Reborn Before the Apocalypse: He Watched Me Die 008
Noya’s POVI left the apartment before sunrise.Ethan was still asleep. His breathing came slow and heavy from the other side of the closed bedroom door. I moved without sound, picked up the bag I had prepared the night before, and stepped into the hallway. The air felt colder than usual. I locked the front door behind me, tested the handle once, and walked toward the elevator.Outside, the streetlights were still on. A few delivery trucks passed in the distance. I kept my head down and walked at a steady pace to the station. The train arrived half-empty. I took a seat near the door and watched the dark city move past the window. My mind stayed quiet. There was nothing left to decide. I had already made the call the day before. Now I only needed to finish it.Ms. Renner’s office was on the third floor of an older building with gray walls and a small lobby. I arrived early. The glass door was still locked. I waited outside until a light turned on inside. A minute later the receptionist

Noya’s POV The phone rang while I was still sitting at the kitchen table.I let it ring three times before answering.“You got my message,” Ethan said. No greeting. “The accounts are empty. Explain.”“There is nothing to explain.”“That’s not an answer.” His voice was tight. “Money doesn’t just vanish from personal accounts in the middle of a divorce. Where did it go?”“It was my money. I moved it.”“To where?”“That isn’t your concern.”A short, hard breath came through the line. “Everything is my concern until the divorce is final. My lawyer already flagged the earlier transfers. Now more accounts are cleaned out. Do you have any idea how this looks?”“I don’t care how it looks.”“You should.” The control in his voice was thinning. “You’re acting reckless. Spiteful. Like you’re trying to punish me by making the finances as messy as possible. That strategy is going to hurt you more than me.”I kept my tone flat. “The money was in my name. I had the right to move it.”“Stop repeating

Noya’s POVThe next days blurred into motion.I bought more water containers. More fuel canisters. More rice. More antibiotics. Every item went straight into storage or the warehouse. I stopped caring about how ordinary people looked at a woman loading heavy boxes into a van alone. Their opinions would not matter when the streets turned.I also started training.In the rental I did push-ups until my arms shook. I held planks until sweat dripped onto the floor. I practiced swinging the crowbar I had bought until the movement felt less foreign in my hands. My body was still soft from the old life. I hated that softness. I worked to burn it out of me.On the fourth night I drove to the warehouse after dark with another load of supplies. The industrial streets were empty. Most of the units were shut. A single streetlight flickered near the end of the block.I was pulling the last box out of the van when I heard glass break.It came from the small pharmacy two units down. The metal shutter

Noya’s POVI barely slept.The numbers I had written on the wall stayed in my head long after I turned off the light. Ten days. Then nine. Every hour that passed felt like something I could not get back.When the sky finally started to lighten, I got up, dressed, and left the rental with a clear list.The first stop was a wholesale warehouse on the edge of the industrial district. I bought fifty-pound bags of rice, dried beans, oats, and powdered milk. I paid in cash and loaded the van myself. No one asked questions. People rarely did when the money was real and the orders were large.By mid-morning the back of the van was full. I drove straight to my storage unit, transferred everything into the system space, and went out again.Second stop: medical supplies. Antibiotics, bandages, antiseptic, painkillers, suture kits, and boxes of gloves. I moved through the aisles with a list, efficient and quiet. The system tracked every item as I added it to the mental inventory.I was waiting at

Noya’s POVI signed the rental agreement under my own name and paid three months in advance with cash. The unit was small, clean, and anonymous—one bedroom, a narrow kitchen, and a window that faced a quiet side street. No one here knew me. That was the point.The moment the door locked behind me, I set my bag down and opened the system space. The blue rectangle appeared in the air, steady and familiar. I moved the last of my supplies inside: bags of rice, water filters, medical kits, tools, and the remaining documents I had taken from the old apartment. Everything disappeared without a sound.[Residence change confirmed.] [Financial foundation: 77%.]I spent the next hour making the place functional. I checked the locks twice. I wiped down the counters. I placed a heavy chair under the doorknob out of habit. When everything was in order, I sat on the edge of the bed and opened my email.A new message from Ethan’s lawyer was waiting.The language was formal and sharp. Demand for the i

Noya’s POVEthan froze the joint accounts at 11:03 a.m.I received the bank notification while standing in the middle of a bulk supply store, a cart already half-full of rice, dried beans, and industrial-sized containers of cooking oil. The message was short and final. All shared accounts locked pending legal review.I stared at the screen for three seconds.Then I put the phone away and kept shopping.The money I needed was already gone—moved days ago into accounts he couldn’t touch. What he had frozen were the visible leftovers, the accounts I had deliberately left half-empty so he would feel like he was striking a real blow.Let him enjoy the feeling.I paid in cash, loaded the bags into a rented van, and drove straight to the warehouse. Every item went into storage the moment the door closed behind me. The system accepted them without comment.[Financial foundation: 74%.] [Side mission: Shelter acquisition 55%.] [Warning: Legal countermeasures initiated by former partner.]I alre
