Always support me on Webnovel

 

Boom!!*

My wife is fainted because of stress. While my daughter is crying and trembling hard. I as the parent should calm her but... I am trembling hard myself.

"Don't worry Lily, daddy here." Said me trying to hug her harder.

Boom!!*

"Hmm!!!"

She is so scared. While trembling hard, I hug her. "Don't worry... Daddy here..."

How long is that time huh? I didn't know... The thing I know is that the sewer tunnel is full of ruin. Here, below the house. I set up a generator to support us for one year. It's just like that. There is a lamp using oil but, I can't depend on it.

Boom!!*

The sound of nuclear is still can be heard. If this absolutely would happen, I will bring my radio to below here...

Exhausted, we slept together in our hug.

Crack*

"Hmm?"

I woke up and looked at the ceiling. It cracked. My daughter? She is still in my arms. My wife? She still fainted. Gently, I put my daughter to the bed. Looking at her wearing a mask while sleeping makes me feel worried. What if she gets hard to breathe? 

Argh... Anyway, let's check around. The tarp I used to cover the sewer tunnel got ripped a bit. And...

The sunlight lightens the room the moment I open it. What a huge hole... And...

Is this our town now?

The town is burned to ash. Mom... Dad...

I close my hands together and pry. "Hope you rest in peace."

Ah! Where is it again!?

I remember that I bought a radiator check and some tools here. After all, this basement is like my hobby, engineering. Because I am an office man now, my life is so busy that I can't do this hobby anymore.

Hammer, screwdriver, flashlight, and... Gun. Never mind, that will be not used without any bullets. Ah... Here is it, Dosimeter. It will check radiation contamination around the air with just one button.

I brought it to the sewer and it shocked me. 1,2 SVC.

My wife is waking up.

"Um... This mask-"

"Don't!!"

She looked at me and slowly released her hand from her mask. After crawling on her, I showed the dosimeter to her. Suddenly, she hugged me. She starts to cry.

"Sob* Hey, Is, sob* Is everything gonna be okay?" Said her while hugging me.

I hugged her back and said to calm her down. "Yeah, everything gonna be okay." Said me.

"Mom? Dad?" Said her waking up.

I forced my smile on my daughter and said that everything was alright. She back to sleep. For now, let's not wake her up.

"Stephanie, you should calm yourself. For our Lily." Said me with a gentle voice.

She trembling and looking at me. "But... I am scared... What should I do...?"

I am too... But, as a parent, stand tall.

She looked behind me and got more shocked.

"A-america..."

Yeah, it's our beloved country. Or maybe I should said it, our beloved ruined country.

She hugs me back. "Just what's going on? What are we gonna do from now?" Said her with a sad voice.

Nor do I know what will we do. These foods, only stand about two months. The main problem is our mental. We can't stay inside this basement for two months later. It will make us stress and to the extent make us feel hopeless and despair.

When our conditions are calmer, we start the discussion about what will we do next.

Lily is sleeping and just two of us.

"The world was really destroyed." Said her with sad looking face.

"Yeah..."

We didn't even know what to discuss about. I am not an expert and she is too.

Scratch*

Huh?

"What are you doing Stephanie?" Asked me while looking at her scratching her skin.

She keeps scratching. "I don't know, it's feel itchy." Said her while kept scratching her arm skin.

"Wait! Don't do it!" Said me. She is trembling because of the itch.

I am confused about what should we do. The first thing and one thing to know is that this radiation can't touch our skin too much. Or it will be mutated. But, I just have this mask. And... The nearby hospital!! While my boss got TBC, I remember that the doctor used hazmat to treat him. Yes!!! That hazmat!! I should get it whatever the reason!!

I look at my wife again. She keeps enduring the itch feeling. I grab her shoulder. "I would be back. At that time, please cover Lily with something to prevent this radiation from touching her skin.

She nods and I get out to the radiated area with a hammer.

