My Small Little Girl

Chapter 26

"Jin!! Why is it so dark here!?"

Jisoo yells as she opens the bedroom door. She looks around only to find darkness.

"Is it blackout?" She mumbles.

As she steps outside, she felt something liquid on her step. Her eyebrows furrow.

"Jisoo."

Her head snaps to the voice. The light opened and a guy is sitting there but she couldn't see who.

"You are mine. Understand?" The male voice spoke.

"W-Who are you? J-Jin!! Someone is h-here!!!" Jisoo yells.

The guy laughs so hard and stood up. His back facing Jisoo plus with dim light so she couldn't see clearly.

"I already warn you, sweetie. I warn you over and over yet still...you ignore it." He pauses and continues. "Now...see. What have you done to your...beloved man?"

Jisoo frowns. "W-What do-do you mean?"

He chuckles creepily. "Look down, honey."

Her head slowly went down. By that, her eyes slightly widened, jaw dropped, shaky breath, shaky hands, body stiff, and heartbeat racing so fast.

Jin is laying on the floor with a bullet hole through his forehead and the liquid she steps in is his...blood.

There are no words that came out. What she heard is the guy laughing.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Jisoo yells at the top of her lungs. She breaths so heavy and sweating as if her aircon is turned off.

Bad...dream?

Her hand still shaking. She touches her face still wet by her years and her sweat.
"It feels...so...so real..." She mutters.

The frustration takes over her. "It getting worst day by day. I know it is not only me who is in danger. But I can't tell Jin."

As she tried to calm herself down, her panic came again.

"Jin!!" Jisoo gasp and throws away her blanket and rushes outside.

She looks around the living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, backyard still...no sign of him.

The scene keeps flashing inside her head. "No. No. It can't be!!"

Her hands reach to grab her hair.
"Where is he!? Jin!!!! Where are you!? Please!! Answer me!!!" Jisoo yells desperately.

Suddenly, the front door reveals Jin holding two cons of ice cream. He stops eating when saw Jisoo who look like a mess.

"Good morning. You woke up earl-ooffhh!!!" Jin huffs as the girl throws herself in his arms, hugging him.

There's an awkward silence for Jin but this woman. He blinks his eyes and looks down.
"Um...Jisoo? Are you...okay?" He asks.

"Where...Where-Where are you-you just now?" She asks. Her stutters make Jin confused.

Is she this...afraid?

"I just heard the ice cream truck so I thought to buy some for us." He answers.

"Please...tell me first." Jisoo's hands grip his clothes tightly.

Jin looks at her with worried. He slowly pushes her back and bends down to her height.

"What's wrong?" He asks, with concerned eyes. "Is something bothering you?"

"I...I have a dream." She mutters.
