“How so? Do you still want to bet?” ask Zen.
“Stop all this shit damn!” maki Max made Zen laugh again.

“So brother Zen, what are we going to this store for?” leo asked while looking around the shop.
“To pick up some items I need,” replied Zen while pointing at the tarp she had already separated with several rolls of sharp thread.
“What is this really important?” asked Lin confusedly.
‘Although a store like this is relatively rare to have customers, but we have to kill at least three zombies just to pick up some of these items,’ Inner Lin while paying attention to the items that are in the store.
“Can't we better take that sleeping bag?” leo asked as he pointed towards the several sleeping bags displayed in the store.
“Oh, good eyesight Leo. I'll take those 4 sleeping bags and put them in the car now,” Max said then took the item in question.
“Quickly tell them your plans and make sure to tell them slowly!” max whispered with warning that made Zen snort softly.
“I know that,” reply Zen join in whispering.
Max quickly picked up the four sleeping bags and turned to their car to put them in the trunk.
Zen who saw Max had disappeared, now had to turn his eyes towards the two brothers who were staring at him as well.
“Kak Zen, does anyone want you to tell us?” ask Leo slowly.
“Hahh, indeed there is nothing I can hide from you guys huh?” asked Zen while sighing softly.
After finishing his speech, he now aligned his height with the two of them and looked directly into the eyes of the two children.
“There's something I have to tell you and it's about the plan I've made and discussed with Max as well,” said Zen who made the two children look at him in confusion.
“You know for sure that after this we will go to the hospital to get the chemicals I need, it's just that Max and I changed our plans,” says Zen which makes Leo's forehead wrinkled.
“So after this we do not go to the hospital?” leo asked who was replied with a soft belt by Zen.
“No we will stay to the hospital, it's just that the hospital will be where we settle from the zombie crowd out there,” Zen said.
“But isn't that risky? What if the hospital has a lot of zombies in it plus we can't avoid if we're going to find a human coming to the hospital later,” Lin said.
“Not inside the Lin hospital, but on the hospital roof, that's why I made the paralyzing poison and took the sharp thread,” said Zen who made Lin speechless.
“Then what's the problem kak?” ask Leo who is directly to the core of the conversation.
“The problem is located in our inventory item is not?” asked Lin which made Zen slightly jerked.
“We can't possibly take all that heavy stuff on our way to the top floor where the roof is, if we do that our mobility will be disrupted. Plus we don't know how many zombies we'll be dealing with back then, we can't risk working twice just to bring supplies,” continued Lin who made Leo speechless.
“Smart, how can you think so far? You really are Lin's genius,” praise Zen while gently rubbing Lin's head.
While Lin only accepted Zen's praise happily and let her brother rub his head slowly before looking at Zen seriously.
“Kak, what can we do for you?” asked Lin seriously.
“You know? The hospital building has a height of approximately 200 meters and the structure of the hospital building is in the form of a large letter l so that it has an angle formed in the structure of the building,” explained Zen which makes Leo nod.
“That's right, the angle created was roughly 90 degrees,” Leo replied which made Lin look at Zen in confusion.
“I plan to use this tarpaulin and stretch it from one side of the building to the other to create a bridge between the corners,” is obviously Zen which makes both nod.
“But what does it have to do with how to carry our supplies?” ask Lin.
“I need one person of light weight to sit on that tarp with all the supplies we have at the time Max and one other person who will pull the tarp from the top of the building,” Zen words that make Leo speechless.
“Cause of sister, brother wants me or Lin to be the one to keep the food supply when Max and one other person pulls the tarp to make it up and it has to be at an altitude of 200 meters with that thin cloth pedestal and move all our food supplies to one side of the building?” ask Leo to clarify everything.
“Not as thin as you think sis, the tarp is strong enough to carry the light weight of a small child as heavy as me,” Lin said as he checked the thickness of the tarp there.
“But Lin-“
“If Leo's brother doesn't want to do it then I will,” said Lin who made Leo look at him in disbelief.
“No, I strongly resist that, you know it is very dangerous right?!” ask Leo.
“But not as dangerous as when I had to sneak in the head of the parlour's work just to take some banknotes and receive an intense blow from him,” Lin said.
“But it is in a different context! If you take the wrong step or something unexpected, you can fall from a height of two hundred meters!” leo said which made Lin grunt softly.
“I know that,” Lin said slowly.
“If you know this then forget about this plan and let me go in your place,” Leo said which made Lin look at him disapprovingly.
“How can you say that?! I'm the first to guess this plan means I'll do it!” lin said loudly.
“Hah, that's what you said but did you think about how your little body carried that noodle dus?” ask Leo.
“I'm strong enough if only to bring some dus noodles!”
