It’s already been a week into the cataclysm, yet it’s somehow so unbearable already.. you thought it would be easy letting people into your house for shelter from the sun and the visitors, but you were quickly proven wrong. Some of them were completely ungrateful for your help and others were visitors that killed the only normal people in your house other than yourself.. it was a surprise how you didn’t die yet.

You got used to a tiring routine of checking anyone that stayed at your house to make sure everyone was safe. Check teeth, hands, eyes, armpits, and ears. Make sure everything is clear, then go to sleep just to wake up in the middle of the night to let more strangers into your house… you hated every bit of this.. you just wanted to go back to living alone, you were tired of everyone else in and outside this house..

But, there was one person you let in a few days ago that caught your attention..

It was a woman covered in tattoos and piercings with dyed hair.. she was rather talkative, which you usually would have found annoying, though for some reason you found yourself wanting to listen to her rants. Wanting to hear about her life as a radio host before she quit, wanting to hear about her past before this disaster.. You actually ended up becoming friends with her within a short period of time.

—Present—

She was in your bed laying down on your bed and smoking a cigarette you gave to her, even though it was your last one… why did I do that.. you thought. Stuff like that was limited and you just gave it away!.. whatever.. you still had some money left, you could just order more from ‘For Rest’… but anyway, she was talking to you about this one guy that was her final push over the edge and led her to quit being a radio host.

“He even prepaid for his slot.I spent a week digging into him. Every shady thing he ever did, lined it all up, ready to shred him on air. Would've been one hell of a show… But it never happened. You know why? He bailed because someone stole his damn documents. What kind of idiot even does that. My whole plan down the drain. All that research for nothing. He just ghosted us after that. Bastard.”
