Secrets Followed by Mysteries

Part 23

Jimin: Shit! *startled*

they both ran to where the screaming came from.

Stella: Julie! Please help me!!

Julie ran to the infected and grabbed him off Stella. Within a second, Jimin ran to Julie.

Stella: Oh god! ANYONE COME HELP US PLEASE!!

Agia: What is going on?!!

Julie: Agia! Take Stella away!! *trying to get the infected off Jimin*

Agia: Stella, go downstairs! *went to Julie and grabbed the infected by the bag she was holding*

Nicole and Jessica came up too

Nicole: OH MY GOD!! AN INFECTED!! JESSICA WHAT SHOULD WE DO??!!!

Jessica rushed over to Julie and helped her off the floor. Jimin sprinted to Agia, who was pinned beneath the infected. Nicole followed, grabbing Agia and pulling her away from the creature. In a frantic moment, Julie seized the infected from Jimin's grip, intending to throw it to the ground. However, the infected clung to her leg, causing her to stumble and fall. Now, the creature was atop Julie, attempting to bite her. Thinking quickly, Jimin tore off his shirt and covered the infected's face, preventing it from harming anyone. Meanwhile, Nicole helped Julie to her feet, while Diana assisted Jimin in subduing the creature to the floor. Julie didn’t hesitate for a moment before firing at the infected with the gun tucked into her back pocket. The moment after, the gun slipped from Julie's fingers, and she crumpled to the ground, gasping for breath.

Jimin: is everyone okay?

Diana: I guess so.

Jimin: Where the heck are the boys?!! *sat on the floor*

Julie: I'll call them. *still breathing heavily*

Jimin: Julie?

Julie: *looked at him* yea?

Jimin: Are you okay? *went to her*

Julie: My heart is just racing, don't worry.

Jimin: How about you go in First? I'll call them.

Julie: Ok *got up and slowly headed inside*

Jessica: Should I follow her?

Jimin: Yes please.

In the apartment

Jessica: Julie, You sure you're okay?

Julie: I don't know what's wrong. *breathing rapidly*

Jessica: Hey hey *sat beside her* Calm down, will you? Take slow breaths.

Julie: *calmed down after several tries*

Jessica: Better?

Namjoon: Julie!! *ran to her* are you okay?

Julie teared up, placing her hand on her chest as she looked at Namjoon

Julie: My chest hurts. *teary eyes*

Namjoon: shhh *hugged her* Calm down, it's okay. Everything's fine, Calm down *patting her back*

After sometime Namjoon suggested Julie to have a nap While He and Jessica headed outside.

Namjoon: She often gets those panic attacks every time she sees an infected person...

Jessica: She looked really scared back then, but she tried to remain alerted.

Namjoon: She always wants to seem tough so that no one gets worried about her.

Jessica: She was always like that, wasn't she?

Namjoon: No. She was never like that. She used to be Sensitive, Cute and always acted like a baby.

Jessica: Sensitive? Julie?

Namjoon: It all ended when...
