'Despair' Mina X Male Reader

Chapter 12

Soyeon's POV

As I rush into the kitchen, a crash of ceramic sounds around the room as I slide the dishes into the sink. I run the tap and then open my phone to read the texts.

How many messages did he need to send? I don't even know what to do. An overwhelming migraine builds in my head as I read over the messages.

+82-165-5531-866: Sorry I couldn't reply. I will let you know tomorrow.

I plant my phone down and turn back to the sink, which has soon filled to the top with water to the point where it would overflow if I hadn't turned it off any sooner. After washing all the dishes and laying them on the draining board, I take my phone back off the counter and make my way to the bedroom.

As I sit on the bed, my head naturally sinks into the palms of my hands. An intense vibration suddenly startles me. Anxiously, I look at what has been sent.

+82-115-5545-580: Ok, I can come pick you up if it's easier.

+82-165-5531-866: No. Please don't.

+82-115-5545-580: Oh, ok. I just thought it might be easier for you.

Narrator's POV

As Soyeon reads the message, it triggers her mind as she begins to lose herself in a spiral of dark thoughts and memories. She collapses onto the bed and becomes frozen in a possessed like manner. Desperately, she clinches at the bed sheets as the migraine builds. The same nightmare like images return as she is trapped again.

Flashback to Soyeon with her ex boyfriend

(Soyeon) "Tae-o please just stop the car!"

Soyeon's panic reflects in her quivering screams as Tae-o speeds down the street. As she desperately shouts to him, his eyes are fixed on the road.

(Soyeon) "Tae-o! Please stop!"

Her screams are a mere whisper under the violent sound of the roaring car engine.

(Soyeon) "We're going to crash!"

As Tae-o continues to speed, it becomes clear he has lost focus. Beeps from car horns as drivers try to avoid your car are constant. On the spur of the moment, Soyeon checks her wing mirror for any cars behind, upon seeing the road is clear she tightens her seatbelt then pulls at the gear stick, shifting the car all the way from 5th gear to reverse. Immediately, the gearbox screeches and the car begins to slow and weave. Unaware of what is happening,
Tae-o spins the car out of control which leads to the anticipated halt and jerk as the car stops.

(Tae-o) "What do you think you're doing?!"

(Soyeon) "You're out if control!"

Infuriated by Soyeon's audacity to talk back, he faces her and with a look if pure rage, his fist connects with the left side of her jaw sending the right side of her head into the passenger side window causing a loud bang. Once again, he wasn't finished. He snatches at her messy hair and pulls her towards him, using his left arm to grasp at her arm which instantly leaves a red mark. Then, he slides his hand from her hair onto her neck and squeezes making her pull back and hit the back of her head on the window once more but somehow manages to escape his hold.
