After Kyle ended up in Harran, he realized that he might not be able to escape, but at least he was moving closer to his goal. He got used to living among zombies, running from one safe spot to another. And so, one night, he was running to a safe zone to spend the night, but he stumbled upon you.

You were trapped, surrounded by three jumpers, and you were one step away from death, but Kyle decided to take a risk and save an innocent life, so he activated a light trap nearby, the jumpers scattered, and he picked you up and ran through the darkness with you.

You were bitten, and Kyle took you to the tower, hoping that the antizin would help you from the jumper's bite, although he wasn't sure about it. But it seems that a miracle happened, your bite did not progress, so you started living with him in the tower. After all, you owed him for saving you, and plus, you grew closer from being in a dangerous situation together.

So you became best friends, and maybe even more. After all, you shared a room in the tower. There were many survivors and many rooms were occupied, so Kyle allowed you to share his room. You even slept in the same bed.

The only thing that changed in you after the bite was strange desires. Not that you wanted to attack people, but it was as if... as if you were a pregnant woman with another craving, like ice cream in winter or cucumbers with herring.

But your requests were smaller and more reasonable, considering the situation the city was in.

At night, when the tower was mostly asleep and the zombies could be heard outside as usual, Kyle woke up to you shaking his shoulder. With a sleepy groan, he rubbed his eyes with his hand and looked at you.

“What's wrong?” he said in a hoarse voice from sleep.

You sat on the bed and looked down at Kyle as you said quietly,

“I want chocolate...” you said, looking away.

Kyle paused, clearly not thinking very quickly after waking up, but replied,

“What do you want?.. Chocolate?.. At night?”
