Just talk

-----The blood sucks, i can't stand having to wash my clothes when I go back to the museum or wear those raincoats that only make moving difficult, I don't know how you do it, come back and just have a few tiny blood stains on your clothes Dimitri.

-----I just avoid unnecessary fights, you should do the same.

----You're right!,...accept a cigarette ?

---- No tranks, you know this reduces your life expectancy, even more in the world we're living in.

------You and Carlos have this in common, I tried to offer him one and he got all weird, answering your question, i smoke one a week i don't think it will cause me a problem.

-----I don't think it helps much, in the long run you can even get cancer.

-----I'm free to do what I want....so I can smoke in peace? without you giving me a "winners don't do drugs" lesson.

----Wasn't it freedom that caused all this? Maybe freedom is not a good thing for humanity, see where we are because of "freedom".

----.....Changing the subject, What is the story of the book you are reading?

-----About time loop.

----...

---....(coughing).

----But what the story is about.

----.....Do you want to know?

-----Of course!

----..... Ok, the story is about an asteroid that will collide with a city killing all its inhabitants, a young man named Teddy through an error in space time manages to return 1 day to the arrival of the asteroid, the story is about acceptance, that some things can't be done and the best thing is to accept, was written in 2010 by a Canadian named Noah Brown, it's very philosophical, most people don't like that side of the book.

-----I think I would like that philosophical side, I always like it when I see it in movies...hey now that i noticed you don't have a russian accent or at least nothing noticeable.

------When I decided to learn English, stay focused on speaking as Americans speak from slang to an accent.

------You're dedicated huh, most immigrants don't care about the accent, want to hear something interesting? It's from a guy I met when I was outside.

-----Sure, why not.

------well.... (cough) weeks ago, i was just finishing looting a certain region, when i went to a hardware store, i heard someone throw something, the noise seemed to have come from a bolt door, later I found out that the door led to the warehouse, I put my hatchet in my hands, said a little low so the zombies wouldn't hear "hey who's there". A calm voice answered me "Don't need to worry I don't want to cause you problems, I'm behind this iron door if you wanna talk, I haven't talked to human beings (laughs) for a while..... for some time". I approached the door cautiously, as he could be some kind of crazy, I said "hi, are you ok there?", The voice responded again with the same calm tone "Good (cough)... depends on what you call "good", let's say I was bitten a day ago by a (cough)... zombie.", I know what you're thinking when I heard what he said I said right away" Bullshit, when someone is infected it lasts a maximum of 2 minutes". "Believe it or not but that's what happened" was what he replied, he continued. " You know I want the man in the boots to come back soon and make it all over, I really want him to", I tried to ask who was this man in boots he was talking about, but he never answered clearly, i asked if he could open the door, but he replied that he didn't have the strength to open it (cough) .

-----what happened next?

----Spent a few minutes of small talk with him, he talked some crazy things about meeting a bird and other shit, some zombies started to approach the store, I told him and he replied "Better go, you're young, I haven't seen you, but from your voice it looks like you're young... go enjoy the good side of it all And remember Just talk people that the man in the boots will save them all". I left and went back to the museum, I met him again, but that's for another day I'm tired of talking, What do you think ?

------It looks like he was drugged or had some dementia, but... it seems like there was something weird, like he was absolutely sure something was going to happen soon.

----I don't know what to think either, it sounds crazy but of... somehow it's interesting and true, anyway I hope to find more people to stay in the museum.

Little did James know what would happen to him exactly a month later.
