Chapter 8

Cheong-san, Su-Ho, and Su-hyeok go in position to fight. before Su-Ho went Nam-ra stooped her.

"Be careful" Nam-ra said and Su-Ho nodded and go to her position.

All the zombies start to come up the stair case and the three of them start to fight them. Nam-ra saw a tarp.

"On-Jo" Nam-ra said making On-Jo to look at her. "Help me throw this over." They throw the tarp over to help with the zombies. it was helping them until Cheong-san, Su-Ho, and Su-hyeok saw Gwi-nam holding a zombie walking towards them with a smile on his face.

__________________________________________________________

Gwi-Nam threw the zombie then started to fight Cheong-San. Cheong-san tried to hit Gwi-Nam with the weapon he had in his hand but it did nothing. Gwi-nam laughed in his face. Onjo kept on trying to open the door but it wouldn't open. Gwi-Nam got closer to Cheong-san and tried chocking him.

"Cheong-San" Su-Ho said. She went over towards then and pushed Gwi-Nam to the floor. Gwi-Nam got up and went towards her. 

"Give me your eye." Gwi-nam said and started to put his finger into her eye but nsm-ra went up to him and started to choke him. 

"Don't touch her." Nam-ra said and threw him. 

Su-Ho went up to Nam-ra and hugged her 

"Are you alright." Su-Ho asked and Nam-ra nodded 

"Are you?" Nam-ra asked and Su-Ho nodded. 

"Guys! The door's unlocked." On-Jo said 

Everyone went starts running towards the door. 

"Come on" Su-Ho said and grabbed nam-ra's hand. 

When they all got outside the chopper already left. They all tried screaming towards it but it didn't come back. People started crying until they  heard banging on the door, the banging stopped after a little while. 

"He's gone." Nam-ra said 

"What the actual fսck?" Wu-Jin said 

"Who's gone?" Su-Hyeok asked 

"Gwi-nam. It's his smell." Nam-ra said 

Su-Ho went towards the other side of the roof and Cheong-san followed her. 

"What happened? Didn't Gwi-nam fall from the fourth floor?" Cheong-san said 

"Yeah, I threw him off." Su-Ho said 

"So how did he manage to survive?"

"Maybe he doesn't die. He comes back to life. He's not a human or a zombie." Su-Ho said 

"Do you remember that girl in the teachers' office?" Cheong- sa said. 

"Yeah, she was weird."

"He's like her, isn't he?" Cheong-san said 

"You could be right."

"Maybe Nam-ra is the same." Cheong-san said and Su-Ho looks at her sitting down on a chair while the others make an SOS sign. 

"She'll be okay." Su-Ho said 

"You can't guarantee that'll happen."

"We can't guarantee anything right now, can we? We don't even know if we're gonna live." Su-Ho said. "Let's go make the SOS sign."

'Su-Ho." Cheong-san said 

"What if it were On-jo, could you just abandon her?" Su-Ho said and walked away. 

They were all making an SOS sign. Joon-Yeong climbed on a stand to see how the sign looks. 

"How does it look." Ji-Min said 

"The "O," it's just too narrow." Joon-Yeong said 

"He said the "O" is too narrow. Dae-su, hand me that long one." Wu-Jin said. They stated to recreate the O. 

"Come take a look. We did a good job, guys." Dae-su said 

"We did do a good job." Su-Ho said 

Couple minutes later 

They were all sitting down 

"What does SOS mean?" Dae-su said 

"It's a distress signal." On-Jo said 

"I know that. What does it stand for?"

"It doesn't stand for anything. SOS is just SOS." On-jo said 

"That makes no sense." Dae-su said

"That's just how it is. It doesn't mean anything."

"Then rescue quickly... Speed of save... Save?" Dae-su said 

"Why'd you ask if you're not gonna believe me?" On-Jo said 

"I thought you'd know."

"I do know. Look it up. You'll see I'm right."

'Whatever. How can I look it up? I don't have a phone."

"What?" Cheong-san said 

"I asked On-jo what SOS mean, and she said it doesn't mean anything. Just say you don't know next time." Dae-su said 

"Well, it's true." Cheong-san said 

"Really?"

"Mm-hm. She's totally right. Why don't you believe her?"

 Dae-su looks over at Nam-ra and Su-Ho and  started to walk towards them  "Hey, prez. What does SOS mean?" 

