บท 49: In a distant place

In a corner of the dimly lit room, Anzu, Yuki, and Mei sat side by side, their breaths shaky and their bodies tense. They wore blindfolds, and each of them could feel the fear gripping their hearts. All three of them were wondering how their little tour to a friendly coffee shop ended up in a distant place like this with their lives in danger.

Yuki's voice cracked as she mumbled, "We… we should've just done what Ryo said. *Sobs, What are we going to do now? If they harm us? I can't... *Sobs, I don't want to..."

Their limbs and hands were not tied, but they didn't know where they could move and knew one single wrong move and they would end up on the television as dead bodies.

Anzu, barely holding back her own tears, whispered, "Yuki, it's… it's okay. We'll find a way out of this."
