Love of Our Lives

Chapter 50 - Who Was That Stranger?

I quickly tell Cheryl what Jimin had told me and we both rushed over to their apartment after ourclass ended. While on our way to their apartment, both of kept looking left and right making surethat we were not being followed or anything. We quietly entered into their apartment andretrieved the guns and keep it safe with us. While we were about to leave Jimin's and Yoongi'sbedrooms, we heard this clinging and clanging sounds coming from downstairs. We were bothfreaked out! "What do we do now twinnie?" Cheryl asked shakily. "Let's find somewhere and hidefirst!" I replied softly.

But before we could even do that, I felt this cloth covering my mouth and soon enough I droppedonto the ground unconscious. The next thing I knew when I opened my eyes was that I amalready in this rectangular container-like place and Cheryl was lying just right beside me. I wantedto wake her up but both of my wrists and ankles are being tied up and I couldn't move much atall! I tried to wriggle around and managed to reach the Cheryl's side. I use both of my hands togently hit on her back but she was still unconscious. I looked around me to see what else I couldfind to at least untie myself and then to help Cheryl untie too. But I couldn't find any. I waspanicking and feeling breathless due to the lack of oxygen inside this container-like place.

Just when I was about to give up and close my eyes, I saw that there was this part where the metalbroke. I used all my strength to wriggle over, picked up the metal piece with whichever fingerscould and then start cutting the rope on my wrists. After a good 15 minutes, I managed to free myhands and started to cut the ropes on my ankles as well. After which, I proceeded to cut the ropesand untie Cheryl. However, she was still in a unconscious state. I tried to shake her, tapped her,doing whatever I can to wake her up. Phew~ Luckily Cheryl woke up after a few more shakes. Shewas looking around and feelings puzzled.

"Shhh..." I placed my index finger onto my lips and signaled Cheryl to be quiet. Cheryl followedsuit and placed her finger onto her lips to prevent herself from making any sounds as well. Ilooked around again and found that there was this hole and I could see what was happeningoutside. There were no one but I could hear mumblings coming from the outside. I looked againand found no one. Looking at this hole made me have an idea. I told Cheryl about my plan andwe began to proceed with it. My plan was to try prying from the opened hole and see if we couldget out from there once the hole get decently big enough for us to pass through.

The surrounding of the hole are quite sharp but I couldn't care less. I just wanted the both of usto faster get out of this suffocating place. It is making us freaking breathless. The both of us usedour remaining strengths to pry open the hole and we eventually managed to pry open the holeinto a size that we both feel that we should be able to pass through. With my bleeding hands, Ihold onto Cheryl and led her out from the place. In the end, both of us managed to get out fromthis container-like place and we looked around to see if there were anyone watching us but thereweren't anyone around. The both us quickly ran into the woods nearby and try to make as littlenoise as possible. We were both running and running, not sure which direction we were runningtowards. Then suddenly, both of us tripped and fell down. Cheryl had hit her head onto a rockand is now lying unconscious on the ground with her head bleeding profusely. I was crying out forCheryl, hoping that she could stay awake. "Wake up my twinnie! Wake up! Don't fall asleep!Please don't! No...!!!"

"HELPP!" I shouted as loud as possible. Wishing someone could hear me!! There are footstepsfollowing closely behind us. And moments later, all I can see is this pair of eyes looking at me.This pair of eyes is so familiar... this kind of stare.. this kind of glare...where have I seen itbefore...??? I tried to think as hard as I could and it suddenly came across my mind. It was mystepfather! I haven't seen him in ages ever since he left the house for another woman! Why is hehere? What does he want from me?

I wanted to scream but my scream is stuck at my throat and I was too weak to move. I wish Icould use all the last strength that I had to phone Jimin but I couldn't do it. I try to search for thegun that we took earlier from their apartment but I guessed I had dropped it somewhere whilerunning. I'm so sorry Jimin!!! I couldn't even protect myself and Cheryl using the gun that youand Yoongi had left for us...What should I do, Jimin? I really missed you. I really want to say "ILove You" and see you once more. I have so many words to say to you but it's all too late now... Somany thoughts are coming through my mind right now and I can't focus anymore.

"What the fuck are you doing here?" Two familiar voices shouted in unison. I was struggling toopen my eyes to see who it was and I saw Yoongi and Jimin running towards our direction. Theywere both carrying guns and were pointing their guns at my stepfather. "Why are you here MrHenderson? This is just between both of our families. Connie and Cheryl has got nothing to dowith this. Let them go!!!" I heard Jimin yelling at him in disgust. "Oh yes. Cheryl doesn't haveanything to do with this but well..my daughter does..." My stepfather replied. I could see Jimin'seyes widened as my stepfather mentioned that. I was in a confused state as well. "Why would I beinvolved in this as well?" I screamed. "Well...it's a long story which only your mom knows.." Mystepfather laughed.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Jimin questioned my stepfather. "Remembered that yourfather was on a mission trying to protect someone from the Hydra? Well...I was the assassin thatwas being appointed to kill that someone whom your father was trying to protect and he had tospoil my whole plan and left me in this kind of state! I was being kicked out from the Hydra eversince and I couldn't go back anymore. Hydra is my entire life! My entire blood! How dare yourfather!!!" Jimin tried to pull the trigger wanting to shoot my stepfather down. But before thatcould even happened, some guy who was behind Jimin shot Jimin down on his left chest! Yoongi dashed over and pinned that guy down onto the ground. I am in a total shock right now asI see Jimin lying down on the ground and there was blood everywhere!
