But she got up and said,"oh you must be hungry let me go and get something for you to eat." and went out. I was still in my bed remminicing about that incidents that had happened in the past day and I was glad that it had all come to an end . My thoughts came to a halt once I heard a door click open . I thought she was back and she indeed was back with meat and a drink. I was baffled at where she managed to get the meat from since only plants remained after the so called "human extinction" that's why I had to live on vegetables for the past few months. And of course I asked since all the meat that was left had to have been spoiled , she quickly changed the topic and I didn't think much of it.Her name was Emile. We were having our food while talking to each other, we had a lot in common, to be honest I was never that interested in love or anything of the sort but she made me feel butterflies. And when she left to get water for me I checkecked my surroundings. I was in a beautifully decorated room with a window facing the bed with a view that would make anyone appreciate nature. She was back, we went on talking for hours ,time truly flies when you talk to someone you like. It has been a few months since we met. I for one had developed feeling for her I mean she had everything, she was beautiful, intelligent, kind, helpful she was everything I could ever ask for so I finally mustered the courage and asked her to be my girlfriend I thought we knew each other enough for this and I was right when she accepted I was the happiest man alive no pun intended. Many months passed today was the day when exactly one year ago all traces of mankind had vanished and three months from now was when the unknown creature had appeared but in this past year no such signs were seen. Meanwhile my relationship with Emile was doing great. We were truly the happiest couple alive again no pun intended. One day when Emile went out to hunt I was left in the cottage house alone, even in my many months of relationship with Emile she never told me where she got the meat from all she ever told me was that she hunted it. So that day I decided to follow her to find the truth for some reason. She was waking into a dense forest and looking everywhere to make sure no one was watching. I was hiding behind a tree and maintaining a good distance from her. She suddenly came to a halt and after a few minutes of just standing there she moved in a specific directions just a few steps ahead and just after a second a reindeer came out of the woods. The scene that unfolded in front of my eyes will leave me haunted for days.What happen was that.......
