Chapter 29

"I said no, you won't go to work today.

"What the hell? And said will go! Who are you to even control my life?" I repeat.

"Listen. I have already said what I want. Now, do as I say."

He's been getting on my nerves lately with his constant nagging. Today was the day that I was meant to work to make up for the appointment I missed. I wasn't a fan of going to work on my day off, but I was given no choice.

"Can I atleast know the reason, please?" I was slowly starting to give up on him. Ever since he took over my house, we have done nothing other than argue. Even then, he has been annoying, rude, crazy, flirty but never been this demanding so far. If he thinks he can control my life by threatening me, then I would like to clear his misunderstanding.

He doesn't answer me though; He thinks for a while before replying. "I want to spend time with you."

It wasn't hard to know that he was lying, those eyes could never lie to me. As Shawnie or Shawn, the eyes of his never changed. "I am saying I am going. You can't make me stay at home," I shout. "I swear to god if you come near me again." I stop as he was about to approach me. My breathing was slightly quickened due to the extended period of arguing, I absolutely hated how he was making me feel.

"Urvi...Please..." Shawn sighs.

"No." form a fast in order to control my anger. "Just no. You already made my life a living prison."

"What? When did I ever do that?" He feels offended. His eyes were glued to me, with an expectation of an answer that I couldn't provide. The reality is that he's living with me. Yes, he's technically the Shawnie we all adored, but he was different. He wasn't friendly or sweet like the Shawnie I loved. He never gave me a nice cuddle or randomly kissed my cheek. I only received a daily dose of perverted comment, few arguments and his constant opinion throwing at my face for everything. Adding his random possessiveness over me whenever I talk to Jungkook or any male to matter.

"Forget it." I fold my arms together.

"No, I am not forgetting it. Last time remember i did not stop you from doing anything."

"You did. You practically were threatening me to live with me. You are living in my house forcibly where I can have no privacy. What else do you need?" throw back at him.

"Do you hate me that much, me living with you?"

I think before answering, "Yes, I hate it." I could see something shifting in his eyes. It wasn't anger, it was something more gentle than that.

"Am I that bad?" He at last asks.

I sigh for the last time.

"Yes, you suffocate me. I hate you."

His eyes stiffen, blocking all the emotion to come at him. "Alright. You can get lost and go to work."

My heart was racing with a known reason. I did not mean to say those words, cause I know they weren't true. Seeing Shawn hurt, made my heart ache slightly. But, I was too busy thinking about my job at the moment. In that note,I slam the door and leave the house.

-

I shift side to side uncomfortably. Checking my phone, I received 13 unread messages from Lucy, reminding me that I am late. My shift usually finishes at 5 pm. But today, I was meant to do overtime as well as to stay overnight in the hospital covering a shift for someone in the emergency department.

I took a short root that I know fewer people travel to, but the path was known to me so I decided to go there in order to reach the workplace early.
