Ren can't do much to escape. When he asked questions, the crazy woman stuffed his mouth with his sock and covered his eyes with a blindfold. He can't even tell her that he has to pee. How long can he hold it? He doesn't want to soil his pants in front of a woman. Did no one notice that he's gone? Someone save him from this crazy hacker.
The night has passed without any attempt on her life. Nina grips the steering wheel. Should she go or not? Rie's phone isn't connecting. Where the hell did she go to? If Rie doesn't take her call, she has no choice.
She glares at Ren. If he's useless, she will kill him and dump his body in the dumpster.
Feeling her intense glare, Ren quivers in his seat. He presses his t.h.i.g.hs together and bends forward. At the moment, he's not afraid of death. His stomach is about to burst. She notices his strange actions. Why is he shaking like that?
A little worried, she pulls the sock out of his mouth. She needs him alive until she talks to Rie.
"Goddamnit Woman! I need to go to the restroom." Ren looks at her with his bloodshot eyes. "NOW!"
Nina widens her eyes. "Now?"
"YES!" Ren fists his hands and presses it on his crotch. His face is turning red. "Please... I beg you..."
"Hold it." Nina looks for something in the back of the car. "Is it pee or poop?"
"Does it matter?" He yells at her. When she doesn't reply, he mumbles in a soft voice, "Pee..."
She is scraping away the last of his dignity.
"There, it is." She finds the bottle. "Do it in this."
"You want me to do it in that?" He looks at her with disbelief. "The convenience store is right in the front. Let me go out now. I will beg them until they let me use it."
Seeing his desperation, Nina snorts. "I am not undoing the ropes. What if you run away?"
Ren swears in his head. He would kill his woman. First, he would take care of this emergency first.
He grinds his teeth. "I am not doing it here."
"Are you that shy?" Nina's lips curl up into a smile. "Do you want me to help you?"
He shakes his head. "Don't even think about it."
"Then, help yourself." She leans back, smirking.
"Get out of the car." He growls at her. Each moment is testing him. Why is he facing so many testing moments in the car? Each time, she's there.
"Just do it." She bats her eyes at him. "I want to see it."
"Is something wrong with your head?" Ren snaps at her. Why is he even bother asking? There's nothing right in that brain. "You delete my p.o.r.n and games. That wasn't enough. You kidnapped me too."
This guy complains so much. He's so shy. Nina clicks her tongue. "I am getting out. Take your time."
Nina steps out of the car. She doesn't look back. She adjusts her baseball cap. She walks to the convenience store. There are not many people around. There's a payphone outside the convenience store. She will try calling Rie again.
She inserts the coin and dials Rie's number. She was born with a photographic memory. She listens to the ringing. Rie cares about her friends and family. Rie will not abandon Ren. But then, she might not want to risk her family.
"Nina!"
Suddenly, a piercing pain spreads on her abdomen. She smacks the handset on the man's face. He grabs her wrist and hurls her to the ground. Nina hisses in pain. The man didn't cover his face. He's dressed in casual clothes. Something doesn't feel right. She covers her face and waits for her death when he raises his arm to strike her. The pain never comes.
Something warm splashes on her face. She blinks and looks up. There, he is. He's standing right in front of her with a half-filled bottle. The man sniffs himself before his face contorts in anger.
"If you take one step..." Ren points the bottle toward the man. "I will splash it all on you."
The man sees the store owner coming out. He glances at the surveillance camera once before he dashes away to his car. Ren's heart is beating hard. He inhales and exhales. What did he just do? Did he just survive?
"You are daring." Nina clenches her teeth. "To splash your pee on me, what were you thinking? I am into kinks, but not into the ones that leave me smelling like urine."
"I just saved your life," Ren yells back at her. "You are bleeding."
"What's going on here?" The middle-aged store widens his eyes when he sees the blood. "You are bleeding. Did this man hurt you?"
He takes a step back, looking at Ren with accusation.
"I hurt myself." Nina knows how ridiculous her excuse sounds. She presses her hand on the wound. She can tell the wound is shallow. The owner doesn't believe her and looks at Ren, suspicious of him.
She winces in pain and smiles at Ren. "Love, help me get up."
"We have to get you to the hospital." Ren comes to her side, helping her sit up. He turns his head toward the store owner. "Call an ambulance."
The store owner runs back inside to call the cops and an ambulance. Nina looks at Ren and laughs.
"Why are you laughing when you are hurt?" Ren frowns at her.
"Normally, people run away from their captors." She grins at him. "You came to save me with a bottle of urine."
"Don't talk." It's embarrassing for him too, but that's not the problem right now.
"If you are so kind, how about you take me away somewhere before the cops arrive?" Nina places her bloody hand on his c.h.e.s.t. "If the cops get me, I am dead."
