Sanchez lowered the car window to talk to the guard of the Gomez Oil Company.“Yes, sir? How may I help you?” The guard asked.“We are police officers from San Lorenzo.” Sanchez showed his police I.D. “And we came to talk to your manager.”“Wait for a moment. I’ll just make a call to inform our manager if you’re allowed to have a meeting with him.” The guard entered the guardhouse and called their manager using the telephone.

[“SL News... An infected child is cured and recovered from Lila Virus. He was the first recorded to have survived despite this disease. Doctors have found the key to the epidemic crisis of San Lorenzo.”] Doctor Maria Garcia grabbed the remote control of her television inside the office and immediately turned off the television due to her irritation. She threw the remote on the wall that made the thing break. “How dare that person make a cure!? I made the virus so I should be the only one who can make a cure!” She quickly took her lab coat and went out of his office. The doctors and scientists were all busy with their work when Dr. Garcia yelled. “Everyone, listen!” They all stopped and felt the anger of their head doctor. “Within five days we will release the cure for this disease.” Whispers made some noise in the huge laboratory. “But doctor, we’re not yet in the mid-way completing the cure. There’s a lot of analyzation---” “Are you disagreeing with what I’m saying, Dr. Smi

Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 48 - THE BRIDGE
“What a failure…”He wanted to shout but no voice came out of his mouth. He almost tweaked himself until a little pair of shoes stopped in front of him and when he looked at it... It was a little boy giving him a phone covered with fresh blood. The boy holds the phone without disgust.“The lady on the stretcher dropped this earlier. Is this hers?” The child asked, looking at his grieving face.“No… It’s mine. Thanks.” He took it and smiled sadly at the boy.“You should change your clothes, mister.” He said as he saw Ferran’s clothes full of blood.“I will... Maybe later.”“Did she survive?” The boy asked out of curiosity.“Uhm... No. She didn’t.”“Ah...” The boy looked down. “Condolence, mister.” Ferran just nodded. “By the way, is she your wife, sister, fiancee, girlfriend---”“No. She’s just a friend of mine.”“Oh.” His lips formed a thin line. “Don’t be sad, mister. I know what you feel. You know what? I lost my mom during the epidemic...”Ferran froze a bit and cursed inside his m
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 49 - THE DINNER
“Ferran no!”“If I stopped. They will kill me---”“---and if you’ll continue, it’s suicide! F*ck! You’re insane!”“Yeah. I am.” Even though Ferran looks like he’s not afraid, his heart almost comes out to his rib cage when the car is in the air. Eight meters apart from where he needed to land.‘I can do it! I can do it! God, please help me!’ He shouted in his mind.Everything is like in slow motion. The car in the air, bullets, and enemies behind, a river under, and a part of the bridge in front of him with steels that will be used in the construction.“Yeah, it’s a suicide. Sh*t.”Luckily, he landed safely and no one could follow him. He drove the car far away from the bridge but unfortunately, the wheels at the back got flat. “Sh*t. Sh*t. Sh*t.”He had difficulty controlling the car so he quickly stepped on the brake before he crashed into the tree. He sighed in relief and got out of the car to check the wheels behind. He has no bullet wound but he made a facepalm.“I’m dead to Sanc
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 50 - THE CHASE
“Kuya...”Simon intently looked at him and pulled the trigger of his gun. Simeon held his breath for a few seconds before releasing it after he realized that it’s not for him but for someone who’s behind.“Who’s---” “Let’s get inside. Hurry!” His brother pulled him inside and immediately locked the door. “Dad, let’s watch a mo---why are you holding a gun? Is that real?” Blair asked her father in shock. She neared him and was amazed by the gun.“What’s happening?” Brenda asked who just came from the kitchen. She noticed the gun her husband was holding, and her heart raced.“They are here.” Simon looked at his wife with fear in his eyes but his wife just smiled sadly at him and pulled a gun somewhere in their house. “You and Blair, go with Simeon. I will handle this alone.”“No. I will not let you. I’ll stay.” Brenda firmly said and pulled a gun she hid somewhere.“Brenda…”“We talked about this before. Blair will leave, I will stay.” Simon knew that this would be a long and dangero
Hope of the Dying World CHAPTER 51 - THE HARSH TRUTH
Danryll and Zyrille were on their way home to their house in San Lorenzo when vehicles almost bumped into their car. “That’s a road violation. Overspeeding.” Danryll complained“Just let them. Maybe---” Zyrille couldn’t finish what she was about to say when they heard gunshots not far from them. “What was that? A gunshot?”“It is.” Danryll didn’t hesitate to follow those cars who passed by earlier.“What were you thinking, Danryll?”“I think someone needed help. Those cars earlier were chasing a dark gray car.”“Maybe the person in that car is being chased by the police,” Zyrille concluded but Danryll seemed to not believe that ‘coz there’s a big possibility that those cars chasing the dark gray car are the foes.“It is not allowed to shoot unless it is necessary.”“And what if it is necessary?” Zyrille crossed her arms while arguing to her brother.“Get my gun in the compartment in your front,” Danryll ordered his sister and ignored her question.“Danryll---”“Zyrille.”“Fine.” She
