"Come on" Julia said as she hopped across the rooftop. I jumped across with her, we've been surviving on our own for a long time. Julia is my sister, we've seen horrors out here, things no person should ever see in their lives. "If we keep up this pace we might find a good place to sleep for the night that isn't a solid concrete rooftop."
"We have slept in a nice place in a long time, I was beginning to think that there was no where nice left in the world."
"Shhh you hear that." Julia puts her finger to her mouth and motions us to move ahead. I look ahead and on the roof in front of us is at least 15 zombies.
"Well big brother, looks like we're camping here for the night."
I sigh as I set my backpack and machete down. I didn't like it but it looks like we are sleeping on another cold hard roof tonight. As I feel myself grow closer to falling asleep, my mind wanders to that day. The day my life fell apart and this all started. I have to be strong, for my sister I have to keep her alive. For the longest time I've had trouble coming to terms with everything, it all happened so fast. We all lose people we care about but I never expected it to be this way. We eat with minimal words said and soon after I drift to sleep, ignoring the distant moans of the zombies.
