[ It's hard to say if the feeling of dread has been coming for a while now, or whether it all just crashes down in one go. Caught up in her own mess as it is, she hadn't considered how many times he's actually dropped by to be of help, and guilt weeds itself in even if it might not be her fault. She isn't even sure how she got caught up in this (but she can't deny, either, that he might have been right - that tiredness may have made her slip up at some point without her realising) so trying to assume what happened to him isn't fair either.

The important part is the truth in this post and in the answers here. He's infected as well now.

He had told her before to try and take better care of herself, because at that time it wasn't about numbers, it was about being steady and trying to just do what you can.

When had that line been crossed? It's hard to say. Their plan is a good one for those who aren't in the same position, so she can't volunteer herself to be boarded up like that. She'll take her house, take equipment there to keep working because even if it does kill her in the process. This is fine. Numbers became more important, especially now they're getting more and more people stating that they've been hit by the virus too.

Instead of volunteering more in response, all she sends is one simple text. ]


I am sorry.
