Episode 1: blue skies
2021 the humanity was almost eradicated, (almost) on its extinction. Some survived maybe to have a new start, just literally a new beginning for human beings.
the smell of rotten corpse where all over everywhere. in a million people only 100 remains. i mean in 7 billion people around the world only few left and you should do the math, im not good at it.
after the last infected of Covid 19 strand X virus died the virus was also eradicated. only those who stayed long enough in their bunker have the chance to tell the story, have a chance to save those filthy specie that harmed the earth for a very long time called human. i hope those one who's left was worth a second chance.
this is fred a young boy that working as a tenant in a country side of central america. one of the lucky survivor that was so scared to go out of this barn. being afraid did a great job making him still alive. he finally went out after a month without any news coming out from his old radio. maybe all the broad caster died and no one left to say that it is safe now to go out.
fred finally openned his door, letting the sun shines again in the smelly dark barn he was residing. all of the other animals also went out for a quick run, but the other barn animals that was eaten by fred was surely will stay inside. he streches his arms and smell the good old fresh air in the country side, and stops when he inhaled some faulty odor from dead corpse nearby.
after a long months of staying indoor doing nothing he was ready to do some chores. not ordinary work because he needs to dispose rotten bodies to prevent other infections. he wears a full suit given by the government half a year ago. i think he was surely a smart ass using it for the infected bodies. he was certain that the dead bodies cannot infect anyone as the researchers' say before. but he feel secure walking around wearing that rubber astronaut-like whole suit, even it was not so comfortable at all.
"the one who's thirsty will dig a well" he tells on his self
in a week, he finished cleaning in a 1 kilometer radius from his house. its already done. all the his vomit when a body part was detached accidentally will certainly be worth it in inhaling a good air of the outside world. the next thing he will do is to think that what in the fu**ing world he will do alone in earth.
fred was a clever, bright and handsome boy,19 years of age. no proper education but the good thing is the barn had a lot of educational books that he studied. that is because books are the only thing that preventing him making his own imaginary friend, if you know what i mean. he learned botany, zoology, paenthology even astronomy and many other more. 8 months alone in the barn can make all of this posible. by the way the barn owner was a book keeper, a retired teacher.
fred is a virgin, inosent young boy. he looks like a hot man due to physical labor he's doing as a job. the wage was so little that he doesn't have any property, but money have no use now. maybe other people are exchanging goods for better things but were not so sure. fred didn't got a chance to enhance his social skills and maybe he will not gonna need to use it.
days have passed fred started to stock everything that he needs. food, shelter, gears, clothing, survival skills that he practiced with a book, and other unusual things like corks and alcoholic beverages even though he haven't even tried drinking it. he also prepared a big hammer truck full of supplies if he wants to go in a journey. the problem is there is no communication he can use. he have a lot of smartphones charged but there are no network or radio. in the end he doesn't have anyone to talk in the other line.
months have passed, everyday he is doing something useful but now he haven't have any idea what to do next. he set up a fence of his teritory. putting a lot of lights in his land maybe someone will notice it at night. he doesn't feel bored, empty, nor annoyed on his daily life now. he just move on and doesn't think about what on the earth will happen now. will he die alone or he will die alone with his barn animals.
another 8 months have passed and he became tired of doing anything. he became tired of studying and mastering 16 books from different field of science, arithmentic, politics, engineering, machinery, he even make his own woodcrafts because of boredom. now he just sits on his own café naked in the middle of the road while watching tons of movies on his lawn. he connects 6 108' tv that looks like an outdoor cinema. he watches so loud that he was 100 meters away from the screen and he can still see it clearly.
another 4 months have passed and he is now a pro hunter. wild animals begin to roam everywhere that he made it a sports shooting anthlers and kill it with one shot. he went back home and he saw that his café was shattered. he heard a loud music coming out of his entertainment set up.
