After spending the night at the warehouse, we decided to raid a grocery store for more supplies.

JeongYeon and NaYeon were in the lead as we crept our way to the market. JiHyo had one arm wrapped around my waist and the other holding her bat, not wanting me to get hurt again. It's cute how she's so protective!

Life is so good right now. How ironic.

I never got a good look at Seoul now. It was even trashier than it was before if that was even possible. The streets were littered with junk, the once semi-blue sky was now an ashen gray. There was blood splattered on every inch of the city. We made our way to the store, whose doors were wide open.

"Come on." NaYeon says, and gestures for us to head in.

The place was dark, our only source of light being our flashlights. I clung closer to JiHyo as I wasn't a big fan of the dark. NaYeon and JeongYeon start grabbing everything they thought was useful. I see them shove some rope, a bunch of food, and another first aid kit into our backpack.

That's when I hear a noise. It was soft, barely noticeable.

"Did you guys hear that?" I whisper, thinking that we weren't alone.

They all shook their head.

"I don't think we're the only ones here." I say nervously, shining my flashlight around the place, trying to find the source of the noise I heard.

We hear a loud crash, confirming my thoughts. The four of us screamed. We all whipped out our weapons and turned to the intruder. I shined my flashlight into his face.

"AHH!" I hear a familiar voice scream.

"DAD!?" I shout.

He had a panicked expression on his face, seeing our weapons. Once he realizes it was me, he sighs in relief.

"Sana! Is this really you?! You're okay!" He gathers me in a hug. "I was so worried!"

I pull away, confusion entering my brain.

"Thank You dad, but wait- how are you here? Are mom and Chan okay!?"

"They're fine. The two of them are still back in Daegu with grandma." He answers. "The zombies are only in Seoul." He informs us.

NaYeon gives a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness I didn't doom the whole world!" She says.

"Oh, hey NaYeon." My dad says, not noticing she was here.

Then he sees who else was with me.

"JiHyo and JeongYeon!?!? Why are they with you!?" He asks, shock on his face.

I dodge his question. "The more important question is why are you here?" I ask.

"I had to come for you Sana, I just had to!" My dad answers. "I couldn't just leave you alone with zombies!"

"So you decided to leave mom and Chan instead?" I raise an eyebrow, not understanding his actions.

I was doing just fine in this apocalypse. I had JeongYeon, NaYeon, and JiHyo. Especially JiHyo. My girlfriend!

"Okay, so maybe it wasn't the best plan." My dad admits. "But they'll be fine, Daegu is perfectly safe unlike here! We can't get out of the city, they built a giant wall to trap everyone in." My dad states. "We're basically under quarantine until further notice."

"Wait, if there's a wall blocking the city then how did you get in?" JiHyo asks.

My dad looks at her then his eyes trail down to her arm that was wrapped around me. His eyes widen.
