"I'll make sure that he is gone from your life, forever", Daniel snarled as he steadily walked to the television screen, bending down a little at its side so as to be at eye level of the male figure in the video that was still determinedly pulling at the window grilles. "Everyday, we will have television time and everyday, we will watch how he fall apart. How he will beg for a morsel of food, how he will go on his knees for a drop of water, how he will go crazy trying to escape, how he will suffer every single second, minute and hour before his final breath."

      Yoseob shook his head in muted sadness and blinked away his tears, knees digging deep on the bed, unable to do more in his pleading as his hands remained bounded behind him while his ankles were tied together. "Daniel, please... You don't have to do this. We can go abroad, you have the money too. We will leave to somewhere, anywhere that you would like, and I'll be with you forever. If you're afraid that I'll leave, you can continue locking me in a house, or just allow me to be tied up like this."        "You're willing to sacrifice your freedom and life just for this man?!" Daniel asked incredulously as he pointed at the male figure whom he noticed was reaching for his phone. He began cackling maniacally as the male continued dialing and dialing, tears of joy forming in his eyes as the male threw the phone aside seemingly in frustration. Grinning evilly now, he returned his gaze to the smaller male whose eyes were wide and unblinking. "Look at him try. Look baby, he's losing it already. In case you were wondering, there is zero reception in that area and his phone is absolutely useless."       "Switch it off, I can't look at this anymore", Yoseob flicked his eyes straight into Daniel's,  sitting on the heels of his feet now, although still in a kneeling position. He gave a soft sniffle and slumped his shoulders as he whispered, "switch it off, please."       The taller male thankfully obliged and turned off the television but his cruel smirk never left his face. "For today, I'll allow for that. Anyway, his desperation and pain would fully develop only after a period of time when hunger, thirst and fear settles in. That, we have to watch every moment of it." He strolled back to the smaller male's bed and sat facing him. Raising a hand, he thumbed away the fallen tears of Yoseob and cooed nauseatingly, "Baby, this Yong Jun Hyung will be out of your life, out of our lives, and we will return to what we used to be. A loving couple who would look at one another."       Yoseob bit back a retort, that they were never loving, they were never a real couple. However, he knew that he had to keep his attitude in check at the present moment so as to not agitate the deranged man any further. Attempting a pitiable set of puppy eyes, he tilted his head for added cuteness and muttered, "I'm hungry, Daniel. Can you go get something for me?"       The taller male gave a detestable sound of happiness as he stood up quickly, "you are finally willing to eat something? Of course, I'll get food for you! In fact, I was about to go back home to get the maids to whip up your dinner before bringing it to you! What about water, you haven't drink much for the second day already. And all these crying would probably have dehydrated you even more. Should I get you a cup now?"       "There's no need to", Yoseob replied, almost sweetly, "I'll drink when it's dinner time. Please just go quickly and get dinner for me me."       Daniel nodded gleefully as he gathered his car keys, gave a kiss to the smaller male's lips and smiled when the latter had not flinched at all but instead, even pressed closer into the kiss. Hurriedly, he left the room, closing the door behind him and ran out of the main door to go get food for dinner. It seemed like the day couldn't get any better as Junhyung was trapped in a house with only death as an escape while Yoseob was finally opening up to him. It could only get better from now on as he drove speedily off to his mansion to get the food for the romantic dinner he plans to have with the smaller male tonight. And if things went well, tonight, he would take and claim Yoseob as his.         ------     The fair male sat quietly on his bed, listening to the fading footsteps of Daniel and when he heard the lock of the main door being activated, he waited. Glancing at the wall clock, he wiped his lips on his shoulder to remove remnants of the lip kiss with Daniel, then he waited and waited until the minute hand of the clock indicated that a full five minutes had passed already. Deeming it as safe enough, he hopped off the bed and fumbled with the door knob of the room due to his hands being trapped at his back. Opening the door, he took a quick scan of the apartment he was in. It was the same as what he remembered of it at the few times he had tried to escape when Daniel was out at work. However, all of the windows were tightly sealed and locked. Even the main door required a password to open it from the inside. He knew that Daniel would also receive an alert the moment it was opened by anybody else.       Noting that the apartment was completely silent, he jumped back into the room on his connected legs, not stopping until he arrived at the windows where he could see the same view of endless files of trees. Taking a deep breath, he chose to trust his gut instinct and he begun singing.        “I’ll be your sweet suite room baby take a break,
Softly close your eyes, come a little closer.
I’ll be your sweet suite room baby take a break,
Baby don’t think about tomorrow, don’t think about anything.”       After one time, he clamped his lips together and listened intently for any sound at all. Frowning as his ears couldn't catch any thing at all other than the rustling of the leaves when a breeze went by. Inhaling deeply, he started singing the exact song one more time and not even halfway through, he heard a hushed "Yoseob ah..."       Tears welled up in his eyes immediately as he pressed his body as close as he could to the window grilles, wanting to listen to the familiar voice once again.        "Yoseob baby," the voice called once again, "I'm here."       Sniffing hard, Yoseob nodded to no one in particular as he croaked weakly, "I knew that you would, I knew that you would find a way to come for me. I trusted that you would do that."       "Baby," the voice came back, sounding slightly unsteady as if the owner of the voice was holding back his tears, "I need you to wait just for a little while more. There's no way we can get in to the house from the door without alerting Daniel. It has that tight security system that you probably know he has activated. The police is coming down from the apartment above to remove the grilles and they will rope you down to the apartment below where I am waiting."       The smaller male nodded like that of an obedient child but when he realized that he couldn't be seen, he managed a quivering "okay."        Glancing back at the wall clock, he realized that it hasn't even been ten minutes since Daniel left and yet, he couldn't be more impatient to leave this room. It was agonizing enough to be trapped here for almost two days already. Besides, being tied up for these two days had made him felt utterly useless and the lack of mobility frustrated him even more.        A shadow casted on him snapped him out of his thoughts as he saw that two men with sturdy and professional looking ropes tied to their waists were on the outside of the room's window, working swiftly and expertly on the lock of the grilles. It wasn't even two minutes later when there was a reliving click and one side of grilles managed to slide to the other side, revealing a space large enough for Yoseob to go through. Noting that the smaller male was all tied up, one of the men held him firmly with two arms and pulled him through the hole.       The other man looked up ahead and gave a thumbs up. Yoseob followed his gaze but squinted when the sunlight harshly hit his eyes. Figuring that all the details were unimportant anyway, he felt both the men being lowered slowly down to the level below that apartment he was in and since he was held by them, he was also descending with them.        The window of th
