CHAPTER 33

Ah, I knew I had to do something. Go and talk? Of course not. In my entire life I've never even looked up to any girls because I'm scared and I still am. But this woman who's in front of me is just making me rethink my whole life. Can someone have this major influence in you just by looking into their eyes? If yes then I just felt it through every single cell of my body. I won't deny it. She has something, something more than those hazel eyes. I wish to know the depth inside them. Adore them and make her-

Stop it Taehyung, I snapped out of my delusions. This was sick. I was just obsessing over a girl whom I just saw and doesn't even know. What's her name? I don't even know that. I was sure this was just some crush or attraction that the guys get every day.

🌷

I'm wrong, I'm totally obsessed.
Days passed, weeks passed even months.

Now it's the seventh month, fifth day. I've been obsessed with this girl for over seven months. Nim Yn. The flame inside me which never extinguishes. I'm totally whipped for her. But have I ever encountered her? No. Did I try to talk with her? No. Again. Did I at least show her my face? I'm too scared.
T

he only person who knows about my obsession is Jungkook. But he just teases me and leaves me. Even he doesn't know how much this girl is driving me crazy. She works at a cafe as a part-time job. I visit the cafe like every single day, but she has never noticed me. Well how would she? When I'm 4 years ahead of her in a college of about five thousand-plus students. Impossible. And with my shyness. Never going to work out.

I would rather live in my delusions than tell her about my feelings. She's scared of darkness. A little bit of research through Jungkook who helped me through that Loerelei girl of his. Even though she doesn't know about me, she helped him, god knows how. And she more than loves fashion designing, is a single child, and her parents are pretty simple but known. I recall hearing about Mr. Nim from my uncle. I didn't know I would be obsessing over his daughter someday.

But, I'm not the one for her. Her life would be ruined if she chooses me. I don't want her to ever know me. Never. And the way I'm obsessing over her is kind of a concern now. I hope I will be able to control my emotions.

🌷

I lost it. Everything. Just in one night. My dream. My passion. Everything shattered right before me.

It was all fine until evening when I reached my home. These days I was happier because of Yn. I stopped taking my anxiety pills. I even skipped two therapy sessions. And I just forgot about the worst world around me, my aunt and uncle these days. But it was all short-lived.

I was sitting at my desk completing my project when my aunt stormed in and put a paper on my desk. She looked so freaked out. I opened the envelope and took out the paper just to find out it was the application of my designation as the CEO of Kim Enterprises.
"What the-"
"Shh," she interrupted. "Enough with your fashion, Taehyung! We have had enough. It's high time to start doing something for the family rather than still living for the sake of your parents' death," she raised her voice.
I had heard it many times that my whole body just felt numb. No emotions.
"And what if I refuse to?" I said harshly.
"You can't," she scoffed with an awful chuckle. "You are under us, and we will tell you how to live!" she continued. "For god's sake, why can't you guys just leave me alone!?" I could feel myself losing it.
"How dare you raise your voice you-" She slapped me in the face.
"Rachel," it was da-uncle. I still had my head down, not daring to look in his direction. "He won't listen just like that. He's got his father's nerves in him."
"Enough, uncle," I shouted. "Ha! See. Just give him the right treatment, he will agree to it all by himself." He smirked. An ugly smirk.

I knew what they meant. They had power. They could cut my seat in college easily. Drop me out of the college and even make sure I never get a job of my wish. And more than that, they were going to make me beg for it. Shut me up. For days or weeks. Such monsters they were.

"You won't be doing your internship, mister. And that's it. The end of your journey. Now you will be our puppet. Under us. Forever," he says as he locks the door. And there I am left all alone again. And then it hits me. All the anxiousness runs through my body. Panic attack. I started to tremble down, sweating, my breathing pace increasing as the seconds passed.

I sit on the ground as I get a hold of the table. Why? Why do I have to go through all of this pain? I hit the wall. Again and again, until it breaks and bleeds. Satisfaction. My knuckles were bruised, but the pain was better than the internal pain.

I stayed there for four days. They gave me no food or water. Jungkook called me a million times, but I didn't want to involve him in my problems. They won't spare him either. I was adjusted to this treatment by now. Practice of sixteen or more years. How I enjoyed staring at the ceiling forever. I needed therapy. For sure.

I opened my phone to see fifty-four missed calls from Jungkook and twenty-five texts. Plus five texts from my therapist as I've been missing my sessions for the past week.
I once again took the paper and read it.
This is to hereby declare that Kim Taehyung Son of Mr. and Mrs. Kim Jong and Rachel-

How pathetic. Suddenly my phone chimed. It was an email. From my university. Sure. They have done it. My internship has been canceled. I would never get the position ever, even if I receive my graduation certificate. My life is over.

Ending my life was the first thing that popped into my mind, but that would be too easy for my uncle and aunt. I must make them suffer. Every second. And for that, I must act in pleasing to them. I would be the CEO and once I get the power, I'll easily find out the evidence for my parents' accident and lock them up. Even more if I can, Kill them, bury them alive. That would mark my success. It might take me years or longer, but I won't look back. Until I hear them beg and plead under my legs. And then I will be happy again.
I signed the contract of my job offer and sent an extra copy to the company's email. They are going to be surprised.

You will pay for this...

A/n: so there are 3 timelines in this chapter; the beginning is the continuation and then (🌷) it's like after seven months also implying Taehyung's last year in college has nearly come to an end and now he had to complete his internship and then (🌷) after a few days from that event.
