So first, let me give you some personal background.
Hi, my name is Jes. Unfortunately, I don't like my name, it sounds cold and snobbish which give away my personality. You don't believe me? Well if you know a Jes who isn't cold, quiet, weird but kind of cool in some way but is more like a ray of sunshine then wow, that person must be the exception.
I have XX chromosomes and I think I'm straight, for now at least...
I'm a clinical laboratory scientist. Sounds fancy right? But I'm not good in first aid. I'm in the medical field but rely on over the counter medicines for survival. Well, I mostly deal with samples like blood, pleural fluid, nasal implants name it but we don't deal with people perse, just their parts. So how would I know?
I'm 25, Capricorn, INFP. Hit me up if we're compatible. Just kidding. (Some jokes are half meant)
Anyway, it's 2021. The world is experiencing pandemic. The 15 year old me would never imagine malls closing, curfews, zoom classes. Oh my gosh. Do you know I had to wake up at 4 am for my 6 am scout assembly?! Well, now I sleep at 4 am.
I think if an occurrence of a pandemic is possible then anything is possible. This is enough validation for the things I'm about to write. I think? (Help me convince myself, come on say yes)
So, the most common apocalypse theory is "Zombies" and this will be my scenario number 1.
Time jump. It's year 2025. The last covid patient is released from the hospital, marking the day the country becomes covid free. Everyone threw their facemasks in the air, shouting, and crying tears of joy. "Finally, we can travel again!" they exclaimed. Checkpoints were removed. Public transportation resumes. Commercial areas bustling like it's new year's eve.
2 weeks had passed and everyone is living their lives like covid never happened, including me. Right now I'm getting ready to meet my friend from a town called BECOOL. Yah, that's the town's name, cool right? Anyway, we haven't seen each other for years. 3 years to be exact.
We're gonna meet with few more close friends and catch up. Fast forward we decided to grab some iced coffee and grilled cheese while waiting for "How not to die during apocalypse the movie". I have a small bladder so I need frequent bathroom breaks, thus I went for one.
I'm a scaredy cat, and the restroom has 3 stalls. Am I the only one who imagine a white lady peeping while taking care of my business, I know I'm not the only one. Somehow I was sure that all the stalls were empty, so I went for the last cubicle and did my thing. Fortunately, I come out of the bathroom safely. I went back to our table and take a huge bite on my chocolate cake then took a sip of my iced americano.
Oh, I forgot to introduce my friends.
First off, we have Sun. Yeah that's her name. Sun as in the sun in the solar system. She just reminded us that it's 10 minutes before the movie starts. She's the one from BECOOL btw. She gave us paintings as gifts earlier.
Next is Abby who is urging us to finish our meals because Sun's eyebrows are already forming a straight line and is getting ready to leave us if we don't hurry. She's laughing and warning us at the same time.
Then there's Nick who is busy chatting on her phone but ready to go any time. She's also from BECOOL.
Then there's Elizabeth who's helping me finish my cake.
6 minutes left and finally I stuffed the last spoonful of cake in my mouth. Carrying my coffe with one hand, I stood up from my seat and joined Sun and Abby who were already outside.
Thankfully, we were just in time when we arrive at the cinema and blindly looked for our seats in the dark. The theater was full and we hurriedly settled in our seats.
