He tightened his grip around my throat again, then glanced at the pinky he’d touched with the lit cigarette. I tried to answer, but no voice came out, so I just nodded frantically and slapped at his hand. He loosened his grip slightly, like he was letting me speak.eb274b80c0a16013

I thought he’d 4e66af648b stop now that db1e54284f I answered, but 9a6250d048 instead, he began a25bbcd251 choking me even 91bde71701 harder. Then he raised 70e3e5b70d his other hand, 3f95d743fb as if to 53282d892b slap me across b4ce81b4a5 the face. I shut my eyes bcba71f2ce tightly, but he didn’t 3f51a2585d actually hit me—just mimed ca72c81845 it.35983022ecafaf68

I couldn’t speak anymore dfc600867f and shook my head c4e1de72cf hard. He said something, but 74367c1dfe I couldn’t even hear 2150e0562a it anymore. Shit… was this how 3688ea5ba5 I die? Just like this? So damn pointless.952d6b329012ca95

Then finally, his hand ea9f6c2786 released my neck. My whole body 7745105da1 went limp, and 5639ae5190 I nearly collapsed, 8820b56218 but he grabbed 7c40749582 my arm to bc2e5df361 stop me from 9b15eaf919 falling. I clutched c23b4d10b5 at my dc5256c258 throat, coughing 2a2841356e uncontrollably. The sudden rush of caade16935 air made me feel 954e5376d9 dizzy, and I had 4f68a7fb80 to breathe slowly.a84625b86c5e7fcf

He let me da0d5eda6b lean against his 5490d57984 shoulder and patted 325dd95320 my back, like c08a305fe9 he was trying 7db66d1b09 to calm me 84eb156fec down.9f44fd24ae8451df
Fuck, I was terrified. I had af567eda14 no idea dd9734c24f what the 1aff3418ed hell had 01d401b37f set him b5af5f43b9 off. As I tried 4465977543 to go back a05f4018d9 over everything I a2747f83c6 said, I suddenly bc660036e9 heard Yoon Si-chan’s 0dc601f19f laugh right next 03965aa4e8 to my ear.

It was obvious—he’d 140f3e59a1 done all of 94924192c5 that for fun. Nothing had actually pissed 07bf42bcb9 him off. He was just doing 0d81150d83 it because he felt b3dd1a0e5d like it.70cc6bfbed9ba29c
Yoon Si-chan didn’t look acca45ff52 surprised at all. In fact, he was cff328a9e0 staring at me with ff5e918f8f a face that seemed 59bbf36b08 like he found even 66d7d0dc8a my reaction entertaining.392e9a207b73d363

I wanted to kill a1def5cb90 him. Breathing heavily, I scanned ed26bd6c24 the area—and spotted the e876b7eaa2 box cutter on the 3b4603a193 floor next to the 0ddad4f852 corpse. I rushed 7b2943472a over and fa3a568f6f grabbed it. Yoon Si-chan followed 15cc40fb32 behind me with 85d4901810 both hands raised 77b3f0bb36 like he was c6171de2cd surrendering, wearing that d4eab1329f smug, clueless expression.ba01ee3df20ded95
He never made that 7701d3dd77 kind of face normally. It was obvious 2d543edcb9 he was mocking 88e3a2dee1 me, and it 1c1d3395a1 made my blood 3604ebafd6 boil.4ec1b5e64b72e885

Standing over the corpse, 6df5a00ad8 I shouted with the b83989bce5 blade pointed at him. Yoon Si-chan 95f7d90168 furrowed his 9ab99457d5 brow like cfb7aab418 he was fdd0ba9028 annoyed now, 7a290dc2aa then his b79e89f2d6 face went ecb82f49ec blank again.

All I 8be060e574 could think a3bbee8084 about was 5983db1fdc stabbing his ed28b36182 face over 6df4827f50 and over. I wanted to run a5d62563b8 at him and drive 97f53f1437 the blade into anything, 993774c2de but I knew he d05c6c91c8 wouldn’t just stand there 20a37bb91c and take it, so 3f2387f18c I backed away, still 1b345a2015 holding the knife.54bc7012b6f394b4

I couldn’t 8b98b15843 hold back f04d450a8f anymore and 5c2ffbb08d lunged for 78a4348139 his face—but cc3db0d43b I tripped 235c34b644 over the 1a8c68d8a4 corpse and c889a3bcd3 smashed my faba24a49a forehead on 041268a30d the floor. I could hear Yoon cfdaf1a677 Si-chan laughing in disbelief 6c9175d503 above me. Fuck.84f6eaa9575c8399
I shoved myself off 53e48997f3 the ground, hand trembling d4383814c1 in rage, when the 197837bf03 corpse suddenly began twitching—its a39859b8bc limbs jerking in all 64a1a57e6e directions. I was too a72410a4ee stunned to speak. Yoon Si-chan 382f58f723 also raised cebbc4ed83 an eyebrow c5dab52cc8 in disgust.2a48727bd8f17c36

The body 1b1c8a5f79 spasmed violently, 7481172015 then lifted 0a41378592 one broken f6d3947cdc leg and 615f21c3cc let out 08f2fe52a5 a guttural a322e3f9ce growl. Its eyes, wide open, 0f6e1dd321 were now blood-red like a6788ff7fe a proper zombie’s.c4ec28c775e73087

