I tightly hold the cable that I found earlier while I push the door open. Empty, still surprises me.. My brother took all the knives and all the food. I wonder if I can find something.. I enter the store that I always go to, well used to.. I wish I had a flashlight. I sigh and I start looking around. When I look at the apples, I remember about the radiation. Damn. I decide to look for weapons instead and I'm able to find a hammer. Right now I love those kids that always leave things in random places. I go outside again and I walk around looking for interesting things but I can't ignore it that nobody else is outside. I sigh and I sit down, should I really stay here? The emptiness is only making me feel worse and I walk back to my home. I go inside and I lock the door, not even asking myself why. I curl up on the couch and I close my eyes, falling asleep soon after, exhausted from all that's happening.

I wake up by the sound of the door opening. I keep my eyes closed and I listen. "Missed me?" someone says before I'm pushed off the couch. "I was awake, that wasn't necessary" I mumble before looking at him. Oh. Damn. Great. I kick against his knee, "Asshole.." I say while looking at him. "Glad to know that you missed me" he mumbles while looking at his knee. I sigh, why did my brother even come back? "Damien. Why are you-" before I can finish, he grabs my face and moves his finger past the wound. I bite my lip, it hurts but I won't stop him. "This makes you look beautiful" he says and I stare at him like he lost his mind, "Why are you back" I say to change the subject. He shrugs, "Where is your gas mask?". Now it's my turn to shrug, "I don't need it". I look at him after a few seconds, wondering why he isn't talking, and he says "I rolled my eyes, forgot to say it". Another reason to hate gas masks. I get up and I go outside, knowing that he will follow me, and he does. "Go." I say, I know that he wants me to come with him, but I refuse. He grabs my arm and I look at him, "I am not leaving". "Fool" he says before walking away. "I won't miss you" I yell at him, knowing that I just destroyed the love we once shared as siblings.
I go back inside and I curl up on the couch.
