My name is Bernice,
Many on the Island say that I am the richest person in the world. I say hogwash because there is not wealth anymore…
I am sitting here having a cup of real coffee with Stryker and telling him my story of the beginning of the Zombie Virus…
My husband bless his soul, use to say something and I heard it so many times that I almost divorced him, he would never shut up about three things…
Coffee, tea and salt! Those were the three items that he said would make anyone rich. He said that the world would always need coffee, tea and salt…
Well until the Zombie Virus attack, we were dirt poor! My husband put every penny we had into stocking, coffee, tea and salt. I am the proud owner of huge warehouses full of coffee, tea and salt…
No one on this Island has any coffee tea and salt, except me! The huge salt plants that we have on New Zealand are still overrun with Zombies, by the hundreds of thousands and no one ever thought it necessary to stock tea and coffee. Well that is except my husband…
I remember that I woke to my husband coming home early morning. That was normal for him, because he also met the ships at the dock to try to make deals on coffee and tea…
I heard him muttering around in the kitchen and I decided that for once I would get up and see what he was doing. I still really loved him, except this coffee and tea thing he had and recently salt thing, was driving me crazy…
I walked into the kitchen and was not prepared for what I saw. He was sitting at the kitchen table and he had blood all over him. I sat down across from him and asked if he was okay. He said, “yup” and then fell face forward onto the table top…
I then thought, “Fight, drunk and stupid!”
I turned to get a clean cloth and wet it in the sink. That is when I turned around and right in my face was my husband, but it was not my husband. Those beautiful blue eyes, that everyone said went so well with my green eyes, were dull gray and bloodshot. I could see that no one was home upstairs in his brain and in fact I recognized immediately that he was a Zombie…
I have always been fascinated by Zombies and my husband was a Zombie and all I could see in his eyes was the fact that he wanted my brain to eat…
Well I did not hesitate, nor did I say to myself, “But that is my husband!” I just grabbed the nearest thing that my hand found and it was a cast iron skillet and very heavy. Since the adrenalin was flowing inside of me, I crushed his head like a ripe melon…
That very moment my next door neighbor burst in through the front door of my house and he saw me standing there with a skillet and a dead Zombie husband on the floor. He then said, “Looks like you know what is happening!”
He then turned real quick and I saw him blow his kids head off in my doorway. What a wonderful start to the morning, huh?
I then quickly got dressed and him and I made our way to my warehouses. My husband believed in fortress type warehouses and I knew that nowhere was safer. We picked up 10 more as we made our way there and ended up with 8 of us total as we kept loosing people to Zombies as we went…
Since New Zealander’s are not rude, crude and socially unacceptable. I have had no problem with my empire of coffee, tea and salt. Everyone gets some, as it is rationed and I get what is needed also in return. I get eggs and such for coffee and such…
They like to play money games and say I am worth trillions, but I know that we are all worth trillions, we have survived so far and that is what is important…
So my crazy husband and his dream of a coffee, tea and salt empire has come true. I just wish he could have been here to see it all come true…
New Zealand: The only country on earth left with coffee and tea. Don’t try to come here and get it! We are watching for you other countries and just like we have beat the Zombies we will beat you too…
Bernice…