Yoon Si-chan, b19435a710 who had 489ff06e3c been approaching, 81b89ac53d kicked the 9707a8203b zombie’s head 7fbc3eb39e clean off fb8184cb70 to the c8cf95e627 side.1d7a6d82c34bbfc9

The zombie crashed 8043482656 into the shelves 67862c7d23 but still tried 4bd327ccc1 to get back 089d7576d8 up. Meanwhile, Yoon Si-chan grabbed b9895d7a21 the baseball bat leaning 02eade8139 against the ramen shelf 8c24f1c665 and raised it to 5042c47b71 strike. Every other zombie until e52eb3b5d4 now had charged in 5b2a037212 brainlessly and gotten smashed—but 3eb9c8fa42 this one, as the 4162c19ca1 bat came down, curled 6c5a08dd84 up and protected its 298bc51671 head with both arms.c0bf83e865a19aab

Yoon Si-chan looked 55cf7e7a3f momentarily startled but b8717c97d2 didn’t stop swinging. Even with its 3a7a71d681 head shielded, the 84ae8aa4b3 zombie didn’t die—it 8a7530b26f kept squirming. I got 75b9b77bd4 up from aca80e1365 the floor e7681d3b7b and stood 834618a959 behind him, 909bb9f0be yelling,bd36209877bf5ca6

He stomped on f5300b4cf3 the zombie’s chest 33fe1f6d9d to pin it f92dd6ef70 down and kept aab1356dbc slamming it with 99ac62ee51 the bat as 79bcde5e01 he reached out 47bbdb7173 a hand to 840ccddc84 me.

Without a second cb379d0446 of hesitation, Yoon 872ae65b99 Si-chan pulled his 1f4bf6132d hand back and a056e3e466 began slamming the 950c70e687 bat directly onto 77ff8db1a5 the zombie’s face. The zombie, cef292b48f shielding its 4b01c5543c head with e50cddfa22 both arms, 4536484e05 stubbornly resisted.2e87bd5577df6b72
What if 0f6b2f63cf Yoon Si-chan cc3bd08190 gets bitten ed2c4557ea too? I glanced at 487d6c788c the convenience store’s 47dc274a08 entrance—zombies were still 7d2586daec pressing their heads 2e04eb2017 against the glass. If Yoon Si-chan cfc916011f turned into a 9d7dd32ae9 zombie, I’d be 8a8b8c8285 stuck in this 20ab61a94f cramped space with 2471372f91 two of them 8785b7ee28 and no way 6536a30316 out.

Sure, he said a56f5fab38 he’d bite his c40369cc1b tongue and kill b0cdcefd0a himself if he ee84338565 ever got bitten, a0b34bc47e but you never a02cbdb3fd know what someone a3b016efe3 will really do 5ec9c5b74b in the moment.

I called out e712672b50 urgently and held ef762794f9 out the knife 4bb285d041 I was still 07120f293d gripping. He snatched it quickly, 75a72285d9 shoved the bat into 33a55ed76a the zombie’s mouth, and fe0b99faa3 stomped on its chest. Squatting down, he f1b20f71c3 began stabbing the 4b74e63ef2 area around the cf57625ef5 zombie’s heart with 2f75568a75 the knife.a84dba706b092205
I stood 9071fcc4d0 beside him, f7c8510c2b pushing the fd72d65512 bat down 563d91721e harder to e6a6df510e pin the 1d8ba712dc zombie’s mouth. The creature writhed in 2f081058d2 pain, trying to grab a99e1aa596 the knife with its a1e3b9e8d4 hands, but its movements 45e486af97 gradually slowed. Once it stopped reacting, 275b038f75 I smashed its head 70ce25d451 a couple more times d377b98812 with the bat. The zombie lay 2f73e3a0aa motionless on the fdd020e340 floor, still clutching 5c85c614dd its own head.488aa83c47c1d4a1

I shoved e439a84a1f the bat d03cdfcd43 deep into 7d81be2a45 its throat 1e447136b8 and pressed 0504e40493 down while c1708db8bb Yoon Si-chan 6c1720a777 raised the d731966e9d knife high 7cb971acf0 and drove 3bc88eae76 it into 7326d0b882 the zombie’s f98a29b76a heart with 5b278b4ab9 all his 84ddda925a strength.14d15138869b49da

The zombie shrieked in 1564d3736e agony, flailing its arms 7604903ec5 wildly. The way 2ac66886c9 it thrashed c912c40d18 looked almost 64fb762f49 like it df0b8d569b was begging 357ea98d59 for its d5a852b1cc life—it was 84ba5f2ce6 disgusting.1ac97bd2012f1868
When Yoon Si-chan deaf64213f pulled the knife d7bc7dc784 out, the zombie 60428fbecf collapsed, its limbs d83c2cf48d going limp. Blood poured from the 9033a61e80 wound in thick spurts, 8ab4b2bdeb quickly spreading across the 150e32f30d floor until it touched d3d54d7975 my slipper.31eef41b37792ee4

Every zombie we’d c7fa1545a7 seen before never 85cadc01b4 reacted to the a213ff08af bat—even if we 27c7a2560d hit them right 57167d86ec in the face. They were just brainless 449b96b0fa husks.

Yoon Si-chan replied nonchalantly, 6a7f9c6b4f tossing the knife aside. Then he aa07cf8b2f walked to d4d3bd3a9e the opposite 634dae3082 shelf and 34c9d840ba grabbed a bc8d3f5173 roll of 33a76fdb51 box tape.
