survival

- why don't you answer me? Is there something wrong? Just say something

No answer, just lies down and no words, he looks so lost, Even more than me, I can't leave him like that, he won't survive any second, does he want to escape? It seems not, but who cares, I need him to stay alive and get back to Alex... So I just waited a few seconds, to talk to him again...

- I can fill you, I know how does it fill... In your first days, you'll be so desperate, hating everything, blaming everyone for nothing, searching for a good and easy way to finish your life, but as an expert, you don't want to kill yourself, you just want to kill something inside of you, that something makes you suffer

- and how do you know?

- because I was like you in the few hours left

He looked interested to hear more, So I told the story from the beginning

- all of the stories start from two years ago, I was setting in the park writing my new novel, and that's when he arrived, his name is Max, the strongest one in our school, I felt something strange after I saw him, something made me so weak, something make me made me out of my mind, something made me go to him and says...

- what's the time now? 

- time? Hmmm, it's eleven o'clock

- still morning

- yeah

- do you have any programs today?

- no, you?

- same,  I'm going to a cafe, want you to join me?

- yeah sure

After a few days we start dating, restaurants, parks, cinema, we went to every place we could go, unforgettable memories, but before what did happen next, after a year he changed, start acting strange, especially after they named him the unstoppable because of the biggest win that he brings to the school football team, he starts cheating and dating other girls, that made me so mad of him, and after a few months, he left me, without any pity... But I still love him, and I need to survive to meet him again, I'm nothing without him...

- there's no difference between us, I've loved someone, a wonderful girl, and the most, we met inside of an online game, she was a gamer and the best one, with a short hair, she was an angel to me, after two weeks we start dating, a short girl wearing gold color glasses with blue eyes and black short hair, I miss her...

- how it ends

- she left me, goes away because of someone I didn't expect that she could love his type in someday

- God, but you need to go forward

- how? 

- it's a short life, do your best to dye happy, you have only one chance to do it

- I can't live anymore without her

- but you'll find another one, don't you have any friends?

- I don't have anyone, my life's so empty

I was shocked, he was so lost, more than I can imagine.

I can hear the bombs getting closer to our location, but from what we running? the world outside is like hell and people like us cant survive in it... It's useless, I can't stop thinking about max, also I can't forgive him for everything, I'm so lost, and it looks like I'm not the only one who left here, the both of us are dead inside

- my name is Jakob

- that's a strong name for a depressed kid

- my father named me, he felt like I can be special in the future, I guess he's wrong

- yeah? My mom named me Layla, she thought that I could be something in the future too, where's your father now?

- he passed away a long time

- that's funny, my mom did pass too

- how hard to live in this useless world

- yeah

I felt like I'm lost, but something inside woke me up, something made me gather my courage to stand up again, in somehow I need to survive, I've got nothing to fight for, but I must fight...

- tell me more about your ex-girlfriend

- why? What's the matter?

- I need to know more about her, now talk

- okay okay... Her name Katrina 

- nice, I need you to stand up and fight

- for what?

- for Katrina 

- but she left me

- because she thought that you are useless, approve that she's wrong about you, fight for her

- how? I'm just a jerk, a useless one I can't even protect myself from bullying 

- you will trust me you're stronger than you know, just stand up with me and I promise you, I will make you stronger

- okay, I'll try... What's the first step so

- we need to get the hell out of this madness before we die

- okay, let's do it so

Okay, all we need to do is get out of this place but not Run in exposed places, the vanished might see us and it could be the end, we need to run along narrow streets so that he couldn't see us from far, he might use some snipers or even motion sensor so we need to focus on this mission, our lives depend on it...

He was afraid at first, but everything changed when he saw her picture on his phone, took a look at me with strong eyes and said " I'll do it"... So we start running inside the narrow streets trying to hide between them so the vanished could not see us, luckily the army has put armored cars to transport peoples to safe places, and after a few miles from running between buildings covering hardly from bombs and fire we achieved to get there

We've achieved to get to the sanctuary and it was full of homeless people, those who destroyed their homes and lost their jobs, hopeless people got nothing left to keep moving, but they do keep moving, fighting this whole thing even for nothing, that's something we must learn from it, ive got and object in my mind, thats why I survived
