Chapter Title: Han Su-ji
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Su-ji felt like her spirits were soaring under the cascading shower water.
"Phew... How long has it been since my last shower..."
The place Ji-ah had brought her to was the shower room in the swimming pool building inside what appeared to be school grounds.
A fragrant body wash and cool, clean water streams.
If heaven existed, wouldn't it be like this?
Just a few hours ago, she had been fleeing from zombies, and it still didn't feel real.
'No zombies around here... What is this place?'
After a long shower, Ji-ah approached as she came out.
"Sis, put these clothes on."
"Huh? New clothes? Even new underwear... What's this?"
"Your old clothes were too dirty, so I threw them all away. That's okay, right?"
"Huh? Oh..."
They were clothes worn threadbare until frayed.
Especially her panties, with holes that kept getting bigger.
If she was giving her clean new clothes,
there was no reason to feel upset about it.
"You like sportswear, right? I picked something that suits you, Sis."
"Yeah. Thanks..."
Su-ji, looking dazed, dressed neatly and headed out with Ji-ah.
"You. You're really okay?"
She looked fine, but Su-ji checked Ji-ah's expression once more.
Seeing Su-ji's worried face warmed Ji-ah's heart.
"Sis~ You came all the way here... Thank you so much."
Thinking of how Su-ji must have struggled to find her, Ji-ah felt guilty and hugged her tight.
She couldn't help but be touched by Su-ji, who had come searching out of worry for her.
Su-ji felt her own heart warm as she patted Ji-ah's back.
Ji-ah seemed much brighter and more at ease than when she was with that previous survivor group.
"Sis, you don't have to worry about me anymore. I'm not the old me. Want to see?"
"Huh?"
...
...
...
Ji-ah suddenly pulled a small pebble from her pocket.
Su-ji tilted her head at Ji-ah pulling out a random pebble.
At that moment, the pebble floated into the air and began spinning around Su-ji and Ji-ah.
"Wha??? Huh? You. You?"
"Hehe. Surprised, Sis? It's telekinesis. I became a superpowered awakener."
Su-ji herself had superior physical abilities beyond ordinary people, but Ji-ah's seemed like true superpower stuff.
"Ji-ah, our Ji-ah has superpowers..."
"Sis!"
...
...
...
"That old guy did all this???"
The table and chairs were one thing.
But the neatly laid carpet on the floor, the fridge, the shelves packed with canned goods, cup ramen, and instant foods.
Two little girls sat on the sofa, entranced by some Disney animation on a massive TV.
Su-ji felt a sense of dislocation, like she was in another world.
"Th-this is..."
"Hehe. I did the interior decorating. Nice, right?"
Ji-ah pulled a cold cola from the fridge.
The cool metallic chill of the can.
"Co-cola! And it's cold!"
Su-ji savored the nostalgic tear-jerking familiarity and the sharp fizz hitting her throat.
"Am I already dead and dreaming? I hope it's not a dream."
"Sis, honestly~"
"So, who's this?"
Chae-won asked coldly, eyeing Su-ji.
"She's the sis who took care of me before I met Un-ho oppa."
Ji-ah said, hugging Su-ji.
"Don't look at me so suspiciously... I just came to find Ji-ah."
Su-ji scratched her head.
"........."
"Ji-ah. Um..."
Su-ji could tell from the vibe that things between Ji-ah and Un-ho were more than ordinary.
She was curious, but it wasn't easy to bring up.
"Yeah? What?"
An innocent, pure expression as she asked back.
There wasn't a trace of shadow on her face.
"That... old guy and..."
"Oh! Un-ho oppa? Oh! Don't tell me you fell for him too, Sis?"
"N-no! If you like him, that's fine..."
Su-ji panicked and denied it desperately at Ji-ah's words.
The good thing was Ji-ah looked genuinely happy, without any pretense.
Only then did Su-ji relax a bit.
"How'd you two meet?"
"He saved me when I was dragged off by bad guys. Oppa was my savior."
Ji-ah's eyes glazed over, reminiscing.
She seemed to have developed quite the fondness for Un-ho who rescued her from crisis.
"Ah, that..."
Su-ji had seen it too.
The crumpled van and three headless corpses.
And in that van, she found her comrades' backpacks.
Seeing that, she thought Ji-ah had been rescued or escaped.
Or maybe captured by others.
She could have stopped searching then, assuming the best, but she needed to see Ji-ah safe with her own eyes.
"Hey... what about your bros?"
"Bros? Ah, those guys... They're probably surviving on their own, right?"
They were the ones who tucked tail when she said she'd go after the looters to save Ji-ah.
Whatever happened to them didn't matter.
-Clunk.
A burly man opened the door and entered.
