Bittersweet Marriage Life

34 - To The Rescue (1)

"Nicole?"

"Yes, it's me." Nicole replied and smirked. "How are you during my absence in your life?"
"What do you want?" Eunji asked, trying to calm herself even though she felt scared.
"Your life!"

"Eunji is what?" Jonghyun exclaimed as soon as he heard what Key has said.
"She's kidnapped. I tried to chase that van, but.." He let out a sigh.
"Do you remember the van's plate number?" Jonghyun asked. Key thought of it for a couple second before answering.
"XX-5864" Jonghyun typed it into his computer. Well, he's the detective anyway. Then he called his colleagues.
"Guys! Find where is the car with the plate XX-5864 and contact to me back as soon as possible." He talked on his walkie talkie before receiving several 'yes'. He mumbled a thank before bid goodbye. "Don't worry! She'll be okay." He tried to assure his friend who was pacing back and forth.
"How can you ask me not to worry?" He suddenly got mad.
"Listen here, Key. I understand that you are worry. But you have to wait for my colleagues. They are finding where is she right now. Calm down, Key! I know you are impatient, but try to calm yourself." Suddenly, the door opened, revealing Yunho and Changmin.
"Where is my sister? Where's Eunji?" Yunho grabbed his collar. Changmin was shocked as tried to calm his hyung down. Yunho's always quiet, but he's really scary when he's angry. Yunho was always the one who calm him down, but now the big hyung was exploded like a volcano. "I told you, right? I told you on your marriage day, right? That I'll kill you if anything happen to my sister. I let it pass several time, but I won't right now."
"I'm sorry!" That's all Key can say.
"Hyung! Calm down!" Changmin pulled Yunho while Jonghyun pulled back Key.
"How do you expect me to calm down? How, Changmin?" He exploded. "Our sister is kidnapped. Our only sister is kidnapped." He broke down.
"You aren't the only one who worried, hyung! Key's also worried. I'm also worried. Not to mention Kim emonim, Siwan and everyone else. Everyone is worried about her. EVERYONE!" He yelled. Yunho fell to the chair nearby and buried his face in his palms.
"Let him be!" Changmin mouthed to Jonghyun who was about to comfort his brother.
Suddenly, Key's phone rang and it read 'Wifey'.
"It's Eunji!" He exclaimed and that's call everyone's attention. "Eunji! Where are you now?"
(Kibum..) He heard Eunji's voice. He could felt that her tone was filled with fear.
"Where are you now?"
(Do not come....)
"Eunji!"
(Hello, Mr Kim?) He heard a familiar voice cut off. He narrowed his eyes, trying to figure out whose voice is it. (Come to XXX. Remember to come alone or else say goodbye to your lovely wife.) Then hung up.
"What did she say?"
"It's not Eunji's voice." He uttered. Then he widen his eyes as soon as he realized whose voice. "It's..."
"It's what?"
"It's Nicole's voice."
"What?"

"Your husband will come and then you two can die together." Nicole said after she hung up.
"Nicole! Stop this nonsense!" Eunji uttered and recieved a hard slap on her right cheek.
"It's not nonsense, Jung Eunji! It's for what you and your husband have done to me." She slapped on her again. "If you don't exist, he's already mine. Because of you!" She yelled.
"Ni..."
"Shut up!" She slapped Eunji again. "Whatever I can't get, you can't get it also. Just remember it!" She took out a knife from her coat pocket. "But before he comes..." She slashed the knife on Eunji's left arm.
"Ouch!" She yelped in pain. "Stop it!"
"It's not the end." She slashed again on Eunji's right arm. 
"S...s...stop it! I'm begging you!" She stuttered and started to cry. Blood started to flow endlesly.

Key reached an old factory in the suburb where Nicole agree to meet. He kicked open the door and saw no one. He continued searching the whole place. Then he found a small room in the very inside of the factory. He kicked it open.
"Eunji!" He ran toward her and untied her hands. She slowly opened her eyes.
"Kibum!" She whispered. Unknowingly, he touched on her wound. "Ouch!"
"Are you okay? I'm sorry!" He said and help her to get up. "Let's go!" They walked toward the door.

"It's not that easy, oppa!"
