Karina
The blowing night wind pierced my weak body from outside. The darkness of the night seemed to merge with the darkness in my life. I was pensively alone on the balcony of the room watching the moon and the bright stars.
When people are sad the sky is happy even by showing millions of stars adorning the night sky. The sky wants to comfort the heart that is always sad, but the effort of the sky is fruitless.
I was wearing a long white nightgown that was not too thick. My hair just unraveled and without anyone I could lean on.
I looked at the garden in the grounds of this magnificent old palace. The flowers bloomed beautifully, only the faithful garden lights illuminated the darkness of my night. I am like those flowers. Beautiful but not free. We both bloom but when withered will be cut and then thrown away. Life is useless and suffering.
"Mama, sister why did you leave me alone. Take me with you to heaven" I told the sky.
The living thing that saw me must have thought I was a princess from a fairy tale world. Beautiful and alive in a big castle. I'm like Rapunzel. But he can still chat and have fun with the witch. I can't even get out of this room. Nor has he ever been tortured like me for violence and blows.
I can't get out of this room. I can only go down to the dining room at the appointed hour. Life is full of rules and coercion, no one should know where I am. Even one of my legs is in chains.
No one out there knows even my name. My life is even lower than a chicken.
Every day I just keep quiet in my room with my favorite dog bibby. He was like a friend, friend and family to me. No HP, TV and computer. I really want to be free and go wherever I want without having to be tortured afterwards.
Even mosquitoes and flies pity my fate.
I live in this old palace only with servants and guards. The woman ordered people to keep an eye out from CCTV. Luckily there were two rooms free of CCTV cameras, one of which was my room.
The night was getting colder, I immediately entered and closed the glass door of my room balcony. If I get the flu or get sick of anything then I'll be tortured. I also need strength and strength to survive this miserable life.
Fortunately, the woman never came to see me again. I never got violence from him again.
Sunlight coming in from the glass of the balcony door. The light of day woke me up as usual.
Bruck...
I peeked out of the crack of the door checking the storm outside the room.I saw so many servants busy tidying up the entire house.
"What is this bibby? Why are they so busy? Will she come with a big guest? But he never brought anyone here" I told bibby.
Gukk Gukk..
Bibby barked in answer to my question.
"That's bibby. There is no benefit with me anyway. Even I am the one who was harmed because I will not have food rations all day" I said again.
I shower and change my clothes. From the whole big closet, everything is just a nightgown. I also want to wear fancy dresses, jeans, T-shirts, and skirts like the rest of the girls.
I'm 20 years old, I can already feel what it's like to enjoy eating chicken and soju. I also wonder what it's like to date.
My day went by so fast. It's late and I've finished bathing and cleaning myself. I held bibby in my arms while standing looking up at the night sky as usual.
Citttt...
I looked towards the sound of the car brakes squeaking in the parking lot. A black sedan parked there. The woman was already waiting in the living room, meaning it was a long-awaited guest.
The door of the sedan car opened, a man in a black suit came out from inside. Waw..That guy is so handsome and cool. I've seen handsome men in magazines and newspapers stolen from the living room. But I've never seen anything like him.
White skin, height, legs, broad and sturdy shoulders, thick hair and beautiful eyes, and a charming face shape. But wait a minute.
I think I know those eyes. But where is it? Hey Karina you never even got out of this old building, how could you know her.
Gukk.. Gukk.. Gukk...
"Hey bibby Ssttt don't be noisy" I told the bibby who was barking at the man.
Fuck me, he's conscious. The man stopped his steps and stared at us. I'll bring bibby in. I ran as far as I could and closed the door. My leg chain is heavy, so it's hard to run and it's going to hurt a lot.
"Bibby why are you so noisy, what if that woman hears it" I told bibby. I hope the man doesn't talk about this, or I should be punished again.
I opened the door and peeked at their conversation. "Bibby what are they talking about? why did he bring guests here" I whispered to my lovely dog.
I could see the man sitting quietly lifting one of his legs and leaning back. That guy is very handsome. Looks like he's grown enough. He's much older than me.
"I want to use your special forces to take care of me during my candidacy for chairman of the council until I'm named" the woman said seriously.
"How can I entrust the lives of my special forces to protect a horrible woman like you. Do you think I don't know how you are?" the answer is demeaning to the woman. .
Whatisthis? Chairman council? Nah! Can't!
I ran as hard as I could to get to them. "No!!! no!!" my yelling.
"You guys what you're doing. Get him in!!" the woman's orders to the guards. They pulled me back into the room, I had to put all my energy out.
"Don't want uncle. This woman is a demon. Don't want to be in the process"
my yelling.
"No, don't listen to him. She is a terrible crazy girl" the woman said in self-defense.
I tried to escape the guards. "I beg uncle. Don't stupid. If you accept this offer of the devil, then many people will suffer, and you will regret it" I shouted back.
"DON'T WANT!! LET GO OF ME FOOL" I shouted again. But someone pulled the lever of this chain. I was pulled back up.
Bruckk..
I fell to the floor and was drawn to the room.
Corms. Corms. Corms.
Bibby barked furiously when she saw me being treated this harshly. He bit one of the guards.
They locked me in my room again. I tried to stop the woman even though I knew I would be severely tortured. May the man hear my words.
I peeked back yet from the crevices of the old door of my room.
"As for Steven, I'll pay you as much as you want. Or I'll give you whatever you want" the woman pleaded.
The man didn't budge for a moment. His mind was hovering somewhere. "I beg you not to accept" I don't know who.
"All right, I'll accept this offer. But you have to pay dearly and on one condition" replied the man.
The woman was so excited to get the man's approval. "Alright I'll transfer the money directly. Then what's the requirement?" ask the woman.
"God turns out that man is the same as this demonic woman. They are both heartless." I told bibby. I left the door and looked back at the night sky. Tonight I will be punished horribly.
About an hour waiting, the woman slammed the door and entered my room.
Awhhh...
He pulled my hair very hard.
"Take me off disgusting woman. Chairman council? don't hope. You're even lower than dog shit" I said a sharp greeting to her.
Gukk.. Gukk.. Gukk..
The woman kicked the bibby into the closet.
"Babby!! Why did you kick him" I shouted at him.
He threw me on the floor, "The bitch. How dare you interrupt my business. And now you dare look at me like that. Looks like you haven't been tortured enough" he said in a loud voice.
"You torture him!" the woman's orders to the guards.
- Steven - Steven
I was shocked when I heard the girl call me a fool. He doesn't know who I am but calls me stupid.
"Alright you have to pay dearly and on one condition" I replied to this annoying woman.
"Alright I'll transfer the money directly. Then what's the requirement?" ask the woman.
I confirmed my sitting position, "I'll tell you later" I said.
Our conversation is over. I went back to my sedan parked outside.
I walked by still thinking about the girl's words. He seemed to be nine dozen or twenty years old. Jessica was terrible at treating her own child like an animal.
I looked up at the balcony of the girl's room. This house is an old building that is not too big. Although it was on the second floor, I could clearly see the face of the person standing on the balcony.
The girl stood looking at me from there. A look I don't understand either.
