My Hand And Yours

Calm Down

Baekho was chewing his lip as they got closer to the van's position. It was slowing down and they were in a rather abandoned factory area. Now they just had to figure out where the van was being brought to. He tapped the car door nervously.

"Calm down, Baekho," Eun Jung said, reminding the other of her presence beside him.

"I am. Calm," he hissed softly as he sighed.

"You're obviously worked up right now. My brother will be fine."

"And how would you know that?"

"I don't but I need you to stop yelling at me!" Eun Jung snapped and that was when Baekho realised he had been unconsciously raising his voice at her this whole time. He shrunk in the seat.

"I'm sorry. I... I don't know what came over me."

"I will tell you what came over you. You're being oddly concerned about my brother. Do you like him?" Eun Jung asked and Baekho just stared at her with confused doe eyes. He was silent and deep in thought until the car broke into a sudden stop, causing the two youngsters to lean forward and yelping.

The minivan braked and the man on top of Minhyun almost toppled over.

"The fuck, dude? Warn me next time."

"Sorry but time to get down."

"I can't even have a bit of fun with this kid first?" His hand already placed itself against Minhyun's skin, making it crawl and cold. Minhyun bit his lower lip and contemplated moving away but the other male was having none of this bullshit right now as he leaned down and dragged Minhyun up by his armpits. His shirt fell over his body again.

"No. We gotta go before someone finds us," the male said and pulled Minhyun by his arm down from the van. Outside was another duo and they exchanged questioning glances when they saw Minhyun.

"Who is the boy?" one of them asked.

"No clue. He was in the van when we took it."

"You guys are just asking for more trouble, aren't you? Hand him over. I'll bring him to the camp. You take the van and you two take the other car," the one who Minhyun guessed was more of the leader type said while they did a switcheroo. The keys were tossed around and so was he. Just as he was being yanked to the car, a loud screeching sound startled the men into faster action. Minhyun was shoved roughly into the passenger seat before the male got on and started speeding off. The minivan drove away and so did the car with the initial duo. Minhyun sat up and tried to look out the window to see cars speeding into the factory area that he had been brought to, only to leave them in the dust again.

The minivan and car was surrounded by the guards before they got far enough. Baekho rushed down the car to find for Minhyun but there was no sign of the other even when people were getting apprehended and brought down from the van and car. He noticed the car still speeding away and it clicked. Before he could voice out his opinions, he barged into the driver's seat of the car he was previously in and drove off with Eun Jung still inside.

"Woah! Where are we going?" she asked since she hadn't got down the car yet.

"Minhyun isn't here. I think he's in the other car that got away so I'm going to chase after them."

"What?! That's crazy, Baekho! We won't get to them in time."

"I suggest you lean back and put on your seatbelt." Baekho didn't waste any time in stepping on the accelerator, causing Eun Jung to shriek in both surprise and fear as she held on for dear life. Maybe coming along was a bad idea after all.
