"Where do you think you're going?"
Gun's voice was steady, but his eyes were burning into me.
'Can't you let a poor girl who has nothing to do with this leave?!'
For a moment, my body refused to move, like prey caught in the sights of a predator. I could feel my heart race , the sound of blood rushing in my ears almost drowning out my own thoughts.
'Run. Run. Run. ' That was the only thing pounding through my mind as the seconds pass by.
I swallowed hard, forcing out a nervous laugh as I tried to keep my face calm.
"Oh, I was just... leaving, you know? No big deal. Nothing to worry about, you know..haha.." I replied , my voice sounding much braver than I felt somehow.
Slowly, I turned to face him, trying to think of a way out. "Maybe we can... talk this out? Strike a deal?"
I could feel my legs twitching, wanting to move, wanting to get as far from him as possible.
"Look, we can work something out, right?" I began, my feet already moving backward, inch by inch. "No need for... complications. I leave and you can have him."
Gun's eyes narrowed, and here i was stupidly hoping maybe humor would ease the tension.
Gun didn't say a word, just watching me with his expression unreadable. And because of that , his silence was enough to tell me I had seconds to act.
Literal seconds.
Every muscle in my body was tense, ready to flee and run away. My feet then started to move backwards.
Slowly, carefully, inching away as if he wouldn't notice.
"I mean, no need to follow me or anything.." I said, my voice a little higher than I intended , almost coming out like a squeak.
"Seriously, it's not necessary! Look here ,If you do follow me! I'll-"
But before I could finish my sentence, my body moved faster than my mind. I spun on my heel and bolted.
In a blur, I was already running for my life.
And I didn't look back. I couldn't. I had no idea if Gun was following, but I wasn't about to stick around to find out.
"AHHHH DONT FOLLOW ME IM TELLING YOU! JUST LET ME LIVE A PEACEFUL LIFEE!" I screamed in a panick.
Though , he might be busy dealing with Jake , so I guess I should be safe...
Probably.
What then felt like hours of running had only been a few minutes.
My eyes then noticed the familiar glow of the neon sign and without hesitation, I shoved the door open and went in.
Inside here sure was a sight to see. We have Jiho whos sorta drenched in rain , kouji sitting on the counter and a random stack of 300,000 in hard cold cash.
Their voices dropped when they noticed me walk in, soaked and panting.
Among them, little Daniel immediately pushed through the crowd, his face filled with concern.
The same goes for the rest as well.
"Y/n! Are you okay? Why are you drenched? What happened?" His questions came in quick , but I was still lagging to process them fully.
I shook my head, wiping away the excess rain water dripping from my forehead.
"You don't wanna know.." I muttered , still panting from the run. I didn't have the energy to explain , after running for my life?
