I WILL TAKE YOU HOME

{8}

Eun Hee ran out of the place, looking around but not recognizing the exit. Ni-ki chased after her, but she kept running.

"Eun Hee! Stop right there!"

She didn't stop, running as fast as she could. Luckily, she wasn't wearing heels and had comfortable clothes on, helping her run quickly to avoid Ni-ki.

"Moon Eun Hee!! I said stop!"

As she ran, she tripped over something and fell. Looking back, she saw Ni-ki getting closer. Just as she tried to stand up, Ni-ki grabbed her arm to stop her.

"Let me go!"

"Hey, what's wrong with you? You think I'm going to hurt you?"

"I've heard enough! You don't need to explain anything! I wanna leave! But not to your house."

Eun Hee forcefully pushed Ni-ki's hand and tried to run again, but Ni-ki hugged her tightly, stopping her from escaping.

"What you saw isn't what you think! I do my job, you can't just judge me as a bad guy that easily!"

Eun Hee tried to pushed Ni-ki, but he didn't move an inch. He whispered in her ear.

"You need to understand, I only become a bad guy when someone touches what's mine."

Eun Hee pushed him away with all her strength, breaking free from the hug, and slapped Ni-ki hard on the face.

"You think I'll believe your words? I know you've been using me like a toy! I'm not stupid!"

"I'm trying to save you, but this is what I get? You're calling me a bad guy just because I'm protecting what's mine? Don't judge me so easily, Moon Eun Hee..."

Ni-ki slowly stepped closer to Eun Hee.

"And I don't understand... why are you even here? What's your intention?"

Eun Hee pushed Ni-ki away, avoiding his question.

"You're hiding something from me, aren't you? Why can't you just answer my question?"

"I'm not in the mood to talk to someone like you right now. Just go and let me be. Forget all the promises we made. I'd rather suffer with my family than suffer with you. Who knows what else I'll face if I stay with you. Don't come looking for me."

Eun Hee ran out of the place and quickly stopped a taxi. Ni-ki sighed, frustrated with her stubbornness, but he still chased after her in his car.

"She's so damn stubborn!"

Eun Hee told the taxi driver to leave the place quickly, hoping Ni-ki wouldn't be able to track her. Without she realize, Ni-ki was already following the taxi that she get on.
