I didn't trust the government at all. I've seen all the movies about the government. Those trigger happy sons of bitches. I think it's best if me and my mom stay where we are. Our house is completely secured, we have food and water, we have household items that we can use as weapons. Why just pack our stuff up and leave the place that's the most secured? Me and mom can easily board up our doors with wood and nails and we're good to go. I just hoped my mom agrees. We watch a lot of zombie movies together so she should know what i'm thinking already.
"So, what should we do?" She finally asked.
I simply sighed.
"Plan A is to stay here and board up our house. The house is completely secured so why should we follow what the government says and leave? Does that make sense at all?" I asked her and she shook her head."I completely agree." I allowed a small smile to curl up on my lips."Then let's get to work!" I hopped out of the bed and ran to get the board and nails from the attic. I went up to our windows and started to nail down the wood."We'll also need some extra sheets to put over these windows to keep the sunlight out." I told. My mom came up and helped me board up our windows till they were completely covered then we started to board up our doors. Once we finished with that, we grabbed a couple extra bed sheets and blankets and started to nail them over our windows so we can block out the sun. It feels like our zombie plan is becoming successful.
After we both finished making sure our house is completely secured, we went into the kitchen and started to figure out what's good to eat and what's not good to eat. I opened up the fridge to see that the light already went out so that meant that all our food that needs to be refrigerated will soon spoil. That meant that we were only allowed to eat canned foods which was a bummer. Don't get me wrong, I love canned foods but i'll miss eating home cooked meals. I started to feel my stomach growl and I sighed. I didn't get to eat breakfast this morning before the power went out.
"You hungry?" My mom asked and I nodded.
"Me too." She said.
I grabbed a couple canned soups and turned on our fire power stove to see that it was still working which was good. We aren't completely without."Oh? Our stove is still working? That means we can eat an actual breakfast before the food goes spoiled." She said and I nodded with a smile then put the canned foods back. I watched my mom grab out some bacon and eggs and sausages before I walked out of the kitchen and went looking for some candles. No electricity meant no lights which meant we'll be sitting in the dark if we didn't have any candles to burn. I managed to find some candles in my mom's candle drawer then pulled out a couple lighters. I set them down on the dresser since we won't be needing them anytime soon.
Breakfast was soon done and I sat down at the dining table with my mom and we ate our breakfast. It almost felt like everything is back to normal but it isn't which puts extra weight on my shoulders. I calmly ate my food in silence while thinking about how the world will turn out later. Once I finished my breakfast, I washed mine and my mom's dishes and dried them off then put them back up in the cabinets. I then headed into my room and closed the door. I plopped down on my bed and stared up at the ceiling. I gently closed my eyes and sighed softly. Maybe I will become less stressed if I took a small nap and maybe when I wake up, everything will go back to normal and I will realize that this all was just a crazy dream. Or a nightmare.
