He finally found Sejun on twitter but he couldn't send him a DM unless he follows him back. Which is unlikely to happen because after what happened, Justin couldn't put his real name in social media anymore.
He's just glad that he's alive and well and even graduated. He felt relieved, but he still dreams of him on random nights. Justin knows he had to see Sejun.
Justin was walking down the elegant staircase in their mansion when Alejandro saw him.
"Where are you going Justin?" His Dad asked him. He is surrounded by some staff and bodyguards, but Justin did not see Emma around which is unusual.
"Dad, mag eenroll ako for 4th year"
"No, you'll be home schooled until you graduate"
Justin stopped in his track.
"Dad please may bodyguards naman na ako"
"You were almost killed Justin, I don't think you can just walk around school without a threat in your life."
"Dad please, what about internship? I can't just do it at home"
"We can always make some arrangements son"
Justin was about to say something but his Dad just went his way to the car. He tried to step outside but the guards stopped him.
"Sir Justin, hindi daw po kayong pwedeng umalis"
"Kuya please"
"Pasensya na po sir, sundin nyo na lang po Daddy nyo."
He went back to his room feeling disappointed and devastated. Ever since the incident happened he was not allowed to go out, unless he needed to buy something or a visit to his psychiatrist.
He looked at the four corners of the room, it suddenly looked darker and smaller. The huge space becomes suffocating, swallowing him alive. He could feel his heart beating faster, making it harder to breathe. He took a pill from the bottle on the side table and quickly swallowed it. He swallowed another when one seems not enough.
If only he could jump out of the window without hurting himself. If only there's someone he could talk to, someone who could take him somewhere, out of this dungeon.
"Sejun" Justin called his name as if he's just somewhere within the room. He lied on his bed when he feels weak. "Where are you Sej?" He whispered. Now he couldn't deny it, he misses Sejun.
