The Criminal's Obsession || Nishimura Riki

revenge?

It was quite late at night, she had dinner with Sunghoon today because Jay and Riki weren't present and still haven't returned yet.

Since she couldn't sleep and wanted to wait for him, she decided to stay in his room. On her way, she had found an empty sketch book which she brought with herself.

She's not that good in drawing but that is still one of thing she enjoys doing a lot, and since she couldn't find anything to do for now, she decided to give it a try.

On the other side, Jay and Riki were on their way back to home with Riki driving the car and Jay sitting on the passenger seat.

"What were you doing to her earlier? I heard noises" Clearing his throat, Jay questioned whilst still looking in front.

"I hear noises everytime noona comes over, but you didn't saw me complaining now do you?" Jay gave him a glare before looking out of the window.

"We are dating, plus we're adults but you two aren't, besides she's just here because of our mission." Jay declared, taking out his phone to scroll through it.

He didn't had a respond to it, he didn't knew what to say, what Jay meant is that they're not completely adults, as he just turned 20 and she's 18, and that's why he had restrained himself earlier from doing something further to her.

Moreover, her staying here just because of the mission is true as well. She was like a stranger who had managed to create a place in their hearts.

"Not anymore"

"Huh" Jay gazed at him cluelessly, who didn't seemed to be bothered looking back at him.

"She's not here just because of the mission" With that he stopped the car and got out, as they have already reached home. Jay just watched him going inside before doing the same

Since they already had their dinner, Riki went straight to his room, entering inside he saw her laying on her stomach and drawing something, whilst kicking her feet in the air.

He locked the door behind, gaining her attention as she got up immediately when she saw him, closing the sketch book and placing it aside somewhere she turned to face him when she realised that she's still wearing his shirt.

"I will return your shirt t-tomorrow" She said quietly, looking up at him for a split second before diverting her gaze.

"Have you eaten?" She nodded at him, asking the same to him as he nods too in return.

"I-I will go now" She slowly made her way over to the door, reaching out to the doorknob when a hand was pressed on top of hers.

"Sleep with me" He whispered, reaching out to her other hand before turning her around.

Picking her up gently, he walks over to the bed and placed her down before taking off his coat, she watches as he gets on the bed with her.

She laid down immediately with her back facing him, not having the courage to face him as she felt him laying down next to her.

"So, are you going to tell me now?"

"W-what?" She asked, wondering what he meant, whilst he sneaks his arm around her waist and turns her around in a flip.

She bites her lips, opening her eyes slowly then closing it again when she saw his gaze piercing through her.

He places a kiss on her neck and then she had her eyes wide open, staring at him before moving her head to the other side shyly.

"How did you get that scar?" He watched as her smile faded and expression changed into the nervous one.

"I was ironing and it fell on my waist" She looked away from him, earning a chuckle.

"You're cute when you lie" She makes an expression of getting caught whilst he pulls her more closer, tapping on her waist impatiently.

"You won't hurt me if I tell you?"

"Say it" He caress her waist gently with a sense of reassurance and tucks a strand of hair behind her ear.

"It was- it was my dad" She looked up at him to see his reaction but his expression didn't seem to be changed as he wraps her arms around his neck to make her comfortable and reassures her to keep going.

"Back then, my parents used to like me a lot but something happened when I turned 15 and since then they never treated me well." She rested her head on his shoulder, whilst he silently listened to her.

"I once eavesdrop on their conversation secretly, and I got to know that I had a disease and for it's treatment, they needed to prepare a lot of money." He didn't mind her taking breaks in between before continuing again.

"They borrowed money from someone for my treatment, the treatment was successful before my 15th birthday and everything was back to normal, but once I turned 15, dad started to receive less and less patients even as a head doctor, which caused him so many loses and he couldn't return the money he borrowed for my treatment." She stared in space for a while before releasing a sigh.

"I heard that the person he borrowed money from was very dangerous and because of that my parents used to be so stressed out everytime, and me being the reason made them distant from me. At first they just used to ignore me but afterwards they started to dislike me, they'd always blame me for every wrongdoing, yell at me and beat me." She looked down, biting her lips to prevent herself from crying.

"One day, I was ironing clothes when dad came to my room, he looked mad and I didn't knew the reason, when he saw the iron in my hands he took that from me and-" He looked at her to check if she was crying but she seemed to be drifting off in her dreamland instead.

"He pressed that on my waist and it hurted-" Her voice were barely audible but he could still hear it, since her face was just inches away from him.

"So much" Her voice almost like a whisper, faded by the end before she fell asleep completely.

He gazed at her snoring softly and sleeping peacefully by now when he receives a call from someone.

"Bring that girl at my place tomorrow for me to deal with, it's Ken's order." Steven waited for his response, whilst he looked at her again, caressing her lips with the back of his fingers.

"See you tomorrow then" With that he ended the call, placing it on the table before turning to her.

Somehow this phone call clarified everything or else he would have still been fooled. Now that he have agreed to meet him tomorrow, he needs to prepare for the first step of revenge that he's going to take tomorrow.
