Torment and Torture

XXII

>>From Yoonbum's P.O.V<<

I can't believe I'm free. I'm actually free from him.

I didn't expect it to be so easy, the way he looked the moment before I left was the most desperate I had ever seen him. He was on the floor, beneath me. Maybe that's how he saw me all the time while I was trapped as his prisoner there.

Maybe I was just being stupid. It was an obsessive crush, it got so bad that I actually broke into his house. It's my fault. It's my fault for everything that happened.

Maybe I should go back....maybe I deserve what's coming to me. It was my fault for all the pain I went through. I must have put Sangwoo through some pain too. After all, I left him on the floor tied up and crying.

Part of me wants to go back, back to the torture of his ways, back to the ropes and endless torment. But the other part of me wants to remain free and wants to see places I never even dreamed existed.

I ended up walking around aimlessly around the streets by Sangwoo's home, just trying to find someone that could help me. I eventually crossed paths with a tall man wearing a hat and glasses.

"E-excuse me....could you tell me how to get into town?"

"Hm? Oh! Certainly. I'll take you there if you want?"

"Uhm...."

I was hesitant at first, I didn't think it wise to accept help from a stranger. But, I was desperate to get as far away from Sangwoo as possible. So I nodded and followed the stranger.

After about twenty minutes of walking we stopped at a familiar doorstep. And then I realised.

"Thought you could get away from me...huh?"

But by then it was too late.
