Jinhyuk and Yeji were livelier than I thought.

There are times when no matter how still you are, your strength surges… It’s strange.

It was quite late now, and the two woke up to find the cat.

So I asked, and I was able to quickly understand the situation.

In the meantime, the kids in high school didn’t have much to do.

The older kids were better because they had something to do…

It was said that children like this were always neglected because they could not be made to work.

He said that playing with friends of similar age is just tiring, so he spends his time sleeping during the day.

It was quite heartbreaking to hear that.

It’s time to run around and have fun, but I can’t do anything like this.

Moreover, even if I wanted to watch a movie, it was said that this would be provided to soldiers first.

He said he often has a chance to see it, but they just play any movie.

It was because people were too busy to pay attention to their children.

Noh Chang-hoon must have been thinking of something, too, so he let the children watch the movie they wanted to see without saying anything.

As if that wasn’t enough, I even brought a bowl from somewhere for the two of us to eat.

We spent the time watching movies, eating snacks, and drinking drinks.

When I came to my senses, it must have been daytime, and sunlight was coming through the windows.

“Umm… ”

I tried to get up but failed.

It was because there were kids sleeping around me.

They were both sleeping holding each of my arms, so I felt like they would wake me up if I moved them wrong.

Moreover, the cat was lying on my stomach, using it as a bed.

If Noh Chang-hoon had seen it, he would have definitely laughed.

It was quite funny to that extent.

Fortunately, Noh Chang-hoon was still sleeping.

He seemed to have decided to give up his comfortable seat to the children, and was seen lying face down on his desk, covered only with a blanket.

When I saw that, I felt quite sorry.

Unlike me, he gets cold quite a bit.

So, I carefully got up without waking the kids, took a nearby blanket, covered it with Noh Chang-hoon, and went outside.

Not long after, Noh Chang-hoon walked out.

Judging from the expression on his face, it seemed like the bed wasn’t very comfortable.

I said with a sheepish smile.

“Did you wake up because it was cold?”

“There’s that, and there’s also the fact that I woke up on my own because it felt like it was morning.”

“I covered him with a blanket so he could sleep well, ugh.”

“If nothing happens, I’m going to sleep again.”

Noh Chang-hoon yawned as if he was tired.

Honestly, I was just tired.

Yesterday’s schedule must have been quite difficult, so we headed to the bookstore together that night.

From there, they raided the city for a bit of reconnaissance and even fought a battle with a poisonous insect.

What if that was the end?

He brought a lot of books and toys with me, and then we watched movies until late at night.

Plus, I cleaned up after the kids and I went to bed.

Meanwhile, he gave up his seat to us and fell asleep on his stomach.

What was even stranger was that I wasn’t tired.

I guess I can say things like this now because I have transcended humans to some extent.

“Nothing will happen. Scouting… Take care of supplies… It will be the end.”

“Speaks like someone who has been here for a long time.”

“Is that so?”

“What… done. If anything had happened, you would have come looking for me in the morning.”

Noh Chang-hoon grumbled.

They say that taking a nap due to lack of sleep is not suited to your temperament.

However, it was obvious that he would be bothered if someone asked him to do the work.

I saw you peeking up the stairs earlier.

If it’s a light task, he’ll pass it on to me, and if it’s a light task, he’ll take me with him and ask me to go with him.

Noh Chang-hoon looked around for a moment, then gestured to me and said.

“Please lift the blanket.”

“Can’t you hear it alone?”

“Cursor.”

“How big is the blanket?”

“You’ll know when you see it.”

Noh Chang-hoon’s words were accurate.

I could tell when I saw it.

Even though it was rolled up like a ball, it was enough to cover Noh Chang-hoon’s upper body.

Aside from the weight, it was obvious that at this level, my vision would be blocked and I would not be able to move.

So after folding the blanket, I held the front and had Noh Chang-hoon hold the back.

And then we went back to the classroom as if we were playing trains.

While going back, I saw several people.

Some people had just woken up and were about to start their work day, while others were just finishing their work day.

Soldiers were also seen waking up in the morning by cantering on the playground.

Ye-ji Lee’s father was also seen climbing over the school wall faster than anyone else and unlike others.

“It’s peaceful.”

“It’s only temporary.”

“It’s bittersweet.”

This was because I was lucky.

I happened to get it while dealing with a monster.

It’s just something you get by backing down, so to speak.

I sighed deeply.

I needed something to change my mood.

And it wasn’t long before I found it.

“Changhoon, you. Did we clean up after ourselves at dawn?”

“Yes. But, why.”

“It was like the head of a household. Just like my dad.”

“Daddy.”

