Once again, I woke up in an amazing mood. I could feel my body start to relax, the constant vigilance that I felt in my last life slowly leaving me. You never knew how hard on your body always being ready at any second was until you could stop doing it.
I mean, it wasn't instantaneous. It took me a few days to realize that the zombies weren't lurking in the dark alleyways, that they were not waiting for me to let down my guard enough to rush out and grab me.
But on the flip side, as I watched all these people going about their daily business, the smiles on their faces, the complete lack of fear, I almost felt bad about the shock they would be experiencing in a year.
It was a lot to adjust to, knowing that you were no longer the top predator in the world.
