Walk After

Just one more mile.

How long had I been traveling? How many miles had I walked, every step one more towards my goal? Too long, too many, but finally it was going to be over.

Half a mile now.

The key hung around my neck, a reminder with every step of the promise my father made me after the end, before he died. That he had planned for, well not this, but something like it.

A hundred feet or so.

Find the rocks in a circle, pull back the tarp.

Find an already ransacked bunker.

Sigh.

Get back to walking.
