everyone in the classroom was quiet, too quiet and too busy about munching the pizza down their stomach that mark had brought with. i was, or everyone was happy about the food we took with us because it's the type that will make you easily full. "so crazy, i saw it inside the oven and i took it out and put it inside the box!" mark spoke with his mouth full, telling to the others how he found it. when i say others, i only meant johnny who was the only one that had the guts to listen to mark's babbling. honestly i don't even think johnny does, but he pretends to listen because he's his best friend.
                          
but everyone else, dead silent with pizza on their hands. 
                          
"like it?" taeyong nudged me, i smiling with the peperoni melting on my tongue. "mhm~" i hummed, bobbing my head up and down. 
                          
then silence broke in again.
                          
"don't you think it's too quiet?" mark's loud voice blared in the room, everyone flinching and mark gaining all the attention. somin scoffed, annoyed by mark's bubbly attitude that she has to deal with everyday and every second. "why don't we play... i don't know, truth or dare?"
                          
to make the young boy happy, we all agreed and made the circle smaller as mark grabbed the half emptied water bottle. 
                          
"this kinda sounds stupid?" yuta lazily commented. "don't be so no fun, let's brighten up the mood!" taeil exclaimed, for some reason he was kind of giving me mark vibes but older version.
                          
"whomever the bottle points to will be questioned truth or dare by me." mark explained excitedly, leaning forward to place the bottle in the middle and once it touched the floor, he twisted his wrist and spun the bottle. everyone eyes were focused on the whirling bottle, for some reason i was quite tensed that it would land on me, as i already referenced, i dislike these type of games but i won't ruin the mood and refuse to join. 
                          
the bottle stopped faster that i imagined, it pointed at jaehyun who had his eyes widened, i suppose he wasn't expecting it to land on him first. he shrugged it off and commenced to casually eat his pizza. "truth." he quickly responded.
                          
"okay~" mark hummed, his fingertips rubbing against his chin as he pondered deeply. "how are you feeling only having one hand?" at first i thought it was inappropriate, but jaehyun seemed to be unbothered. "honestly feel a bit weird but i'm just glad i'm alive, and i never frankly thought it would work." he answered, not forgetting to send me a smile as another thank you, i smiling warmly back.
                          
"so if like somin gets a bite on the face, can we hack her whole head off?" i wasn't even surprised when it came out from donghyuck's mouth, he seriously has the most severe hatred on somin and i don't understand how she can even handle all of it. "seriously shut the fuck up donghyuck." somin glared, donghyuck not feeling threatened at all. 
                          
mark endlessly laughed at the small joke his friend made. "shut the fuck up." dahye said in annoyance, the boy stopped and remained quiet.
                          
since it was now jaehyun's turn, he leaned forward to spin the bottle. it landed at sicheng who wasn't even paying attention, quietly staring at the ceiling with an untouched pizza on his hand. once he noticed, he awkwardly sat properly and pursed his lips before speaking. "uh... truth?" 
                          
"what are you thoughts about the walkers?" i see what jaehyun's trying to get out from sicheng, ever since we both found him a very quiet and mysterious boy we always knew he had a lot of thoughts or theories about the walkers and the apocalypse. from the looks of it, sicheng is that smart and clever type, creating conjectures that people don't really talk about.
                          
"i... i think the walkers won't always be around." he paused and pursed his lips, looking around and was quite unsure whether to continue but he fortunately did. "they'll go away someday, because the world goes in cycles right? ice age, stone age, um and some other ages. so it's like that, this age will end and another one will start."
