It was a daily routine for Taehyung now. After being locked up in the beautifully expensive room, he memorized what it looked like every time he closed his eyes.

Taehyung would always sleep past breakfast time and when he woke up, there would be a silver platter waiting for him. It would be a different breakfast every day, but it would always be cold.

Once he was awake for breakfast, Diamond would come in to uncuff him to let him eat for an hour before coming back to re-cuff him. She would return at noon to bring him lunch and uncuff him, returning after another hour.

Dinner worked a little bit more differently. Diamond would bring his dinner, uncuff him, but she wouldn't return after an hour. Lazuli would be the one to re-cuff him after dinner.

Lazuli always made small talk with him. She usually teased him and such. Taehyung always had a question to ask and she would always answer unless it was about her.

"Is Lazuli your real name?"

"No."

"Is Nika your real name?"

"No."

"What's your real name?"

"I don't have one," she simply replied.

"Who doesn't have a real name?" he asked. "Everyone has a name."

"I don't. Why do you care anyway?" Lazuli asked, cuffing him back onto the bed.

Taehyung flushed. "I just... I thought I should get to know you."

Lazuli had an indescribable look on her face. She was confused and shocked that someone she kidnapped would actually try to get to know her.

"You don't need to do that. You shouldn't get to know someone like me. I'd just be a waste of your time," she said, leaving the room with an empty click.

Taehyung sighed. "This is why I can't get a girl," he muttered.
