18 Help

"Phew, that was close. Why did I say it like that?" Eunica was hiding behind the wall from her uncle.

'If he finds out, I'm not the only one who'll be in danger, Jin and the others too. I need to be careful.'

She then went to the cafeteria and bought some snack.

'I told him that I won't be going out of my room, but here I am,' Eunica sits down on one of the tables.

'If he sees me here, he'll be mad, but why did I act that way earlier? That's too childish,' she took a bite of the burger while her eyebrows furrow with what she did to Jin.

'I'm letting my pride eat me again, it's true, I should've gone with him but there'll be more trouble... I don't know what to do,' she sighs and then took a sip of her soda.

The cafeteria doesn't even have one soldier in it.

The people working there are tensed as well.

'That uncle, he's a problem, really.'

Everyone's afraid of him, he hits, fires and even kills people who are not following him.

Eunica started to feel sad for the people working in the institution.

From what she remembered before, the institution was like a family when her father's the President.

Everyone was happy and treated each other nicely.

"I thought you won't be going out?"

Someone's standing behind her, but she already knows who that is.

She felt embarrassed but when she turned around, Jin's already walking away.

"He's sulking," she said.

"Should I follow him?" She just watches Jin walk and went out of the cafeteria.

For some reasons, she doesn't want to talk and explain what she's feeling since she doesn't understand it as well.

"Hm, I'll have another burger," she stands up and bought another one to finally ease her hunger.

Jin just waits outside the cafeteria sitting on the floor, thinking Eunica would follow him.

But after some time, he stands up with the coldest expression.

'Why did I expected that she'll follow me? She's been like that."

He remembers whenever they will have a fight before, Eunica will not talk to him and even pretend he's not there.

They will only reconcile when they are scolded by Hyung or by Dr. Arlene.

"Tch, do we still need to be scolded?"

He covers his face, tears suddenly flow from his eyes.

'I'm so tired, I just want to be free,' he thought and then stood up without noticing Eunica standing behind him.

'Is he crying?' Eunica holds biscuits that she's planning to give Jin.

'I'll kill that old man and everything will be alright, Mom... Angel... and Mr. President will return, everything will be fine, we'll be free, we'll be happy.'

He clenched his fist and wiped his tear wearing the most devilish smile before turning away from the cafeteria.

"Did I do that?" Eunica just stands frozen.

Jin's crying face replayed again and again on her mind.

"AH! I need to say sorry!" She started running to follow Jin.

The halls never felt so long, she suddenly grew tired.

"What the hell? I just ate, why don't I have any strength?"

She slows down and sat on the floor, catching her breath.

Suddenly, she felt dizzy.

Her visions blurred and everything went black.

Good thing she's sitting already and she won't hit her head that hard.

Nobody's around.

No one will see her until the next patrol of the soldiers.

Jin won't be able to help her.

She made him cry.

"Now, what do we have here?"

A man suddenly appeared from the shados and saw Eunica, laying on the floor.

His eyes wandered from her bare legs, up to her shorts, then her stomach that her shirt can't cover from her position.

His malicious stares, his grin, the logo on his uniform is the same with the assassins.

"I never thought that the heir is this pretty, gosh! I can't take it anymore, I'm not hungry for food anymore," he carried Eunica and then sniffed her hair deeply like he can devour her this way while his hands linger on Eunica's body before walking away.

"What a nice meal! I was hoping for Doctor Arlene, but you're better."

He opened a bottle of sleeping scent when Eunica went out of the cafeteria.

And with the time she took standing there, it affected her even though she run from it.

The man was supposed to target Doctor Arlene, but it was Eunica who went out of the cafeteria.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Every part of Eunica's body aches when she waked up.

Her head feels like someone hammered it.

She groans from the pain and tried to get her sleep back but something was off which made her sit up, "Where are my clothes?"

She's fully naked with nothing on her.

The pain suddenly disappeared while shivers scrape her bones.

Her mind went blank for a moment and then fear crept in.

Slowly, she pulls the blanket to cover herself.

"What happened?"

Her wide eyes just stared at the walls.

"This is not my room, it's a V.I.P," she lingers her eyes around.

It does not have anything that will tell her what happened.

Her clothes are all around the place.

Her shirt's on the chair.

Her short's on the night table.

"My underwear, where are they?"

She tries to stand up, with the blank expression.

But her body's too painful.

And when she looked at her arms, it's full of bruises.

Her stomach has a whole bruise.

Her legs.

Almost her whole body's covered in bruises.

"What... happened?"

She tried to remember, she tried so hard.

But only tears came out.

She cried so loud, but V.I.P rooms are soundproof.

No one will hear her.

"Jin... Hyung... Dr.. help, please!"

She cried and cried, but it only made the pain worst.

Her tears drowned the blanket.

"I need to... ach!" She winced while moving to get her clothes.

Slowly, she puts them on.

But her underwear's nowhere to be found.

Even with an aching body, she searched the whole room with sobs and tears and trembling body.

And when she got exhausted, she sits down on the bed.

"Remember, what happened?"

She pulls her hair while tears almost washed her face.

"I can't let Jin see me this way," she suddenly panicked.

"I can't... if he sees me, he'll get mad..."

There's nothing on her head but fear.

And then she burst out crying again.

She doesn't want Jin to see her but she wants Jin to be with her.

"Help, Jin," she whispered.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jin was having breakfast when he saw the Personal Assistant and Assassin of the President pass by his room.

Aside from the gang, the President has his own assassin for some reason.

His pockets were so full that it almost bulged.

His clothes were a mess.

You might think he's running worriedly with how he looks, but a wide grin was on his face.

Jin suddenly got nervous, he didn't know why, but when he saw the guy's face, shiver's run down his spine, almost choking him.

He stops eating and went out to see where the guy came from.

But there are a lot of rooms where he might come from and every room's door are closed.

"Maybe I'm just overreacting since that old man's here," he whispered and then returned inside his room.
