One Spring Morning

Not a Fool

*skz fans let me introduce you Hyunjin psssh*

*tw: flirting, torture, electric shock, excruciating pain*

I follow father down a hallway which has nothing but mirrors, glass mirrors every inch of the way.

My Father has some of my genes, graceful and confident in his actions there's a young boy standing next to him the same age as me. He has long blonde hair and his eyes are crystal blue. He has leather gloves on but all sorts of complex machines are attached to his arms and chest. He's like a robot.

"Hyunjin, take my daughter into the electric chair room." Dad suddenly turns around and stares at me. He clicks his fingers impatiently and Hyunjin drags me into a room.

"Bang, will you hurry up!" Dad yells from outside the room and another dude comes to his side. "Take my son into the opposite electric chair room."

Hyunjin drags me into the electric chair room and presses my body roughly into the chair. The chair is like those one's in the dentist clinic. Except there are wires, like prickly thorns entwining all across the seat.

"Sit down, but don't make yourself comfortable." Hyunjin smirks and sits down on a stool watching me. His bright blue eyes stare down at me, his finger moves to wipe blood off his mouth. I watch Beomgyu's terrified face staring at the glass gap on the door, he's scared for me. Huening kai slams angrily on the glass, demanding that I get let out.

"No need to look a lost puppy, girl. It will be over in a few seconds." Hyunjin says spinning the rings on his many fingers.

"You seem quite the tiger, I think we would make great friends." I pick at my nails, counting from 1-10 in French, a calming mechanism.

Hyunjin puckers up and laughs. It looks like he's distracted by me. "I've heard of you, you know." Hyunjin mumbles and stares at the glass pane attached to the door, he zones out.

My long fingers reach out and quietly take the buzzer which causes the electric shocks. I lean closer to Hyunjin. "How long have you been stuck in this building for?" I say softly.

"Ever since I came out from the womb." Hyunjin says sadly, playing with the scars on his hands. I reach out and touch his cheek, stroking it gently. "It's okay y'know, your secret is safe with me."

"The only way for me to ever be anything, was to be my absolutely worst." Hyunjin whispers and rubs his hands together.

I felt sorry for Hyunjin really, to be taken away by my father and go through excructiating pain. I couldn't imagine it for myself nor could I imagine it for Hyunjin.

"You know we could be really good friends." Hyunjin smiles, "I've heard so much about you, your father would always compliments you." Hyunjin adds.

"I just wanted to let you know, that at the end of the day, no matter how evil your father is, he always loved you. That was genuine. I knew that." Hyunjin continues and strokes my blue hair.

"Thank you, if I could I would take you in my company I believe we could make good friends." I smile a genuine smile. My heart thumps slowly.

"I guess this is our common ground." Hyunjin says.

"Yeah."

"Glad to finally get to know you Balleli."

"You too Hyunjin."

"And I really don't want to electrocute you."

"Thank you."

I lean in closer to Hyunjin.

"You're really handsome." I blurt out. I know how to play the game.

"Really?!" Hyunjin laughs and touches his face.

"Yeah. You don't deserve to just sit there, come closer." I smile, an evil smile.

Hyunjin comes closer, "Your father was right. You have nice narrow eyes that are super dark in colour."

I smile a bright smile. "Mhmm." I play with his little ponytail and lean closer to him.

I can feel Hyunjin's cheeks flush. "You have a boyfriend don't you??"

"Shhh..." I let out a breathy laugh and wrap my arms around his neck. "We don't talk about that."

Just a few seconds, just a little longer.

"You like flirting with-" Hyunjin starts but I finish things off.

My hand move to his throat and I clench his vocal chords hard.

With a bit of swing he lands on the electric chair.

"YOU'RE AN IDIOT HYUNJIN!" Father's voice booms through the loudspeaker in the room.

My hands move quickly to my jacket pocket, where was that controller.

I press the button quickly and the electric wires wrap around Hyunjin's body, flashes of bright blue sting my eyes. The electric wires are like vines, they grasp every inch of Hyunjin's body as he writhes in pain.

"HOW COULD YOU?" Hyunjin yells angrily at me.

"I'm not the cheating type." I say flatly.

"I'm sorry Hyunjin. Some things must be done. In another life, maybe we would have been friends." I say sadly. Grab the bobby pin in my hair and latch it onto the lock, the door swings open.

Plan 1: executed.
