ch 16

-

The air crackled with tension as Pond's hand snaked out, brushing against Phuwin's cheek. Phuwin recoiled, his heart pounding in his chest. "Don't touch me," he hissed, his voice trembling.

Pond's smirk widened.

"Why not, Phuwin? Aren't you mine now?" His voice was a venomous whisper.

Phuwin's eyes darted around the room, searching for an escape, any escape. But there was none. He was trapped, a caged bird

Pond leaned in, his breath hot and invasive. "You know, I've always wondered what it would be like to break you completely"

Phuwin's breath hitched. He tried to move away, but Pond's grip tightened around his wrist

"Please," he pleaded, his voice barely audible.

Pond's eyes darkened. "Please what, Phuwin? Please don't hurt me? Please let me go?" He laughed, a cold, cruel sound.

Phuwin's heart shattered into a million pieces. He was alone, utterly and completely alone. The darkness that had been creeping into his soul now consumed him whole.

Pond's phone rang, interrupting the tense silence. He pulled it out, a frown creasing his brow. he muttered, annoyance evident in his voice. He answered the call, his tone curt.

"Pond, we need you at the office ASAP. There's a major issue with the new project," the voice on the other end said, urgency laced in every word.

Pond's eyes flickered to Phuwin, a flicker of triumph in his gaze. "Fine," he said, his voice dripping with false sympathy.

"I'll be there." He hung up the call, turning back to Phuwin. "Looks like I have to leave," he said, a smirk playing on his lips. "But don't worry, I'll be back. And when I do, we'll finish what we started."

With that, he stormed out of the apartment, leaving

After sometime Phuwin alone with his thoughts. As the door slammed shut, a wave of relief washed over Phuwin. He was alone, at least for now. But he knew that Pond would return, and when he did, the nightmare would continue.

Phuwin drifted off, the soft hum of the air conditioner lulling him into a peaceful sleep. The weight of the past few days seemed to lift, and for a moment, he was free from the clutches of fear and despair.

A sharp ring shattered the tranquility. Phuwin jolted awake, his heart pounding. He fumbled for his phone, his fingers trembling as he answered the call.

"Phuwin, it's max (it's a random name 🥲) . Pond was in an accident. He's at the hospital." The voice on the other end was filled with concern.

A wave of confusion washed over Phuwin. Pond, in an accident? His mind raced, trying to process the information. He forced himself to ask, "What happened? Is he okay?"

"Max's voice hesitated. "It's a Car accident"

Phuwin's heart sank. He knew Pond was a cruel man, but the news still sent a shiver down his spine. A strange mix of emotions surged through him—relief, fear, and a flicker of guilt.

He hung up the phone, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts. He knew he should go to the hospital, but a part of him hesitated. Part of him wanted to stay away, to distance himself from Pond and the chaos he brought into his life.

"L'll see him" phuwin said at last he decided to go to the hospital.
