What do you mean?, It’s not the end, We are still here, We made it, Amelia says. I know it’s just… my dad says that we will face enemies that are worse than the infected, Derek says. Before all of this, I didn’t know what I was going to do with my life, I just sat home watching TV and each year my mom and dad would bring me to the fair, we would ride the ferris wheel and I thought that I had control of my life, but then life hit me and it hit hard my mom was diagnosed with cancer a couple weeks later she died, my dad drank and drank, but one day when I came home from school I saw him lying there on the floor in a pool of his own blood, with a knife in his hand, I was put with my grandparents and a year later this happens I lose my only family, Amelia says.
