I can’t believe my
eyes! If that isn’t bad enough the thing is swallowing Josh whole, like a snake would. One big gulp and he’s gone. It lets out a big satisfying burp that near knocks me off my feet.
A tombstone appears near my feet.
What am I gonna tell Tiffany?
‘
Hey Tiff, how was your day? Oh by the way a big freaky cow plant ate your boyfriend’
I lose control….and try to beat it up.
Talk about fuckin’ stupid. What am i thinking? I should have ran but it just ate my best mate. I’m
pissed!
‘
Die you mother!’
Then it sunk in. My best mate was gone. Dead.
I start to cry, bawl actually.
I go inside and cry some more.
Tiffany’s home. She sees the cow plant but doesn’t seem to notice the big grey tombstone that contains her boyfriend’s dead body. Or rather what’s left of it.
She’s smiling. She’s doing the happy dance that Josh does when he comes home from work.
Oh fuck.
I should go out there.
‘
Hey Tiff’
“Hey Brand! Guess what! I just got promoted!’
‘oh….um that’s great but ah, there’s something I need to tell you’
‘Can it wait Brand, I’m really tired. I’ll talk to you in the morning, k?’
I’ll tell her in the morning, I need some sleep myself.
