Hi Stranger? | Seulrene

Chapter VIII

Flashback to five years ago...

Irene's POV

"Nothing happened." I got startled when he suddenly spoke. I look at him.

I don't even know what emotion to put out now. I couldn't even find myself to cry, even if I wanted to. I don't know if I should be scared or should I fight him.

"Joohyun! Are you even listening? No one should--"

A notification on my phone suddenly pop up. When I took a glance at it,  suddenly I felt so bad.

Did I just cheated on her? But I didn't want it to happen, he forced... fuck!

"Joo--" when I felt his touch I move away quickly.

Remembering my girlfriend just made me mad now, more than I am scared.

"Don't touch me!" I raised my voice on him. I look at him in disgust. "I'll sue you." I said to him.

"I just said," she grabbed me by my arm. I met his eyes and he's in rage now "no one should know or else--"

"Are you trying to threaten me now?" I wanted to come out strong, even after what happened.

"Let go of me." I said trying to get off from his hold. "Was what you did to me not enough?" I felt his grip tightened. I hissed in pain.

"Don't you ever tell anyone--"

"That you took advantage of me?" I said. "That you technically raped m--" with that I recieved a slap from him.

I feel like crying already but I'm not going to let him see me like that. I look up to him with a glare.

"Don't act like you didn't want it to happen." Unbelievable! He's sick in the head.

"You drugged me dumbass! How was I suppose to know what was happening!?" I pushed him. I couldn't even remember a thing, it's all hazy.

I was just in his office, waiting for Seulgi, and he offered me a drink. Then it all turned black. Next thing happened was me waking up in his bed.

"You knew I have a girlfriend! I have Seulgi already!" I felt like crying now. "She fucking trusted you! I was suppose to meet her."

"Did you really expect me to believe that you really wanted my cousin? That you would literally pick her over me?!" He said to me. I look at him in disbelief. I thought we're already done with this? I thought he already accepted us?

"I ALREADY DID!!!" I shouted at him. Making sure that fact get into his head already. "I'm fucking gay! Why can't you people get that?!" 

"You're just confused."

"And raping me was your way of taking me out of that confusion?" I firmly said.

"I did not rape you!"

"Then what do you call what you just did?!" He just stares at me, not being able to answer. I shake my head as my tears starting to flow already. "You disgust me." I turn and was about to walk out already but he spoke again.

"Seulgi can't know." He said that made me face him again. "She would hate me." He has always been scared of her. 

"Maybe you should've thought of that first, before you did what you did." I said to him before I finally went out.

When I reach down the exit of the place, I hailed a cab. When I entered that's when I felt everything already. I cried.

I not only feel disgusted by myself, but also feel scared of what's going to happen next.
