Embarking on my own literary journey, I delved into creating a book series that delves into the realities of a post-apocalyptic world. Drawing inspiration from popular TV shows like "Walking Dead" and "Fear the Walking Dead", I started with the premise of an average family navigating through the onset of an imminent apocalypse. Little did they know that their city was already in the grips of a catastrophic event that would soon herald the end of humanity as they knew it. Join me on this thrilling and suspenseful ride as we explore the harrowing tale of survival, loss, and resilience in the face of a world teetering on the brink of chaos.

Chapter 1

Igor was sitting at a table in a small kitchen and having lunch before work. He worked in the evenings in the theater as a cloakroom attendant in the center of the city. All already in the morning were at work. And Igor was alone. He lived in a small city in an area on the outskirts of the city, in a two-room apartment in a five-story house on the top floor. He had an older brother who worked in the same theater as an electrician. My mother was a teacher, a few months ago she retired, but continued to work in the district school, which was next to the house. My father worked as a security guard in a restaurant, also in the center. Since childhood, Igor had health problems, namely with his heart, therefore, he was not taken to work anywhere, he could not enter the school, but he did not despair. He finished eleven classes, worked as a janitor, cleaner, he was not afraid at all and was not ashamed of any work, and then he was lucky, his brother talked and he was taken as a cloakroom attendant. Igor was a short, wiry, twenty-six-year-old boy, he had black, docile hair and dark brown eyes, a kindly and sympathetic character, in principle, like everyone else in his family.

–Already four o'clock in the evening, in an hour you have to be at the bus stop.

Igor thought to himself, glancing at the clock that stood behind the glass in the suspended kitchen cupboard. When he had finished his meal, he washed the dishes behind him and went to get ready for work, the curtain of wood on the door did not loudly curl up when he went into the hall. Igor turned on the TV to listen to the latest news and began to gather.

– Cases have become more frequent, new flu viruses have been infected, already, several educational

institutions have been quarantined, but according to the press service of the Ministry of Health, there are no reasons for concern. A nice young smiling speaker was broadcasting from the screen.

– Also, the Ministry of Health asks not to panic about the fact that it is now the middle of September and

not the season of colds, it's okay, it's just a virus that mutates, explains this strange outbreak of the virus. And to other news … a holiday to the day of the city, which will take place in two days, will be held, in the morning address the head of the city promised.

–The girl continued to talk.

Igor turned off the TV, strange, but as if the girl was not smiling, her words did not arouse any confidence. He was already going, as it was warm outside and he was not going to get together for a long time, he put on his uniform, it consisted of jeans, turtlenecks and waistcoat, took the "Working" bag prepared in advance, left the room. He put on his sneakers, his cap and went out of the apartment, he remembered walking down the stairs. his mother used to say to him literally the day before yesterday that they already had many sick at school and not only children. Igor, considering the news and the words of his mother did not notice how he was on the street.

The street was warm and well, and even somehow calm. There was a warm pleasant wind, children as usual frolicking on the playground near the house, and their parents were resting, sitting on benches. Igor went to the stop, this cheerful atmosphere in the yard temporarily distracted him from the news, after a few minutes in high spirits he was already at the bus stop and was waiting for the bus. To the thoughts of the news he was returned accidentally overheard conversation of two women standing at the bus stop, and waiting for the bus.
