Woken By Zombies

wake up

My eyelids flutter, and I feel like I'm drowning. I cant breathe but I can finally think. My eyes slowly open and I try not to scream. There are tubes down my throat and I see balloons, flowers, letters, candy, and all sorts of presents in the room.
I try to gather all the information I could by looking around. I can tell I'm at a hospital and I focus on a calendar across the room. It says that its 2021 June 17th. I try not to have a heart attack, have I been in a coma for a whole year? I hear sounds outside my room and I stay silent. I wonder where my family is and if Crystal is alive. Heck where are the nurses?
I work on getting one tube at a time out of my mouth. I can tell that one is a breathing tube and another is a feeding tube. I get the tubes out and take deep breaths. I notice that there is a mirror in the room and I steadily lower my feet to the ground and try to stand.
I crumble to the floor and pass out. About an hour later I groggily lift up my head from the ground. I put all my effort into standing and I walk over to the mirror, leaning on everything next to me.
I finally see myself and I start crying. There is a scar on the left side of my face and my right arm is in a baby blue cast. My hair has been cut in a boyish hairstyle and looks like a rat nest. I comb it out with my skinny fingers and notice that I'm wearing a hospital nightgown.
I walk over to a wheel chair that's in the corner of the room and sit down.
I spot a gun and knife on the table and almost choke. I see a letter next to them and grab it.
"Sally, I know you may never see this but its worth a shot. This may seem crazy and hard to process but the world is at its end. There are zombies everywhere and we thought it was best to leave you locked in here, safe. Also the key to get out of this room is under your pillow. We love you and may we see you in a next life. -Love Mom and Dad".
