Chapter 9：Back 2 Square 1

I try to open my eyes despite the fact that my eyelids felt super heavy. The smell of chloroform was still lurking in my head. Everything around me looked blurry. Slowly everything started to come in focus. I move my hands to feel my head and rub my eyes. I was not tied. Well, that's a good sign then. At least I will be able to run away.

"You won't be able to run away, Night. Or should I call you Jiang?"

My eyes jerk open upon hearing his voice. He was sat right in front of me. It looked like an airline seat. Wait. Airline seat? We are on a plane! I quickly look around my surroundings. We were in his private plane. How could this be possible? Where are we going? No. No, I can't go back to the past.

"What the heck do you think you are doing, you jerk? This is damn kidnapping!" I try to get up and run towards him to punch but the seatbelt and my head both stop my action. My eyes start seeing blurry again and my head felt dizzy.

"Don't about kidnapping with me Jiang. You were the one who started it all. The game began with you and it will end with me." He holds up a glass of wine and walks over to me.

"You won't get away with this, Yong." I look up at his face.

He bends down and starts smiling at my face.

"I think I already did, Jiang." He holds the glass of wine above my head and soon I start feeling cold liquid travelling through my head and onto my face. I look up at his face. His cold dark victory smile that made my anger boil. I have to bear with this. I can do this.

"What about those members that appeared at my house? Where they involved in this?" I clench my fist and could feel my own nails bitting in my skin.

"How old do you think you are, Jiang?" I look up at his face, questioning him.

"Did you really think those idols will appear just like that? We live in an advanced world. Of course, they were my underlying pretending to be those idols that you watched every single day."

"What do you mean?" What does he mean? Why is this super confusing.

"Did you never find anything strange? I will tell you the secret Jiang. They just wore masks and acted in front of you. I thought you were better than this but I guess not."

I think back to all those moments. That's right. The members were all wearing similar clothes but this doesn't make sense. I know the world is advanced but their voices didn't match. Those voices that were different. There is no way it belonged to just one person. I should have known from the start. It was all too fake to be real. Why did I fall for all this? I thought I was strong.

"Get changed. I hate this whimpering side of you. Bring the air-hostess here to help her." At his command, one of the men exists and comes back with a young lady.

"If you hate me and this side of me than why did you bother finding me? Why can't you leave me alone?" I shout at him. Everything that I have been holding back pours out of me.

He raises his hand and slaps me. I am almost thrown at the side from the impact. He grabs my hair and pulls them from above.

"Don't think highly of yourself. We will be reaching Hong Kong soon. Get changed!"

I could feel tears dripping down my eyes. Why did I end up being this way?

Love is a trap. Once you fall into that trap, you won't be able to escape.
