Day 16 (2)

Dear Diary,

I made it out to the street and I am slowly making my way out of the city. I have been trying to stay as quiet and as hidden as possible as to not attract any unwanted attention. I came across a newer looking car but left it alone because it likely had a car alarm and that would have brought all kinds of attention my way if I set it off. Down the road a bit I found an old beat up truck and I figured it might be good to check for supplies since I doubted it would have any kind of alarm. I was about to give up but I’m glad I didn’t stop because I struck gold, Beef Jerky! It’s not bullets for my pistol but at least I won’t starve for a day or two. I’m starting to get exhausted so I am going to try and find a place to make a shelter and see if I can hide and rest. I want to keep moving away from the fires and gun shots I keep hearing but I don’t think I will be able to make it much further without rest. I thought about climbing a tree to get out of sight but I was afraid I would fall asleep and then fall out of the tree with my luck. Another option was using some of the scrape I found lying around to make a shelter but that seems like it would be bring attention to myself as an obvious place someone was hiding. I decided it would be best to hide in the brush and lay low and maybe find some food in the bushes. How long has it been seen I saw her… I can barely remember…

I have a pistol & 1 backup food supply, I'll choose option 1 this round.
