Chapter 4

Cheong san dangled from the hose dangerously.

Onjo looked at him in alarm.

"Cheong san!"

He looked to his right to see where the voice came from.

It was Su hyeok's.

"Bare su?!"

Su hyeok grinned. The zombies were going to topple down on Cheong san.

"You should be careful..."

One of the zombies dropped down and grabbed Cheong san's leg. He looked at the zombie in surprise.

Su hyeok grunted.

"Kick it off, idiot!"

"I'm trying!"

Su ah giggled at their antics. Su hyeok sighed in frustration. Then he did the most surprising thing.

He jumped to Cheong san, hugging him in the process. Cheong san groaned.

"What are you doing?"

Su hyeok kicked the zombie that was grabbing on to Cheong san and it fell to the ground.

"Helping you."

Cheong san scoffed.

"Stop hugging me, stupid!"

"Yeah, yeah."

Gyeong su laughed. Su hyeok and Cheong san then climbed down the hose.

Onjo helped Su hyeok. Nam ra looked at them. Su ah nudged her sister.

Nam ra walked to Su hyeok.

"Are you okay?"

She asked him softly. He looked at her in surprise.

"Yeah. Thanks for asking, Prez."

Nayeon interrupted.

"It's all your fault, welfie! If you had held the door, this wouldn't have happened!"

Gyeong su scoffed.

"At least I don't act so bitchy like you!"

"Both of you, stop fighting!"

Ms Park stopped them.

"Han Gyeong su, apologize to Nayeon right now!"

"And Lee Nayeon, apologize to Gyeong su rig..."

"Actually, what is a 'welfie'?"

Ms Park looked at Nayeon. Nayeon rolled her eyes and scoffed. Su hyeok joined the conversation.

"It means a person under welfare. 'Welfie' for short."

Ms Park responded with an 'Ohh'.

Then she turned to Nayeon again.

"Do not call your friend that, Nayeon!"

"He is not my fri-"

Nayeon was interrupted by a 'shush' by Cheong san.

The hose was moving slightly.

Wu jin cocked an eyebrow and stood in front of Su ah.

Suddenly, a zombie dropped from the hose, grabbing Cheong san. He yelped and tried to prise of the zombie's grip.

Su hyeok grabbed a broom and stabbed the zombie, accidentally hitting Gyeong su's nose.

"Ow!!"

"Sorry, Gyeong su."

Cheong san yelled.

"Help!"

Gyeong su looked for the first thing he saw, which was the computer. He grabbed it and tried to hit the zombie with it.

However, the zombie scratched him in the process.

Then, he threw the computer at the zombie, knocking it to the ground.

He swiped his hands. Nayeon yelled.

"He got bitten!"

Gyeong su rolled his eyes.

"Wow, seriously?"

His nose started bleeding. Nayeon backed away.

"See??! He got bitten!"

She screeched. He scoffed.

"I didn't, Bare su hit my nose with the broom."

He pointed to the blood covered broom at the corner of the room.

"And I only got scratched, usually you turn only if you get bitten."

Cheong san grabbed his arm and saw that it was only a scratch.

"He's right, it's only a scratch."

"No!!"

Nayeon refused to believe and she didn't want to be in the same room as a soon-to-be zombie.

Ms Park interrupted.

"What about this? Gyeong su, why don't you stay in the recording room for 30 minutes first?"

Gyeong su nodded.

"I'd stay 1 hour if you like!"

Ms Park turned to Nayeon.

"And if he doesn't turn, I want you to apologize to him, okay Nayeon?"

Nayeon grunted.

"Okay Nayeon?"

Ms Park repeated. Nayeon sighed and nodded her head.

******

Cheong san looked through the window of the recording room. He whistled the school song to Gyeong su.

Gyeong su saw this and raised an eyebrow. Then he pointed his middle finger to Cheong san.

Cheong san laughed. He motioned to Gyeong su for him to come out. However, Gyeong su dismissed him with his hand and continued doing his stuff.

Cheong san walked to Ms Park.

"He's not coming out... It's been 30 minutes."

"I'll talk to him."

Ms Park entered the recording room and spoke to Gyeong su.

He nodded.

Then she came out.

"Nayeon, you should go apologize to him now."

Nayeon grunted in frustration. She was at the corner of the room, next to the blood-stained broom.

She walked into the room. Everyone watched them. Su hyeok pointed.

"They're gonna kiss..."

Nayeon had taken out a handkerchief and dabbed it on Gyeong su's hand. Su ah cocked an eyebrow.

Gyeong su's expression had changed.

Something's not right...

She stormed out of the room, Gyeong su following behind angrily.

"You bitch!!"

He shouted at her loudly. Su hyeok and Cheong san held him back.

"She was being bitc..."

He trailed off. Blood dropped from his nose. Everyone backed away. Nayeon screeched.

"See??! I told you he's gonna turn!!"

Gyeong su furrowed his eyebrows.

"It's not what it looks like..."

His bones started cracking. He went wide eyed.

"I-I'll see myself off."

He walked to the door. A tear ran down Su ah's cheek. Gyeong su was one of her closest friends.

Did it have to be him?

Before he could walk to the door, he fell to the floor. When he got up, he started snarling.

Cheong san whistled their school song. Gyeong su charged toward him as Cheong san quickly moved to his right.

Gyeong su flew out the window. Su ah couldn't hold it back any longer. She started crying into Wu jin's shoulder.

Gyeong su was gone.
