18 Floors Above the Apocalypse
Chapter 155
Chapter 155
With the prolonged high temperatures, the water level decreased rapidly. The survivors who had been staying inside started coming out in the morning and evening. Determined to keep her secret safe, Stella made a resolute decision to stop her outdoor excursions.
After several days of working from dawn to dusk, exhaustion took over, forcing her to rest for several days to recover her strength.
Sitting under the cool breeze of the fan, enjoying a chilled watermelon, Stella started to strategize for the 1803 group, planning how to ensure their safe arrival in Lincoln.
She took a batch of fresh vegetables from Arcadia and handed them over to Cody and Lukas to dry on the balcony. "These are freshly harvested. Dry them out and store them tightly. You can eat them whenever you want." Touched, Lukas asked, "Stella, you're giving all your vegetables to us. What will you and Jasper eat?"
"The seeds are meant to be shared," she replied. "We don't know what conditions you'll face there, so we're preparing some for you. We'll just eat less."
Having grown up together, words of gratitude were deemed unnecessary.
Cody and Lukas took the vegetables to the rooftop, where the concrete floor was scorching. The fresh leaves wilted visibly within moments of being spread out.
In less than half a day, the leaves crumbled at a touch. Once packed in bags, they resembled broken crumbs.
Not only did Lukas and Cody not complain, they treasured the dried vegetables immensely. While others were surviving on cockroaches and rats, they were fortunate to have vegetables. Expressing discontent would seem ungrateful. However, they had their concerns.
"Do you think we can survive without Stella?" Lukas asked Cody with a gloomy expression.
"We just have to try our best," Cody replied thoughtfully. "We can't rely on Stella forever, can we?"
Stella wasn't their mother. It was already commendable that she, as a friend, had gone to such great lengths to help them. They knew they would eventually have to fend for themselves.
Both of them understood what this separation implied. It might mean they would never see each other again in this lifetime. Just the thought of it weighed heavily on their hearts.
