《28 Weeks Later (Rewrite)》Prologue

Thomas pov.
It's been several days since the "Virus" happened, and I never have seen anything like it, it happens so fast. We didn't even see it coming, from one moment we were at a wedding then we heard screaming and loud noises, next thing was people broke into the church and started to attack people then they attacked us but what was disturbing was thier eyes. They were not brown, blue, or hazel except red..... angry bloody red eyes...... it looks like you are staring at someone who isn't human anymore or you are looking into the eyes of a demon.
My dad, step-family, and I were the only ones to make it out alive. We try to leave the country, but the military stop us from leaving so we escape into the countryside. Eventually, we met a farmer who let us stay in his house along with three other strangers,the next day, we lost electricity, T.Vs, and radios; we survive by staying inside to cover the doors and windows. My step-mother wanted to leave but my father argues to stay unknown to us she and her step-son left us and we haven't heard of them since.
Now here I am in my room in the dark trying to a nap but something is preventing me to do so then I hear a knock, I look at the door and see my dad he has bags under his eyes he must not be sleeping well.
Me: Dad?
Dad: Hey, dinner is ready.
Me: Okay I'll be down there in a minute.
He nods before leaving me, he's been out of touch with me since she and her son left us he barely talks, it's unfair I'm his son, HIS SON! and treats me like I'm a stranger it frustrating but there's nothing I can do I try to talk to him and he doesn't engage me.

I sigh to myself and leave my room to eat dinner.

Michel: Hey, be nice if it weren't for him, Thomas, and his father we would be outside chased by the infected or worst turn.
Angie: Shut up Michel, god you are always happy along with your happy wife when you are not supposed to be happy, old men here keep optimistic about how everything and says everything is going to be alright when it's not and you point to Thomas father* always looking out for wife and son who is probably dead and when you see them they would probably eat your face off.
