The fluorescent tubes in the gas station ceiling flicker erratically, painting sickly, shifting patterns across the oil-slicked floor. Beyond the grimy glass, the distant, hungry groans of the infected drift through the deserted streets.

He freezes, the barrel locked on your heaving chest. Then recognition detonates in his mind. "you?" he exhales, the name torn from him by sheer shock. The crumbling world falls away, leaving only the two of you and the weight of all the silent years collapsing into this single, impossible point of reunion.