“Really? But I never saw you carrying a heavy object, even if I saw it you only ever brought your rubber ball with your two little hands,” Leo said which made Lin grow angry at him.
“Tau what you about me! I once managed to bring a bindex containing the files of the owner of the parlor that I can be sure if it is very heavy, even the stack of files is heavier than the instant noodle box,”, Lin said in an argument.
“But you never carry a box of bullets or a gun that clearly weighs more than the noodle box,” said Leo who made Lin speechless.
“That's because you're a big brother and I'm a sister! If I was a big brother, then the position you would be doing would also be me doing!” lin said with the words involved.
“Yeah, but you are a girl,” said Leo who still understands the sentence spoken by his sister and replies to his sister's statement.
“What's wrong if I'm a girl?!” shouted Lin in annoyance.
“Because you're a girl and I'm a boy then I'm the one who has to take over to make sure you're okay from a dangerous task like this. You are still a little Lin,” said Leo who made Lin snort annoyed.
“I'm already big! Stop saying I'm a kid. Is there something wrong with women?! I want to help you guys! I don't want to be a burden on this group!” said Lin which made Leo flinch a little.
“But-“
“Wow, I tell you to tell them slowly, instead of making them create that kind of scream until it sounds from the outside,” Max said on re-entry to the shop.
“I'm sorry I and I have done it by telling them slowly, it's just like the two brothers had to express their opinions in a loud voice so that nothing else would be a problem in the future,” said Zen which ended with a small laugh in the back.
“But yelling they really penetrate to the exit of the store,” said Max who made both of them lowered their heads in shame.
“That's a natural thing considering they were fighting between brothers, even the quarrel me and my brother really sounded to the neighboring house,” said Zen who made Max chuckle lightly.
“It was better than my quarrel with my brother, I even unknowingly messed up the house due to the quarrel,” Max said, which now makes Zen laugh.
“So is your fight over?” asked Max who made the two brothers compactly turn his face in the other direction.
“Umm, well I guess already?” leo replied while scratching his cheek awkwardly.
“If you are not finished then continue your quarrel and I will sit next to Zen while watching you two,” Max said then sat next to Zen
.
“Ahh, no this is really done,” replied Leo while looking down embarrassed.
“No this is not finished!” lin replied loudly then ran towards Max and hugged Max tightly.
“It's not finished okay..?” said Lin with a trembling tone.
“Ah, if not finished then finish. Isn't the fight shown to find a bright spot between your two problems?” max asked as he stroked Lin's shoulder slowly.
“But this is a free thing! Because brother will not listen to my opinion at all,” said Lin who ended with a light cry in his last sentence.
Max and Zen only looked at each other briefly before their gazes turned toward Leo who was staring at Lin sadly.
“Hey, Lin if you really want to say something, then say it now. It's possible that Zen and I can help you convince your brother,” Max said, which made Lin snort lightly.
“Kak Zen is the same as brother Leo! They will definitely oppose it, only Brother Max supports me,” Lin said slowly.
Zen who heard Lin's statement only stared in disbelief before snorting lightly and approaching Leo who was now sobbing quietly.
‘Well, what do I expect from a 13-year-old and a 7-year-old?’ inner Zen while calming Leo from his sob.
“Then say everything you want to say and I will give my permission, fuck everything they will say,” said Max who made Zen glare at him.
“What did I say not to curse in front of my sister?” asked Zen who was replied nonchalantly by Max.
“I want you to stop assuming that I am a child and leave aside if I am a girl. Is it wrong if I am a woman and must be protected by you? I want to be free! I can protect myself! I admit if I was a kid but that doesn't mean that I can't protect myself,” Lin said in a raucous voice.
“And stop thinking of me baby brother!” lin said, staring at Leo.
“Stop thinking of me like I'm a kid who can't do anything without you. I want to help you, I don't want to be your burden, so share your burden with me! I don't want to see if you're the only one getting hurt! I don't like to see that!”
“I hate it when you come back with a body full of bruises just to give me milk powder, I hate when I wear fine clothes while my brother only wears dull cloth, I hate it when my sister gives me food and she herself doesn't eat anything that day! I really hate it when I find out I'm just a burden to you brother!” lin said, crying loudly, which made Max have to calm the boy down.
“I really hate myself because of myself, my brother's burden is increasing, even I always hope that if I can just die so that brother does not need to think about something other than himself, even if I can just die,” said Lin slowly while leaning his body on Max's shoulders.
Leo who heard that shook his head firmly before opening his mouth to say something.
But before his mouth let out a sound, Zen quickly closed his mouth to not say anything and let Lin cry loudly while hugging the loyal Max calming Lin who was still sobbing in his arms.
