Kapitel 47: Get Back To Us
Eunica was browsing the books in her room when Denver and Lily ran inside. They were holding crayons and papers with wide smiles on their faces.
"Sis! Let's draw!" Lily said and put the papers on the floor, "Come here!" she said and went to pull Eunica.
Denver sits on the floor and prepared his art materials, "We always do this when we're bored."
"Really? This is great, I'll draw some too," Eunica smiled and sits beside Denver and took the red crayon and started thinking of what to draw.
Lily laid on her stomach and took the yellow crayon and started drawing the sun on the upper left corner of the paper.
Denver took the blue crayon and drew lines to create a robot.
They were all enjoying their artistic times when Maid Marga rushed inside with a bothered face, "Miss!" she called and stared at Eunica, "Your father's requesting your presence."
Denver and Lily stopped drawing and stared at their sister's nervous expression.
"Why?" Eunica asks as she stands up, "He's already home?"
Maid Marga nodded, "Yes, Miss. The moment he stepped inside, he called your name."
Lily stands up and held her sister's hand, "Are you going to be okay? Do you need me to go with you, Sis?" she asks with her soft and small voice.
Denver worriedly looks at Eunica, "He never calls anyone except when they do something bad."
Eunica gulps, "I'm going to be okay. Continue drawing, I'll finish mine when I come back." She bends her knees and pats Lily's head, "Thank you, Li. Finish your drawing."
Lily nodded, "Okay!"
Denver sighs, "Tell us what Papa will tell you, okay?"
Eunica nodded, "Yes," she said and was about to go out when she felt her phone in her pocket, "Den, can you hold this for me? Father might get angry when he sees me holding this."
Denver took the phone and smiled, "Okay."
Maid Marga opens the door widely for Eunica, "Be careful. Don't do anything reckless," she said.
Eunica nodded, "I can handle whatever he throws. Thank you."
The moment she stands in front of her father's office, she can feel a kin-peeling cold air coming from the room. Her heart started racing fast, she did only two things that can make her father call her. It's when Jin and Luke came and the second is when she bought him a phone.
"Come in," Eunica heard his father's low and heavy voice call her. She didn't even make a sound. How did he found out she's there?
She reached for the doorknob and turned it. She slowly opened the door and saw her father sitting on his desk chair with his hands intertwined on top of the table.
"What are you doing? Come in."
Eunica felt the hair on her neck raise. Her father looked threatening enough for her to almost freeze. His sharp eyes are almost piercing her chest.
She gathered all her strength and went inside. "Why did you call me?" She asks.
Now that she's in his office, she noticed how neat everything is. The books and files are organized. He's a messy person when it comes to his things. It was Laika who always organizes his mess but even though she does it, he will always end up messing it again. The room is also gloomy and a bit dark. He doesn't like dark rooms, he loves to funky things- colorful things, bright, and happy place.
'Is it the maids?' she thought but her father caught her attention. Now that she thinks about it, he's totally different. A complete opposite of who he is.
Raye sighed, "You're keeping something from your father, Eunica."
Eunica stands in front of him. She took a deep breath and frowned, "What do you mean father?" she said in a shaky voice.
Raye smirked, " With such a shaky voice, you're still trying to cover your sin?"
"Sin?" Eunica gasped, "I only bought a phone!" she said. The only excuse she can use now is buying a gadget she doesn't have. Not until he says what she did, she won't spill anything.
Raye chuckled, "How amazing. My daughter knows how to lie using the truth. Did you forget that you used my money to buy one?"
Eunica internally screamed, she forgot. She was thinking about Jin's phone being a secret purchase using Den and Li's money.
"I thought it was a secret. Aside from that, I am not keeping anything else," Eunica composed herself and stared directly into her father's eyes.
It looks blank. She can't even see that he's annoyed or angry. He looks numb-- no, he looks troubled.
"Father---" Eunica was about to ask about her father's feelings when he suddenly stands up and slam the table.
"YOU DARE KEEP THINGS FROM YOUR FATHER?" He screamed.
Eunica paused, his voice almost deafened her ears,
"There were two people who went here just after you arrived, Eunica. Who are they? Why did they follow you? What were you doing? Are you planning to go against us? Against Luinn?"
Slowly, Eunica felt her hands shake from her father's loud voice. It somehow reminded her when Sore beat her to death.
"EUNICA!" He screamed once again when Eunica didn't respond.
She flinched when she heard her name, "I don't know what you're saying, Father," she said in a low voice.
Raye shakes his head, "Forget it. You'll learn your lesson," he said and turned around, facing the window, "Sarin, do what you need to do."
From the shadows, a man steps out. Eunica's eyes went huge. It's Rin.
Rin looks much mature, he's gotten muscular. Much handsome than he was. He looked blankly at her at first which made her nervous but after a few seconds, he smiled at her.
She was about to smile back when her father faced her again, "Not until you tell me who went here, I won't let you go. Sarin, do what you have to do."
Eunica wrinkled her brows, how can her father forget Sarin? Does he know that he's working for SINS? Why is he here? He suddenly disappeared in the SINS and how he's here.
Rin steps towards her and aggressively holds her hand, making her wince, "Just go with the flow," he whispered as he drags her towards a door in the office.
"What are you doing? Where are you taking me?" Eunica pretended to be afraid and confused as Rin opens the door, "Father?" she looked back at her father but he's just staring outside the window like he's lost.
Rin opened the door and pushes her inside.
The room has tons of torture tools but what caught her eyes was the chair and floor stained with blood.
"What is this?" her voice was faint, she remembered about Drigo punishing those who don't follow her father and Luinn.
