Dhammawitaya School Rooftop – 1:03 p.m.8964 copyright protection41PENANApIkA50KBPI 維尼
Rain.8964 copyright protection41PENANAUZ2h76Ciim 維尼
It started as a soft drizzle—almost peaceful.8964 copyright protection41PENANAaqvLcMt8eV 維尼
But soon, the wind picked up, sweeping through the rooftop like a whispering ghost. The sky darkened, clouds thick and heavy, like the tension in the group.8964 copyright protection41PENANAZvATdzNnDr 維尼
Sol stood under the overhang, staring at nothing. His hoodie soaked. His jaw tight.8964 copyright protection41PENANARykTwB5jQD 維尼
Behind him, Rin sat, leaning against the water tank, trying not to look weak. His skin had paled. Sweat beaded on his forehead. He gripped his arm tightly under the long sleeve.8964 copyright protection41PENANAEFFY71co9R 維尼
Each throb of pain was louder than the last.8964 copyright protection41PENANAQqQRjVULbH 維尼
Jet and Tae argued over their next move.8964 copyright protection41PENANAnX7LOoyUaF 維尼
“We can’t just sit up here forever!” Tae snapped. “There are hundreds down there. If they break into the building, we’re dead.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAlrCJZbUtyq 維尼
Jet crossed his arms. “And what, we run out there and become lunch?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAi5JZdOdFue 維尼
“We should try for the admin building,” Mew said. “If the phones are still active, we might be able to contact someone.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAssQ6G2Rmmk 維尼
“Who?” Jet laughed bitterly. “The police? The army? No one’s coming.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAzde8GTW4pi 維尼
Sol turned, voice low but sharp. “We have to believe someone will.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAc21LVdxGLr 維尼
Everyone fell silent.8964 copyright protection41PENANAvyXfti35Oz 維尼
Eli, crouched near the ledge, watched them all quietly.8964 copyright protection41PENANAyqDZg2QET4 維尼
His gaze flicked to Rin.8964 copyright protection41PENANAlt0S61EJOw 維尼
And didn’t move.8964 copyright protection41PENANAJfxR2PTlCd 維尼

1:19 p.m.8964 copyright protection41PENANAdqF8rWfjxL 維尼
Rin’s vision blurred for a second.8964 copyright protection41PENANAtTgkNvltSF 維尼
He blinked hard.8964 copyright protection41PENANAAmzIwp7VTw 維尼
No. Not now.8964 copyright protection41PENANAXPDfrqCD2i 維尼
He pressed his fingers against the wound under his sleeve. It burned—like fire crawling under his skin.8964 copyright protection41PENANAMlgRDKPfwT 維尼
He heard footsteps and looked up.8964 copyright protection41PENANAC2asMIqztR 維尼
Sol stood there, holding a bottle of water and a protein bar.8964 copyright protection41PENANAVBkzC3biAY 維尼
“You need to eat something.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA5A6ul8AuBf 維尼
“I’m fine.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAiBjC1QmcLC 維尼
“You’re not.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA0oXT9VS7OO 維尼
Rin sighed and reached for the bar. Their fingers brushed.8964 copyright protection41PENANAJYj7TXwnHl 維尼
Sol didn’t pull away.8964 copyright protection41PENANAPoUZPHicJS 維尼
“You’re burning up,” Sol said softly.8964 copyright protection41PENANA9BnhNGAXU0 維尼
“I’ve had worse hangovers.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA7bK9IcZxTt 維尼
“Stop pretending.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAht7QfFdxnO 維尼
Rin looked at him, suddenly tired.8964 copyright protection41PENANAa7IOBvpQ5Z 維尼
“I don’t want to scare them.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAx9WiKxb01a 維尼
“You’re scared,” Sol whispered.8964 copyright protection41PENANAfQyt1qhhPe 維尼
Rin didn’t answer.8964 copyright protection41PENANAggnmz62hpc 維尼
Sol knelt in front of him. Rain still fell gently around them, the only sound for a moment.8964 copyright protection41PENANAbjzaEqfqJC 維尼
“I’m not going to let you go,” Sol said. “We’ll find a way.”8964 copyright protection41PENANABJqE4r4cSn 維尼
“You really believe that?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAkqg58i9Rpu 維尼
“I have to.”8964 copyright protection41PENANATRwGkbJvI5 維尼
Rin stared into his eyes.8964 copyright protection41PENANAfrHHmNZ0cx 維尼
Then leaned in slowly—8964 copyright protection41PENANAKJj1fuzg2F 維尼
Their foreheads touched.8964 copyright protection41PENANAzv9dPhB5uA 維尼
“I don’t want to turn into him,” Rin whispered. “Into Tinn.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAwL62vW2fMw 維尼
“You won’t.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA3kioF8V2kV 維尼
“I’m not strong like Eli. I’m not... special.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAtXRyeSRF4l 維尼
“You’re Rin,” Sol said firmly. “And that’s enough.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAlyTDlBW1xe 維尼