"That jerk!" On-Jo said 

"Forget him. Let him be." Cheong-san said 

"Is it true, though?" Cheong-san said 

"What?" On-Jo said 

"Are you sure SOS doesn't mean anything? Isn't it supposed to be an acronym?" Cheong-san said 

"You don't believe me, either?"

"Mm." Cheong-san said and was walking away but On-jo kicked him. 

"The sun's setting. Let's start a fire." On-Jo said 

They all started to gather wood for the fire, once they got the wood they started to make the fire by twisting two woods together. 

"I think it's working." Wu-Jin said 

"Im done" On-Jo said. Then it was Joon-Yeong turn. 

"Isn't that smoke?" Su-Ho said 

"Hey. Smoke. Smoke!" Su-hyeok said

"Blow." Dae-su said. Then Su-hyeok started to blow carefully. 

'Did it work? Su-hyeok?" Wu-Jin asked. "No" Su-hyeok said. 

Nam-ra was looking at them and pulled something out of her pocket. 

"Hey" Nam-ra said but no one her but Su-Ho. She looked at her and then the others. 

"Hey!" Su-Ho said 

"You can use this" Nam-ra said. They just looked at her confused.

"Well, I smoke sometimes." Nam-ra said 

"You had it this whole time." Dae-su said 

"You don't want it?" Nam-ra said and Su-hyeok took it. 

"Light it." Dae-su said. Su-Ho kept looking at Nam-ra concerned while the others started the fire.

They got the fire to start and they all sat in a circle around the fire. 

"Dae-su." Su-hyeok said 

"Yeah?" 

"How was your audition?"

"They said I have to lose weight." Dae-su said making Wu-Jin chuckle and Dae-su stared at him. 

"Well, you're a good singer." Hyo-Ryung said 

"Sing for us. I wanna hear it." Hyo-Ryung said 

'Just forget it. I don't want it". Dae-su said 

"I actually really like that song." Su-Ho said 

"Is that so?" Dae-su said 

"Mm-hm."

"Really?"

"It's really nice. You sing well." On-Jo said 

 "It'll cheer us up." Wu-Jin said

"It was such a nice song" Hyo-Ryung said 

"That was encouraging, Dae-su." Wu-Jin said 

 Su-Ho looked at Nam-ra "How long... have you been smoking for?" Su-Ho asked 

"Since eighth grade. I had no friends and a lot of stress back then." Nam-ra said 

"Did you ever need a friend, though?" On-Jo asked 

"I'm not sure. I can't really tell." 

"You always put up a wall." On-Jo said 

"The only person I ever see you talk to was Su-Ho other than that I only see you wear your headphones all day, and you never said anything. Wasn't it because you hated us?" On-Jo said

"I never hated you guys. I just... didn't have any friends." Nam-ra said and Su-Ho held her hand. 

Everyone else started to talk while Su-Ho spaced out Until she heard Nam-ra spoke again. 

"I don't really have anything to say. I wouldn't really know... but I feel like I made friends." nam-ra said and looked at Su-Ho and smiled a little. 

The others started talking to each other and Nam-ra rested her head on Su-Ho shoulder. 

Dae-su said "Be completely honest. Do you like someone?" It went quiet for a little. 

"Mm-hm." He said 

"You do? For real?" Dae-su said 

"Uh, pretty much." 

"Who is she?" Wu-Jin asked 

"No one." Cheong-san said 

"Who is she? Do I know her? Who is it?" On-jo asked 

"You. It's you, On-jo. I like you." Cheong-san said 

She scoffs then hit him on the shoulder "Stop that" She said 

"He doesn't mean it. He's just kidding. I mean, we were friends and neighbors since kindergarten, that's all." 

On-jo got up and walked away. Cheong-san got up and followed her. 

"On-jo. I'm sorry. You don't have to like me back." Cheong-san said 

"Please don't." She said 

"I did it. I said it all, so it's all good."

"How is it all good? You're a jerk. You were my best friend. I-sak's gone and now you're gone too." On-jo said. "What is it that you want from me?" Cheong-san looked at her. 

"Did you... Did you ever like me?" Cheong-san said 

"Not even a little bit? You never liked me?"

"Would you please leave? I just want to be alone." She said 

"You don't have to like me back." Cheong- san said and walked away. 

Gwi-Nam came out of nowhere and went straight to Cheong-san and shoved him to the ground. 

"Give me your eye, asshоlе." Gwi-nam said and tried to get Cheong-san eye.
