her face.Mark was much taller than Anna. As he bent toward her, he carefully observed every expression and movement of hers. When barely an inch remained between their lips, Mark suddenly snapped back to his senses.What was he about to do?Kiss… and that too Anna?How could such a thought even cross his mind?He could faintly smell blood in her breath. Instantly, he controlled the emotions rising inside him and slightly pulled his face back.“Anna,” he called softly.Anna still had her eyes
The very picture she had just clicked was now displayed on the phone screen.“Keep this here in front of you, and don’t let the screen turn off, okay?”Anna could feel that Mark was sitting extremely close to her. She could feel his warm breath near her neck. With every breath he took, a shiver ran through her body.“So… what exactly are you doing?” she somehow managed to ask, trying to control her nervousness.“Well, since you clearly won’t be able to finish the drawing, I’m helping you with it,” Mark replied, slightly teasing her.Anna was a little confused. “H-How will you help me?”But instead of answering, Mark reached forward and held Anna’s right hand—the one holding the pencil. He glanced carefully at the picture on the phone and then slowly began moving her hand over the paper.The moment he held her hand, Anna panicked. She tried to pull her hand away in nervousness, but Mark tightened his grip and stopped her.“Why are your hands shaking so much? Is this how you’re going to
'What kind of thoughts are coming into your mind, Anna?'Anna tried to swallow and moisten her dry throat, attempting to act normal. Suddenly, Mark turned back toward her. It didn’t take him long to catch her gaze.“You haven’t even started the drawing yet.”Anna immediately lowered her eyes in embarrassment.“I’ve been watching you for a while. You keep sneaking glances at me. Just staring at me won’t make the sketch—you’ll have to move your hands too.”Mark teased her further.Anna felt like picking up the drawing sheet and hiding her face behind it. But she absolutely didn’t want Mark to get the impression that she was actually stealing glances at him. So, cutting him off confidently, she said,“W-Who said I was looking at you? Don’t give yourself so much importance, okay? I was just thinking about how to start the drawing. But you always need an excuse to praise yourself.”Mark glanced at her once and flicked the almost-finished cigarette toward a corner. Then he leaned slightly c
Mark suddenly started taking off his jacket, and seeing this, Anna panicked badly. Staring at him with wide eyes, she nervously took two steps back. Mark glanced at her and then made an annoyed face. “Ugh! It’s so hot in here. I don’t have any desire to die from the heat, okay? That’s why I’m taking off my jacket.” “B-but you’ve also unbuttoned your shirt,” Anna protested immediately. As soon as he opened two buttons, his chest became clearly visible to her. Mark was standing at least four steps away, yet Anna could distinctly sense the mixed scent of mint and tobacco coming from him. Even with that distance, she was getting extremely nervous. Helplessly, she looked around. The classroom doors and windows were tightly locked, and she was alone in that closed room with him. She gulped nervously. What if Mark is planning to do something… something wrong with her? The thought alone made her panic, and she suddenly burst out, “Don’t you dare! If you take even one step forward, I—I’l
Mark and Anna were in an empty classroom at the moment. As soon as Anna stepped inside, Mark locked the classroom door. He had actually arranged a quiet, empty classroom where Anna could draw peacefully. But right now, her face showed nothing but unrest. “What do you want, Mark? Why did you bring me here?” she asked, clearly disturbed. “What do I want?” Mark looked at her with a smile. “Of course, a beautiful drawing—so that everyone can believe my choice isn’t wrong.” Anna closed her eyes, trying to control her anger, took a deep breath, and said, “Do you even know what you’re doing, Mark? Because of this stunt of yours, have you even thought what my classmates and my professor will think about me?” Mark shrugged carelessly. “That’s none of my business. People will think whatever they want. What can you and I do about it?” Frustrated, Anna slammed the pencil in her hand onto the desk. “Look, you—!” Mark leaned casually against a desk, gave her an innocent smile, raised his eyeb
Mark turned and came close to her once again. Anna was regretting her words inwardly."Get off the bed right now." Mark peered into her eyes and said. "What?" Anna was completely shocked by his words. "I said, get down. And tonight, you will sleep on the floor," Mark told Anna with a crooked smil
Anna's condition at this time was exactly like that of a woman who becomes scapegoat after being caught by a butcher. The thought of spending the night in the same room with Mark was making her condition worse due to fear. It wa very difficult to lift it. Trouble was clearly visible on his face."Do
Mark's desk was the perfect height. Also, the chair kept there was incredibly soft and comfortable. Just thinking about how much fun it would be to work sitting there, a wave of happiness washed over Anna. Mark put his hands together, cast a glance at her, and with his charming smile that utterly c
Anna glanced at Mark and then realized she still had a few A4 sheets of paper left. A thought suddenly popped into her mind, and with a smile, she picked up a paper and a pencil. The next moment, her pencil started moving across the paper, and the diagonal and crooked lines etched on the paper be
