Chapter Fifteen

The next morning, Mr. Franks awoke to the smell of maple-flavored bacon. He got out of bed and made his way downstairs to see who was cooking. He found Kurt Freeman in the kitchen whistling some tune he hadn’t heard in a long time.

“Kurt, why are you here so early? I don’t remember telling you I wanted you to make me breakfast.”

“Early? You better check your clock. It’s nearly nine in the morning. Don’t you normally get up by seven?”

Mr. Franks watched as he plated two eggs and four strips of bacon and placed it on the table. “It was a long night. I didn’t get to bed until after midnight.”

“I heard it was a big success. I heard the employees and their families enjoyed the park.”

“You didn’t go last night? I told you to enjoy yourself and not worry about me for the night.” He sat down and put cream and sugar in his coffee. “I think I reassured the reporters our park is safe. That’s what they all wanted to discuss.”

“They’re worried we’ll have a repeat of America on the island. I understand how they feel. I don’t think enough time has passed since the outbreak.”

“I couldn’t wait, Kurt. If we didn’t build this park right away, somebody else would have beat us to it. I don’t think the incident in America is going to keep people from coming here. It’s curiosity that will bring them. It’s like when there is a tornado outbreak. People are told to get to safety but they don’t. They get in their cars or stand outside to get a glimpse of the very thing they should be afraid of. It’s human nature to be curious.” He tasted one of his fried eggs. “Too much salt.”

Kurt laughed. “The eggs are exactly the way you like them.” He sat down at the table. “Have you been watching the news?”

“I haven’t had the time, why?”

“There are some reporters who are still reporting from America. They’re reporting California and Washington are the last states to fall to the outbreak. The military is thinning and are expected to abandon their posts.”

Mr. Franks looked at him curiously. “That doesn’t sound like the military. They’re highly trained. I didn’t think they would run from anything.”

“They’re still human. They’re just fighting a useless battle. It’s being reported there are pockets of survivors who are heading to Florida to try to find a safe place to hide. At least, that’s where the reports are being aired from. I can’t imagine how anybody could survive a zombie outbreak.”

“It can be done, Kurt. If you have the right weapons and the right mindset, you can survive. All you have to do is find somewhere with enough supplies and hope for the best.”

Kurt shook his head. “It sounds like one of your movies. Your characters always seem to find a way to survive.”

They were interrupted by Ted coming into the house. “I smell bacon.”

“We’re in the kitchen,” said Mr. Franks. “We have plenty if you’re hungry.
