Luna
Where is it? I can’t see it.
Zeal
Because it’s actually just a bunch of very small particles that we can’t observe with our eyes.
Luna
What does it do then?
Zeal
...
...These small particles would travel faster then a bullet and shoot through almost everything in their way, it can go through the space between our skin, gaps between our organ’s tissue, and break every little chains in our cells call DNA.
Luna
So...it’s a bad thing right?
Zeal
Actually, Radiation can do so much things that we can never imagined, but this time... Yes, it’s very, very bad.
Luna
...Can we recover our...eh... DNA?
Zeal
You can, those newspaper said that all kids can. But the grown up can’t, their DNA can not regenerate anymore...
Luna
Can you?
Zeal
(Smiled at Luna)
...I am trying to.
...
Luna
...Are you gonna die?
Zeal
...I am trying not to.
Zeal
(Looked away and stood up to cover Luna with blanket.)
Listen, We got to get up early tomorrow before the dogs wake up, lets call it a night, okay Luna?
Luna
(Closing her eyes.)
I hope you can recover your DMA.
Zeal
...Good night Luna.
