She had her hand against her chest to calm her heartbeat after Jungkook left. Her body felt weak as she slided down. She couldn't believe it was him who brought out of her panic attack. She felt her heart trying to rip the cage and jump out.

She closed her eyes telling herself that he is gone.

When her heartbeat went normal, she stood up. Her cheeks dried in tears. When she was on her feet, again a shocking fear held her eyes.

Her green orbs was again looking at the person because of whom she was terrified. She saw him stepping in again. Her eyes buldged out of her socket. She felt fear again lodging her body. But this time her consciousness steadied her and pulled her not pushing her into panic attack.

His dark brown orbs gazed at her with unknown emotions. She just stayed still but her entire body withered. Her darkbrown eyes looked directly into her green orbs.

"I..." he started and to be honest, he did not know how to start the conversation and how to manage the situation. His mind was in volcano. He was desperate to speak to her when she was lying unconscious now he couldn't pull words.

He wanted to apologize for his act yet an apology would be an understatement and he knows that. He would have left her alone but he have to face her anyways and he didn't want to run away from that. Afterall, he was the pathetic fucker who ruined her. He was gonna do it.

'Please' he whispered to himself looking at her hoping she would react bad.

"I am sorry" he finally broke his silence. His face deepened in sorrow and sadness. Guilt dripped his voice.

He was ashamed and disgusted.

Her eyes widened and stunned listening to his words but she didn't let her guard down.

"I am sorry. Please. I am so sorry. I know it won't make up for the things that I have commited. But I am so sorry. I know there is nothing that can ...." his words were stopped when he heard her voice.

"Divorce me" her eyes fell out of socket hearing her say those words. She stepped back immediately as a reflex that he would hurt her because of her words.

However he was stunned and flabbergasted hearing those two words from her.

"What?" He asked. His voice proving that he is in disbelief and hoping that he heard it wrong.

Fear wrapped her mind because of her immediate statement. It was the same mouth of hers that asked to end this marrage before this disaster happened. She was again going for it. Her eyes suffocated in tears and fright clutching her dress tightly.

She felt horrified on what he was going to do to her because of her words.

She saw the sorrow and sadness slowly fading away from his face which scared her to death. She saw how his face turned into a blank expression.

His dark brown eyes gazed straight upon her as her shaky green eyes trembled under his scrutinizing gaze. She just wanted to hide from him or close her eyes so that her sight would be black.

She couldn't even blink because of the terror.

"You have to kill me for that" his low voice broke the pin drop silence that creeped and frightened her.

"Kill me Layla. That is your only solution" he spoke with no emotions.

He stepped two steps forward making her hear jolt in extreme fear. He stopped. Her fearful eyes noticed his actions. She saw his hand moving behind his back. Next thing, he did made her visibly jump and low shriek left her mouth.

Her mouth agape and her body trembled badly with no control with her.

It was a revolver.

Her widened green eyes was not able to move away from the revolver. He threw it on the bed which landed seemly near her.

"Pick it up" he enuciated.

"Wh-a-tt?" Her voice stammered in nervous and anxiety.

"Shoot me and you'll get what you want" he spoke with staright voice. No tint of emotions dripped in his voice.

Her eyes looked back and forth.

How could she kill a person? She wasn't cruel like him. She wasn't savage like him.

Yet he was the monster who ruined her. Her devastation is because of him. He destroyed her. He broke her. This memory will haut her. The fear and anxiety thay she had inside her slowly turned into need and rage.

He was a monster, her mind screamed.

Freedom, her mind screamed another word which was the most longed word that she wanted to hear.

Come on. Her mind mocked her again to pick the gun and she did it.

She picked the gun. It was weight. It heavied than usual. Maybe it was heavier for her. Her weak and shaky fingers carried the gun and her eyes gazed at it. The black object turned to be a freedom infront of her eyes and that is what she wanted.

Her shivering hands pointed slowly towards her husband. The gun in her hand was unsteady andthe barrel was pointed towards his direction and he did not have a reaction.

Her finger moved towards the trigger. Her eyes filled with hot tears with her lips and chin quivering. Her lips trembled badly.

One movement and she will have what she wanted.

But is it truly what she want? Killing him? Even if she killed would she be able to live with that?

But the first and foremost question will be, can she do it?

She was stiffling and restraining her emotions. Her face showed everything how she was battling. She lowered the gun defeated.

She will never be able to kill him.

She has to live like this.

Suddenly, the one thing that mattered to her rung in her head.

She wanted to die.

It has to be either him or her.

She can't kill him but she can do it the other way.

Taking a deep breath, she raised the gun in her hand, pressed it against temple. She was gonna escape this sick reality. She was going to see her parents. She was gonna end this. Finally, she was getting a reaction from Jungkook.

But it was late.

She pressed the trigger.

Yet, nothing happened.
