The Ten Years Gap \\ 𝗦. 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗼

🍀 09

Her eyes were shooting daggers while the maids were showing her the numerous wedding gowns. Even the most flamboyant designs didn't change her expression -- She was pissed as hell , just expected.

The maids sensing the atmosphere their young lady was showing, they bowed their heads and left her all alone inside the closet, the gowns were delivered just three minutes again and ever since then her eyes had been narrowed the entire time, her jaw clenched and her fists were tight as she had her arms crossed.

"Is there something wrong with the gowns? Why are you frowning? "

She sighed when she heard the most stupid question coming from her father who went in and gave her a puzzled look.

"Are you seriously asking me that? " She fired back, not even hiding the irritation in her demeanor but her father merely sighed and scoffed after.

"What's so bad about marrying Kisaki?

"Everything."

"You don't know him. "

"Which is why I don't want to marry him, besides not having a single clue who that bastard is-- I can already know he's a scumbag deep down, why would and should I marry him? For the sake of this wicked family ? "

"You don't know what you're talking about, Y/N!" Her father replied with a firm tone.

"Then please explain it to me! You just dragged me into this mansion and suddenly surprised me with that asswipe as a fiance, what the-- You have no right to be irked here! "

For a good fifteen seconds, she waited for the answer and when none came, she immediately went to one of the gowns and started ripping the luxurious fabrics.

"You're acting like a child. "

"You're treating me like one! Ordering me and telling me what I should and shouldn't do! You left me for ten years! Ten fucking years, I was seven when you left me to your brother's care! I was happy with my uncle who despite had numerous criminal records still knew how to love m--"

"THAT BASTARD doesn't love you! He only loves and cares for you because you look like your mother! " He raised his voice causing her to go silent.

Her father put his head down and rubbed his temples, eyeing his daughter who kept shooting daggers at her. Her piercing blue orbs really reminded him of his late wife.

"How do you know what love is, father?" She mumbled and his eyes went wide before gritting his teeth at his daughter.

"I doubt you know what love is cause you--"

"Be careful with your words, young lady." He threatened but Y/N wasn't less affected.

"Cause you killed your own wife when you just saw her and uncle Shuji getting along. You knew you couldn't fight uncle Shuji, which is why you took your anger on your wife-- My mother who loved you for years and you also hated your youngest brother who did nothing but wished for you happi--"

The sound of slap echoed through the entire room making her stop, her father pushed her away as he started shouting profanities at her but she couldn't hear any of it. Her mind was in pure chaos.

She missed her mother, her uncle, her friends and most importantly him.. She just wanna go back to where they were and leave this sudden arranged marriage.

"You will marry Kisaki, Y/N. That's final! " And with that he left the room with the sound of the door closing making her ears wince from how loud it was.

Y/N who had been holding back tears this entire time, raised her head up and let the small tears flow down her cheeks and she mumbled; 'Where are you..? '

Her eyes went wide from shock and she immediately covered herself when he door flew open once again, the sounds of gunshots invading her ears and she immediately opened the drawers to find some sort of weapon.

What was happening?! The mansion is heavily guarded 24/7!? What was the sudden ruckus?!

While searching for weapons, a shout of surprise left her lips when two arms suddenly wrapped around her torso, she quickly turned her foot and used her elbow-- about to hit the person but she stopped midway when she saw the familiar smile and eyes and faster than a blink of an eye, she pulled him for an embrace, desperate to see him and touch him after just mere hours they didn't see each other.

"Shin.. "

Shinichiro smiled, hugging her back and pressing his lips against hers gently before pulling back. "Let's leave? "

She immediately nodded , all hopes going back to her system but that was when the gunshots behind stopped and a closer gun cocked on the door. Her eyes trembled in fear; seeing her father standing on the door, blood all over his face and he had his gun pointed to Shin's head.

"Dad--! No! " She shouted , taking Shin by surprise and before he could turn around. She switched their positions, her back facing her father as the sound of gunshot echoed through the entire mansion.

Shin's eyes wide, blood pooled the floor as he held his lover's body in his arms. His eyes shaking in fear when the blood got thicker and darker on such amount of blood loss.

A loud 'THUD' echoed through the room as the body fell down, unconscious and cold.
