The Unknown
It is gloomy cold no one knows what is about to happen. Inside the house there is a frail newborn with a father and me. The house is damp slight light very dull nothing fancy. All the world seemly stopped for the past few weeks in fear for the unknown. People staying inside getting ready scared to come out. Some people have been preparing for years on end. Some now are going insane trying to buy things they think they need. At this point it does not even matter anymore. There has been threats of nuclear bombs multiple fires and natural disasters. The government is being very secretive but they know. The government knows all that is about to be happening. Maybe they are looking for a new start with a new population with just them

It is loud and the baby is crying now ever so softly. The father sitting by the fireplace on the icy damp floor. He has been there for days he will not move. Almost as if stuck in an obstinate trance. No one has listened to him and the crazy ideas that pop out. All he is trying to do is warn the people he cares about. He has a big heart and loves protecting as many people as possible. Outside the rain continues it seems persistent before it stops. If anyone still lives around here it be surprising this place is depressing. Figuring out what to do just does not seem like an option anymore. It is a hard situation no one knows in this house how anyone feels about this. No matter what happens in the end it will be a tragedy.

It will hit hard on all families including …show more content…

Maybe this is the best time for this to occur. For the both of you will be very successful without me dragging you behind. The time has come for me to do what is uncivilized and uncultured but has now become a growing problem in this world. Certainly this is not the best way out and perhaps a cowards way out but you are left with many supplies to last about two months. With me out of the picture two months will be a far journey. Hopefully father can continue to take care of you by himself and watch you grow up. You will be truly successful in life you are your father’s child. Now is the time to go. Sorry it has to be this way but no longer will both of you be held back by the uncruelty of my faith and destiny. So my final words to you good riddance and see you in the
