-present day-
I had just arrived in South Korea last week. It's been hectic seeing as how I'm from a different country and I just learned how to speak the language last year. I moved here to find my brother, it's been over a decade since I last saw him so I know he's not going to look the same as he did 10 years ago, but I'm still determined to find him and ask him everything I need to know.
I decided to walk around the city to get a feel for the place, I looked up places to go for newcomers but nothing showed up so I just decided to walk around. As I was walking around I noticed a restaurant that was down an alleyway. it looked like a normal restaurant, besides all the creepy old dudes. I just ignored them and sat myself down while I waited for the waiter. "what would you like to drink?" The waiter said as he was waiting to write down what I wanted.
I ordered my drink and eventually, He came back with my drink. "thank you" I said to the young-looking boy. He looked to be around my age or about a year younger. "Would you like anything to eat?", "Yes please." He took down my order and came back a few minutes later. "Thank you again", "You are very welcome". He bowed and walked away to the back of the kitchen.
After about an hour I finished eating and got up to leave. I walked to the front and paid the bill which came out to be about $50.00. I walked out of the building being greeted by the loud sound of cars honking and people walking all around me. I started to walk away from the building when I felt a presence following me. I was getting freaked out as I continued to feel the presence but I didn't show it and pretended to not notice it. I walked into one of the shops hoping it would go away but it was still there.
I pretended to look at the clothes and I even bought some just hoping that the person would go away. why was he after me? I had no idea. I walked out of the store only to feel the presence following me again. Looking back quickly I saw it was one of the guys from the restaurant, he was in his early 40s just about and wasn't very built. I quickly walked into another shop and went to the front desk.
I grabbed my phone out of my pocket and quickly called 911. "Hello, 911, what's your Emergency?" "Hi, I think there's someone following me. He's around 40, about 6ft tall, not very built, and was wearing all black with a ball cap so I couldn't see his face correctly." There was silence on the other end. "Where are you at?" Before I got to tell them, I felt my phone getting ripped out of my hand and thrown on the ground, making it shatter. In surprise, I looked over at the cashier and saw that she was passed out on the floor. I turned around only to be met by the same man who was following me earlier.
He had taken out a rag and covers my mouth with it. Knowing what it was I held my breath for as long as I could, but when It became unbearable I took a deep breath, only to move met with dizziness and blurry vision, and soon blacked out.

I woke up only to see more girls around my age in a small room. all looking scared and vulnerable. soon I realized what was going on. I was about to be sold. I didn't want that to happen so I started to Fight the ropes. "I wouldn't do that." one of the girls said. she was the same girl that had been knocked out on the floor at the shop. I just ignored her and stopped what I was doing. I thought It would be better to just not make any friends since I wasn't going to see any of them ever again anyways.
I ignored everyone's screaming and crying while I, myself, was trying to keep it all together. After what felt like forever more girls came in but this time the guys that brought them also came with dresses. They gave each of us one, "Put these on". Mine was a long skin-tight red dress that had a large slit on the side of it. I put it on after they undid the ropes and cooperated with them. It definitely wasn't the type of dress I would wear. They put numbers on us and called us out 5 at a time. There were about 25 of us and I was number 25.
They called out the last number of people so we all got escorted onto the stage and got sat down in the chairs that they had. There were tons of people in the audience. It made me sick to my stomach knowing that people did this, it was inhumane and just plain wrong.
They all started to bid on each girl. I was last. They started to all bid over me and when they finally reached the amount they thought I was worth I was sold. The price I was sold for was around $100,000. They pushed me off the stage and into the car of the guy who bought me. The guy was also sitting in the back seat. He was a guy in his late 20's early 30's he also had tattoos and was built, "What are you looking at?". I quickly looked away and scoffed.
"What? Why are you scoffing, huh?" He said getting closer and closer. I looked him up and down and just chucked. "What?" I could tell he was getting angry but I still decided to keep my mouth shut and look out the window. "Look at me." He harshly grabbed my chin making me look at him. "Why are you scoffing?" I rolled my eyes and harshly pulled my head away from his hands. "I'm scoffing at you. You people disgust me. Choosing what people are worth, human trafficking, everything that you people do. I hate it." He slapped me. My cheek started to hurt like crazy but I was used to it because of my father.
He put another rag on my mouth and realized that it was the same substance that knocked me out last time. Chloroform. This time I didn't fight back and eventually passed out.
When I woke up It was still dark outside and was In a strange room that I didn't recognize. I started to chuckle. Only a week into living in Seoul and I was already being sold to mafias and business owners. The same guy I had seen in the car was now in the same room as me. "Where am I? Why am I even here?" He pushed me onto the bed now hovering over me.
"You're in my room princess."
He started to lean into my face, "What's your name?" I asked him, "my name? It's Jay Park babe. But you can call me Master." I laughed, "In your dreams asshole!". I spit in his face. He became angry because he then went to slap me but got interrupted by one of the guards, "Boss the house is under attack." The guard said with visible fear. "By who?" Jay Park said getting off of the bed to face the guard. "Stray Kids"
