PSYCHO???

CHAPTER ELEVEN

KYUNG EUNSOO

       I walked into the police station and walked towards the visiting room, thousands of thoughts on my mind

           " Hey kid.....where are you going?"

           " I need to see my father'

           " Visiting hours are over "

           " Please.....just once...it's urgent "

I started walking towards the room and he pulled me by my hand.

           " Officer please "

           " Kid.....visiting hours are over"

  He said and pulled me towards the door. I was starting to get angry.
I pulled my hand out and ruffled my hair.

           " What the fuck is wrong with everyone? My father is innocent. What did you people do to him? I know he would never do something like that ". I yelled and kicked the chairs beside me.

          " Kid listen.....if you don't leave right now, I'll detain you okay?"

          " Fuck you.....Fuck all of you. You people are fucking useless "

I was about to say something else when a hand came over my mouth.

           " I'm so sorry officer....so so sorry. He is in a very bad place right now and he is not thinking straight"

            " Get him out of here right now"

Taemin grabbed my hand and then pulled me out of the building. I pulled my hand away and just stared at him.

             " I don't need your fucking help"

          " Do you think yelling and cursing at them will make them listen to you? Do you think you can just walk into the station and expect them to do as you please?"

          " I fucking begged him but he didn't listen to me "

        " You are too hot headed. You should learn to think things through. Stop making decisions based on emotions alone"

       We sat quietly in the playground and just stared at the ground and random objects.

          " I'm sorry. I really shouldn't even have talked about your dad"
         " I'm sorry...for not thinking things through"
        " You seem so certain about your father's innocence. It's almost like you have some kind of proof.  I'm just curious not sarcastic "
       "He is. It's a long story but he is definitely being framed. He said he saw something that night "

       "Let me help you...Let's solve this mystery together?"
     " Why?"
     " Well.....I just want to. So....deal?"

     He stretched out his hand for a hand shake and stared at me.
        "Let's do it "
I said and took his hand in mine. We walked slowly and awkwardly to the bus stop. Taemin was about to get on the bus when I called out to him.
        "Taemin...can I get your number?"
I slowed my steps and glanced slightly behind me. He was still following me. I increased my pace and turned up an alley and surely he followed. I kept glancing behind as I walked as fast as I could. The flickering street light didn't help one bit. I turned into a corner and rested against the wall hoping to attack him from behind. I stayed really still and quiet and waited...No one showed up. I popped my head out a little but I could hardly make out anything in the dark alley. I came out and was greeted by an empty dark alley. I released the breath I was holding and rested against the wall to catch my breath.
          Suddenly, the light behind me was blocked by a huge shadow. I turned around in horror and was faced by a masked person wielding a knife and walking towards me.

         "Hey!! what are you?What are you doing?"
   He didn't say a word and just kept walking towards me.

        "Hey!! Are you fucking crazy?Can't you hear me?what do you want?Hey!!".
     He ran towards me with the knife in the air. Luckily, I moved out of the way in time. I moved back again as the knife slashed past my face. I felt the blood trickle down my cheek as I picked up a stick that was lying on the ground. I swung the stick across his head, but he was quick to dodge. I walked towards him and kicked him across the chest. He staggered a little and dropped the knife. I felt a little wave of hope as I heard the clank of the knife on the floor. I leaped forward and reached for the knife but fell hard on my face as he grabbed my leg.
      My head felt like it was splitting in half. I groaned and rolled onto my back as I coughed out blood. He grabbed my leg and pulled me towards him.
      "This is just a warning. Accept the fact that your father was a murderer, it's what's best for you...trust me. This is all I can do...I have orders to follow "
    He got off me and walked away. I dragged myself across the floor and pulled myself up. I wiped the blood off my lips and nose.
     "What if...what if they went after Taemin?"
   I turned around and grabbed my phone and punched in his number and waited for him to pick up.
       "I'm sorry but the number you're trying to call cannot be reached at the moment "
        I punched in his number again but it still wasn't reachable. I groaned and punched in Min Ah's number.

         " Oppa....where are you?"

         "I am outside "
           "ok "
           "Min ah is everything okay at home? Is anything off?"

            "What do you mean?Everything's fine but Mom still isn't back yet "
            "What?Didn't you guys go home together?"
          "  We did but she went out to look for you "
           "How long has it been?"
          "About an hour?"
           "Don't go anywhere okay?Lock all the doors and windows. Go to your room, Lock the door and stay put "
          "Oppa What's going on?I'm scared "
          "Just do as I say. I'm going to find Mom. If you're scared, go over to Mrs. kim's house "

           "ok"
      I hung up and made my way into the main street while punching in her number which wasn't going through. I punched it again and held my breath as I waited.
           "Eunsoo...Eunsoo where are you?". Mum said on the other end.
           " I'm at Gyeongchan station ". I said and released the breath I was holding.
          " Okay. Hold on I'm around the area"
        " Okay mum "
....
I was still shaking in fear,and still worried that I might have put Taemin in danger. The door opened and MinAh rushed outand pulled me in for a hug.
            " MinAh are you okay? Did anything happen?"
           " I'm fine. What happened to your face? Where is mum?"
          " Mum is at home"
...
    I sat quietly as mum wiped my face with a wet towel.
           " What did you do Eunsoo? What happened?"
I winced a little as she applied the ointment on the cuts and bruises.
           " Nothing...I just...had an accident "
I went into my room once she was done and started trying Taemin's line. I kept walking in circles as I tried his line the fifth time. I stood still istening to the phone ring, but still no response.
         " Is he okay? Did he get attacked? Why did he cry when he was yelling about my dad? What if he is in danger because of me?"
      I lay on my bed,with my phone on my chest. My head was aching really bad and the throbbing pain at the side of my head increased as I tried to get off the bed. It felt like my head was going to explode.
           I walked sluggishly to the bathroom and turned on the shower. The cold water running down my head, helped to ease the pain a little. I closed my eyes and let the water run down my body. I was still shaken by what happened tonight and my hands were still trembling. A familiar ringing sound pulled me back to reality, as I turned off the shower and listened.
           " Wait.....that's my phone"
I grabbed my phone and checked the screen. Taemin was calling. I dragged the answer button and waited.
       "Eunsoo?"
      " Taemin are you okay? I called you several times "
     " It's a long story. I'll tell you about it tomorrow. I just called to let you know that I am okay "
       " Okay...uhmm...goodluck on your exam tomorrow "
      " Thanks. You too"
