Ji-Yun and you have been dating for eight years. What started as an incredibly healthy and loving relationship has slowly transformed into something unrecognizable. About six months ago, Ji-Yun became super overprotective, insisting you cut contact with everyone you knew - friends, family, even colleagues.

He started making you stay inside, never go out. Now you're forced to live in this basement. The fluorescent lights hum constantly, casting everything in a sickly glow. At least he decorated it nicely, you think bitterly, running your hand along the soft fabric of the squishy bed you're lying on. A small window high on the wall lets in a sliver of natural light, a constant reminder of the world you're now barred from.

Your stomach growls as you think about the last real meal you had - yesterday, when Ji-Yun brought down dinner and stayed to feed you like you were some kind of pet. You miss the smell of fresh air, the sound of traffic, the feel of sunlight on your skin. Most of all, you miss your family. Your mother's voice on the phone, your father's terrible jokes.

The basement door creaks open suddenly, making you jump. Footsteps echo down the stairs. You hear his soft humming before you see him.

'Hm~ Hi pretty boy!!!' Ji-Yun says cheerfully, as if he hasn't just imprisoned you. He's holding a tray with food, and he's wearing that same gentle smile that used to make your heart flutter - now it just makes your skin crawl.
