The day before Precautions

Everyone was busy relaxing on their own way. Cedric is with Yule and Zoe in their room, making a bond together unconsciously.

" Is Big bwothew Yu stawing ( staying ) with Zoe and Big bwothew Ceddy? Awe we sweeping ( sleeping ) together? Awe we? Awe we? " Zoe's hazel eyes looked so full of curiosity to the point where both the 'big bwothews' in front saw it sparkling.

Cedric gracefully sat down at the edge of the big bed where Zoe is laying, followed by the softened Yule. He stroked the little girl's hand with his thumb carefully, before answering her question.

" Will Zoe like it? If big brother Yule sleep here with us? " Cedric's questions were directly answered by Zoe who excitedly nodded her head.

" Yes! Zoe like it! Zoe like it! "

Zoe's excited outburst made Yule and Cedric smile. Almost forgetting the fact that they are in an Apocalypse.

" Then Yule will stay here with Zoe and Cedric. " Yule stated making Zoe giggle and Cedric smile at his friends soft side for the child. Although it was already decided that he will stay in their room from the beginning.

The trio stayed in their shared room. Bonding together and putting their worries aside for tommorow. Teasing and playing with each other. Making smiles on their faces through out the day.

In one of the connected rooms, Adrien and Cyrus are also 'bonding' together in Adrien's computer room with their fellow hacker, Claire. The 'bond' of gossips and fangirling.

After Adrien contacted Claire from Philippines, they finished their business discussion and turned to the topic of gossips and fangirling. Cyrus who just returned from arranging the new additions their rooms also joined in their gossiping and Fangirling, although he's just watching them in most of the time.

" Do you know EXO or Girls Generation? " Claire asked, completely excited to 4th gossip about the things she found.

" I think so– "

" Oohhh~ I know them! Is there some news about them? Tell me! Quick! " Adrien interjected. Also excited to gossip.

" OMG!!! They sent a video on the internet! The two groups are together!!! " Claire exclaimed, tapping something on her phone then showing the two curios boys screenshots of men and women. " Here! Baekhyun is hugging Taeyeon on the back~!! "

Adrien squealed while Cyrus smiled not at the picture but to Adrien's cuteness. Who knew, a anti-social or loner like Adrien would only need gossips to open up from his shell.

" Like. I was questioning, 'Why are they together?' 'Does SM have a secret project? ' ' Is Exoshidae real?' or 'Are Baekyeon like, in a relationship again– "

" Kyaaahhh~ Baekyeon is real! "

At Adrien's fanboying squeal, Claire's face brightened. Finally having another fan just like her. Seeing his reaction, Claire started rambling all about the things she heard and knew, occasionally squealing and giggling at something with Adrien or even Cyrus.

Both fangirl and fanboy continued squealing while Cyrus watch them at side smiling at the fact that both are more comfortable with each other than yesterday.

It seems like these two will definitely become best friends in a short amount of time, and it seems that their spirits and hope in this horrible Apocalypse did not go away at all.

On the other connected room, The new trio additions are huddled around Cyrus's phone that they requested.

Uriel and Caleb looked at Allison, giving her a sign to use it. Both were worried of Allison as she was the only one who really needed the phone to contact her missing Brothers.

Allison took the phone without hesitation, eager to call his brothers to know if they're safe or not. Her eyes were glossy, almost ready to cry to hear the upcoming news.

Putting his eldest brothers phone then dialing it. All of them waited for the other side to answer but no one answered. It continued on and on again. It was already Allison's 12th time to call yet none were answered, none were accepted.

Allison burst out crying. She knew she just said a while ago that she was already fine with her parents zombification but in her heart, it was a lie. It was 100% lie.

Still having hopes of his 2nd elder brother to answer. She dialed the number she always remembered, impatiently waiting for the other side to answer or accept his call. Frustration started to enter her body's system when again, no one answered. Her brothers didn't answer.

Uriel and Caleb who watched their best friend's crying outburst at sideline felt sorrowful. Although they didn't knew her brothers that well, they also felt sad that they might be dead or a zombie now. Both boys hugged their sobbing best friend to at least ease the pain she felt a little.

The room was full of Allison's sobbing noise and her best friends whispered comforting words as they also let the river of tears roll on their faces.

The day was full of emotions in the Bennett's Residence. With laughs, smiles, tears and sobs of both happiness and sadness. The new little family that will make memories together although still distant for now made it to another tommorow as a new string of hope and their strings fate were connected to each other.
