"We just returned late at night from a supply run, it was in our usual spot, supposedly quick and easy ...

But it wasn't, the glass pane finally cracked. Shattering into millions of glimmering pieces.

My brother and I managed to get out, but barely. Truthfully I wish I hadn't.

I can't hide the bite for long, only he knows no one else I dare not even tell my husband.

I have another supply run day tomorrow, I intend for it to be my last. I'll run away before I turn."

That was the last line.

My eyes didn't tear up nor did my voice shake. Everything in me just went numb.

That last supply run is when she got shot, she would've disappeared from me anyway.

Over 7 months ...Bob was in agony and it's partially my fault.

Namjoon practically rapped the translation yet again to the rest. Jungkooks hand comfortingly patted my back.

I look around at the 7 solemn looking faces, all of us sitting in a circle between the two beds as if we're some kind of cult mourning over a lost member

It's so sad in here it's suffocating.

"well.. I have to go speak with my dad regarding a rescue mission for bo- my uncle,"

-

I just made it to the stairs when I heard the door opening and shutting again. Quickened uneven footsteps plodded over.

"Jungkook?"

As if on cue he popped up at my side with bunny-like smile.

"May I?" He held his palm out right next to mine, almost holding it but not yet. I smiled and took his hand. 

He's one of the only few people with any morales left. Not forcing himself onto women.

I walk hand in hand with him down the stairs towards my dads office. Slipping my hand out of his only as I knocked on the door.

"Come in," he called.

I dramatically swung the door open. Ready to present my whole case as to why we should feed Sean to the undead and watch with glee but the guilty offender is there, standing across my dad, a gauze bandage on his nose.

"You," I seethed as I walked in. Jungkook tailing right behind like a body guard.

My dad had his hands held together, squeezing his own fingers. A vein popped out from the side of his forehead but he spoke calmly, as calmly as he could "(Y/n), Sean has just informed me of everything,"

"What do you mean by everything?" I carefully approached the table.

"About my brother-in-law, and your mothers bite," he bit down on his lips, pressing his knuckles against them. Things went dead silent except for his uneven breaths, once his breathing steadied he looked my way "I assume thats the diary" he points at it, opening up his palm and reaching out, I place the diary in it.

He took the book, feverishly skimming through until he found the last entry. I watch his face contort in pain as he found it and read.

My eyes glanced to Sean, he still looked guilty but there was another emotion. A twinge of confusion ...and jealousy.

Pathetic.

I stick by Gguk, hopefully then he gets a clearer picture on why him and I would never work out.

"Dad, I met him outside the walls. Mum asked him to shoot so we could run. He was innocent all along. He's in trouble now, people kidnapped him and wrecked his house,"
