Luna the soothsayer

03 : you are a dead meat

I slowly regained my consciousness, my head feels throbbed with a dull ache .

I blinked my eyes open and found myself in a complete darkness , disoriented and groggy from the effects of the sedative.

My heart raced as I tried to make sense of my surroundings, desperately searching for any glimpse of light but
everywhere was totally dark .

with each passing moments , my determination to escape grew stronger , I noticed I was tied up on
a chair and I could not move my body.

" Why are you wasting your energy " I heard a hoarse voice behind me.

Suddenly a faint silhouette emerged
from the shadows. As my eyes gradually adjusted , I could make out
the figure of a man standing before
me.

His presence felt ominous, his features obscured by the darkness.

My heart race , unsure of his intentions.

" What do you want from me " I manage to voice out to him . But he chuckled lightly " park Luna the daughter of late mr park chin hyung
It's nice meeting you ".
I gasped slowly, I was astonished by how he knew my name and identity.

" Who is he "

" Did he know me before "

" Did he knew my parents "

These questions keep popping through my mind .

" Don't be confused Luna am here to help you " he said . I guess he noticed how nervous I was, definitely he meant no harm to me , if truly he wants to help . But I don't need anyone's help . So what is he trying to say , he walked more closer to me but I could not see him clearly because
everywhere was so dark .

He snapped his fingers . In an instant , a blinding flash of light illuminates the entire room as if someone had
flipped a switch.

I squinted my eyes , the moment the light was on, blinded by the brightness as I try to make out the
figure responsible for this sudden
burst of light.

The room is now bathed in a stark
glow , revealing the man who snapped his fingers , standing in front
of me with an enigmatic expression
on his face .

He was an old aged man in his late sixty's, he was on a black suit , his hair was white in color maybe because of his old age .

"who are you " I asked him but he did
not reply and he kept staring at me.

I was feeling uncomfortable with the
way his eyes was on me . I scanned the whole room and I noticed the place was a store house .

There was so many empty containers and gallons littered on the floor .
There was no windows and there is only one door that leads to the exit way .

" I didn't know Mr park has such a
pretty daughter " he said but I ignored
him .

" What do you want from me " I asked again . I was sick and tired of all these . If he doesn't really want to harm me then why was I tied up by him .

" Nothing much " he shrugged his shoulders and walked closer to me.

" Do you know who killed your parents" he asked me and my eyes widened in surprise.

" Why are you asking me such a question , do you know anything about their death " I asked him.

He smirk at me and squat before me
" Listen Luna , I know everything that
is happening in your life from the start to the end " he placed his hand on my hair to remove some strips of hair covering my face but I shook my head " don't touch me you bastard ' I cursed out at him and he withdraw his hand " am too old for that darling" he replied back at me and stood on his
feet .
