"We can't stay up here forever."
The horde clamored beneath them, surrounding the building, the fire truck, filling the parking lot, the street.
"Maybe they'll go away. The wind'll change, they'll smell something—"
"There's too many. Some of them will, maybe. Not enough."
"So what do we do? We'll starve. We'll die of dehydration or exposure or something."
"Someone will come. The cops, the army—"
"Half of those zombies are army. No one's coming."
They sat silent for a long time, holding hands.
"Still. Nice view. I always wanted to climb up here when I was a kid."
"Me too."
Reminds me of "Zombieland." :-)

DeleteDear David,

shalom,

Thanks for reading! :-)
DeleteI found it quite tragic, especially in the end, given the situation they are in. It is quite sad.
ReplyDeleteThanks, that was pretty much what I was going for. :-)
DeleteLoved this. Just did =)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'll take that! :)
DeletePeople!! They are always doing stuff like this! Oh how dull life would be without the clueless! :D A great response!
ReplyDeleteOh, I don't think they're clueless, I think they're resigned. :-)
