Ukiss Me Goodbye

Wasting no time, Soohyun kneeled to lift the hidden floor hatch.
Inside, he found a vertical tunnel with a rusty ladder, that descended into the darkness.
“ Looks inviting.” Mumbled Dongho.
“ I bet it leads to a way out.” Suggested Eli, as he excitedly neared the hatch. The others, however, didn't budge. “ What are we waiting for? Let’s go!”
“ Wait,” Soohyun stopped him, “ At least one person needs to stay behind in case Director Kim and the crew return. We’ll play “Kawi Bawi Bo” to decide who it’s going to be. Call?”
“ Call!” The boys nodded in agreement, balling their fists in preparation for the game...

“ KAWI, BAWI, BO!” They shouted simultaneously.
Everyone had thrown “rock”, everyone except for Kiseop, who was unfortunate to have thrown “scissors”. The results were conclusive.
“ Lucky Kiseop stays behind.” AJ grinned, patting Kiseop’s stiff shoulders, “ Have fun playing with the ghosts while we’re gone.”
“ Wa--Wait a minute!” Kiseop stuttered, “ That wasn’t fair! Let’s play again! I don’t want—“
The lights went out for a second time. Only this time, there was no screaming, but silence.
