Unfortunately for Ali, the miracles stopped there; he’d run out of every bit of food he had two weeks ago, and his water stock had been depleted three days ago. His family possessed more money than over ninety five percent of the population, and yet here he was starving to death. That wealth hadn’t helped his father or mother one bit, and Ali knew his father was dead. He knew everyone was dead. He had waited in this shelter (his father had almost jokingly had this shelter put in place a few years ago) since sucking the last drop of water from the last bottle, wishing that somehow something new would come along to save him, but now he knew he had no choice. He would have to exit into what was left of the city.
