⭐️ Love tragedy/ Emotional trauma / Crime and Mystery
At that moment, the news playing on the TV suddenly caught both our attention. We both looked up.
"The manager of DL Bank has been missing for three days. Authorities suspect he may have been kidnapped..."
A photograph appeared on the screen.
My hands froze.
My eyes widened.
It was him.
The same man whose body had fallen out of that sack earlier that morning.
My stomach twisted.
Slowly, I turned my head and looked at the man sitting on the couch.
He looked completely unbothered.
Like the news had nothing to do with him.
Like the body in his house wasn't real.
I lowered my eyes and took a small bite of the sandwich.
A sob escaped my throat before I could stop it.
Tears rolled down my cheeks but I kept chewing on food.
I didn't even realize I was crying until I tasted salt.

She followed a stranger one snowy night.
By morning, she realized she had walked straight into a killer's house.
The man who saved her from freezing to death was the same man who calmly promises to kill her one day.
Some people disappear without a trace.
She just happened to witness why.
The worst part wasn't that he was a killer.
The worst part was that he was the only one keeping her alive.
He buried bodies in secret, lived like a ghost,
and somehow ended up with a girl who saw everything.
She should have run the moment she saw the body.
Instead, she stayed.
"What happens when the person you fear the most becomes the only person you can trust?"
"For those who live for once and .....
die for......?"
