The Prisoner

"Please! Give us more time! I swear we'll pay you back!"

Mrs Park begged as the men in her house continued to trash it, breaking plates and messing up the shelves. The man standing beside her chuckled and raised his hand, telling them to stop. He faced Mrs Park and grinned.

"More time? How long more? I want my money back." He growled.

She trembled and her legs almost failed her, making her stumble away. The man reached in his pocket and took out a knife, making her whimper in fear. He looked at her stomach, seeing a slight bump, realisation dawned on him. His victim was pregnant.

"How about this. I know that you're pregnant with a cute little baby. If you don't pay me back before you give birth, the baby becomes mine."

The man offered, putting the tip of the knife at her chin. Mrs Park had fear in her eyes and the man could see it. He was just trying to make her break down, but she didn't, making him impatient.

"Or..."

"I can take both of you away right now..."

He placed the knife on her chest, pressing it down against her lightly. She shook her head vigorously as tears streamed down her face.

"D-Deal."

Nine months later...

"What are we going to do? We haven't paid them back and I gave birth to Jimin already."

Mrs Park sobbed to her husband, he furrowed his brows and tried to think of a solution. He grabbed the baby out of his bed and carried it to the car.

"W-Where are you going?"

"Do you still remember where your sister lives?"

Her eyes widened and she reluctantly nodded her head. Taking out her phone, she dialled her sister's number and asked her if she could come over with her family. Her sister warned her that the ride to her home was dangerous, and there was going to be a heavy storm later on, but Mrs Park was too desperate to care about her safety.

The only place that they could go to was her sister's house, since she lived in an abandoned mansion. Nobody even knew that her sister was alive. She was a scientist who had created a weapon deadly enough to kill an entire country, making her the most wanted person amongst terrorists.

In the end, she had to fake her own death and hide the weapon so that it wouldn't get into the wrong hands. She hid herself in an abandoned house and seldom went out. Only her twin sister knew about the house and that she was still alive.

Mr Park stepped on the gas pedal and sped through the neighbourhood. He drove as fast as he could to reach the house. Mrs Park was cuddling her child, tears flowed out as she knew that this would most likely be the last time she would see Jimin, her one and only son.

The car screeched to a halt as Mrs Park's twin sister, Jung Hee Yeon, came rushing out of the door. She helped to carry Jimin into the house, with his parents trailing behind. Once they were inside the house, the couple explained everything to Hee Yeon.

"I told you not to borrow money from them! How are you going to pay them back now? You've made Jimin become in danger too!" Hee Yeon growled.