Take a deep breath, Alex... This is a radiated area. I don't know what will happen next, I didn't have a gun and just with this hammer.

At the time I stand on the broken road, my skin starts to feel like burning. The wind with high temperature blew up to me. Run...

The time I dig down this basement, I know something. This sewer end is around Volcano Mountain, the place where human trash is burned. So what's the point? I don't know!! Being calm and normal in this situation makes me feel sick!!! My wife is in danger because of this radiation. My daughter is losing her mind in this incident. I am afraid... scared... and yet, I am the most excited one to go on Adventure!!

Many people said to me that I am mad man. And yeah, the ones who told me like that are just poor people who didn't have a mindset to become rich like me. Challenge, danger, risk, chance... That's not necessary for me. Because what?? I am a madman!!! I love all of this heartbeat. Thinking that the next day my business would come down, thinking about myself in danger, taking high-risk investments... That made me feel excited and could not stop!!

But, Lily... My cute daughter. And yeah, the only one best friend I had, was my CEO.

Once I asked him. "Hey? You change a lot after you married you know?" Said me back then wondering why he didn't want to take a risk with me again.

"Oh? Are you curious? Not like you buddy..." Said him while holding a bunch of paper in front of me while sitting.

"Look, I am a genius businessman-"

"You are a madman, not a genius. I doubt all of your achievements didn't involve luck." Said him flat.

I turn back to the window behind me. "So what makes you change?" Said me wondering.

"Simple, if you get married, you will know how important someone is to you." Said him with a smile.

"From your word, having marriage will slow down your capability and will destroy your individualism." Said me doubting his words.

After some weeks, I met Stephanie. It's not like I love her. She is good and kind. It's just that... my dad and mom always asked me when they will get a grandchild. Because they are just bothering me, I propose to Stephanie.

My world didn't change significantly. The difference is that my house is not just me but with someone. I can't even go to the bar anymore. Watch some goodies on the stage, not anymore. It's not like I am happy to be like that. It's just all my workers are perverts and didn't know good places other than those places.

But, after I met Lily. My world changed. That's the first I think that I would not want to take any risk anymore. Living in peace with my family and maybe watching some stars in the sky. Having a house on the mountain around a cliff.

That dream, fortunately, becomes real. We had a good time as a family. And that's the start I love Stephanie.

It feels wonderful, it feels great... But, this world is not great for both of them. I take a risk once again for my family. Creating an area where my daughter can happily live. Donate to many education industries and create many relationships. It's just for my daughter can live without thinking about something else.

I thought that would be my last action. And now, I do it again. Taking great risks for my loved one.

Many people died, buildings were ruined, streets were broken, and even I couldn't see any animal live on my way.

Here... This is the hospital I thought about. There is a police station... Maybe I should go there for some gun.

I am going inside the hospital. Surprisingly, the hospital is not that ruined. But, that's not of the matter. The real hospital is below this small building. This is the hospital I invented for my family. The result is that if my family is hurt or sick, we can get free treatment here.

The lift would not go, I chose the stairs and ran on them one by one to below.

This is the hazmat. They still have many. Maybe... No, I refuse to bring all of them. Too heavy and I still worried about my family. I wear one of them and...

Tsk! They didn't have a small one. Calm, calm, nothing you get from panic. It will just make your mind blow up. Panic can make my health worse.

I took a deep breath and decided to bring three of them. Two for my family and one for backup.

Leaving the hospital, this suit filled me with uncomfortable feelings. I never use this suit after all. Sigh* Just endure it. But, thinking that I would wear it even while sleeping makes me feel tired.

I change my mind. Gun is not necessary for now. Some people are dead so what will happen to us anyway?

But... I am a naive1. I didn't know.

Those things come out from behind the hospital building. Furious with green liquid around their fang. Red eyes, black fur with some electricity... Just what is that monster?!

  1. quite uncomfortable for me to read.
