the doorbell rang for the 20th time tonight. haechan groaned as he rolled off his couch to get the door. he grabbed the bowl of candy beside it and prepared a smile.

"hi kids!" he spoke with the happiest voice he could manage as he opened the door. a group of children stood in front of him with opened bags.

"trick or treat!" their high pitched voices made haechan want to rip out his eardrums and throw it in a fire pit. he smiled even wider as he clenched his teeth.

as quickly as possible he distributed the candy in all their bags before shutting the door. "why did i agree to do this?" he mumbled before throwing himself back on the couch.

this routine continued for the next hour or so until the bowl was empty. haechan cheered in silence and switched off his porch light.

the streets began emptying out, as more kids left to go home with bags full of candy. without realizing, it was already passed midnight and haechan was still binge-watching some tv show.

"fucking jerry! just marry her!" haechan yelled as he wiped his teary eyes; then the doorbell rang. he groaned before getting off the couch once again.

"who the hell is still trick or treating." the boy complained before opening the front door. it was a teenager around his age.

"sorry, i ain't got any more candy left for you." he explained in a tired voice before closing the door. but before he could, a foot stopped him.

"sorry, but i'm not here for the candy." the stranger chuckled which made haechan scared. he pushed the door harder in attempt to close it but it was no use, he was too strong.

he fell on the floor as the stranger walked inside. before haechan had time to react, they pulled him by the leg and straddled him.

"trick or treat." the boy smiled before giving a hard punch to the other's face. haechan's vision blurred and then he blacked out.
