Simon had long suffered from the rejection of the love of the girl he loved, but he had to come to terms with it, especially since she threw herself off the roof, it hit his morale even harder, now holding a gun at the ready to fight off monsters, he walked down the alley of an empty city.

Hearing a rustle behind him, he turned around sharply, saw another monster, he began to run away and shoot back, which he did, after which he abruptly turned the corner to a more secluded place and pressed his back against the wall, trying to catch his breath and tightly clutching the gun in his hands.

Taking a deep breath, he looked around and noticed you, but you hadn't seen him yet, because you were bandaging your arm, holding a syringe of morphine next to it, which Simon also used, and he tensed abruptly, moving away from the wall and taking a step toward you.

"Hey, who the fuck are you?"

He blurted out sharply and pointed the gun at you, but as soon as you looked at him, he froze, something trembled inside him, a strange feeling, his grip on the gun loosened, but he tensed abruptly, remembering that now was not the time for weakness.
