I Won't Hurt You

10. Keys.

He left the room after sitting for a while. As soon as he left, I got up. Who is 'her'? I couldn't bare the feeling of not knowing his past. He said to me that I was his first love, did he lie to me. So far I've seen so much that him lying seems so minor.

I went back to bed again. What could I have possibly done? I can't go out, that killer is out there. I can't even fall asleep after hearing about this HER. Curiosity was killing me but I had no choice. I just laid there staring at the ceiling, wondering about how to get to his past.

I laid in my bed the whole day, I was too tired to get up anyways. Jin did came in with food and medicine time to time but I acted as if I was asleep. He didn't disturb me too.

*The next day*

My eyes opened but to my surprise no sun light hit my face this time. It was 3:00 in the morning. I never woke up this early in my whole life. May be I can use this to my benefit. 'HMMMMM' I hummed and a smirk appeared on my face. It's time to put my detective glasses on.

I crept to the door, twisted the door knob, it was not locked. I peaked outside the door, the hall was dark and deserted. I walked towards Jin's room, I slowly opened the door. It was empty, he wasn't there. Where could he have gone at this hour?

I quickly started opening drawers and wardrobes, searching thoroughly for just anything regarding he's past or Her. But sadly I found nothing, nothing at all. There was not even a single family photo anywhere. I sighed. I was disheartened.

Suddenly I heard footsteps. He's here and he's gonna come here! I panicked. I quickly hid at the back of the coach. My heart was beating super fast. Oh shit I didn't close the door. Will he notice?!

He staggered in, he seemed tipsy. A bundle of key was rolling around his finger but it quickly slide off and fell right next to the coach. OH SHIT! He was coming this way. Oh no! What should I do?! If he sees me he's definitely gonna kill me. He's a freaking psycho, no wonder what he'll when he's drunk.

Footsteps, coming closer and closer. I was almost at the verge of getting a heart attack. Oh God please save me. And suddenly heard a blob and the coach moved a bit. Jin fell unconscious on the coach. He's so wasted. I quickly grabbed the keys laying on the floor and crept out of the room. Thank God! I was safe but not for long.

This key seemed like a door key, a door of this house. But there are also a small key. Maybe it will unlock something like a small drawer. But where is this room? I didn't find any door which was locked. However, I didn't search up there, in the third floor. I quickly ran to the stair case, the stairs to the next floor was sinister and evil, witness to many horrific scenes. The stairs were broken at places, huge spider webs, stains everywhere. So terrifying.

I gathered all my courage and took the first step, the sound was loud. I took a deep breath and continued climbing the stairs until I reach my destination. And there it was, the door.

I went towards the door with trembling feet. I inserted the key in. Although I wanted to know the truth really bad but that place was horrifying. I wouldn't mind if the door did not open. I'll just leave like a happy bunny.

'Click' the door unlocked. I twisted the door knob, I opened it slowly. To my disbelief, it revealed something unutterable.

A room full of scratched walls with dried blood imprinted on the floor, as if someone was tortured in there. Broken vase with rotten flowers. Spider webs between the legs of the chair. Dust coated table with a small drawer. I went inside. The smell of death and violence was pungent. I quickly walked to the table. The handle of the drawer had fresh finger prints on them. I unlocked it and pulled the cold metal exposing his past.

It had pictures. Pictures of a man and a woman holding a baby boy. It was him. He looked so cute with his parents. I felt so bad after looking at it. He must have felt so lonely after his parents death. I guess that's why he acts like this. A tear escaped my eye and I accidentally drop the pictures and it fell into the trash right beside the table. I bent down to pick it up but something caught my eye.

There was a picture of a boy but it was stained with what seemed like rotten blood. I was about it lift it but that when I realized, there was something on it. An old, rusty, bloody dagger.

I held it with an cloth lying on the floor and put it on the table, I quickly gathered all the photos and put it back where it was. I left the room with the dagger and went back to room. That's when I realized I still had the keys. I tiptoed towards Jin's room. Thankfully he was still asleep. I placed the key right where it was on the floor and ran out quickly.

Back in my room, I was contemplating what to do. I called my friend Mizi, she studied dactyloscopy and works in a forensic lab. She could check the finger prints for me. The phone ringed and she did not Pick up. I called her again, still no answer.

I was devastated. What could it be? Why is there a bloody knife there. I went there to find out about 'her' but now there's this new Him in the story. I was going crazy.

I hid the dagger inside a flower vase. Soon I fell asleep on my desk.

*6.00 in the morning*

I felt a light weight on my head. It was his hand. I quickly lifted my head. He had a light smile on his face. He said, 'What were you doing last night?'
My face became pale, my heart pounded fast and I lost my breath.
