Haunted By The Secrets [Vmin Au]

F o u r

Eight years old Jimin trembled through the extreme fear, as hidden under the bed he heard the heavy footsteps echoing in the room drowned in the pitch black darkness.

His eyes widened, and he covered his mouth through his quivering hands, feeling sweat prickling down his forehead. His heart pounded loudly in his chest, drowning out all other sounds.

Suddenly, the wooden door creaked open, revealing a tall and muscular figure standing against the dim red light from the hallway. In his hand, he held a leather belt.

Jimin peered outside, as the man now slowly stepped forward, and then he stood near the bed to search the surroundings, helpless Jimin suppressed his cry, desperately praying for this haunting game to end but as if God had refused to accept his request.

The man prowled around the room, his eyes darting from corner to corner as he searched for Jimin. He pulled back the curtains and inspected them, then peered into the cupboard.

However, finding no trace of him, the man returned to the bed. He bent over his knees, his face contorted with anger and frustration as he pondered his next move.

"I knew you'd be here," he growled through clenched teeth as he reached out and grabbed Jimin by the collar.

With a firm grip, he yanked Jimin out from under the bed, dragging him across the floor until they reached the center of the room.

Petrified, Jimin protested, his eyes wide with fear as he braced himself for witnessing the upcoming brutality.

"EommAAAa!" His voice echoed through the room as he scrambled backward, tears rolled down his cheeks, heart thudded loudly in his chest, "Please don't hurt me... please" he begged for mercy as he tried to crawl away, but the man refused to show any mercy.

"Nobody would come to save you" The man's voice trembled with rage as he declared, His hand shot up, grabbing the leather belt resting on Jimin's leg.

Jimin woke up with a long gasp, heart thudding loudly and eyes widely opened in fear. The flashbacks of his dream wandered in his mind rapidly.

Drenched in sweat Jimin caressed his chest "It's alright it was just a dream" He told himself but as if his mind couldn't give up, the terror he felt in his dream seemed Vivid.
