Chapter 92

It was finally the 7th day and the last day of this hell.

While usually I am awoken to the piercing lights of the rising sun shooting through the cracks of the cave and trying to burn holes through my eyelids, today was a little different.

I had no dreams so when I woke up, I was not startled at all... Or at least that was the case until I smelt something weird in the air.

I had always heard that the normal human being cannot be awoken to a smell of any kind and therefore that was the reason why smoke detectors were so needed across all first world countries and even any good houses in third world countries.

However, what I had been woken up to was the smell of burnt barbecue, making me even more confused than I had already been.

'Why would anyone have a grill this early in the morning.' I thought to myself, slightly wishing that the last 6 days in this hell hole had been just a nightmare that I had finally woken out of and would eventually forget after a few years, possibly already having married to Crystal and with two kids to look after.

I was kept in my daze by this scene. The scene of the two of us in a home, far away from the cities where we could simply look outside and find the waters of the shore washing up the sand and retreating back into the ocean.

I imagined... watched as two kids ran in the distance while I shouted at them to not move too far away from us...

Me and crystal both watched them on our beach bed as we clung tightly to each other like the happily married couple we were.

The feeling... The cold breeze of the oceans passed in between us and made us cling even tighter to each other.
