The End Of Life Chapter 135

"Alright, dinner should be ready. Come, let's go." Suzie clapped her hands and walked towards the pot. The three guys followed her and David went to help out as Kevin and Mark sat down, waiting for their portion.
Kevin looked at Mark and said, "Are you hiding something from me?" Staring right into his eyes. He knew Mark ever since he could remember and knew what kind of guy he was.
Mark knew Kevin caught onto something and vaguely replied, "Nothing important right now. Just some speculations. Don't worry, it's not something which could affect me in any way." He didn't know much about his current situation. Telling his friend would only make him worry.
Looking at Mark for a few more seconds, he simply nodded and said, "You know I got your back all the time right. If you want to talk about it just tell me. I'm sure it's not something I can't handle."
Mark simply nodded and noticed the two bowls in Suzie's hands as she brought them over. Handing each of them a bowl, she took one from David as they sat beside them. Mark looked at the vegetable soup in his hands and slowly ate.
Meanwhile, Kevin looked at Suzie and asked, "Where is the meat? I thought we had some." Evidently, he isn't a fan of the veggies.
Suzie smiled and replied, "Once in a while something like this is good for us. Even though we have some meat, we need to use it slowly and not rush through our limited supply. Let's take it slow." And continued to eat, ignoring Kevin's pitiful look.
After having dinner, they brought out the tent and set them up quickly. Having their tents ready, they sat and looked at each other. All of them knew it was about today's incident. The most shocking incident ever happened in front of their own eyes. The friend they thought they would lose ended up during herself from something which was thought to be incurable.

"First things first. The incident which happened today, shouldn't go out of our group at any cost. Even if it's your daughter or your father. Nobody should know about it. Just think, if anyone does know about it. Suzie would probably be in danger. So lips sealed tight." As he looked at both David and Suzie.
Given the current situation, if any military personnel or a scientist gets to know about Suzie healing herself, she would be experimented on. People continue to grow crazier and more desperate for a solution and wouldn't stop at anything to reach their goal. Everyone knew about this and nodded with a heavy look.
"Alright, with that out of the way, I don't think Suzie really has the power to cure the zombie virus." Making his stand clear.
The rest stared at him, waiting for him to give out a reason, why not? All of them thought Suzie had the power to cure the virus after seeing the miracle. They felt it was the most logical solution they could think of. But now they heard Mark's opinion, which was the exact opposite of theirs, and were intrigued.
"Yes, you heard me right. I don't think she has that power. My logic is simple. She doesn't have the power to cure injuries and viruses because of how it has been till now. If you want proof, look at the scars on her hands and legs. Those didn't get cured and the skin there doesn't look new, like at the place she got scratched. If she had that power, the injuries she has been receiving the past few days when we are fighting shouldn't end up as scars and look clean." Pointing at Suzie's arms and legs.
All of them turned towards her arms and legs and noticed a few light scars in them. Most of them were still red because they were still rather new. But it was evident that they left a mark unlike what happened to the place she got scratched. Realising Mark had a point, they slowly nodded.

"What if her power is to only cure the zombie virus?" Muttered David.
Mark looked at him and shrugged before replying, "We will never know. It's not like we will willfully ask Suzie to get scratched so that we can get a conclusion, right? So it's better to leave this incident here for now." Reading his tone in the end. He didn't want to go deeper into the discussion. He knew the reason was the strange yellow waves he let out before fainting.
David nodded while still thinking about it, Mark ignored the man and continued to discuss some other stuff. David informed him about his plan to get Suzie tested, just in case. Mark was all for it as he was also interested in the results.
After they discussed plans for another 20 minutes, they stood up to go inside the tents. Suzie got her own tent while the rest slept in a bigger tent they found in the store. But as Kevin entered the tent, Mark paused and stopped David from entering.
"David, Can I get a few pills for a headache?"
Hearing him, David got worried and asked, "Do you still feel pain?" Mark shook his head and just said that he would take a few when he does feel any pain so that he wouldn't at least suddenly faint.
David was still a bit skeptical about it but still nodded and went to the jeep. Taking out the medical supply bag, he pulled out a strip of tablets and came back before handing them to him.
"I suggest you do not take them regularly. These things can create addiction, so don't try to rely on them too much. Be careful." And entered the tent.
Mark looked at the tablets and kept them inside his pockets. He went back and sat in the same place, keeping watch until Kevin would take over his place so he could rest. David was never on night duty because his use of the gun wasn't the best, and so it was only Kevin and Mark.
