Lin Ke really hated her desk mate. It wasn't because her desk mate was pretty, got good grades, and was the perfect example of someone else's kid.
It wasn't because her desk mate hardly ever spoke, was always icy, and ignored her.
The main reason was that she was always reporting Lin Ke to the teacher.
When Lin Ke didn't pay attention in class, she'd raise her hand.
When Lin Ke talked to the student in front of them, she'd raise her hand too.
When Lin Ke told that student she liked them, she called the teacher over to witness it.
So Lin Ke hated her desk mate, Xu Xing.
But then one day, the apocalypse came.
The instant a mutated monster lunged at them, Xu Xing stepped in front of Lin Ke and was bitten.
Xu Xing hacked off the monster's head with a single swing. Blood splattered across her face as she smiled warmly at Lin Ke.
She said, "Lin Ke, I can't protect you anymore."
She said, "Lin Ke, I love you."
Lin Ke found her desk mate in an abandoned factory.
Xu Xing had lost her mind. The moment she saw Lin Ke, she lunged at her.
She pinned Lin Ke to the ground and bared her teeth.
But...
She didn't bite down.
Reader's guide:
No superpowers, no men (don't overthink it).
At first, they bicker and flee through the apocalypse. There's a stretch in the middle with real zombies, but Xu Xing will be cured later.
Slow burn, unconventional apocalypse, passionate friends helping one another. A story about kindness and goodness.
