Escape

The students held onto the bags of food and drinks that they collected from the supermarket as they sat in a circle in the middle of the store. They could hear the zombies banging on the shutter as they held their breaths while Sooyoung glared at Mi-jin and Min-jae.

FLASHBACK

Sooyoung walked away from the laying Hyunjin with Aeri in her arms. She picked up a bottle of Strawberry milk and banana milk and checked their expiry dates.

"Which one do you want darling ?"

"Banana milk !"

"Here !"

Sooyoung inserted the straw and handed over the bottle to Aeri as she giggled. They walked towards the snacks section when they heard shouting. Sooyoung held onto Aeri tightly and ran towards the sound.

They came to the sanitary section. She groaned in annoyance when she saw Mi-jin and Min-jae shouting and pulling each others hair.

"What is wrong with you both ?!"

She shouted after putting Aeri on the floor.

"Unnie is right ! What is wrong with you ? Are you kids ?"

Aeri shouted while acting like Sooyoung making the girl smile.

"Let me handle them little boss !"

"Yes Unnie !"

Sooyoung walked over to the two seniors and separated them harshly before shouting at their faces.

"Will you tell me what is wrong ?!?"

"This mother---"

"Language Mi-jin !"

"This rotten potato couldn't kill an ugly cockroach and let it fly on my beautiful face."

"I told you that it was flying ! I couldn't kill it until it was resting at one place. Plus flying cockroaches are scary !"

"I don't know anything ! If I get a pimple due to that digusting creature sitting on my face I will kill you with my bare hands !"

"But I wasn't even at faul----"

"SHUT UP !! JUST SHUT UP !!! AND COME WITH ME !"

Sooyoung pulled the two using their ears towards the cash counter with Aeri following them while giggling.

FLASHBACK ENDED

"Sooyoung-ah don't look at me like that or I will fall in love."

Mi-jin whinned making Min-jae snicker sarcastically.

"Aren't you already in love ?"

"Yaaa----"

"Speak one more word both of you and I will throw your childish asses out of this building."

Sooyoung warned with Aeri sitting on her lap who just giggled at the scared faces of the seniors.

"How do we get out now ?"

Hyunjin asked as he stared at the shutter of the shop. Thankfully they had closed the shutter completely before starting their quest around the store.

"We can wait till they disperse."

Suhyeok said making Namra shake her head in disapproval.

"We cannot wait. We need to get to the others before sunset. They must be hungry. Also Dae-su needs medical attention."

Sooyoung nodded her head as she played with Aeri's soft black hair. She suddenly stopped as an idea struck her mind.

"Yeonjun is there any other exit to this building ?"

"There is only the backdoor through which you all came in."

"Oh...we can leave then"

"How ?"

Everybody whisper shouted as they stared at Sooyoung curiously. The girl just sighed before she started explaining.

"Did you all saw the radio on the cash counter ?"

"Yeah...what about it ?"

"We can play something on it and place it at the extreme cornor of the shutter. The zombies will go near the sounf while we can leave from the backdoor QUIETLY."

She emphasised the word quietly as she glared at Mi-jin and Min-jae who immediately nodded their head in agreement.

"Is it fine with everyone ?"

"Yes !"

"Yeonjun are you and Aeri coming with us ? We are going to the rescue camp."

"What do you think Aeri ? Do you want to meet more people ?"

"I would love to !"

"Then I think we both are coming with you all."

Yeonjun nodded and picked up Aeri from Sooyoung's lap. The taller girl picked up the radio and walked towards the glass door. She opened the door and walked out towards before keeping the radio near the shutter. She carefully turned it on and increased its volume to the maximum.

She quickly walked back in and locked the door when she felt the zombies going crazier at the sound of the music playing through the radio.

"Poor thing ! I really wanted to take it back with me."

Mi-jin mumbled in a sad door while grooving to the song playing on the radio. Hyunjin nudged her shoulder while snickering.

"Stop dancing and follow us before you become the meal to these zombies."

Mi-jin huffed and nodded before  following Sooyoung with a smile on her face.

Suhyeok carefully removed the barricade from the back door and slightly knocked at it. The students held their breath and stayed silent while trying to listen for any movement outside the door.

They decided to move out after waiting for a few minutes with no sign of zombies. Suhyeok looked back at the group with an assuring gaze and held onto the door knob. Yeonjun held onto Aeri tighter while the others gripped onto the food bags, not wanting to lose anything.

Suhyeok walked out followed by Hyunjin and the others with Namra at the very back of the group. She closed the door behind her as she took a last glance at the store. She took a deep breath and started walking with the others without making any noise.

They walked past tge zombies conciously as they reached their van parked opposite to the large building. Hyunjin hurriedly opened the door and ushered the students inside when he saw the zombies notice their presence. He instructed them to closed the windows and hold on tight.

"Here we go !!!"

He shouted before accelarating the car and zooming past the zombies while rushing man of them with no mercy. He turned towards the forest area and decided to get them all out of the danger zone before the fuel in the van ran out.

"We are low on fuel so we will not be able to last long."

He announced in a devastated tone earning whines from Mi-jin and Aeri.

"Can we get out of the zombie infested town ?"

"Definately can"

"Then keep driving we will worry about other things later."

"Yes madam Sooyoung !"

Hyunjin said and focused his attention back on driving and getting them to their cozy hut soon.
