The dollar flu

Leaving the safe area

It was are first Christmas away from home in New York mom had a business trip and took her kids along with of course wasn't going to miss Christmas is what she said she got a nice hotel with swimming pool for my little brother to play in I was in charge of watching him and yes I was the glorified baby sitter are mom had left the hotel to go and do some last minute Christmas shopping for us she never made it back I tried to call her when she answered she said to keep Joy that's what she called him a lot of the time so that's the name I'm going to be using she said to the both of us to stay in side and load up on food water. I responded with of course mom and milk the cows and gather the eggs haha very funny James that is my middle name that is the name I will be using for myself in this story James this isn't a joke okay so you need to do as I say I'm not going to be making it back to the hotel anytime soon so stay there I'll send a group to come get you hours went by no one came I ordered room service and started to fill up some empty water bottles to then weeks when't by still no one but people started to get sick we were told to stay inside soon a month passed and Joy was wanting to go outside the room and go out side in the snow and play a little bit I told him that wasn't a good idea he asked why. Well little man people are sick right now and I don't want you to get sick little man so I need you to stay in side okay but I won't get sick I promise you can't promise that are body's are how can I put this can get sick really easily and with this dollar flu all you have to do is be in the same area as they were and you get sick so that why I don't want you to go out side with a sad face he look at me and said fine so late one night I went to the front desk and asked if I go up to the roof and yes I know it's vip only but my little one being trapped in a hotel room isn't fun he wants to play in the snow is that okay just to let him play in the snow sir I should tell you to go back to your room but yes I can do that tomorrow that you just made a little boys dream tomorrow. The next day I woke up told him to get his jacket on and took him to the roof he played what seem like for hours even some of the staff that were still there played for a little bit and then when back to work when the second month hit there were only 3 staff members working and they had came up to my room and and said this

Ruby manager: sir we need you to leave this area of the city is going to be cut off from the rest and you are the only two guests who are still here alive and yes we checked all the rooms to

Alex cook: sir over these past few weeks we've gotten to know you and we would feel horrible if something where to happen to you two

A weird staff membership likes to be called steel

Steel security: sir I'm sorry to say it but there right with no one from the CDC coming around to check on us anymore and since they left there tents I think it's time for us to leave as well and the JTF is gone to so we need to leave sir

James: but I was told to wait for

Steel: a escort group to show up we know but the thing is ruby I think you should tell him

Ruby: we are that escort group there were 30 of us but as the months went by we started to lose them

James: and now it's just you three left

Ruby: yes and after tonight I know this place is no longer safe we are going to leave tomorrow after the storm passes so be ready to leave James and make sure you pack what you want and make sure Joy is ready to leave tomorrow

James:  I can do that Ruby
