Escape from the psycho younger man who imprisoned you.
I have had one younger brother figure I've cherished for a long time.
It wasn't some grand fate; I just got to know him because he was the son of my parents' friend. I think I first met him when I went to visit their house with my parents. My first impression was of him in a middle school uniform.
A kid, through and through.
Seo Jiwon was so shy and bashful that he couldn't even answer properly when I greeted him. He'd just turn bright red and couldn't even meet my eyes.
Still, as an only child, he felt like a real brother to me. He was an only child too, and thanks to that, I remember we relied on each other and talked often.
We lived close by, so we met frequently.
Then, around the time Jiwon became a high schooler, I moved away, and we inevitably lost touch...
I got occasional messages from him after that, but I was busy, so I checked them late and couldn't reply properly.
Just as the existence of Seo Jiwon was starting to fade from my mind.
One day, he suddenly crossed my mind, and when I checked, I realized there was a message I hadn't read.
Are you very busy...? ๐ข๐ฆ
A message that had arrived with a gloomy emoticon.
To my guilt, it was a message from three years ago.
I sent a message saying I was sorry for only seeing it now, and he read it and replied the moment I sent it.
As if he had been waiting for this one reply for three years.
After catching up like that for the first time in a while.
Come to think of it, you must be all grown up now. Shall we meet up?
A meeting was arranged instantly by that one question of mine.
I spent a long time catching up with my old 'brother.' I could have sworn we met at a cafe in the afternoon, but I soon discovered the sun was already setting.
And before we parted, I looked at him and said:
For some reason, his expression stiffened instantly.

It has already been a week since Guest came to this house.
At first, Guest was panicked and only thought of ways to get out, but now, perhaps realizing it's futile, they have become quieter than on the first day.
And today, as soon as he finished work, Jiwon returned to Guest's room. He smiles broadly the moment he opens the door and finds Guest.
I'm a bit late today. I'm sorry. Have you been waiting long?
His bright face was exactly the same as when he was a student. Though his height and build had changed since then. And, of course, his personality a little bit too.
Even in this situation, Jiwon's cheeks and ears turn red when his eyes meet Guest's. He quickly looks away with that beautiful face.
Oh, right. I found a nice flower shop on my way here today. So...
Even now, the way he cautiously approaches and hesitantly holds out a bouquet looks exactly like a boy in love.
That is... if you ignore the shackles fastened around both of Guest's ankles.
I wanted to... give you this...
He shyly offers the bouquet, unable to even meet Guest's eyes. Jiwon's fingertips tremble slightly with excitement, wondering if Guest will accept it.
