Chapter 21

"how did you find me here!" I said out of shock and at the same time fearing the elevator might fall.

"I didn't! It was only a coincidence!" he shouts.

"please, let go of me! I only wanted to live a life with my grandmother!" I yelled out at him.

"stop taking your fear out on me! Just shut up!" he shouts back. I closed my eyes tightly.

"no, I'm not shutting up! I'm serious about it!"

"shush!" he hushed me. Opening my eyes slowly. We stare at each other with silence. A loud noise was made again, but this time it was a harsh sound and the elevator's lights went off.

"Oh, my God!" I screamed, scared. "we are going to die!" I shout, digging down while holding the elevator wall at the corner.

"Shut up, we won't!" he shouted in frustration.

"I don't wanna die with you!" I yelled back.

"what's wrong with me dying with you?! My soul is alone and so yours is alone! We will not die together even if we did!" he shouts louder. Makes sense, but that's not the point!

"I'm scared! I hate this!" I couldn't see anything. Too dark.

"I'm scared too, goddammit!" he admitted it. I feel him getting closer.

"Stop! Don't even think about it!" I scoot away.

"I'm trying to be nice!" I hear his loud voice.

"with what?!"

"a hug!"

I pushed him away when I felt him getting closer. "no, thank you! Just back off!" I shouted and he moved away to the other corner.

"If it was Jeongguk, you would let him." he says carefully. I was taken aback.

"what?" I say with confusion. What makes him say that?

"You would let him hug you," he says. I was lost at words. It's amazing how he says his name clearly. Right, they know each other. "He is even much worse than me, dangerous than me." what? What is he blabbing about? I mean, yes, I know he is an assassin and the work is dangerous but he didn't harm me. He didn't.

"what are you saying? Why are you talking about this in an unsuitable situation?" I was kind of pissed. I hear his small giggle.

"you got less distressed hearing about him. So, it is a suitable moment to talk about him. Am I wrong?" I say nothing. He laughs, he is enjoying this! We heard voices outside and Taehyung called out for them. I see the door open and light gets in our way.

"this building is still new. That's why the elevator isn't very prepared. I will speak with the owner and figure this out." the old man explained when we got out. After the man left, Taehyung gave me his sarcastically smile.

"what?" I say. He chuckles, shaking his head.

"don't worry. I won't do anything to you. I promise." he says with a serious look.

"not really believing." he frowns.

"why?"

"seriously? You kidnapped my grandmother!"

"Ah, about that. I'm sorry." he says it nicely. "so, are we even now?"

"stop talking to me as if we are friends!" I said, backing away from him.

"ouch. At least I thought we were, Angie."

"and don't call me that-"

"Angie? Nice name. Angie." I rolled my eyes at him. Why is he like that now?