“Didn’t you say you like kids? Anyway, it was quite something to see, right?”

“Then, are you the wife?”

“What is this guy talking about? He’s a colleague, dude. Tomodachi. Is that right?”

Noh Chang-hoon chuckled.

At times like this, I couldn’t believe that he and I had fought to the death.

If I had known that we would become this close, I wouldn’t have bothered him like that in real life.

Oh my god, this won’t happen very often.

The only friend I can share my feelings with is the person I bullied to death.

So he was making a strange expression, but Noh Chang-hoon spoke as if he had finally remembered.

“True.”

“Huh?”

“What happened to your dream? That, nightmares or sleepwalking.”

“Oh? Why?”

“You were still a little quiet today, are you feeling better?”

“… Well, I don’t know.”

I was sure I was having a nightmare.

After leaving the officetel, I exposed my bare skin and started wearing a headset.

And that hasn’t changed until now.

For some reason, I felt weird when I didn’t expose my bare skin, and no matter how many times I took off my headset, I was still wearing it when I came to.

So the situation cannot be said to have improved.

Perhaps, I could have had fewer nightmares today because Lee Ye-ji and Kang Jin-hyuk were together.

Or maybe animal therapy.

Perhaps because he read my expression, Noh Chang-hoon didn’t say anything.

After returning to the classroom, I covered the children who were fast asleep with new blankets and lay down.

Before long, Noh Chang-hoon also fell asleep, and I watched the four of us for a while.

Ye-ji Lee sleeping with a cat and a cat snuggling in Ye-ji Lee’s arms.

Even Kang Jin-hyuk, who is fast asleep, and Noh Chang-hoon, who is motionless as if dead.

If only I had the role of wife, it seemed like we would really be a family of four.

“Family… ”

To be honest, I never thought about having children.

Not only did I not achieve much, but I actually had no confidence in raising my child well.

Moreover, I couldn’t even make friends of the same sex properly, let alone friends of the opposite sex.

So, naturally, the family I was the head of was from a far away country.

“I think it would be okay to have children.”

“What?”

“What, weren’t you sleeping?”

“I just closed my eyes. Rather, what?”

“I think it would be okay to have children. I am also married and only my wife, ”

Noh Chang-hoon made a pitiful expression.

I smiled sheepishly. It was because I had forgotten that my body had changed into a woman.

Anyway, other than when I felt like I was going to die, I couldn’t think of anything, so it was difficult.

You won’t get arrested just because it’s an apocalypse, but what if you happen to go into the men’s restroom by mistake?

… When I think about it again, it seems really stupid.

The men’s restroom isn’t the problem.

I sat and watched the four of us for a while longer and then went out of the classroom.

I was starting to feel hungry, and I was feeling a bit sore.

Fortunately, there was a lot to do here.

Captain Han had to keep making plans for the survival of the community, and there were not enough people.

So there was no need to be bored because there was nothing to do.

After eating breakfast, we received orders from Captain Han and carried the materials.

Then, when asked for help with the laundry, I stepped on the blanket and had a conversation with Lee Ye-ji’s mother, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time.

In the meantime, we took care of the young children together and rushed to get medicine.

Learn first aid, go out on reconnaissance again, and come back to use your strength.

They took the initiative to do things that they would not have done in the past because they were too bothersome, and brought vitality to the community.

After that, time passed quickly.

Because we had to understand the movements of the zombies before advancing, reconnaissance was conducted several times a day.

The people standing on the defensive line gradually began to become more disciplined, and the soldiers carefully planned their operations.

Survivors nearby also prepared for the coming war by stockpiling food and water.

I too was busy wandering around for a while.

It was okay to just take a nap if you wanted to.

So during the day, I followed other people to scout or bring supplies, and at night, I went around bookstores and department stores and collected toys.

Fortunately, I didn’t see anything strange while walking around.

There was no news as to whether the poisonous insects that attacked me and Noh Chang-hoon the other day had returned to their positions.

Of course, I couldn’t see the zombies.

After a few more days passed, the march began with full-scale support from Captain Han Dae-wi.

Actually, to put it in a grandiose way, it was a march…

In reality, it was nothing more than a walk.

We had already confirmed several times that there were no dangerous elements, and cleaning was repeated every time we went out to scout.

So all we had to do was climb up the empty building one more time, search inside, and say that there was no problem.

After everything was over, the military base was busy for a while.

This was because people who had been in the rear had been drafted in to fill the gap.

So, for a while, I continued to carry materials and toil with Noh Chang-hoon.

Still, it seemed like my efforts weren’t in vain, and now it wouldn’t matter if I left.
