Before The Supernova
November 27th, year 2962. We're leaving Earth. I would never think that I would leave my planet to go in Cypris galaxy. Just because the stupid sun is exploding. Why do we have to leave now? We could stay here for another three days! Three days and the sun will get destroyed by a black hole. I just can't believe that I am actually standing in front of this spaceship. I know that if I don't leave, I'll die anyways. Knowing I would die anyways, couldn't I just die at birth? I hate this feeling. We're just never coming back here but we had to let everything we had in our houses. Just so that everybody on the new planet starts 'Equal'... What to do after? It will just restart like on Earth. We will get on this planet, not knowing what to do for food, most people will die, then when we bring all our technologies in the place, we will destroy the planet again. It's just a vicious circle. I don't want to leave. I don't need to leave. I just hoped those things were fakes and we were going to come back in three days, seeing the sun was still there, we wouldn't have to leave again. But it's practically sure it's not a fake. If it wasn't from all the bodyguards around the ship, I'd run back home and enjoy my last three days alive. So many people to evacuate the country. I don't feel like we need to do this. Soon, it'll be our turn to get in that flying polluting thing I don't even want to take. It's better to die then to live fifty years in a stupid spaceship to end my life on a planet I can't even find the name anywhere. I don't know why, but I have the feeling that the worse could happen to me if I get in the spaceship. Suddenly, I feel something weird happening. I can't go on the new planet. No! I can't do it! I ran out of the line, knowing we were the last people in it. The bodyguards already got in also. I'm alone on this empty continent. I see fire getting out of the reactor of the spaceship. It's leaving without me. I don't regret my decision. My parents didn't even see me. Too worried about my know-it-all brother that left yesterday. I'm the only person left on this American continent. I'm alone. Three days to live, then just nothing. As the spaceship disappears in the blue sky, I feel good, relieved and I just need to say it's fine and deny everything else around me. I can live long even if the sun doesn't explode.
"It will." I tell myself.
It's fine anyways. I go in my house, sit on the couch and just eat what's in my fridge and my dog's still there. I have no idea why would the government refuse we leave our pets here. Ridiculous. I just want to go walk outside with him, marching on the highway. The weirdest feeling ever. I do that. I go with my dog, not leashed, and it's perfectly fine. No cars, no people and the coolest thing of all, not a single sound. That's weird. Shouldn't people have let their electricity on, knowing it didn't matter anymore. I just ignore it. I don't want to think about it anymore. I'm the last person that will be on Earth in two days. Evacuations finish tomorrow afternoon. It's currently eight in the morning. With everything left here, even flying cars some people didn't hide, in case they were fakes. I hear my phone tell me: "Energy time Sam. Energy time Sam." I shut it up, but instead of walking, I run. I don't even have overweight. My parents bought this because I love sports. I still can't figure out the name of the planet. Then I realise that Milo, my dog, is no more behind me. I call him two times, then stop, I don't care anymore. I'm happy I didn't leave. I pass by a house, just beside the highway, with all its lights opened. It's my friend's house. Then I see something incredible. Everyone on the continent was supposed to leave today, but she's there! I can't believe it! Felicia! I run over to her house and ring the bell
