Will you still love me if I became a zombie?

Chapter 2: Books, Papers, and Death

Day 4 since I came here. I covered the hole in her eye with a white cloth wrapped over her head, I try not to cover her hair. Knowing her past self, she won't like it

"I'm kinda totally sure that won't heal. But I really hope that it will" I said as I clean the room and put the fallen books, cans, and stuff, back in their place. I look at her, she sits at her bed munching on bread I found wrapped in plastic in the other room, it still hasn't spoiled so I guess it's ok. "It's like I'm caring for a kid right now... Well, thinking back at it, you're still kinda the same... But like, the soulless type" I sat down beside her "Now, I want to know... Why won't you bite me?.."

She just munch on the bread looking ahead "...bread... good..." she said completely ignoring me

This is really strange... like, the virus is not making her savage and mindless, it's just like...

I look at her again, she dropped the bread. She tried to reach for it but fell down the bed instead

...Making her immortal but dumb

"Got... bread" She said as she reached for the bread while lying down. Instead of getting up, she just continued to eat the bread.

I can clear the whole floor now to make sure that no one gets us in our sleep. No, i mean ME in MY sleep, I keep forgetting she's a zombie now...

...Hmm, that raises the question "...Do you sleep Annie?"

"S... leep?" She asks still laying on the floor

"D-do you feel tired?" I asked

She swings her head left and right "No..."

"Figures... I should write notes about you huh?" This might be helpful someday. Researchers will be so Jealous of me right now. Never will I give them Annie though

I looked at the nightstand cabinet just beside the bed, There's Annie's Diary, pens, and a tiny cute pink booklet which have 'STUFF' written on the cover. I kinda laughed a little at it. I opened it to check what's in it. Just a couple of beautiful drawings of birds living near here and drawings of the skies. Being in a hospital sure does limit what you can draw huh? There's only 23 out of 100 pages which has drawings in them. The last date written is from a month ago. "I'll be borrowing this for a second Annie..." I said to myself

"Sure... Idiot..."

I looked at my back and saw Annie getting up and sitting at the bed. Oh yeah, she's still here huh? I thought smiling to myself

Ok, now to write this...

#1. She doesn't feel pain
#2. She doesn't get tired
#3. She refers to me as 'Idiot'

I'm gonna make sure she sees this when her memories somehow return. I'll make sure to call her Idiot too when that happens

Now to clear the zombies in each room. With this crowbar, I can smash their heads without hesitation since it's sturdier than a knife "Annie, I'll be back in a bit."

"Where... going?.."

"Umm... Just outside, I'm gonna umm... beat down bad guys" I said smiling while hiding my crowbar. She might get scared of me if she knew that-

"Zombies?.." She asked, then look at herself "But..."

"No! ummm... BAD zombies! Not you, you're a GOOD zombie!" I said panicking

She looked back at me "...ok..." God, I'm glad she's dumb

 

#4. She's Dumb

The door closed as Markus went out

Annie Just sat there on the bed, unsure of what to do. A moment passed, she stood up and head to the boxes of canned food. She picked up a can. It was an easy open can, but for a zombie, it's like figuring out how to do calculus. She lifts the can above her head, checking under the can then she rotates it to check the sides and top. She saw the pull tab (ring-tab if you're from the UK (It's the thing on Easy open cans or cans in general that opens the can)) on the top and started from there.
