I woke up and sat up in bed. I wiped my eyes clean and looked at the full body mirror on the right side or my bed, next to the dresser. I get closer and closely examine my face. I notice deep bags under my eyes along with puffiness and redness from crying last night until I fell asleep. 

I go back and sit on my bed. I stare at the door and am motionless for an hour. I remained motionless and jumped a bit when the door opened. I stared at Sehun emotionless.

"Breakfast." He said then exited my room.

My existence was breathing, sleeping, eating, and repeat. I felt like a caged up animal. My skin began to break out and my bags got worse. I didn't bother to brush my hair anymore. I didn't care about my body anymore. Living this crappy excuse for a life made me want to die, but of course I couldn't. I couldn't endure all the pain and suffering that came after death.

One morning as I ate like every other morning, something changed. Sehun spoke to me for the first time in weeks. 

" You look like you're close to death."

I blinked and stared at him.

"I know I possessed you, but my purpose for you is not to die. I need to you for later. Take care of yourself."

"So after you use me, you'll kill me and torture me for eternity?" 

" No"

"No? Then what will happen to me when you don't need me anymore?" I was beginning to get mad.

"That's up to you. You could leave or stay."

"What is it that you need of me?"

"Well, you see. You didn't commit suicide on your own free will. Your parents sent me to posses you to kill yourself. But you see, they haven't paid back with their souls. They have a very powerful demon protecting them and I need you to get close to it to get the souls I was promised."

I slammed the fork I was holding on the table. "T-they what?"

I was crying now. More than I ever did in all the weeks I've been here. 

"I'm sorry."

For the first time I've seen him concerned.

"We'll get revenge together." He smiled at me and what I didn't expect to ever happen, happened. He hugged me. A demon hugged me. And it was the warmest hug I've ever had. The only one.