he reload his rifle and quietly sneak in. he cannot see anyone. step by step, carefully and slowly looked everywhere for the intruder. he saw a big truck like from a zombie movies full of gears and horns on front and an ugly painting skills on its back. he looked inside but no one was there. he followed the tracks left behind from the truck towards his house. the track was chips, a junk food left in the ground. it clearly says that the person that intrude d his terittory was eating some snacks.
he turned off the loud music so he can hear better. he sits down and listen for sounds. after a few seconds he heard a loud snore. he openned his eyes and followed the noise. prudently he steps one at a time until he came to one of his tent where his king size bed was located and all the soft stuffs he collected. he lean against the bed. the snore was so loud that he thinks it was from a big old, father-big-tummy look a like person, with hair in the chest kind of person. he slowly take a peak on the person.
he saw first the big dirty sole of a boot. he swallow a lump and build his courage and stand up. he look at the person with a mean look to make himself look a bit scarier. in an instant, he sits down again and cannot believe his eyes. the big man he thought was a girl. he didn't see it clearly but he's sure that the girl was in 20's, wearing a bikini, a pair of dirty boots and a cowboy hat.
he stands up again to confront her. it is more easy for him if she was a man, but now he's not just afraid he's also shy. in a long time he finally meet a mate. i mean another person. he get some sticks from the ground to poke the girl. but in his hurry and shaky hand he accidentally drop the stick on the girls belly. he slowly tried to get the stick but suddenly the girl sit on the bed and shout.
"who the f*ck turned off the music!?" the girl said loudly. fred's so afraid that he didn't move an inch. the two of them looked at each other and 3 seconds later the girl shout out of shock because a random stranger man's hand was on his belly with a stick poking her breast. fred doens't mean it but it still looked so malicious. the girl accidentally hit fred's chin with her knee and our boy passed out because of the impact.
fred got concious and still dizzy. he noticed that he now wears nothing but underwear and with a marker writing on his chest. "im a pervert", and he doens't know that he also have a d*ck drawing on his forehead. he looked around and she's gone, the truck was still there but the humiliation that happens to him will forever be in his mind. he still thinks about it and about to cry.
"hey!!" he heard the girl, and he looked behind. the girl was now wearing only towel, in head and in the body. he stand up and answered
"yes?". he's about to explain but the girl asked
"do you have any meat to eat?". fred shouted
"yes!" and run toward his freshly killed deer and bring it to the girl. the girl just stands there while brushing her teeth. the girls face turned annoyed. "do you have anything ready to cook? i'm really hungry now." the girl ordered like she's in a restaurant or something. fred immediately let go of the deer and run inside the house and shouted
"yes!".
our poor boy now doesn't feel ackward after wearing pants and shirt, and became busy grilling boar's meat, making ram's stew and blending some fruit juice. he is both happy and excited because now he have someone he can call companion. in just 45mins and 13 seconds he prepared a delicious meal for them to eat. he placed it on top of round table on his lawn and now he's pulling two gaming chair for them to sit. the girl now is wearing a oversized black shirt with a punisher logo on it and a towel hanging on her shoulder, she got it from fred's closet.
the two of them eat silently. the girl eat with one leg on the chair. our man start eating and cannot stop looking at her blonde messy hair and beautiful face. he wants to ask something but he was too shy.
"you have a fairly good cooking skills" the girl said while devouring a top class stew. fred blushed and answered
"yes." she's eating like a construction worker. some food was on her face, she have uncombed hair, sitting like a boy and eating with a lot of noise.
"can you still cook more for dinner". our fred said yes. the girl got annoyed and throw the towel to fred.
"is that the only word you can say?!" she wipe her face and stands up.
"get me some water!" she ordered again. fred said yes,
"you fucking cunt talk properly!!" she shouted and fres answered
"YES! umm NO! i mean uhm wait here" fred startled and run inside to get some water.
the end of the story and now fred have someone to talk to.
