This story contains violence, murder, suicide and blood

"Yes, I know. It belongs to Momo jjang."

Momo looked at Jihyo betrayed. Momo knew it wasn't her. Momo knew very well who it was. Momo knew that Jihyo knew who it was. Yet jihyo betrayed her unnie.

"So it's like that, huh? You're gonna betray me?"

Momo said no more as she got handcuffed and lead to prison. They would keep her captive until they found out who the true guilty person was. A tear rolled down Jihyo's cheek as she held the bracelet the police had given her. It was a red friendship bracelet. It had the word "Room" written on it. The police probably didn't notice, Jihyo thought. Someone had the other matching bracelet. And Jihyo knew who that someone was. She knew better than anyone else.

It was none other than herself.

Jihyo had threw that bracelet away years ago. Before she debuted with TWICE. The guilt was too much for her to keep...

Years ago, when Momo and Jihyo were trainees...

Both girls were sixteen years old. They shared a dorm and were best friends at the time. However, as perfect as their friendship and trainee life was, they were still teens and made mistakes.

Some mistakes were too big to be referred to...

Momo had always been a good girl. She had always been following the rules and being respective. However, what was to come was not applying to Momo's personality.

One day, Jihyo came across an ad. It was just a red ment box, nothing written on it. Just red. Jihyo had always been rather inquisitive so she couldn't help but click on it. Her whole screen turned red. However, Jihyo didn't seem hypnotized. She seemed to be immune to the red room...

"Hey Momo, what is that?"

Momo looked at Jihyo's screen. She tilted her head in confusion.

"Whatever it is, it's weird."

Soon the screen changed and took them to a dark website. Jihyo started reading what it was saying.

"Welcome to the red room."

Both Jihyo and Momo read out loud together. They exchanged looks of fear and anxiety as they looked back at the screen.

"I-is this the r-red room?"

"Yes.."

"The r-real o-one?"

"Looks like it."

The two girls kept reading what the website said. They once read an article about it. Once you get involved, there's no way out of it other than death. They both ed that day as if it was yesterday. They would never forget what a red room was, never again. They kept reading the website.

"Congrats, Park Jihyo and Hirai Momo. You are now involved in the red room. Are you willing to kill in the sake of the red room? For yes, click 1. For yes, click 2."

Momo looked at Jihyo. "W-what do we do?" she said in dread. Momo had started to tear up.

"There is only one thing we can do..." Jihyo said, her voice shaking.

Momo nodded and clicked 1. A deep voice started talking with them. Momo shrieked as she heard it and kept crying.

"Welcome to the red room. You will be given two friendship bracelets. One for Momo and one for Jihyo. Expect them to come soon."

Jihyo looked at Momo. She hugged her.

"Don't worry... We'll get through it. You'll see."

Momo nodded and hugged Jihyo tightly. "Hope so..."

There was an intense knock on the door which made the two shriek and let go of the hug. Jihyo shakily opened it and saw a package on the floor. It was wrapped in red. Jihyo closed the door and brought it to Momo. She opened it and looked inside.

"The bracelets..." Jihyo said.

Jihyo gave Momo the bracelet which said Room on it. Jihyo kept the red. The two friends exchanged looks and gave each other a reassuring nod.

They wore the bracelets... And that's where it all begun.

Jihyo cried as she held the bracelet in her hands. She had just betrayed her old friend. Why? To keep herself safe? Not that she would miss anything if she went to jail. Twice would probably disband after two were killed. Entertainment companies can't handle so much drama.

The next day it was already all over the news. Twice dancer Momo Hirai had gone insane and murdered her unnies Jeongyeon and Nayeon. The remaining twice decided to disband. All the agreed. Jihyo would never be the same after these few days.

Murder, betrayal, disbandment. What else could go wrong?

Back to the present...

Jihyo had fallen on her knees crying, mourning the loss of her son. And it was all her fault. Yes, she had killed her son. Brutally. The previous night. But she had to. She had no other choice. If she didn't, both her and her son would be lying dead right now. She thought it was just a dream that morning when she woke up. She thought it was just a bad dream and that the next day her son would kiss her good morning. But it wasn't like that.

Jihyo had taken her decision. She got herself together and walked to the police station. She asked to visit Hirai Momo, who was still serving her sentence in jail. Jihyo sat down and waited for Momo to come. And she did. Of course she would.

"Oh look who it is. It's the Traitor." Momo said sarcastically. "It's been twelve years and you didn't visit once."

"I came here to apologize." Jihyo said. "And tonight you will get your revenge on me without doing anything."

That's all that Jihyo said before she stood up and walked outside of the station. She walked to her house and looked everywhere. She got her rope and hanged it on the ceiling lamp. Jihyo got a chair and stood on it.

"I'm sorry."

Those were her last words before she left her preceding breath, finally meeting death himself.

And she convinced herself that she deserved it.

Curiosity kills the cat, after all.

And that's the end of red room!

I hope you liked it. The ending was

unexpected even for me :sweat_smile:

I was going to take it to a whole different

direction than what I took it. Anyways,

that's all for today. Byee!
