Apocalypse Countdown

Chapter 33 Fight or Flight (1)

Chapter 33 Fight or Flight (1)

"So bright...."

Hua Meili stared at the clear dark blue sky sleepily, her eyes almost dropping close if not because of someone blocking the light for her.

"My lady, if you sleep out here, you may catch a cold." 

Du Hexi stood beside her blocking most of the light of the sun shielding her from its brightness which disturbs her.

"What are you worried about? I won't catch one."

Hua Meili drawled before closing her eyes again, this time she heard a sigh from her side, and a quilt was put on her.

She peaks at the person beside her. 

"This servant won't disturb your nap anymore, my lady..."

Hua Meili heard him say before sleep took over her,  but before she left for wonderland, she felt someone sit beside her.

"I'll be here until you wake up, my lady."

Days passed by so quickly that with a blink of an eye, it was already 2 months after the Apocalypse started. 

The world had changed so much within these past 2 months.

The blue sky became even bluish, it was so beautiful but was a constant reminder of the change that the Earth took.

The weather and temperature took a hit, the temperature drop so much that it became even colder. 

If not for her body evolving then she might have already frozen to death.

Ordinary humans these days must constantly check their body temperature lest they freeze to death because of the drop in temperature.

Evolve humans like her are really lucky because the change in temperature really did not affect them too much unlike ordinary humans who still remained ordinary and weak.

As she was thinking about the different changes that occurred over the span of 2 months, her phone vibrated inside her pocket.

Leisurely taking her phone out, she read the message on the screen.

"Wha?! AH!"

Falling down the branch that she used as a bed, Hua Meili looks at her screen again with wide-open eyes.

Message:

From: Unknown Number

My beloved meimei, this is your brother Jin. Sorry for not calling or texting you this past few weeks, your brother lost his phone when he was fighting with the Zombies and only got a new one a while ago. I know it's already been 2 months since we last saw each other but brother promises that I will come back home safe and sound so you must wait at home for me. Brother will come home soon. Love Jin.

After Hua Meili read the message from her 'brother', she wrote a reply and then sent it to her brother.

It's really been a while since their last conversation that she almost forgot that he even existed if not for the sudden text message she received from him.

Message:

To: Jin Gege

Dage, do not worry about your meimei, I am alright. I am looking forward to the day when you come back home safe and sound. Please take care of yourself and don't get injured or something. I pray that you would be safe and I will patiently be waiting for your return. I will be looking forward to the day that you would come back home.
