Devil's Trap [ Mitzu ]

Chapter 2: No Escape

Mina's POV

I went through a fast food chain first before heading in our apartment. We're both leaving there since we were sophomores. We both study Fine Arts at Saint's Bernard University. Honestly if it wasn't for her I would probably leaving in the maintenance quarter of the University.

I turn my gazed at the food I'd take out. Maybe because of hunger that's why I felt dizzy earlier at the Library. I closed my eyes to erase the floating feeling in my head. I fasten my walking pace in the street of our village.

As soon as I entered the apartment, I immediately realized that nothing had changed since I leaved it almost two days ago. There was still the jag of juice on the kitchen table and the instant noodles I should have eaten that night.

I sat down on the small sofa in the living room and laid down the food I had brought to the table. I don't want to think that at these times, the noisy but my sweet best friend is in the Hospital.

I tried to eat even though I had no appetite. Tomorrow I have to attend school. Our block mates definitely knew what happened to Chaeyoung. Before my phone died yesterday they didn't stop calling and texting. I don't answer them. I'm not really close to them. It's just Chaeyoung. Because she is naturally friendly.

I don't even know why she became my friend. We differ in behavior and want. She's this sweet girl who's always wearing dresses, wants love song and romantic movies, kind and friendly to everyone, always smiling. As for me, I was low tempered and had no emotion that could see in my face.

Another difference of ours, she was rich. As for me, I just get into that expensive school because of a scholarship, and I had to work as a student assistant or school clerk when I don't have any classes for my allowance.

After I had eaten, I charge my phone and opened the Internet. I searched immediately. Vampires in Seoul City. Different links appeared. There's an address of a book shop, a picture of the massive mansion, social media links of the people who live there. There is a post of that word, mostly based on the book being read and else more. I rolled my eyes. Not this.

I closed my eyes again and I remembered her face. Her penetrating bloody stares, her intoxicating smile, how she licks her lips while staring into mine. I opened my eyes. Damn Mina. Eight months. Eight months past. Are you really going to repeat those events at these moment?

I took a deep breath. Fine. There's no harm on checking what she's up to. I went to Facebook and looked at her profile. Chou Tzuyu. Her face immediately came out. The familiar smirk of her. Dark, menacing, gorgeously evil. There's  almost nothing posted on her timeline just the status of women and men tagged on her.

Thanks for the great night. You're an amazing beast. Rarwr.

I almost vomited on the latest post tagged on her. Filthy woman whore. Her post has a lot of likes and comments. My forehead crease slightly when I read this.

I wanted to taste you so badly.

Many are fluttered of it. Someone even volunteered that she's free to taste. Geez, people. Again I scrolled past the women who were about to show their soul just so they can tag her. But it's so many. I annoyingly returned the screen to its latest timeline. Even just a clue. I have to prove that— My finger stop scrolling when I saw that she have new status.

Chou Tzuyu

You can hide but you can't never escape me.

I read the status time. Just now. That means he's online too. I read it again. I could almost hear her voice in my mind saying these words. Deep, velvety, husky.
