The one who still thinks

You

• P1Bitten. Died last night, woke up this morning. No pulse, no breath.
• P1Still thinks. Still talks. Can hear Lily's heartbeat from the kitchen.
• P2Left Lily three words on the table: I'm still me. Went out the second-floor window.
• P2Walked through the street. Thirty of them smelled you, and walked past.
• P3Carried Theo out through thirty of them, with his neck next to your mouth.
• P4Walking Theo to Saint Jude's, eight miles away, so he can find his mom.
• P4Smelled Theo's blood. Hunger hit ninety. Told him to run.
• P4Mouth tied shut with the string from Theo's hood.

The neighbor's kid

Theo

• P2Eight. Red cap, blue hoodie. Found on a car roof with thirty of them around it.
• P3You mowed his lawn every Saturday. Five dollars. He paid you in quarters.
• P3Screamed when he saw your face. Then you said his name, and he held out his arms.
• P3His mom is a nurse at Saint Jude's. She said she'd come back for him.
• P4Called her on channel seven eleven times. Only static.
• P4Slipped at mile two. His knee is bleeding.
• P4Didn't run. "You didn't leave me. I'm not leaving you."
• P4Tied his hood string around your mouth. "There. Now you can't."
