Rich laughed a little at that while moving over to the medical table. He grabbed some hand sanitzer and wiped his hands down. "Ya know, I was thinking... maybe we could stay here. Wait until the military comes in and clears out everything. We've got some food, medical supplies, barricade, a place to sleep..."
"Really..? I don't know, I mean, Katherine is still out there..." she said, unsure.
"Yeah, you're right. I'm just not lookin' forward to headin' back out there," Rich said, his gaze drifting to the barricaded back door. Anna never responded and instead wandered off to wake the kid up.

She wanted to make sure he cousin and her family was safe, but at the same time, she wanted what was best for Rich and Jimmy. Staying in the Arcade seemed like it was the best thing to do, for their sake as well as her own. She couldn't respond to Rich, she didn't know what to say.
Instead, she'd woke Jimmy up to ready him for some kind of breakfast. As she gently nudged him, he'd grumbled himself awake and looked up at Anna's face.
"Mornin'...." he said, groggily. Anna smiled down at him. "Mornin', kiddo. C'mon, it's time to get up, get something to eat," she informed him.
The little boy got up, wrapping himself up in the photobooth curtain as he shuffled around the counter to look around. His light brown hair was bunched up on one side of his head and his eyes were squinted.
"Pfft...." Anna snorted, smiling widely at the boy. "Mornin' Rich," he said, yawning widely.

"Mornin' Jimmy," Rich said, his foot hitting a box he hadn't noticed before. "Hey, lost and found," he said while started to search the box.
Meanwhile, Anna had been sorting through the food at the counter asking Jimmy what he was in the mood to eat. The result, frozen pizza and cheetos with a dash of candy and soda. Anna herself, skipped breakfast.
"Find anything useful?" she asked Rich.
"Yeah, a jacket," he said, pulling up a long sleeve leather jacket. "Check it out," Rich said while putting it on. "Not bad, good fit, keeps me safe and warm. Whatcha think?"
"Looks good, hopefully the person that lost it doesn't have some terrible contagious body herpes or anything," she joked.
"What's herpes?" Jimmy suddenly asked, taking a bite of his pizza.
"It's sorta like buttpox, cept on the other side," Rich explained.
The boy giggled loudly and shrieked out a: "Gross!"

Anna checked her watch and sighed, rubbing at the back of her neck. "It's already a little passed one. What're we gonna do?" she asked Rich, occasionally glancing over at Jimmy whom was finishing up his meal.
"Aww we're leaving? I wanna stay, I still gots money for the games!" he whined.
"Well... we could go back to the apartment, see if we find anything. If not, we could make a break for it. Find a road and keep going till all this is behind us," Rich suggested.
Anna looked down. "I have this feeling that we should just get out of the city....for your and Jimmy's sake. I mean, maybe I can get y'all out and come back for Katherine?" she pondered aloud.
Rich sauntered over to her. "S'a big city Anna..." he said lowly.
"Yeah, a big, dangerous city. My first priority as an officer of the law is to protect civilians. That's you and Jimmy. F*ck err'one else," she said.
"We should still stop by your apartment, it's gonna be a hard trip out."
"I suppose you're right...Alright, let's get packing then," she said. "C'mon Jimmy, we're going to my apartment," she said.
"Aww..." he moaned.
"I have a Gameboy Color there," she told him.
"Alright!"

With all their supplies packed away, and a few snacks taken along for the trip, Anna and Rich pushed aside the rear barricade. They stood there at the door for a few minutes, mustering up the courage to leave before one of them finally reached out and opened the door.
"Stay close Jimmy."
[Richard, Anna, and Jimmy have left the Arcade]
