Haeri spent days in the cell, just sitting about, daydreaming.

Sometimes Agust would come and ask her a few random questions.

Like today.

"What did you do? You were dressed like an office worker before i brought you here."

"I was an intern at a law firm actually. Until that day, i was fired because a girl who had better qualifications than me got the job." Haeri answered.

"So, you know a lot about laws." He said, to Haeri's surprise.

"Yeah, i guess you could say that. Like how you know a lot about music."

"Would you turn me in one day if you ever left this place?" He asked another surprising question.

Would she?

"I don't think so. I don't really care about laws and shit anymore. For all i know this world is gonna be unfair, there's no point in doing anything." She replied, nonchalantly.

Agust nodded as if deep in thought.

"Can i ask you something?" She asked.

He nodded.

"Did you go through plastic surgery?"

"What?"

"I mean, you're good looking. Like, really good looking."

Agust smiled. It was cute, like a gummy smile.

"Thanks for the compliment. And no, I've never gotten any of these features fixed."

Yoongi's smile grew as he walked upstairs to his room.

No one called him "good looking" before. Not even his parents.

He lay on his bed, which was a twin bed in fact, and rolled around happily.

♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧

Haeri picked up a pencil and doodled on papers which Agust gave her in case she felt too bored.

To be honest, she wasn't even sure why Agust kidnapped -- took her here.

Mindlessly she began to draw his face, from his dark eyes to his long bangs which usually covered his face and to his pinkish lips.

She was a skilful artist, she was used to drawing faces while she was in the crime unit. At least for a few weeks.

The more she drew the wider her smile grew. She colored boldly, defining his features even more.

She was so into drawing that she didn't realise Agust leaning cooly against the bars that kept them apart, smirking as he saw how enthusiastic she was while drawing.

"Ah..." she sighed as she added the final touches to her portrait.

She left her signature at the bottom and wrote down "Mr Black".

"Mr Black?" Agust said unconsciously, confused at the nickname.

Flustered, Haeri covered the portrait with her hands and body, though her small frame was barely enough to cover the drawing paper.

"Don't call me that." He said sadly. "It sounds so distant."

"Are we close then?"

"We should be."

♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧♤♧

Yoongi admired the portrait that Haeri drew and hung it on the wall.

"Why didn't you become an artist? You draw really well."

Haeri smiled sadly. "My parents thought it was a stupid dream. I didn't have much money to buy art supplies anyway."

"Your parents. I see." He said, while taking out two eggs from the fridge.

"Why haven't they lodged a missing persons report for you yet? You've been gone for almost a week now."

"I don't have parents anymore." She said.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't know they passed --" Yoongi started apologising.

"No don't be. They're alive and well. They disowned me about two years ago."

"Oh."

Awkward silence crept through the walls, until Yoongi cracked an egg into a bowl.

"So uh, i was wondering." He paused to grab a fork, "why are you so cool about this? I mean, you don't mind me keeping you down here?"

Haeri stopped picking at her nails and looked at Yoongi.

"I don't mind," she said while choking a little, "at least someone gives me food and a home."

When Yoongi stared at her, she continued with an awkward laugh, "Free food! Who would turn that down..."

"Anyway, since we're on the topic, why did you even bring me here? You're not torturing me, or trying to rape me?" She continued.

"Is that what you expect all kidnappers to do?" Yoongi said while frying the first egg.

"No, i just, i don't understand."

"Some things don't need to be understood."

Yoongi plopped the eggs onto plates and sprinkled some salt on top.

He left the plates on the table and went to unlock the cell door.

He unlocked the chains on Haeri's feet and hands as well.

"I don't need to go to the bathroom right now..."

"From today onwards, you can come and go as you please." He said, expressionless.

"Are you asking me to leave? After i said i just wanted free food?" Haeri asked, appalled.

"No, i'm asking you to stay at your own will."
