Novel Bin Chapter 3 Wish Things Were Different
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
My eyes opened as I gained consciousness slowly and I found myself a bit better than before. Though it wasn\'t as great as a healthy body, it was much better than when I was in bed.
\'Are my symptoms getting better?\' I thought, as I felt more comfortable than before. Though there was a backache and when I tried to move my head, my neck was hurting too.
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
I heard the loud banging that completely woke me as a sudden thought creeped in my mind when I realized that… the noise of banging was coming from the door right beside me.
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
I gulped silently as I looked around the kitchen for the knife before looking at the System\'s screen.
[Emergency Quest:
Survive the Zombie Horde for the next 1 hour
Total Numbers of Zombies remaining:12
Zombies have broken into your house.
Zombies will break into your kitchen in 12 minutes.
Reward: Unlock the System\'s Basic Features]
My eyes widened as I realized how long I had been knocked out for. Then when I looked at the time, I saw I still had some time before they broke into the kitchen…
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
I tried moving away from the door but
[Zombie will break into your kitchen in 30 seconds]
My heart almost stopped beating for a second before I instinctively pulled my body against the door again. This time I pushed against the door as hard as I could and the result was…
[Zombies will break into your kitchen in 34 minutes]
The time fluctuated depending upon how much strength I was applying at the door but honestly, I don\'t think I can keep holding the door for more than 10 minutes. I looked around the kitchen to find something which I can use but, if I move even a little, the time decreases by a lot at once.
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
I kept holding as hard as I could but I could feel my death getting closer and closer to me as time was passing. At this moment… during these final moments… I wondered about everything that I have done in my entire life.
I became a medical student and almost became a doctor before that incident happened. Because I was so busy with my studies, I didn\'t have time for anything else. I couldn\'t even give time to my family and friends slowly ending whatever the connections I had with them.
It wasn\'t like I wasn\'t proposed to but the stupid me thought it would be better to focus on career first before focusing on romance. Sacrifice today for a better tomorrow.
\'Better tomorrow my as*, it couldn\'t get any worse than this. If I had known something like that were to happen, I would have b*nged every second or third chick whom I knew… damn!\' I cursed at my fate as I wondered all the things I could have done, if I hadn\'t been so strict with my studies.
Even if I not include this stupid Apocalypse shit, it wasn\'t like my thoughts were going to change. The moment that b*stard gave me that injection, my life was sure to go downhill.
\'Man! Why am I even trying so hard? Wouldn\'t it be better for me to just yeet myself?\' I thought as I chuckled lightly slowly slipping to the floor, my body still pressed against the door.
\'Well.. if I am going to be eaten by a zombie… Please let it be a hot chick or something! That should at least ease my virgin pain maybe… I was eaten by a girl, sounds better than I was eaten by an uncle or something…\' I kept passing the time thinking about stupid stuff.
The knife was on the other side of the kitchen. Even if I leave the door, I don\'t know if my body would be able to make it to the other side. So, I thought it would be better to wait till the end and try it then.
-Bang!
-Bang!
-Bang!
With every bang, it felt like my soul would just leave my body. My mouth was dry, and I felt so thirsty that I could drink an entire gallon of water at once. It was tiring, both mentally and physically and at this point I just wanted it all to be over…
[Survive the Zombies Horde for the next 36 minutes
Zombies will break into your kitchen in 2 minutes]
I kept looking at the System as time kept ticking down slowly and before I knew it…
[Zombies will break into your kitchen in 20 seconds]
My heartbeat rose to its peak and I was sweating profusely. I could see my body shaking and my eyes were alternating between the system and the knife and as soon as I saw the time turning to 1 digit…
I crawled towards the knife on all fours before
-BANG!!!
-BANG!!!
-RAWRRRR!!!!
I heard an ugly voice behind me but maybe because of the panic and fear; I had already reached the knife as I took it out and turned around to the source of the ugly voice.
My eyes turned solemn a little as I saw the zombie in front of me and my heart ached… I had kind of hoped that the zombie… wouldn\'t be someone I knew… but… I guess it was too much to ask for.
It was our neighbor… I looked at the black hair and that red T-shirt he used to wear before going to work. Guy had a really nice personality with a sad backstory… wife dead and an 8 year old child to take care of.
I noticed that he was alone and there were no more zombies behind him. My eyes questioned that as I looked at the System once again.
[Total number of Zombies Remaining: 12]
Nope, the number did not change. Hmmmm… exactly what number am I dealing with here?
I wanted to analyze more, but it didn\'t seem like my neighbor liked me ignoring him.
-RAWR!!
He came closer to me with all the love he had and I kind of dashed to the side, dodging him before scrambling outside the kitchen with hurried steps. If the zombies are scattered all around the house… maybe I can survive for real…
