Uh hello!? 100 reads!?? Thank you!!?? ily tysm♡ also, stream tamed-dashed. PALLI.

i woke up in a dark room. i squint my eyes to adjust to the darkness. i brought my hands to rub my eyes but something pulled my hands back. 

i turned around to see my hands tied at the back of the chair that i was sitting on. i tried to move my legs but they were tied too.

where am i?

i scanned the room, trying to look for escape windows like they show in the movies. 

but there weren't any. 

the room was empty. the only thing that was there was me tied to this creaky chair. the room was completely dark. just like when you close your eyes. 

i was scared obviously. how many times do you get kidnapped in a lifetime?

i had this feeling like something or the other was about to happen. something bad. but nothing did. 

my eyes finally adjusted to the darkness. 

the room was small. like, really small. there was a wall in front of me. i turned on either side of me; walls. i turned back, walls. as if this room was made to keep imprisoned people. 

speaking of which, why isn't anyone coming?

then i spotted a small black silhouette at the corner of the room.

my bag! 

if i could get to it, i could get hold of my phone and call Jaehyeon. i tried moving and trying to get away from the rope, but all that happened was creaking of the chair. 

 "shut up, will you?" a muffled voice spoke from outside the room. then the door opened and a guy came in. 

no way. 

it isn't him.

Mr. Wierd Guy?!

"YOU!" i spoke. "i knew you were trouble the moment i saw you"

"well well," he said, sounding calm. " you recognize me, don't you?"

"what do you want from me?!" i screamed, hoping that someone from the outside would hear and come to rescue me. 

suddenly another guy came in. he was in the same outfit as Mr. weird guy; black cap, black mask with black clothes.

"why is the kid screaming so much, Hyung?" he asked. kid? bich u look younger than me.

just then, more people started coming in. same as Mr. weird guy. dressed all in black. who are they?

"meet my men, park luna" Mr. weird guy said. 

"I'm Heeseung," one said. 

"I'm Jake," another said. 

"I'm sunghoon"

"sunoo here"

"jungwon"

"Ni-ki"

"and I'm Jay" Mr. weird guy finally said. "and we're the biggest mafia group in the country. we're MafiaX'

I stared at them. 

"ppffftttt" I broke out laughing. "mafia? oh please, you guys sound like a children's playgroup" I said, not being able to control my laughter. 

suddenly, the jay boi came closer and bent on his knee, facing me. tf he gon' do?

He put his hand in his pocket and took out a...knife?!

"You see this?," he said in a deep voice showing his knife in front of my face, "with this, I killed my entire family, and it wouldn't take me a second to slit your throat too, princess"

He killed his family!?

I was too dumbstruck to respond or do anything. Then he and his gang mates left the place, banging the door close. The room went back to silence and darkness.

***

I woke up to bright on my face. The jay boy was directing a torch at my face.

"The girl lives" one of them, whom I remember from yesterday, the guy called Jungwon said.

"Yeah, I wish I were dead too," I said with a bit of sarcasm. 

Then Jay went around my chair and started untying the ropes. 

"Come," he said after untying the ropes. 

The boys started leaving the room. Jay was the last one to leave.

"Are you coming or not?" He said, turning to me, who was simply enjoying the freedom of being able to stand and move my arms and legs after 24 hours. 

I went behind him, exiting the room. They were probably taking me to another room to keep me hostage, again. 

As soon as I came outside the small room, my jaw dropped. The outside was just the opposite of the room I was held in; the entire floor was made of white marble. There were expensive-looking furniture and painting from famous artists that I remember. There were high ceilings with big chandeliers. 

How come I didn't know about this big house? Either this is out of Korea or I was too blind to notice this place. 

"Come on before I leave you," Jay said, and I instantly fastened my pace. 

The room that he took me to was a dining room. It had a long table, obviously marble, but the food was not that 'rich' looking. It was simple pancakes with maple syrup. 

"really?" I said, "after kidnapping me, you give me breakfast?"

"we're just being considerate, kiddo," Jay said. "you can starve to death if you'd like"

"I'd rather do that than eating your poisoned food" 

"you'd die either way," Ni-ki said. The kid's got a point. I reluctantly went and sat on one of the chairs. 

we ate in silence. it wasn't like they wanted to speak anyway. so I broke the silence.

"Why did you bring me here?"

they looked at me for a second then they turned towards Jay hesitantly. 

"you'll know when the time comes," jay said without looking from his plate.
