Chapter four

After you park the car in the garage. You enter the house.

"I'm home!" You shout as you usually do. What you noticed that the light was on. But thought that you just accidentally left them on.

It sometimes happened.

You were taking off your shoes when you froze.

"Oh! Good that your back come to the dining table I need to talk to you!"

It was your mom's voice. What was she doing here? You were so shocked that you couldn't move. Not even an inch.

You just stood there. So many thoughts flooded your head.

Has something happened? Did I do something wrong? Does she know about the hospital? Is she here because of something important? Etc.

"Hey! Did you hear me Y/N! Come over." The fact that she called you by your name so coldly snapped you out of your thoughts as you walked with slow wide steps towards the dining room.

She was sitting at the end at the table and looked very serious.

"Oh no." You whispered underneath your breath so she couldn't hear you.

"Come sit." She patted the chair next to her.

You slowly walked over and sat down. You were trying to be as slow as possible.

Whatever reason she was here. It was definitely something important.

"Y/N. I have some news for you."

That was the last thing you wanted to hear. Whenever there was "news" they ended in arguments and then me getting punished as if I wasn't a human who could feel pain or emotions.

"I and your father have decided to..." She took a pause before she continued which just made you more nervous.

"... get you engaged." She finished.

Your mouth dropped you just couldn't wrap your fingers around what was happening.

"En-Engaged?"

"Yes. Y/N you can't escape from this. We will lock you in your room if you try anything. The boy's parents have already agreed. So there is no going back." She looked at you with a stare that meant serious businesses. She wasn't joking around.

You knew she would lock you in your room. She would put bodyguards everywhere. There would be no chance to escape. Even if I run.

They WILL find me. And I know it.

She stood up and walked to the kitchen. "I'll make something for you to eat. You will have to bodyguards that will follow you so that you don't escape. Don't worry. They won't follow you in your room."

The closed the door and left you in the big dining room.

You just sat there in the quiet. It wasn't the pleasant quiet it was the type of quite that you could drown in. It was suffocating.

So you left the room. As soon as you did you saw two bodyguards. You ignored them and walked to your room.

One of the bodyguards followed you to your bedrooms door and the other went outside to catch you if you tried the window escape plan.

Your parents knew all the ways that you could escape. And they made sure none of them would work.

You don't even need to test this theory.

You change in your pyjamas and get ready for bed. You needed rest. That was all you needed now. You didn't care about the food your so-called mom would cook.

You laid down looking at the roof. Your room was quite. Then you heard the raindrops outside your window.

"Guess it started raining. Even the sky is sad today." You sighed.

Knock Knock Knock

You heard the three cliché knocks on your door. Then the door opened letting the bright light from the corridor shine in.

"I brought you food." Your mom says as she turns on the lights.

You close your eyes from the sudden burst of light in your room.

Your mom places the food on the table and looks at you. There was nothing loving in her stare nothing in her eyes showed care or concern.

They were empty. You wish she would look at you like she looked at dad. She always had a spark in her eyes. You could tell just by her stare that she loved him and cared for him and so could you tell by dads eyes. But they never looked at you that way.....

.... never.

" Your fiancee's name is Jimin. Park Jimin. You might know him from that band... Ah, what was it.."

"BTS?" You interrupt her thinking.

"Ah! Yes, that's them. Looks like you know them. That's good. He will visit tomorrow. Sadly his parents won't make it." She held her head in her hand as she shook her head after the last sentence.

And then she left.

You couldn't move. Jimin...

.... You will marry Jimin.

"No no no no no..." You hugged your knees. And tears started to roll down your cheeks.

You can't marry Jimin. Because...

..... Because he deserved someone better. Someone who is pretty and who could return him the smile that he gave. Someone who could give him a happy life. Someone who would be strong and self-confident.

You can't even love yourself how could you love anybody else. You aren't ready for this. You aren't ready for marriage.

An-And h-he lied t-to you! He didn't come. He doesn't care about you!

You laid down on your side still hugging your knees as tight as you could. Tears still streaming down your cheeks as you fell asleep.

Fell asleep in a nightmare that you won't be able to awake from. Only when the sun will rise and a new day will start.

Only then will you awake from the nightmare to the real nightmare that is life.
