Skip If You Get Scared Easily

she walked in again flesh dripping off her face her mouth a fixed silent scream I look at the others do they not see an upright dead corpse? do they not smell her? I cannot eat this food now. my stepmother gets angry I think of what I could do to her. where to begin? The knife block beckons. I look around for my dad. It won’t be any good if someone saves her.

Eat the food first Caren, then when fully loaded with anger, the knife block is a must, very haunting and daunting, of course I ignored the caveats, love it, cheers David
