At the sandbank, Saeko and Takashi are currently resting and after Takashi"s sudden question the atmosphere between the two became awkward."Shall we leave now?" said Saeko because it is really getting late and they don"t want to delay anymore because the others will get worried about them.
"I think it is better to spend the night here at the sandbank because it is already night time and during this time of day, going outside would be dangerous" said Takashi because they"ve lost the sunlight so it"s hard to depend on the vehicle"s light for their only source of vision and they"ll be safe here at the sandbank because the walkers can"t cross the river.
"Are you sure about that? The others will get worried" said Saeko. "It"s better to be safe than to rush towards them, they"ll understand" said Takashi.
"Well you"re the man, Komuro" said Saeko as she submitted to Takashi"s proposal. "Then let"s build a fire, it"s getting cold" said Saeko because even though they"ll attract the walker"s attention by building a fire it is fine because the walkers can"t get to them anyways.
"Oh wait let me fetch some materials to burn and a match at the vehicle" said Takashi as he went to the vehicle and scavenge for things to burn.
Night has come and the city is way too quiet making it look like a ghost town except for the low growls being emitted by the walkers no other sound could be heard.
After a few minutes, Takashi have constructed a fire and both of them surrounded it, for it is cold tonight.
Saeko is now all dried up but she hasn"t still returned Takashi"s jacket, she wanted to wear it more until tomorrow, not being a weirdo but Takashi"s scent has infatuated Saeko.
Takashi and Saeko are sitting right besides each other around the fire, the atmosphere is quiet none of them are willing to talk,they just focus their gaze on the fire burning at their front.
Saeko then began to slowly move closer and closer to Takashi without him noticing. Saeko is now so close to Takashi that both of their shoulders touch each other.
"Ahh, Saeko..." Takashi can"t help but blush and stutter when he saw Saeko so close to him. Saeko didn"t speak but instead leaned her head towards Takashi"s shoulders.
"Komuro, i am a woman right?" asked Saeko as she revealed her seductive cleavage right at Takashi. Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s are tightly fixed at her clothes because it just dried and due to the heat of the fire it made her cleavage sweat a little adding more allure to her already perfect charisma.
Takashi swept his gaze away from Saeko"s cleavage and said, "yes of course" said Takashi as he kept on looking at the sky to divert his attention.
Saeko can"t help but smile after hearing Takashi"s reply, "in what way?" she asked.
"Well, even though you"re different from most of the girls and are stronger than most of the boys, all i see is a responsible woman that knows how to protect herself instead of clinging to others and for me that"s an excellent trait of a woman that most females lack" said Takashi.

Saeko is surprised about Takashi"s reply because she have never thought that Takashi is matured enough despite him being younger than herself.
"I"ll guard for the rest of the night, you go and have a rest, Saeko" said Takashi, he was about to stand up but was stopped by Saeko.
She then tugged Takashi"s arms and said, "don"t leave me" as she suddenly hugged Takashi with her b.o.o.bs tightly pressed on his back.
"Saeko, please don"t be a tease" said Takashi because he can"t fall for the same trick again. "I"m serious, Komuro" said Saeko as she held Takashi in her embrace.
"Saeko..." Takashi then turned around as he also embraced Saeko, he placed his head above her shoulder and said, "don"t worry, I"ll always be here".
"Uhm" said Saeko as she silently cried in Takashi"s embrace beads of tears rolled down her face because she have never felt this kind of sensation, the feeling of belonging to someone.
The night pa.s.sed with the two of them sleeping together with their bodies close to each other, with the serene and quiet night, this memory would forever be engraved to the both of them.
NOTE: They didn"t have s.e.x(hahaha).
The sun is now up in the sky and Saeko was just about to wake up. There he saw Takashi staring at the sunrise with his shotgun by his side. Saeko can"t help but blush as she reminisced what she have done last night.
"Saeko, good morning" said Takashi with a hint of shyness showing from his face because he didn"t expect that her senior Saeko would do that.
"G-good morning" said Saeko as she stuttered and hurried herself to stand up.
"Should we leave now? There are less of them" said Saeko as she observes their surroundings. "ah, yeah" said Takashi as they used the 6 wheeled vehicle to cross the river.
The route is relatively smooth because it"s still early in the morning and it seems that walkers are slow during early mornings.
But when they"ve ventured deeper and deeper, the walkers are also beginning to show up and the vehicle is nearly out of gas so they"ve no choice but to abandon it and walk the rest of the way.
"Let"s go, Saeko. We can go out the east exit and we"ll end up behind Takagi"s house" said Takashi as they arrived at a park.
"I see, understood!" said Saeko as she dashed at the walkers up front and began to whack them crazy. The look on Saeko"s eyes sent chills down Takashi"s spine. "Is that, Saeko?" thought Takashi as she followed Saeko on her carnage.
"Now, I have no reason to hold back" said Saeko after sending a walker flying straight at the park"s center fountain. Takashi can"t feel but to be amazed by how strong Saeko is, he knew Saeko is good with the sword but not this good.
Saeko continued her carnage of walkers but suddenly she stopped, "Saeko, what"s wrong?!" said Takashi but then he saw two small children that have already been turned into a walker baring their teeth at Saeko.
Seeing that Saeko is dazed by them, Takashi immediately dashed in front of her and kicked the two walkers then grabbed Saeko"s hand as he lead her towards a shrine.
They then arrived at the shrine and went inside a temple, "Saeko, what happened there?" asked Takashi but Saeko ignored him and sat at a corner.
Seeing that Saeko doesn"t want to answer his question, Takashi walked around the shrine and found a katana. "Hey, this is a real katana" he said as he draw the weapon out from its scabbard.
Takashi then went to Saeko to hand over the katana because he doesn"t know how to use one. "Here you go, Saeko" he said as he put the weapon at Saeko"s side.
Seeing Saeko"s gloomy mood, "we have one, Saeko" Takashi said as he sat to the opposite side of Saeko.
"We have one what?" said Saeko, then Takashi handed her something.
"This is a portable toilet, Milady Saeko" whispered Takashi in Saeko"s ear. Saeko can"t help but laugh at what Takashi"s been doing to lift up her mood and it is indeed working as her problems are beginning to lessen.
"Why you..."Saeko can"t finish what she"s about say because she"s just laughing way too much about Takashi"s portable toilet joke." Hey, don"t laugh about that"said Takashi as he also smiled. Takashi have succeeded in bringing Saeko"s mood a little bit higher because seeing her being down like that is making his heart ache.
"I-i am happy" said Saeko as she looked at Takashi in the eye. After some time, "you are not going to pry about what happened lately?" asked Saeko.
"Well, it must be a pretty big reason to make you freeze up like that" said Takashi because he know Saeko won"t be paralyzed because of just some reason it must be a sensitive one.
"It might not mean anything to you but regardless, would you mind listening to what i have to say" said Saeko.
Takashi looked at Saeko deep in the eye, waiting for her to say what"s been troubling her up to the point that it will make her freeze up on a very dangerous situation.
Outside the temple walkers are roaming about after following their noise, they have traced Saeko and Takashi here but doesn"t know the exact location of where they are.
The walkers can only wait outside and stand guard waiting for the both of them to show up.
Inside the temple, Saeko and Takashi are sitting opposite of each other, they looked at each other"s eye as Saeko began to share some of her experiences regarding as to why she froze at that time.
"I recalled when i was last so...afraid" said Saeko in a serious voice. Fragments of Saeko"s past will be now revealed to Takashi at this very moment so Takashi can"t afford to miss this one out.
