The Jerk is a Ghost

"Lalaine, you're insane! What's wrong with you? What did you eat and that's how you think. Hey! Bring back the old Lalaine !!" I just laughed at what Mir-chan said.

"Don't laugh at me! I'm serious here !!" Mir-chan yells at me, but I just ignore it.

"Mir-chan! We're going to do it tomorrow. Tomorrow, 1:00 in the afternoon. We'll take Monhi with us." Smiling I told him. He looked at me in an unbelievable-look. "Are you really serious about what you're planning to do ??" Mir-chan still couldn't believe his question to me.

"Now, now ... This isn't like you at all, Mir-chan. Just support and trust me with the process." I spoke to him with a wink. Mir-chan turned around again because of my unbelievable plan.

"Ugh, what can I do anyways ..." Mir-chan whispered, but just enough for me to hear it. I let out a smile and looked up at the sky. Wait for me, Raine. I won't just steal you.

"Yo, Monhi! Did you gathered enough information about Raine's house location?" I asked Monhi excitedly.

"Ehh .... He looked more excited than ever. Ain't he, Vladmir-kun?" Monhi asked Mir-chan.

"Jeez, this shrimp ..." Mir-chan said. Monhi sighed before speaking.

"Alright. So here are some informations I've gathered. It says she lived in the city of Hachioji, near Mt. Takao." Monhi's words to me. She lives at Hachioji huh? That's almost an hour ride from Shibuya.

"Hachioji, near Mt. Takao ... It didn't say how near their house is?" Mir-chan asked. "Ah! I've also read some information on net that there is one house standing in the dense part of the forest and that said, only a certain member of a family could enter that said house." Monhi replied.

"Ooh, a house built in the dense part of the forest, huh? There's probably some little road near Mt. Takao that could lead us there." I said seriously while holding the chin.

"We're not still sure if that's the house or if it's just a made up story on the net, Lalaine!" Mir-chan's sermon to me.

"Still, rumor or not we're going to susFirein that place. Now, now, let's get on our bikes and ride there." Smiling I command them. We started our motors, Monhi's taking a ride on Mir-chan's bike. We're coming, Raine.

After an hour and thirty minutes ....

We have finally reached Mt. Takao! There's not much people here, considering it's still September. We slowed down the functionality of our bikes to observe the surroundings. There must be a little road here somewhere. After minutes of finding we still couldn't find a way into the thick forest.

I parked my bike on the side of the road for a while to watch. Unbeknownst to me, Mir-chan and Monhi kept asking the people around them if they knew a way.

"Lalaine. It seems that the little road is true. Some people said that there was a black van who went into that road. The road's still up ahead. Let's go." Mir-chan's words to me. No matter when, you don’t really disappoint me. I followed him and a few minutes from riding we saw a road into the forest not far away. "Are we going in right away?" I heard Mir-chan ask. I immediately speeded up and went on the road. Mir-chan and I immediately followed them. My excitement intensifies as I continued to speed up.

"Are we still far? !!" I heard Mir-chan shout in the background.

"Let's find out !!" I shout back. I suddenly stopped my bike when I felt something. Mir-chan also stopped.

"What the f**k, Lalaine! I almost hit you!" Mir-chan cursed.

"A thought just came to mind. We shouldn't let our bikes be heard. We should go there and caught them by surprise." I word to them. They both looked at me dumbfounded.

"I'm so proud of you, Lalaine. You finally thought that!" Mir-chan's words to me. I don't know if I should feel happy or not. It seems like Mir-chan said it sarcastically. But oh well. We started walking down the road.

After long minutes of walking in the distance, I can see what it looks like a gate.

"Ooh! Look at that gate! It seems that we finally found Vinchin's house!" Monhi's smiling words pointed at the gate I could see. We're not as dumb as what y'all think. We didn't walked on the road, we walked in the forest alongside the road.

We are careful on our steps not to create much noise for them to get alert. As we walked near the gate the three of us stared. It's not just a normal gate .... It's a humongous gate !! There's a Ten days after what happened we stopped taking loots first. We still have enough stocks for six or more months.

Today, we practice our running with Swan, Lucas, Rev, Ford, Uno, Ailen, Mio, Noah, Claire, Stephanie, argh basta! All of us!

We decided to be practical first so that we don't get tired easily in case we have to run. We toured each house of still-curves.

The loophole in the back of a house, loophole again in the front. Back, front, back, front and go to another house.

If we manage to run that long we can escape the Sudis.

With our guns, ammunition is limited and we are saving. So we sometimes use our pistol.

Shields we're also upgraded. The trashbin's cap has screws and nails inside. Also, the lid of the pot is the same.

There was little change and our routine was repeated over ten days. On weekends we will have fun.

‘Neither one, no one came out of base. It's a bit boring because it's repeated but at least we're safe and no Sudis will suddenly appear. Two months nax but we haven't had an update out yet. We also stopped going out each month because it was dangerous.

For now, we're clueless on the events outside.

We are now inside the main house, relaxing and cooling off.

Stephanie and Claire made a shake. Oh di'ba !? There is still a fruit shake even with the apocalypse! We're just together! Char haha!

Swan and Qain along with Via are in their house. Yes, they have a new house.

They put Qain to rest because she is 4 months pregnant. His wife, wdaw, was accidentally injured on the way home because she was in a hurry to catch up with them and save them from the Sudis. Ayun, and the truck collided.

And I know, being pregnant isn't that easy. Especially without the child's father. Because when pregnant women are pregnant, they prefer what their husband buys from other people.

Qain was shy and I knew he was embarrassed to say what he was upset about which made me even more worried.

Because mama used to tell me, it's bad that when a pregnant woman conceives and is restrained, she can be with the child in the womb.

Back on topic, Hailee, and Lorraine cooked a hotdog and put it on bread, social bhies! Char hihi.

"Ah, Sofia, come with me. Imprinted logos will be delivered on both sides of the gate.

"Guys. I think-- I think we're in the wrong place." Monhi's reluctant words to us.
