Confinement [Completed]

31

I had never seen anyone cry as he did. As if every part of him was breaking down, he mourned like never before begging for forgiveness. The blood of our child was in his hands now not mine and he deserved it, every bit of it.

I don't know why but there was simper plastered on my face as I witnessed him suffer. It gave me a great deal of satisfaction. I was relishing in his pain.

I scoff at our fate and at how it had pushed us to become so low. Even gutter could be called chaste than us; One who killed his own child and another who was actually relieved at its death.

To be honest, he made it easier for me. I went to abort it however I couldn't do so after all, it wasn't its fault, and comprehending my situation the doctor had recommended that I should take some time to take the decision.

My mother too had suggested against abortion and even ensured me that she would support me all the way. No matter what the case was, it would still be her daughter's blood, therefore, she wanted her grandchild to be a part of this world even though it was a by-product of someone's crimes.

I was contemplating if I was a sinner for wanting to kill my own child due to fear and the backlash from society but even though I knew I couldn't give it a decent life, I wanted to give it a chance. But now, Taehyung had severed every last bit of connection we had.

"Tia, I am so sorry" He was on his knee with his finger clasped together in front of me while I numbly stared at him.

"Our baby, I thought you...my god what did I do?" his voice cracked, tears never failing to stream down his face as he covered his mouth with his hand tainted with blood not being able to come into terms with the truth that he was the one who ended his own blood.

I remained in the corner watching him burn down in his sins. I wanted him to suffer more as It was nothing in comparison to the pain he had inflicted upon me.

"I wish I could change everything but I can't," leaving the gun behind he lunged to pull me into a hug but I didn't resist maybe because I had no energy left within me.

He began to wipe the blood from my mouth however the damage was already done. He had successfully broken me from inside and from outside and even if I would somehow survive this, I would be scarred for life.

"I love you so much Tia, I went insane when you tried to kill me, you left me to die alone and then I saw you going for an abortion and I lost it." His eyes looked so innocent as he cupped my cheeks and explained his excuses to destroy my life and butcher my family.

His brown eyes bore into mine in search of any reaction but I gave him none. My eyes were dull, my expression was blank, and my heart had a big hole in it that could never be filled. Seeing how emotionless I had become, more tears rolled down the eyes I once adored.

"I know nothing can fix us now. Neither can we forgive each other nor we can forget what had occurred." and just like that, his eyes turned icy cold.

My pulse rate skyrocketed and fear began to build up again but this time stronger than before. I noticed how his orbs had shifted to being Diabolik so I let out a shuddered breath trying to calm my nerves down.

"We both need to pay for our sins"

His hands moved to attack my throat but I beat him to it and pushed him with great force then jolted up to run away from him ignoring the piercing pain in my stomach however he was faster than me.

"Tia please, we can let our child be alone" saying that he hauled me back into his confining arms and restrained my movements.

"It's ok love, remember our vows, we will go together," His whispers were like the crest of dread for me.

"NOOOOO, NOOOO" My back was squashed against his hard chest, and while I was grappling against his solid grip, he snatched the bottles of alcohol from the kitchen shelf and began to pour them all over the place.

"Stop Taehyung," Suddenly I began fearing death. I was terrified of the pain he was trying to wreak upon me. Just a moment ago I was wishing to be dead along with my family but now that death was nearing, I was striving to escape.

I took a sharp intake of breath seeing him light up the lighter and set the kitchen on fire however I was helpless against him.

"If we can live together, we die together Tia, that's what family does right? You, me our child we will all be in peace" His grasp was like a chain made up of steel that I couldn't break myself from. I fought with all my might, I was jumping like a madwoman screaming for help.

"No one can help you Tia, I killed the officer in patrol, I killed your neighbors as well" His words brought more terror within me.

How many people did he end up killing?

The blood of people who lost their lives was smeared on my hand as well since I was the one who led the monster out of its den.

"Tae, no baby listen, we can work this out we can try for another child, we can go somewhere and start a new life please" In desperation, I blurted out lies after lies but he simply shook his head holding me as the fire spread across the house.

"Baby, Please don't do this to us" with all of my strength I attempted to pull his hands off of me but to no avail. The harder I was trying the stronger his grip on me was getting.

"Let's burn down together Tia, let's welcome the death with our love" He was blabbering nonsense while the smoke was suffocating the life out of me.

The smoke billowed back across the room, filling my lungs and I began coughing instantly as the tears washed over my eyes. I was about to die. I was about to get the most painful death and I couldn't bring myself to accept it.

I didn't want to die,

I didn't want to die a horrible death.

Adrenaline streamed throughout my body and at one point I somehow partly escaped from his arms and lunged towards the kitchen counter and grabbed whatever my hand could reach.

"TIA!!" his voice boomed and swirling around I stabbed the fork in his throat.

Shrieking in pain he stumbled backward and taking this as an opportunity I leaped away from him and fell right beside the gun that was on the floor. I didn't think much as there was nothing to think about so taking the gun I fired all the remaining bullets at him.

"AHH" he screamed, when the sound of a bullet piercing his skin echoed amidst the sound of my house crumbling down.

I wasn't a professional shooter, heck it was the first time I had ever held a gun so even though most of them got misfired, I managed to land one on the right side of his chest, just below his shoulder.

With the blood pouring down from his mouth, he collapsed on the floor while the blazing fire engulfed my house scorching my skin.

Dropping the gun from my hand, I reached out to my mother and tried pulling her out as well.

"Omma" I screamed as her clothes caught the fire.

I didn't want to leave my family. How could I let them burn with their murderer?

"Fucking bitch" I heard him groan lifting his face to stare right into my eyes and he sneered.

He fucking managed to sneer at me as if this was not the end. I slowly took my steps back away from my mother's body while the chills hit my spine and managed to prickle goosebumps all over me despite the scorching heat.

"Even death can't keep me away from you, TIAA!!!!!"

His bone-chilling scream made my fragile leg move on its own and soon enough I was sprinting out of the burning house leaving behind my family, and The guy I had ever loved to be turned into a speck of dust.