1:37 p.m.8964 copyright protection41PENANAgt8PytfUyg 維尼
Eli finally broke his silence.8964 copyright protection41PENANAOwTGOiBbu0 維尼
He walked straight to Jet and said, “He’s infected.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA9CoTDy18iF 維尼
Jet blinked. “Who?”8964 copyright protection41PENANA24znASkkwS 維尼
“Rin.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAJzF4KGrKo3 維尼
Jet froze. “Are you sure?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAoKADhO5818 維尼
“I saw the bite. He’s hiding it.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAZR8MSXRGsY 維尼
Tae overheard. “You’re serious?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAGZjKtock9e 維尼
“He got bit in the gym. They didn’t tell anyone.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA2cVix7GiO2 維尼
Jet’s face darkened. “So what? We just wait for him to turn and kill one of us?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAdxWjvtjfbm 維尼
“No,” Eli said softly. “He hasn’t changed. Not yet.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAUI4LGiShMy 維尼
“And you would know?” Tae snapped.8964 copyright protection41PENANA53tYXk0wu9 維尼
Eli didn’t flinch. “Yes. Because I’m the same.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA46Y0CtUfZn 維尼
The group froze.8964 copyright protection41PENANAOSRt3hUYnG 維尼
Jet stared at him. “What?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAzKmypA2gLR 維尼
“I was bitten too,” Eli said. “Two days ago. But I didn’t turn.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA9KAoFbHAuc 維尼
“You’re lying.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAr6Kb15ZE5a 維尼
“I’m not.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAKvWuZM5RYG 維尼
“Then how are you still... you?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAbegEk2MgKg 維尼
“I don’t know. I think some people… mutate differently. The virus doesn’t kill us—it merges.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAGZa3WK72E5 維尼
Tae took a step back. “So you’re saying Rin might be like you?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAVHGbr1wmlt 維尼
“He might,” Eli said. “But if you corner him, if you make him feel like a threat—he will become one.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA6TXKiiH4Lt 維尼
Jet looked shaken. “You should’ve told us sooner.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA35rn1Tgdan 維尼
“I didn’t because people like you panic.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAxOHmKgA72e 維尼
“Hey!”8964 copyright protection41PENANAEuVpL5XTWh 維尼
“Look around, Jet,” Eli snapped. “We’re all scared. But if you push this, if you turn this place into a witch hunt—none of us will make it out.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAt7nTV0oWyn 維尼

2:06 p.m.8964 copyright protection41PENANAbSGMqvkBZk 維尼
Rin was asleep when they came.8964 copyright protection41PENANAP1yyfivF20 維尼
Jet. Tae. Mew.8964 copyright protection41PENANAMywzuzPwdH 維尼
And Sol, standing between them and Rin.8964 copyright protection41PENANAp0PgZ3MsfD 維尼
“He’s sick,” Jet said. “We can’t ignore that.”8964 copyright protection41PENANA151BHEM6MI 維尼
Sol’s hands balled into fists. “He’s not a danger.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAZI0K1LX3Ja 維尼
“He will be.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAV3N2s8vs0e 維尼
“You didn’t see him fight for us. He could’ve killed Tinn—he risked himself to save me!”8964 copyright protection41PENANAKs1zV1NvgS 維尼
Tae looked uncertain. “What if he loses control?”8964 copyright protection41PENANAH1WwMZ3wKy 維尼
“Then I’ll stop him,” Sol said. “But until then... he stays.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAsa7is4mAHT 維尼
Jet turned to Mew. “Say something.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAwW8vSHPsnR 維尼
Mew shrugged. “If Sol’s willing to die for him, that’s his call. But if Rin so much as growls in his sleep, I’m not waiting around.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAvo6G05APlP 維尼
They left after that.8964 copyright protection41PENANAGOmmySi7he 維尼
Sol sat down beside Rin again.8964 copyright protection41PENANAuCuvnEhJgN 維尼
And felt the first tear hit his cheek.8964 copyright protection41PENANAvn9p0gQ2NN 維尼
Rin stirred.8964 copyright protection41PENANAPwtwb6C2fa 維尼
Opened his eyes.8964 copyright protection41PENANAbxkQQcbMxs 維尼
“You still here?” he whispered.8964 copyright protection41PENANAROmOSlQA7N 維尼
“Yeah,” Sol said, his voice breaking. “Always.”8964 copyright protection41PENANAJ9HwMGDoqM 維尼
---8964 copyright protection41PENANAcObNOCR4Ie 維尼
2:30 p.m.8964 copyright protection41PENANAjfzQLYdbKS 維尼
Eli sat alone near the edge of the roof, staring down at his trembling hands.8964 copyright protection41PENANAdMiFAk4dBo 維尼
He’d told the truth.8964 copyright protection41PENANAStdJCLXfpg 維尼
But not all of it.8964 copyright protection41PENANAbNHpn36MxE 維尼
He wasn’t just like Rin.8964 copyright protection41PENANAsx1nnnjUH7 維尼
He was changing.8964 copyright protection41PENANA2k3oOW56GJ 維尼
He could hear things.8964 copyright protection41PENANA43JVGjrKDI 維尼
Smell them.8964 copyright protection41PENANApMtUJAp3Bn 維尼
Feel the others.8964 copyright protection41PENANALIHDZ6qCJD 維尼
Even Tinn.8964 copyright protection41PENANAt0zfMIrRKT 維尼
He wasn’t just surviving anymore.8964 copyright protection41PENANAod7J1qWU5A 維尼
He was evolving.8964 copyright protection41PENANA8SRu45mlDq 維尼