"Rin?" she whispered when Rin closed the door, he turned to her and sighed.
"I was so worried about you," he said and threw his arms around her, "I followed Luinn and became your father's personal guard. It was hard to go undercover. But..." Rin looks at Eunica and furrowed his brows, "Mr. Raye doesn't remember me. I just stay with him when Drigo or Luinn's not around, so I don't know what is happening."
"Right? I just noticed that he's weird. But what is happening? What did he found out?" Eunica asks as her eyes linger around the room, looking at knives and other tools to torture.
"I don't know exactly. He just went out of Luinn's office and when he got home, he called for you. All I have to do is hurt you," Rin's voice slowly fainted. He can't possibly hurt Eunica.
Eunica's face stiffened. How can she let herself get hurt? But the moment she saw Rin's guilt building up, she breathes deeply. He already did too much for her, for SINS. She knows that if he won't do what he's ordered to, Drigo or Luinn might come after him.
She held Rin's arms, "Don't worry. I can handle it. We're almost done, Rin. We can save the SINS and the hybrids. I've been through worse," Eunica said as she remembered Sore.
They suddenly heard footsteps outside. Rin immediately made Eunica sit down in the chair and tied her hand, "Hold on," he whispered and rested his forehead on her head.
"Why is it quiet?" Raye asks as he opens the door.
Eunica looked straight into her father's eyes, if there's one thing he can't resist, it's her tears. If she cries right now, he'll free her. If not, he's not her father.
She gathered up all her pain, fatigue, sadness and anger while Rin readies the tool he'll need while his hands are shaking.
Eunica bit her lip, "Father..." she whispered, "Papa, help me. Please," a tear rolled down her cheek.
Raye flinched but he's still standing like a statue. When Eunica saw his reaction, she cried harder.
"Papa! Please! Don't do this!" she screamed.
Raye raises his hand to reach Eunica but he paused, "Rin, make her shut up. Her voice is irritating," he said and turned his back.
Eunica stopped crying. Her eyes were looking at her father with anger. He's not her father.
Rin then pulls the cords to electrify Eunica. Among the tools, this won't hurt her for a long time, unlike knives and ax.
"Marga, someone's calling Sis. It's Jin," Denver said while looking at Eunica's vibrating phone.
Maid Marga pulled a paper and written: "Answer it. Tell him that Eunica might be in danger."
Denver nodded and accepted the call.
"Eunica, are you okay?" Jin worriedly immediately asked, "I just had this feeling. It's weird. I'm sorry if I disturbed you, but are you alright?"
Denver furrowed, "Why? What did you feel? Are you hungry? Sis is not here."
Jin paused for a minute, "Who... is this?"
Maid Marga chuckles and gestured Denver to answer Jin.
"I'm Denver, I'm sis' boyfriend," Denver proudly answers.
Lily stops drawing and went near Denver and began disturbing him, "Who's that? Who's that, Den? Who are you, big bro?" she asks.
Jin laughed, "I see. Nice to meet you, but where's Eunica. Can I talk to her?"
"Papa called her," Denver said and looks at Maid Marga worriedly, she hasn't come back. It's been a couple of hours since she went to meet their father. "He never calls anyone unless he has to punish them."
"What?" Jin's voice raised which made Denver pull the phone away from his ear, "Where is she? What happened?"
Denver heard Jin began talking to some people about Eunica's status.
"Big bro, she's in danger...can you--" Denver cut his words the moment Eunica appeared in the door with a bandage around on her arms. A guard was helping her get inside.
"Sis!" Lily stands up and ran to Eunica.
"Who's that?" Eunica asked and winced when Lily hugged her tightly.
"Jin," Denver answered shortly, he already knew what happened to her sister. She was tortured.
Eunica immediately took the phone, "Hey Jin," she greeted.
Maid Marga took the papers and crayons, "Come on, children. Let your sister rest. She's alright, come on," she softly said as she pushes Denver to go out of the room.
"Eunica, are you alright? What happened? I'll go there right now!" Jin panicked but Luke and the others stopped him from going away.
Eunica giggled hearing them fight over the phone, but her wounds and her body ache badly. Every time she breathes it feels like her skin's being peeled. She lays on her bed slowly and carefully.
Hearing Jin's voice made it somehow less painful. "Jin..." she called.
"Yeah? What is it? Do I have to go there? What happened, Eunica. Please, tell me you're alright."
Eunica closed her eyes, "Yes. I am alright. Don't worry, as long as we finish this, I'll be alright."
After getting electrocuted, she still didn't spill a word about Jin and the others. Rin continued electrocuting her until Raye made him stop which made Eunica thought that it's done. But Raye then began beating her. He used a piece of wood and beat her.
It made her cry hard, but it was not her body that was painful. It was her chest. Seeing her father blankly beat her made her puke to death. He got tired and let her go. But tomorrow, she'll be tortured once again until she tells them who went to the mansion.
"Jin... I love you," she whispered as she slowly began getting dizzy. She knows she'll pass out. "Bye," she said and turned the call off before she lost her conciousness.
"Eunica? Eunica!" Jin felt his whole body get cold, "Eunica?"
"What happened?" Luke asks.
Jin stares at his phone. Eunica turned the call off. Her last words weren't clear. It was too faint to be heard. He tried to call her back but she won't answer.
"We have to finish this fast. She needs me. Please," Jin begged while looking at Rio.
"Don't worry, tomorrow, the government's decision will come out. If they decide to inspect SINS, we can take the hybrids out and Eunica can get back to us."
