Soobin and Lia has been dating for about a month now and has now moved in together. It may be too fast but to them, it's okay. They have loved each other for almost 3 years anyway! They haven't got any disturbance or anything. However, Lia felt really uneasy. She has a bad feeling something will happen. In the park where he confessed to her, Lia felt as if she was being watched.

She had shrugged of the feeling for over a month now. But today, it's getting stronger than ever. Lia went to the living room where Soobin was sitting and plopped down next to him, "Binnie?" She called out at the male who was reading a book.

Soobin hummed in response so Lia continued, "I think we need to hide. I feel like someone is watching us.." she whispered only audible for Soobin to hear.

"What makes you think that?" Soobin whispered back. "I have a gut feeling... I think someone is watching us right now as we talk.." she said.

"What do you want me to do about it?" Soobin asked, now getting concerned also. "Let's runaway." Lia suggests. Soobin nodded but then frowned after, "Where?" He asked. "I know a hidden cabin. My grandfather got me it secretly before he passed. He was the only family that ever loved me. I went there constantly as a child. But no one ever notices. I go there to get away from my family." Lia whispered as she explained.

Soobin nodded understandingly, "I get what you mean. Let's go tomorrow." He said. Lia nodded in agreement before reaching over to the small cafe table to get the remote and turned on the tv.

The first channel that appears in the tv is the news. And that news made Lia's soul fly out her body. She could only stare at it in complete shock.

"Choi industries owners Mr and Mrs Choi has just arrived in Incheon airport. The two came back to Seoul to find their daughter, Choi Jisu. They have been told that their daughter is in Seoul and came immediately. Our reporter is in the airport right now. Here is what Mrs Choi has to say." The news anchor stated.

Then, Lia's mother's face came out on the screen. The lady was wearing a designer bag, as well as a leather jacket and expensive sunglasses.

"What do you feel about your daughter running away, ma'am?" The reporter asked her.

"Oh, terrible! I'm so worried for her. I didn't know what I did wrong~ i love her dearly... i wish she will come back." Mrs. Choi said.

Lia scoffed, yeah right. "Love my ass." She grumbled. The tv also caught Soobin's attention. "Fuck tomorrow." He whispered. "Let's go now." He said sternly.

Lia nodded and the two decided to put on an act so that if they are being watched, whoever they are will not know they're running away, "Soobinnie~ let's go to the supermarket!" Lia acted. Soobin nodded, "Oh okay, let's go!"

The two grabbed a backpack each, then they stuff in necessities into it. Then swiftly, they went in the car and drove off.

"Where to?" Soobin asked.

"We need to go to Yeji's place first." Lia said sternly. "What? why?" Soobin asked. They are in a critical situation and theres no time to meet Yeji in this time. "Soobin. Do as i say." Lia said sternly. Soobin sighed and nodded before maneuvering the car to Yeji and Yeonjun's direction.

Banging on the door harshly Lia cursed under her breath, asking Yeji to fucking open the door. Not long after, the door was unlocked and out came Yeji. "Geez! What do you want?" She asked annoyed.

"No time to explain. Me and Soobin has to go. Don't look for us, understand? Tell everyone!!" Lia exclaimed.

Yeji tilted her head in confusion, "What? Why? Slow down tiger!!"

"Listen, I'll text you everyday with a new number. don't act suspicious. Don't call me Lia or Jisu, and Make it a very normal conversation because they can hack into the systems and find me." Lia said and handed Yeji a series of number- her new number. Jihye's number.

"Oh and, this is Soobin's new number. If you text him, don't use his real name. We can't risk it.." Lia said as she handed another piece of folded paper to Yeji.

"What? I don't get it! Who's they?" Yeji asked confusedly.

"Them, yeji.. they're here.." lia whispered.

"WHAT!?" Yeji exclaimed. "That's why. Please cooperate with me and tell this to the others." Lia said. "If I don't text you for a whole day, means something happened to me," Lia said. "Contact this person if something happened to me. You can trust her." Lia continued, handing Yeji Seulgi's business card.

With that, she ran. She ran to the car where Soobin was waiting for her. Not even giving Yeji enough time to respond or react. The two drove off into the woods. Lia directed Soobin and the two got to the cabin not long after.

"Settle in, make yourself at home. We don't know how long we will have to stay here.." Lia told her boyfriend as she pushed the cabin door open.

The cabin was very cozy. There was a medium sized fireplace and couches surrounding it. There was a dining table and kitchen on the side of the house, as well as 2 doors- one leading to the bathroom, and the other to the bedroom.

"It's not much, but it'll do." Lia sighed. Soobin smiled and pecked Lia's lips, "It's fine. As long as you're safe."

Lia knew this day would come. After all she had a gut feeling since a month ago. That is why she bought and brought a lot of necessities to put inside the cabin prior to that day. Of couse, she couldn't forget a large supply of food ingredients and some of her and Soobin's clothes.

"We must stay here and never leave at all cost. If any of us go out and we're caught, we are done for." Lia said. Soobin nodded understandingly. "Here, this is your new phone. DO NOT open your old phone at all costs. They know it's you. Your identity must be hidden." Lia said, handing Soobin a box with his new phone in it.

"Where did you get all this money?" Soobin asked. "I'm Choi Julia." Lia winked.