"Un-ho oppa~"
"Old man~"
Led by Ji-ah, the little kids clung to his legs, hugging tight.
Un-ho, accustomed to such welcomes from Ji-ah and the kids, showed no particular reaction.
"Let's eat."
"Pizza! Chicken!"
Su-ji wondered what the little girl was saying.
There was no way such things existed.
She looked pityingly at the innocent kids happily clinging to Un-ho.
"Since we have a guest today, let's have jjajangmyeon."
"Wow~ Jjajangmyeon."
And steaming jjajangmyeon and sweet-and-sour pork appeared on the table.
"No way... Crazy! What the hell is this?!"
Su-ji could only gape at the hot feast materializing on the empty table.
...
...
...
To Su-ji, Un-ho was a mysterious man—strong enough to sweep away zombies, and more.
She couldn't help being curious about him.
As bedtime came, she also learned that Ji-ah and Un-ho were living together.
The floor would have been fine for her, but Chae-won offered her own bed.
Chae-won had seemed a bit cold at first, but quietly took good care of her.
"What the hell were those abilities?? Superpowers too?"
"Superpowers... probably."
"The world's so unfair. Some get just a mouse-tail of strength..."
"Some don't even have that mouse-tail..."
Chae-won chided her.
"Ah... Sorry."
"It's fine."
"What's Un-ho like?"
"A good guy."
To Chae-won, he might have seemed like an ordinary do-gooder in the old days,
but now bread crumbs and sips of water were precious.
In this harsh world, he hadn't abandoned his burdensome group but brought them here.
He seemed a bit of a womanizer, but she couldn't deny he was good.
Chae-won had initially teamed up with Un-ho out of necessity.
She'd seen his abilities and lacked confidence to survive with her sister alone.
But she hadn't expected this luxurious life.
"H-he didn't force Ji-ah or anything?"
Su-ji wouldn't blame him even if he'd demanded Ji-ah's body.
Ji-ah's beauty was enough to drive any man wild.
Life mattered more than that body anyway.
If Ji-ah seemed unhappy, it'd be different, but she didn't.
Her looks probably helped her survive this long.
"Force her? No. If anything, Ji-ah sis..."
"J-Ji-ah?"
"I thought she wasn't the type, with her subtly high nose..."
Su-ji had seen Ji-ah before—she was kind to men but kept a subtle distance.
That probably drove them crazy for her.
"Must've been that desperate, huh..."
"Desperate?"
"You know..."
"........."
Now she was a superpowered awakener, but before, her face was her only asset.
-Hng. Ah. Ah. Ah.
A faint woman's moaning voice...
"Th-that..."
"Haa... It's the old man and Ji-ah sis having sex. What else?"
Chae-won said irritably.
"S-sex?!"
-Gulp.
"If you're interested, Sis, go check it out. He won't say no."
"Wh-what nonsense! I have no such thoughts!"
...
...
...
-Trickle.
Su-ji woke from a comfortable sleep in bed for the first time in ages and relieved herself refreshingly in the bathroom.
"Phew... Now I feel human again..."
After constant tension, this comfort was long overdue.
-Aaaahng.
As she exited the bathroom, Ji-ah's cries echoed softly down the hall.
"Ah, still going..."
-Gulp.
The door to Ji-ah's room was slightly ajar, soft light leaking out.
She found herself drawn to it unconsciously.
'J-just a peek.'
Through the gap, she saw two entwined bodies.
Ji-ah was on top of Un-ho, shaking her hips while frantically sucking his lips.
-Mm. Smack. Slurp. Smack.
Un-ho lightly stroked her round ass approvingly.
Far from forced, it looked like Ji-ah was devouring him.
'Wha-what the...'
An absurdly thick pillar was stretching her pussy wide between her ass cheeks, thrusting in and out.
'That thing fits inside???'''
At the lewd sight, Su-ji swallowed dryly without realizing.
-Gulp.
-Squelch. Squelch. Squelch.
The bedroom rang with sticky friction sounds.
Ji-ah's hip movements sped up.
"O-oppa, I'm... haa!!"
Ji-ah suddenly clung to Un-ho's body, trembling.
The thick shaft buried in her pussy pulsed, injecting something deep inside.
'Gasp!!! C-creampie!!! Ji-ah!! Wh-what if you get pregnant!!'
Su-ji inwardly freaked, calling out to Ji-ah.
Ji-ah slumped over Un-ho, drained.
The cock still rigidly embedded like a thick tube in her pussy was vividly clear.
-Drip...
Only then did Su-ji realize her own panties were soaked.
'Th-this...'
That's when her eyes met Un-ho's as he lay there.
Her heart dropped.
'Eek!!'
-Dash.
Embarrassed, Su-ji fled the spot in a hurry.
