There I could believe it. A place of peace and tranquility; alone and apart.
Somewhere it was easy to forget the zombie hoards, escaped animals and humans who had gone full psychopath.
A place where it seemed there was still law and order.
We had managed almost two years of visits before we lost that space. A miracle, really, when you thought about it. Especially given the lion incident.
The psychos kept it for only a week before the zombies took over.
Bill hands me a pill and I know everything will be alright, that peace will return to us.

What does that pill do?
ReplyDeleteIs Bill's pill a kill pill?
ReplyDeleteAt one point it was more clear what the pill did, but I thought it more fun to leave it open. Hopefully just a relaxant and nothing more sinister.
