Broken Pieces || Park Jisung

     A SLAP ON her cheek. A punch on her stomach. A harsh pull on her hair. These were all the things that Mayor Park did to her.

Minha could only groan and cry as she coughed out blood. She glared at the old man before spitting out the red liquid to his face.

"You bitch!"

"Oh, Mayor. Such a foul mouth for someone who smiles innocently in front of people."

"YOU—"

"How I can't wait to see the look on the people's faces when they finally see who you are."

He punched the girl's stomach harder than the first time he did, causing the girl to cough up more blood. But that didn't stop her from speaking her thoughts, even if it meant it taunted the man and lead her to get hurt.

"They'll be able to know how much of a psycho, an asshole and a fucking murderer their mayor is."

"SHUT UP!"

Another sharp pain on her cheek was felt but this time, she didn't cry. No matter how painful it was. She decided that it wasn't worth her tears— or maybe she just didn't have any tears left to cry.

Mayor Park breathed heavily, running his hand to his hair before looking at Sunghoon with wide eyes, his pupils shaking as body shook involuntarily.

There was only one answer to what was happening to the Mayor. He needed drugs.

"I need to take it! I will be back, you bitch!" And with that, he slammed the door behind him, leaving only Minha and Sunghoon.

"What the fuck is wrong with him?" Minha asked, her voice cold as she stared dead straight into the boy's eyes. Sunghoon scoffed at the tied up girl before sitting down at the chair in front of her.

"He's having a withdrawal. The last time he took drugs was two days ago."

"Tsk. Asshole can't hold it on for too long. Wow, if only the public could see what I'm seeing right now! She exclaimed before chuckling humorlessly.

"Ah, how blind can people be." She laughed maniacally, making Sunghoon look at her with a smirk of amusement.

"You're still crazy as ever, I see." She stopped laughing and her lips formed a straight line. Her eyes now blank as she scoffed at the boy with prince-like features in front of her.

"Fuck you."

Sunghoon smiled and this time, it held no mischief, the slyness that he had was now gone. He felt quite relieved that the girl was mad at him.

He sighed before pulling out a gun from the holster that was placed behind his jeans. Minha's eyes widened at the sight of the black pistol, crazy and disturbing thoughts now running through her brain.

"I'm sorry, Choi Minha."

He put in a magazine, cocking the pistol before raising it up, his index finger lightly feeling the trigger before pulling it.

And the loud bang echoed through the small and dim lit room.
