all i hear is indistinct muffled noises that are like unknown words to me. it sounded like el singing.

i try to speak but my voice comes out all scrambled and weird like i haven't talked for a mini eternity. i was out cold...and my body is rebooting? at least thats what is feels like. My throat was so dam dry i need water.

i get up only to fall back over as a the room felt like it was shaking with no feel-able vibrations. i lift my hand to my forehead and feel its hot and i start to cough like a mad man... kind of like that one man that chased us. wait ....

'"el" i sounded like I've been eating dirt with my rough and sandy voice.

"are you ok? you've been out for like two hours!" she said in a fast pace trying to remain calm and keep her cool.

"yeah I'm ok" i said in a voice that didn't even sound like me; it sounds like I've been smoking.

then it hit me like a brick i needed to cough but i knew that would make my throat worse.

"please water" i looked at el with an awaiting face as i said those words with a choked and wrinkled face trying to not to suffocate.

she instantly played mother and got up in a calm manner and got me a nice soothing glass of water.

i chugged down the eight ounce cup of water and let out large sigh of relief. but now that that's fixed i need to ask.

"what happened back there?"

"well.. i kinda hit his head with a brick." she responded timidly

"who?!"

"that one beastly man that wheezed as he talked"

"oh" i said as i took another sip of my water

"did i do wrong?" she asked covering her fingers with her hair as she scratched her head from the temples up. she looked sad and scared.

"hell no i hated that mofo"

"LANGUAGE"

".. el its ok its just us here" i sighed

she sighed too and then she yawned and stretched.

"Lets... I don't know." I say out loud

"Yeah let's 'I don't know"' she said in a mocking way

I laughed heartless-Ly

"Our lives are pointless aren't they not ?" I exclaimed randomly

"Yeah I guess, but were still alive" she said in a don't-be-so-down tone.

"Yeah yeah I get your point."

I laid back down on my bed and crossed my hand behind my neck.

I took a deep breath.

"I miss mom" el says as she smirks in a sad way. I can see her eyes blur their vision saying 'I don't want to see this world'

"Ditto" I reply

I could hear the peaceful silence not a sound to be heard besides our quiet breaths.

A few minutes pass and I think about how I'll ask el.
I want to do something with our lives; to make them normal; to make them livable; to have a point.

I read it in a book that its possible to bring back the dead. I will do this weather el agrees or not. because of the price to pay I guess.

What is the price of a human being?

I can't bear to se anything bad happen to her.

I just couldn't .
