Darker Twist | All of us are dead

╰┈➤ Chapter 12

Nayeon's grip on Hye-wol's arm tightens as she tries to make her body smaller, eyes going wide when On-jo yelled that the Professor has a bite mark on his arm. Hye-wol could feel the small tremble on the lass' finger and she cannot help but to feel bad. This--- all of what's happening and is about to happen to them is too much for this teenagers. The first time they trust someone older in this mayhem is also the first and certainly not the last time that the adults will disappoint them.

The students inside of Class 2-5 also halted from stacking the chairs and table to block the door, instinctively scurrying back and away from the gym professor.

"What is it?"

Tension rises between all of them as Coach Kang stare at the obvious and bright red bite mark on his arm. That's when he only notices that he indeed was bitten but his automatic response was to deny it. His mind clouded with adrenaline and fear that he couldn't think properly, "I wasn't bitten."

"He said he wasn't bitten..." Gyeong-su murmur, seeminly convincing even himself because he's the first one to trust the professor.

Coach Kang shakes his head indignantly, fingers trembling as he pulls down his sleeve to hide the open wound, "I... No. I wasn't... bitten."

Fear...

"It's a bite mark." On-jo let the fear to talk for her, eyes watering as her and I-sak--- or everyone on this room freezes on their spot.

"I said it isn't. Don't talk back to me, okay?" Coach Kang insisted.

"It looks like you were really bitten." I-sak persisted.

"I wasn't!" Coach Kang raises his voice. Through their connected arms, Hye-wol could feel Na-yeon flinch at the sudden raise of his voice, "How many times must I tell you?"

Tension grew thicker and Hye-wol shifted her weight from one foot to another in anxiety, "Then why are you hiding it! Just show it to us!" as expected, I-sak raises her voice too.

"I think you should leave right now...."

Coach Kang seems taken a back, "What?"

"Get out of here immediately."

"You want me to go out there? After all I did to get here? You want me to go back out?"

"You were bitten. Come on, Coach Kang. Get out." I-sak stood her ground, voice wavering and it sounds like she's about to cry, "I said get out now!"

"You son of a bitch! How dare you yell at me like that?!"

Anger...

On-jo begins to pull I-sak back when Coach Kang stalks towards her while Hye-wol instinctively steps forward to only got pulled back by Na-yeon, "Hye-wol, please. No."

"You little... Come here!"

On-jo pulled I-sak backwards so Coach Kang walks towards them, a glare as sharp as new dagger settled on his eyes, "You won't come? Yah!"

Fuck the script. She won't going to have a second chance here. If she dies, it will be permanent so she must do anything to survive.

"Coach Kang," Hye-wol pulls away from Na-yeon to stand between I-sak and the gym professor, earning a protest from different part of the room.

"Hye-wol ah! Stand down!"

"He's bitten!"

"What are you doing?!"

"Come here!"

She's very close at the infected professor and there's a slight tremor on her stance but she stood her ground, ignoring the calls of her friends and glare at the boys who tries to pull her away.
