Day 398
Thursday 28th September 2017 22:08

We all had a chat this morning and it was decided that we'd all stay putt here in the big detached house.

We talked about our options and TJ made some good points. He said that since we'd been here we haven't had any trouble from the infected or ACROBAT. He said it was a strong house and that the vans are out back so no one could see them. He said we had a few weapons and enough food for another week or so. "A week!" exclaimed Courtney, "We're not staying here another week are we? I thought we were all off to City One?" "This house is in the middle of nowhere," said Trudy, "I think we're safe here." "That's just dumb," said Josh, "Those ACROBAT guys have got all that freaky technology. If we stay here it's just a matter of time before they find us." "Give it a rest Marilyn Manson," said Trudy, "What do you know, anyway?" "I was serving chips to them all remember," said Josh. "Yeah, so?" said Trudy, "I was serving food at one of the Safety Zones. What do you want, a f*cking medal?" "I think he's trying to say that he knows what the ACROBAT lot are capable of," said Mike. "Well he doesn't know that much," I said, "I asked him all about them." "Well what I do know is that while you've got some weapons, they've got more, and better ones," said Josh, "They've got futuristic helicopters and tanks and sh*t, and I was there when they killed Mary. That Goyle bloke is p*ssed off with you lot. I don't think he's going to stop until he gets you all." "Well thanks for that Josh," I said, "That makes me feel great." "I'm just saying that sitting here waiting for them to come and kill us is pretty stupid," said Josh. "And going out there driving around in a couple of vans isn't stupid?" asked Trudy, "We'll get seen in no time, especially if we head for London." "Well we're going to have to go out at some point for more food," said Josh. "Yeah but we stick to the rural roads and the quiet places," said TJ, "There's less chance of being seen by anyone and anything." "So we're staying?" asked Mike. We all nodded. Josh didn't look happy and Courtney went in a strop. "Courtney for God's sake," I said, "Stop being such a moody cow." "Don't talk to my girlfriend like that!" snapped Josh. "Well you talk to her then," I firmly said to Josh, "Look we can't leave without Naomi. If she comes back to finds out we've gone, she'll think we've just abandoned her." Courtney stood up in a big full on strop. "I'm sick of hearing about Naomi!" she loudly said, "Everything's about Naomi, it's all about Naomi. I don't give f*ck about Naomi. She abandoned us. She walked out on us, remember? We didn't make her leave. Naomi, Naomi, Naomi. That's all I ever f*cking hear. Naomi this, Naomi that. Well I hope Naomi doesn't back. I hope Naomi's dead. Naomi doesn't care about me, so why the f*ck should I care about Naomi!?" Courtney then stormed off with Josh close behind. There was a moment of silence. "Well call me psychic," said Mike, "But I think Avril Lavigne doesn't really like Naomi." Auntie Meryl looked confused, turned and looked at me. "Who's Naomi?" she asked.
I've resigned myself to the fact that we're all staying here. I feel a bit sad that I know there's some fantastic underground city out there somewhere but I suppose without the map and without Seth our chances of getting in are quite slim. Anyway, I wouldn't want to go to this underground sanctuary without Naomi and if she is alive and she manages to get back here then at least we'll all be her waiting for her. I really hope she is alive. If the stubborn cow had told us exactly where she was going and what she was doing we might have been able to help.  At the very least we'd have an idea of where to start looking for her. I just hope she's OK.
