My mom and Lucas would bring me meals occasionally and would lock the door right after. I never touched the food. Never even gave it a second glance. What's the point of eating. What's the point of even living if I'm going to be locked up here for the rest of my life all miserable.

I couldn't help but think about Jaemin from time to time. What he's doing. How he's handling everything. Did his father hurt him.

If he's still alive.

Being the child of a gang leader is like this. Even though for my most of my life I didn't know my mom was a gang leader, I've been living this life. Caged.
I would dream of Jaemin sometimes. We would be running through fields of dandelions. But whenever I went to touch or kiss him he disappeared into thin air and I always wound up crying.

I hear the sound of my door unlocking and I don't look. Don't even move a single muscle.

"Hey kiddo" I hear Lucas' voice. I don't answer. "You doing alright?"
I stay silent for a moment and turn to look at him

"What do you think?" I say sadness in my voice.

"You should eat something. You-"

"I'm not eating. Not now, and not ever again. Whats the point of eating to stay alive when I have nothing to live for."

"Don't say that" he places his hand on my cheek and I flinch away. "You don't like me anymore. Do you?" He says and I shake my head. "I'm glad cause I didn't want to hurt you when I told you I found someone else."

"Good for you" I say looking back to the wall with no emotion in my voice.

"Do you like him that much?" He asks I turn back around and nod. He sighs at me. "Fine. I'll help you get out of here. Go to him, run away again, far far away until nobody can ever find you" he looks at me. I smile and jump up to hug him.

"Thank you so much."

"I'll help you.... After you eat something" he smiles and I oblige eating the food he brought for me.

I get to see him again....... If he's still alive.
