II

ah..

i slowly open my eyes, everything was a blur. i whence in pain as my head was pounding senselessly. it takes me awhile to gain focus but once i do i realize i'm in a dark room.

where am i?

i force myself to stand up although my body was aching severely. as i try to walk around i feel a tight tug on my ankles and fall straight down.

"ow shit!" i yell in pain and look back to my ankles that were shackled up. i immediately start to freak out a bit.

"what the fuck happened- why am i here.."

i reach my hand out and brim the edge of shackles on my feet. it was extremely hard to see.. i couldn't see anything at all.

i start to crawl around- as far as i can. reaching my arm out to grab anything i can..

nothing

ugh

wait i feel something!

i felt something quite big and pretty heavy.. i try to grab onto it but it doesn't budge.

i keep tugging at whatever it was though with all my efforts.

"haha.. your efforts are incredible.."

my heart drops at the voice in the room. my hand immediately freezes as the thing i was grabbing onto starts to move.
my hand starts to get crushed under a pressure and slowly the pain grows bigger and bigger.
that's when i realize what i was grabbing on..
a foot

i try pulling my hand away in pain but it's trapped under his heavy boots.
my eyes start to swell up with tears due to the pain from my left hand.
"stop!" i yell desperately but a small chuckle comes out and they decide to keep pressing harder.

whoever it was, they seemed to find enjoyment in this.

"okay i'll tell you what"

i hear the person squat down to my level- still to dark to make out the face.

his hand grabs onto my face tightly.

"just do what i say, and i'll let you go."

he says seriously.

"w-what do you need from me?" i say cautiously.

"you'll find that out later" he says pushing my face back. "i'll be back.. don't try anything" he says and a couple seconds i hear the door close.

what the hell happened

i close my eyes trying my hardest to remember the events leading up to this.

i was meeting lucas.. everything was going good.. i started to get really tired and he drove me home.

wait- did he drive me home?

no way he would've done anything like this.

right ?

wrong.

i take a few moments to think and all i remember was getting in the car and passing out..

perfect opportunity to get kidnapped, great thinking hyejin.

it doesn't take me long to put everything together.

i start to panic not knowing where i was or if i'd ever leave.

what if i'd never see my friends or family again..
would they even care?

i shake my head and i push away all negative thoughts. only one thing to focus on..

escaping.
