I feel my way around the kitchen before I find some flashlights in one of the drawers. I grab them and turn one on. I make my way back over to NaYeon and JiHyo and give one to each of them.

"How is this even possible?" JiHyo voices my thoughts.

Even in the darkness, I can still see her eyes. They were wild with panic.

"I'm just gonna go to sleep and everything will be gone in the morning. This was all a dream." She mutters to herself.

"Let's just get those weapons you were talking about Sana." NaYeon says, grabbing my arm and pulling me away from the hysterical JiHyo.

We went to the kitchen and began collecting all the knives.

"Sorry for the slipup, but I do think you should tell her how you feel." NaYeon apologizes.

"NaYeon, that's crazy!" I whisper so that JiHyo doesn't hear me. "We are in a zombie apocalypse! There's no place for feelings here!"

"Yes, there is! How do you think humans will have to repopulate after most of us become those flesh eating monsters!?" NaYeon exclaims.

I quickly look at JiHyo to make sure she was not listening. She was staring at the carpet with no indication of whether she was listening or not.

"NaYeon, can we not talk about this right now!? We still have to board up the windows and gather all the supplies we can!" I say back.

NaYeon sighs and gives in. "I'll go find some wood." She says and races to the attic.

I put all the knives we have in a small pile on the table. They clatter as they hit the glass, startling JiHyo. She realized what I was doing.

"Sorry I wasn't helping. Is there anything I can do now?"

I think for a moment.

NaYeon was going to board up the windows while I was collecting weapons for us.

"Yes, actually. Find all the nonperishable food in the house. And maybe try to find something we could eat for dinner as well."

JiHyo nods and goes to the kitchen.

I go looking around the house, seeing what everyday objects we could use. I grab the tennis racket JiHyo used to hit the zombie, a baseball bat, and a golf club.

While rummaging through a random box, NaYeon startles me by appearing out of nowhere.

"ARGHH! NaYeon, don't do that!" I scream. "You nearly gave me a heart attack!"

"Everything all right over there?" JiHyo calls, hearing my shouts.

I blush, hearing my crush ask if I was okay. She cares about me! Or maybe she just doesn't want to be stuck in an apocalypse alone.
