OMNISCIENT POV

Days passed away painstakingly slow according to Zhan.

But he wasn't as bored as he was at the beginning since Yibo started to teach him horse riding and he also read him his favorite books. But he still wanted to escape because he didn't want to spend his entire life with Yibo's obsessive personality and he also wanted to meet his mother.

"Baby you wanna go for hunting?" Yibo asked to Zhan, standing in the doorway, smiling fondly at him.

Zhan's drained eyes were fixed at the falling snowflakes outside of the window pane as an evil idea popped into his mind.

"I don't know how to fire a gun." Zhan said hesitantly, still looking outside with fake sad pout.

"I will teach you. Come." Yibo said softly walking towards Zhan.

"Really?" Zhan said fake excitement.

"Yes." Yibo said and gave a quick peck on Zhan's lip, smiling afterwards.

"Let's g-go then." Zhan said hiding his blushing face.

After a week Zhan had learnt firing gunshots.

It was just another normal day but something about the atmosphere seemed eerie, was it the silence? Or was it the Zhan's intention.

"Baby, you ready for hunting?" Yibo said to Zhan who was busy wearing his hunting boots.

"Yeah. I am." Zhan said with an enthusiasm in his voice.

"Let's go then." Yibo said walking outside towards stable with rifle on his hand while Zhan followed him from behind.

"I wanna see you play hunting today." Yibo said giving rifle and ammo belt to Zhan and jumping on the horse's back afterwards.

Zhan gave him a nod and wore his ammo belt and rifle. When he was done he also got settled on his horse.

They both rode their horses and after half an hour when they reached the mid forest Yibo looked around through his binoculars.

"Hey there's a wild boar." Yibo said pointing at afar tree sight.

"I don't think we'll be able to get it." Zhan said with fake estimation.

"We can but we gotta walk toward it." Yibo said jumping off of  the horse back. Zhan smirked and jumped off too.

Yibo started walking towards the dense wood but soon felt cold metal against his head.

He quickly turned around but he pretty much had guessed it already.

Zhan was standing there aiming the rifle at him.

"Baby?" Yibo said softly without any trace of fear in his voice.

"No-no you can't do this." Zhan said with cracked voice, trembling furiously while backing away from him. He didn't know if he was shivering because of cold or from the fact that he was going to kill Yibo.

Seeing Yibo's smile he got more terrified and he fired the bullet at Yibo's stomach, which made Yibo yelped in pain and stumbled backwards. The white snow was now turned into red.

Yibo grabbed his stomach and backed away.

"I-if I'm go-going to....die w-why not pl-play a litt-little..." Yibo said between his erratic breathes, clutching his stomach tightly.

"W-what game?" Zhan asked cautiously still not believing that he just shot Yibo.

"L-look be-behind." Yibo said pointing behind Zhan with his eyes.

Zhan frowned his eyebrows confused and looked behind to see if there was someone standing but there was no one.

"Lo-" Zhan eyes grew bigger when Yibo was gone. He looked here and there but he was alone, but he could see the traces of snow covered in Yibo's blood.

He followed the blood covered snow and soon he found Yibo sitting behind a tree.

"Yo-you fo-found me." Yibo said with a soft smile.

"W-what do you wa-want? huh!" Zhan said with tears rolling down his eyes, hands aiming the rifle at Yibo.

"W-what is mo-more deadly a g-gun or a thought?" Yibo said with pained tone but lips were still having a soft smile.

Zhan stayed silent as his voice got stuck.

"A gun...gives y-you the op-opportunity but.....but a th-thought pulls the t-trigger. I'm g-glad...I brought mo-monster o-out of y-your hidden re-reality. Now....you're a.....mo-monster just like m-me." Yibo said and started laughing. His laughs echoed in the whole forest and in Zhan's mind too.

"No! I ain't a monster!!!" Zhan screamed panicked.

"Y-yes, you're....j-just as m-me." Yibo said with a smile making Zhan more terrified.

"No I'm not, I'm not!!"

And

bang!!!

Zhan slowly opened his eyes...

Everything was same, nothing changed...the same green curtains, the same four walls, the same sound of ocean waves...the same nurse.

"How much I slept this time?"
