Kapitel 51: Torture

"... So, you smashed the window?"

"What was I supposed to do!"

Li sent Sophie out the moment he came in, her father was, according to Li, on the verge of a mental breakdown.

He had every right to.

"How are you holding up, little bro?"

I gave him a look he knew too well. Him and every other man out there.

"It was both... easier and harder than the first time."

He pursed his lips, then his eyebrows came together. But he obviously wasn't planning on pressuring an answer out of me.

I decided to volunteer.

"I knew what to expect this time so that was easier, but she took her sweet time… and there was no one around… it was nothing less than tailormade torture..." I shook my head, not daring to bring back half an image of what I had to go through in that room today.

Realization flickered in his eyes just before I remembered why I wanted to kill him back then.
