OH! It's a shaggy dog story! I love it! Goodness I was scared for these two and the sort of post-apocalyptic world they seem to be living in. You put so much detail into the characters that I couldn't help but grit my teeth as whatever was chasing them drew closer. Excellent take on the prompt.
The post-apocalyptic vibe could have been just the hardship of these two characters and the way life kind of breaks down when you put too much pressure on it, so that was also an interesting dynamic that bolstered the tension.
