Dear diary,
March 30, 2010
Today was another boring day. Blake said that the number of those infected people outside has grown into the thousands, but that is the reason why I am no longer allowed on the roof anymore. He says there is nothing to see out there. So I can go into the toy store and play with all the toys I want. That is the best part.
Oh yeah there is also three other people. There is Karen who is the police officer here. She was here when it began and even saved our lives as well by opening the doors to let us in.
Then there is Kali. She is 15 years old and was at work delivering newspapers a block away in the morning that it happened. She is shy, but very nice; Kali also loves to play with me. We like to play with Logos and Brats Dolls, even though I can tell she doesn't like to play with the dolls too much..
Then there is Toby, who I think is ancient. Don't tell him I said that. He really doesn't talk much and is kind of rude. He never said hi or even gave me a smile.
Well everyone is calling me for dinner. We get to have chicken. Yay!

Today was horrible. Toby got very mean to me and even called me a very bad name. He said that I was driving him crazy with always being so happy despite everything that is going on. I can't help if I am happy. Blake said that I should just ignore Toby and what ever he says.

Ok I give up trying to sound like a little innocent 9 year old around people. I am 9 yes, but in school I was very gifted. So instead of being in 4th grade I was going to be heading into 6th at the end of the summer. Truth is I hate this place. I want to leave, but I dare not tell this to my brother because I know he is trying his best to keep me sane and safe. With that I try my best to be happy and now I am off to go play a game of tag with Kali.

I want to officially leave this place now. The food is running short and everyone is going crazy. Now what I mean by that is Toby for instance yells at everyone for everything.. He even yelled at me because I was walking to quick and loud. Give me a break. The guy doesn't even move from his chair all day. He demands that his food be brought to him and that we all go to bed when he says.
I don't listen though. Blake even stays up late with me and reads me stories from when he was my age. Can you believe it I am starting to forget the outside world? It has even been a month since I was on the roof. Blake told me though that tomorrow we can go up there along with the others.
Emma closed her diary and looked back at the others who were having another argument. Blake was sitting in a corner talking with Kali. Emma knew that by the way they acted around each other that they were in love.
"Hey Blake!" she shouted running over to her brother happily. He looked up from talking with Kali and smiled as Emma parked a seat next to him. Kali also gave a smile.
There wasn't really much to talk about anymore. All of them had basically told their lives and everything they had did or had wanted to do before the zombie take over.
Blake then looked back at Kali. "So where are your parents then?" he asked as she looked away. "My mom died when I was 3 and my dad was never really home due to his job at the local lab. Right now I have no clue where he is and personally could care less." She answered as Blake could only nod sadly. Emma looked at both, their faces showing both curiosity and sadness.
"So when are you two going to go out and then get married?" Emma asked, both looking at her as though she were crazy.
Then they burst out laughing. "Emmy, why would you think something like that? We are just good friends?" Blake asked trying his hardest to stop laughing. "Well you look happy when you are with her and I just figured you liked her more than a friend." She answered a little confused.
He looked back at Kali who gave a little smile at the thought. Emma could see her brother starting to blush. Love seemed confusing to her. If you say you only like some one as a friend then why do you act silly around them?
She just shook her head "Right Blake. I will believe that when the zombies stop eating people." She replied.
The next morning Emma couldn't wait to go outside. She didn't want to go to see the roaming zombies, but get some fresh air and maybe a few rounds of jump rope. "Come on.." she wined dragging her brother to the entrance of the stairs. He ignored her for a minute as he watched Kali finishing breakfast.
Emma looked back at him to see he was beginning to drool. "HEY JULIET YOUR ROMEO DROOLS OVER YOUR PRESENCE!" she yelled grabbing her friend's attention and Blake's.
She blushed as Blake turned away and whipped his mouth. His gaze then shifted to Emma who was laughing. "Why you little!" he yelled chasing her up to the steps. As she ran up the steps, she accidentally ran into Toby.
He angrily pushed her out of the way and continued down the stairs mumbling something that couldn't be heard. Blake quickly caught his sister as she fell back and yelled back at Toby. "Don't you dare hurt my sister again you grumpy old fart!" he yelled walking the rest of the way up the stairs with his sister.
"Why does he hate me?" she asked. But Blake dismissed the question and changed the subject. "Here why don't you go play jump rope and I'll be over in a minute. Also remember I don't want you to go near the edge of the building. Do you understand?"
She nodded happily and ran to the back of the building and started to jump. Blake then took the time to look over the roof himself.
What he saw made him almost vomit. There had to be over a thousand of those things down there. Each letting out a moan of hunger. He picked up a rock and threw it at one of them. "You ruined me life and my sister's you filthy things." They looked up at him and began to moan even louder. Pieces of them were missing, the blood long run out of their blood. He mumbled as Kali came behind him. Karen sat on the other side of them deep in thought. She to really didn't talk much, but was also very nice. Blake saw her as a good mother figure for Emma.
"Hey there Romeo." Kali whispered in his ear, then pulled away laughing. He turned around and smiled. "Hey there Juliet." He said back.
"Blake. Blake look what I can do!" she shouted doing a jumping backwards with the jump rope.
