Apocalyptic stories are not zombies, nor are they very bad natural disasters. They are equivalent to the world of human beings hundreds of years from now. The whole process is a bit like a warm farming novel. The heroine has no space, but she keeps hoarding, hoarding, hoarding like a little hamster. The male protagonist is not greasy, has no machismo, and is very down-to-earth in his work.
