Yes, yes, yes..that's a key right infront of my eyes!

There was a key ring with which two rusted keys were attached. Without any hesitation you picked it up. Where did that came from?

By the shape and rusty metal of the key, you figured out that it belonged to a very old lock. Most probably the door lock. But the only problem is that you can't reach upto the door with your hand being cuffed.

So the first thing you did was to try open the lock of the chain from the wall. But you heard someone was walking towards the door. That creep was coming back. What if he take back the key with him? Then you would loose the five percent chance of getting out of the room. One thing you knew for sure was to hide the key. But in that room there was no such place where you could hide it. Eyes wide in fear, hands sweaty, you looked around the room. The steps got closer towards the door.

Ice cream!

You opened the lead of the ice cream tub and pushed the key inside as much as possible. After securing it, you started eating from the top of the area where the hole was made by the key on the ice cream surface, so that he doesn't guess that the key was in there, after looking at the ice cream tub.

The door opened. He came rushing inside with his mobile in his hand. Quickly he switched on the flash light and then you got to see his eyes from the light reflection. Hooded eyes searching for something in the floor.

Mercilessly he directes the flash light in your eyes. "You! Stop. Eating." He said with his gritted teeth. A nervous sensation made your spine stiff after hearing him. His voice now clear. You placed down the tub beside.

"Don't lie to me baby, okay? Have you seen a key here?" He kneeled down infront of you, his face very close to yours. Sweat drops were already there on your forehead because of the suffocating room temparature, but now with extra tension, sweat droplets started falling from your forehead. You quickly shook your head. "Answer me properly."

"No" as calmly as possible you answered. "Well, I trust you, anyways, that's not a important key, enjoy your ice cream baby." But this time he sat beside you leaning on the wall, facing the light from the outside. An uncovered face. Sharp unknown features yet very familiar. Why does he look so familiar?

"Do I look good? Now that you see me..do I look good?" You shifted to the another corner, maintaining distance as much as possible from the creep.

"Don't insult me like that, I know I don't look like your handsome idol but come on, you gotta love your future husband!"

Husband, you can't even imagine him being your husband, not only in this life, infact in any life. You looked away from him.

"Okay, I am going!" He put his hands up like surrendering something. Again the same darkness engulfed the room as soon as he closed the door behind him. Your brain was so clouded with the thought of this new person in your life that you almost forgot about the key.

"Well, I trust you, anyways, that's not a important key, enjoy your ice cream baby."

An unimportant key to him, that means it is not the door lock, obviously because he just locked the door infront of your eyes. So, the plan A, to open the hand cuff.

You looked towards the door, tried to listen if he is still out there. Clear. So you got up, took the spoon and with its help you dug out the key from the tub. Cleaned it with your dress because Fuck the dress!

Very slowly you pushed the key in the lock. You rotated the key anti-clock wise but no luck. Second try, you pushed the key clock wise and there!

With a click sound effect it opened. You released a breath which you didn't realise you were holding for a long time.

You quickly freed your hand. But, no way to escape this room. No windows, and a locked door.

Now what?

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

"What?"

Jin was looking at Oindri with a questioning look. "What? I will drive the car." Oindri took out the car keys and got up to the driver seat.

"No way, get down!" Jin stated. "You two are overly panicked right now and the only calm person here is me, so it is the fact that I am going to drive the car."

Without any further argument she got down from the car and went to the passenger seat. Taehyung went on the back seat because clearly no option. He was still trying to call you but same response, 'switched off'.

Jin started the car. "Take the left" she pointed towards a relatively empty road. Taehyung was zoned out on the back seat with his phone on his hands. "Taehyung-ah, keep your eyes on the road, we all should look out for something suspicious on the road."

With a soft nod, Taehyung put the phone inside his pocket and looked outside the window.

Few minutes passed by, but there was nothing. They were still clueless. By that time Oindri was a crying mess. She was constantly murmurring something under her breath.

Suddenly the car stopped. Both of the passengers whipped their heads towards Jin who was looking at the pavement side of the road. The road was clean and empty. But a white coloured something was lying infront on the footpath.

"It's a phone." Jin's eyesight was too powerful because he was right. Taehyung quickly got out of the car, followed by Oindri. She picked up the phone and started crying loudly.

"This...this is...her phone." She breathed out. A tear drop rolled down Taehyung's cheek which he was trying to hold for a long time.

He promised you that he would never leave your side that day. The promise was not only meant for that day like you knew, but for a long time. He wanted to tell you something today. Something he wanted to tell you the very first time when his eyes met your crying orbs at the airport. From that very time, he wanted to protect you. Because you looked very fragile and broken. After spending some time with you he was determined that you deserved better. So he made that promise. To be your side, and never leave you. But he failed. Now there was no point to control his emotions, so he let his tears fall. One thing he was sure, he liked you, genuinely.

Jin was not sure what to do in that situation with two other crying. He took the phone from her hand. The top à the screen was shattered but the rest of the screen was okay. He peeled off the glass protection from the phone which made the screen any scratch free. But top of the phone was still damaged. He pressed the locked button hoping it would open.

Surprisingly it did!

"Thanks to the people who made this hard ass back cover for the phone." Oindri looked up to see a smiling Jin wiggling the phone in his hand.

"If it was password protection free, I would have checked which cab she booked and get the details of the cab."

"I know, I know the password, I hope its the sane from the last time" She quickly took the phone and typed 'Junmylove' and the lock screen changed to home screen.

Oindri was extremetly happy that it opened but supremely dissapointed to know that Jun was still so important for you that you.

"Okay, she booked a 'easy-transport' company cab. Here is the car details and drivers info." Jin clicked at the driver's photo, and Taehyung took a good look at the photo. Oindri was eager to see also, but when Taehyung handed her the phone, her whole world came crashing to her feet.

"What the fuck is he doing in Singapore and why the fuck is he enrolled as a driver?"
