Cold , exhausted and unable to move , Yoonbum lay on the greasy floor of a basement he was not too familiar with. It had been a week or so since he was left there for dead with his ankles swollen from a brutal incident involving his one true love swinging a baseball bat at him , knocking him unconscious and leaving him immobile. Yes , the man he had loved for years had finally noticed him. Too bad he hadn't realised he was in love with a serial killer.
He opened his eyes only to be struck by a small ray of sunlight that had somehow found its way into the gloomy room through a slight crack in the window that was far too high for him to see through. His legs ached as he sat up and looked at the blue and red bulges on his ankles , as though someone had wanted to cripple him while he was unconscious. They had. And they succeeded. For ten minutes Yoon sat in a confused daze wondering what he was doing in a cellar ? No a basement. How had he gotten there and why were his legs shackled to the stairway?
Then it all came back. Saturday night. 9:43. He had followed someone home. Who was it ? His memory had almost given up on him when a flash of light cascading down the steps. The door upstairs had been open. Thud. Thud. Thud. Someone was making their way downstairs. Fear clutched at Yoons heart as he backed up into the wall.
"HELP ME. PLEASE"
A young man of about 28 appeared in front of him. Yoon couldn't see his face. He was wearing black shorts and a white t shirt covered in what looked like blood. The man squatted in front of him , smirking and laid down a large butchers knife also covered in blood.
"Looks like you're awake"
Oh sangwoo.
