Charlie had already closed his eyes. He was completely frozen, like a block of ice.

After Erica ate something and applied some ointment to her wound, she began to feel a little better.
But she had already burned the bed to stay warm, and now there was nothing left in the house that could burn.
She looked around blankly and realized–there was truly nothing left.
Desperate, she threw a piece of metal into the small fire pit, hoping it would help somehow.
But the fire only got weaker.
She almost burst into tears.
Then her eyes slowly moved toward Charlie.
“Honey … please don’t blame me. Charlie, please don’t hate me… I have to stay alive. Only by living can I avenge you.”
With trembling hands, Erica stripped off Charlie’s clothes, one piece at a time, and fed them into the fire.
But that didn’t last long.
Two hours later, all of his clothes were gone.
Erica sat by the fire, hugging her knees, completely falling apart.
She didn’t want to die.
Every time she thought about the people she hated, the ones who took everything from her, she knew she couldn’t give up.
In the end, her shaking hands reached for the last thing in the house that could still be burned
-Charlie’s body.
A body could burn. It could even burn for a long time.
She poured the last of their canola oil over Charlie to make sure it would catch fire.

“Caroline, Kay, Zach … and everyone in this building–you’re all going to die with Charlie!”
She muttered those words again and again as she worked, her hatred boiling inside her.
It was all she had left to keep herself alive–her will for revenge. She wanted to kill everyone in this building.
Caroline had no idea what was happening on the other side.
Kay returned about half an hour after leaving.
Caroline heard the door open, but didn’t go over to ask.
Some things people had to face on their own.
Like killing.
Caroline still remembered the first time she killed someone in her previous life. She’d been terrified.
It was right after the deep freeze began. She had killed an old woman.
At that time, she was already living in a government shelter, where she received small rations of compressed biscuits and a tiny bottle of water every day. Everyone survived on the same thing.
But that old woman, using her age as an excuse and claiming she had kids at home, always tried to take more.
Caroline used to be kind, so she shared some of her food with her.
Until one day, she overheard the old woman mocking her, calling her a fool–someone easy to take advantage of, the kind of woman men would toy with in a normal world. The words hurt her deeply.
After that, she stopped sharing her food.
Then the woman started spitting at her. She even spread rumors that Caroline was trading her body for extra food. Because of that, Caroline had to scar her own face just to stop the men in the shelter from harassing her.
But the old woman didn’t stop. She kept bullying her.
When she saw Caroline disfigured, she began mocking her ugliness, laughing about it in front of everyone.

Later, the two of them were assigned to a supply team with a government convoy.
The woman kept bossing her around, making her do all the heavy work.

On the way back, she secretly hid some of the supplies they’d found. When the soldiers. discovered the theft, she immediately blamed Caroline.
She shouted that Caroline had stolen them, repeating the same rumors she’d spread before. The others believed her–they’d all heard the gossip about Caroline.
At that moment, Caroline realized kindness meant nothing in this world.
She pulled out a knife and stabbed her ferociously several times, ending her life on the spot.
Then she searched the old woman’s body, found the stolen supplies, and proved her innocence.
She thought she’d be punished, but instead, the government only made her do a few days of hard labor before letting her go.
After that, no one dared to mess with her again. The people who used to insult her kept their distance.
That was the moment she truly changed.
Kay needed that same kind of change now.
After everything that happened, Caroline decided to take a few days off and stay home. She wanted to relax, watch some movies, and read a few books.
Then the snowstorm hit overnight. Snow buried the entire first floor in a single night.
Caroline dragged a huge beanbag chair to the floor–to–ceiling window, stacked a few soft pillows on top, and curled up comfortably with a book in her hands.
