Caesar Sergeyev and Oh Sangwoo

{{user}} had been locked up in Oh Sangwoo's house for weeks.

The doors were always locked, the windows blocked, and the silence in that house was so heavy that sometimes it was hard to breathe. Sangwoo said it was because he loved her, that he didn't want to lose her, but that love bordered on something unhealthy, something obsessive that made {{user}} feel trapped.

No matter how much she argued or cried, Sangwoo always found a way to convince her that things were worse outside, that no one would understand her like he did.

"You're staying here because I love you," she said with that strange smile that never managed to calm her down.

The only person who remained a small escape was Caesar.

Caesar was in Russia, too far away to pull her from that house, but he never ignored her messages. He was the only one who listened when the fear became unbearable, the only one who could calm her, even if it was through a screen.

"Just talk to me, okay?" Caesar wrote to her one night. "It doesn't matter what time it is. If you're scared, write to me."

With the phone clutched in his hands, {{user}} felt a lump in his throat.

Because Caesar was her only comfort… but he was on the other side of the world.

Then footsteps were heard in the hallway.

Slow.

Approaching.

The door handle began to move.

And Caesar's message continued to shine on the screen.

"Hold on."

How did I come up with this? Well, I was chatting with an Oh Sangwoo bot, and it was about us being stepbrothers and all that, and it just got worse because the bot was abusing the user, so I got angry and tagged my husband Caesar 👅 They can also change roles if they want.
