As I awoken from my sleep, I find everything misplaced, some roofs are missing, and there are some open areas here. I don't know what happened. I was just sleeping in my room, and now I'm sleeping here? What is this madness? As I look outside, the air is no longer natural. My parents are no where to be seen. My brother and sister are also no where to be seen aswell. Did they abandon me? Are they trying to surprise me for birthday? Hopefully everything is ok. My small little self can't stabilize what's going on. I am still very tired from my 8 hour nap, I'm still confused, and now my stomach is rumbling. I check the kitchen if there's any food. I find a couple cans of beans, ramen packets, and some leftover McDonalds. I don't know how to cook up these foods. I might just attempt screaming mom and dad and hopefully they'll come help me. "MOM!" "DAD!" I sit there waiting for something to happen but something did happen. A dog comes out in the distance! Does that mean I got a dog now? I finally got a dog for my birthday! My parents probably bought me a dog and surprised me like that right? But my parents never showed up. But the dog just came straight forward. It didn't seem like it was friendly. One of their eyes seemed shut. Then it shut both of its eyes. It came jumping at me and magically disappeared? Was my sanity taken in effect? Am I in the feeling that I'm lonely and can't seem to find company? I might aswell pack my cans and ramen packets and eat this leftover McDonald's Breakfast Burrito. As I continue eating, I felt like scavenging everything this destroyed house has to offer. I'm coughing and my lungs are possibly not enjoying this air. Smells like someone was smoking a cigarette while I pass by. I'm incredibly scared, but I felt determined. I look back into my basement and find that there's another backpack hidden beneath some clothes. Just realizing that I will need clothes if anything happens from these seasonal changes. It's currently summer so there is some worry on clothes. As I check the backpack, there is a mask that seems like it is connected to the backpack with 2 tanks. And it seemed like it fit my size. Did my parents make this? Did they know something bad was going to happen? Why have they not come back to help me?
As I see, it's getting dark. Tonight, we sleep back in the basement shelter.
