On the second bite of the sweet cake my stomach started to ache. I put the fork down and put the cake back into the fridge. I sigh, food doesn't taste that great anymore since the war began. I belch as I rub my stomach, "I really need to be
more ladylike" I tell myself. I went back into the hallway, leaving the kitchen light on for a source of light so I could get back to my room. Once I reach my door I noticed something was off, some of the doors were open that had been shut when I came down the hallway previously. I called out for Chris even though I knew he was gone. I brush it off and kept going to my room. Something was irritating the back of my leg, it felt like a burning sensation. I walked into my room and turned the light on. I froze, a huge animal stood outside my window, staring directly inside. I quickly shut off the light and ran out of my room. I ran into back into the kitchen and grabbed the landline on the wall next to the microwave. I dialed Chris's number as fast as I could but all I can hear on the other end was static.
