A little update on Minjae and Hunter's situation.
I just wanted to stall time in revealing it all.

The next chapter will be out soon.
So,
Look forward to it.

Minjae POV

I sat up in bed the next morning, before looking at the clock, it was 5:35 am, still too early to be up. My body still hurt from last night and my heart bled with anger, fear, pain and hope for better days.

Going to work today would be hard because of my condition, so I decided not to.

I picked up my phone and called my manager to tell him I couldn't go in today. He wasn't happy, but still understood that I needed to rest.

I stood up slowly so I wouldn't fall, falling when your ass is on fire is a wrong move. I took small and light steps towards the door so I wouldn't wake that sleeping bulldog.

"You're up early" the dog said, making me halt in my steps.

"I have a lot to do" I answered before walking out.

I got to the kitchen and started picking everything up, from our clothes to the kitchen utensils that were on the counter the night before.

I jumped in surprise when I stood up from picking up my shorts, I felt a hot breath on my neck. Creepy dude won't just let me be.

"Why do you always have to make me the bad person? If you just listen to me, I'd take good care of you" he back hugged me.

"I'm sorry... I'll try my best".

"No Jae, you're supposed to say you'll try your best, always listen to me okay?" He said, turning me around as he held my hands. I nodded in reply as I didn't trust my voice to say anything.

"Look at me" he demanded and I couldn't do it "Look. At. Me"he shouted suddenly and I raised my eyes up slowly to look at him

"Don't mess up, I want the house to be spotless when I come back for lunch, okay?" He asked and I nodded.

"Do I need to remind you again, to use your words?" he gripped my cheeks hard.

"I'm sorry... I understand" I croaked out.

"Good".

In five minutes, he was done and out the house headed to his stupid, shady work.

*****

It was 1:30pm when I finished cooking lunch. I turned off the stove and walked to the cupboard to take out plates and cutleries, when I heard a knock on the door.

I wondered who it was because Bohyun never knocked, it's his house.

I opened the door and came face to face with Hunter, the last person I wanted to see at that time.

"Fuck off.." I warned as I attempted to slam it back shut but he put his feet in-between, stopping it from closing. He pushed it open gently and I struggled to close it. After a few seconds, I let it open, limping back into the house, not looking at him.

"Minjae... Jae baby, wait" he said grabbing my arm to stop me. I ripped my arm away from his grip and walked towards the kitchen.

"Why are you here? Are you trying to get me killed or something?" I paused, gripping the sink "Leave... Leave before he comes back".

"Not until you tell me why you went off the grid. What happened to you?"

"I owe you no explanation" I snapped.

"You do. Do I mean nothing to you? Was everything a lie? How we feel about each other is not a joke... It's real right?" He rambled, his voice shaking with every word.

"I don't like you, I was confused temporarily, it's all over, I'm back to my senses. Bohyun is the only one for me" I yelled.

"Please... Please leave, don't add to my suffering" I begged, tears threatening to spill.

"Come on, I know you don't mean it, your eyes are currently screaming SAVE ME, so why should I leave you here" I turned away from him, tears were ready to burst out of my eyes.

"And why are you all bruised up" I felt his hands on my hands and neck. I didn't move away or push him away, I felt my body relax in his comforting touch.

"You can't be here, you have to leave. Bohyun will be after you if he finds out about this" I warned, turning to look at him again "he promised to spare you, so leave".

"I can't leave you here, come with me"

"Why? I'm stuck with him, he's the only one for me" looking at the clock it was almost 2pm, Bohyun would soon be back for lunch.

"Leave, he'll soon be back" I said, pushing him out of the house "go quick, before he comes".

"Promise you'll call" he suddenly said by the door.

"Who are you to tell me what to do?"

"I know we aren't together yet, but I love you and I want to take care of you" I avoided eye contact with him, I didn't need to crack right there and then.

"I promise, just leave"

He sighed and opened the door, and I instantly knew,

My life was over.
