Lunch
So I was like eating at Recharge, trying to take it easy during my lunch break.
And then I saw IT walk outside. IT was like some weird midget MONSTER. I wasn’t sure if it was human or not for a full moment. It SEEMED human. It had arms and legs and it even had clothes on so it couldn’t be like some chimpanzee escaped from the zoo. It wasn’t like any animal I’ve ever seen though, it was some sort of weird beast.
Slowly though, I realized, it wasn’t animal, it was a human, it was just a REALLY UGLY HUMAN. Which can be hard to tell sometimes, BUT ANYWAYS: the reason it had set me off for so long was because that this “HUMAN” was a twelve year-old kid who looked as though it had been smoking for eleven. And I’m going to tentatively use the pronoun “she” cause “she” had a pink backpack and everything. Her face however was wrinkled and sagged and gaunt and black. Most of her skin was white, but around her eyes there were circles of black like she hadn’t slept for weeks.
It was like all those horror movies with some creepy girl wandering around haunting the actors. Except this girl was actually here. Not that she seemed to be haunting ME though, she was just walking by, but I SWEAR, looking at her sent CHILLS down my spine.
And that is why I love living in New York.
