Chapter 35 - From Cluj to Athene - Part 15

In the earliest hour of this new morning, Radu, Anakin and Ho Lee are leaving the building they have stayed for the entire night, equipped with a few melee weapons like crowbars, knives, and Radu is carrying the improvising spear his brother has made in the plane. It was a little damaged after the impact, but it got fixed by Alin in the morning and handed to Radu to help him to search for anything useful in those marked buildings from the map.

Last night, two of those survivors have checked one building, which didn't end well, and the negotiations were cut short because of a crazy guy. These survivors decided to check the next four buildings to see if they can found something useful there, like some car's keys, a functional car, fuel canisters, food, and eventually weapons.

"We are crossing the street, and head on this one." he says Radu to those two people while he showed them a building in front of them, with a damaged roof.

"Do you think we can found something there?" asks Ho Lee.

"Anything's possible." responds Radu to Ho Lee.

All these three survivors have crossed the building, and the moment they were about to open the gate of this property, they do see a zombie on the garden coming at the gate. Radu has used his spear to stab this creature from the distance, but when he did that, the knife, from the top of the spear, got stuck into that zombie head, but it killed him. Ho Lee opens the gate, and comes into this property together with Radu and Anakin.

Radu is taking the knife from that zombie, and follows Ho Lee, while Anakin stays at their backs, and uses a crowbar instead of his toy lightsaber he bought from Kaufland at a small price. Ho Lee approaches the door of this building, he slowly opens it to the full. After he's done that, he and his team are marching slowly into this abandoned building.

While they were walking in the hallway, Radu sees a lot of broken things there like plates, wine bottles, and pictures. He also took a picture from the ground, and he sees a picture with a man and a young lady, most likely his daughter. Then, Radu puts this picture on a table, and decide to search on the first floor for something useful there, while his friends are checking the first floor.

When he got to the upper floor, he was shocked to his in the hallway one baby who is crawling to him. This made Radu feel a remorse in killing that baby, who wouldn't deserve such a fate at young age. But Radu has no choice, so he let the baby draws closer to him, and when he got to a close distance, he put his foot on the baby head, and he crushed the head of that creature, slowly. He pressed on him like a man would press on a sofa to test it if it is truly comfortable.

The moment he sees the thing stopped from crawling and saying weird sounds, he leaves the poor thing while he said with a slow voice and a tear in his left eye.

"I am sorry."

He enters the first room, and there he sees nothing. Everything there looks nice, and untouched. He then sees on the desk of this so-called bedroom because it presents a bed, and a desk. Radu looks at the picture, and he sees there a small girl pacing the camera. After the decor of the background, it seems that this girl was taking a picture at school. But when he checked the back of this picture he found the name of the girl, which was not the only part, there was also this: "N. 23.4.1999" and "D. 26.4.2010". And this means the date when she was born and the date when she died in other language. But this letter was written in Romanian language, so the owner and this girl were from Romania. Radu let that picture there, and he leaves the room,closing the door after him.

When he got to hallway, he sees there the door which is probably leading to the parent's bedroom. He had the curiosity to check but at the moment he grabbed the handle to open the door, he heard from their growls which made him to take out his hands from the handle and slowly leaves this floor. Radu has decided to not explore this whole floor. He already saw enough disturbed things here.
