When I met Bissa, she was selling brainburgers and bile shakes at horribly inflated prices.
I had more than blown my meal allowance from work, paying twenty-plus bucks for gray beef patties, a green milkshake, and watered down ketchup. I didn't care. I kept returning to the counter, finding one excuse after another to talk to her, even if our conversation was less than romantic.
"Is something wrong with your brainburger?" she asked when I returned yet again.
I probably sounded like a zombie myself as I unknotted my tongue enough to stammer, "It's delicious."
She stared at me, waiting. Behind her, other employees of the ZombieLand Snack Shack scurried about, swapping baskets in the deep fryer and wrapping uniformly gray meat products in wax paper. The man with the "Manager" badge even adopted an exaggerated limp, mimicking the slow shuffle of the walking dead as he went from table to table.
Of course, the Snack Shack was one of the few places in ZombieLand where actual zombies were forbidden. The health inspectors would shut down the whole park if a zombie came within twenty feet of the restaurant.
