"Yeo Ri-ah . "
Hearing that slimy voice, Yeo Ri hesitated for a while before turning around to face him .
"D-Dad . "
"Yeo Ri-ah . " Lee Do Joon took a step forward towards her . Yeo Ri unconsciously took a step back, but behind her was the sink . Once again, she was trapped .
The man smiled, not minding her reaction .
"Yeo Ri-ah," Lee Do Joon placed a hand on her shoulder, caressing her collarbone with his thumb . He leaned closer to her, whispering, "Dad is sorry about yesterday . "
Yeo Ri flinched at his touch and tried to move away, but the hand on her shoulder kept her in place . She trembled and lowered her head, avoiding from looking at him .
"Sorry, I must"ve been pretty drunk . I should have been gentler, shouldn"t I? Right?" He grabbed her cheek gently and made her look at him . "I"ll remember it this time . "
"W-what?" Yeo Ri"s whole body trembled as her blood ran cold . She had thought that the incident last time was a one-time thing, and thus had buried it inside her . No matter what he had done previously, Yeo Ri still thought of him as the father who had raised her and was prepared to forget about it . However, this encounter completely changed her mind .
His hand slipped under her shirt, groping her skin .
She tried to pull away, and in her fear, she zeroed in on the knife near the dish rack .
Before he could do any more harm, she immediately reached for the knife and pointed it at him . "N-no! Stop it! Don"t touch me!"
The knife nicked him and his eyes darkened . His mood was spoiled as he stared at the girl dangerously .
Yeo Ri"s limbs were trembling like leaves and her legs threatened to collapse under her, but she held on . Though she could not handle her own against him with her strength that wasn"t even enough to truss a chicken, having the knife in her hands gave her a slight bit of confidence .
"I see," he smirked wretchedly, angered yet amused . "Just wait until I get home later," he warned . He used his thumb to wipe away the blood that had trickled out of his wound . The anger was rolling off his skin and she could feel it . The man stared down at her, his face twisted into an awful and despicable look .
Treating as if she was prey, he lets her off, thinking that there was still plenty of chances left . He could take his time, he thought . For now, he needed to go to work . He"d deal with her when he returns later .
Yeo Ri found the opportunity to run away, so she immediately retreated to the safety of her room . The man watched her, his smirk not fading away as he licked his lips, his eyes burning with desire .
Yeo Ri locked the door and barricaded it with her body . She collapsed on the floor, breathing heavily . The tears she had been holding back finally spilled, and she could do nothing but curl up and sob .
She hugged the knife flat against her chest, holding on to it as if it was her anchor .
