REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 31: The Work Of Living
RAYNAThe morning after Lior's return, I woke to the sound of Sera laughing. For a few seconds, I remained beneath the blankets, listening. Her laughter had become one of the few sounds I never grew tired of hearing. It reminded me that despite everything the world had taken from us, my daughter was still capable of being happy.I got out of bed, pulled on my warm clothes, and followed the sound downstairs. Lior was sitting on the floor beside her, helping her arrange the little wooden animals he had made. The wooden rabbit she had given him before his journey was sitting among them."Mommy!" Sera called when she noticed me. "Look! Daddy brought my rabbit back."I smiled, glancing at Lior. "I can see that.""He kept it safe," she added proudly."I made a promise," Lior replied, lifting the rabbit and placing it in her hands. "And I intend to keep every promise I make to you."Sera hugged it against her chest before returning to her toys. I watched them for a moment, feeling something
REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 30: The Journey Home
RAYNAI checked the clock for the third time in less than ten minutes. Lior had promised to contact me before beginning the return journey, but the radio remained silent. The communications supervisor stood beside me, monitoring the frequency while I studied the map spread across the table. The expedition had already travelled farther than any team from the villa since the temperature collapsed. Although they had gathered useful information, I wasn't interested in extending the journey simply to see how much farther they could go. I wanted them home.I picked up the radio and pressed the transmission button. "Lior, this is Rayna. Do you copy?"Static filled the room. I waited a few seconds before trying again. "Lior, report your position." His voice finally came through. "We're preparing to leave the junction now."I immediately straightened. "What's your assessment?""The road ahead is becoming increasingly difficult to navigate. There's a heavy accumulation of snow along the edges
REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 29:voices Beyond The Snow
RAYNAI stood in the communications room with the radio pressed against my ear, listening to the faint static that had filled the room for the past several minutes. The expedition had been on the road for hours, and although Lior had checked in regularly, I couldn't completely relax. Every time the radio went silent, my attention returned to it.The last transmission had confirmed that the team was still moving along the northern route. The road was difficult, but the SUV was handling the conditions. Leo had also reported that they had passed the abandoned vehicle near the old junction without finding anyone inside.I glanced at the map spread across the table. Their current position was farther from the villa than I would have preferred, but they were still within the limits we had agreed on."Any update?" the security supervisor asked as he entered."Not yet."He looked at the radio before turning his attention to the map. "The last report was positive. They should be approaching
REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 28: THE ROAD INTO THE UNKNOWN
RAYNAThe first journey began before sunrise. I stood in the underground garage, watching Lior inspect the modified SUV for the third time. The vehicle had been reinforced before the worst of the cold arrived, but weeks of freezing temperatures had taken their toll. Its tires had been replaced with heavy-duty winter ones, the engine had received additional protection, and the interior had been stocked with emergency blankets and heating equipment. Even then, I knew none of those preparations could guarantee our safety outside the villa.Lior closed the hood and turned toward me. “The engine is ready. I've checked the battery, the fuel lines, and the heating system. We also have enough fuel for the journey back, provided we don't waste it.”“Provided the road is still passable,” I reminded him.“That's why we're taking the northern route. It's longer, but the main highway is more exposed. The northern road has fewer open stretches, and the trees should offer some protection from the
REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 27: The First Journey
RAYNAThe radio transmission played in my mind long after the command room had emptied. Three broken words had been clear enough to understand… survivors, shelter, and medical station. The coordinates were incomplete, but they gave us something we hadn't possessed since the apocalypse began, a possible destination beyond the mountain. I stood over the map on the command-room table, studying the southern district while Lior examined the signal report beside me. “The transmission came from somewhere around here,” he said, pointing to a section several kilometres beyond the old highway. “If the coordinates are accurate, there's a medical facility in that area.” I looked at the marked roads. “And how much of the route is still accessible?” “We don't know. The main highway is probably buried, and the smaller roads may be worse.” “Then we find out before sending anyone.” He nodded. “I expected you to say that.” I glanced at him. “You sound disappointed.” “I was hoping you would sugges
REBORN THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE ICE AGE APOCALYPSE 26: The World We Build
RAYNAThree weeks passed before the storm gave us an entire day of silence. I noticed it before anyone said anything because I had grown too accustomed to the wind beating against the villa. That morning, I opened my eyes and heard nothing, no rattling shutters, no ice striking the reinforced windows, no distant groaning from the roof, just Sera breathing softly beside me and the steady hum of heat moving through the walls. I slipped out of bed and walked to the window. The mountains were buried beneath endless white, but for the first time in weeks, the sky was clear. Pale sunlight stretched across the snow, turning the frozen world almost beautiful. Almost. “You're doing that thing again,” Lior said behind me. I turned. He stood in the doorway with two mugs in his hands. “What thing?” “Staring outside like you're planning to fight the weather personally.” I accepted the mug he offered me. “Maybe I am.” “My money is on you.” I laughed quietly. “You shouldn't encourage me.” “Sera
