Even though she's already had a tough life at just the age of 18, Hae Won is about to receive another blow from life as if the universe has something against her. Her mother abandoned her after she was born.Her dad used to beat her up as she reminded him of the woman who left him.As karma would have it he recently passed away leaving Hae Won all alone. Hae Won is a genius so she easily manages to get a scholarship and uses the pocket money to rent out a single tiny room which is all she needs for now. She can't bare any type of affection from people.She's alive but she's not living Present day.... Chapter1
It is just another normal school day for Hae Won .She wakes up from her dorm ,gets ready then goes out to wait for Yuri who arrives short of breath as she was running late.
Yuri: Good morning my little ray of sunshine
Hae Won:(annoyed)Aishh when are you ever going to be on time
Yuri: (acting cute) The day I hear my alarm.Lets go.
The girls get to school and go on with their lessons .After school Yuri has different plans diverting from their normal routine
Hae Won:(skeptical) We should just go home
Yuri:No ,(sulking )my parents are always fighting I don't want to go yet
Hae Won: (sad)Atleast you have some
Yuri: I'm sorry if I'm being insensitive
Hae Won :No it's okay ,so what then
Yuri :(excited) Let's go have some fun
Hae Won:(sulking) I have to study
Yuri :(teasingly) For a person who lives alone you really are no fun.If I was you I'd party till the sunrise everyday
Hae Won:Well you're not ,so let's just go to my place
Yuri :That place is dead ,boring and depressing No !
Hae Won:Aish you brat. Okay but I don't have any money
Yuri: It's okay my boyfriend gave me some.
Hae Ra: (surprised) Boyfriend?
Yuri: (dodgy)Aish let's just go, I'll tell you all about him later
The girls go out into the city start at their usual spot.It's the cafe with their favourite photo booth and like always they take pictures before they go out to order.As they are exiting the booth Yuri immediately ducks
Hae Won:(confused) What's with you
Yuri: (whispering) Aish keep quiet, let's leave now
Hae Won scans the room for any threats and she only spots a group of girls from a different school who are taking selfies
Hae Won: Do you know them
Yuri:(dodgy) Aish just let it go, let's talk outside
Hae Won: (still confused) Okay okay
The girls try sneaking out but then the leader of the girls from the other school sees something in the background of her perfect picture. She zooms in and it's one girl standing and one ducking and immediately looks back only to yell "Yuri!".
As she's been caught she already knows she's in trouble and grabs Hae Wons hand and runs for her life
Leader: (pissed)That bitch! let's get her
Meanwhile.... Hae Won stops Yuri
Hae Won: What's going on!
Yuri: (uneasy )Aish this is not the time ,they are catching up
Hae Won: No explain first
Yuri:Remember that boyfriend of mine
Hae Won:Yes ,what about him?
Yuri: (shy)I kinda sorta (whispering) snatched him from her
Hae Won: (pissed)Aish seriously
Yuri:(ashamed) This is not the time or place
She grabs Hae Won and they run off into some alley and hide behind the trash
Leader :Aish you lost them .Keep looking you fools!
They leave the area
Hae Won: Aish what have you gotten yourself into
Yuri: (smiling)It's just because you haven't met him,he's really cute
Hae Won:(annoyed) No guy is worth hidding in trash
Yuri: Aish he is
Hae Won: What's her deal though,if she got dumped that's that .
Yuri: (happy )Omo is this my Hae Won defending me
Hae Won: (pissed) No what you did was just shameless.She shouldn't be fighting for a guy who doesn't deserve her that's all
Yuri: Aish now you're making me feel bad
Hae Won: You should!
She starts walking away and Yuri just follows her sulking
Yuri:(sad)I'm sorry
Hae Won: You don't have to apologize ,I can't stay mad at you
Yuri: (hugs her)My Hae won
Hae Won: (pushing her off)My Yuri
Yuri: (sulking) When will you hug me back
Hae Won: I can't make promises i can't keep.
Yuri: Its okay I'll keep on waiting for it (sulking) even if it means my bestfriend will hug me back when were grannies
Hae Won:(laughing) You're such a drama queen
Yuri :(looking around)Where are we though?
Hae Won: I'm not sure I've never come down this path before
Yuri :(relieved) Awe there's a person over there let's ask for directions...Excuse me sir
As she's walking towards the person a gun is fired making both of the girls scream and immediately a second gunshot is heard but Yuri feels it too.
She just kneels then falls to the ground lifeless .Hae Won let's out a silent scream and immediately hides.
Meanwhile the man who just pulled the trigger just stands there looking at Yuri. A younger man comes rushing to him
Young man:(worried) I heard gunshots. (looking down)Omo you killed her
Man:(meh)Aish calm down Sung-Jin
Sung-jin:(frantic) How can I be calm when you just shot someone
Man :(annoyed) Aish she startled me ,I was shooting some rat then she screamed and I shot her too.Big deal ,it's just an accident.
Sung -Jin: (dumbfound) But sir...
Man :(cutting him off)I could've sworn I heard two screams
Sung-Jin:But...
Man :If you say" but" one more time I'll shoot you too
Sung-jin:Sorry sir
Man :Stop acting like this is the first dead person you've seen.Let's search for the other girl, I'm certain there were two.
Hae Won gets even more scared. She has frozen in shock can't run and she's still crying.
It doesn't take Sung-jin any longer to spot Hae Won and she just looks at him pleading for mercy
Man:Did you find her ?
