Bogum cowered and stepped back.

I was so shocked I didn't know what to say.

Me : What?

? no.10 : I asked if you're sure you're not infected. Hey, who the hell brought him here?

Bogum : J-Jenny! Why are you being so mean to him?! He's my friend!

Jenny : Friend? Who cares if he's everyone's best friend? What if he turns into a zombie all of a sudden and kills us all? Don't you remember how we just barely were able to get here? So every time we are out, we are going to bring a friend back here?

Namjoon : Jenny! We should help others when we can.

Jungkook : *nod*...Yeah, we need survivors.

Jenny : Oh, is that right? Then, let's say that's the case.

Jenny turned her head and glared at me.

Jenny : So when do you plan to leave?

Me : Oh?

Jenny : Well, you've been saved, Is there anything else you need from us?

...What?

She continued to cut me off.

Jenny : We're running out of food. And everytime we go outside, we risk our lives to find more. We're not exactly in a place to help others. Am I wrong?

? no.7 : Isn't she right? We can't just bring people here and drain our resources. I think we should send him out.

Me : ...

Their hostility toward me made me nervous.

How naïve of me to think I had met nice people.

Bogum : Are you insane? Don't you know what it's like out there?

? no.8 : I don't think it's such a terrible idea to let him stay.

It didn't seem like they'd ever come to an agreement.

Namjoon thought for a second, before tapping me on the shoulder.

Then he drew everyone's attention.

Namjoon : You seem to have something to say, right?

Me : Uh, yeah.

Namjoon : Haha, I thought as much. Well, I think everyone's ready to listen.

Me : Thanks.

Jenny : Oh my God. You've got to be kidding me! Do you like him or something? Why are you taking his side?

? no.6 : That's enough, Jenny. I want to hear what he has to say, too.

The other boy, who hadn't said a word, interrupted Jenny, and looked at me.

What should I do now?

Right. I have to explain first.

Me : Once you are infected the symptoms arise within an hour.

Jungkook : *nod*...He isn't infected.

Jenny : How do you know it can't take longer? I can't take that risk.

? no.6 : Jenny, let's just hear him out.

Me : I know you guys don't want me here, but I promise I can make myself useful.
