*Di-Hee's POV*
It was late at night and I was working till late. Some employees took leave for some days and now I have to do the necessary work of reviewing their work and sending it further for confirmation. It was half past eleven when I completed all the files. I arranged my table and left for home.
I was waiting for the cab to arrive when suddenly I thought of just walking home but seeing the time and the current circumstances I dropped the idea.
The whole way I was hella sleepy and was about to doze off when the stop came. I thanked the man who was driving and made my way to the ally.
I felt like someone was following me so I speeded and suddenly a man in black with a mask of the same came in front of me. And I was startled for a minute. Suddenly he took out something from his pocket and put it in my mouth.
I instantly understood what that was so I tried my best to hold my breath and fight but eventually inhaled that chemical and passed out.
When I woke up there was a sudden stroke of pain hitting my head and I tried to move but my hands seemed to be tied. I tried to open my eyes and when my vision cleared I looked at the man who was dressing my wounds. Wait, what! Where did these wounds come from? I don't remember getting any.
I wiggled and the man noticed me but his whole face was covered with a mask only showing his eyes. I was scared seeing him take an iron rod in his hands.
"Now, sweetie. Don't you piss me off or otherwise who knows what I will end up doing." He continuously flipped the pipe in his hands indirectly telling me to just obey.
"Wh-who are you?" My voice as expected broke and weak, like a mere whisper.
"You will get to know when you will get married to me." He chuckled at last and I was like frozen at my place.
"Marr-married?" And he turned towards me with those amusement-filled eyes.
"Yes married. I am gonna marry you and the other six girls. But don't worry I am all equal to all of you." I was devastated and tears unknowingly slipped my eyes. His words made me feel disgusted. But what he said next shocked me beyond words.
"Oh! Yes. You are best friends with that strong girl, aah, yes Do Bong-Soon. Right?"
More tears slipped through my eyes as I looked at him without uttering a word. And maybe he was pissed off. He inhaled a deep breath and tried to calm his anger which was visible in his eyes.
"See, beautiful. Why do you want to make me hurt you? Just answer my questions and I won't do anything. I promise. Why get bruises on such a beautiful body, no?"
I slowly nodded my head. Not wanting to get beaten up and Bong-Soon is strong so she can protect herself right? I don't wanna live that dread memory again.
"See, it was not that difficult. Now behave and I won't do anything. And you know what you are the first one who is not creating any nuisance. Good girl" And he started to untie my hands, only to tie them together.
I was taken aback by his words. And looked around to find three girls confined in jail type room. My heartbeats raised as I looked at those girls who were crying and were wearing a dress of a bride.
I looked at myself to find myself also wrapped in that clothes. A wedding dress. Did he change my clothes? I tried to say something but nothing came out of my mouth.
He dragged me to another cell and threw me as if I were some object. And without looking back he left. Other girls were crying very loudly and it was giving me a headache.
"CAN'T YOU ALL JUST SHUT UP? YOU ARE GIVING ME A HEADACHE. JUST KEEP QUIET." I shouted and it was indeed kind of scary. I was also shocked to find myself shouting at someone for the first time.
They all immediately turned silent. Only hiccups were heard. And it eased my throbbing head a little.
I remembered eomma's face and all the people who care about me. I didn't cry. I won't. What's the use when no one is going to hear those? I closed my eyes and Guk-Du's face came in front of me. I felt guilty and the reason is nothing. Literally nothing.
I remember that this man tried to kidnap Kyung-Shim once. And was beaten by Bong-Soon herself.
I didn't know when time flew in silence and it was night as one of his helpers came to give food and said it was dinner.
I lost my appetite. But I ate for eomma, Bong-Soon and somewhere in my heart for Guk-Du. I tried to be as quiet as possible, observing my surroundings. And since I was wearing my lenses I was able to see clearly. But my eyes were hurting insanely and I cannot remove them. I even told him a few hours ago but he didn't pay attention, maybe.
I tried so hard not to cry but at night I just can't control myself.
