An Uncertain Future
Laura looked up at the sky and wondered for the billionth time what things were like before the event. She shook her head, she couldn’t think like that, she had to focus. They needed to find food and get to shelter before the heat of the day really began to get bad. Her mother had been young when the event happened and most of what she talked about was the heat and how it hadn’t been this hot back then. Scientists had warned of the potential risks if mankind did not find an alternative to fossil fuels in the next 5 years. Their timeline had been a bit…optimistic. Not that many people had believed them anyway. She liked to think she would have believed the scientists if she’d lived before the event. Laura didn’t much care for the heat and wished she could have experienced the times her mother reminisced about to her. She liked to think she could have done something, if she had just been there, to preserve those wonderful times so many had taken for granted.
