OMNISCIENT
Mark was the first one whom Sana dialed to inform about her pregnancy. She wanted to keep it a secret from Taehyung for a while, so she can surprise him with it. Upon hearing Sana's news, Mark's jaw dropped while his friend just giggled softly. He can't believe that she's about to have a family now. This is the only time that they had a conversation again because of what happened to Sana back then.
"Hey, you there Mark?" She asked.
Mark shook his head sideways quickly, so he can get back from reality and recover from what she told him. "You really are one heck of a woman." Sana laughed from how he reacted. "This is a shocker, you know."
"I know that you're shocked." She smiled and leaned back to her swivel chair. She looked at her wrist watch and noticed that it's already lunch hour. "Wanna grab lunch?"
He made a cute frown and sighed, "Tae is just around the corner, Sana."
"I told him not to be jealous anymore." She explained. "This might be the only time that we'll see each other again since we're both busy. We're both CEOs, remember?"
Mark wanted to disapprove, but whenever he thinks that this might be the only time that they'd talk again, there's something in him that tells him to say yes. So instead of refusing her, he hummed a yes and asked where could they both have lunch.
Sana hummed as if she's thinking hard where will they want to eat. "I'll just go to the hotel that you have there in Incheon."
"You're in Myeongdong, right?" She hummed a yes. "It'll take you an hour or so by taking the subway."
"Don't worry, Mark. I can handle myself." Her smile widened. She started fixing her things, so she can go already.
"I'll just go to you."
"What? It's alright, Mark. You don't have to." She refused to what he offered. She doesn't want to be a bother to him, so she wanted to be the one who'll visit him him instead.
"I'm on my way. See you."
"Mark--!" As usual, Mark didn't listen to what Sana ordered. He ended the call and continued walking towards the subway, so he can get to Myeongdong.

After an hour passed, Sana decided to go to the cafeteria right away. She took her phone and purse with her as she makes her way down through the elevator. As soon as the doors opened, it welcomed Mark, causing her to smile widely and hug him right away.
"It's been so long!" She gladly said and looked at him. He's grown a light layer of moustache against him face. "God, look at those stubbles."
Mark frowned and slapped her hands away from his face gently. Sana laughed at how he reacted. "You're making fun of me."
"Nah, let's go." Sana held his wrist and grabbed him towards the cafeteria. Those gestures made people to eye them. Their eyes all followed Sana and Mark's direction. Some of those people even gossiped from what they saw. "What do you want to eat? My treat!" She asked excitingly as she looks over the counter to see the list of dishes.
Mark stared at her for a while and unconsciously smiled. Sana is like his girl bestfriend and seeing her overjoys his heart. He really missed his best friend. Sana glanced at him and caught him staring at her. She didn't want to take it seriously, so she laughed and teased him.
"Stop smiling, silly. I know you missed me." She said proudly. Mark wanted to puke after hearing her words. Those words were true, but he doesn't want to admit it. "C'mon, tell me what you want to eat."
"Anything. I'll get us a table." She nodded while he left her on the counter. He didn't find it hard to search for an empty table since there are many tables in the cafeteria. He sat on the chair and waited for Sana to come with their food. He knows that a lot of people are staring at him and gossiping about him which he found a little bit awkward. It made him uncomfortable because he knows that they may be the topic of the news tomorrow.
"Hey, babe!" Sana almost jumped on her place when Taehyung suddenly gave her a backhug. She smiled and turned around to see him. She didn't know that he's going to visit her today. "Is that your order? That's a lot." She giggled and shook her head sideways.
"Do you remember Mark? He's gonna join me for lunch." She held both of his arms and remained smiling. Taehyung thought why he wasn't invited to her lunch. She knows that she could invite her fiancé anytime, but he felt a bit sunken. "Hey, you jealous again? I told you not to be jealous of anyone anymore." She held his cheeks and pinched the both of them. Taehyung held her arms and chuckled in a handsome way which made Sana's heart flutter all over again.
"Let me join for lunch." He asked.
Sana nodded right away, "Sure. Order anything you want, okay?" He nodded and then they both looked at the cashier who's waiting for their order. "Don't make him pay for it."
"What? Babe, I can manage--"
"It's okay, babe." She smiled and gave him a peck. "Can you place these on our table? Look for Mark."
"Okay. I'll wait for you." She nodded and watched him carry the tray towards Mark's direction. Sana's grins went softer as she watches her fiancé. Her gaze went back to the cashier and told her the food that Taehyung would surely be delighted after eating it.

Sana kicked Mark's leg under the table because he's about to spit out the thing about her pregnancy and wedding plans. Mark groaned which made Taehyung's eyebrows furrow from how he acted. Innocently, he asked Mark if he's okay.
"I-I'm fine. A-An ant just bit me." Mark massaged his foot and glared at Sana for that thing. She gave her a meaningful look. It probably means that he should shut up or else he'll be dead by morning. It seemed like he got what she wants to convey, so he decided to remain silent. "A-Anyway," of course, he initiated to open up a topic. "Why am I not invited to Tzuyu and Jungkook's wedding?" He acted like he's a little bit grumpy and sulky at the same time.
"Maybe they don't know you." Taehyung frankly answered.
Mark almost choked, "Excuse me? Why not? I'm one of your classmates before, remember?" He acted like he's so offended which made the couple laugh a bit. He rolled his eyes, "You forgot about me, huh." He pouted.
Sana giggled, "I'll ask them. Don't worry. For sure you'll be invited anyway. Who doesn't remember you?" She asked as she takes a sip from her milkshake.
"Yeah, everyone remembers you." Taehyung said plainly. "You're the guy who did the dare back then." Mark's eyes widened a little. He's a little shocked of what Taehyung said. He's amazed because he can still remember it, but a little bit embarrassed as well. He head is head low and awkwardly remained silent. "Don't worry. I'm over that already. It's been years, you know."
"Tss. You don't have to mention about it, babe." Sana told her fiancé. They continued eating their lunch although Mark is still awkward with Taehyung. He has always been supportive of Sana when it comes to her relationship with Taehyung, but he still feels like Taehyung doesn't acknowledge it.
After finishing their meal, Taehyung excused himself, so he can go to the men's loom for a while. And so, Sana and Mark were the only ones left on the table. Sana saw how he acts, so she decided to cheer him up.
"Hey, don't overthink whatever Tae said." She held his hand and squeezed it tightly. "He's cool about you. Don't worry." Mark sighed and crossed his arms. He leaned back on his chair and smiled a little.
"Okay." Mark breathed deep. "But you'd still have to invite me over your wedding. If you don't, our friendship is over."
Sana laughed, "God, of course I'll invite you! You're even the first guy whom I told about me being preggy--"
"Ssh, Taehyung is coming back." Mark sushed her because he knows that her secret might be blown anytime. When Taehyung came back, they both stood up right away. Mark thanked them for the meal and went on his way. Taehyung wanted to ask him if he wants a ride, but Mark said that he lives in Incheon. Taehyung just let him be and then they were left.
"Do you have work later?" She asked Tae.
"You know that I'm a regular performer already." He smiled held her hands. "I have thought about the auditions." Sana's eyelids widened. She lent her ears to what Taehyung is going to say. "I'll give it a shot."
"Really?" Her grins widened as soon as she confirmed that Taehyung wants t try auditioning.
He nodded, "Yes. A happy wife means a happy life, right?" He pulled her close towards her direction and hugged her tightly.
