LLU 44
How should I put it into words. “…What?” The fleeting moment that passed before my mother asked me that in return. Loud music and people’s chatter pour into my ears. I sit motionless like I’ve turned into a statue, silently taking in every change in my mother’s expression. Her widely opened eyes, her trembling lips, and her pupils slowly enlarging as they fill with shock. Gradually, the noise ringing in my ears fades. As if my hearing has gone completely white. Yet at the same time,…-

LLU 43
The atmosphere turned icy cold, as if someone had poured cold water over it. A short silence passed. My mother seemed to have read the tremor in my voice. Realizing that something was seriously wrong, she nodded with a bewildered expression. “Okay, let’s go out. Honey, it looks like Woonie has something he wants to talk to me about.” “Hm...” Chairman Choi looked unmistakably displeased. It was understandable from his perspective—finally gathered together, yet leaving before properly…-

LLU 42
“Mr. Junghan, thank you so much. You’ve been taking such good care of Oonie. I heard Oonie even canceled the dormitory. I’m not sure if that’s too much of a burden.” “What burden? Oonie’s not a child; he’ll manage fine on his own. Come on, let’s all go in. We should eat dinner.” “But what about the baby…?” My voice rang out awkwardly amid the bustling atmosphere. My mother smiled at my question like a fully bloomed flower. “Mmm, the baby is sleeping with the sitter…-

LLU 41
Even at the very least, don’t people take their pet dogs kept at home out for regular walks? Choi Junghan is truly viciously unwilling to let me out into the outside world. Of course, I also think that not going out at all is a hundred times better than walking side by side with Choi Junghan among those flowering trees. “Want to go look at the flowers at least?” Choi Junghan approached holding two mugs and asked in a kind tone. I glanced at him. He had just showered and was wearing comfortable…-

LLU 40
“Arrived...” Before the driver could even fully stop the car, I tossed a 50,000-won bill at him as if throwing it and flung the door open. Leaving behind the driver shouting “Student! Your change!” I ran into the hospital like a madman. Having been confined in a room without moving for so long, my calf bones already ached after just a few steps. My legs quickly cramped up tightly, and my breathing became ragged and labored. But there was no time to mock my drastically reduced stamina.…-

LLU 39
I swept my trembling gaze across the bed. Following the long, hideous chain with my eyes—the one that restrained me like a criminal—I snatched at it abruptly. The metal lump was buried under the blanket. Seeing the shackle, which only Choi Junghan's hand could unlock, now gaping open as if it had spat out my ankle, I shuddered. My heart began to pound madly. Choi Junghan had never once made such a mistake before. He often washed me when I collapsed in exhaustion at dawn and carried me back to…-

LLU 38
The faint sound of water awakens my sleep-soaked hearing. When I open my eyes, the room is always dark. The approaching dawn is still faint at this hour. Gazing at the pale light of daybreak seeping in through the window cracked open about a hand's width, I let out a deep breath and close my eyes again. Choi Junghan tends to go to work quite early. He wakes up precisely at six, showers, and eats a simple breakfast. He usually has fruit or a sandwich for breakfast, and I, too, have had to follow his…-

LLU 37
“Really such a pathetic whore.” A bored voice condemned me. As he said, I was pathetically unskilled. Until now, I had never needed to learn this insane act. I had taken his thing in my mouth countless times, but it had always been his one-sided violence, never my will. “Open your throat wider and lower your tongue.” A languid voice commanded. Because a chillingly sinister heat hid behind the seemingly relaxed tone, I reflexively obeyed his words. My stiffened tongue wrapped around the…-

LLU 36
Then at some point, he raised the level of pressure for the sake of his own amusement. Even as the lab rat—its belly slit open, entrails fully exposed—screamed and screamed that it could no longer endure, he no longer showed any intention of stopping this insane experiment. “But now that you’ve seen this, how does our Un feel? Doesn’t your protective instinct surge up again?” His soft voice pretended to be calm, but now I could hear the glee surging beyond it. “Your mother is…-

LLU 35
If I smashed, wrecked, and tore apart everything in this place, would even a little of this directionless rage be relieved? I wanted to wreck and destroy this neatly organized space as much as I possibly could. Since I couldn’t harm Choi Junghan himself, I at least wanted to utterly demolish his space. It might be futile, but doing that—even just that—seemed like it would let me breathe a little easier. My trembling hands tried to lift the chair, but it was too much. In truth, even supporting…-
