< epilogue >

Now that her daddy's company was also, almost mine.

I felt like I had everything in my hands.

I was being the true master to my every wish.

I had the throne.

In these following days, after a whole month was passed.

Everything was changed.

I was known for the best successful photographer of Dancon.

I was ruling over everything.

"No!! Andrew, believe me! I swear.

It was all forced!"

While roaming in my room casually holding my camera, I heard some voices from Marilyn's room. Which were clearly hitting my eardrums.

"You are loaded with hickeys! You whore!! You actually enjoyed that."

I watched Andrew slapping and hitting Marilyn so emotionlessly. He showed no mercy.

Why it was hurting me to see her like that?

Why it was pinching my heart?

Why it was all being so depressing for me to handle myself currently?

When she was being beaten by her boyfriend.

The curtains of both the windows were away.

Each of Andrew's hit was a stone that was throwing at me as I heard Marilyn's screams through the physical torture that he was giving her.

After few minutes, Andrew was gone as I watched her falling over the floor while she cried.

Soon, there was another figure that entered her room.

"You disappointed me, Marilyn!!"

It was now her father.

My boss.

"Dad, no!! I didn't do that on purpose.

No! Dad. Please!! No!"

My heart was aching to see her face those terrible kind of hells.

Everyone was doubting her. Because of me.

Suddenly, the door of my own apartment begun to hit by the knocks.

I rushed to see it.

"Jungkook!! Please help us!

Marilyn has locked herself in the room."

Her mother visited me and she was hell worried.

Her mother came to me but why?

Because she trusted me the most with Marilyn.

"What..."

My eyes were wide now as I quickly turned towards my window and saw the curtains covering her's.

"Come!"

I ran to Marilyn's house in my neighbor with her mother.

At first, I got welcomed by her vicious father. I had no time to waste on him.

Andrew was nowhere to be seen.

It was just being her mother who ran upstairs to her room and I followed.

"Marilyn! Marilyn! Open the door!"

I hit like a mad beast but there wasn't any response.

"Marilyn!!"

I screamed her name hitting my shoulder over the wooden door of her room.

It was locked from the other side.

"Stay back."

I warned her mother and got myself ready to break through the door.

"Jungkook, be careful."

Her mother told me.

I gave no fuck about my anything.

I wanted to pass through it and gain her.

See, what actually that she was doing inside.

With a final powerful blow, I made it by breaking through the door and right after entering inside.

I saw Marilyn.

All dead.

She hung herself up.

"No...

Ma-Marilyn!!"

It was me now, who let out a scream and panicked badly,

yet also breathed heavily.

The floor under my feet vanished,

it literally felt like that.

With wide eyes over her hung body, above the bed.

I lost balance on my feet and fell.

I lost everything.

The window of her room was shut.

Another scream was of her mother's.

Now I got to know why, I was being so affectionate to her.

Through this whole time I didn't realize that,

My everything was stuck in Marilyn.

My breaths were in her.

I destroyed her.

I killed her.

I murdered her.

"Marilyn."

Tears drained my eyes as my heart and brain was burning with the activities that I did with her.

And showed no mercy at all.

She was being so happy in her little life.

Along with her.

I fucked up her everything.

She was seriously so pure for this world.

She was so innocent.

She was truly angelic.

I was the one forced her to live her life my way.

Suicide was the best way that she thought to do.

I already made the air around her, hard for her to breath.

I made her suffocate even around her own comfort.

With that body all filled with hickeys, given to her by me.

The touch, with which that I assaulted her.

"Marilyn."

My breaths were hitching saying her name.

My mind was aching thinking those miseries that I did with her.

My heart was in trillion pieces.

I took the life of an innocent.

I still had her pictures.

Her videos.

Her everything.

I just wanted her but,

I never wanted to destroy her.

"Jungkook!!!"

I turned my head, holding my heavy tear drained eyes, towards the voice who called my name.

It was her father.

"What the fucking hell are you doing here?

What was your connection with her?"

He asked me the second question, pointing towards Marilyn's hung deadbody.

I suddenly felt like I was an infant and anybody can choke me as,

I gulped deeply and started to pant.

My throat went dry and I was sweating so non stop.

I didn't know, why suddenly everything around me was seeming so scary.

I was terrified.

With Marilyn, as if my strength was gone.

I forgot, I could rule her but not anyone else.

I forgot, I could threat her but not anyone else.

I forgot, I could be the devil but someday,

Things can take big turns.

I forgot that,

Not everytime, the throne remains yours.

"He used to study with Marilyn in her college. He's her junior. They were good friends."

Her mother held the arm of Marilyn's father and announced.

How can I forget the mere fact that Marilyn was also a daughter of this lady.

So sweet and enlightened.

In my madness....

In my totally senseless addiction....

In my evil yet cruel wishes and desires.....

I forgot everything.

"What??"

Her father spat in a bitter tone and I accepted that behavior of his.

I ate their daughter.

Alive.

I deserve this mad attitude.

I deserve this total hatred.

I deserve all that hell,

That I broke upon

Marilyn.

"Yes..."

Her innocent mother, who still was defending me unknowingly.

But now,

I couldn't take this much

more.

"No."

I made an interruption, shaking my head at Marilyn's parents as they both stared me in utter surprise.

I gathered all the strength to tell them the truth.

At first, I stuttered a lot but I had to speak up.

"I used to...

S-S-Stalk Marilyn.

Secretly.

Fr-From that window.

Everytime she changed and got cloth less.

I watched her."

I did rather another gulp and held my sweated hands together as my terrified orbs didn't lift after I said that.

Now I was hell afraid from their expecting rage.

"What!"

Her father gritted his teeth madly as he gained at me and I backed up.

The same fear that I built inside their daughter?

Was now gushing through my whole self.

I saw her mother holding him while he was so viciously screaming those vulgar swear words at me.

"What else did you do with her!!!"

Her father again shouted at me and I jumped over his loud voice.

"I-I can explai-"

"No!!! We don't need your explanations!"

I was unable to fight with their anger.

"The police will handle

with you now."

His words later.

Blew my mind.

I froze at my spot.

I lost everything.

For what purpose that

I was being here.

In what sensation that I got myself involved.

I could just turn back from that all, at the first place though I did hold the chances,

But I didn't.

The next day, I disclosed everything infront of the police and they sent me to jail.

My crime was equal to the crime of a murderer. Equal to a killer.

And I was told to death.

Truly.

I was the main reason for which,

Marilyn attempted the suicide.

If I didn't threaten her like that?

This all would never happen.

It wasn't that damn fucking window.

It was all me.

My dirt.

That unknowingly,

I kept on throwing

upon an innocent angel like

Marilyn.

I didn't know

that.....

Staring out that window?

Would be this dangerous.

It's not the others

who makes your life hell.

Sometimes,

It could be your own self.
