Apocalypse: Apparently, I Can See Zombies

Huff…

Huff…

Huff…

Jin-woo, Yoon-min, and Micah came to a stop after finally finishing the twenty laps. A few students who were watching the final match of the mini-tournament glanced at them with knowing smiles before turning back to see Ye-jun scoring the fifth point for his team. The girls' cheers filled the entire gymnasium.

The reason these students were giving Jin-woo and the others knowing smiles was because they had intentionally slowed down their pace when running. By the time they finished the twenty laps, the session was about to end, giving Teacher Park no chance to target them again.

Teacher Park did give them dark looks from time to time as they ran, but that was all he could do as he didn't state how fast they should complete the laps.

So Jin-woo, Yoon-min, and Micah still ended up running for the entire session, however, they had paced themselves, so they weren't exhausted after.

Nonetheless, they were still a bit tired, especially Yoon-min.

The three stopped some distance away from the crowd of students watching the game. Yoon-min immediately dropped to the ground to rest followed by Micah.

Jin-woo remained standing, and though he looked relatively less exhausted than Micah and Yoon-min, his face dripped with sweat and his light blue P.E. shirt had patches of wet marks on it. Jin-woo pinched and pulled his collar to unstick his shirt from his skin, while also trying to cool himself down.

"Damn it, Micah, fan me."

Yoon-min said as he shifted to sit between Micah's legs with his back leaning against him. A content expression appeared on Yoon-min face when Micah complied and started fanning him with his hands. However, Yoon-min happened to glance up at Jin-woo to see he was still standing, clicking his tongue he said.

"How can you still stay standing? Looks like they don't call you Mr. Multitalented for nothing."

Jin-woo glanced over at Yoon-min and Micah, and it suddenly came to him that there might be more to their relationship. However, he quickly stopped his overthinking train of thought and chose not to ask.

Jin-woo opened his mouth to respond to Yoon-min, however, loud cheering suddenly came from the crowd of students.

Jin-woo looked, and by listening to their shouts he found out the mini-tournament had finished.

"*Tsk*…That guy's team won."

Seong said from the side while looking through the crowd at Ye-jun. Everyone was singing his praises.

"Looks like our Class President's team won, but that's because he wasn't up against our school's Mr. Multitalented and Micah!"

Yoon-min said while looking over at the cheering crowd as well.

Jin-woo didn't show much reaction as he looked on. He soon glanced away to look at his watch.

It was 11:52 am.

"Okay, the mini-tournament is over, and the winner is Class President Ye-jun's team for the boys, while the girl's tournament was won by Eun-ju's team."

Eun-ju was a rather tall and beautiful girl who wore a ponytail. With one look one would be able to tell she was quite athletic.

The students all cheered after Teacher's Park's announcement. However, he calmed everyone down to say once again.

"The session is about to end for lunch, but I want you all to gather at the tennis court outside, I have something important to announce."

Jin-woo had been watching from afar and suddenly saw Teacher Park briefly glance at him. He wasn't the only one who saw this, Yoon-min said with a frown.

"Did he just glance at us?"

"No, he was glancing at me."

Jin-woo said with a calm expression, however, Yoon-min corrected him.

"No, he was glancing at us."

He especially emphasized 'us.'

"If he really is planning on targeting you in front of everyone, we're not just going to stand by and do nothing."

Micah added.

"Right! But I don't get it, why is he targeting you? Did something happen?"

Yoon-min said while looking up at Jin-woo.

Jin-woo paused, but before he could say anything, Teacher Park continued speaking.

"You guys can go take a break to drink some water and change if you want before meeting up, but if you don't want to lose a few minutes of your lunchtime then you should probably make it quick."

The students hearing that all either rush towards the gymnasium bathroom or the exit to get to their class.

"I'll tell you guys later."

Jin-woo said before he turned to leave. Yoon-min and Micah couldn't get a word in as Jin-woo rushed off.

Outside, a few students chose to head to the public water pipes next to the gymnasium to cool down. Jin-woo went unnoticed as he walked by a group of boys who had found a hose from somewhere and were taking turns spraying each other.

Looking at this scene one would think that these youths were still in middle school, though perhaps it's that they haven't fully adjusted to being a High Schooler yet.

The laughter from the group faded from Jin-woo's senses as he went to the far corner of the gymnasium. There was a row of water pipes here for students to drink from, but due to remoteness, not many students come by here.

Jin-woo, after drinking a few mouthfuls of water took off his glasses and used his shirt to wipe his face.

"Jin, are you really planning on telling Yoon-min and Micah about Teacher Park?"

"I-"

Before Jin-woo could respond, a figure suddenly popped out from around the nearby corner before grabbing Jin-woo's shirt and pulling it further over his face with one hand while using another to firmly wrap around his neck.

"Did you really think you could get away from me so easily?"

A voice filled with amused mockery whispered into Jin-woo's ear. He recognized the voice.

It was Seo-joon.

'Damn it.'

Jin-woo cursed internally. He hadn't seen Seo-joon or his lackeys when he entered the gymnasium, so he thought he had gone off to some bathroom to smoke. However, he would have never expected that he would be waiting for him here.

But how did Seo-joon know he would be here, or was it just a coincidence?
