Airport [Kim Taehyung Fanfiction]

18. Shadow

"She is not picking up the call" Taehyung's nervousness was clearly visible. He was pacing back and forth. Oindri went outside to check if the car was parked or not. Each and every call remained unanswered from you which made Taehyung to think of every worst scenerio possible. "Since when did you two became close?" Jimin had to ask that question because he could feel that Taehyung was keeping something secret from him since they landed in this country. That secret might be related to you. "I don't know, why did she leave the venue without informing any one" yeeting the phone out of his hand he answered. Thankfully the phone was caught by an unbothered Yoongi.

Suddenly the door flung open and a running Oindri appeared. "Taehyung, the car is still there at the parking area." she managed to tell that in between her panting because of all the running.

"She might have taken a cab, and her phone is on silent, I think she went home" everyone turned their focus on Namjoon. "Sometimes, very rarely, your 148 iq works" Yoongi kind of mocked him.

Something felt wrong as Taehyung tried to connect the dots. No, he was not convinced by Namjoon's provided fact. He was still pacing back and forth when suddenly a small piece of fabric attracted his eyes. Bending down he picked up a scrunchie from the edge of the bed where currently Hoseok was seated. "What's this?" He asked.

"Oh that's my scrunchie, I gave that to the girl when she was here during her x-ray" a nurse came in and took it from his hand "I think she left it here before leaving. I saw her outside, I think she was in some kind of rush, because she was walking really fast, I tried to call her, but she got into a cab."

All eyes fell on that nurse, each words coming out of her mouth was making Taehyung more nervous. Up untill then he tried to convince himself that you went home but no, that was surely not the case. Why would you rush and walk fast with a broken leg? Maybe you went home but something must have happened so that you were rushing to get out of here.

"Do you know which direction the cab went?" Jin asked, very calmly. "Why would you ask that? I saw the cab turning left, taking the other road than the highway." This answer made Oindri's spine to shiver.

"What?" She managed to voice out the only word. After a pause and a gasp of realisation she spoke again "but the highway is the only way to Autumn Apartments, our home, what made her go to the other way."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A cold breeze made you wake up from your sleep. Your eye leads felt heavy to open. A headache was making it more difficult to open your eyes. You placed your right hand fingers on your forehead, slightly pinching the skin hoping to feel better. You tried to adjust in your position when you felt a slight pain, simultaneously a numbness in your left arm. A sudden realisation made your eyes wide open.

It was not a cab, you were not sitting on a leather covered seat, and no driver was present infront of your eye sight. You frantically moved your head to get a hang of the place where you were at. No, nothing was clearly visible.

It was a room, dark room to be specific, only a ray of light was coming from above of the door through a dirty net. You were placed against a wall, your left arm cuffed with a chain dangling from the wall.

Your walking stick was laying on the floor right opposite of you. And your bag was no where to be seen. You tried to wrench the chain few times hoping for it to break but only it strained your arm more.

You felt a tight knot in your stomach, clearly panicked about the situation. You got up from the floor which was filled with dirt and scattered with some cardboard boxes here and there. You moved forward as much as the chain allowed you. There was still about several feet distance between you and the door. You tried to move further but the cuffed hand pained more as you tried to do so. Also, your ankle was totally not supporting you.

You were too scared to utter out any words or to call for help. Clearly there was no one to help you out. You fell down to the floor, with a thud sound.

The door flung open making a silhouette appear infront of your eyes. You squeezed your eyes shut at the sudden contact with bright rays of light coming from outside.

"You are awake, babe" a muffled yet dark voice called out. "Atlast you are with me now" the shadow came near you and bend down in front of you.

"Who are you, and don't fucking dare to touch me" your voice sounded hoarse. A chuckle escaped from the unknown person "Feisty, huh..I like that about you, infact I love that about you. Don't worry I will take care of you from now on." The person got up. Because of the lighting contrast you couldn't figure out his face. His voice sounded muffled probably because of the black scarf tied in his face.

"Babe, I will come later with your favourite ice cream and then we will talk about our future. Okay?" You could feel that he was smirking.

Again the room got filled with darkness after he left the room closing the door.

Another day, another worst nightmare was becoming real infront of your eyes. You felt like screaming, crying, throwing a fit in that empty dark room but your body started to give up slowly. Your brain was also tired after trying to recall the incidents that happened right after you got into the cab.

"Who the hell is this shadow?" That was all you managed to get out from your mouth before you ended up going to a deep slumber again because of all the exhaustion.
