Perkatory: Coffee and Zombies

When the world ended, Zoe didn’t panic—she brewed coffee. The zombie apocalypse wasn’t the future Zoe envisioned when she took a job at Perkatory, a quaint little coffee shop in her quiet city. But when the undead began to rise, and chaos swept through the streets, Zoe stayed behind the counter, brewing lattes and pouring cold brews for the few survivors brave—or desperate—enough to wander in. For Zoe, the coffee shop becomes more than a job—it’s her fortress, her community, and her tether to the humanity slowly unraveling outside. With a dry sense of humor and a knack for creating the perfect cup of coffee, she navigates this new world of shambling corpses and eccentric survivors. Her regulars include an ex-military survivalist who insists on black coffee, a teenage gamer who livestreams his zombie kills over the shop's Wi-Fi, and a mysterious stranger who pays for his cappuccino in scavenged ammo. But Zoe’s life becomes more complicated when she discovers her coffee shop holds a secret. Hidden beneath the building is a bunker with supplies, a mysterious journal, and evidence of a government experiment gone terribly wrong—one that may have caused the zombie outbreak in the first place. Now, Zoe must decide whether she’ll step out from behind the counter to confront the horrors outside or keep brewing coffee in the eye of the apocalypse. In a world where the undead are relentless and survival is bitter, *Brew of the Dead* asks: can the little rituals of normalcy—like a warm cup of coffee—keep hope alive?

Shīzōng

"Zhou Hua Fan...Where do you plan to disappear now?" His voice was hoarse and sore thus successfully souring her little red nose. Leaning against the door that he had uncharacteristically pressed his trembling fists against instead of breaking down like he so wanted to in order to see her once more. Biting her lips, Hua Fan buries her face into her already shaking shoulders suppressing her cries. Wiping the endless tears falling into her arms when she continued to hear him plead her so quietly but desperately it tore her up inside. "Do you have to do this? Can't...Can't you let me love you?" The back of her hand was bitten raw as a soft sob broke free upon hearing his plea. ~~~~~~~~ Zhou Hua Fan did not accept other people's love or goodwill. Knowing from a young age that all of it came with strings attached her personality had already twisted before it could be fixed. No one saw it or tried to see it. People call Zhou Hua Fan a selfish demoness who would suck the bones from a person before lowering her head and apologizing. They despise her, they fear her, the lawless princess of the Zhou family. However, this princess who should have everything, does she really have it all? When asked this the people around her gave various answers. "She was pitiful." "No one hated her more than herself." "An unfortunate soul." Asked this question, the man with dark clouds permanently gathered above his head sharply raised his dagger-like gaze as if wanting to murder you who dared utter her name without permission. "You have no right to judge her."