Sung-jin:(shaky)No Mr Lee
Mr Lee :(smirking) Okay,let's go
Sung-jin :Okay
Mr Lee starts walking but he's going the opposite direction .He's headed straight for Hae Won and there's nothing Sung-jin can do to save her.
Mr Lee :(spotting Hae Won)So yo think I'm dumb
Sung-jin:(nervous) No sir
Mr Lee:(choking him)You know I like you very much. You've only been working for me for a month but I already see you as a son.
Sung- jin:I'm sorry sir
Mr Lee:You better be,you know your father saved my life so many times.Im grateful so I'll spare you this once ,(letting him go)go get the car
Sung-jin:And the girl?
Mr Lee:Dont worry I'm not killing her,(smirking ) yet.
Sung-jin does as told and Mr Lee grabs Hae Won from where she's hiding
Mr Lee:And to think I almost missed a pretty little thing like you....Still in highschool...You look so innocent...We're going to have fun tonight.
Hae Won just spits in his face
Mr Lee: (excited)I like them fiesty,
He slaps her right across the face
Mr Lee:(pissed)But learn to respect me
Hae Won doesn't even flinch.
Sung-jin arrives with the car and Mr Lee gets in the back seat with Hae Won
Sung-jin :Where to?
Mr Lee :The second house
Sung-jin :Okay sir
Hae Won silently cries all the way there and with the way Mr Lee is handling her she already knows what awaits her.As they arrive four guards await them
Mr Lee :Take her up to the room
Guard 1:Okay sir
Sung-jin:But ...
Mr Lee:(annoyed) I told you not to say" but" again.
Sung-jin just looks at him
Mr Lee: Aish this kid,if you want me to be a monster i will.Take him downstairs, he needs to get his punishment.
Sung-jin:I'm sorry
Mr Lee:I like you kid ,I really do .But when given an order you have to follow it .You didn't so you get punished.
Sung- jin:Next time I will
Mr Lee:( hugging him) Yes you will ,take him away
Guard 2 :Okay sir!
The guard drags Sung-jin to the basement where they torture all their victims.
Mr Lee :Whip him till his back bleeds
Guard 3 :Okay sir
Mr Lee :And make sure no-one disturbs me ,I'm going to play with my little doll
Guard 4:Okay sir!
Mr Lee goes up to the room and arrives just in time as the guard has just finished tying and gagging Hae Won.
Mr Lee doesn't waste anytime and starts undressing Hae Won who is slowly dying from the inside.
MEANWHILE.... They are beating the life out of Sung-jin
Guard 2:You should've listened kid
Guard 3:We don't like hitting our own but what the boss says goes.
Sung-jin: I've seen how he treats girls,I just wanted to save her.
Guard 3:(chuckles) You chose the wrong line of work.Now you bleed for her.
The guard starts whipping him. Sung-jin's cries of pain and Hae Wons cries of disgust fill the house.As soon as Mr Lee has finished raping Hae Won he takes a shower and puts his wedding ring back on .
Hae Won just lies on the bed lifeless and Mr Lee exits and heads to the basement where Sung-jin is still being tortured.
Mr Lee :You can stop now ,i think he's learnt his lesson now
All:Okay sir!
Mr Lee :(disgusted) Pour some water on him I can't talk to him when he's covered in all this blood.
The guards rinse him off and untie him.
Mr Lee: If i ask you to do something will you do it for me ,truthfully.
Sung-jin:Yes
Mr Lee :Okay ,(playful) I've got a job for you.
Sung-jin :What is it?
Mr Lee :You can walk right, the boys didn't treat to you too bad
Sung-jin :Yes I can
Mr Lee: Well there's that girl in my room .You know I'm very faithful to my wife and I don't want her getting the wrong idea so could you remove her.
Sung-jin:Okay I will
Mr Lee:Here's your gun
Sung-jin:Wait you want me to kill her?
Mr Lee:(patting him) Awe you're too naive, get with the program. I want you to remove her from this world send her to heaven or hell (laughing) Who cares
Sung-jin:Now?
Mr Lee: Yes ,don't be a wimp now.I want that man who killed that hag in cold blood okay
Sung-jin:Okay
Mr Lee: Go get her we'll go to the usual place
Sung-Jin :Okay sir
He goes up to the room and Hae Won is just laying there as a shell of the girl she once was. He covers her up .
Sung -Jin:I'm sorry about what happened to you
She just remains quiet
Sung-jin:Look they want to kill you, I need you to cooperate with me.
She remains quiet
Sung-jin:I'm going to put rubber bullets in my gun and you'll just have to play dead okay
Hae Won: I'm already dead
Sung-jin:No you're not,don't give up okay. You need to live if not for yourself then for your friend.
Hae Won breaks down
Sung -Jin: Okay we don't have time just play along ,we have to go downstairs now ,can you move?
Hae Won:I went numb the moment he touched me
Sung-Jin:Okay I'll carry you
He carries her baring through the pain he is in .Hae Won is placed into the trunk of the car and they drive off to some plain
Mr Lee: Do the honours Sung-jin
Without hesitation Sung-jin points his gun to Hae Won but as he's about to shoot Mr Lee stops him
Mr Lee: Use my gun instead that will be more fun.
Sung-jin takes the gun and aims less confidently at her again.
Mr Lee: (clears his throat)We don't have all day son
Sung-jin pulls the trigger
