I was speaking through my radio and I tapped Jared because he was about to miss the turn. We even sped up eventually because there was no way the SUV's earlier would be able to plow through the dead chasing after us earlier. Not to mention they also have a horde on their back to worry about.
Driving for a few meters, I told Jared to park in an alley right next to a wall where a tree was providing shade. It was just almost an hour past noon and the sun was about to dry our throats up from the heat and our constant shouting. I made Jared park here so we could catch our breaths for a minute to check on ourselves and because we already lost the other half on the horde when we sped up.
This was also the time when Oscar returned my call.
