That's how long it's been since the calamity, and how long I have traveled on foot. My feet are sore, and these old boots aren't helping either. My throat...it's so dry. I was able to collect a few drops of rain, just a sip it was to quell this wretched thirst, but still... I continue to walk down the road, a desolate, damaged stretch of empty highway...well aside from all the mangeld and burned up cars everywhere. I look into one of the windows, and...I can't believe what I'm seeing. Four bodies, all charred, all blackened, some...already losing their skin. It's...a family, a mom, a dad, and two little kids. They didn't die during the bombings, no...they would've been vaporized in an instant. If anything, a wreck is what killed them. But....maybe being burned alive or dying in a wreck is a better way to die....than slowly decaying...in this dying world. I show no emotion towards the grisly scene, my face doesn't budge at all. On the inside though, my stomach is turning in knots. I feel like I'm gonna throw up. The rain stopped finally, but it still feels cold. Maybe it's just me....maybe I've grown [i]cold.[/i] God....why did this all happen? And...why am I alive? A sigh passes my lips and I continue onward. I can't go home. There's nothing left. So, I keep pressing forward. The next town, it's just a few feet ahead, and I desperately need more supplies. Ugh...my stomach keeps growling. It's getting annoying, this sharp, bitter pain in my gut. I haven't eaten anything in a while, just a nasty can of cold beans I could barely keep down. I didn't sleep that much either last night. I couldn't shut my eyes. I was just...too afraid to... Please...let me make it to the next town. Hopefully let me find a place, an old house or even some abandoned building, somewhere I don't have to be outside at the mercy of everything.
