Im still alive but... 5
Well, to be honest there has been no changes in the situation in general. Theres no power, and our water was cut again, but we protested for a few days and it returned. Crime is still rampant, while the police have returned to work it seems like they arent doing much at all. The whole mess made people go mad and they are now stealing cars and mugging people in malls. In fact, they seem to have started kidnapping people now, so things have become a little worse than before. This is the reason that I havent been able to give you guys an update. Well, this and the fact that claro, the telephone company which provides my cellphone, seems to have joined in the general despair and now they hardly have signal in a lot of places, including where I live. If you go out you get mugged, if you stay in you get cut off from the world. Not that being cut off is a bad thing, since all news are about people getting murdered or corruption everywhere in the government. Stil, the supplies have stopped and you have to go to the malls to get food, but even having a phone means risking becoming a target for the thieves. Its gotten so bad even the cashiers at the burger king Im at (they give wifi, which is how Im posting this) are talking how yesterday a guy got stabbed in their parking lot even though he gave the thief his wallet and phone. It seems even the manager is trying to convince the owner to close earlier since no one wants to work at night. The worst part is that his area has power, so I dont know when this will all stop since getting the power back here didnt help at all.
Still, its not all negative. During the protests for water, the mayor promised they will start working in the communities around my area to fix the power in the 28 of this month, but by now I dont know if I should believe it. Sometimes its better to not expect much, and after months of halftruths, corruption and crime everywhere, I just cant bring myself to believe anything blindly. Still, part of me cant help but hope its true, even a glass of cold water you didnt have to risk you life to get would be an awesome gift from the heavens by now. Having electricity for the fridge would make it easier to buy in bulk and go out less too, still who knows what will happen.
About the game, I have been using my downtome to plan and refine the stories, and Im pretty happy with the results, although I still need to make the pictures, I think I have a good story that you will enjoy. I know I have been taking a long time to answer and posting about the situation, Im sorry about this but the situation is a little scary, however, since Im here today I will try to answer as many of the comments and messages you have sent me during these months as I can, since I dont know when I will dare to bring my tablet outside again. If I dont get to yours my apologies, but I will try to answer everything by today. Also, thank you for your support, interest in my game and for worrying about me and my family. With a little luck this will blow over soon.
