Shrunken flower, bloom brightly

A sleep that won't break

I've been knocking on the door for 30 minutes to get it to open.



Only blood flowed from my hands.



The secretary's blood on her clothes is cooling down and she's looking at me, but her eyes are unfocused.



It's not closing



I saw a human corpse for the first time



I clung to the wall to get as far away from the corpse as possible.



How far would it be if I moved away from that small room?



The corpse right in front of my nose seemed to be clouding my mind.



I can't forget the secretary's last words: "It's all my fault."



"Mr. Chairman... Mr. Chairman... Someone... is dead... Please... open the door..."



I can't breathe



Are you afraid of being locked in a small, windowless room? Or are you afraid of dead bodies?



It was both



As the fear continued, I felt like I was running out of oxygen.



"Ugh...gasp...ugh...Chairman...Chairman...please...open the door..."



"Huk...gasp...gasp...gulp...gasp...gasp...sob.."



'Oppa...Oppa...Someone died...I killed that person...'



'The old man's eyes are turning bluer and bluer, and he keeps blaming me.'



Knock knock!



"What on earth should I do... What do you want from me..."


"Huk........huh..........huh........."


My eyes are getting dark



dump



slam!



".....eww..."



"Tsk"


Someone hit me in the cheek



When I opened my eyes, I found myself out of that narrow, cramped room.



I think the chairman pulled me out when I collapsed and became quiet.



weird



My body keeps shaking



Even though I have no thoughts, I can't stop shaking.



"this.. "



The chairman bent down, placed his hand on my shoulder, and then fell down.



I couldn't push and scream like before.



I could only keep my eyes closed



The chairman looked at me and patted my head.



I asked the chairman, trembling.



"....Chairman...Secretary...Are you okay...? Are you alive...?"



I asked in denial, but the chairman did not answer.




"Tsk, there's blood on it."



He didn't answer me and instead looked at the blood on my clothes and said



tried to take off my clothes


I quickly stopped my hands as I unbuttoned each button.



"Chairman... please... today... today... just let me go... okay?"



"Next time... next time... I'll come back again... please... not today..."


"It's so... hard... I'll come next time."



Let's say this while holding back tears



The chairman said with a smile



"Yeah, you must be tired today haha. I'll take you home, so go in."



I put my clothes away and got into the car with trembling legs.



I was out of my mind



So I arrived home without my brother and went straight up to my father's study.



When my father saw me in the study, he put down the book he was reading.



He didn't say anything even though he saw me with my face haggard and my clothes ruined.



"Yeah, nothing happened.."



"Father... did you have fun?"



My father paused for a moment as I interrupted him.



"What does that mean?"



"Well... I felt so bad for myself... I was abandoned by my parents and came to an orphanage.
"I lived my life worrying about being abandoned, but my first adoptive family tried to take advantage of me..."




"When my father brought me to the orphanage, who did he say I resembled..?"



"I learned the meaning of those words through the chairman."



"They say I resemble the woman the chairman loved... That's why my father took me away..."



"I tried so hard... to be a family... like an idiot..."



I said this while looking at my father, whose expression did not change at all at my words.



"Anyone in the Republic of Korea would know that the Chairman has no children or grandchildren.

It was a well-known fact..."



"Haha ...


You knew how much I wanted a family..."



"You knew how much I wanted to be loved... but... but... why..."



Tears poured down



"Why did you do that...to me...sigh...sigh"



The phone the chairman threw me earlier contained messages between my father and the chairman.




-I hit you today because you didn't listen to me. It looks like you're badly hurt.


-If you don't listen, you'll get beaten, of course. It's okay.





-Video (video of the female protagonist and the wolf together and the chairman shooting the wolf)


-You brought a wolf. Your shooting skills are amazing. ^^


I believed the message was a lie.


But in that small room, I thought about what had happened with my father.


When you first picked me up, you said I resembled someone...


Could it be that the father really didn't know that the chairman, who everyone knows, had no children?


Is it really true that he didn't put me on the family register because he wanted to leave no trace when he abandoned me?


I wanted to think that everything was a coincidence


My father's expression gave a very firm answer.


"Really... you knew everything... you were using me..."


"Yeah, you're right. You should be grateful that you were able to grow up in our house, even if only for a little while. If it weren't for me, you would have been kicked out and ended up homeless."


"I'll give you a little money when I send you off, so do your best until the end."


"It's really...really disgusting... My father is really...disgusting, I think I'm going to throw up..."


I stared at my father with eyes full of tears until the very end.


Then my father's hand flew towards my face.


match!!!


"Wow..!"


"How dare you do this...!!!"


He stopped himself from hitting me again, sighed deeply, and left.


As I heard the door close and the front door closed, an indescribable emotion came over me.


"AAAAAHH ...


"Ugh...ugh...sob..."


"Why...why...why!!!!!! Why...me!! Why!!!!"


I really don't want to live anymore


Would things be different if my brother were here now?


I took a bottle of wine out of my father's wine fridge in the study.


I found a bottle of medicine and picked up some sleeping pills.


And then I fell into a deep sleep



I wanted to fall into a deep sleep without waking up.
