Reincarnated In An Apocalypse

Delrina

Basically, everything these 4 are going to do is controlled by the devil.

And Berry is someone with a mysterious past life, with the ability to give the upper hand, either to the god or the devil.

...

God took his action way earlier.

All the eleven people the devil chose are already coming together in a single place.

And the first person is this girl, who just got a taste of the truth of the human heart.

19 June 2019

"I finally got a boyfriend after so long!! You know Tim, I had a crush on him ever since.... umm ever since when? I don't remember. But I already had a crush on him and today he asked me out. It's still hard to believe. He's so popular. Why would he date me?! Timmy, I am so happy today." Delrina was overflowing with happiness.

Timmy and Delrina are best friends. They are inseparable. Their friendship is so famous if one is walking around alone, random people on the street start asking about the other one. Both of them were sitting in their usual place. It is Timmy's father's cafe.

"Oh, great, what was his name again?" Her voice was normal, but her tone gave off some disappointed vibes, but Delrina was too busy speaking to notice it.

"Ah! Tim, you have been my friend for ages and yet you can't keep my crush's name in your head? It's Spencer." She still had a big smile on her lovely face. Her face was so small and cute that everybody felt an urge to protect her at all costs.

"So you still remember I am your friend?" Tim's voice was cold after hearing it. Her always smiling face vanished into thin air. Her tone was so indifferent. She was disappointed. She went through many troubles all alone just to save Delrina from that guy, but Delrina walked right into the trap on her own, but now Timmy felt no need to feel angry because there's no meaning in it. Delrina won't listen to her anyway.

"What's wrong Tim? Are you okay?" She pretended not to know the reason for her coldness.

"I warned you every single day not to go near him; I tried my best to get you out of his reach, but you kept throwing yourself at him. Do you have even the slightest piece of pride left in yourself?" She said this in a casual tone as if she was talking about some distant relative of hers.

"Why do you have to be like this, Tim? You are the first one I am sharing this news with.."

"Oh! c'mon I was not even bothered by the fact that you had a celebration party with those punks who wander around your 'boyfriend', but now you even have to lie to me? It's still ok but why do you have to date that jerk in the first place? You know exactly what he wants from you. You are aware of how many girls he used and dumped before you. Still, you fall for his fake gestures and stuff. I could have never expected this from you." She initially tried not to lose her temper, but it was hard to digest that Delrina even started lying to her. Tim was at the edge of shouting. Her face was already red.

"What are you being all bossy about? It's my life and I'll live it as I wish. You can't say whatever you want. Tim, I know you are my friend but you still can't use such words for him. You are just jealous of me. I should have understood earlier." Timmy was stunned after hearing this. She knew who the actual owner of these words was.

"O... okay if the things have come to this then I can't help you even if I wanted to. I guess you'll soon be coming back to me. You are still welcome. Please don't get any deeper into it. Tim just murmured some of the words. She was aware of the type of personality Delrina had but today it went overboard. Tim was already on the brink of crying. She looked at Delrina straight in her eyes for a while, as if wanting to say something, but in the end, she just left.

Delrina didn't mean it, but right now, she had no idea what to do. She ran behind Tim, but Tim was already nowhere to be seen. Delrina was on the sidewalk looking around. She kept standing there until a touch on her shoulder started her.

"Hey Del, what are you doing here?" It was a boy with orange-dyed hair. He was wearing a lot of iron accessories and those looked overloaded.

"Nothing.. nothing at all, you guys here?"

"We are going to watch a movie then we'll go karaoke... maybe a little drinks too."

"I... I have a class now." Delrina was not so comfortable with these people.

"Ooh c'mon, you can skip classes for friends, right?" It was a girl standing with her arm over the shoulder of another boy. She had an intimidating aura.

"Your boyfriend is joining us, too. He'll be sad if you don't come. And yes, you are still friends with that hot-headed? She was so rude to us yesterday, she even traduced Spencer. What is she pretending to be? All caring and ugghh?" She made a disgusting face and all of them burst out laughing. Delrina was even more uncomfortable.

"OK, I'll come with you, but only for the movie."

"Yeah, Yeah keep studying and someone will steal your bf. Ok, let's go."

In the end, Delrina was the one who paid. The money she used was from her mother's savings. She paid each time because she wanted to match the standard of his friends. She spent more money in these some days than she would normally spend in 6 months.

These things kept on going this way for like a week. After a week, Delrina was informed that her mother is laying sick in the hospital, and a huge amount of money was required for her treatment. But she was already out of it. She gave Spencer a call.

" Hello, I need your help. Can you lend me some money?"

"Hello? hello? I can't hear what you are saying. Delrina? there's a network problem I guess. I'll call you back soon. Bye..." but he forgot to hang up.

"What a freak. She didn't even spend nicely and now she is asking for money." It was that girl's voice.

"Yeah, I know. I think she is gone broke too. I'll soon find a way to break up with her. Then we'll find a new one."

Delrina heard everything. But she did nothing. She was well aware that she was harvesting what she sowed. But she has no time to act all heartbroken.

She now started looking for a part-time job desperately. Even when she got one that was so low paying to help her mother's treatment expenses. In the end, she gave Tim a call. Timmy had an intention of playing hard but after hearing the story of her mother, she ran over to her. Timmy comforted her. And Delrina finally let out her tears.

Timmy was the one who helped her out. Tim was not so rich, but she did all she could do for her.

Tim's eyes or words showed no disappointment or resentment when Darlina asked for help. She already knew that Darlina was going to suffer, but she had no idea that it can go to this extent. Tim felt sad for her, and she helped her without any hope of getting something in return. Darlina was sorry for her behavior, but she wasn't able to bring herself to say it. Tim was aware of this fact, and nicely knew how good she was at apologies. 

After a lot of searching online and offline, Timmy suggested her a job in a close-by town.

"Hey Delrina, I found a job online."

"Are you sure it's not a fake one?"

"Yes, I am sure. It's a job of a server. You can do it, right?"

"Of course I can do it. I'll attract many customers with my looks." Everything was normal between them just in a few hours.

"Hoh! Your looks, those are not too good, my friend." She said mockingly."

"Where is the job?" 

"It's at your favorite place."

"Where?"

"Riverside resort of the Sunshine town," Timmy said excitingly.

"Really? How did you find it?"

"I don't know. I just found it. Notification from an unknown number popped up on my whatchat, and they suggested me this job."

"So, you are telling me that you are sending me somewhere out of the station, just on the basis of an unknown helper's suggestion?" 

"If it was some random resort, I was not going to believe it. But I gave confirmation call on resort's helpline and they are looking for new staffs with good looks."

"So you agree that I am good looking"

"Yeah, yeah, you won. Now listen, you can join them tomorrow if you want to. And don't worry about aunty. I'll stay with her." Timmy just wanted to say this much, but it felt so serious. "You know she likes me more than she does to you."

"Yes, yes, why not? You want me to leave as soon as possible? Ok then, you hurt my ego. I'll leave tomorrow." Delrina said it in the same tone as Timmy just used.

The very next day, the 26th of June, she went to join her job.

...

She was all determined to help her mom out, unaware of her demise on the way.
