"We are all sinners."
There was a prediction that the end of the world will be coming soon but nobody knows when and how will it end. Christians believe that the second coming of Jesus will end everything and they called it 'Rapture'.

Chapter 19. "Sacrifice"

Day 7
Date: December 22, 2030

Place: Plaridel, Bulacan
Malayo at palayo nang palayo. Iyan ang nararamdaman ko ngayon kay Chaste at sa iba pa, I am blaming myself again for what happened. They have sacrificed their lives to save me, and we lost one. Simula pa kagabi, pakiramdam ko ay malayo ang loob ni Chaste sa akin, same goes with the other members. With that, thinking of what happened, I didn't have a decent sleep last night.
The plan has changed. The supposed plan that the group will be divided into two has changed. Isang sasakyan lang ang gamit namin at lahat kami ay magkakasama na dito. At mas lalo akong naiilang dahil kasama ko silang lahat at pakiramdam na lumalayo sila sa akin. And I can't blame them, I admitted to myself that Sherwin's death was my entire fault.
Nag-stop over muna kami dito sa isang convenience store. The sevens secured the place that there were no zombies nearby. Papunta na kami sa Pampanga, at marami rin kaming nakakasabay na iba pang mga papunta doon. May mga nadadaanan din kaming kaguluhan simula pa kagabi at ilang mga check point to secure that there is no infected will enter the Pampanga.
Papasikat pa lang ang araw at tahimik lamang ako ditong nakamasid. Iniisip pa rin ang mga nangyari, at iniisip kung ano pa ba ang mangyayari sa akin, sa amin.
"Was it awkward?" napalingon ako nang may tumabi sa akin. It was unexpected to see him and talking to me. I inhale deeply as my answer to his question. So, it wasn't just me who notices it.
"Deserved ko naman." Sabi ko sa kanya. I heard Philip releases a deep sigh.
"You understand, Chaste's feelings, it was his cousin anyway. Pero si Flare..." napatingin ako kay Philip dahil sa sinabi niya. He looked at me and I saw his serious yet empathizing face. "Maybe she lost her love of her life." Nanlaki ang mga mata ko dahil sa sinabi ni Philip.
Ilang sandali akong natahimik dahil sa pagkabigla dahil sa nalaman ko.
"I didn't know..." 'yon lang ang nasabi ko at napatingin na lang sa ibaba dahil sa lungkot na naramdaman ko. I remember how Julian reacted and sorrowed when he shot Monica to death, the love of his life and now, it happened also with Flare.
"Hindi pa naman sila, Sherwin was courting her for almost one year. At kahit na nasa Red Fangs si Sherwin, he still managed to communicate with Flare sometimes. Hindi alam ng Red Fangs 'yon, because since then, Sherwin was their member." Philip explained.
